That night, a banquet was held for the guests.
The powerful and influential people of Jiangzhou gathered at the Prince of Han's mansion.
Unlike the bustling Hanwang Mansion, the prison located in the east of the city appeared rather deserted.
Although guards patrol from time to time, security in the prison is not very tight.
"Ancestor, will Li Fan and his men really come?"
Inside the prison, Bei Minghao asked with a puzzled expression.
“Come, then leave them here!”
If they don't come, then we can have them executed tomorrow!
Bei Mingcang said calmly.
The moment the King of Han was welcomed back to Tianjiang City, many things were already destined.
Bei Mingcang would not delay, nor was he prepared to give Li Fan time.
Tomorrow, the King of Han will publicly try these people.
There is only one outcome.
Everyone associated with the Ten Thousand Blades Sect must die.
If Li Fan shows himself, death awaits him.
As for the possibility that he might not show up, that was completely outside of Bei Mingcang's consideration.
He was certain that Li Fan would show up.
......
Not all areas of the Prince of Han's residence were bustling with activity.
The courtyard where Zhou Boxing lived appeared somewhat deserted.
It was quiet, but not completely quiet.
At the entrance, an old man stood like an iron tower.
Inside the room, the hot pot was bubbling, and the Sichuan-style chili oil was emitting its unique aroma.
On the table were plates of sliced meat and two pairs of bowls and chopsticks.
Zhou Boxing held a glass of wine and looked outside.
Chuzhou Tingfenglou gave him their contact information.
He extended the invitation before even entering the city.
He was certain that Li Fan would dare to come.
After all, his audacity is greater than the sky!
While Zhou Boxing was waiting, people were already waiting in front of a house not far from the Han Prince's Mansion.
That person was none other than a tenth-grade Dharma Image Perfection martial artist who had come with Zhou Boxin.
Kong Wu is his name.
He was not a native of Chuzhou, but rather someone the Overlord brought from Tiandu.
He wasn't very famous in the martial arts world.
After all, the name of the Overlord is already quite resounding.
Of course, Kong Wu also liked this state.
Some people like to become famous, while others prefer to engage in heated battles.
But Kong Wu was different; he preferred to stay quietly in his room reading.
What they read were naturally the classics of sages and worthies.
However, he is not holding any books in his hand right now.
I'm here on business.
When handling affairs, Kong Wu knew how to restrain his desires.
However, he was curious whether Li Fan would really dare to go to the meeting alone.
He should be somewhat afraid that this might be a trap!
Just as Kong Wu was lost in thought, a carriage stopped at the entrance of the alley.
The carriage drove away in the next second.
A figure walked quickly towards them.
Kong Wu looked at the newcomer, then frowned slightly.
Although the newcomer was skilled in martial arts, his steps were unsteady.
With every step forward, his entire body was riddled with flaws.
This person is not Li Fan!
Is he afraid?
"No need to look anymore, I'm not Li Fan, take me to see the Overlord!"
Yan Mingshu said calmly.
Kong Wu didn't say much, and disappeared into the courtyard with Yan Mingshu in his arms.
......
"Yan Mingshu greets the Overlord!"
As soon as he entered the room, Yan Mingshu spoke first.
The Overlord narrowed his eyes slightly but did not reply.
He was very disappointed that it wasn't Li Fan who came!
In his view, Li Fan should have the domineering spirit of "I will go even if there are thousands of people against me".
"Perhaps the Overlord is very disappointed!"
But don't be disappointed yet.
If nothing unexpected happens, Li Fan will come to see you in person after he finishes his business!
I've only come to deliver a message.
Yan Mingshu sat down neither humbly nor arrogantly, and then put a plate of mutton into the pot on his own.
These past few days of intense travel and constant hiding have really taken a toll on my energy.
Now that you have such a powerful figure protecting you, it would be a shame not to treat him well.
"Good! Good! Good!"
I never expected that a mere scholar like you would have such courage. No wonder you came from the Jixia Academy.
But aren't you underestimating the four major families?
Zhou Boxing changed the subject: "They dared to announce their execution tomorrow, so they're not afraid of your prison break today."
Even if Li Fan brought everyone, it would probably be in vain.
"Your Majesty, please rest assured. Li Fan has not come here to break into prison!"
However, when it comes to courage, I admire the Overlord even more.
How dare they take such a risk to ally with us!
After Yan Mingshu finished speaking, he picked up a piece of mutton and put it into the oil dish.
Coat it with chili powder and then put it in your mouth.
The way of eating in Shuzhou is truly impressive.
"You don't think I'm afraid of the four great families, do you?!"
Zhou Boxing didn't seem to care and picked up a piece of beef and put it in his mouth.
"What a magnificent spirit you possess! I wish us a successful alliance!"
Yan Mingshu took the wine vessel directly and drank the wine in it in one gulp.
Seeing this, the Overlord showed no sign of backing down.
......
Yingkelou is located in Dongcheng.
It was only thirty li away from the Prince of Han's residence.
This is the intersection of the common people and the powerful.
Many speculators often wait here for the favor of the powerful and wealthy.
Therefore, Yingkelou is very popular, but it is not noisy.
But tonight, the Yingkelou restaurant is deathly silent.
Upstairs, Jin Yao wiped the last trace of blood from the corner of his mouth.
He didn't rush to leave, but instead walked downstairs.
The three-day hunt in the city made him fond of human life.
Inevitably, he also developed a liking for some human hobbies.
For example, drinking tea.
By now, the tea should have been brewed.
There's a reason why Chi Mei sent her.
Although their combat strength is average, they excel at learning.
When I get back this time, I'll ask Chi Mei for her.
When Jin Yao reached the second floor, he stopped.
In the center of the first floor sat a man in a black robe.
The face exposed to the air was still a bloody mess.
A tiger-head knife sits on the table.
Another black knife was held against the neck of the woman in the white dress.
The woman in the white dress breathed a sigh of relief when Jin Yao came down.
The messenger has arrived, so she will not die!
"Li Fan?"
Jin Yao looked at Li Fan with a surprised expression, while continuing to walk downstairs.
As he walked, he said, "My name is Jin Yao, a member of the Ten Thousand Demons Sect."
This time, we've come to retrieve the clansman who awakened his primordial divine power.
I'll leave immediately once you hand it over.
As for your kidnapping of White Fang, I can pretend it never happened!
Jin Yao's calm tone carried an undisguised arrogance.
In its eyes, it was already an honor for Li Fan not to pursue the matter.
After all, it originated from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.
Li Fan, however, was just an ordinary person.
Below the gates of immortality, all are but ants.
This is a truth that has remained unchanged for three thousand years.
"Snap!"
Exterminate them, suppress them relentlessly.
The bones then shattered.
The white-clad woman's head, raised high into the air, was her response.
Her face was full of astonishment.
She seemed completely unprepared for Li Fan to dare to kill her.
The shock was quickly torn apart.
A giant snake head crashed down.
The enormous snake carcass showed no signs of struggling in its death throes.
The moment Li Fan killed the white snake, Blood Drinking was activated.
The surging demonic power within the White Snake had long since been completely plundered.
"Li Fan, how dare you!"
The sound was like thunder exploding in my ears.
Golden light suddenly appeared.
Jin Yao had already appeared beside Li Fan.
