Chapter 112: Liu Qingdai Ran Out_3
She still pretended not to see it, though.
"Master."
Bai Luqiu bowed respectfully and then smiled at Mu Yunqing. "Junior Brother, you're here too."
"Yes, I heard Junior Sister was facing the wall, so I specially came to keep her company," Mu Yunqing answered softly, turning his head to glance at Liu Qingdai, who was hopping around within the enchantment.
"I'm here too! Hurry up and let me out!" Liu Qingdai shouted from within, hammering against the enchantment. BANG! BANG! BANG!
The three of them—Liu Qingxuan, Bai Luqiu, and Mu Yunqing—pretended to be deaf and turned away.
"Luqiu, what brings you to your Master?" Liu Qingxuan asked.
"Master, I want to wipe out the Devil Sealing Cave," Bai Luqiu spoke bluntly.
Both Liu Qingxuan and Mu Yunqing were startled, their expressions surprised.
"What's wrong?" Liu Qingxuan asked.
"Master, the Devil Sealing Cave is a great hidden danger. An accident has already occurred this time. If those devil generals escape, the consequences will be unthinkable," Bai Luqiu said gravely.
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingxuan laughed. "Actually," he explained, "it's not that your Master doesn't want to destroy them, but those devil generals were kept specifically for you all."
"Kept for us?" Mu Yunqing and Bai Luqiu were simultaneously taken aback.
"You are unaware, but as your Master, I possess a method to refine them into a fruit containing a devil path Divine Ability. When you advance to the Divine Communication Realm, you can consume this fruit. At that time, you'll gain a Divine Ability," Liu Qingxuan spoke unhurriedly.
He naturally had his reasons for keeping these devil generals.
"This..." Bai Luqiu and Mu Yunqing exchanged glances, their eyes full of shock.
"Don't worry. These devil generals are but mere clones, specially reared by your Master," Liu Qingxuan smiled and spoke again to reassure Bai Luqiu.
"Clones?" This time, Bai Luqiu was even more astonished.
"Yes, they are clones I stripped from a Sixth Realm Devil Lord," said Liu Qingxuan indifferently.
While the two were still agape with surprise, he casually swept his hand across the Go board and secretly switched a few pieces.
"Yun Qing, don't space out. Finish this game."
"Ah... Oh." Mu Yunqing nodded. When he looked down, he saw that what was initially an evenly matched game had now turned to his disadvantage.
"That Devil Lord..."
"Of course, he has been refined by your Master. Don't worry, they are just a few clones," Liu Qingxuan remarked lightly.
"I see. Then I'm relieved." Bai Luqiu regained her composure from her shock and nodded in agreement.
It seems the Master's strength is even greater than I imagined.
"Master, haven't you already broken through to the Divine Communication Realm?" Bai Luqiu suddenly asked with some suspicion.
"How could that be possible? Breakthroughs aren't so easy to come by. I'm not an Ancestor," Liu Qingxuan shook his head, his hands still fiddling.
Bai Luqiu looked skeptical. She didn't quite believe it. The Master was certainly hiding his true power. He was very cunning.
Mu Yunqing, too, had lost interest in the game. The Master's hands were too fast. He couldn't keep up with his eyes, and before he knew it, he was outmatched.
"Master, aren't you also a clone?" Just then, Bai Luqiu suddenly had a thought. If the Master could split others into several parts, maybe he was using this trick himself.
"Nonsense." Liu Qingxuan paused for a moment and flicked Bai Luqiu on the forehead.
"Dad, let me out quickly, otherwise I'll reveal your secret!" At that moment, Liu Qingdai, from within the enchantment, seemingly thought of something and spoke excitedly.
"Secret? What secret?" Mu Yunqing and Bai Luqiu immediately became interested.
Liu Qingxuan stiffened, intending to reinstate the Prohibition to seal off the sound again.
"Really! I know all about my dad's secrets!" Liu Qingdai shouted hurriedly. "If you don't let me out, I'll spread them everywhere in the future!"
"..." Liu Qingxuan's face darkened. So much for my 'sweet little cotton jacket'; it felt more like she was stuffed with 'black-hearted cotton' instead.
Mu Yunqing and Bai Luqiu blinked, their eyes brimming with anticipation. The Master's secrets...
Liu Qingxuan scoffed, "Hmph!" The next moment, the enchantment shattered.
After observing for the past few days, Liu Qingdai's after-effects had indeed been completely eliminated. Whether she was confined or not no longer mattered.
"Hahahaha, I'm out!" Liu Qingdai stared at the disappearing enchantment, initially stunned, then filled with ecstasy.
Her figure flashed, and she immediately grabbed Bai Luqiu's arm. "Senior Sister, let's run!"
Before Bai Luqiu could react, she was dragged away.
This child... she's probably beyond control now, Liu Qingxuan sighed to himself, looking at the exuberant Liu Qingdai.
"Junior Sister, where are we going?" Bai Luqiu steadied herself.
"We're going to find Wang Shouzhen! I already said I would look for him before," said Liu Qingdai as she pulled Bai Luqiu, leaping joyfully into the air.
"Master, who is Wang Shouzhen?" Down below, Mu Yunqing asked with some astonishment. The name sounded familiar, but he couldn't quite remember where he'd heard it.
The next moment, he heard Liu Qingxuan curse by his ear, "Damn it!"
Mu Yunqing turned his head, only to see Liu Qingxuan's fists clenched tightly.
