Chapter 67

With the help of the spirit-enhancing talisman, Qin Yu quickly entered the state of clarity again. However, after just a few strokes with the wolf-hair brush, he found himself at a standstill.

"This third-grade talisman is much more difficult than the second-grade one," Qin Yu said with a bitter smile. For the second-grade talisman, he only needed to use his mental power to copy the pattern, but for the third-grade talisman, he had to be flawless and have sufficient mental power to support the process.

Qin Yu had just stalled because the mental power in his body couldn't keep up with the rate of consumption. The lack of mental power caused him to stop writing.

As soon as he started, Qin Yu felt his mental power rapidly flowing through the wolf-hair brush into the talisman pattern. The demand was far greater than the supply. These few strokes seemed like a large water pump, while his body was like a small tap, and the water coming out was far from enough to meet the pump's needs.

The situation caught Qin Yu off guard. At this rate, there was no way he could complete the Heaven Stealing Talisman. Unless his mental power could keep up with the consumption, which would require him to reach the Third Rank Master level, it was unrealistic to advance from the Second Rank to the Third Rank in just one night.

"What should I do?" Qin Yu became a bit agitated. The sky outside had already turned dark, and it was only a few hours until the hour of Chen. If he couldn't help the Hidden Dragon soar at that time, it might anger the Hidden Dragon, and his future father-in-law would suffer a great disaster.

While Qin Yu was agitated, far away in a hotel room, Mo Yongxing was lying on the sofa in his underwear, watching a beauty pageant on TV.

Suddenly, the sword Zuiying, which had been lying quietly in the box, flew out without warning and hovered in front of Mo Yongxing, pointing its tip at him.

"You... What do you want? I didn't provoke you this time," Mo Yongxing was startled, his face turning pale as he weakly said to Zuiying.

"Buzz, buzz" Zuiying's tip shifted direction and pointed at Mo Yongxing's buttocks on the sofa, moving slowly. Mo Yongxing quickly jumped up to avoid the tip.

"Damn, you're serious?" Mo Yongxing stood up and shouted at Zuiying.

Zuiying ignored Mo Yongxing's shouting and pointed its tip at the door, then at Mo Yongxing.

"What do you mean? You want to go out? If you want to go out, just go. Why stab me?" Mo Yongxing understood but felt even more frustrated. If you want me to open the door for you, just point at the door. Why stab me?

"Master Sword, I've opened the door for you. You can come and go as you please," Mo Yongxing said, opening the door and pouting at Zuiying.

Unfortunately, Zuiying didn't appreciate it and pointed its tip at Mo Yongxing again, as if about to stab him. Mo Yongxing quickly shouted, "Master Sword, Lord Sword, what else do you want? I've opened the door for you. If you have any other requests, just tell me, and I'll do my best to fulfill them."

Zuiying's tip first pointed at the long box, then at Mo Yongxing, and finally at the door.

"Do you want me to put you in this box and take you out?" Mo Yongxing guessed and asked.

Zuiying's tip tapped a few times, confirming Mo Yongxing's guess.

"If I take you out, where do you want to go?"

Swish!

Zuiying's body turned and flew to a spot on the sofa, the same spot where Qin Yu had sat earlier.

"Do you want me to take you to Qin Yu?"

Seeing Zuiying's tip nod, Mo Yongxing's eyes rolled, and a lecherous look appeared on his face.

"Is this sword a female sword? It's only been a short time since you left Qin Yu, and you already want to find him. Could it be that you want to have a romantic relationship with him?"

Thinking of Qin Yu hugging the sword, Mo Yongxing couldn't help but laugh. But before he could laugh long, he felt a sharp pain in his buttocks.

"Ouch!"

No need to say, the pain in his buttocks was caused by Zuiying. Mo Yongxing touched his buttocks and found a small hole in his pants, but fortunately, it hadn't pierced his skin.

"I'm afraid of you. I'll call Qin Yu and ask for his address, then take you to him."

Mo Yongxing deliberately used the words "your Qin Yu," but the simple Zuiying didn't catch the lecherous tone. Seeing Mo Yongxing take out his phone, Zuiying hovered in the air and didn't move.

"Hey, Qin Yu, your 'that one' wants to find you."

"Mine? Who?"

Qin Yu, who was in the study, was agitated when he saw the call. As soon as he answered, he heard Mo Yongxing's vague words.

"It's your sword, the sword."

"Are you talking about Zuiying? What's wrong? Why does he want to find me?" Qin Yu didn't catch the lecherous tone in Mo Yongxing's words and asked.

"I don't know what's wrong. He suddenly flew out of the box and wanted me to take him to you. Otherwise, he would stab me. Your 'that one' is really fierce..."

"What do you mean 'your that one'? Nonsense." Qin Yu frowned and interrupted Mo Yongxing. Why would Zuiying want to find him?

Could it be? Qin Yu thought of the description in the Zhuge Inner Canon about the master-recognized magical tools. Once a magical tool with a spirit recognizes its master, there will be a mental connection between the spirit and the master. If the master encounters difficulties or danger, the spirit will sense it. Could it be that Zuiying sensed his agitation over the Heaven Stealing Talisman?

"Then, the reason Zuiying is in such a hurry to find me is..." Qin Yu's eyes sparkled. If Zuiying knew about his agitation and was in a hurry to find him, could it be that Zuiying had a way to solve his problem?

"Bring Zuiying to Jingxiu District right now. I'll meet you at the entrance of the residential area." Qin Yu excitedly shouted into the phone.

"Got it." Mo Yongxing hung up and looked up at the hovering Zuiying. "Go back into the box. I'll take you to your Qin Yu."

...

By the time Mo Yongxing drove to Jingxiu District, it was already 9 PM. This was the time when the traffic in GZ was the heaviest, and Mo Yongxing had been stuck in traffic for nearly an hour.

"Why did it take so long? Where's Zuiying?" As soon as Mo Yongxing's car appeared, Qin Yu rushed over and asked through the open window.

"He's in the back seat. What's the rush? The traffic in GZ is as bad as in the capital. I was stuck in traffic all the way from the overpass."

"Drive straight in. I've already talked to the guards at the entrance." Qin Yu opened the car door, got into the back seat, picked up the long wooden box, and said to Mo Yongxing.

"Got it." Mo Yongxing nodded, and the car turned into the residential area, where the gate was already open.

"Zuiying, did you come to me because you have a way to solve my problem?" In the car, Qin Yu couldn't wait to open the box and hold Zuiying, asking.

"Ya!" Zuiying's childish voice echoed in Qin Yu's mind, confirming his guess.

"That's great. I was so agitated about this problem."

Qin Yu was so excited that he wanted to kiss Zuiying. This made Mo Yongxing, who was watching through the rearview mirror, smile even more lecherously. It seemed that both the man and the sword had feelings for each other, truly a deep bond.

"Qin Yu, the person you came to see earlier is the owner of this villa?"

Mo Yongxing parked the car in front of Meng Feng's villa, and a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Yes, what's wrong? Do you know the owner of this villa?"

"Of course, I know. This is the villa of Meng Feng, the second-generation leader of the Meng family in the capital. I visited him a few days ago."

Mo Yongxing replied to Qin Yu but didn't mention that another reason for his visit to the Meng family was Meng Feng's daughter, Meng Yao, Qin Yu's girlfriend.

The Meng family, like the Mo family, was a powerful family in the capital. The elders of the Mo family intended for Mo Yongxing to marry Meng Feng's daughter, Meng Yao, which would form an alliance between the two families.

Mo Yongxing himself didn't mind. His future wife would definitely be a young lady from another powerful family, and Meng Yao was said to be a top beauty with a good temper, so marrying her wouldn't be bad.

Fortunately, Mo Yongxing didn't tell Qin Yu about these matters, or Qin Yu might have used Zuiying to stab a few holes in Mo Yongxing's back, which would be like digging a hole in Qin Yu's wall right in front of him.
