"Ah … I'm sorry- it's all because of me- I pissed off the dragon, and I dragged you down with me." Qiqi said apologetically- Lin Yi had helped her time and time again- how could she not be touched? Now that she thought about it, Qiqi felt guilty. Lin Yi didn't owe her anything, so why was he helping her again and again?
"It's nothing- even if it didn't throw me down, I'd jump down myself to find you." Lin Yi said, "Our team came together- we couldn't just leave you here alone, could we?"
"Right, how's Zhang Naipao?" Qiqi asked.
"He got revenge for you," Lin Yi didn't go into specifics, but Qiqi should be able to understand.
As expected, Qiqi's mouth opened in shock- Lin Yi's strength was beyond her expectations- but it made sense, after all, when hadn't Lin Yi crushed his opponents beneath his feet?
"Yeah …" Qiqi nodded, but thinking about how she failed to get the scale from the Five Malefic Dragon, she couldn't help but feel a little down.
Little Nine's condition was getting worse- it wasn't that serious before, but it had been getting worse and worse for the past year, and Qiqi had been running around looking for medicine and ways to cure Little Nine!
Qiqi's house was a large assassin organization, but it was only one of the largest in the common world. If it weren't for Lil 'Nine's illness, they'd never have any contact with the training world. But in order to cure Lil' Nine's illness, Qiqi had no choice but to step into an unknown territory.
"What's wrong?" Lin Yi asked, seeing the heavy look on Qiqi's face.
"It's nothing … I didn't get what I wanted from the test …" Qiqi sighed.
"You want to go ask the dragon for its scale?" Lin Yi asked, a little moved.
"Yeah, I wanted to talk to it, but it didn't talk to me- I thought it was asleep, so I sneakily went to pluck one off, but it was just pretending to sleep! It grabbed me and threw me off the cliff …" Qiqi said, a little troubled.
"Ugh … …" Lin Yi felt that Qiqi's actions were a bit crazy, but Lin Yi hadn't fought the Five Malefic Dragon himself. Who would've thought that it was that strong? Qiqi didn't know how strong the dragon was either.
"Forget it, I'll think of another way." Qiqi sat on the ground, hugging her legs. That was what she said, but anyone could see the helplessness in her eyes.
"Do you really need the scales of the Five Evils Dragon?" Lin Yi's heart softened as he asked.
"As long as it's something from the dragon's claw, it doesn't have to be a scale- wouldn't it be even more pissed off if we cut off a piece of meat?" Qiqi said.
"If it's something else from the dragon's claw, then what about this?" Lin Yi took out the nail he'd collected from the Five Malefic Dragon and showed it to Qiqi.
"This is … …" Qiqi blinked.
"This is a nail from the Five Malefic Dragon. I fought it before, and it used its nail to stab a friend of mine, but the nail broke, so I kept it." Lin Yi said.
"Ah?" Qiqi was pleasantly surprised- she didn't think that the nail would be in Lin Yi's hands. Did this mean that this trip wasn't a waste? Qiqi wanted to take the nail from Lin Yi, but then remembered how precious it was. She couldn't just take something from Lin Yi for free. "I … I don't have anything to trade with you … …"
"You'll trade yourself then." Lin Yi said seriously, holding back his laughter.
"Ah!" Qiqi paused, not expecting a condition like this from Lin Yi. She didn't know what to do, "Can … Can't you change the condition? I can pay on credit … …"
"Where would I find you if you ran away?" Lin Yi said.
"I … …" Qiqi went silent. That was right- where would Lin Yi go to find her if she ran? Most importantly, Qiqi really did want that nail from Lin Yi's hand. With that, Lil 'Jiu's illness could be cured.
"Haha, I'm just messing with you." Lin Yi put the nail in Qiqi's hand, smiling. "Take it, it's a gift to you. Don't always think so badly of people!"
Qiqi took the nail from Lin Yi's hand, unable to hold back the tears that started falling down her cheeks.
"Why're you crying again? Wasn't I just joking … … "Lin Yi didn't know what to say as he looked at Qiqi's tear-stained face.
"No … …" Qiqi shook her head. "Lin Yi, you're a good person … I … I won't kill you … But there's someone else in my heart already. I'll repay you in other ways."
"Is this a good person card?" Lin Yi smiled, not caring. "But a good person card is a good person card."
"Thank you!" Qiqi smiled through her tears.
"How do I use this?" Lin Yi couldn't imagine how the nail could be used to cure a disease. "Do I just eat it?"
"I don't know, I asked around for a long time and looked through a lot of ancient books before I found out about the use of the claw." Qiqi said. "How do you use it … You eat it, I guess?"
"Alright, pretend I didn't ask." Lin Yi said. "Let's get ready and go back to safety. Zhao Qikun and the others are probably getting impatient."
"Alright … But how are we going to get up?" Qiqi looked up and saw how high the cliff was. The height gave her a fright. There was no way they could jump up.
"I've come down once with someone before, and there are climbing marks on the cliff over there. We just need to follow the marks and jump up." Lin Yi said, pointing in a direction not far away.
"That's good." Qiqi breathed out in relief- she really wouldn't know how to get up there otherwise. She was just good at qinggong, but no matter how good she was, she couldn't jump that high!
Lin Yi brought Qiqi to the place where he and Tian Chan had jumped. Lin Yi decided to give it a try, and so he jumped towards the first spot Tian Chan made.
