The Immortal God of War

Chapter 9 Showdown, stop pretending

After leaving Old Man Xiang's house, Liu Chi went straight to the center of the imperial capital. The Imperial College was not exclusive to the nobility, so its location was almost in the center of the imperial capital, while the royal nobles were all in the north, and the slums and civilian areas were just a small area in the southwest of the imperial capital.

Clean streets, patrolling soldiers. This is the first time Liu Chi and I have been here in five years. On the other side of Cheng Liang’s metal fence is a white high-rise building with a few pedestrians walking inside.

At the southwest gate of the Imperial Academy, Mu Liuchi showed the jade token and walked in directly.

I walked in one direction without stopping. I didn't recognize any of the buildings here. Could it be that Liu Chi knew them? Did he know where Qinglin lived?

Soon my doubts were dispelled, and looking up from where Liu Chi had stopped, it suddenly dawned on me that he had already written down what he had seen yesterday.

The curtain was slightly pulled, and Qingyan happened to look down. Their eyes met, and soon the curtain was pulled closed.

Liu Chi frowned and looked in that direction. A white light rose from the ground in front of him and old man Qinglin appeared.

Liu Chi lowered his gaze and met old man Qinglin's.

"My friend is here? Oh, yes! This is a reward."

Qinglin smiled and handed over a diamond coin.

Of course I knew how valuable a diamond coin was. Liu Chi did not take the diamond coin, but he said something that surprised me.

"what do you want from me?"

Indeed, I think Qinglin must have his own calculations for treating Liuchi in this way, but his relationship with Liuchi was not good at the moment, so it was inconvenient for him to speak up.

Qinglin smiled, and saw white light rising under the feet of the two people, and the scene changed to a room inside.

"Young friend! Come and sit down." Qinglin walked to the small tea table and sat down, taking a cup from the tea basket with his hand.

By the time Liu Chi sat down, Qinglin had already poured tea into the cup he had just taken out.

"In fact, I really value talent. Xiang Linfeng has already told me all the magic you created. I'm curious, what is the relationship between these things and your leaving the Mu family? Did you learn them before you left? Or~?"

Qinglin's expression made it seem like he was just asking a simple question, but I knew it was a more serious question, and I didn't know how Liu Chi would answer.

"What do you think?" Liu Chi's eyes suddenly became sharp and he smiled at Qinglin. This also scared me. It was the first time that Liu Chi showed such an evil smile.

"Hahaha~ It seems that I have figured it out, but it's a pity to waste such a good piece of material like you." Qinglin still looked at me with a smile, and there seemed to be a hint of coldness in his tone.

"Do you want to kill me?" Liu Chi asked.

"Hehe~ I can not kill you, but you have to help me do something!" After laughing dryly twice, Qinglin stopped laughing and spoke to me in a commanding tone.

"Okay, but you have to do me a favor first!"

"What's the deal?"

"Go to Xianglinfeng's house."

"Oh?"

The two men stood up, and with a flash of light under their feet, they were directly teleported to the backyard of Old Man Xiang's house.

"Chichihe~? Why are you here?" Old man Xiang raised his head and looked in my direction, and finally locked his eyes on Qinglin.

"Is it not okay to come and see my lovely junior brother? Who was the shameless one to come to me first?"

Obviously, the relationship between these two people surprised me. Although they are brothers from the same school, their living environments are completely different.

"Mr. Xiang, I'm sorry for all these years."

Old man Xiang looked at me with some confusion, and his expression gradually changed from confusion to excitement.

"I knew that anyone who could create advanced magic on his own must not be a fool."

I was stunned for a moment. I was the only one among the two old men who thought Liu Chi was a fool. Could it be that Liu Chi was playing dumb even when he was alone?

Obviously I can't accept that Liu Chi is playing dumb. A more reasonable explanation would be that he was provoked.

During the five years we spent together, I was always thinking about Liu Chi. If he was really pretending to be stupid, I think it would be too scary.

"I want to take her away." Liu Chi pointed at the water ball.

"Chi Chi's matter~Okay, let's go!"

"Mr. Xiang, this is the key to my house. It's the second house on that street in the slums." Mu Liuchi handed the shiny iron key to Mr. Xiang.

"This~? I understand."

"I just think it's not worth throwing it away. Please lend me some magic power now."

"What do you want magic for?" As he said that, Old Man Xiang stretched out his left hand towards me, and a light blue mist-like substance appeared in the palm of his hand.

"I don't know if my water elemental magic is what you want."

The mist-like magic power was forced into my body by old man Xiang.

"It seems that the rumors about you are true."

"Magic insulator? I know." Liu Chi said with a smile, "So old man Xiang, can you use some strength?"

Maybe this sentence worked, I felt the force pressing on my body became a little stronger.

Liu Chi closed his eyes and felt the magic power. I realized that he gathered some knowledge with magic power.

"These should be it." Liu Chi returned the magic power gathered in his hands to old man Xiang.

"This, what is this~?" Old man Xiang looked very surprised.

"What is it?" Qinglin's voice sounded.

"Nothing, I just wanted to tell Mr. Xiang about my family situation so he can help me clean it up."

Of course I knew that Liu Chi was lying. He actually gave the words he created to old man Xiang.

Thinking back to when I first came to this new world, it took me more than half a year to learn the common language of this world. However, in Liu Chi's memory, there is also a language created by Liu Chi himself. As far as I know, everything that Liu Chi wrote down personally was written in self-created characters. Although this kind of characters has no pronunciation, they all have their own meanings, and some expressions are even better than the current common characters.

In this way, I understood what Liu Chi meant. This was equivalent to directly giving all of his notes to Old Man Xiang, provided that Old Man Xiang went to the room to look for them.

"Yes, Chi Chi's house is a mess. Now I have something to do, so it's only right for me to help clean it up."

I observed Qinglin, and his expression clearly told me that he didn't believe it.

"Do you think that a person who can barely afford to eat has a treasure at home?" Liu turned her head slightly and looked up at Qinglin.

Due to long-term malnutrition, the 16-year-old Liu Chi, thanks to his parents' excellent genes, is just over 160cm tall. Looking at Qinglin who is nearly 190cm tall, he naturally looks up at him.

"Haha~ My friend, you are too polite. If there is nothing else, we can leave now."

Old man Xiang nodded to Liu Chi.

"Goodbye!"

As the white light rose from under their feet, Liu Chi and his group returned to Qinglin's residence.

"The thing you want me to do is this girl?"

"Well, I think it shouldn't be difficult for you to find out the origins of an ordinary girl."

"Oh~ that's all?"

"Correct."
