Chapter 52: Night Exploration (Fourth Update)

  Don't mention the careless and absent-minded Yi Chi here.

  The elders and masters of the Yi family had yet to come up with a conclusion, everyone looked at each other, but no one spoke up.

  Although he was anxious in his heart, Yi Yun also had no way to deal with these elders.

  "Alright, everyone disperse. Tell the younger ones to behave themselves and not cause any trouble, lest they offend those two families. Disperse!" After saying this, Yi Yun somewhat lazily finished speaking, then respectfully bowed to Liu and walked straight towards the back hall.

  The people sitting also stunned for a moment, then also bowed to Liu Lao and went down.

  Liu Lao shook his head, also didn't know what it meant, and casually cancelled that spell, then disappeared.

  ......

  The night is getting deeper.

  In Jinghe Courtyard, Yi Chi was thinking about something in his room.

  "Should we go take a look today?" Yi Chi muttered to himself in annoyance.

  He really wants to go to Yi Hang to investigate, but he's also afraid of startling the snake by cutting the grass, and now he's wavering back and forth.

  "Afraid of what? As long as you're careful, they won't discover you." Yitang said.

  After thinking for a moment, Yi Chi nodded his head.

  It's also, as long as you're careful, even a spirit fighter can't detect you, what are you afraid of then?

  "Alright, let's go take a look today and see what kind of nonsense Yi Hang is up to." Yi Chi said confidently.

  Having thought it over, he no longer hesitated.

  Change.

  A wisp of thin fog flashed by, and Yi Chi had turned into a small cat.

  "Heh heh, this way, even if I'm discovered, it's not like it matters. Who would care about a cat?" said Yi Chi, who had transformed into a cat, in an eerie tone.

  What's strange about a cat opening its mouth and speaking?

  "You fool, this world doesn't have any cats, who knows if you're some kind of dangerous demon or not." Yitang said loudly.

  "Troublesome, but it's better than being human-shaped. Easier to deal with." Yi Chi thought for a moment and agreed, "But this is much more convenient than having a human body."

  Of course, there are many more convenient ones, such as mosquitoes and flies, but unfortunately, Yi Chi's cheap transformation technique can only transform into a creature that is ten times smaller than his own body shape. Transforming into a cat was already quite strenuous, and this cat's head is still quite big.

  Meow~

  Learned to call the cat, after calling out, Yi Chi seemed very satisfied.

  He leaped out of the window and disappeared into the night.

  ......

  Gyōten-in

  This is the courtyard where Yi Hang lives, which is not the small courtyard of Yi Chi. According to the tradition of the Yi family, the residence of the heir of the Yi family is arranged in the order of Tian, Di, Xuan, and Huang. In this area, Yi Hang is the largest, living in the Hangtian Courtyard, while several older brothers of Yi Chi live in Fengdi Courtyard, Mingxuan Courtyard, and Lunhuang Courtyard.

  Yi Chi has always been disdainful of this.

  "What a terrible name, it's really hard to hear. My Jinghe Courtyard is much better." The cat-like Yi Chi couldn't help but mutter.

  Now he is lying on the wall of Xing Tian Temple, relying on the night color, and no one has discovered him. Who made his whole body black?

  After looking around, Yi Chi jumped onto another wall and is now observing the terrain. Who would have thought he had never been here before?

  "There are a lot of experts here, I didn't expect my good brother to have recruited so many experts!!" Yi Chi said, looking at a room on the west side of the courtyard.

  There, five people were sitting, one of whom was Yi Xing, and the other four were not simple either. Each of them was a master of the Great Dou realm, and they were all seven or eight-star Great Dou Masters.

  Yi Chi carefully and slowly walked out of the room, jumped onto a beam outside the door, hid in the shadows, trying not to stare directly at those people. As a great Dou Shi, if you stared straight at him, he would definitely feel it. Yi Chi didn't want to be discovered.

  "This position is great, just convenient for me to eavesdrop." Yi Chi lay on the beam like this and became a beam gentleman.

  Her gaze turned into the room.

  Only five people from Yi Hang were seen discussing something.

  "Shuǐyún Master, what do you think of my proposal just now?" said Yìxíng with a gloomy face to a middle-aged woman.

  The middle-aged woman smiled and said: "Young Master Yi doesn't have to be so troublesome, just hand that kid over to me, why bother with such trouble."

  "Shuǐyún's junior sister, don't be too careless, that little guy is not simple." Another robust-looking man spoke up, seemingly, he and Shuǐyún Dàshī were also master siblings.

  "Senior brother, you're too timid. A mere one-star Dou Shi can't stir up much trouble. I alone can handle him." Shui Yun Dashi said disdainfully.

  "Hmph, suit yourself." The majestic man said.

  "Hehe, Master Huoyun doesn't need to get angry, my younger brother is quite capable, but still not a match for Master Shuinyun. Master Huoyun can rest assured." Yixing said with a smile to the majestic man.

  "Master Yi Da Shao, now that you've said so, I can rest assured. Water Cloud is too impulsive, I'm afraid she'll get into trouble." Fire Cloud Master said respectfully.

  "Hmph." Shuiyun Master let out a cold snort as soon as Huoyun Master said that.

  "Heh heh, what about you two? What do you think?" Yi Xing smiled and looked at the two siblings before turning to the two silent ones.

  The two of them looked at each other and nodded in agreement, seemingly accepting Yi Hang's proposal.

  "Alright, then I'll trouble Master Shuiyun to deal with my fifth brother, and Master Huoyun to keep an eye on my second brother. As for you two, Jian'nan and Jianbei, come with me to meet the other side." Yi Xing stood up with a smile, raising his wine cup in one hand.

  "Come on, let's finish this cup and wish our mission a success." Yi Xing said, taking the lead.

  The other four also stood up, raised their wine cups and clinked them together with Yi Xing before downing the drink in one gulp.

  "Alright! Then let's stop here for today, everyone can disperse." Yi Xing said with a smile after putting down his wine cup.

  "Goodbye." Jian Nan and Jian Bei said, then left.

  "Goodbye, Young Master Yi. We'll take our leave first." Huo Yun dragged along his sister Shui Yun, who still wanted to say something, and quickly walked out.

  After the four of them left, Yi Xing coldly laughed.

  "Heh heh, everything will be clear tomorrow." After saying that in a low voice, Yi Xing also walked out and disappeared into the night.

  ......

  Above the beam outside the door.

  Yi Chi was thinking about the conversation of the five people just now.

  "It seems that Yi Hang wants to use the water cloud to deal with me, and also go meet up with someone. I wonder who it is?" Turning his eyes, Yi Chi thought to himself quietly.

  "Damn it, if only I had come earlier, I would have been able to hear the conversation in front of me. This is the most annoying thing." Yi Chi thought with regret.

  Fortunately, I heard Yixing's last sentence, at least, Yichi knows their action will be tomorrow, probably tonight.

  After all, it's daytime, and coming to assassinate oneself is not very realistic.

  "Hmph, think you can kill me? You're just a self-important fool looking for death!" Yi Chi let out a cold snort and then suddenly vanished into the darkness of night.

  ......

  Back to the house.

  Yi Chi transformed back into his original form.

  "Hehe, this transformation technique is really practical." Yi Chi once again exclaimed at the practical value of the transformation technique.

  If it weren't for the transformation technique, it would be really hard to move around today. To think of hiding in that narrow space, human form is impossible.

  "This is the effect of the cheapest transformation technique, what about those more advanced ones?" Thinking of those expensive transformation techniques, Yi Chi's anticipation grew even stronger, but now he didn't have enough energy points to exchange for them.

  "It's time to get serious! First, I need to deal with tomorrow's assassination attempt. Hehe, things are getting more and more interesting. " Yi Chi chuckled lightly, then jumped onto the bed, sat cross-legged, and started cultivating his internal energy.

  Outside the house, the night is getting darker...
