Chapter 116: Chapter 92: Flower Thief, Your Incident Has Occurred 2

Translator: 549690339

“I heard he escaped from another city. I think the stationed immortal master has reported it to the Liu Yun Sect. Maybe other cultivators will come to catch him after a while.”

“Enough, let's stop discussing. Who knows, that Flower Thief might be hiding among us. If we offend a cultivator, our lives could be in danger.”

An older martial artist waved his hand and spoke. Everyone immediately felt apprehensive, stopping their discussions and drinking their liquor in silence.

After eating and drinking their fill, some people left, including the fair-skinned man who left the tavern.

Lin Yi had no intention of following him. This guy's performance was too obvious. He was not the Flower Thief he was looking for. Instead, he seemed like bait intentionally released, perhaps to lure the cultivators of the Liu Yun Sect.

Analyzing this, there must be a connection between this man and the Flower Thief.

Meanwhile, the news about the beautiful and pure daughter of the wealthy merchant Liu seemed to be deliberately announced by the martial artist. It should be a plot from the Qing Shi City side, and the situation seemed to be becoming chaotic.

As Lin Yi drank, he pondered and decided on his next course of action. Following the logic of a typical Flower Thief, there must be ambushes around Merchant Liu's side. Therefore, it could be a good opportunity to harm other girls.

However, a qi-refining mid-stage cultivator, the Flower Thief, is surely stimulated by something and will go wherever that something is. Therefore, he thought the battle would inevitably happen on Merchant Liu's side.

The martial artist who revealed the news about merchant Liu's daughter did not voluntarily disclose where he lived. If asked, he just smiled, drank for a while, and then left the tavern.

At this time, Lin Yi saw several curious patrons stand up after the martial artist left, seemingly wanting to secretly follow him.

One of them happened to pass his table. He gently flicked a finger, continued to drink his wine, and nonchalantly snapped his fingers towards the window.

Lin Yi returned to the inn, and late in the night, he left the inn and activated the “Concealing Breath Technique.” Guided by several birds in the sky, he arrived at Merchant Liu's location.

These birds were the ones he had trained under the effect of [Junior Dung Cleaner] when he harvested Spirit Rice earlier.

At that time, he fed many birds to prevent them from stealing the Spirit Rice. As their affection levels increased, he chose some of the more intelligent birds to keep as pets.

In the ordinary world, any tracking methods involving spiritual power fluctuations could be detected, leading to the failure of this mission. Thus, he had to be flawless as this is his first cultivation mission.

With the Great Perfection in the Concealing Breath Technique and the presence reduction from [Minor Follower], he can blend in unnoticed.

Lin Yi sensed the aura of several martial artists and even three faint spiritual power fluctuations. Despite being very faint and hidden with the Concealing Breath Technique, they could not escape his powerful perception at Qi Refining Ninth Layer.

He couldn't help but smile, as he had guessed correctly. This was the trap set for the Flower Thief.

It looked like the city lord of Qing Shi City, not waiting for the cultivators sent by the Liu Yun Sect, had hired cultivators himself. It must have cost him quite a bit. Among the three spiritual power fluctuations, one should be the an Immortal Master stationed in Qing Shi City.

He had previously seen a related mission in the Merit Hall. The minimum requirement was Qi Refining Fifth Level, the term of duty ranged from one to three years, merit points started from a thousand, the longer the duty term, the more the merit points, and a certain amount of pills were provided on a regular basis.

The cost was that he wouldn't be able to cultivate normally during this time, but he could solely rely on pills.

Lin Yi considered it quite normal. After all, if anything happened in a city or a

Spiritual Root Disciple appeared, cultivators could activate a Sound Transmission Talisman or a Sound Transmission Jade Slip to convey the message back to the sect as quickly as possible.

Qing Shi City wasn't far from Liu Yun Sect, so the requirements for cultivation levels shouldn't be too high. Otherwise, they wouldn't have failed to catch the Flower Thief. Of course, they might be deliberately dragging their feet.

Usually, inner sect disciples who choose to be stationed in a mundane city either lack talent and completing other tasks would be dangerous, or they want to earn more merit points for longer cultivation periods.

The main focus of this task was safety. A mid-stage qi refining cultivator could basically dominate the mortal world with no danger. If danger does arise, they could hide in their formations and wait for the sect to come to their rescue.

However, this task held no appeal for him. Although it was safe, his cultivation speed would significantly decrease.

Moreover, besides cultivation, he couldn't do anything else. He couldn't plant medicinal fields or learn alchemy.

Lin Yi hid in a large tree not far away. His whole body seemed to blend in with the night, and no one noticed his movements.

However, nothing happened that night. Instead, news spread from other parts of Qing Shi City about an honest woman being violated.

Knowing this news, Lin Yi didn't lose his composure, but continued to lie in wait at Merchant Liu's premises.

The auras and spiritual power fluctuations of the surrounding martial artists remained unchanged, as if they had seen through the Flower Thief's strategy of creating a diversion.

On the third day, a figure stealthily leapt into Merchant Liu's residence, a faint spiritual power fluctuation emitted from their body..
