Liang Shangshan silently criticized his hypocrisy while outwardly praising his righteousness, trying to soothe him. People become more cautious about their lives as they age; if danger truly arose, the two of us old brothers would surely run faster than you.
"Don't drag me into your nonsense," Qi Hao retorted.
Hmph! With a face that looks over twenty years younger than mine, who would believe you if you said you weren't afraid of death?
Ignoring the verbal sparring among the group, Qi Xiaomian continued at his own pace. After analyzing a few more details, he stepped forward.
Hey, this young man is just too impatient, Liang Shangshan shouted, reminding him again that the fire looked suspicious. We should observe a bit longer.
Before he could finish speaking, Sang Qingxiao began drawing symbols in mid-air. The lines of the rune were initially formed from water, but slowly, they crystallized into ice. The rune floated in the air, enveloping not just that small area.
Even from dozens of steps away, Liang Shangshan could feel the temperature around them plummeting as if winter had suddenly arrived. He shivered and sighed; this girl Ji Qingqing is impressive! Drawing runes in mid-air—she must be at least at the Spirit Master Realm. Just look at her clean and swift movements; she must be of considerable rank within the Spirit Master Realm. No wonder she could capture generals like Black General and Misha.
I initially thought she was just another young person who had received help from her family's elders to recruit two generals, but it turns out she did it all by herself. Tsk tsk, Old Man really underestimated her this time.
Liang Shangshan turned to Su Songhua. "You know her, right? Who is she?"
Su Songhua replied, "Miss Sang is not someone of my stature to comment on."
Qi Xiaopeng couldn't stand seeing Qi Xiaomian being outdone and surrounded by so many capable people. Frustrated and unable to vent his anger elsewhere, he coldly huffed after hearing Su Songhua's words. "When I asked you before, you dodged the question like this too. Su Songhua, have you forgotten that you're hired by my Qi Family? How can you side with outsiders?"
"Third Young Master Qi," Su Songhua replied calmly, "I am merely here as a hired hand for your family; I am not here to gossip about your affairs. If I were to speak freely about your family matters, would you be pleased?"
"Enough," Qi Xiao Kun interjected, stopping Qi Xiaopeng. "Master Su, my younger brother tends to speak without thinking; please don't take it to heart. We are here for something important."
I see that girl’s symbols are quite effective; I wonder if both of you masters have similar skills to help us enter safely?
Su Songhua replied honestly, "We are still only at the Celestial Master level."
Qi Xiaopeng scoffed at that.
Hearing this made Su Songhua uncomfortable; after all, they were merely Great Ancestors and nothing without the Qi Family's backing. He thought this but kept a cold expression on his face. The price for a Demon Catcher was set in stone; the Qi Family offered a price for hiring a Celestial Master.
As for the Spirit Master Realm? It was priceless; sometimes even if the price was right, it depended on whether the person was in the mood to accept it.
Qi Xiao Kun chuckled. "So we can't get in?"
I hadn't finished what I was saying earlier; after all, it's important to clarify things. We don't want anyone to think that we, the Demon Catchers, are just in it for the money without delivering results.
Su Songhua implied that the First Family of the Jianghu had only sent a Guard Captain to the Su Family to request assistance. Fortunately, there was an elder from the Spirit Master Realm available at the Su Family. When they recommended him, they claimed they couldn't do it, but in reality, they thought the price was too high.
If they found it expensive and troublesome, it would be better for them not to serve such a family in the future. Although he felt disdainful about it, he couldn't let things get awkward between them.
Su Songhua politely said, "While we may not be from the Spirit Master Realm, we do carry paper talismans from our family's elders in that realm. Although these talismans may not be as powerful as those drawn by Miss Sang, they are more than sufficient for entering and exiting this Fire City."
