Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

Chapter 890 Relocation reduces damage to 0

"Why? Is it because you found a sorcerer?" A voice suddenly rang out from the side.

Mu Tai was startled and turned around to see Qiao Lian'er standing to the side.

Now, Qiao Lian'er no longer hides her abilities from him and openly displays them.

Although this wasn't the first time, Mutai's heart still clenched suddenly.

"Qiao Lian'er, you dare to appear before me so rashly, you really aren't afraid of death."

Although Mu Tai said that, he knew that he was just being stubborn.

"Afraid of death? You should only be afraid of death when you're facing someone who can threaten you. You've lost to me time and time again, and you're in a sorry state. Who is the one who's afraid of death?"

Qiao Lian'er calmly sat down and poured herself a cup of tea.

Mu Tai's face twitched, and he let out a cold laugh.

"I believe you've also encountered Huo Xiu, otherwise you wouldn't have come to me, because you want to determine whether Huo Xiu was someone I sent."

"Well, you've seen his true skills now."

As Mu Tai spoke, he stared at Qiao Lian'er, trying to detect even the slightest bit of fear in her.

Such an expression had never appeared on her face before.

He really wanted to see it.

However, Qiao Lian'er's expression remained calm and composed, as if she would not be swayed even if a giant mountain collapsed before her.

"He does have some ability, but that's about it."

Mu Tai froze for a moment, then snorted, "Don't be too confident. The person I went through so much trouble to find will not be easily defeated by you. In fact, you will become his defeated opponent, and your family and your life may not be spared."

"Is that so? We'll see then." Qiao Lian'er's lips curled up: "If even Huo Xiu can't help, I'm afraid His Highness the First Prince's mentality will be shattered."

"As long as I have a breath left, I will never let you get away with this," Mu Tai said sinisterly.

His goals in life were twofold: first, to become the emperor of the Great Swamp Kingdom; and second, to take Qiao Lian'er's life.

Of course, the relationship between the two is mutual.

Qiao Lian'er found this to be normal and simply left.

Now that it's confirmed that Huo Xiu is Mu Tai's man, she doesn't need to waste her breath arguing with Mu Tai.

Moreover, Huo Xiu is indeed quite capable, so she has to be more vigilant.

Pei Shijiu found a bunch of books related to the Five Elements in the spatial library and sat at his desk reading them for a whole day and night without closing his eyes.

A wave of drowsiness washed over him, and he pressed his fingers to his brow, letting out a deep yawn.

Qiao Lian'er snatched the book from his hand, an action that brought him to his senses.

"Lian'er, what's wrong?"

"Are you trying to outlive yourself to death?" Qiao Lian'er frowned.

"You just read a few more books, how did it get to this point?" Pei Shijiu said, both amused and exasperated.

“Looking at these won’t teach you any magic, and they won’t be of much use, so there’s no need to bother,” Qiao Lian’er said.

Pei Shijiu shook his head: "It's worth learning about. It's useful after all. For example, this fire element can burn targets and has a scorching effect. Huo Xiu dared to tell us in advance, which shows that he was very confident."

"Lian'er, if he really uses fire magic, I'll use martial arts to restrain him and try to prevent him from causing harm. You can think of other solutions."

Qiao Lian'er said, "No matter what kind of magic it is, I can escape in the shortest time. I suspect that Huo Xiu's words have a deeper meaning."

She suddenly remembered something, her pupils contracted, and she immediately returned to the Qiao family home.

Then they saw a tall, slender figure in a black robe standing in front of the Qiao family's gate. Huo Xiu had his hands behind his back, and his cold and aloof face seemed to carry a faint smile.

It was evening, and the women from the Qiao family who had been managing the shops and the men who had been training the army all returned home.

Although Huo Xiu was very conspicuous to Qiao Lian'er on the bustling street, strangely enough, it seemed that few people noticed him.

The men of the Qiao family, being generals by nature, were quite perceptive. They merely glanced in Huo Xiu's direction without attracting any particular attention.

"Huo Xiu, only a shameless and despicable person would bring disaster upon their family," Qiao Lian'er said coldly.

Huo Xiu's lips twitched slightly.

“I have never been a virtuous person, nor have I ever used that to boast about myself. If your family becomes your weakness, and you are defeated by me, you still lose, and you are still no match for me. A true strong person must consider the overall situation. If you cannot do that, then you are incompetent.”

He said these words in a calm tone.

Qiao Jianer's eyes turned cold.

Yes, if Huo Xiu uses fire, can she transfer all her family members into the space in the shortest amount of time?

Her family, including two elderly people and several young children, were completely powerless to fight back.

Huo Xiu slowly raised his hand and began to mutter incantations.

A stream of heat gradually gathered around his palm.

Qiao Lian'er knew that if she didn't react in time, it would be too late.

She only had a few seconds left.

Her mind raced, and she suddenly remembered that her space had a function that seemed to be able to counter such tactics.

But she only glanced at it before, so it didn't leave a deep impression.

A fireball began to condense in Huo Xiu's palm.

Pei Shijiu's eyes were cold and piercing. He drew his sword and thrust it forward with lightning speed. The blade flashed with a chilling light in mid-air.

Huo Xiu conjured a pale golden shield around himself to defend against the attack.

However, he was forced to withdraw his fire magic and flashed onto the roof to continue using his fire magic.

Pei Shijiu followed, sword in hand.

The two fought to a standstill, one wielding a sword and the other magic.

It is clear that Huo Xiu's martial arts skills are not high, but his magic can provide him with conveniences such as escape, concealment, and relocation, so the two are unable to determine a winner for the time being.

However, Pei Shijiu's sharp and agile martial arts skills still greatly restrained Huo Xiu and bought Qiao Lian'er time.

Qiao Lian'er couldn't remember for a moment because the space had too many functions, so she directly asked the butler.

"Master, this is the space displacement function, which can move a certain real space, including people, objects, and scenery, into the virtual space. From a third-person perspective, these people and scenery still exist in the real world, but cannot cause them any harm."

"So, it's like a projection?"

"Yes."

"If the owner needs it, the scene that they want to move can be virtually replaced right now."

Qiao Lian'er breathed a sigh of relief. With this ability, not to mention fire magic, the entire Five Elements magic would be of no use to her and her family.

"Alright, let's move the entire Qiao residence there."
