Chapter 76: The Stream
Yaoguan City, Zaomei Manor.
It was nearly dawn and the sky was still dark, and many people had not slept the whole night.
Inside the manor, the candles had been replaced once, leaving traces of wax. Nearly a hundred figures gathered in the front yard, surrounding the silver corpse that had just been brought back and split in half.
Half of the people present were martial artists of the younger generation of the Jiuli tribe. They had all been trained for a long time and were not afraid of the corpses. Instead, they were amazed at them.
"This is Xue Zheng!"
"Even before Xue Zheng transformed into a pure immortal body, he was already ranked fourth in Qiquan Hall."
"In the past few days, the Xue clan and the Sui clan have been building momentum, claiming that Xue Zheng will definitely break the Jiuquan ancestral land. Jiuquan's pure immortal body is extremely rare in any state, and can be the inheritor of millions of families. It is obvious that they want to train him to compete with my Jiuli clan."
"If it was someone from the older generation, or someone below the Five Seas Realm who did this, this would be a big deal! The Xue Clan and the Sui Clan will never let this go!"
…
Cangli squatted down, and used his fingers to carefully touch the place where the sword had cut the body apart, and used his fighting skills to sense it. In his mind, two figures were outlined, and the vague scene of Li Weiyi performing the last sword strike emerged, as if he had witnessed it with his own eyes.
His deep eyes revealed an expression of disbelief, and he stood up and said, "It was his sword that did it! And the one he used was the unique skill of Heavenly Dao and Law Combination that he had cultivated. It was exactly the same aura as the place where Yao Zhengsheng's head was split open."
The spiritual light in the center of Li Ling's brow flickered like stars. "That's his aura. I can sense it. I told you that he couldn't be afraid of Xue Zheng, but you didn't believe me."
The younger generation of cultivators of the Jiuli tribe around were all amazed and talked about it.
"Could it be that he has broken through to the Five Seas?" Li Qing'er asked.
Cangli shook his head: "When the Five Seas Realm and the Yongquan Realm perform the same sword technique, the charm and aura are absolutely different. If he has already broken through the Five Seas Realm, this sword will definitely be more domineering."
Li Songlin's face was very cold: "Then there is only one explanation, the only one who broke through to the Nine Springs Ancestral Sea is a great man."
"boom!"
These words exploded in everyone's hearts like thunder.
Nine Springs Sages were rarer than pure immortal bodies. In Lizhou, they were even rarer. Even a powerful family with millions of people like a local tyrant would often take ten years or even dozens of years to train a Nine Springs Sage.
Li Qing'er's expression froze. Thinking back to yesterday, she found it hard to associate that extremely desolate and introverted figure with Jiuquan Zhiren.
Jiuquan Zhiren is so brilliant that he can be cultivated as a signboard and top seed in any force.
"A great man who is less than 20 years old was forced away by a group of servile people. No wonder the Jiuli tribe has fallen into decline. It's all their fault." Li Songlin vented his anger in this way.
It's rare to find a successor with both good character and talent, where can I find him now? ...
It was daybreak, with a faint light of dawn.
The four of them were traveling through the mountains.
Shi Liuyu was skinny and his normal-sized robes were too loose for him. He said to Shi Jiuzhai who was walking beside him, "Old Jiu, I heard a piece of news yesterday that the head of the Cangli tribe opened a coffin from another world at Zaomei Manor and found something extraordinary."
"What?"
Shi Jiuzhai was like a poor man reborn. He was extremely interested in treasures and money and was immediately attracted to them.
Shi Liuyu said, "The coffin is not open... You see, you are anxious again, listen to me to finish. That alien coffin is said to be from Kunlun. The coffin itself is comparable to a thousand-year-old fine medicine. It's not one fine medicine, but one catty of coffin and one catty of thousand-year-old fine medicine."
Shi Jiuzhai's pupils shrank sharply, he held his breath slightly, and immediately stopped: "Is the news true? Um... You are not interested in Li Songgu's wife, and want to trick me into working for you, and then do something else for yourself? But I heard that Li Songgu's wife is a pure immortal body, she looks young and beautiful, and has a unique charm."
"Bah! Bah... We are brothers, why would I try to trick you? What happened when the coffin was opened yesterday has spread throughout Yaoguan City. You can confirm it by asking anyone." Shi Liuyu said.
Shi Jiuzhai's breathing quickened. He could not help but be moved. He turned to look at Li Weiyi and said, "You were at Zaomei Manor yesterday. You should know a lot about the coffin from another world, right?"
Li Weiyi's mind turned over and over, and he immediately realized who Li Songgu was trying to catch. Who else could it be except the Jiuzhai Dharma King who was famous for his love of money? But he was also worried that Shi Liuyu was really up to something evil.
It should be known that this King of Six Desires values women more than anything else, and has a very bad reputation in the southern region, and is almost hated by everyone.
Li Weiyi said: "The story of the coffin in another world is true, there is nothing much to say. But I have to advise King Liuyu that it is best not to touch the people in Zaomei Manor, otherwise even if I get the news of Jiuli Hidden Sect, I will never give it to you."
"You can't even protect yourself, and you still dare to threaten me?"
Shi Liuyu sneered, mobilized his magic power, rolled up his sleeves, and wanted to teach Li Weiyi a lesson.
Shi Shishi stopped him and said, "Sixth brother, he is worried that you will touch his sweetheart. Who can bear this? He will definitely fight you to death. Why don't you attack Yang Qingxi? Didn't you say that you wanted to make her flow? I have been waiting to see it!"
"Get lost! You are so young! Don't learn bad things from that bitch Qi Qing. What gurgling stream? I never said that."
Shi Liuyu saw that there was no fear in Li Weiyi's eyes, only coldness, so he took back his magic power and comforted him: "Don't worry, I, Shi Liuyu, also know how to steal. I will not target my own people, otherwise I will definitely be deserted by everyone and will not survive until now. As long as you work for us wholeheartedly, not to mention that your sweetheart has arranged everything for you, even if your sweetheart..."
Shi Jiuzhai knew that he was about to say some nonsense without any taboos, which might backfire, so he quickly coughed.
Shi Liuyu narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Even if you want to try the gurgling stream yourself, the long stream, and the sweet stream water, I can help you arrange it."
"I just want peace of mind, nothing else." Li Weiyi thought to himself, since Li Songgu knew that three Dharma Kings of the Earth Wolf King's army had come to Lizhou, he still dared to go fishing. It was obvious that he had made all the preparations, and his worries were slightly reduced.
Shi Liuyu took out three bean-sized pills and handed them over: "The Six Desires Talisman in your body will flare up once a month. Each time it flares up, you can take a pill to suppress it. So, you only have four months at most to go to Jiuli Hidden Sect."
"I heard that you and Yang Qingxi have a grudge. If you can complete the task in the first month, I will arrange for you to be a stream runner."
"What about completing the task in the second month?" Shi Shishi was very interested, his eyes bright.
Shi Liuyu said: "Then you can only line up behind me and be Yang Qingxi's second man."
"What about the third month?" Shi Shi asked.
Shi Liuyu said: "Then I can only be Yang Qingxi's third man."
"What about the fourth month?" Shi Shi asked.
Shi Liuyu smiled and said, "There are four of us here, what do you think? Will I treat you badly, Sixth Brother?"
"Forget it, forget it. I'm more interested in food and drink." Shi Shishi shook his head repeatedly.
Shi Liuyu said: "That's fine, I'll let you eat and drink when the time comes."
Li Weiyi would never believe Shi Liuyu's promise, and he had no interest in it. His heart was already filled with worries. After accepting the three pills, he asked, "What if after four months, I still cannot leave the Hidden Gate, and I have finished taking the pills, and the Six Desires Talisman takes effect? What should I do?"
"When the six desires kick in, you need six women every day to suppress your desires. Are you scared?" Shi Liuyu said.
Li Weiyi was obviously relieved: "I thought he would be killed immediately."
"Look, young people don't realize the seriousness of the situation." Shi Liuyu pointed at himself and said, "I used to be fatter than Lao Shi, but I was only tortured by the Six Desires Talisman for two months. The damage to my body can never be repaired."
Shi Liuyu patted Li Weiyi on the shoulder and said, "It's best to complete the task within four months, and then go to the Love Flower Boat in the Underworld Market of Jiuli City and find a woman named Bai Shu. She will bring you to me."
Shi Liu wanted to continue leading the way.
Shi Shishi suddenly realized something and said in surprise, "Sixth Brother, didn't he ask for hundreds of women in those two months? Oh my God!"
Shi Jiuzhai smiled and said to Li Weiyi on purpose, "Your sixth brother was punished by the Six Desires Talisman because he failed to complete the task assigned by the Heavenly King. He was locked up in the Wolf Cave for two months."
"Shut up, Lao Jiu."
Shi Liu wanted to kill Shi Jiuzhai so much that not only his eyes and hair turned green, but his face was also as green as vegetables.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
It was the first time that Shi Shishi knew such an explosive secret. He said with lingering fear: "The only thing is that the Earth Wolf King Army will not be stingy in rewarding those who have made contributions, but the punishment for those who fail to complete the task is also extremely cruel."
At this moment, Li Weiyi truly felt a chill down his spine and began to panic about the side effects of the Six Desires Talisman.
…
A mysterious old man in a black robe named Li sat in a carriage, looking at the four people coming towards him, his eyes scanning Shi Liuyu, Shi Jiuzhai and Shi Shishi one by one.
His tone was hoarse, covering up his real voice: "You should trust me as much as you trust the coffin mountain. Sending in other people will only increase the risk of the hidden sect getting suspicious."
"Don't worry, this kid has a very good relationship with your Jiuli tribe, and the Hidden Gate will never suspect anything." Shi Jiuzhai said with a smile.
"Since you insist, I will have no choice but to take him with me."
Then, the mysterious old man in black robes continued, "But every year, the nine departments will send at least one young man, and only one will survive in the end. If he died in the hands of Li Qing in the Hidden Sect, it was just due to the rules of the Hidden Sect."
Shi Liuyu chuckled and said, "He died in the Hidden Gate, so we have nothing to say. But... I planted the Six Desires Talisman in his body. Once he dies, I will have a subtle sense of it. If he dies on the way to the Hidden Gate, then we will have a lot to talk about."
“You are still doubting me! The Earth Wolf King’s army is so distrustful of its allies that I’m afraid it will be hard for them to achieve anything significant.” said the mysterious old man in black robe.
Shi Jiuzhai didn't care and looked at Li Weiyi: "Go! Don't worry, this old senior is one of the nine clan leaders of the Jiuli tribe. He will take you to the receiving place of the Hidden Gate safely."
The conversation between the few people just now set off a huge wave in Li Weiyi's heart, and he couldn't calm down.
How could Guanshan be involved? Didn't the Earth Wolf King Army put the blame on Guanshan?
Moreover, why would a clan leader collude with the barbarians? What was their intention in exploring the hidden sect? What kind of terrifying storm was behind this? I dared not think too deeply. The more I thought about it, the more uneasy I felt. I was not only worried about the safety of the Cangli tribe, but also Zhao Meng and Cai Yutong who were practicing in the Cangli tribe.
Li Weiyi tried his best to calm himself down, walked towards the carriage, and secretly observed the mysterious old man in the carriage.
However, the carriage was like a black hole, absorbing all the light and heat, and he could only see a black, old shadow. And that shadow, when he looked over, released a terrifying might.
Li Weiyi was so shocked that he almost fell to the ground.
This old man is far more terrifying than Shi Jiuzhai and Li Songlin, and is definitely one of the top few people in Lizhou.
The mysterious old man in black robe sneered and threw a black cloth bag out of the car: "Get on the car behind and put the telekinetic cloth bag on your head. It will block all your perceptions. This is the rule of the Hidden Door!"
Li Weiyi came to the rear car and got in. There was a tall and thin figure in black sitting inside. His entire head was covered with a black cloth bag and his back was straight.
This should be the great man in Jiuquan, Li Qing!
Li Weiyi sat down in the car, looked carefully, and memorized Li Qing's figure and breath.
A voice came from the car in front of us, urging us to put it on.
Not daring to disobey, he had to put the cloth bag over his head.
“Wow!”
The lower edge of the black cloth bag flashed with light and tightened instantly.
Li Weiyi was slightly panicked and found that his whole world had gone quiet. He could not hear any sound, see any light, or smell any odor. He could only feel the frame of the car moving forward under him.
Fortunately, the cloth bag is very breathable.
He was not interested in the route to the Hidden Gate, so he did not act rashly, but fell asleep in the carriage. Anyway, Master Guan knew where the Hidden Gate was, and he must know how to get in and out.
Besides, life and death are no longer in our control, so worrying is pointless. We might as well take this opportunity to recuperate.
The mysterious old man named Li, who was sitting in the front car, sensed Li Weiyi sleeping in the back car, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "The three Dharma Kings of the Earth Wolf King Army went out together, and they only found such a person? They are indeed a group of rabble, and it is difficult for them to achieve anything."
…
Li Weiyi was too sleepy. He was exhausted recently and wanted to have a good sleep in Yaoguan City. But he encountered many problems and not only did he not sleep, but he also had a fierce battle, which made him even more exhausted.
Wrapped in such a black cloth bag, I slept soundly, as if I wanted to make up for the sleep I lost in the past month.
I even dreamed of returning to Earth and playing baseball with my classmates and friends.
The baseball bat was very long and smooth, but someone always tried to snatch it. Fortunately, he was strong enough and held it firmly, so no one could snatch it from him.
When he woke up, he felt something pressing against his chest. In a daze, he quickly touched and pinched it with his hands, feeling its texture and material properties, but found that it was an extremely slender leg. The last time he pinched it, he touched the base of someone else's thigh, and his thumb lightly touched the lower abdomen.
Not Li Qing.
Because there is no...
