Chapter 125: Fighting Qi Can Surpass High Cultivation Ranks
Qin Bi's lethality did not surprise Lin Yao, only amazed him.
Qin Bi understood the reason: this was a fictional world akin to cultivation, governed primarily by fortune and luck, along with fate and destiny; fighting qi was innate and focused on killing intent.
Fighting qi could be cultivated, but it was innate and primarily governed by fortune and luck.
At certain moments, when the values of fortune and luck reached a certain level, fighting qi could surpass even high cultivation ranks.
Envious?
Jealous?
Did that need saying? With fighting qi enhancement, Lin Yao was indeed envious.
The new Beast Realm small space had already been cleaved open; the fortune value and fighting qi value had surely increased. Coming to this Beast Realm small space was practically a way to grind fighting qi value for the Princess Consort.
This logic was understood by Lin Yao, the First Strategist. Naturally, Qin Tan, a County Magistrate of Great Yan and a graduate of the imperial examination, understood it too. Qin Tan was now bursting with confidence; as long as Qin Bi killed once more, he would dare to say, "What is a White-level cultivation base?!"
This Beast Realm small space opened by the Ministry of Revenue was excellent; it provided a massive boost for Qin Bi.
"Niece!" Qin Tan could no longer maintain his dignity. He spoke kindly to Qin Bi: "As Mr. Lin said, if sects come to seize the new Beast Realm small space, we rely on you. Gauge it carefully, but do not be polite."
If those above White-level cultivation could not be killed, then those below White-level should not be spared.
Qin Tan was not a soft-hearted person. If Qin Bi's fighting qi were not so formidable, the small space would surely have been seized, and the Hou Fu family would have suffered casualties. Thinking of this, Qin Bi felt a chill in his heart.
"Enough, you all stop worrying." Qin Bi waved her hand, muttering, "My fighting qi is uncontrollable; whoever comes, I kill."
Qin Lang's heart skipped a beat. Don't get too big for your boots; it leads to trouble. Qin Lang advised, "Sister, we must gauge it carefully."
Qin Tang also said, "Yes, do not be careless."
Having stoked Qin Bi's fire, they now worried and gave cautious advice one by one. Rong Juan looked up with bright eyes, gazing at Qin Bi. His mother was so amazing, killing non-stop; her fighting qi value was uncontrollable.
Qin Bi was not the type to dawdle. She sounded somewhat impatient: "Go do your work."
That was true. Qin Tan called Qin Di and others to hurriedly gather items. This seizure attempt served as a warning; gathering became even more urgent. Guards and servants sped up, chopping trees and stripping willow branches.
Lin Yao and Qin Tang chopped sandalwood together, while Qin Bi held the little milk bun and continued their stroll.
Qin Tan stood before a yellow sandalwood tree, channeling spiritual power to chop. For his cultivation level, doing manual labor was slower than using spiritual power. Besides, he was here to stabilize his cultivation base; chopping trees achieved the same effect.
"Spirit Rabbit, Spirit Rabbit..." the little milk bun exclaimed.
"Where is it?" Rong Yan helped catch it.
The third branch's young illegitimate son also ran over, chasing a Spirit Rabbit everywhere.
Qin Bi spotted something resembling fruit. Puzzled, she walked over to examine it closely. Stepping onto a stone and tilting her head, she indeed saw a fruit tree—a Spirit Fruit Tree, laden with Spirit Peaches.
The fruits were reddening. Normally, they should not appear in this season, but Spirit Fruit Trees were incomparable to ordinary fruit trees.
Delighted, Qin Bi immediately called the little milk bun and Rong Yan: "Come quickly, I found a Spirit Fruit Tree. There are fruits; they are all edible."
Rong Yan and others were reaching out to catch the Spirit Rabbit. Hearing this, they did not abandon the beast, which was nearly exhausted from being chased. If they left, catching this Spirit Rabbit again would be difficult. Whatever good thing it was, they had to catch the Spirit Rabbit first.
"Mother," Rong Juan said in a milky voice, "Wait!"
Qin Bi waited and did not pick one first. She was pregnant and wary of everything new; no matter how good something was, she could not risk it. She was not in a hurry; the Spirit Fruit Tree would not run away.
Thinking of this, Qin Bi quickly turned back, glancing at the Spirit Fruit Tree to ensure it did not truly run away.
It was still there. While waiting, Qin Bi paid a bit more attention to the Spirit Fruit Tree. Once she discovered it, it would not be easy to escape.
The Spirit Rabbit was alive, hopping about, and small in size; the more urgently one tried to catch it, the harder it was. Unconcerned about the entrance to the Beast Realm small space, Qin Bi called out loudly to Lin Yao, who walked over.
"Do you see that Spirit Fruit Tree?" Qin Bi pointed it out to Lin Yao. "Rong Juan is busy. You pick the fruits first. I will guard the entrance to the Beast Realm small space. If no one comes, I will return."
"Ho!" Lin Yao's eyes sparkled. "There are quite a few Spirit Fruits. This new Beast Realm small space is indeed excellent."
As Qin Bi prepared to leave, Lin Yao hurriedly said, "I will accompany you."
"No need," Qin Bi said. "I will call Rong Juan."
The little milk bun was very busy; the Spirit Rabbit had not yet been caught. Called by Qin Bi, he wobbled toward the entrance of the Beast Realm small space, while Qin Bi spoke gently to the child.
"Hey!" a young woman shouted loudly. "Are there many good things inside?"
This shout startled Qin Bi. She had not expected anyone to arrive so soon. She saw several young people preparing to step into the Beast Realm small space. Rong Juan furrowed his small eyebrows. Mother had just been startled; he must not let his younger brother be frightened.
Holding the little milk bun, Qin Bi narrowed her eyes, feeling annoyed, and continued walking toward the entrance.
Only a few steps remained; she could block the newcomers.
This group had rushed over in haste, totaling thirty people, all possessing cultivation bases. They brought no ordinary people. Among them, a middle-aged man possessed great demeanor; every gesture he made carried the fortune of an imperial dynasty.
A young man in a blue robe stepped forward and immediately demanded, "Who killed the people of Rong Di just now?"
Oh, an official from Rong Di, likely from the Ministry of Revenue or the Ministry of Works. They must also be here to gather items. Qin Bi felt a bit angry. Rong Di was wealthier than Great Yan, yet they still came to share a piece of the pie.
Great Yan's land was barren, while Rong Di was somewhat stronger.
"I will ask you." Qin Bi clearly felt outnumbered and weak. She turned back and called out, "Third Uncle, Cousin..."
Qin Tan led the group, rushing over in a panic. The Vice Minister of Works leading the Rong Di group observed from afar, scanning the cultivation bases of Qin Tan and others. Once he saw clearly, he immediately sneered disdainfully through his nose.
"Stop gathering items," this Vice Minister of Works declared. "This Beast Realm small space belongs to us."
Look how arrogant they were. The strong are revered, so they looked down on those with low cultivation so lightly.
Qin Tan and Qin Tang and others had just arrived and stood firm when Qin Bi's fighting qi surged upward. Her confidence was bolstered. Before her Third Uncle and others could speak, Qin Bi waved her hand and threw her fighting qi outward.
Qin Bi's fighting qi was ruthless; whoever was arrogant, she destroyed. The people opposite were killed by the fighting qi, their Spirit Realms in chaos. That Vice Minister of Works was horrified, and the life force of those around him dissipated, killing them instantly.
"This, this..." this official was too shocked to speak.
Qin Bi would not listen to his nonsense and was about to strike again. This one was hard to kill; if he could not be killed, he should not even be allowed to be reborn. The best outcome was the destruction of both body and soul. Qin Tan saw this, drew his blade, stepped forward, and hacked the opponent to death.
Unconvinced, Qin Bi stepped over and waved her sleeve.
"What are you doing?" Qin Tan asked, puzzled.
"Collect his soul," Qin Bi said.
Qin Tan was surprised, and Qin Tang, who had lagged behind, froze. Was this still the delicate and weak Qin Bi?!
