Night’s Nomenclature-Chapter 456: Knights Covenant
“Who is my master?” Li Ke was puzzled. He never imagined that this older sister would suddenly ask this question.
Qin Yiyi's eyes twinkled, like the stars in the night sky.
She is a Qin family member. Her uncle, who is still missing to this day, once fought alongside Knight.
So, when Li Shutong deliberately revealed his identity, the Qin family realized who the middle-aged man and the young boy who had traveled with them were.
This is also why Qin Yiyi left her hometown. She didn't want to accept Li Shutong's gifts, and she didn't want to live under the protection of others.
This might be a bit willful, but after secretly leaving her family, she never regretted it, even though she almost died in the great snowy mountains of the southwest.
Qin Yiyi looked at Li Ke. Could this be that boy's junior brother?
It's not surprising that Qin Yiyi had this misunderstanding. Mainly, Qing Chen is too young. She didn't think he could already be a master.
She asked, “Is your master Li Shutong?”
Li Ke shook his head.
Not many people know that his master Qing Chen is Knight, so Li Ke didn't want to say.
The elder felt strange: “Could it be Chen Jiazhang or Wang Xiaojiu? They have disappeared for several years…”
Li Ke still shook his head: “Don't guess anymore. I don't want to lie, and I don't want to answer this question.”
At this time, Qin Yiyi suddenly paused. She went around the bonfire and squatted in front of Li Ke, avoiding the gazes of others. She squatted on the ground and wrote the character "庆' (慶 - Qing, celebration): “Is it him?”
Li Ke was stunned.
Qin Yiyi was also stunned. She didn't expect that she had actually guessed the truth. This child in front of her was actually the disciple of that young man?!
Thinking of this, Qin Yiyi immediately took off her small satchel and handed the whole bag of apples to Li Ke.
Li Ke received them with a dazed expression and held them in his arms.
Then they saw Qin Yiyi turn to the elder and reach out her hand.
The elder was on high alert, his expression tense: “What?”
“Get them some beef,” Qin Yiyi said, “The divine beef from the snowy mountains!”
The elder said angrily, “This thing can't be given to outsiders.”
“It's so cold, let him eat some to warm up,” Qin Yiyi said as she beckoned to the Fire Pit member next to the elder: “Hurry up.”
The elder said with heartache, “You've only just met them. Why give them such precious things! Also, you're a Fire Pit person. Don't be a traitor!”
Qin Yiyi thought for a moment and said, “As the Fire Pit God Woman, how can I not give something to the disciple of an old friend? Like this, I'll lend you my knife for another three months. How about that?”
The elder was speechless. He clutched the scabbard of the long knife at his waist.
A trace of bitterness arose in his heart.
That's clearly his knife, but ever since the deity asked him to give the knife to Qin Yiyi, he has had to borrow it from her whenever he wants to use it.
There's no way around it. It's the deity's will.
The young man in charge of carrying the divine beef looked at the elder, who helplessly waved his hand.
The young man silently took out a small deerskin bag and handed it to Qin Yiyi.
At this time, Li Yunjing had already realized that this girl was being so enthusiastic towards Li Ke because of Qing Chen.
He felt a little strange. Why would Knight's next leader be connected to the Fire Pit?
Moreover, the relationship between the girl and the young man seemed to be more than just a simple relationship.
Judging from the elder's attitude, the God Woman's status in the Fire Pit seems to be very special.
Li Yunjing recalled that there had been God Women in the Fire Pit before, though few and precious, they were not to the point where even the elder would be so doting.
Their status was only slightly higher than the God Son.
But the current God Woman's status is not just slightly higher.
Is it because of the deity's revelation?
Li Yunjing fell into thought.
Li Ke also vaguely realized that this older sister might have a very good relationship with his master.
Otherwise, why would she give him apples and beef as soon as she guessed that he was Qing Chen's disciple?
How should he address her?
Calling her aunt? That would make her sound too old.
Calling her sister? But that might be incorrect in terms of seniority.
Qin Yiyi smiled and handed the small deerskin bag to Li Ke: “There are ten slices in total. You can only eat one a day. After you finish eating, you won't be afraid of the cold. By the way, if you see your master, just say you met me in the southwest. He doesn't need to come find me. I will go find him one day.”
Qin Yiyi's emotions were straightforward and direct. She never concealed anything from Qing Chen.
Therefore, since she said she would go find Qing Chen, she will definitely go.
The elder on the side became anxious: “Why are you going to find Knight?!”
Qin Yiyi felt a little strange: “Didn't that old man just say that the Fire Pit has a covenant with Knight? Elder, why are you so opposed to Knight?”
The elder said with heartache, “That covenant was made many years ago, and although the Fire Pit recognizes this covenant and will never harm members of Knight, do you know how this covenant was signed?”
“How was it signed?” Qin Yiyi became curious.
Even Li Yunjing looked at the elder. This was a secret. Outsiders didn't know why Knight had a covenant with the Fire Pit.
Even the Li Clan only knew about this because their ancestor was a Knight.
“Many years ago, twelve Knights suddenly broke into the snowy mountains. At that time, there was another organization in the snowy mountains. They brought the Buddha Master of that organization to the Fire Pit, saying that they had eliminated a threat for the Fire Pit, and then forced the elder to the ground and made him sign the covenant,” the elder said.
Li Ke didn't know about these past events of the Knights, so he listened in amazement.
He thought to himself, were the Knights of the past so fierce?
They're like bandits!
Li Yunjing nodded. No wonder the Li Clan didn't know how the covenant was signed. After all, this kind of thing would affect Knight's image, so it's better not to mention it if possible.
But he heard the elder say to Qin Yiyi: “In the past, once a Knight became a Demi-God, they would go to the snowy mountains to collect divine beef. So Knights are not good people. Stay away from them.”
Qin Yiyi shook her head and said decisively, “That won't do.”
The elder's eyes widened. No one in the Fire Pit dared to directly refute him like this, but he didn't know what to do for a moment.
Li Yunjing was right in one respect. The God Woman's status in the Fire Pit is indeed special because she can communicate with the deity.
It's not that the deity actually told her anything.
But Fire Pit people who want to obtain power must go to the Fire Pit and perform a prayer ritual. As for whether they can obtain power, it depends entirely on the deity's mood.
However, there's an old woman who is very kind to Qin Yiyi and gives her food every day. The bag of apples was given by the old woman. freeweɓnovel~cѳm
The old woman once chatted with Qin Yiyi, saying that her biggest wish was to receive the deity's blessing and become a Metahuman.
Unfortunately, if Fire Pit people are over 18 and haven't received the deity's blessing, they won't have any hope in life and can only farm in the Grand Canyon.
After hearing this, Qin Yiyi felt very sad. She went to the Fire Pit and chatted with the flames for a day and a night. As a result, the next day, when the old woman went to the Fire Pit for her usual prayers, she received a blessing.
Although the old woman is only an ordinary F-Class, this is real power.
No one can receive power from the deity after the age of 18.
So when this happened, the entire Fire Pit was shocked.
Everyone saw Qin Yiyi sitting by the Fire Pit muttering to herself for a day and a night. At first, everyone thought she was silly, then everyone realized that it was they who were being silly.
Many Fire Pit people who hadn't received the deity's blessing tried to sit by the Fire Pit and chat with the deity, but to no avail.
Some went to Qin Yiyi again, begging her to talk to the deity again.
Qin Yiyi didn't refuse. She went to the Fire Pit and pointed at the person and asked the Fire Pit, “Deity, can you give him some power?”
The next second, the middle-aged man who had asked Qin Yiyi for help also became a Metahuman.
In the elder's eyes, this is like cheating.
He had never seen the deity favor anyone so much!
Amazing!
So even if the elder was reluctant, he acquiesced to Qin Yiyi having his knife.
Recently, the Fire Pit people would worship the deity in the morning, greet the elder in the evening, and send food to Qin Yiyi at noon. It has become a habit.
Now, everyone in the Fire Pit is a Metahuman. Although most people only receive a little bit of power and can only continue farming after obtaining power, the far-reaching impact of this event is far from being as simple as it seems.
The elder guessed that with this girl here, the deity would favor the Fire Pit even more.
Who would have thought that the little girl who almost died in the snowy mountains and was picked up by them would become the new hope of the Fire Pit?
At this moment, the elder also realized that Qin Yiyi had feelings for Li Ke's master.
However, Li Ke's master is not Li Shutong, Chen Jiazhang, or Wang Xiaojiu.
Could it be that the Knight Order already has new members who are kept secret?
However, the person who can become Li Ke's master should be quite old.
So he became even more anxious: “Yiyi, you're still young. Don't be attracted by the so-called mature charm of middle-aged men. When you meet more people, you won't think it's that special!”
Qin Yiyi couldn't help but laugh and cry: “Elder, what are you saying? He's very young.”
The elder felt strange. He didn't even know who this Knight was.
However, at this moment, after thinking for a while, Qin Yiyi whispered to the elder, “Elder, he is the one who appeared in the flames with me.”
The elder's pupils suddenly constricted.
Why would a Knight appear in the deity's revelation?
Who is he?
Others didn't see the figure in the flames clearly, but the elder did. As Qin Yiyi said, that Knight was unbelievably young.
However, after thinking that a Knight appeared in the deity's revelation, the elder held his breath and said, “Bad luck.”
