"No problem."

Li Yun turned his head and looked at Ma Xianhong, who was tense and looked as if he was facing a great enemy, and said softly: "It was me who came here presumptuously and failed to inform Village Chief Ma in advance. I hope Village Chief Ma will not blame me..."

"How could that be!" Ma Xianhong chuckled. "It is an honor for Biyou Village that Brother Li is willing to come to my village. I just don't know why Brother Li came to my small village of Biyou?"

Li Yun said calmly: "Of course it's for your Divine Machine Hundred Refinements."

At this time, Fu Rong, who heard the conversation between the two, finally understood the identity of the man in front of her. She couldn't help but sneered, "Will the descendants of the Qi family army also rob others' things?"

"Fu Rong!"

Ma Xianhong frowned and said softly, then looked at Li Yun and said calmly: "Don't talk nonsense, Brother Li, haven't you made a move yet?"

Li Yun said calmly: "If we can get the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements without taking any action, that would be the best..."

"Shameless!" Fu Rong said indignantly, "Can't you see that we are in a hurry to help our companions? You take advantage of their danger and stop them. What's the difference between your behavior and extortion?"

Li Yun shook his head: "Don't worry, the company is a state-owned enterprise after all, and they will act with propriety and will not harm the lives of innocent people."

Fu Rong glared at him and said, "Bullshit, you've already set the village on fire, and you still say you have some sense?"

Li Yun didn't care about Fu Rong's reaction. He just looked at Ma Xianhong and said, "Village Chief Ma, what do you think?"

Ma Xianhong fell silent, then suddenly smiled and said, "It seems that if I don't hand over the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements today, I won't be able to pass Brother Li's test. Well, I can give it to you, but I have a condition!"

Li Yun asked thoughtfully: "What conditions?"

Ma Xianhong said seriously: "Help me calm down the riot tonight..."

The man in the suit asked in surprise: "You want us to help you deal with the company?"

Ma Xianhong turned his head to look at him and said calmly, "I haven't asked you yet, who is this?"

Ye Zixun laughed at himself and said, "He is just a nobody whose cultivation is so low that he can't even hide his breathing!"

Ma Xianhong smiled faintly and said, "Brother, you are joking. How can I be a companion to Brother Li? How can my cultivation be low? Oh, by the way, Brother Zuo is not here?"

Li Yun said calmly: "Here he is. Calculating the time, he should have taken your self-cultivation furnace away by now."

“…”

Ma Xianhong was slightly stunned, as if he didn't expect Li Yun to be so frank.

Fu Rong's eyes widened, and she could no longer suppress her anger. She shouted, "You are indeed a group of bandits. You want to empty Biyou Village, right?!"

Before she finished her words, Fu Rong, unable to suppress her anger, pulled out the machete from her waist and swung it fiercely towards Li Yun.

Ma Xianhong came to his senses and hurriedly tried to stop it, but it was too late.

In an instant, the sharp Qi blade broke away from the blade, like a bright streak of silk, slashing towards Li Yun and Ye Zixun with a whistling sound.

“Zheng——”

Amid the sound of metal clashing, the condensed Qi blade was held in the palm of a hand, unable to move forward an inch.

Li Yun stood in front of Ye Zixun calmly, holding the condensed Qi blade in his right hand, looking at Fu Rong who was full of astonishment and said calmly: "This should be the legendary sword energy, it really is a good method!"

"It's sword energy!" Fu Rong came back to her senses and said with wide eyes, "This is sword energy!"

Ye Zixun couldn't help but laugh and said, "Can a slash from a machete be considered sword energy?"

"It's all the same..."

Li Yun shook his head, exerted a little force with his fingers, and instantly crushed the Qi blade in his palm.

Seeing this scene, Fu Rong didn't bother to argue with Ye Zixun. She couldn't help but take a few steps back and looked at Li Yun as if he were a monster.

"You caught the sword energy with your hands and crushed it. Are you really a human?"

"Fu Rong, I told you a long time ago not to act rashly. You are not yet a match for Brother Li."

Ma Xianhong grabbed Fu Rong's wrist and asked her to put down the machete, then turned his head and glanced at Li Yun and said, "You said Brother Zuo has taken my self-cultivation furnace away, I don't think so, Brother Li, do you think I am the kind of person who would not leave any protective measures?"

Li Yun shook his head and said, "Of course not."

Ma Xianhong smiled and said, "There has been no sound coming from the direction of the Xiushen Hall, which means my protective measures have not been activated. Brother Li, if I am not mistaken, Brother Zuo should not have come with you, right?"

Li Yun did not answer directly, but said lightly: "I know that there are many puppets you refined around your self-cultivation furnace, but these puppets of yours should only have the protection mechanism set up in advance, and will only react to the Qi close to the self-cultivation furnace..."

Ma Xianhong's face was gloomy: "What do you mean?"

Ye Zixun explained with a smile: "It means that we have many ways to bypass your protective measures."

After hearing Ye Zixun's explanation, Ma Xianhong's heart finally sank.

He suppressed his anger and said, "Brother Li, I have no grudge against you, and you are not in the same group with the company, so why do you have to make things difficult for me?"

Li Yun said calmly: "An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure. You possess one of the Eight Wonders, the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements, but you act ostentatiously. Not only did you establish the Biyou Village and the New Jiejiao, you also dared to blatantly oppose the company. Such behavior is no different from a child possessing a huge fortune but flaunting it in public..."

Ma Xianhong sneered: "So you guys want to step on it too?"

Li Yun shook his head and said, "No, we plan to give you a chance..."

Ma Xianhong was slightly startled, frowned and asked: "What opportunity?"

Li Yun chuckled and said, "Didn't you say that if we help you quell the riot tonight, you will hand over the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements to us? Okay, I'll give you an answer now. I can't quell the riot, but I can help you get through this disaster!"

Ma Xianhong frowned and said, "Help me get through this disaster. Is this the opportunity you mentioned?"

Li Yun nodded and said, "That's right."

"How do we survive this disaster?"

"Accept our help, break down and then rebuild, and turn the whole into pieces."

Hearing Li Yun's words, Ma Xianhong seemed to be thinking about something. After a little thought, he took out a ball and threw it to Li Yun.

"This is the Devouring Capsule, which contains the secret manual of the Divine Machine Hundred Refinements. I hope you can keep your promise..."

Ma Xianhong said calmly, and then strode past the two of them with the confused Fu Rong.

Ye Zixun stood there in a daze, his eyes wandering between the backs of Ma Xianhong and the other man, and the blue secret book in Li Yun's hand.

"That's it?" Ye Zixun couldn't help but ask, "You got it right now?"

"What else?" Li Yun glanced at him, "Do you still want to beat Ma Xianhong to death?"

Ye Zixun said helplessly: "I thought we were on the company's side."

Li Yun put away the sac, patted Ye Zixun on the shoulder and said seriously: "Yes, I am on the company's side, so I can't take action. If there is a need for action later, I can only rely on you!"

"ah?"

Ye Zixun’s eyes widened. Wasn’t he here just to join in the fun? How did he suddenly become the main force?

…

After leaving this place, Ma Xianhong quickly jumped onto a tree and looked towards the village where flames were shooting up into the sky.

Through the red lens on his left eye and the scattered flying insect puppets, Ma Xianhong observed the situation in the village and outside the village.

Qiu Rang, one of the twelve most powerful people, was running back and forth in the village with a group of people, shouting and extinguishing the raging fire. The other most powerful people were led into the forest outside the village by temporary workers, and were divided into several battlefields and defeated one by one.

Just as Zhang Chulan said, none of these temporary workers are easy to mess with.

Even though the top talents under his command were already rare experts among extraordinary people, they still appeared immature and weak when facing these temporary workers.

At this time, four top-level talents including Liu Wukui, Ding Zihuan, Zhong Xiaolong and Hari Chagai had been defeated by the temporary workers, and the remaining top-level talents either disappeared or were at a disadvantage in the tough battle.

Looking at his subordinates who had fallen at the hands of temporary workers, Ma Xianhong sighed quietly.

"Sorry, everyone, I frightened you all..."

Ma Xianhong spoke softly, and passed on a message to everyone through the flying insect puppets: "Tonight, Biyou Village was attacked by the enemy. The attackers were those who entered the village a few days ago. They wanted to arrest Chen Duo, but I refused. I won't explain the details. What I want to say is that I will protect Chen Duo and will go to war with them for this!"

"This battle has nothing to do with you. From a standpoint, you cannot judge between good and evil. Remember, fighting is just my personal choice. The only ones who should face the battle are Chen Duo and I..."

"Listen carefully to what I'm going to say next. This place is about to become a battlefield. Everyone, including those with high aptitude, must get down the mountain. Don't have any psychological burden. Listen to me and leave immediately!"

Hearing Ma Xianhong's loud shout, Fu Rong under the tree couldn't help but look surprised.

"Master, are the superior ones also going to leave?"

"..." Ma Xianhong glanced at her and sighed, "Leave. Brother Li is right. I acted too ostentatiously. Sooner or later, this disaster will happen. You are just innocent people affected by me. There is no need to pay for my mistakes."
