Chapter 241 Heroes
Yin Shiyi returned to Mingyue Seven Star Pavilion to take charge of the overall situation there.
Qi Xiao went to the battlefield after returning to Zuihuayin yesterday and never showed up again. Whether for his own future or for the Qi family, he could not escape during the most difficult time for Zuoqiumen.
The sky gradually brightened.
A simple horse-drawn carriage drove out of the underground underworld, and the driver was a martial artist at the Yongquan realm.
Li Weiyi, Shi Shishi and Bai Shu were all sitting in the car, each with different thoughts.
Bai Shu is a telekinetic practitioner who has no obsession with dragon bones and dragon seeds. She just wants to escape from the battlefield and avoid the killing. However, as a member of the Earth Wolf King Army, she cannot escape her responsibilities.
Shi Shishi glanced at Li Weiyi secretly, not knowing how his injury had recovered. He sighed dejectedly, "The dragon bone ticket I hid was dug up by someone. I chased it for two days but couldn't get it back."
“If hiding tickets was reliable, everyone would have hidden them!”
Li Weiyi smelled blood and opened the car window.
A cold draft blew in.
On the streets filled with morning mist, Yongquan Realm martial artists from various forces were collecting corpses and cleaning the streets.
Passing by a mansion, the owner was a Daozhong realm expert, and his servants and concubines were happily lighting firecrackers to welcome the Lantern Festival. The air was filled with the pungent smell of gunpowder.
No matter how cruel the Qianlong Lantern Festival is, it is just a battlefield for young martial artists in the Five Seas Realm.
“Bang!”
The wheels rolled forward.
From time to time, you can see traces of battles and the bodies of young heroes exposed on the streets. Whether they are pure immortal bodies or stunning beauties, they are all treated like grass.
Several days of brutal competition brought the festive atmosphere in the city to a freezing point, and there were few pedestrians.
Li Weiyi asked, "Did Zuoqiuhong and the others perish? Are Cangli and Li Ling still alive?"
Shi Shishi shook his head: "I don't know! These past few days, the major forces in Qiuzhou City have been fighting each other in chaos, and true and false news are flying everywhere. Some even say that you died at the hands of Ge Xiantong and died suddenly after escaping."
"Anyway, Zuoqiuhong and his men suffered heavy casualties. The three families of Zuoqiu, Jiuli, and Zhumen, as well as the forces under the three families, have lost 60 to 70 percent of the dozens of masters in the entire faction. There may only be a dozen or twenty people left alive."
"Yesterday evening, Zuo Qiuhong threw all the immortality pill tickets, dragon seed tickets, and dragon bone tickets to the besiegers. Then, he led the remaining troops to withdraw and hid."
"That's how the news spread. It's hard to say whether he escaped or not."
"If he escaped, perhaps he wanted to rest for a night, heal his wounds and recuperate, and then retreat to advance, preparing for today's decisive battle."
Among the two hundred martial artists in the city, only the top few in a state, or the top masters of a sect or school, are qualified to join.
As powerful as the Dao Truth and the Extinction Truth as Coffin Mountain are, they are only of B grade.
There are more than a dozen inheritors in the Southern Territory alone. Some of them are already famous all over the world, some are from hidden sects, or some are hidden masters of major forces.
Everybody took out all their savings!
In the other three realms, the number of inheritors is less than that in the Southern Realm, but there are still at least six or seven people.
Sixty to seventy percent of the three alliance's martial artists were killed in the battle, including dozens of Dao Truth and Extinction Truth masters. The rest of the Five Seas Realm martial artists and great mind masters suffered countless casualties.
Shi Shi said: "Of the two hundred martial artists, at most half are left. Fewer people at the inheritor level have perished, so it is estimated that there are about ten of them in total!"
Li Weiyi fell silent. He deeply realized the good intentions of Jiang Ning, Yin Jun and Zuo Qiu Hongting when they advised him not to participate in the Qianlong Lantern Festival. They had foreseen all this.
What is their mentality? Do they know the dangers but still face them head-on?
Or is it that you have no choice but to do it?
"This is not a grand event!" Jiang Ning's warning sounded in Li Weiyi's ears again beside the fishing boat.
This is a battlefield...
A life-and-death battlefield! Shi Shi said: "The Qianlong Lantern Club is much better than the real battlefield outside. At least there are rules. It's just a fight between the younger generation. You can retreat and hide."
"Where is Tao Yanyan?" Li Weiyi suddenly asked.
Shi Shishi was silent.
Bai Shu said: "Sister Tao Zi was killed in the wolf's den on the tenth day of the lunar month. She was unable to escape."
"Who did it?" Li Weiyi asked.
"I don't know! There are countless forces of all sizes in Qiuzhou City, and each master has his own background. For Tao Yanyan's dragon bone ticket, anyone could be involved."
Bai Shu and Shi Shishi smiled bitterly and shook their heads.
Most of the forces in the Qianlong Lantern Society fell before the seventh day of the first lunar month, or were destroyed, or became vassals of tens of millions of sects. But in the world situation, these forces are still independent individuals, all of them have giants in the realm of immortality, and even some are transcendent, dominating one side like a behemoth.
Although the Earth Wolf King Army only had two or three small cats at the Qianlong Lantern Festival, the Stone King, the Great Master, the Bird Second Master, and the mighty Earth Wolf Iron Cavalry behind them were able to call the shots in Shuzhou.
"My injuries have almost recovered! You guys go to Changqing Temple in East City and wait for me. I will be there before noon."
Li Weiyi jumped out of the car, used a disguise technique, and disappeared into the crowd.
Before the decisive battle, he wanted to meet Yinjun, so he sneaked all the way to Zhuoyuan.
After knocking on the door, it was Yin Ershiwu who opened it.
Seeing Li Weiyi, Yin Ershiwu was obviously startled. He quickly welcomed him in, then closed the door and sealed the formation.
"Thank God, it was all just rumors. We really thought you had..."
"Why, do you think you don't have to pay me back?"
After entering the house, Li Weiyi was stunned when he saw the corpses all over the garden and the white cloth draped over them. He then released his telekinesis to sense that the garden was deserted, with no one except Yin Twenty-Five.
"What's going on? Where are they?" Li Weiyi asked in a deep voice.
Yin Twenty-Five lowered his head and whispered, "I just helped collect the bodies."
“What do you mean by just helping to collect the bodies? The Jiuli tribe’s Yongquan realm martial artists know how to do it, but you are in the Five Seas realm. If you get involved, you will die without a burial place.” Li Weiyi’s voice was deafening.
A quarter of an hour later.
There was a knock on the door.
Yin Twenty-Five cautiously stared at Li Weiyi who was sitting on a white rock by the lake.
"Go ahead and open the door for those heroes." Li Weiyi said.
The gate and the formation opened, and Yin Twenty-three, Yin Twenty-four, and Yao Yin, all wearing night clothes, emerged from invisibility. Then, they took out the bloody boundary bag and took out the corpses inside, all of which were pure immortal bodies or women's bodies.
Yin Twenty-four gritted his teeth, clenched his fists, and his chest heaved. "It's all your fault. I haven't killed enough people yet. You are so shameless and despicable. You even spared the corpses. You are totally inhumane."
"They were not human beings originally." Yin Twenty-three said.
"Hmm, cough cough..."
Yin Twenty-five winked at them repeatedly.
The three of them looked into the distance and saw Li Weiyi sitting there like a sculpture. They were startled at first, then overjoyed, and then became nervous again.
Li Weiyi had a blank expression on his face, staring coldly at Hidden Twenty-Four: "Since you are so capable, why don't you go out and kill some more?"
"Okay, let's go together?" Yin Twenty-four said.
“…”
Li Weiyi couldn't bear her anymore and stood up: "Who told you to act without my permission? Who took the lead?"
"Me!" Yao Yin said.
"Me!" Yin Twenty-four said.
"Me!" Yin Twenty-three said.
There was no other choice, so the guard Yin Twenty-Five also stepped forward and whispered, "Me!"
Li Weiyi said: "Good, good, good, they are all heroes."
Yao Yin was the youngest, his eyes were still red, he was the first to soften, "Those monsters, ember spirits, and various evil demons wanted to force Cangli, Yinjiu, Li Ling and the others to show up. They cooked the bodies of the pure immortal body martial artists of the Jiuli tribe in a cauldron, stripped the bodies of the female martial artists, and hung them on the city gates. How can we tolerate such a great humiliation?"
Yin Twenty-four raised his chin and said, "We didn't do anything risky. We just snatched the bodies back from those low-level martial artists who collected the bodies."
"How can this be tolerated?" Yin Twenty-Three said.
Li Weiyi frowned. The enemy's methods were indeed crude, but they might work wonders when used on Cangli.
This is also good news!
At least it means they are still alive.
Li Weiyi paced back and forth, looking coldly at Hidden Twenty-Four: "You just rely on the possession of that blood-refined magic weapon. Hand it over to me."
Yin Twenty-four covered the three-headed snake bracelet on his wrist and sneered, "Don't you also rely on the Blood Hand Seal Magic Armor and the Purple Thunder Seal?"
"How dare you talk back?" Li Weiyi said.
Hidden Twenty-Four said: "We are just collecting a corpse. How capable are you? You dared to kill Hua Yuzi and fight Ge Xiantong. There are rumors flying around outside that you have died suddenly. Are we afraid that we will find your body when we collect the corpses? Are we afraid that your body will be exposed on the street and your head will be eaten by wild dogs? Li Weiyi, you are a hidden man. I tell you, from now on, even if you are thousands of miles away, a hundred thousand miles away or even farther away... As long as we know the news of your death, we will definitely go to bring you back, thousands of miles away... I will go too!"
"You can curse me as hard as you can!"
Yin Ershiwu had already moved a chair and placed it behind the furious Li Weiyi.
After Li Weiyi sat down, Yao Yin took the initiative to come forward and massage his shoulders and back. She whispered softly: "We are really cautious and will not act on our own initiative in the future."
"Everyone swears in the name of the God of Jiuli that you cannot leave my garden today. Also, prepare the midnight snack, and I will bring Yin Jiu and Yin Shiyi back safely. Whoever is the most obedient will have the opportunity to get the dragon bone and dragon seed." Li Weiyi closed his eyes and enjoyed the massage of Yao Yin's soft hands.
Hearing this, the eyes of the people present became hot.
Yin Ershisi's pretty face was full of surprise: "Dragon bones and dragon seeds, do we have a chance to get them too?"
"You? You are a rebellious person. You can't refine the dragon bone. You should make me angry more in the future."
"You should supervise each other, heroes supervise heroes, good men supervise good men, and stop causing trouble."
Li Weiyi stood up and forced them all to swear an oath before leaving Zhuoyuan.
Before leaving, he glanced at the corpses all over the garden, his eyes became solemn, and his determination became firmer.
Since I didn’t meet Yin Jun, I could only communicate and discuss with the three masters.
He said, "If I attack the fifth level of the Five Seas Realm and push myself into higher waves, will it be too dangerous? You know this world better than I do."
"Why don't you give up?"
Master Guan strongly objected. Three months of tempering was his bottom line.
Li Weiyi said: "I know about martial arts, and I have a way to stabilize my energy temporarily. After the Qianlong Lantern Festival, I will concentrate on retreating for a period of time and never act willfully again."
"Then fight! It's just the Five Seas Realm, why should we be so timid? If the Zuoqiu Clan and the Jiuli Clan can't handle such a small matter, it would be better for them to throw away the reputation of the Ten Thousand Clans and Ten Thousand Ancient Clans in advance."
It is the sound of observing the fog in the sea of Zen.
The spiritual master said: "Since you have a way to temporarily stabilize your energy, I also support you to move forward as you wish. Practicing is like sharpening a sword. You need to hide your edge at ordinary times, and you must strike out with the most gorgeous sword at the critical moment."
"For the sake of the elixir of life, dragon seeds and dragon bones, this risk is worth taking. This is your first battle as a hidden god, so you can show your courage." said Master Coffin.
