775 Qin Xi’s Tactic
Qin Xi made the right bet. Jiang Yi was indeed a lonely and a cold-blooded demon, but he was a human first. Humans had emotions, feelings, and weaknesses.
In the past few days, Qin Xi had never seen him show any other emotions. At his age, with his cultivation, it was very difficult for him to show emotions that would affect him.
She guessed that the old man who raised him but was eaten by him was a taboo topic. Otherwise, why would the old man’s corpse be buried here? Moreover, this was also the place where the old man lived in seclusion back then. Actually, he had feelings for the old man from time to time, but he did not know what feelings were and would not express them.
Perhaps even the old man didn’t know that the most important thing to do when raising a child was to teach the child how to be a proper person. Otherwise, once a person was apathetic to human lives, he would be a threat to society.
As for Jiang Yi’s weakness, Qin Xi already knew it.
The most urgent thing was to figure out how to break the Strangulation Array. However, the Strangulation Array was not something that could be broken just because she wanted to.
Qin Xi firmly believed that no matter what kind of array formation it was, as long as the array core was found, even the ancient killing array would be easily cracked.
The idea she came up with was asking Jiang Yi to demonstrate how to deactivate the array first.
She wondered if Jiang Yi would go and get the herbs for her. If he didn’t, all her efforts would be in vain.
Just as Qin Xi was feeling nervous, she felt a slight fluctuation in the surrounding air and a huge difference in the temperature.
The coldness she felt just now made her realize that Jiang Yi must have left.
Qin Xi’s face darkened and she suddenly wanted to curse. She was just thinking that she had to follow Jiang Yi out so that she could see how he deactivated the array.
Now that he had gone out without telling her, how was she going to break the array?
Although he could still come back, who knew if the method to go out and enter the Strangulation Array was the same? If it didn’t work, she would be trapped here forever.
Forget it, it was too late to regret. When the time came, she would see if she could figure it out herself.
Without Jiang Yi around, Qin Xi could finally check the entire cave. If there was another exit, she would not have to go through so much trouble to break the array.
Of course, what Qin Xi wanted to do the most now was to regain her cultivation. Without her cultivation, even if she ran out, she would not be able to go far. If she was caught again, who could guarantee that this guy would not eat her up?
At the thought of being eaten up alive, Qin Xi couldn’t help but shiver.
Just as she was looking around, she suddenly felt something approaching. She instinctively took a few steps back, but there was a thick rock wall behind her. She had nowhere to retreat and looked warily at the empty dark room.
Actually, this eerie feeling was extremely familiar to her. It felt as if a soul was approaching. After thinking for a moment, she said to the empty person with uncertainty, “I can feel you. Are you a soul?”
