Chapter 151.1 - Family Token, Leaving Alone
Night fell.
Huan Ying and Mi Qi, one large and one small, were freshly bathed and wearing pajamas, happily chatting in the bedroom. Qi Bei, on the other hand, sat at the desk, looking at maps and making notes.
Jin Gang now controlled a territory of nearly ten thousand miles, with millions of orcs who had pledged their allegiance to him. He also commanded an army of three to four hundred thousand soldiers.
“If we expand three thousand miles in both directions, we can connect the borders of the Golden Leaf Empire, the Southern Jade Kingdom, and the Falling Sunset Kingdom. If anything happens to the Golden Leaf Empire, Jin Gang’s orc army can either bypass the city of Meng in the Golden Leaf Empire or take a detour along the border of these two Kingdoms,” Qi Bei thought to himself. When he accepted Jin Gang and Huan Ying, he hadn’t expected Jin Gang to become his most powerful weapon.
As the night grew late, Huan Ying and Mi Qi went from being enthusiastic to drowsy. Qi Bei got up and went to bed.
Just like last time, they both slept on either side of him. As soon as he lay down, Mi Qi nestled her head on his arm and fell into a deep sleep.
Qi Bei’s hand slipped into Huan Ying’s clothing, reaching for that peak. He lightly pinched and fondled, causing a tiny cherry on top to quickly harden, and Huan Ying’s breathing became hurried.
“Young Master…” Huan Ying weakly gasped.
Qi Bei glanced at Mi Qi, who was sleeping soundly, wanting to move her away a bit. But as soon as he made a move, she clung to him tightly, as if startled.
With her clinging to him like this, it was a bit difficult to do anything.
“Huan Ying, help me, my darling.” Qi Bei pointed to Huan Ying’s lips with his eyes.
Huan Ying’s body heated up. With a seductive smile, she bit her lips and slid her body beneath the blanket.
After a while, Qi Bei took a deep breath, and on the quilt, there was a head-shaped movement.
It’s unknown how much time passed, but Qi Bei shivered, and Huan Ying covered her mouth as she emerged from the blanket. She jumped off the bed and went into the bathroom.
Having such a beautiful and dedicated wife…what more could a man ask for!
Qi Bei fell asleep in contentment, and then he realized he had entered that void dream again, filled with twinkling lights.
“Here again…” Qi Bei wasn’t surprised this time. He enjoyed strolling among the lights, waiting for the appearance of the woman in the green dress.
Sure enough, after a while, the figure of the woman in the green dress appeared before Qi Bei. She turned her head and gazed at him with her beautiful eyes.
This time, Qi Bei didn’t reach out to touch her. Instead, he stared into her eyes.
Vaguely, Qi Bei felt that within her eyes, there was a world contained, but he couldn’t enter it yet.
After an unknown period of time, the woman in the green dress transformed into scattered lights and dissipated, while the lights in the void became slightly brighter.
Qi Bei continued walking forward, searching for the cluster of lights from his previous dream.
Soon, the cluster of lights appeared in his line of sight.
“Save us. Save us…” a voice floated out from the lights.
As Qi Bei approached, he could see five blurry figures inside.
“Who are you?” Qi Bei asked.
“We are people from the five Holy Lands. We are trapped here. Can you save us, senior?” a soft and delicate voice came from inside.
It was a woman’s voice, pleasant to the ears.
People from the five Holy Lands? Qi Bei was momentarily stunned. They referred to him as senior?
“What benefits will I gain from saving you?” Qi Bei’s thoughts raced as he casually spoke, while at the same time, his consciousness desperately tried to penetrate into the cluster of lights.
At that moment, the five figures inside the cluster of lights became clearer.
But just then, Qi Bei felt a sharp pain in his mind, and the dream quickly started to fade away.
“Senior, senior, please don’t leave…” the stunning woman dressed in fiery red clothes called out loudly from within the enclosed space of the void.
“He’s gone.” Crazy Elder helplessly remarked.
“Perhaps we didn’t answer immediately, which made this senior impatient,” said Leng Gu.
“I hope this senior will come again next time. If you all have any treasures, don’t hide them away. Even if they are precious, they are just worldly possessions. If we are trapped here for a lifetime; we would go crazy,” Yao Rao’s master said.
…
Qi Bei woke up from the dream, feeling that his soul had become stronger once again. It was a subtle feeling, but he could clearly sense it. For example, his thoughts could now extend thousands of meters, and he could perceive even the slightest sound, like the faint chirping of a bug.
“Ah, harder… Ah…” Just as Qi Bei’s thoughts extended to a house not far from the City Lord’s Mansion, he suddenly heard such a gasping voice.
Qi Bei’s thoughts paused, and he listened carefully, a slight smile on his lips.
Soon, a series of pounding sounds and Iron Head’s heavy panting followed.
“Iron Head, I’m about to climax… Ah… You’re amazing…”
Qi Bei withdrew his thoughts, chuckling to himself. He didn’t expect Liya, such a petite figure, to be so passionate in this regard.
At that moment, Qi Bei felt a small hand firmly gripping his lower body, and naturally, it belonged to…
“This little girl and her bad habits.” Qi Bei released Mi Qi’s small hand, fearing that this girl would once again treat his thing as a joystick.
Huan Ying, who had already woken up, suddenly pushed open the door and entered. She said to Qi Bei, “Young Master, a representative from the Nord Family is here, saying there is an urgent matter to see you.”
Qi Bei’s heart skipped a beat. Hopefully, nothing serious happened. He immediately jumped out of bed, dressed, and went out.
In the hall stood a short, merchant-looking man. As soon as he saw Qi Bei, he immediately bowed and said, “The Chief of the Nord Family’s Secret Chamber requests an audience with the Fifth Young Master.”
As the man spoke, he took out a token.
A family token! Qi Bei’s pupils shrank. He asked, “What instructions does the Patriarch have?”
The man didn’t answer directly but handed a letter to Qi Bei, saying, “This is the Patriarch’s personal letter. It can only be read by dropping the Fifth Young Master’s blood onto it.”
Qi Bei took the letter, and the man took his leave.
Qi Bei went to the study, opened the envelope, and took out a piece of paper made of an unknown material. It was completely blank, without a single word.
“It can only be seen with my blood?” Qi Bei mumbled to himself. He had no idea that the family had such a method.
With a snap of his fingers, a drop of blood fell onto the paper.
The blood quickly seeped into it, and soon, lines of text appeared on the surface. Qi Bei read it word by word and fell into contemplation.
For the 800th anniversary of the Nord family, all clan members who are outside are required to return, whether they are from the main branch or collateral branches. In the letter, the Patriarch instructed him to secretly return to the Golden Leaf Imperial City alone. He couldn’t even bring Xiao Jiu and Thirteen. He was to pass through the Falling Sunset Kingdom and first find a person in the Sunset Royal City of the kingdom. Then, that person would arrange for him to enter the Golden Leaf Imperial City.
“Old man, what are you planning? Is something really going to happen?” Qi Bei felt a slight uneasiness in his heart. He couldn’t help but feel that this Nord Family’s 800th grand anniversary had an unusual and strange aura.
