194: The last piece of Qilin jade pendant, the mystery of the lake
"Prodigy, I was just joking with you. We also want to be simps."
Seeing Qin Fei scan and get contact information from over a dozen Young Misses, the other Qilin Battle Team members watched with envy.
"That's right, Prodigy, we're all brothers. To be honest, I've had a dream since I was a child: to be a simp."
"Prodigy..."
"Stop!" Chu Tianjiao said coldly, raising an eyebrow and sneering, "Each of you rides a Divine Beast Qilin, yet you shout about being simps. The Battle Team's reputation is being ruined by people like you."
"From now on, whoever talks about being a simp again, I guarantee I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of the boss."
Hearing this.
The Qilin Battle Team members stopped pretending.
Since flattery wasn't working, they had to resort to force.
"Prodigy, did you forget something? The boss gave us the right to 'stab' you."
"If you cooperate, we might go a little easier on you."
"Otherwise... you know."
Who would have thought that Chu Tianjiao was a hard nut to crack? He raised his head, nostrils flaring, and snorted coldly, "Sharing my girls is like taking my life. Don't even think about it."
"Besides, there are so many excellent Young Misses in the Ten Famous Schools. With your identities as Qilin Battle Team members, can't you find any?"
"Unless you're as stupid as pigs!"
As soon as he said this, the Qilin Battle Team members all turned to look at Qin Fei.
Facing everyone's scrutinizing gaze.
Even Qin Fei, who had been feigning for a long time, couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
This was truly killing hearts.
What about the promised brotherhood?
What about the promised loyalty?
Apparently, it was all 'stabbing' his brothers.
"I'm fat and short. Isn't it normal that I can't find a girlfriend, even with my identity as a Qilin Battle Team member?"
Qin Fei hardened his heart and immediately put on a self-deprecating show.
The Qilin Battle Team members exchanged glances.
Should they keep staring at Qin Fei?
Wouldn't that be impolite?
It would be impolite to themselves.
They couldn't take that blame.
At least Qin Fei had his weight to hide behind.
But they weren't fat!
Then what!
At this moment!!!
The Qilin Battle Team members all turned away from Qin Fei, falling silent.
Chu Tianjiao was a bomb.
But Qin Fei was a nuclear bomb!
"Stop messing around!"
Facing the awkward expressions of the Qilin Battle Team members, Yu Xiu also put away his smile and said with a serious expression, "I don't object to you falling in love, nor do I object to you using your identities as Qilin Battle Team members to attract the attention of the opposite sex."
"But absolutely no deceiving feelings. If you want to fall in love, then do it honestly and seriously."
"The Qilin Battle Team already has one Chu Tianjiao, which is embarrassing enough. If any of you dare to imitate Chu Tianjiao, don't blame me for being impolite."
Speaking of this, Yu Xiu looked at Chu Tianjiao again, "I can overlook your romantic affairs, but pay attention to your boundaries."
"And you, Qin Fei, manage your own boundaries, understand?"
"I don't mind if you have multiple girlfriends, and I won't interfere with your private lives, but the Qilin Battle Team does not allow playing with feelings."
"If you have the ability to make several girlfriends willing to accept you, willing to share one husband, then I bless you."
Among the Qilin Battle Team members.
Yang Duling's eyes towards Yu Xiu were full of resentment.
But she said nothing.
Yu Xiu had already clearly rejected her before; it was just that she was unwilling to let go.
"Boss, we understand."
The Qilin Battle Team members all nodded, and Yu Xiu didn't say anything more.
After the Ink Kirin flew for a short while, Yu Xiu located the last kirin jade pendant.
However, the location of this kirin jade pendant coincided with a blue light spot, a Qilin Opportunity.
From this, it could be seen.
The person holding the last kirin jade pendant was currently at the Qilin Opportunity location.
"Water Kirin?"
The blue light spot signified a Water Kirin.
Yu Xiu merely glanced at it, then put away the kirin jade pendant, controlled the Ink Kirin to fly for a moment, and then swooped downwards.
Not long after.
The Qilin Battle Team members arrived above a lake. The lake's color was very strange, a deep blue, with threads of red within the blue.
Moreover, the area around the lake was entirely basins and muddy swamps, with nowhere to land.
"Boss, is there no one?"
Chu Tianjiao looked down at the surroundings and didn't find a single person.
A look of doubt appeared on his face.
Because he knew.
For Yu Xiu to come here meant that the last kirin jade pendant was here.
But now there was no one.
Then... there was only one explanation.
This lake held another secret.
"The last kirin jade pendant is within that lake."
Yu Xiu pointed to the lake below, "There must be a secret here that we haven't discovered. Everyone, go search."
"Since that person could enter, they must have left traces around."
"We have the Ink Kirin and can fly in the air. He doesn't have that ability and could only enter the lake from the ground."
Chu Tianjiao and the others nodded.
Then, Yu Xiu controlled three hundred Ink Kirin to fly in different directions.
Over three hundred Ink Kirin spread out, searching inch by inch from west to east.
Time passed by minute by minute.
About ten minutes later.
Suddenly, a Qilin Battle Team member shouted, "Boss, there are traces here."
Hearing the shout.
Yu Xiu controlled the Ink Kirin and headed in the direction of that Qilin Battle Team member.
"Boss, look here. Although they deliberately erased their footprints, it's still clear that the soil here is new."
Yu Xiu nodded, then followed the traces left by the other party, continuously moving forward.
Not long after.
They entered the lake's vicinity.
But the next moment, he was puzzled.
He had already arrived above the lake.
And here, all traces completely disappeared.
"Did those people jump into the lake?" Chu Tianjiao asked doubtfully from the side.
The traces stopped at the lakeside.
Beyond that was the lake.
It was reasonable for Chu Tianjiao to have such a thought.
"They did enter the lake, but they didn't jump into it."
At this moment, Yu Xiu thought of a possibility.
That was the barrier and illusion that could only appear in a Xuanhuan world.
As he experienced more.
Chu Tianjiao no longer regarded this world as a simple martial arts world.
Because many things he had discovered before had exceeded the scope of martial arts.
So!
Seeing this lake, and the traces of those people disappearing at the lakeside.
Two words immediately appeared in Yu Xiu's mind: barrier and illusion.
Coupled with the fact that they had just ridden the Ink Kirin to above the lake.
From this, it could be seen.
To verify whether this lake had a barrier or illusion, the kirin jade pendant was key.
It was important to know.
The location shown by the last kirin jade pendant was precisely within the lake.
Thinking of this.
Yu Xiu decisively took out the kirin jade pendant.
The next moment.
He held the kirin jade pendant in his hand, then flew towards the lake.
"Follow me!"
