Chapter 111 - 111: Strange Copper Mirror, Return to Jiang City
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Li Yidao’s gaze was fixed on the object in the guest hall!
A mirror!
It was an ancient bronze mirror, exquisitely carved with intricate patterns on its back, highlighting its extraordinary quality, clearly the work of skilled craftsmen from a wealthy family.
Its rustic color blended seamlessly with the surroundings, making Li Yidao pay no attention to it when he first entered the room.
It was as if the bronze mirror naturally belonged there, without a hint of incongruity.
But now…
Li Yidao understood everything.
This bronze mirror was the cursed item!
Through his innate sense, he could see the front of the mirror enveloped in an even denser black aura.
The reason Li Yidao didn’t notice it earlier was that he had focused all his attention on the old abbot.
Reviewing the details carefully left him with a chilling realization!
If he had followed the abbot’s guidance from the beginning and sat on the meditation cushion he indicated.
Then his back would have been directly reflected in the mirror!
By that time, wouldn’t he have been like fish on a chopping board?
However, when the abbot noticed Li Yidao’s vigilance and his refusal to sit down, he directly lit the three incense sticks.
Leading Li Yidao to think there was a problem with those three incense sticks!
In fact, there was no issue with the three incense sticks!
The abbot simply used Li Yidao’s sense of caution to make him step back into the ventilated area!
That spot could also reflect his side profile in the mirror!
In short, everything the abbot did was to ensure the mirror could capture his back!
Phew…
Li Yidao, who had figured everything out, was once again drenched in sweat!
If he had reacted even slightly slower, if he didn’t possess the unique skill of the Blade of Death, the consequences could easily be imagined!
While Li Yidao was facing this crisis, in a deep mountain to the north of the temple, inside a cabin nestled in the mountains, an old man who had been sipping tea suddenly stood up!
“The Cursed Mirror has been tampered with?”
“The old abbot should have been mentally incapacitated and shouldn’t have caused a problem.”
“Unless someone has detected the anomaly at the temple…”
“No, the Cursed Mirror must be safe and sound!” “Whoever has touched the Cursed Mirror, they won’t get away with it! ”
As he spoke, the old man’s gaze turned ice-cold.
Then he rapidly headed in the direction of the temple!
His racing speed didn’t really look like an old man.
In the temple, at this point, Li Yidao, after confirming that the bronze mirror was the issue, entered the guest hall once again.
But this time, he walked straight up to the bronze mirror, facing it head-on.
Indeed!
That eerie feeling of dizziness was nowhere to be found!
The mirror was indeed the source of this strangeness!
Holding the bronze mirror in his hand, Li Yidao felt a bone-chilling coldness.
However, the previous dizziness was absent.
Clearly, this mirror had many limitations.
Most likely, the curse would only take effect when it reflected someone’s back.
But…
What puzzled Li Yidao greatly was this: What kind of role did such a cursed item play in this temple?
Unit 36 couldn’t possibly miss the abnormality of this bronze mirror.
So why did they still let it remain in the temple?
And during this time, had other people fallen victim to this bronze mirror and the old abbot’s manipulation?
Or perhaps, was he the first person tricked by the bronze mirror?
For a moment, Li Yidao couldn’t quite unravel this mystery.
He took a deep breath.
He decisively picked up a cloth from the incense table and wrapped the entire bronze mirror in it.
Then, he turned and walked out of the guest hall.
As he passed the body of the old abbot, he paused for a moment.
He pondered for a while.
Then he dialed Qi Yuqiang’s number on his phone.
“Hello? What’s going on?” There was a hint of confusion in the other person’s tone.
After all, according to their agreement, Li Yidao wouldn’t call him unless it was necessary to avoid attracting the attention of the force behind all these.
Li Yidao didn’t explain much.
In a calm tone, he said, “The abbot of the temple has passed away. Arrange for someone to take care of it.”
“Also, I’m heading back to Jiang City.”
“And, I don’t like being manipulated by others.”
“Beep, beep, beep…”
Having said that, he hung up the phone directly.
Not only that, he even turned off his phone!
He was expressing an attitude!
His own attitude!
Did they really think he was so easily deceived?
Li Yidao had already partially completed his task in Xian City.
The karmic issues with Li Qingwen had been resolved.
Despite the system’s hints, Li Yidao wasn’t overly concerned with their safety afterward
The reason was simple.
Unit 36!
They wouldn’t just watch Li Qingwen and the others get assassinated!
Zhang Wei and those b*stards would face their own karma! Humph!
Without him intervening, they wouldn’t last long anywvay!
Even if something unexpected happened, Li Yidao would deal with them sooner or later!
The reason he intended to go back to Jiang City now was that he wanted to confirm something.
Or rather, he wanted to get something to protect himself!
Xian City was quite treacherous!
Today was the best example.
He had a hunch that if he continued recklessly like this.
He might truly become a pawn for certain people.
The current situation was like a mist.
Li Yidao felt like he had seen through everything, but when he actually got involved…
He discovered even deeper layers of mystery!
He knew he was gradually getting caught in a vortex!
This was happening earlier than he expected…
Unit 36.
Qi Yuqiang, who had just left Unit 36, had to return once again.
At this moment, his eyes were full of helplessness.
Not only that, but within that helplessness, there was also a trace of fear!
Was Li Yidao really this extraordinary?
He had extraordinary power and an incredibly clear mind.
In just one day, Li Yidao already sensed that something was off.
The plan of Unit 36 was like a piece of cake in front of him.
Perhaps Li Yidao hadn’t completely understood what had happened yet.
But he had undoubtedly sensed that something was amiss!
According to the feedback from the people he left by Li Yidao’s side just now, that item had indeed been taken away by Li Yidao!
He hadn’t used the vehicle provided by Unit 36 to leave.
He had taken a taxi, heading to the train station.
Just as Li Yidao himself had said, he was returning to Jiang City!
But…
With Li Yidao’s actions just now, he had stirred up the anger of multiple parties in Xian City.
If Li Yidao left now, Unit 36 would be in a difficult position!
Helplessly, Qi Yuqiang could only return to Elder Liang to discuss their next steps.
There was no other way…
This matter was no longer something he could decide.
“Clank, clank, clank.” A light knock on the door.
“Come in.”
Elder Liang saw Qi Yuqiang enter, his head lowered, and he didn’t speak.
He knew that Qi Yuqiang, who had just left, must have encountered something he couldn’t handle, hence he returned.
So, he waited for Qi Yuqiang to explain.
“Elder Liang, Li Yidao called me just now.”
“He said… the abbot of the temple has passed away, and he’s also returning to Jiang City…”
“And he said he doesn’t like being manipulated by others.” Upon hearing his report, Elder Liang remained silent. Qi Yuqiang stood quietly to the side without saying anything.
“Ah…” Elder Liang stood up, sighing. “After all, there’s no perfect solution.” “I should have expected this outcome.” A hint of helplessness was in his eyes.
“Did he take that thing away?”
“Yes, our people reported that he took it.” Qi Yuqiang replied softly.
“I know about this matter. When he calls you again, provide support for whatever he needs.”
“Don’t say anything, don’t explain anything. Smart people will make smart choices.”
“Also, adjust his identity level to SS-rank.”
“Killing without a trace, even silently dealing with that old abbot, all while that item was in play.”
“He’s no longer someone we can provoke now.”
“At the very least, he could hurt us, and at the worst…” At this point, Elder Liang didn’t continue.
He shook his head instead, a self-mocking smile at the corner of his mouth.
He… had underestimated Li Yidao’s capabilities!
He had intended to kill three birds with one stone.
Now…
There was no need to play tricks anymore. The birds had pecked his eyes….
