"Are you alright?" Seeing Nie Li stand up, Tian Zijin asked. There was still a trace of inquiry in her words. She clearly didn't expect Nie Li to be poisoned so quickly. In fact, this was all thanks to this body and the Magic Core. He didn't know what kind of monster it had transformed him into.
"It's fine. And why do you want me to take you away? " Nie Li replied, then asked. It seemed that Tian Zijin's life in the City Lord's Mansion was pretty good, and the others were also very polite to him. Why did she want to leave?
"I don't know, but the current Zhou Qing has become so unfamiliar. He didn't save my father back then, and now he's under Zhang Junshi." Tian Zijin's emotions suddenly went out of control. Nie Li hurriedly shook her shoulder to wake her up.
"Sorry, I lost my composure." Tian Zijin's expression was absent-minded, but she was still a little clear-headed. Nie Li couldn't say anything. Could it be that he knew? Did he see what happened that day?
Nie Li knew that he couldn't say it, but Tian Zijin said that Zhou Qing was under Zhang Junshi. This was also within Nie Li's expectations. This also proved that the two of them were in contact before. Then, the disappearance of the woman in the city was probably related to the two of them.
However, when he saw Tian Zijin, Nie Li thought of another matter. When he saved Tian Zijin, were those two purely trying to kidnap her to threaten Tian Lei, or were they also one of their targets?
Furthermore, those two people were weak and could be killed by him. How could they easily break into the Tian Mansion? Zhou Qing was probably behind it. Could he be so vicious to Tian Zijin? Nie Li didn't want to tell Tian Zijin about this. Her father's departure had already dealt her a heavy blow. If he said that Zhou Qing had ulterior motives towards her at this time, she would probably collapse.
"But now that it's like this, let alone taking you away. It's very dangerous to go out alone. " Nie Li expressed his worries. He couldn't take Tian Zijin away. Originally, he was here to investigate, but he didn't expect such a thing to happen.
"It's fine. Maybe my mood hasn't been right recently." Tian Zijin didn't feel any disappointment because of Nie Li's words. She was the one who asked him for help. He didn't have any obligation to save her. Now that he was here, his feelings were already very deep.
"Bear with it for a while longer. I'll bring you out." Nie Li still made a promise to Tian Zijin. He didn't want the City Lord's Mansion to destroy Tian Zijin's kindness and gentleness. Perhaps she wasn't someone important to him, but the help she'd given him before, even if it was insignificant, was enough to be considered a friend.
Moreover, Zhang Junshi was a dangerous person. It was not safe to leave Tian Zijin here. If Zhou Qing really lost his mind and betrayed Tian Zijin, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"I believe you." Tian Zijin's eyes also lit up. She doesn't know why she requested to save Nie Li. Maybe it's the same as back then. He's her hero!
"You stay here tonight. You can leave after the commotion outside has stopped!" After Tian Zijin finished speaking, she passed a set of bedding to Nie Li, indicating that he could stay here for the night.
Just the thought of a man and a woman being in the same room together was too much. However, Nie Li didn't feel awkward when it came to Tian Zijin. He felt that she was like an elder sister to him. Nie Li casually took it. Actually, he was preparing to train tonight, but he didn't want to disappoint Tian Zijin.
"Zijin, are you alright?!" Zhou Qing's voice rang out. Through the moonlight, they could see his figure outside the window. Nie Li and Tian Zijin's hearts were in their throats.
"I'm fine, you can leave!" Tian Zijin tried her best to remain calm. Her voice was even trembling, probably from anger and worry.
"Zijin, it's fine now! Don't cry. " Zhou Qing's voice was a little anxious. Perhaps because Tian Zijin's voice was trembling, he thought that she was already crying. Furthermore, he had already walked to the door and had the thought of coming in.
"Leave, don't come in. I don't want to see you for the time being. " Tian Zijin shouted. She didn't want Zhou Qing to come in because she was afraid that he would discover Nie Li's existence. At that time, no matter how she explained, Nie Li would be in greater danger.
"Okay, then I'll leave." Zhou Qing's voice was a little low. He turned around and left. The outside returned to its previous calm. The breathing of the two people in the room could be heard clearly. p
"Nie Li, this question is very abrupt. I don't know if I can ask you." Tian Zijin opened her mouth to speak. Perhaps it was because there was someone beside her that she wanted to pour out her suppressed emotions.
"Ask away!" Nie Li could vaguely guess what she wanted to ask. He hesitated for a moment and felt that he could face this question head-on.
"When you lost your closest family member, what were your thoughts at that time? I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but when I found out that my father was dead, I thought of committing suicide. "Tian Zijin asked. Nie Li knew that she needed the strength of her heart.
"Me! I want to live. I believe that their spirits in heaven will definitely hope that we can live well, have a family, and live a happy life. "Nie Li lied. He decided to lie to Tian Zijin.
At this moment, Tian Zijin needed the courage to face her father's departure. A person who had accompanied her for many years had left, but she was powerless. Nie Li was very clear about this kind of pain.
Thoughts? At that time, he only wanted to become stronger, to kill, to take revenge, to become stronger. At that time, his originally sick heart became even more twisted. It was a fanatical pursuit of strength. This was something that Nie Li could not deny. When he was crippled, he had already begun to thirst for strength.
"Live? I will work hard. As you said. " Tian Zijin's voice finally had a big fluctuation, making Nie Li feel that the person in front of him was a living person.
A moment later, Tian Zijin's breathing became calm and rhythmic. Nie Li breathed a sigh of relief. This meant that Tian Zijin had listened to his words. He never thought that there would be a time when he saved someone. Just thinking about it made him feel a little strange.
Nie Li did not sleep. He only closed his eyes and operated his cultivation technique. After a while, he would leave. After estimating the time, Nie Li quietly stood up and walked to the window. He had already gotten used to his right leg. Although he was still limping, it didn't affect him much. It was just that when he walked, it would be a little bumpy.
As for Qing Gong, the Incomplete Devil Art made up for it. Therefore, Nie Li's footsteps were still heavy and light. Looking at the sky outside, it was still dark, but the moonlight illuminated everything in front of him. Nie Li carefully observed.
After discovering that there was no one, he left through the window, walked through the corridor, and walked to the front yard. There were still a few guards on duty. Obviously, the impact of this matter was not small. Nie Li spent a lot of effort to escape outside. There were no traces of the patrolling guards outside.
Letting out a long breath, Nie Li walked out from a small corner and prepared to leave. "Stop." A light voice made Nie Li's body stiffen. He never thought that he would be discovered. Where is he?
Nie Li lowered his head and quietly looked around. He found that there was no place to hide. The only place was the corner where he hid when he came in. That was where he looked.
No one spoke, and no one moved. Nie Li stood in the middle of the street. His thin shadow was long, and his hair fluttered in the wind from time to time.
"Da Da Da" Footsteps sounded. Nie Li's hand was already on his waist. His internal force began to operate. His essence, energy, and spirit instantly gathered. As long as the other party made any movements, this blade would not show any mercy.
Looking at a figure slowly approaching from the side. Looking at the shadow, it should be a man. His hands were naturally hanging down. Obviously, there was no defense. Nie Li looked up and found that it was Wang Zhi.
His essence, energy, and spirit were instantly released. Wang Zhi walked in front of Nie Li and looked at the ghost mask. Wang Zhi's expression did not change. "Nie Li, you have guts!" Wang Zhi said softly.
"How did you recognize me?" Nie Li felt that he had no flaws. He was wearing black clothes, ghost mask, and even his hidden disease was well hidden. How did he find him?
"Blade Intent. You have a blade intent on your body. A blade intent that belongs to you." Wang Zhi said. Nie Li had his own blade intent. In the last competition, a little was exposed. After today's comprehension, it was even more condensed.
Therefore, this blade intent had not completely dissipated. Wang Zhi's realm was high, so he could discover it immediately. Therefore, he could discover it. If there was no blade intent, Wang Zhi could quickly determine Nie Li's identity.
"Blade intent? What is that?" Nie Li heard this new word. His father did not teach him, probably because he did not have the time. He did not have the time to teach him and had already left.
"Blade intent is quite complicated. I don't study the path of the blade, so I don't know much about it. If I have the chance to meet a blade expert in the future, perhaps I will know a little." Although Wang Zhi said this, he was more uncertain in his heart. There were countless people in the martial arts world. How many people could comprehend blade intent? Nie Li was able to comprehend blade intent at the Blood Transformation Realm. His future achievements were limitless.
"However, this kind of thing is a blade intent that all blade artists yearn for. It is very important for your future path." Wang Zhi continued. Blade intent was very rare. This was the first time Wang Zhi had seen such a young person with blade intent.
Moreover, he was a country boy from a remote area. He had no background, no teacher, only a blade, killing martial arts, and a heart for revenge. If this talent was known by those geniuses in the north, they would probably be jealous.
"So it's like this!" Hearing Wang Zhi's words, Nie Li only understood half of it. However, the blade intent that Wang Zhi spoke of should be the wonderful feeling that he comprehended today.
However, that feeling was really wonderful. The blade was him, and he was the blade. If he could enter this realm in battle, his blade arts would probably be more powerful.
"It's not good to stay here for long. Let's leave first!" Wang Zhi looked around and pulled Nie Li.
Nie Li also knew that this was not the place to talk. He followed Wang Zhi and left. Passing through a dark alley, they arrived at a remote hut. There were three thatched huts. It was very simple and crude. No one would have thought that the world famous Patrol Envoy would live in such a place.
"Let's go inside." Wang Zhi pushed open the door. The candlelight inside was lit. Clearly, someone had been here in advance.
