But in Qiqi's ears, that wasn't the case. Many years ago, on a deserted island, someone had said the exact same thing to her while she was eating grilled fish!
Qiqi was already in a daze from the Five Malevolence Qi, and was on the verge of fainting. She was imagining herself back on that deserted island, with Ah Yi big bro beside her, grilling fish for her …
"Ah Yi big bro, I believe you … You'll bring Xiao Qi back …" Qiqi murmured …
"What?!" Lin Yi's body froze as if he'd been struck by lightning. He raised his head and stared at Qiqi, stunned! Qiqi's voice was soft, but it was clear in this empty cliff. "Ah Yi big bro" had touched Lin Yi's most sensitive heartstrings. It'd been so long since he'd heard those words!
But, this person in front of him … Lin Yi couldn't believe it … This person in front of him … Could she be his shifu's daughter, Yang Xiaoxiao! His childhood sweetheart … But wasn't she called Yang Xiaoxiao? Why was she Qiqi now?
"Xiaoxiao, why'd you change your name?" Lin Yi asked.
"Xiaoxiao doesn't sound nice. Ah Yi big bro, you like to call me Xiao Qi, so I'll call myself Qiqi …" Qiqi was a little confused as well, not sure if she was the little Yang Xiaoxiao or the grown up Qiqi …
Today was the last day of the twenty days- unless it was a practitioner like Lin Yi, Zhang Naipao, or Tian Chan, they'd be unconscious on the twentieth day!
Yes, she was Yang Xiaoxiao! Lin Yi didn't doubt it anymore.
Lin Yi looked at Qiqi's pale face. That cool girl who bit the hand that fed her had become loyalty to him in Lin Yi's eyes, and all of Lin Yi's resentment towards her vanished in an instant!
Think about it, what was wrong with a girl protecting her chastity for the person she liked? Lin Yi saw her body. It was normal for her to be angry, but … Lin Yi smiled bitterly. He didn't expect things to be so coincidental!
That's right, Xiao Qi and Qi Qi clearly meant the same thing. Why didn't I think of it before? Perhaps his first impression was the strongest, so he didn't think in this direction …
Qiqi used to be very cute, but she wasn't as cool and pretty as she was now. This was also why Lin Yi didn't recognize her. It was hard to connect a cute girl with a cool girl …
But thinking about it, Qiqi had been trained as an assassin for so many years- she'd have no one to rely on after he left, and she still had to take care of Little Jiu. Of course she'd have to be strong! Therefore, it was reasonable for his personality to change and his dressing style to change as well.
"Xiao Qi, don't worry. Big Brother Ah Yi won't let anything happen to you. We'll definitely get through this trouble safely!" Lin Yi looked at Qiqi and clenched his fist. He took a deep breath and said solemnly. This was Lin Yi's promise- no matter what, he wouldn't let anything happen to Qiqi!
Fortunately, Qiqi was a physical practitioner, and with the Five Malevolence Qi in her body, it wouldn't cause her to go berserk. She'd just faint, unlike spiritual practitioners who'd mess up their qi.
Looking at the cliff, Lin Yi fell into deep thought- Lin Yi had thought of everything he could think of, but there was nothing he could do …
Outside the test grounds, on the teleportation formation. Kang Ming Ming was about to fall asleep as he stared at it. Ever since Qikun and the other three came out, no one else had come out. It made sense that those who hadn't come out by now wouldn't be able to make it out alive.
On the evening of the twentieth day, Kang Ming Ming shook his head and got up to report to Silkworm Shapeshifter. No one else had come out of the teleportation formation, but he still had to report to Silkworm Shapeshifter …
In actuality, even if Kang Ming Ming hadn't come, Tian Chan would still be worried. Kang Ming Ming's absence meant that no one else had come out of the teleportation formation. Evidently, Lin Yi hadn't come out, and this made Tian Chan feel uneasy!
Why would she care about someone so much? Tian Chan didn't know, but she couldn't help but feel unhappy if she didn't see Lin Yi come out safely.
Of course, the Xuanchen and Xuanzhen elders were worried as well- it had been twenty days, and there was still no news of Naipao. The two came to Silkworm Shapeshifter's palace once more.
"Tian Chan greets Master, Uncle!" Tian Chan had something on her mind, but she couldn't be rude.
"Still no news of Naipao?" The Xuanchen elder waved his hand, telling Tian Chan not to be so courteous.
"Martial Uncle, there's no news yet." Tian Chan shook her head. The Xuanchen elder didn't think much of her sullen look, thinking that she was worried about Naipao as well.
"What's going on? So many people who aren't as strong as him have come out, why isn't he out yet? " The Xuanchen elder knew that Tian Chan wouldn't hide the news of Naipao, but he still came to ask himself. The news he got was unsurprisingly that Naipao hadn't come out.
"Could he be trapped in a safe place? The spirit beasts have been rampaging for the past two days- Naipao might not dare to leave … "The Xuanzhen elder sighed and analyzed.
"Hm, that's possible!" The Xuanchen elder's face softened after hearing this. He thought for a while and turned to Tian Chan, "How about this, Tian Chan, go to the Five Element Barrens again and look for Naipao. If he's really inside, bring him out!"
"Me? Go to the Five Element Barrens again? "Tian Chan pointed at herself and looked at the Xuanchen elder, stunned! At this moment, Tian Chan's heart was beating furiously. She almost agreed happily, but logic told her that she couldn't do that.
"That's right!" The Xuanchen elder nodded, "Go find Naipao. Currently, only you are immune to the Five Element Barrens."
"Isn't that a little dangerous?" The Xuanzhen elder didn't agree, "Although Tian Chan is immune to the Five Element Barrens, the spirit beasts are rampaging right now. If she goes, she'll probably be in danger, right?"
"Of course there will be danger, but what if something happens to Naipao?" The Xuanchen elder waved his hand and said, "Second Brother, this isn't the time to be soft-hearted. I know that Tian Chan is your disciple, but she's also my disciple niece. Although you've been hiding this from me, I've always treated her as my disciple!"
