Fourth Master Qi continued with a serious expression, "Mr. Long, do you remember when you shattered Master Yang's dantian in Jinghai City a week ago? I'm afraid his sect, the Xuanming Sect, will seek revenge on me during the Zhulu Tournament."

"Xuanming Sect?" Long Yi nodded slightly and asked, "Please tell me more about the Xuanming Sect."

"Ten years ago, the Xuanming Sect had an influence that was unparalleled in the four major provincial capitals. The sect leader at that time, the Blood Demon Taoist Wu Xiong, was a terrifying existence that could be ranked in the top ten of the Dragon Country's combat power list." Fourth Master Qi recounted the story.

"Since they were so powerful ten years ago, why is there no news about the Xuanming Sect now?" Long Yi asked suspiciously.

"Back then, the Blood Demon Taoist, in pursuit of a higher realm, resorted to all means, even resorting to the devil's way. His methods of cultivation were so cruel that they were appalling. Naturally, the Dragon Nation authorities would not allow such a heresy to exist.

So, Senior Sword Saint Lu Jiutian led the Xuanyuan Pavilion, hundreds of experts, and flattened the entire Xuanming Sect. However, the Blood Demon Taoist's skills were too strange, so he managed to evade the siege and escape.

"It seems that good prevails over evil. There will be no good end if you go against the righteous forces of the entire Dragon Country. However, this Blood Demon Taoist does have some tricks up his sleeve." Long Yi was a little surprised.

He had witnessed Lu Jiutian's strength more than once before. He was able to escape from the hands of the Dragon Country Sword Saint, which showed his strength.

"According to what you said, that Blood Demon Taoist might come to participate in this Zhulu Conference?"

Fourth Master Qi's face was solemn, and he said seriously, "My spy who was planted next to Lin Hu told me that Lin Hu is already preparing for the ceremony to welcome the Blood Demon Taoist."

Liu Sandao took a deep breath and sighed, "If the Blood Demon Taoist takes action, the four major provincial capitals of Jingcheng, Jinghai, Shuntian, and Youzhou may be in turmoil, and a bloody storm is inevitable."

Long Yi narrowed his eyes slightly, a gleam of brilliance flashed in his deep eyes, and he said word by word:

"As long as I'm here, the capital city won't change!"

He had vaguely sensed in the past few days that the bottleneck of the middle level of the Earth Realm had loosened. He only needed to practice quietly for a few days and then fuse the fragments of the dragon pendant he had obtained in the Sheqi Mountains.

Not only can he break through the bottleneck of the middle level of the Earth Realm in one fell swoop, but he is also confident of reaching the peak of the Earth Realm.

At that time, this so-called Blood Demon Taoist can be used as a touchstone. After all, Long Yi now has the strength to fight against ordinary Heaven Realm warriors. If he can break through to the peak of the Earth Realm and kill the Blood Demon Taoist, it will not be difficult.

Fourth Master Qi was overjoyed and asked excitedly, "Master Long, are you sure you can defeat the Blood Demon Taoist?"

"Haha, it's not just that I'm sure, I will definitely kill him!" A gleam of brilliance flashed in Long Yi's eyes, and the sleeping lion in the depths of his eyes seemed to wake up.

The entire box trembled, and the cutlery on the table even trembled slightly under the powerful aura.

Liu Sandao felt as if a huge rock was pressing on his chest and he couldn't breathe for a long time.

Not to mention the thin and weak Fourth Master Qi, his eyes suddenly went dark and the blood in his brain and heart rushed to the soles of his feet.

He said with difficulty: "Long... Master Long, please withdraw your magical power quickly. I am almost dying."

After Long Yi came to his senses, he restrained his breath and said apologetically, "I was on the verge of a breakthrough recently, and my fighting spirit was just stimulated. For a moment, I couldn't contain the violent true energy in my body."

After Liu Sandao recovered, he gasped for breath and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I understand the principle that water will overflow when it's full. Mr. Long, there's no need to apologize."

After Qi Lao Si's blood pressure returned to normal, instead of being dissatisfied, he toasted Long Yi with a glass of wine and said, "Then I, Qi Lao Si, wish Master Long a speedy breakthrough. I will be counting on you at the Zhuolu Conference."

Although the Qi family's power is ranked among the best in the entire Long Kingdom, it is far away in Yandu and cannot influence the affairs of the capital.

What's more, Mr. Qi has always been against the fourth son of the Qi family developing in the capital, so he didn't dare to expect the Qi family to contribute to the Zhuolu Conference half a month later, and could only entrust everything to Long Yi.

Liu Sandao also drank the wine in the cup and said proudly: "This time we have Master Long in charge, even if Lin Hu really has the help of the Blood Demon Taoist, we are not afraid of him at all.

Those damn Blood Demon Taoist priests are nothing but cats and dogs in front of Master Long."

After some flattery, the banquet officially began. The entire round table was filled with precious food made by Michelin five-star chefs. Expensive foreign wines, champagne, and national liquor Maotai were opened first, regardless of whether they could be finished or not.

The meal lasted until the early morning, and Qi Laosi finally called dozens of beautiful girls in revealing clothes, high heels and stockings to come and drink and sing.

"Mr. Long, these are all top-notch beauties. If you like any of them, ask her to come and drink with you."

An ordinary man might be impatient, but Long Yi would never look down on such a vulgar woman. Any one of the beauties in his family could beat these women by a dozen blocks.

He just patted his butt and left. Qi Laosi didn't dare to keep him, so he asked Leopard, who had picked up Long Yi earlier, to send him back.

"Master Long, take care. The affairs of the Zhulu Tournament are all depending on you."

......

After resting for a night, when Long Yi got up the next morning, Chen Qianqian had already prepared breakfast for him and went to work at Qiancaotang.

After Long Yi had a simple breakfast, he used three spirit gathering talismans to create a simple spirit gathering array. The spiritual energy above the entire capital city rushed into Long Yi's body frantically.

Since leaving Jiangzhou, it only took him half a year to improve his strength to the initial stage of the Earth Realm, but he also stayed in this realm for a full month.

Although the Xuantian Tulu technique is extremely powerful, once it reaches the later stages, the throughput of spiritual energy is terrifying. With each advancement in a small realm, the demand for spiritual energy will increase exponentially.

Now the spirit gathering talisman can only barely maintain the practice. If you want to increase the speed, you must rely on a large spirit gathering array.

"I've heard from the old man before that although the spiritual energy between heaven and earth is thin now, the Dragon Kingdom is vast and rich in resources, spanning more than ten degrees of longitude and latitude, and the spiritual energy in each province is quite rich.

Especially in a province like Yandu, it is the province with the richest spiritual energy in Dragon Country. Otherwise, there would not be so many major sects and it would not become the cultivation capital of Dragon Country."

Long Yi remembered that Mr. Qi had given him a villa in Yandu before, and it was just right that he could go to Yandu to take a look after the Zhulu Conference was over.

If appropriate, we will build a large spirit gathering array and a mountain protection array in that villa. After everything is settled, we will bring Chen Qianqian, Li Yutong and the others over.

With the large mountain protection formation, they can be well protected, and when he goes to the Northern Spiritual Realm to find his mother in the future, he will have nothing to worry about.
