"This person feels very strong."
The gaze fixed on the master was filled with murderous intent.
"Could it be Jing Zhimei? Or Mo Haoxuan?"
Qin Qin, acting as though she had noticed nothing, pushed open the door and entered the cake shop, bought a cake, entered her car, and that watching eye was still lurking in the shadows, keeping its gaze on her.
She thought it might be someone sent by Jing Zhimei or Mo Haoxuan, but this person was very strong, and given Jing Zhimei’s and Mo Haoxuan’s current abilities, such a strong person definitely couldn’t be theirs. So, who could it be? Someone actually had the ability to dispatch such an impressive person.
Qin Qin got into the car and drove away.
The watching eye seemed to disappear, and only then did she feel relieved enough to go home. She gave Gan Tiantian the things she liked, and Gan Tiantian happily wrapped her arms around Qin Qin’s shoulders, telling her she would stay with her aunt for a while and wouldn’t accompany Qin Qin, hoping she and Lord Mo would cultivate a good relationship.
Hearing Gan Tiantian’s words, Qin Qin shook her head with a laugh, telling her that the Lord Mo she spoke of had gone overseas and wouldn’t be back for a few days.
Gan Tiantian shook her head and instead comforted Qin Qin not to be too lonely.
Qin Qin really wanted to roll her eyes. After Gan Tiantian left, she went into her room to wash up, then stepped out of the bathroom in her home clothes.
Now that Gan Tiantian had left, and Lu Xue Zhen and Zhao Han’s relationship had deepened, they often weren’t around.
The large apartment was now left to her alone, which seemed quite lonely.
She took out her cell phone and chatted with Mo Yunchen, who had gone abroad. Learning it was the middle of the night over there, she didn’t want to talk too much. She told him to take care of his health and not to overwork himself.
After hanging up, Qin Qin entered the study, took out some books, and started reading. She needed to absorb more knowledge.
She was so engrossed in her reading that by the time her eyes felt fatigued, it was already nine o’clock at night.
Entering the space, she cultivated "Heavenly Spirit" for a while. Once the Spiritual Power inside her body became abundant, Qin Qin left the space.
As soon as she left the space, she sensed an unusual aura, chilling and icy, almost like the breath of death.
Ever since she learned that Qi Shangyi might have resurrected, she had sent people to find the man called Old Black. Knowing that Old Black was a Tomb Robber and that he might have plundered Qi Shangyi’s tomb, leading to Qi Shangyi’s possible resurrection, she had been too busy to confront him. Or rather, she had been avoiding it. She didn’t know what to say if she sought him out, so she had been putting it off until now.
"Master... this aura is the same as the one that watched us during the day, but... it’s so strange, there’s no sign of life in him."
Xiao Fong only sensed this aura when it drew close.
Qin Qin narrowed her eyes and nodded. She too had noticed it. With her current abilities, detecting a person’s presence was no problem, but this one’s chilling absence of life’s warmth caused her Spiritual Power to waver slightly, rejecting this silent deathly breath, indicating that this person... was not a living being.
Qin Qin stood on alert in the study, feeling that the aura was right outside the door, wondering who it could be. Who could possibly possess an aura of death?
Qin Qin narrowed her eyes as the aura seemed to sense her as well and slowly receded from the door.
This person had actually followed her all the way here. How formidable.
After a while, the aura seemed to disappear, to leave.
"Master, Master, it seems to have gone. Let’s go out," Xiao Fong said from inside the space. Qin Qin nodded, walked out of the study, and saw the dimly lit living room lamp. The night outside was now fully dark, and apart from her, there was no one in the apartment.
Standing in the living room, Qin Qin looked around, the person’s aura completely gone, presumably having left.
Standing still, Qin Qin slowly pondered.
"Master, be careful!" Xiao Fong exclaimed from the space. Qin Qin turned around, and saw the dark corner of the balcony. The cold deathly aura moved from the balcony and slowly approached her.
"Are you Qin Qin?" a bloodthirsty, low voice resounded, full of coldness.
Qin Qin looked at the person who had come from the balcony, and in the dim light, she could clearly see his face. Her gaze widened, "Qi..."
Before she could speak, Qi Shangyi had already reached her side, looking down at her imposingly, about to seize Qin Qin with his hand.
As he reached out his hand, Qin Qin stepped back several times, too shocked to understand why Qi Shangyi would come after her. Could it be that he knew she was Qin Qing? No, that couldn’t be possible?
He couldn’t possibly know she was the same Qin Qing from a thousand years ago. If he did know, he wouldn’t look at her with such murderous intent upon meeting, and his hand seemed to be ready to strike her.
