Chapter 838 Recruitment
In the void, Li Qi and Jing Wuzhen sat opposite each other.
Jing Wuzhen originally wanted to talk while floating, but Li Qi took the lead in "creating something out of nothing" and stepped out a small platform, allowing them to "sit and talk" in the void.
Movement is relative, so in the void, it looks like it is still.
This scene is really quite dreamy.
Jing Wuzhen in front of him, as a warrior, is naturally not as beautiful as a fairy. Although she is not ugly, she is actually a heroic woman with a stronger physique than ordinary women. She is about the same height as Li Qi.
But here, it looks different.
In those worlds that have not yet set foot outside the domain, every astronomer in them will probably be surprised by such a beautiful world. This unobstructed starry sky is so beautiful, without a little wind, without a trace of clouds, and the sky full of stars is all displayed in front of you, allowing you to observe freely.
Clear night sky... Of course, that can't be said. There is no weather in the void. The only thing that can be considered "eye-catching" in the void is the light of the quasar sword energy bursting out.
However, such conditions provide a very good environment for those who want to observe the starry sky carefully.
There are countless bright world groups hanging on the sky, and these light spots are as eye-catching as those painted on a picture.
However, for Jing Wuzhen, this is a bit of playing the lute to a cow. Unfortunately, she doesn't know these world groups, and she can't accurately read which world group it is.
Although her eyes can clearly see the changes in the size of these world groups and their distances from each other, this is also a reflection of her observation ability.
If the observation ability is not enough, the movement of the starry sky is basically undetectable. Tens of millions of miles is a large distance, but for two worlds, it is nothing.
Even an ordinary star will run at least 60 million kilometers every year, but the change in its position is almost imperceptible, because the distance between these celestial bodies is too far.
Even if it travels at several times the speed, it is basically invisible.
However, this is not the case for Jing Wuzhen. Her observation ability is very strong. With just her naked eyes, she can clearly identify the movement rules of those world groups.
For example, a world group in front of her left is about 60 light years away from her. Jing Wuzhen can clearly calculate that the core of this world group, Guixu, moves on an orbit 0.1 light year away from her world on average.
The world closest to it even moves on an orbit 160 million kilometers away from her. It has just crossed the death orbit and is constantly approaching. It can be seen that it will be swallowed by this Guixu soon.
Jing Wuzhen can even estimate that if it approaches Guixu another 44 million kilometers, it will be completely dead without a burial place.
This is the observation power of the fourth rank.
However, for mortals, they can hardly perceive the "starry sky" because their starry sky is actually a "film" woven by "star officials" and covering the world.
They must break through their own world to see the real starry sky, the light spots revealed in the real nothingness composed of world groups, and use their largest astronomical telescope to get relevant information from it.
"What do you mean? You suddenly left me here, what do you want to say?" Jing Wuzhen sat opposite Li Qi and asked.
Li Qi took out a teacup and tea leaves, began to pour water and brew tea, and said: "There are some things I want to discuss with you, Jing Wuzhen, but it's not easy to talk while standing, so let's sit down and talk while drinking tea."
"Don't be fussy, just say no if you have anything to say." Jing Wuzhen seemed a little impatient, and showed the unique disdain of a warrior for Li Qi's unwillingness to say something, but insisted on pouring tea and talking slowly.
However, she picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp, like a cow chewing a peony.
However, this sip made her eyes widen suddenly, and then she closed her eyes.
Then, about four or five seconds passed, and she seemed to be savoring something.
After everything was over, she opened her eyes again and exclaimed: "Good tea, where did it come from?"
"I have a friend named Zhang Zong, he likes to drink tea very much, and I learned some tea-making skills from him." Li Qi said with a smile.
"Zhang Zong... Zhang Zong... Well, I always feel that I have heard of this name." Jing Wuzhen thought for a while and seemed to have some impression.
"Taoism, Little Heavenly Master, the disciple of the current Heavenly Master." Li Qi said.
"Little Heavenly Master... a disciple of the second rank, oh, I remember, I once saw him fighting with the Demon Prince, a very powerful person, you are friends with him? It seems that your status is not small?" Jing Wuzhen put down the teacup and looked at Li Qi.
To be able to become friends with the second rank disciples, you must be from a big background. After all, prejudice is an objective fact. Although these genius disciples may not have prejudice themselves, their own hobbies, behavioral motives, and even talents have destined them to not talk with ordinary people.
People who can chat with them are basically geniuses of the same level, and there will definitely be someone who wants them. Even if no one wants them now, there will be someone who wants them in the future.
Unless one is extremely stubborn and insists on relying on one's own efforts, otherwise... most people will not refuse the invitation of the Great Dao under the premise of "harmony with the Dao".
After all, this is not only an improvement in status, but also a huge help on the road of pursuing the Tao, and this is not mixed with any interest relationship, it is purely a harmony of the heart of pursuing the Tao.
This kind of master-disciple relationship is common in the world's great Dao, but it is rare in the heavens and the worlds.
Therefore, most geniuses of this level are in a small circle of acquaintances.
After learning about the existence of the little Tianshi, even warriors can easily infer Li Qi's identity.
"Oh... Little Tianshi, Demon Prince, and your name, Li Qi, I seem to remember, the son of Wushen Mountain, the pioneer in the war between humans and witches, right?" Jing Wuzhen looked at Li Qi and said.
"Yes, it's me." Li Qi nodded: "They are all trivial matters, don't worry about it, let's talk about business, Miss Jing——"
"Didn't I just say that just call me by my name, don't call me Miss, it's disgusting." Jing Wuzhen reminded again.
"Sorry, Jing Wuzhen, what do you think about the magic way?" Li Qi asked.
"Kill them and then hurry up." Jing Wuzhen answered immediately without any hesitation.
"You and I have the same answer on this point. I think we can reach a consensus on this point." Li Qi nodded to show his approval.
"Really? But aren't the witches and the demons teaming up? If you take action against the demons now, it will lead to a deterioration of the relationship between the two sides, right?" Jing Wuzhen said.
"Don't think too much about the demons. Only these lunatics know what they are thinking. They can fight you desperately and cooperate with you at the same time. It all depends on their own ideas. Don't care so much." Li Qi said.
Jing Wuzhen nodded and agreed with this.
"So, I would like to ask you to do me this favor and join hands with me as my guardian. In the next... four thousand to five thousand years, it's about this time limit. During this period, accompany me to strangle the demons. I want to try whether I can attract the high-level demons to take action through this kind of movement." Li Qi said.
"Oh, so, you let those three go before, is it for this reason? Why do you want to attract high-level demons? You will die, right? As long as any third-grade person takes action, you and I will not be able to survive, or... you can survive, but I may not." Jing Wuzhen frowned and raised his doubts.
Li Qi did not answer the other party's previous question, he directly acquiesced, he only responded to the risk behind, Li Qi slowly said: "Indeed, there is such a risk, you may die, as for me... due to the protection of the teacher, I should be able to survive."
"So, this is a plea, I don't want to take the initiative to ask you for a reward for this, of course, if you ask for a reward, this is easy to do."
Yes, if Jing Wuzhen wants to get any reward, it is really easy to do. Li Qi thinks that his assets are more than enough to hire a fourth-grade person, if it doesn't work, he can ask the teacher to borrow. Zhu Fengdan is still very rich, at least for Li Qi.
However, if Li Qi really takes the initiative to ask for any reward, it will be difficult to do.
Everyone is at the fourth rank, and can ignore the law of cause and effect and can "self-perpetuate". Li Qi's casual mention of reward is insulting, and it might backfire.
Although martial arts have very high requirements for external things, tempering blood, polishing the body, and warming the mind are not cheap jobs. It has been said before that the first priority of martial arts is resources, and the second is perseverance. Only when these two are satisfied can one become a good martial artist. However, before the other party took the initiative to ask for rewards, Li Qi was unwilling to start the topic with rewards.
If rewards cannot be used, then only pleading and the same vision can be used.
Especially the same vision, for practitioners who have reached the fourth rank, this is more tempting than any benefit.
Jing Wuzhen did not answer, but looked at Li Qi.
She said to Li Qi that if a lower-rank person begged a higher-rank person, it would be common, and if a higher-rank person begged a lower-rank person, it would not be uncommon, but if the status was equal, it would take a lot of courage for one person to beg another person to do something.
So, Jing Wuzhen said after a while: "Then I want to ask, are you killing the demons just to avenge your daughter? Or is it to vent your anger? Or do you have other purposes?"
Li Qi replied: "All three. I want to avenge my daughter and vent my anger. At the same time, I also want to see what the high-level demons are thinking. I want to figure out the things inside the demons. This requires testing the level of the high-level demons. If the follow-up is successful, I have a plan for the demons, but it will be possible to implement it only when I reach the third level, but I have to start preparing now."
"If possible, I hope you can join in the preparation process. As for the follow-up, let's see."
"Wow..." Jing Wuzhen looked Li Qi up and down.
He actually said openly: 'I have a plan for the demons. '
This can't be said casually.
"So, can you tell me about this plan?" Jing Wuzhen said.
"Sorry, no. Before the plan is implemented, it can only exist in my mind. Even my mind is not safe. You also know the methods of the devil, so I used a special method to save this plan to ensure that even if my mind is read, there will be no leakage." Li Qi replied.
"If I tell you that I don't know about your plan, I won't join. Will you insist on keeping it secret?" Jing Wuzhen asked.
"Of course, then I can only regret losing a good-looking guardian." Li Qi smiled.
"Very good, you don't look like you're lying, then I'll join, but I have to make it clear that I have no interest in your hatred and your daughter's hatred, but you have to make sure that your plan can pass your own test." Jing Wuzhen said.
As for the question of Li Qi lying... she didn't think much about it.
Li Qi, the son of Wushen Mountain, is quite famous, and he is not infamous. In this case, he still has credibility.
"Of course, after all, I will die. If the demons really want to take action, they may not be able to protect me. In any case, this plan is very dangerous and requires risking my life." Li Qi's voice became serious.
"It's a small matter. You and I have practiced so far, and there are more than one thing that requires risking our lives. Even for you, the proud sons of heaven, I think there are many times when you need to risk your lives, right?" Jing Wuzhen looked at Li Qi.
"Yes, I grew up very fast, but there were many things that required me to risk my life." Li Qi recalled and answered with a smile.
"That's it. You are such a noble young man. What about me, a warrior who crawled out of a sea of blood and corpses? What should we do next?" Jing Wuzhen asked.
Since the cooperation has been decided, it's time to work. She has never been a fussy person. She directly held a heavy sword in one hand and a ceremonial sword in the other, ready to start working.
The ceremonial sword is called "zhi" and the heavy sword is called "cai", which is exactly her martial arts spirit.
"No hurry, take a few days off and sit down. The city needs some time to build. If it is destroyed from the beginning, it will be clean and neat to rebuild it, but it will be a pain to keep repairing it." Li Qi poured Jing Wuzhen another cup of tea and looked in the direction of the world.
He closed his eyes after just one look.
After these few days, Li Shiwei should have run away, right?
The Demon Prince... there should be some tacit understanding. He would probably be happy to see me do something for that city.
As for the Demon Lord who was released, the news should have been spread.
Good thing.
