Yun Qishen

Chapter 2130 Chapter Boundary

"The Demon Lord is over here." The Lion Wandering Demon brought Yun Qishen to a street with less traffic. There were many businesses around, and apart from passing vehicles, there were no people trading at the stalls.

Mo Langqin raised his head and looked around. He frowned in confusion, "There are no wandering monsters around here. Is your nose not working well?"

The lion demon sniffed again, and then replied more confidently, "I can guarantee that the priest must be nearby."

"Did he use invisibility magic to avoid being discovered?" Mo Langqin guessed.

Yun Qishen, who was standing by, noticed that there were some fresh scratches on the edge of a stall in front of him. He then carefully observed the other stalls around him and found that it was not just that one stall that had scratches, but that there were also signs of fighting in the corners of stalls all over the street.

"I don't think it's an invisibility spell. This Spirit Realm Chamber of Commerce is open to the public. Practitioners of all races on the Gu'ao Continent should come to visit. They won't miss this rare opportunity, just like you, Mo Langqin, who insisted on coming here. Here..."

Yun Qishen pointed out the traces of fighting he had found to Mo Langqin and Shizi Youyao, and the three of them moved closer to that stall.

"There are obvious signs of fighting around here, which means someone had a fight here not long ago. However, the vendors around here didn't react much. I think they may have had some of their memories erased."

The lion demon pointed at the traces of fighting and moved to the edge of the road. "If these are traces of fighting, why do they just stop and disappear here?"

"Is it a barrier?" Mo Langqin responded quickly.

"That's right, this is the only explanation we can give now." Yun Qishen turned his head and looked at the Lion Wandering Demon and asked, "Do you smell a strong scent about your priest now?"

The lion-like demon nodded, "It's very thick, as if the priest is right next to us."

"I see."

Yun Qishen just sighed, then used his eyes to observe the surroundings. Faintly, he saw some energy shadows flowing around.

Mo Langqin touched Yun Qishen's arm with his shoulder, "Can't you find out anything by looking into his mind and nature?"

"I can only vaguely see some shadows of different shapes." Yun Qishen retracted his gaze from the surroundings. He blinked to relieve the stimulation of the magic power while sensing the edge of the barrier around him that was similar to the barrier. "What we really need now is to find the key point to remove this barrier."

"What's the key point?" asked the Lion Monster.

"It's naturally the weakest point of the barrier, which should be nearby. But this barrier is obviously a two-way barrier, which requires two forces to hit the same point of the barrier at the same time to barely break. So this kind of barrier is usually used to control some dangerous criminals and enemies."

After hearing Yun Qishen's explanation, Mo Langqin clenched his fist and slammed his palm, "The guy who cast the spell must have used such a barrier in order to avoid making a big fuss in the Chamber of Commerce."

Yun Qishen raised his hand and pushed Mo Langqin's forehead. "Then why don't they just kill these trapped guys? It's also about erasing the memories of the surrounding vendors. It's much more beneficial to eliminate the enemy than to imprison them. If they are just imprisoning them, it's not for the purpose of protection, then they want to keep them as bargaining chips. Of course, this is just my guess, and you have to ask the parties involved for details."

The three of them were chatting in front of the stall, but they didn't pick up anything to ask the price. The shop owner was smiling at first, thinking they were big customers, but half a day passed and the three of them still kept talking.

"My two guests, you have been talking in front of my stall for a long time. Is there anything you like?" The stall owner couldn't help it. These three guys were told to buy something if they wanted to, and leave if they didn't want to.

Yun Qishen pointed at Mo Langqin and said casually, "Buy him a collar."

"Ah?" The stall owner asked with a questioning look on his face.

Mo Langqin quickly waved his hand and pointed at the lion monster, "Don't look at me, look at the big cat over there."

The stall owner turned around and saw the Lion Monster. It would be reasonable for this person to buy a necklace ornament.

"Ah?" It was the Lion-Yokai's turn to be confused. He pointed at himself and asked, "Why would I suddenly need a collar?"

"Just take it if I give it to you. Don't miss it! One more magic weapon can improve your cultivation." Mo Langqin smiled at the Lion Monster.

"Oh, then I want the golden one." The Lion Wandering Demon pointed to a golden ornament on the stall, "I can pay for it directly, you don't have to pay!"

Mo Langqin pushed Yun Qishen aside and moved closer to the lion monster. "Hey~ Just accept the kindness from the young master. Just treat it as making friends."

Yun Qishen kicked Mo Langqin's butt with disdain, "Do I need you to help me make friends?"

Mo Langqin covered his butt and moved closer to Yun Qishen, smiling, "Young Master, I am trying to promote harmony between the two races. You can give me some rewards as a peace ambassador later." Yun Qishen just wanted to push away this "money-eating beast" that was sticking to him.

The stall owner was naturally happy to sell something, so he talked more. He smiled happily at Yun Qishen, "I can tell from the looks of it that you are a person from a high-level immortal sect. The beasts under you have cultivated to the point where they can speak human language. You even have servants serving you. Your status in the secular world must be extraordinary."

Mo Langqin's eyebrows jumped. He was unhappy and immediately yelled at the stall owner, "What servant! I am a merchant--"

Yun Qishen covered Mo Langqin's mouth with his hand and continued, "It's a wounded soldier. I wonder if the store has any common medicines like golden wound medicine. My swordsmanship cannot help heal my friend, and my friend is just an ordinary person. Spiritual medicine is too stimulating for him."

"Yes! Yes! I'll give it to you right away!" The stall owner turned around, so happy that he almost hummed a little tune.

"Shopkeeper!" Yun Qishen suddenly shouted loudly.

The stall owner smiled and turned around, "Sir, is there anything else you want..."

Unexpectedly, the stall owner was greeted by a sharp sword. Yun Qishen used the black energy to transform the sword and directly pierced the shop owner's forehead. Then a ray of light flashed, and some of the power of the barrier flowed out from the wound on the stall owner's forehead.

Yun Qishen found the key point of the barrier.

"What kind of person is this? He actually put the weakness of the barrier on ordinary people!" Yun Qishen complained and the sword blade turned into black air and dissipated. He quickly pushed his hand forward and pressed it on the stall owner's forehead and turned it again, "Run--"

"break--"

[Boom boom——]

The ground around them began to shake, which meant that the imprisonment barrier was collapsing. The strong reaction of the environment also proved that at this moment, on the other side of the barrier, someone was releasing magic power at the same center as Yun Qishen.

The owners of other stalls chose to protect their treasures during the earthquake, and they also started gossiping.

"What happened? Such a big noise!"

"Why is the ground shaking so violently all of a sudden?"

"What are those guys doing over there?"

Soon, many eyes were focused on Yun Qishen and the others.

Suddenly someone shouted, "I saw it with my own eyes! The Taoist just pierced the stall owner's forehead with his sword!"

"what?!"

"No way!"

"too frightening!"

The surroundings became even noisier, and some timid ones even packed up their stalls and prepared to leave. Among the busy figures, one figure showed his head and ran away in shame.

Mo Langqin noticed the guy running away in disgrace, and he quickly said to Yun Qishen, "Young Master, someone just glanced over here and ran away in disgrace."

"He must have informed the guy who set up the barrier. It's no big deal." Yun Qishen focused his eyes on the center of the wound on the stall owner's forehead. He instructed Mo Langqin, "Mo Langqin, go make the stall owners around here lose their memory again."

Mo Langqin spread his hands and said, "Young Master, why do you need my help if you can just use the mind-reading technique to probe people's nature?"

Yun Qishen felt that if he tried harder, the barrier would be broken. "I can't take my eyes off the ground right now. If we delay any longer, the news will get out. If it gets out of hand, it will be detrimental to our future actions."

"But even if you say so, young master... I can't possibly kill all of them at once..." Before Mo Langqin could finish his words, the outline of a metal staff emerged from the stall owner's forehead.

The tail end of the staff slammed heavily into the ground, and a green light exploded, instantly enveloping the surroundings.

In the light, a faint female voice was heard, "Let me do it."
