Chapter 310 Spatial Arts

Bai Qingjue was right. If it were just the Flying Smoke Step, Ling Yi wouldn't have been unable to catch the person. However, Bai Qingjue hadn't personally fought the little girl, so he didn't know about her strangeness.

But Ling Yi, who was fighting the little girl, could sense it.

The fact that his figure was elusive could not fool Ling Yi. Every time Ling Yi made a move, he was grabbing the real body, but every time he tried, he would miss.

The art of space.

The Flying Smoke Step allows a person to appear elusive, creating a double image. With multiple images, the little girl disappeared for a moment when Ling Yi grabbed her, but the double image remained. Therefore, to others, the little girl did not disappear.

Moreover, the little girl only disappeared for a moment and then reappeared, her flying smoke steps creating a double image, which is why Bai Qingjue didn't notice anything amiss.

With the ability to manipulate space, it's no wonder they didn't notice the little girl when they first appeared. She must have been inside the space at that time, and only appeared later. Since she hadn't come out, they naturally couldn't find her.

Thinking of this, Ling Yi stopped.

Seeing Ling Yi stop, the little girl also stopped, smiling as she asked, "So, do you admit defeat?"

Ling Yi didn't speak, but stared at the little girl carefully. When she moved again, her figure even had a double image.

The little girl looked at Ling Yi in disbelief: "You...you...you..."

The little girl wanted to say that Ling Yi had stolen her footwork, but upon closer inspection, the Flying Smoke Step was not as simple as just footwork. Without the technique, how could Ling Yi have stolen it by simply watching?

But if he hadn't learned it by stealing, how could Ling Yi have learned it too?

Under the girl's shocked gaze, Ling Yi said calmly, "If you can catch me, I will admit that you are powerful."

Upon hearing this, the little girl immediately moved closer to Ling Yi. Her Flying Smoke Steps were unpredictable; though her figure appeared to be still far away, she was already face to face with him.

Ling Yi took a step back, leaving a blur in his wake. A glint of light flashed in the little girl's eyes as she accurately grabbed at Ling Yi's true form, laughing as she said, "A mere trick, don't think you can fool me."

Ling Yi did not respond, but instead slipped into the space when the little girl confidently grabbed him.

The little girl grasped at empty air, looking at her hand in disbelief and distrust.

Ling Yi dodged the little girl's hand and reappeared, his tone indifferent: "It's not a trivial trick, so why didn't you catch her?"

The little girl looked at her own hand and then at Ling Yi, saying, "Don't rush, just wait." Then she reached out to grab Ling Yi again.

Ling Yi entered the space again just as the little girl reached out her hand, and once again missed. The little girl's eyes widened, and before Ling Yi could speak, she stubbornly reached out to grab him again.

After missing three times in a row, the little girl realized what was happening and snorted, "I'm not going to try anymore, it's not fun at all."

Ling Yi stopped in front of the little girl: "Weren't you having a lot of fun before?"

Ling Yi's footwork was not the Flying Smoke Step, but his spatial ability was undeniable. The little girl used spatial techniques to play tricks on Ling Yi, and Ling Yi returned the favor in the same way.

Ling Yi knew the little girl possessed the ability to create a spatial dimension but didn't tell her, and the little girl knew Ling Yi had it but didn't tell her either.

"So annoying!" the little girl said irritably. "If you're so powerful, what are you doing in Peach Blossom Valley?"

Ling Yi's tone was indifferent: "Looking for something."

As for what they were looking for... Ling Yi hadn't had a chance to see before they got into a fight with the little girl.

“There’s nothing in Peach Valley that you’re looking for. Get out of here now.” The little girl said unhappily, “Otherwise, don’t blame me for having my older sister kick you out.”

"Oh." Ling Yi replied casually, then walked towards Ji Yanzhi and the others without turning around: "Then let your older sister come and kick us out."

"Hey!"

The little girl got even angrier when she saw that Ling Yi was disobedient: "Your friends have been poisoned by peach blossom fragrance. If you don't leave obediently, I won't give you the antidote."

"No antidote is needed." As Ling Yi spoke, he walked back to the group and looked at Ji Yanzhi, asking, "Can you handle this?"

“No antidote is needed,” Ji Yanzhi said. “The fragrance of peach blossoms attracts the souls of the homeland, which is an illusion. This illusion will dissipate on its own in three days, and there will be no solution within three days. However, this illusion may cause people to experience great sorrow or great joy.”

Great sorrow is the pain in one's heart that cannot be forgotten.

Great joy means never encountering sorrow.

Lin Chengtian and baijiu (Chinese liquor) represent opposites; one is the former, the other the latter.
