After Li Xiangyi rescued Shan Gudao, his face was gloomy and he looked at the few people with sharp and fierce eyes.
Li Huashi popped her head out from behind Hu Qi and said fearlessly, "Go ahead and fight! Who can kill faster, you or us?"
As she spoke, Li Huashi turned her head back and gave orders to the other cards, "Go, each of you hold one hostage. If Hero Li dares to take action, we will help him and clear the door."
When Li Xiangyi heard this, he clenched the sword in his hand, and his eyes looked as if he wanted to cut Li Huashi into pieces.
Hu Qi: "Mr. Li, why bother? We were just after a sword in the beginning, and you have to make such a scene."
Li Huashi also laughed: "Yes, yes, look at what you have done to the brothers of Si Gu Men. It's all your fault."
Li Xiangyi looked at the two shameless people in front of him and sneered: "The Sigu Sect represents more than just a sect in the martial arts world. Have you thought about the consequences of your actions today?"
Li Huashi raised her eyebrows: "Hmm? Master Li, do you want to settle the score with Anhu later? Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome. We are just businessmen. As long as you can afford the price, we will kill anyone you want."
As she spoke, Li Huashi reached out and patted Hu Qi beside her: "Including this one."
Hu Qi glanced at Li Hua Shi, and knowing what she was up to, he couldn't help laughing.
When Li Xiangyi heard this, he glanced at Hu Qi, who was not angry but had a smile in his eyes. He felt that the people in Dark Lake were crazy and their brains were abnormal.
Li Xiangyi: "Since you already know that all this is just a test by the Sigumen and the imperial court against Anhu, then you should know that even if you take the sword away, I can still get it back later."
Li Huashi: "But we got 50,000 taels of gold~"
Li Xiangyi choked and said, "I'll give you the rest of the money. You give me the antidote and then leave."
Li Huashi shook her head: "No, we must take the sword away and wait for that Mr. Pei to redeem it with money.
We have to go through the process, otherwise people in this world will think that our first business deal in Dark Lake has failed.
Moreover, you want to preserve Si Gumen's reputation with only 50,000 taels of gold. Isn't that too wishful?
What's more, we are just honest people doing business, and you were the ones who set up a trap to provoke us first."
Li Xiangyi: "Heh... an honest man who behaves according to his duty, dares to kill even the emperor?"
Li Huashi: "Mr. Li, there are so many people in this world who brag about themselves. We are just one of them. We are all good citizens! How dare we kill the emperor?"
Good citizen? Li Xiangyi was amused by Li Huashi's shamelessness.
"Okay, in that case, you name a price. How much is it for the reputation of your Dark Lake?"
Li Huashi: "Fifty thousand taels of gold."
Li Xiangyi: "Why don't you go and rob it?"
Li Huashi: "Isn't this just a robbery?"
Li Xiangyi was so angry: "Antidote!"
Li Huashi: "I only gave them drugs that can numb their consciousness. They are not fatal. They will wake up after they have enough sleep. Speaking of which, since they have been infected, how come you must not have noticed that there is something wrong with the porridge? How come you are fine?"
Li Xiangyi sneered: "This kind of poison is not worth mentioning to me."
Li Huashi raised her eyebrows: "Oh~ ok, how about it? Have you decided, do you want to hand over the sword or pay the money?"
Li Xiangyi's eyes changed, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Okay, I can give you the sword, but I want to buy a question."
Li Huashi: "Tell me what the problem is."
Li Xiangyi: "Is An Hu's purpose the Si Gu Men or the imperial court?"
Li Huashi: "I can answer this question without charging you any money. No, I've already said that we are just businessmen. We only do it for money. We will do anything for money."
Li Xiangyi: "Including killing the emperor?"
Li Huashi: "If the other party can afford the price, but Master Li thinks, who in the world can afford to kill the emperor?
Who dares to pay money to buy the emperor's life?
If we are sick, are they also sick?
And didn’t we say we wouldn’t kill good people? I thought it was obvious that we were good citizens.”
Li Xiangyi looked at Li Huashi, who was so shameless that he even scolded himself, and was too lazy to argue with him about the topic of good citizens.
Li Xiangyi: "What is your status in Dark Lake?"
Li Huashi: "Hehe, one hundred taels of silver."
Li Xiangyi sneered: "No need, you don't know martial arts, and you sneaked into the Si Gu Men by pretending to be pitiful, so it's easy to guess what your identity is in Dark Lake."
Li Hua Shi understood that Li Xiangyi thought she was a spy.
Li Huashi didn't explain, but arrogantly ordered Li Xiangyi: "Hand over the sword, and also, return our Huqi's scimitar! Hurry up!"
Li Xiangyi looked at Li Huashi who was hiding behind Huqi and cursed inwardly: A dog relying on the power of his master.
With a cold snort, Li Xiangyi used the Shao Shi sword to pick up Hu Qi's scimitar and flew towards him.
Hu Qi stretched out his hand to catch the scimitar with his sword, and Li Xiangyi seized the opportunity, ejected a small stone from his hand, and rushed forward at the same time.
The stones hit the wrists of several Anhu men who were holding hostages with swords in the hall.
Li Xiangyi moved too quickly, and his attention was distracted by the scene in front of him for a moment.
So Hu Qi stretched out his hand to block the flying scimitar but he was too late to stop Li Xiangyi.
In order to protect Li Huashi, Hu Qi could not dodge, so he could only pull Li Huashi behind him and use his own body to directly block Li Xiangyi's sword.
