C39 (2/2)

Ignoring the strange gazes of the crowd, Liu Yunqi asked the attendant calmly, ”Are there any rooms here?”

”Yes, how many would you like?” Although the waiter was suspicious of the relationship between Liu Yunqi and Liu Yunqi, he still answered dutifully.

”I want two …” Just as Liu Yunqi was about to speak about the two rooms, Yue'er interrupted him and said, ”We want a room.”

”Yue Er, you …” Liu Yunqi looked at Yue'er doubtfully.

”Big Brother Yunqi, you wouldn't let me sleep in this unfamiliar place, right? ”I'll have nightmares …” Yue Er said pitifully.

Liu Yunqi thought for a while and replied, ”Yue'er has just been frightened, and this place is indeed a strange place. It would be hard for a little girl like Yue'er to face her alone.”

”Give us a room.”

After Liu Yunqi and Yue'er went upstairs, the guests started to discuss among themselves.

”These two kids don't have any adults by their side and they still dare to come to the restaurant? Aren't you afraid of being sold? ”

”Probably running away from home.”

”I don't think so. Seeing how calm they are, how do they look like they ran away from home?” They might be young masters or ladies from some noble family who were sent out to gain some experience. ”

”Hmm, that makes sense. But why aren't there any guards around them?”

”You don't understand this, do you? Since those noble masters have let them come out to gain experience, then the arrangement of the guards won't be too obvious. ”

”Hm, that makes sense.”

As soon as Yue'er entered the room, she impatiently threw herself onto the bed. Liu Yunqi frowned: ”Yue'er, go to bed after you finish showering.”

”Oh.” Yue'er playfully stuck out her tongue as she walked towards the bathroom. Soon, the sound of water could be heard from the bathroom.

Taking the chance while Yue'er was bathing, Liu Yunqi sat cross legged on his chair and began cultivating.

Today had been three consecutive battles, and Liu Yunqi faintly felt that he had reached a bottleneck that he hadn't encountered in a long time. Thus, he wanted to try and see if he could make use of this opportunity to break through.

Closing his eyes, Liu Yunqi entered into a state of cultivation. Battle qi was flowing through all the veins in his body like water, and gradually, the circulation speed of the battle qi became faster and faster, the veins in his body began to ache, the burning pain in his veins caused pain to surface on his face, and droplets of sweat gradually surfaced on his face.

Just as he was focusing all of his attention on cultivation, Liu Yunqi did not notice that a speck of colorful light as small as fine sand appeared in the air, and slowly drilled into his skin, as if it was being pulled. His skin had also faintly been dyed with a rainbow-colored color.

He did not notice this as he had already reached a bottleneck and was using his battle qi to start charging towards it.

Liu Yunqi gritted his teeth as his battle spirit surged towards the bottleneck like a tidal wave. However, the bottleneck in his body was still as unmoving as a boulder in the ocean.

A burning sensation spread out from Liu Yunqi's body, causing his skin to turn red like fire, and all the bean sized perspiration that had just come out from his body was evaporated into steam.

As if summoned, more and more specks of light emerged out of thin air and gathered towards Liu Yunqi.

The excruciating pain caused his face to contort, as though Liu Yunqi could not hold on any longer.

At this time, the jade-green leaf around his neck emitted a gentle green light that enveloped Liu Yunqi's entire body, and the green light seemed to be able to cure his body and mind, instantly alleviating his expression by a lot.

However, as Liu Yunqi continued to organize his warrior power to launch attacks, no matter how mysterious the green light was, it was unable to suppress the burning sensation in his body.

The skin all over his body became redder and redder, blue veins protruding out all over, making Liu Yunqi look even more ferocious and terrifying.

At this time, Liu Yunqi's face was filled with insanity. He clenched his teeth and was just about to continue increasing his speed.

”Pfft!”

A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed out from his mouth as the green light enveloping his body instantly disappeared. Liu Yunqi lethargically sat on the chair and muttered to himself, ”I'm still lacking a little.”

Just as Yue'er came out from the bathroom, she saw Liu Yunqi spitting blood and quickly ran over to her. ”Big Brother Yunqi, you vomited blood?! ”What's going on?!”

”Ya!”

As soon as her hand touched Liu Yunqi's body, Yue'er hurriedly withdrew her hand and asked, ”Why are you so hot?”

”It's fine, I just failed at breaking through the bottleneck. I just need to rest for a bit and I'll be fine.” Liu Yunqi weakly waved his hand.

As soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and began to regulate his breathing.

Yue'er worriedly glanced at Liu Yunqi before sitting on the bed and wiping her dripping hair with a bath towel. From time to time, she would look at Liu Yunqi with an expression of concern.

Not long after, Liu Yunqi slowly opened his eyes and heaved a sigh of relief.

Yue'er hurriedly moved closer to Liu Yunqi, ”Big Brother Yunqi, are you alright?”

”It's fine. I'm just a bit weak. I'll be able to recover tomorrow.” Liu Yunqi stood up and rubbed Yue'er's hair before walking out.

”Big brother Yunqi, it's so late. Where are you going?” Yue Er asked doubtfully.

”Take a bath.” Liu Yunqi said without turning his head back.

Thirty minutes later, the bathroom door slowly opened. Just as Yue Er was about to speak, she saw the person standing at the door and couldn't help but be stunned. ”Elder sister, who are you?”

Standing there was a girl with a head of ponytails. Her face was delicate and pretty, and her lips were red and white. She wore a long purple dress.

”Stupid Yue'er …” I am your big brother Yunqi … ” The girl said with a smile. Her voice was as pleasant to listen to as a skylark singing.

”Impossible!” Big brother Yunqi doesn't look like this! And you and he have different voices! Don't try to lie to me! Just who are you?! What did you do to Big Brother Yunqi?! Give him back to me! ” Yue'er said with some anger on her face.

The young girl was not the least bit annoyed, and she lightly smiled. ”Stupid Yue Er …” ”Then what about it?”

Halfway through his words, the girl's voice suddenly changed to a boy's voice. It sounded exactly like Liu Yunqi's voice.

”This... You... are you really Big Brother Yunqi? ” Yue'er was instantly dumbfounded.
