They stayed in Flowing Wave City for about a month.

It was mainly because Xiao Bai saw the bustling human world and was curious in his heart. He was temporarily unwilling to leave. Every day, he would pester Li Qing to take her shopping. He was very happy.

During this period of time, Li Qing relied on the effects of the Cloud Soul Pill to cultivate the Phantom Shadow Steps and the Phantom Shadow Steps to the Great Perfection Realm. With such a deep foundation, he could be said to be experienced in concealment. He continuously tried to combine these two secret arts, taking their advantages, and finally succeeded in creating a new secret art.

Li Qing named this new secret technique “Devil Shadow Steps”.

Not only could the Devil Shadow Steps transform into invisible shadows that hid in the void, they could also travel through the void like ghosts, leaving behind afterimages that were hard to fathom.

With such a miraculous secret art, Li Qing’s ability to protect himself was even stronger. Even if he faced experts at the fourth level of the Void Realm, he was confident that he would be able to escape unscathed.

During this period, the news of Ji Bai and Protector Liu disappearing gradually spread, causing a commotion. After all, a peak Xiantian expert like Ji Bai could already be considered a powerful figure. He held a pivotal position on Flowing Wave Island, only below Void Realm experts.

Such an expert suddenly disappeared for no apparent reason, naturally attracting people’s attention. According to their speculation, if they were able to sneak into Flowing Wave Island and capture Ji Bai and Protector Liu, they would need at least a Void Realm expert to do so.

“Even a Void Realm expert dares to provoke him. This Ji Bai is truly bold. Do you really think he can protect himself on Flowing Wave Island?” Someone laughed coldly.

“Ghost-Faced Scholar is treacherous and cunning. He must repay his vengeance. Relying on the power of Flowing Wave Island, he has done a lot of bad things. This time, he has finally suffered retribution.”

This matter caused chicks to fly and dogs to jump, Flowing Wave Island sent people to search the entire city, sealing off the sea area. Under such a big action, they really found a clue.

Some people claimed to have seen an unfamiliar Void Realm expert fly down from the sky and enter Flowing Wave Island about a month ago. Because the Void Realm expert’s speed was too fast, he could not see his appearance clearly. He could only guess that this was a young man’s face.

According to the clues provided by the witnesses, the day after the Void Realm expert entered Flowing Wave Island, Ji Bai and Protector Liu suddenly disappeared. The timing was quite consistent.

From this, one could basically conclude that it was this unfamiliar Void Realm expert who had captured Ji Bai.

Apart from Ji Bai and Protector Liu, the five disciples on Cloud Water Peak also disappeared. On the surface, these people did not seem to have any special connection, but if they dug carefully, they would discover one thing in common, and that was that they had once gone to the Deepblue Water Manor to trade spirit herbs together.

Based on this clue, Flowing Wave Island sent people to the Indigo Aquatic Manor overnight to inquire about it. Very quickly, they found out the background of the matter. It turned out that the murderer was Han Tie, who had recently become famous!

…

“The people of Flowing Wave Island are quite capable. They discovered that I was the one who did this so quickly.” Li Qing looked at the wanted portraits on the streets of Flowing Wave City and sneered.

“These people are really bad.” Xiao Bai frowned.

“Don’t worry, they won’t be able to find us.” Li Qing said confidently. He and Xiao Bai both had the ability to change their bodies, and even Void Realm experts couldn’t see any flaws with their divine sense. Walking the streets openly, who would know that they were the two people on the wanted portrait?

“After staying in Flowing Wave City for such a long time, we’ve had enough fun. Let’s leave in a few days.” Li Qing said.

“Alright.” Xiao Bai said reluctantly.

“Don’t be so worried. This isn’t the only prosperous place in the world. I’ll take you to other places after leaving.” Li Qing comforted.

“Mm-hmm!” Xiao Bai nodded repeatedly.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to eat delicious food.” Li Qing pulled Xiao Bai to the most famous restaurant in Flowing Wave City.

As soon as they entered the restaurant, they heard the guests inside discussing about Ji Bai’s disappearance.

“I heard that the murderer is the recently famous Han Tie…”

“I didn’t expect that Han Tie’s strength would actually reach this level and silently capture Ji Bai. Could it be that this person is really comparable to a Void Realm expert?” Someone said.

“It doesn’t matter if you’re strong, you can still fly. This Han Tie is no different from a true Void Realm expert.”

“Speaking of which, what exactly is Han Tie’s origin? Why does he feel like he suddenly appeared? Could he be someone who came from the outside world to live in seclusion in the East China Sea?”

Li Qing took Xiao Bai to the second floor and sat down by the window. He ordered a sumptuous table of delicacies and enjoyed the rising and falling tide scenery outside the window. He was leisurely and leisurely.

After Xiao Bai tasted these human delicacies, he became obsessed with this dao. Every day, he begged Li Qing to bring her out to taste something delicious.

At this moment, a gentle voice sounded from behind him, “Excuse me, can I have a seat here?”

Li Qing turned around and saw a middle-aged man wearing a Confucian robe with an aura of self-prestige. Beside him was a graceful woman with a black veil on her face.

“This is … Yin Qianyu?” Li Qing recognized her at a glance and couldn’t help but feel his heart sink. “How did you meet her here? Could it be a coincidence?”

“May I have a seat?” The middle-aged man asked again.

Li Qing regained his composure and calmly said, “Sure, please sit down!”

He looked different now. Yin Qianyu shouldn’t be able to recognize him, so why should she panic?

The middle-aged man sat down and said to Yin Qianyu behind him, “Sit down as well.”

“Yes!” Yin Qianyu said respectfully.

Seeing this scene, Li Qing secretly guessed that this middle-aged man should be a big shot in Diabolism. Otherwise, Yin Qianyu would not be so respectful.

At the very least, he was a Void Realm expert!

Upon closer inspection, he discovered that this person’s aura was unfathomable, as if it was much more terrifying than the Void Realm experts he had encountered in the past.

However, in the blink of an eye, the middle-aged man’s aura was plain and indifferent, like a mortal.

“This person is not simple. He has already reached the realm of returning to nature. I can’t see through him!” Li Qing’s heart trembled.

The middle-aged man’s expression was indifferent as he picked up the wine jug, poured a glass of wine, and took a sip. Yin Qianyu, on the other hand, did not look sideways and sat upright. She seemed to be a little nervous and did not even dare to breathe.

The atmosphere fell silent for a moment. The few of them looked at each other and were speechless. They could only vaguely hear what was said downstairs, as well as the rising and falling sounds of the tide outside.

“May I have Senior’s surname, Gao!” Li Qing broke the silence.

“Yin Tianhong.”

“Is it also surnamed Yin? Could it have anything to do with Yin Qianyu?” Li Qing thought to himself.

“Meeting is fate. Little brother, can I ask you a question?” The middle-aged man suddenly said.

“Excuse me.”

“I wonder what your understanding of demons is?” The middle-aged man looked at Li Qing.

“Demon?” Li Qing’s gaze narrowed as he quietly said, “The word ‘Devil’ naturally represents the evil devil’s perverse path.”

“Then if there is a righteous person who is doing Diabolism’s work, do you dare to ask if this person is a devil?”

“Naturally, it’s a devil!”

“If there is a person from Diabolism who has been doing something righteous, is that person a devil?”

“Naturally!”

“Little brother is a reasonable person.” Yin Tianhong smiled faintly.

“What’s the point of Senior asking me such a question?”

“Nothing. I just want to know what kind of person you are.” Yin Tianhong gulped down the wine cup in his hand and continued to ask, “If I invite you to join the Myriad Demon Sect now, would you be willing?”

Li Qing’s expression changed as he said in a deep voice, “Senior, what are you joking about? Why should I join the Myriad Demon Sect?”

“As the saying goes, trees are good for shading. If you can join the Myriad Demon Sect, then you don’t have to worry about being chased by others. Isn’t that a good thing?”

“Pursue? I don’t quite understand what Senior is saying.” Li Qing expressionlessly shook his head.

“You have something special in your hand. Can you show it to me?” The middle-aged man said.

“What is it?”

“A broadsword, a purple broadsword!” The middle-aged man said in a deep voice.

Hearing this, Li Qing’s heart trembled. He no longer had any luck. He coldly said, “It seems like you guys have already discovered my identity!”

“Of course. Otherwise, why do you think I’m sitting here? Could it be that I’m really here to see the scenery?” The middle-aged man smiled.

Yin Qianyu echoed, “Li Qing, although your disguise technique is somewhat powerful, it is impossible for you to conceal it from the devil…”

“How did you discover my identity?”

Yin Qianyu said, “Ever since the moment you entered Flowing Wave Island, you have always been in the line of sight of adults. Everything you have done during this period has been clearly seen by adults.”

Hearing this, Li Qing’s heart stirred up a storm. “Just what kind of strength is this Yin Tianhong? He was actually able to quietly monitor him for so long!”

Normally speaking, even if his divine sense swept past him, he would still be able to sense it. Just what method did the other party use to observe for such a long time, yet he didn’t know anything about it?

Could it be that the other party’s divine sense had far surpassed his own, making it impossible for him to be discovered?

“Are you lying to me?” Li Qing was doubtful.

“Why would I lie to you?” Yin Qianyu sneered, “The person who infiltrated Mount Liubo and captured General Ji Bai alive is you, right? The little girl next to you is a cloud demon. Am I right?”

“Looks like everything you said is true. I’ve been under your surveillance all this time.” Li Qing frowned. Wasn’t Yin Tianhong able to see all the secrets on his body?
