Chapter 108 Knowing the danger, but not turning back
Chi Ming's breakthrough to the bone-joining realm is great news for Qi Hao.
He did not rush directly to the mountain gate with Chi Ming, but first went to Chi Ming's home, Lingqin Mountain under the Seven Peaks.
Most of all the spiritual birds in Qifeng live on this mountain.
Looking around, all of them are spiritual birds. Some are basking in the sun, some are drinking tea in the courtyard, and some spiritual birds are teaching the small spiritual birds the art of breathing.
"There are a total of five kinds of spiritual birds in the Seven Peaks Spirit Bird Mountain. Our Crane Clan is the strongest, and my father is a strong man of the Crane Clan and has reached the peak state of bone integration."
"Look, the small mountain in front is my home. My father has nothing to do today, so he happens to be at home."
Along the way, Chi Ming kept introducing Qi Hao.
They came here not to show off, but to ask Chi Ming's father to cover Chi Ming's aura.
Looking from a distance, on a small mountain peak, a huge crane is breathing, with flames surrounding its body.
"Do you, the crane clan, have fire attributes?" Qi Hao asked in surprise.
Spiritual birds and beasts, like humans, also have attributes. Qingyang's attribute, Qi Hao has judged, should be the wood attribute.
In his opinion, the Crane clan is not good at fighting and should be of wood or water attributes.
"No, the Xianhe clan has the wood attribute. As I told you, our lineage has the blood of the Xuanhe clan, so my father awakened the fire attribute." Chi Ming explained.
"So that's it, Chi Ming, what are your attributes?" Qi Hao asked.
"I prefer wood attributes."
"Preferring wood attributes, what do you mean? Do you have dual attributes?"
Under normal circumstances, whether they are humans or demonic beasts and spiritual birds, they only have one attribute.
Moreover, attributes are innate and cannot be changed through practice.
Qi Hao is a special case, so he cannot be counted.
There are also a small number of people who possess multiple attributes, just like colored jade bones. They are very rare and can only be chosen one in a million.
Those who have both attributes at the same time are geniuses among geniuses and can instantly kill people of the same level.
"Yes, I have two attributes, but both attributes are relatively weak, almost non-existent. My father said that my fire attribute is very weak, and my wood attribute is stronger. But fire overcomes wood, so both attributes are weak.
So I can only practice some simple exercises."
Chiming looked at his father, full of envy.
Qi Hao understood clearly that Chi Ming's attributes were of little use, let alone a genius.
As he spoke, Chiming fell into the courtyard, ran to his father, and screamed.
"Have you broken through to the bone-joining realm? How is this possible?"
Chi Ming's father, Chi Hong, looked at Chi Ming carefully with a gloomy expression.
"You didn't take forbidden elixirs, you didn't burn your blood, there's nothing wrong with it, you've truly made a breakthrough. My child, how did you do that?"
After making sure that Chi Ming was okay, Chi Hong showed a smile.
"It was Qi Hao who gave me a large amount of spiritual stones and high-grade elixirs. I made a breakthrough overnight. Father, I am much more talented than you." Chi Ming said happily.
"Outer disciple Qi Hao, I met my uncle. I had to go down the mountain to perform a mission, which would be dangerous, so I spent spiritual stones to improve Chi Ming's realm. I just don't know if this is the right thing to do." Qi Hao said.
Chi Hong then moved his eyes away from Chi Ming, looked at Qi Hao, and said with a smile: "Our spirit bird race is different from your human race, there are not so many taboos. As long as you don't take taboo medicine, don't burn your life and blood
, it will not have any impact on subsequent practice. Qi Hao, I thank you." Chi Hong felt from the bottom of his heart.
Over the years, he had also prepared some savings for Chi Ming, but he was reluctant to waste them like this.
Yes, wasteful.
"This is best, uncle, we came to you because we want you to help cover up Chi Ming's aura." Qi Hao said.
"This is not difficult. We, the spirit bird clan, have our own ways to cover it up. Just wait a moment."
Chi Hong said and was about to leave with Chi Ming.
"Father, don't worry. I want my mother to take a look. Qi Hao, follow me to the back mountain."
"Chiming, you can go alone. I won't go. I want to chat with my uncle for a while."
"All right."
Chi Ming was a little disappointed, but said nothing more and spread his wings and flew away.
It wasn't until his figure disappeared that Chi Hong slowly spoke: "Although Chi Ming recognizes you as his lord, it is not in line with the etiquette of the human race that you did not meet the mistress of the house for the first time. This kid, you are not
You rude person, I guess you have something to say and you don’t want Chi Ming to hear it.”
Qi Hao smiled. No wonder Chi Hong plays an important role in Qifeng. His intelligence, wisdom and insight surpass that of many human beings.
He took a deep breath and said solemnly: "Uncle, Chi Ming and I are friends, not masters and servants. Uncle, I am going down the mountain with Senior Brother Han Ziqing today, but I don't trust him and am worried that he will take action against me."
He didn't hide anything and just said what was in his heart.
If Chi Hong was worried about Chi Ming and wouldn't let Chi Ming go down the mountain with him, he would admit it.
But if he didn't tell him, he wouldn't be able to explain if Chi Ming was killed.
"But you decided to go." Chihong said calmly.
"Now that I have promised, I can't break my promise. What's more, Senior Brother Han has helped me a lot. I can't label my friends as enemies just because of suspicion." Qi Hao answered from the bottom of his heart.
"Haha, do you know that Han Ziqing has killed many of his fellow disciples in recent years?" Chi Hong asked with a smile.
"Is this serious?"
"Although there is no definite evidence, nine out of ten of them were done by Han Ziqing. There are people from our Seventh Peak, and there are also people from other peaks. We know about fifty or sixty, and there may be even more that we don't know. However,
, I’ve been friends with him, but he hasn’t killed many.”
Not many people were killed? That’s all.
Could it be that Han Ziqing really wanted to kill him?
Qi Hao understood the meaning of Chi Hong's words, but for a moment he didn't know how to respond.
"Since the sect knows, why is there no punishment?"
"It's very simple. Han Ziqing is strong enough, but there is not enough evidence. Furthermore, when disciples go out for training, death is a common occurrence. Although Qingya Sect does not allow fellow disciples to kill each other, many people secretly attack them. Most of the sects do not
I’ll take it into consideration.”
"Junior understands."
"Then do you still want to go down the mountain?"
"want!"
After making a decision, Qi Hao answered in the affirmative.
"Haha, yes, no wonder Chihong will choose you. People can't stop eating because of choking, and practitioners can't shrink because of danger. You don't have to worry too much, Chiming has chosen you, no matter life or death, glory or lowliness, that's all
He chose it himself. Even if he really died fighting for you, I will only feel honor for him instead of venting my anger on you."
Chi Hong looked at Qi Hao with eyes filled with admiration.
