As Xiao Lü was about to leave, Yang Qi grabbed her arm. "Miss Xiao Lü, you're too tired. Let me take you home."
"No, no need, I..." Xiao Lü felt extremely hot and uncomfortable all over, and didn't even have the strength to push Yang Qi away.
Yang Qi chuckled, put his arm around Xiao Lü's waist, and walked outside. "Don't worry, I'm here!"
Xiao Lü's gaze suddenly became slightly dazed, and she followed Yang Qi out. The surrounding tourists smiled knowingly as they saw Yang Qi leaving with his arm around Xiao Lü.
At that moment, Mo Chen and Li Hao were on their way back when they happened to see the two of them walking out of the room.
Seeing Yang Qi walk out the door with Xiao Lü in his arms, Li Hao stared wide-eyed as she got into Yang Qi's carriage, his expression instantly changing. "Xiao Lü, how could she be with that guy..."
Mo Chen was also surprised to see Xiao Lü get into Yang Qi's carriage. He said, "This girl has been drugged!"
Li Hao immediately panicked, "What?"
Li Hao was about to rush forward when Mo Chen quickly grabbed him, saying, "Why are you in such a hurry? There are too many people around, and he has a lot of people with him. Even if you go, you might not be able to save him!"
"But I can't just stand by and watch Xiao Lü..."
"Don't worry, don't worry, let's follow him and rescue them when he gets there!" Mo Chen comforted him.
Li Hao finally nodded. "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Yang Qi, sitting in the carriage, chuckled as he looked at the dazed Xiao Lü. "This bewitching powder is not only an aphrodisiac, but also a drug that controls people's minds. Without an antidote, no matter how chaste you are, you will obediently come to my bed!"
Xiao Lü stared blankly at Yang Qi, offering no resistance whatsoever.
Yang Qi laughed heartily and said to the coachman, "Let's go back to the manor!"
The carriage left the "Idle Restaurant," with Mo Chen and Li Hao following closely behind. In the blink of an eye, the carriage stopped at the "General's Mansion," and Yang Qi led Xiao Lü inside.
Mo Chen frowned. "Things are getting complicated. I didn't expect this kid to have connections with the General's Mansion!"
"Brother Mo Chen, I must save Xiao Lü no matter what!" Li Hao said urgently when he saw that Mo Chen was about to back down.
Mo Chen thought for a moment and said, "Because the Sage Competition is about to begin, I cannot reveal my identity. So I can only help you distract the people outside, and you go to rescue them yourself."
"Okay!" Li Hao nodded without hesitation.
Mo Chen grabbed Li Hao's arm, leaped onto the roof, and jumped directly into the General's Mansion. Li Hao was shocked but only felt admiration for Mo Chen!
"Brother Mo, Brother Mo Chen, you're amazing!" Li Hao exclaimed in a daze.
"Heh, what's so special about that? I'll show you something even better next time!" Mo Chen chuckled and said, "Come on, this way."
The two men evaded the patrolling soldiers and arrived at Yang Qi's door.
"The person should be inside. Go in and beat that scumbag up first, then I'll lure him away and come back to you!" Mo Chen said.
Li Hao nodded. "Okay!"
Li Hao couldn't wait any longer, so he kicked the door open and burst in, just in time to see Yang Qi preparing to undress Xiao Lü. He immediately flew into a rage and punched him, yelling, "Stop! You scum!"
Yang Qi was startled when he saw the person who had arrived. "It's you?!"
Seeing Xiao Lü's blank expression, Li Hao trembled with rage. "You bastard! Die!"
Li Hao roared, and Yang Qi was taken aback, quickly retreating to avoid the attack.
Yang Qi looked at Li Hao and couldn't help but mock, "I thought you were so great! Turns out you're just a fool who only knows how to use pure brute force!"
Li Hao's face flushed with anger, and he threw another punch, which Yang Qi calmly dodged. "Heh, don't waste your energy. You think you're qualified to barge into my General's Mansion with your pathetic skills?"
As he spoke, Yang Qi suddenly raised his hand and threw a thunderous punch back. It was many times faster than Li Hao's punch. Not only did he dodge Li Hao's punch, but he also hit Li Hao hard in the chest.
"Ugh—" Li Hao groaned, a trickle of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.
"Hmph, overestimating yourself!" Yang Qi laughed loudly, raising his foot and kicking Li Hao in the chest.
Li Hao immediately collapsed to the side, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his breath weak and listless.
Yang Qi sneered, "I really misjudged you before. How could I have made an enemy of such a fool as you? You're not even worthy of carrying my shoes!"
Li Hao gritted his teeth and glared at Yang Qi with a look of resentment.
Yang Qi sneered, picked up the sword hanging to the side, and walked step by step toward Li Hao. "For those who ruin my plans, I always kill one if they're one, and two if they're two! So... please die!"
Yang Qi drew his sword and slashed fiercely at Li Hao. Just when Li Hao thought he was about to die, a sudden gust of wind struck, and the blade, which was about to reach him, snapped in two. In the end, the blade only grazed the tip of Li Hao's nose.
Yang Qi was stunned, staring blankly at his injured and broken sword blade, then suddenly realized, "Who?!"
"If you want to live, let them go!" A cold, aged voice echoed in the room, like a ghost.
Yang Qi shuddered and said respectfully, "May I ask which senior you are..."
"Enough with the nonsense, quickly give the antidote to that girl and let them both leave!"
As he spoke, a powerful gust of wind swept towards Yang Qi, who immediately felt a powerful force pressing down on his body. Unable to withstand this force, Yang Qi collapsed to his knees.
Yang Qi was filled with fear, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably. As far as he knew, among all the powerful figures in the entire Mighty Dragon Kingdom, no one could exude such terrifying pressure!
