Physical mage, challenge me to a solo duel!

Wang Yi's initial impression of Wu Manqi was fairly good. Upon their first meeting, he realized that she was a woman with considerable skills and was not simple at all.

Although he was only two years older than Wu Guan, he was far superior to a hothead like Wu Guan.

His words, actions, and conduct were all extraordinary.

Until the night of the attack, Wang Yi's feelings for Wu Manqi began to plummet.

The impression of Wu Jie behind Wu Manqi is definitely not good either.

Wang Yi liked neither of them as much as Wu Guan. At least Wu Guan wasn't so complicated and was incredibly simple-minded.

Although Chi Jiayan was the mastermind behind hiring Emman Morris, Wu Jie was indeed not involved in the whole affair.

In some ways, Wang Yi and Wu Jie were even victims of this conspiracy.

But not all victims are the same.

Wu Jie had long seen through Chi Jiayan's plan, but he still chose to go with the flow and use Wang Yi to turn the tables on them.

Then don't blame Wang Yi for harboring resentment.

You can't expect me to be grateful to you after you've used me as a pawn, can you?

Of course, if Wang Yi hadn't been aware of all this, things might really have turned out this way.

Now, Wu Jie suddenly stepped in personally to meet with Wang Yi, and even held a family banquet, which surprised Wang Yi.

However, after experiencing so much, Wang Yi no longer believes that this will be a trap. The previous misunderstanding was just him overthinking things.

At least in China, there are still many restrictions on mages.

Moreover, even if Wu Jie suddenly lost his mind and wanted to deal with him, he wouldn't choose to do it at home.

Wang Yi simply couldn't understand why Wu Jie was suddenly doing this.

It couldn't be because he was scared after returning safely from the Lingnan Sand Bridge, could it?

It's even less likely that he felt sorry for Chi Jiayan after she was arrested, and wanted to apologize out of fear.

Stop talking nonsense. Putting aside the fact that Wang Yi's current strength is far from enough, he probably won't even come into Wu Jie's sights until he becomes a high-level mage.

Even Chi Jiayan's arrest was orchestrated by Wu Jie as a counterattack.

It can't be that the matter was already settled, the mastermind confessed and was brought to justice, and Wu Jie was singing songs at home, indulging in his own pleasure, when he suddenly remembered that there was still a minor character like him who was being used.

Finally, he had a change of heart and prepared to apologize?

Believing Wu Jie has had a change of heart is less reliable than believing you are Qin Shi Huang.

What is Wu Jie's status? What is Wang Yi's status?

Anyone who believes that is an idiot.

Wang Yi lowered his head in thought, unable to figure out what Wu Jie's purpose was.

Admittedly, his wounded, newly formed mind still falls short compared to these cunning old foxes.

Seeing that Wang Yi was considering, Wu Manqi did not urge him, but just silently stared at him.

The little boy in front of her always managed to exceed her expectations.

Whether it was easily defeating Wu Guan in the duel or repeatedly refusing her invitations afterward.

They could even detect Ayman Morris's ambush in advance and temporarily withstand the attack from this mid-level mage.

After she appeared, Wang Yi, who was in the middle of the situation, was able to directly discern her second uncle's strategy from just a few words.

Each one of them embodies both bravery and wisdom.

Just when you think you've uncovered all his secrets, you turn around and find that he's actually hiding much more beneath the surface.

Just like this time, if it weren't for her second uncle's analysis, she would never have imagined that there was actually a very mysterious extraordinary mage standing behind Wang Yi.

That's a transcendent mage; in the entire Lanling City, Bai Jingting is the only one who is openly recognized as a transcendent mage.

Wu Manqi recalled her second uncle's reflections at the time. If she had known this beforehand, she certainly wouldn't have adopted this strategy to deal with Chi Jiayan's attacks.

Compared to a transcendent mage, what is Chi Jiayan anyway?

Now that the cracks have already formed, we can only try our best to repair them.

Therefore, Wu Jie had to personally intervene to try to ease the tension between the two sides.

However, Wu Manqi didn't know how her second uncle could repair his relationship with Wang Yi.

Based on Wu Manqi's several encounters, Wang Yi is not only sharp and bold, cautious yet arrogant, but most importantly, he is a stubborn person at heart.

Such people are the most difficult to deal with.

Either avoid conflict altogether, or if conflict does arise and cannot be resolved, the best solution is...

Wu Manqi shook her head, quickly banishing the dangerous thought.

Wu Manqi had enough trust in her second uncle's abilities and believed that he would have a way to resolve the situation.

"When?" Wang Yi asked suddenly after thinking for a moment.

Wu Manqi immediately replied, "This Sunday, at noon."

"Can."

Wang Yi ultimately decided to go and see what Wu Jie's purpose was.

Wu Manqi breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Wang Yi's answer.

The mission is finally complete.

However, Wu Manqi quickly realized what was going on and glared at Wang Yi, feeling indignant.

She had invited Wang Yi so many times, and Wang Yi had always refused very decisively. But this time, when her second uncle invited her, Wang Yi accepted immediately.

You could pull it a little bit!

Are you deliberately targeting me?

Pah, what a piece of junk!

Noticing the change in Wu Manqi's mood, which seemed to indicate a hint of displeasure, Wang Yi felt completely bewildered.

We've already agreed, what more do you want?

This woman is such a nuisance.

Wang Yi stood up and carried the chair back to the restaurant, clearly indicating that she wanted to see the guest out.

"Hmph." Wu Manqi could easily see through Wang Yi's meaning. After snorting, she got up, placed the water glass on the coffee table, and gave a final reminder: "Don't stand me up."

Wang Yi, who had returned again, picked up Wu Manqi's chair and said, "Don't worry, I always keep my word. Take care, and don't come back."

Having achieved her goal, Wu Manqi left with a belly full of resentment.

Wang Yi tidied up the living room and continued his cultivation.

Then, as soon as it was dinner time, he would immediately follow the smell to Qi Xiaohao's house for a free meal.

Once something happens, it will happen again, and Wang Yi gradually stopped worrying about it.

The main reason is that Qi Xiaohao's aunt is a really good cook. When it comes to food, Wang Yi is unwilling to compromise on his own if he has the means.

Moreover, if he eats more, Qi Xiaohao will eat less, which can subtly help Qi Xiaohao control his weight and achieve his weight loss goal.

Cooperation benefits both sides and kills two birds with one stone.

After dinner, I practiced magic in Qi Xiaohao's basement for a while, then returned to my own living room to practice until late at night before going to bed.

There was no way around it; the floor in Wang Yi's living room was naturally incomparable to the floor in a professionally constructed training room. Once Wang Yi released the Black Rock Heavy Armor, the floor would shatter on the spot if he made even the slightest movement.

So now, apart from going to school and sleeping, Wang Yi spends most of his time at Qi Xiaohao's house.
