C1 Immortal Pact
The leaden, thick clouds were low.
The sky was still gloomy, but at least the rain had passed.
Xue Qilin stood at the edge of the hospital's roof and quietly looked up at the sky. The tall buildings surrounding the hospital were like a frame, framing the sky. The clouds continued to change, telling the passage of time.
After an unknown amount of time, the sound of footsteps broke the silence.
The person stopped next to the Xue Qilin. The Xue Qilin turned its head and saw a little boy in a Taoist robe standing beside it.
The little boy was shorter than the Xue Qilin by two heads. His hair was very long, and it almost reached the ground. He clearly only had a child's face, but his eyes were extremely deep. It was as if there were stars hidden in the sky, and there was a shocking light that was faintly discernible in his pupils.
The Xue Qilin knew the little boy's abilities better than anyone else.
In the eastern world of magic, there was a kind of existence that stood at the top of the world. They were all extraordinary and could overturn the clouds with a raise of their hands. People called them immortals, and this little boy named Qi Guiyuan was an immortal - a Martial Immortal who had cultivated martial arts to achieve the Great Dao.
How old Qi Guiyuan actually was? The Snow Qilin didn't know. All it knew was that Qi Guiyuan was a person who had returned to his youth.
"Is this really okay?" A young and tender voice suddenly sounded.
After a moment of silence, the Snow Qilin slowly opened its mouth and said,
"It's nothing, okay? Anyway, we won't be able to see each other again in the future. What can we do if we meet each other again? Why don't we just let her think that my uncle is already dead?"
In fact, he wanted to see her - his niece. He wanted to hear her call him uncle again.
But he didn't have the right. If it weren't for his carelessness, she wouldn't have fallen asleep because of a misstep. Most importantly, he couldn't do anything about it.
If it wasn't for the fact that the Snow Qilin had met Qi Guiyuan by chance a year ago and received his help, his niece would still be unconscious.
"You don't regret it?"
"Oh, wow, wow, wow. You only asked me now that things have come to this?" Xue Qilin couldn't help but laugh. "The only thing I regret is teaching her magic."
"Is that so?"
"I'll try my best to help you with the things you asked of me."
"Yes, saving a life is better than building a seven-storied pagoda. However, everyone is selfish, and this old one is no exception. So don't blame me for this."
His niece's situation was very complicated. Even Qi Guiyuan, who was an immortal, had to spend a whole year to save her. He had to pay an unimaginable price to wake her up, so the Snow Qilin didn't think that his request was too much.
But why not let his life stop for him, and not die for him? His niece's life was more important than freedom.
"I am thirty years old now. To put it bluntly, other than magic, I have achieved nothing else. You think so highly of me, and you want me to do this for you. It is a kind of... trust, isn't it?"
Xue Qilin shook its head in self-mockery. Then, it continued with a dissatisfied tone, "Speaking of which, old man, you are very long-winded sometimes."
"Hehe, it's natural for people to talk when they are old."
"Who cares about you! Speaking of which, you said that the current sect master of your sect is your great-granddaughter?"
"Hmm? Brat, don't tell me you have some bad intentions?"
"The children have their own good fortune. It's none of your business, right?"
"That's true. My granddaughter just turned sixteen."
"16? How high is it?" Xue Qilin asked with interest.
"Mm... If you put it in other words, she should be around 1.65 meters tall."
The eyes of the Xue Qilin instantly dimmed.
"What? Isn't it too tall? It's not mini at all."
"M-mini?"
"That's not it! Although its age is still acceptable, it's still too high."
"What are you talking about? He's too tall. He's not mini at all."
"Of course it's considered high, alright! 1.55 meters is already the limit."
"You... What should I say? Can't you change your lolicon personality?"
"If I don't change, what can you do to me? And you are not qualified to scold me!"
" What's wrong with a Royal Sis? Beer, bath, and eating tender grass. This old man has never heard of such a woman! "
"Tut, what's the difference between that and a tomboy?"
"Brat, you don't understand. The most charming thing about the imperial sister is her occasional gentle and considerate attitude. This kind of contrast... I really can't stand it.
"Yes, yes, yes. Hello Imperial Sister."
As the saying went, each vegetable and carrot had their own advantages. Xue Qilin didn't want to argue about it, so he casually agreed.
When Qi Guiyuan saw the Xue Qilin's disapproving expression, he shook his head helplessly.
Then, he put on a serious expression and stared at Xue Qilin as he asked, "Are you sure you don't regret it?"
"If I regret it now, what will you do?"
"Yes, I will bring you to court." Xue Qilin squatted down and teased.
"Aiya, but we only have a verbal agreement... If I deny it, you can't do anything to me without proof."
"Then, I will ..."
Qi Guiyuan glanced at the crotch of the Xue Qilin and clenched his fists.
The Snow Qilin, who was feeling uncomfortable under Qi Guiyuan's gaze, stood up and patted Qi Guiyuan's shoulder.
"Speaking of which, where is your granddaughter? Can you tell me now?"
As a reward for saving his niece, the Snow Qilin had to pay the price of its life to protect Qi Guiyuan's granddaughter. For this reason, Qi Guiyuan had even spent three months to pass half of his cultivation to him.
Qi Guiyuan did not tell him the details. His granddaughter's name was Qi Qiqi, and she was the head of a sect called the Heavenly Jade Palace - this was the only thing Xue Qilin knew about her.
"It's indeed time to tell you." The corner of Qi Guiyuan's mouth curled up slightly.
"Hey, wait!" Xue Qilin felt that something was wrong. "Why do you have that antagonistic smile?"
Qi Guiyuan stared at Xue Qilin for a long time before he asked, "Have you ever heard of a parallel world?"
A gust of cold wind blew past, and the Xue Qilin could vaguely hear the cries of the bird crows.
"Are you serious? Are you kidding me?"
The Snow Qilin felt that it must have been looking at a lunatic.
"Do I look like I'm joking?"
..."Can I go back on my word?"
"No."
Crashing, jumping off, getting struck by lightning, being sucked into the toilet bowl, being sucked into the computer, crashing... Once he thought of all the ways to transmigrate in novels, he immediately shivered.
"May I ask how I am going to get there...Well, where is your world?" Xue Qilin asked weakly.
"Of course, this old one will help you open the spatial tunnel! However..."
"But what?"
"The power of this old man is not as great as before, and I don't have a divine weapon in my hand. I'm afraid I won't be able to break through this space ..."
"Then...?"
"Since I don't have enough strength, I can only rely on external force."
"What external force?"
Boom.
Without even needing Qi Guiyuan to answer, the Snow Qilin had already guessed a thing or two about it.
He turned his head mechanically and saw that the sky had suddenly become covered in dark clouds. Winds were blowing and clouds were surging, and lightning was flashing.
"It can't be that I'm going to be struck by lightning ..."
"It's coming!"
Before the Snow Qilin could finish its sentence, Qi Guiyuan suddenly shouted.
Then -
The Xue Qilin was surrounded by a strong sense of floating.
However, very quickly, the feeling of floating turned into a strong centrifugal force.
He was pushed down the stairs by Qi Guiyuan.
"Qi Guiyuan, you old fart!"
The Snow Qilin roared as it looked at the lightning that was heading towards it.
