Live-in Son-in-law

Chapter 1434: Found Him

Qin Yi felt helpless; he was indeed unfamiliar with the Elf Clan and didn’t know where to find Qingcang to help.

Perhaps even before finding Qingcang, he would get lost himself.

After all, the Elf Clan is quite vast.

But without getting rid of Qingcang, Xiao Ye’s safety could never be guaranteed.

Qin Yi had no choice but to patiently teach Xiao Ye some simple games from Earth.

Playing with her while waiting for news from the Elf Clan.

Unfortunately, by midnight, the elves were exhausted, yet Qingcang was still not found.

Old Lady Hua arrived.

She warned Qin Yi to be careful, as Qingcang hated him the most now.

Qin Yi laughed, "It would be great if he actually came looking for me."

"By the way, Elder, could Qingcang have hidden in your Elf Clan’s Holy Land?"

Old Lady Hua shook her head.

"The Elf Clan’s Holy Land is where the Elf Holy Spring is. There are always people there, so Qingcang couldn’t possibly hide there."

Qin Yi said, "I’m not talking about the Elf Holy Spring. I mean the retreat of your Elf Clan’s strong warriors."

Old Lady Hua’s eyes narrowed upon hearing this, staring at Qin Yi, "What do you know?"

"I know your Elf Clan has powerful individuals standing guard. Previously, during the confrontation with Qingcang, your Clan Leader was not his match. In a moment of crisis, if I hadn’t intervened, your Elf Clan’s strong warriors would have."

"Back then, I had a brief conversation with those strong warriors of your clan."

Old Lady Hua looked at Qin Yi with doubt.

Qin Yi’s gaze turned slightly cold, somewhat displeased.

Old Lady Hua coughed lightly, "Please don’t misunderstand, Young Master Qin. Only a few people know that our clan has strong warriors. Your sudden revelation was quite shocking to me."

"However, Qingcang wouldn’t be that foolish, right? Hiding in the retreat of our clan’s warriors would be suicidal?"

Qin Yi stated indifferently, "It might be possible. Often the most dangerous place is the safest. You should let the Elf Clan Leader take a look."

Old Lady Hua nodded, "I will relay your message to the Clan Leader."

"Young Master Qin, it’s late. Rest well. If there is any news, I will send someone to inform you. To keep safe, let Xiao Ye stay with you for now."

Qin Yi gave a slight nod.

After seeing off Old Lady Hua, Qin Yi fell into deep thought again.

All of a sudden, Qin Yi seemed to have a thought? Yet, like a fleeting shadow, he couldn’t quite grasp it.

"If you keep frowning, you’ll turn into an old man," Yun Mengyao teased.

"Why don’t you play with Xiao Ye? What games are you teaching her? I keep losing."

"You’re so bad at this, losing to a child."

Qin Yi mocked instinctively but suddenly had a moment of inspiration, muttering, "The most dangerous place is the safest... Yes... If I were Qingcang, where would I hide?"

Yun Mengyao looked speechless, shaking her head, "Here we go again. You’re almost becoming a lunatic."

Qin Yi transmitted his thoughts using Divine Thought, calling Yin Qianqian.

"Please take care to protect them, I’m going out for a while."

Yin Qianqian lazily said, "By your look, you’ve figured out where Qingcang is hiding, haven’t you?"

"I’m not certain yet, but I have to check."

"Go ahead, I’ll ensure their safety."

...

Under the moonlight, a figure glided silently like Liu Guang, stopping in front of a tree house.

This tree house looked exquisite, the balcony in front was full of colorful flowers, clearly indicating it was a girl’s residence.

The person was Qin Yi.

The tree house before him was Hua Nian’s residence.

Divine Thought unfolded, enveloping a radius of one kilometer.

Qin Yi suspected Qingcang might be hiding at Hua Nian’s place.

In this situation, with Hua Nian with him, this house had been vacated.

If he were Qingcang hiding here, no one would think of it.

Or perhaps by hiding here, he could lie in wait for an opportunity; once Hua Nian returned, there would be an additional hostage.

However, with Divine Thought sweeping around, the details of Hua Nian’s room were vividly mapped into Qin Yi’s mind, but Qingcang’s presence was not detected.

Qin Yi felt a bit disappointed, seemingly guessing wrong.

Just as he was about to leave, his expression shifted suddenly, having detected a faint aura earlier.

Though fleeting, that aura couldn’t escape Qin Yi’s Divine Thought.

Moreover, he was very familiar with this aura, it belonged to Qingcang.

Qin Yi strengthened his Divine Thought, beginning to capture it carefully.

Sure enough, soon he caught Qingcang’s presence again.

Qingcang was hiding in a tree house several hundred meters away.

This tree house...

Qin Yi frowned; this is Xiao Ye’s tree house.

This tree house was small, and the belongings inside were Xiao Ye’s.

Qin Yi’s eyes turned cold; the direction of his guess was correct. But Qingcang was smarter, hiding in Xiao Ye’s tree house.

Xiao Ye was more critical to the Elf Clan than Hua Nian. Capturing Xiao Ye meant grabbing a vital amulet.

"You’re doomed."

Qin Yi’s figure flickered in front of Xiao Ye’s tree house.

Qingcang’s presence was faint, sitting in the corner of the room, not daring to absorb the spiritual power of heaven and earth for cultivation, instead healing using Earth Spirit Stones, which wouldn’t alert others.

Really cunning.

Qin Yi plucked a leaf from a branch nearby, casually tossing it out.

The leaf transformed into a fierce light, tearing through the air, piercing the wooden walls of the hut, shooting towards Qingcang inside.

Qingcang, in the midst of healing, suddenly widened his eyes, his face changed drastically, sensing a terrifying danger.

Even more shocking was that if anyone approached, he would immediately detect it.

Now, with the opponent already attacking, he hadn’t sensed the opponent’s aura.

As fast as it was happening, Qingcang swiftly formed a sword with his fingers, slashing out a Sword Qi.

"Bang!"

His Sword Qi was directly cleaved apart from the middle by the leaf, explosively scattering, sweeping through the room, all of Xiao Ye’s furniture was destroyed.

Qin Yi smiled wryly; Xiao Ye would surely be distressed.

A single leaf shattered the Sword Qi, its momentum unabated.

Despite Qingcang’s best efforts to dodge, his shoulder was cut by the leaf, leaving a deep wound revealing bone, and blood quickly stained his sleeve.

Qingcang groaned, face twisted in pain. The terrifying force of the leaf knocked him backward, crashing out through the wooden wall.

Qingcang harnessed his energy, stopping the flowing blood, took to the sky, eyes sharp, scanning around to find the attacker.

"Are you looking for me?"

A voice echoed behind Qingcang.

Qingcang stared in horror, whirling around quickly.

Upon seeing Qin Yi, he froze.

"Your healing is awfully slow; if it were me, I would’ve recovered long ago."

"Given chances, yet you failed. You deserve to die."

Qin Yi looked at him with contempt.

"Qin Yi."

Qingcang grit his teeth in hatred, his teeth grinding, wishing to pounce and kill Qin Yi.

"Why call me? Do you have any last words you want me to relay to Sword Sect? Rest assured... I won’t."

"Qingcang, I want you to vanish without a trace, with no one remembering you. On the path to the afterlife, you’ll only be a wandering ghost."
