Yan Li said indifferently, "I trust him."
Jin Xiangyin sighed and said, "It is not appropriate for you to misunderstand me like this."
"Ah?" Yan Li was startled.
Jin Xiangyin said, "I am referring to his absent-mindedness. I am saying that he has something on his mind."
Yan Li blinked and said, "That seems to be correct."
"I am referring to his worries, not the possibility of him betraying you." Jin Xiangyin said with a bit of mockery, "His worries are most likely due to his own incompetence. Do you think Li Xueyi would bribe your subordinates to deal with you?"
"This junior has never been unduly humble." Yan Li smiled brilliantly.
Jin Xiangyin felt like there would be no end to this conversation. He said bluntly, "As long as you help me with one more thing, I will help you resolve his worries."
"How?" Yan Li said.
Jin Xiangyin said, "Don't worry about how I resolve it. Just agree or not."
"Senior, please speak." Yan Li said.
Jin Xiangyin said, "I want you to help me persuade Li Ku not to step into Heavenly Capital."
Yan Li's lips twitched. "This junior has never been unduly humble, nor has he thought too highly of himself. What kind of person is Li Ku? How could he listen to my advice? "
"As long as you persuade him, it should be fine." Jin Xiangyin said indifferently, "Or perhaps I just want you to bring a message. Whether he listens or not is his problem. Moreover, the opportunity I am going to give your subordinates is something countless people yearn for even in their dreams. Shouldn't you take a bit of risk? "
"Bringing a message is not a problem." Yan Li said.
"Then it's settled. Go with them first." Jin Xiangyin said.
Yan Li had no objections and went to find Lu Bai Chuan. "Bai Chuan, stay here for now. Senior has something to discuss with you. After you are done with him, hurry to Heavenly Capital. "
While Lu Bai Chuan was stunned, Yan Li had already left with his subordinates. He looked at Jin Xiangyin and said nervously, "Senior, what, what can I do for you?"
"Follow me and you'll know." Jin Xiangyin did not say anything else. She waved her hand and covered him with quicksand. She returned to Lihen Heaven and brought him straight. They passed through many palaces and climbed to a very high mountain. They came to a cave residence.
The huge black bronze door exuded a heavy and ancient sense of solemnity.
The Immortal's Cave had the name "Flying Dragon Divine General's Residence".
"Flying Dragon Divine General?" Lu Bai Chuan found the name somewhat familiar. He had been in the Jambu Kingdom for quite some time and had heard of the things that had happened in the human realm. He quickly recalled that the Flying Dragon Divine General was the most famous archer during the Fifteen Nations Period. Legend had it that he didn't shoot arrows, but flying dragons, so he was called the Flying Dragon Divine General.
Jin Xiangyin said, "He was a loner when he was alive and had no descendants. His lineage was left in Lihen Heaven. However, you will suffer some hardships. You have to be mentally prepared. "
"Me?" Lu Bai Chuan was startled at first before he became overjoyed, "Senior Fei Long's inheritance? Did you give it to me? "
Jin Xiangyin said, "Remember this well. Yan Li earned it for you." As she spoke, she went to open a mechanism, and the bronze door slowly opened.
"Dragon head …" Lu Bai Chuan was excited. He clenched his fists tightly and rushed in.
After two days, he walked out again. His upper body was bare, revealing his strong muscles. Two silver-blue dragons were engraved on his arms. The dragon heads were on the back of his hands, the dragon's body was straight over his shoulders, and the two dragon tails converged on his back, disappearing into his tailbone. There was a brand new bow on his back, also decorated with silver dragons and redbud flowers. The bowstring was as thick as a dragon's tendon.
In addition, there was a black mark below his right eye.
Jin Xiangyin sized him up and nodded approvingly. "Your talent is not bad. You even inherited the redbud bow. However, don't use the Demon God's Mark if you can. Otherwise, you will lose too much of your lifespan. "
"I will remember," Lu Bai Chuan said gratefully. He then asked, "May I ask if there is a place for enlightenment?"
"So fast?" Jin Xiangyin was surprised. "Follow me."
…
They used seven days and nights to walk out of the desert plains.
The Swallow Mountain Bandits split up here, each going their own way.
Yan Li brought Fu 'er to the city outside the desert plains. He bought the Book of Heavenly Secrets for the past half month, then went to the tavern and chose a table in the corner.
The waiter came over and served them tea while asking, "What would you like, sir?"
Yan Li ordered. "A pot of wine, soaked in the well. Two catties of beef, stir-fried lettuce and bacon, and a few dishes to go with the wine."
"Very well." The waiter left.
Yan Li took out the Book of Heavenly Secrets. Fu 'er held a pair of chopsticks in each hand, waiting expectantly.
Soon, the dishes were served. The waiter even thoughtfully brought two large bowls.
Fu 'er ate with the rice.
Yan Li only slowly drank his wine and looked at the situation. Recently, everyone was talking about Li Ku. One of them was: Ghost Inn appeared fifty li outside of Huayang City, and Li Ku nailed Ghost Yama who had been famous for more than ten years with a single chopstick. He had heard this from Jin Xiangyin.
The interesting thing about the Book of Heavenly Secrets was that there would be detailed information about Yama Ghost at the end of the news. A dead person had no value, so his information would naturally be printed for free reading.
Yama Ghost was the leader of Ghost Garden. Ghost Garden was a killing organization. Their way of taking jobs was very unique. They specialized in killing wanted criminals with high bounties. The biggest advantage was that they didn't have to deal with the Dragon Emperor Mansion, and the bounty wasn't lower than private ones. So rather than saying they were assassins, they were more like bounty hunters.
Even though they were criticized by their peers, there was no need to doubt their strength. Ghost Garden had one hundred and thirty-seven assassins, and every one of them made people tremble with fear. However, they died under Li Ku's chopsticks.
Then there was another one. 'The Lulin Tribe came out in full force, launching wave after wave of death attacks against Li Ku. Seven Thirteen Chain Fortress Masters died in battle … 'Then there was a list of names, followed by their achievements and cultivation.
Lulin Tribe?
He was puzzled. Weren't those the subordinates of Huang Shaoyu's father? Why did the Lion King get involved?
Moreover, there was only one message, which was quite ironic. These days, even bandits were colluding with the court. Obviously, the so-called bandits could become one of the Dragon Emperor Dynasty's people at any time.
He had read several documents, and they were all about the same. Li Ku was already ten miles away from Huayang City, but he was stopped by the Lulin Tribe, Guards of Long Qing, and Xuandang Sect of Sacrifice. The document said that he wasn't in a hurry, so he was training his troops in a tea stall.
He was puzzled by the way the policy was written, but after thinking about it for a moment, he went over it. As he continued to read, he suddenly found another one. 'The Sword God Feng Jiu appears in Huayang City!'
There were only a few words, and no other subjective guesses. This was because the Heavenly Measures Tower had a strict rule that unverified statements were not allowed, or the person who made it up would be severely punished.
If these words were embellished, it might become that the Court Of Sword was going to intervene against Li Ku, and the meaning would be completely changed.
"It's you." Yan Li smiled.
"Who?" Fu 'er asked confusedly.
"Eldest Senior Brother Feng Jiu." Yan Li closed the document. "This time, I have to be thick-skinned and ask him for help. I hope he won't refuse. Eat quickly, and then we will go to Huayang City. "
"Is there anything delicious there?"
"I think … there should be."
The two catties of braised beef on the table had disappeared. Yan Li looked at Fu 'er's belly, but it wasn't swollen.
…
Outside Huayang City, the flat and spacious official road had long become the tents of the garrison. The road to Huayang City was blocked.
There was a tea stall ten miles away, and it had become a battlefield. They attacked at sunrise and retreated at sunset.
It was said to be an attack, but Li Ku didn't do anything. It was the little Daoist boy who did the fighting, and he only guided from the side.
She was so small, but with Li Ku's guidance, she blocked wave after wave of attacks.
There was already a rumor in the army that when Li Ku lost interest in 'training' his troops, he would start a massacre, and they would all die. However, Protector Long Qing's army was very disciplined, and they didn't show much emotion, so they could still control themselves. The Xuandang soldiers were even more fearless after being trained by Ji Changrui to face death calmly. Only the Jianghu heroes, who were attracted by the large amount of benefits promised by the Jing King Palace, and the Lulin people who wanted to repay the kindness, all began to retreat.
The Jianghu heroes were free to come and go, and nothing could restrict them. When the Ghost Garden was completely wiped out, they already had the intention to retreat. Once the rumor spread, they naturally made excuses and left.
Only the Lulin people were left.
In the tent, the Lion King sat at the head of the table with a gloomy expression.
Military Advisor Xu Jihua, Great Master of the Thirteen Dock Chains Wei WuXian, Great Master of the Yellow Tang Mountain Seventy-Two Caves Wan Zhuoliu, and a group of top ranked backbones sat in a circle, looking at the Lion King. The atmosphere was a bit stiff.
"In the past few days, our Multiple Chain Chains Dock has suffered the heaviest losses," Wei WuXian said with an unfriendly expression, "Long Qing and Xuandang have lost less than a dozen people, yet the Lulin people have to lead the charge every time. Why?"
Wan Zhuoliu said coldly, "In my opinion, Jing King doesn't even see us as brothers. I'm afraid he's already planned to use us as cannon fodder!"
"Shut up, Third Brother! Don't talk nonsense!" Huang Batian said in a low voice.
Wei WuXian, "Boss, the truth is right in front of us. What else is there to say?"
Huang Batian's gaze slowly changed, as if he was the king of the jungle ready to pounce on his prey. The temperature in the air dropped to freezing point.
Everyone was as quiet as cicadas in winter.
Military Advisor Xu Jihua coughed softly, breaking the silence, "Boss, no matter the nature of this matter, the brothers actually want to know your plan."
Huang Batian, "Back then, Jing King spared my life, which is equivalent to saving me once. Without him, there wouldn't be me, and without me, there wouldn't be today's Lulin people. "
His gaze swept across the people around him, "Listen up, all of you. As long as Jing King is still alive, we won't hesitate even if we have to fight to the last man!"
Second Brother Wei WuXian, Third Brother Wan Zhuoliu, Fourth Brother Xu Jihua. The few of them were sworn brothers and had long since become as close as brothers. Since the Lion King had spoken, they didn't dare to say anything else.
They were even more impressed by his loyalty and loyalty. Wasn't that the reason why they worshipped him as their boss back then? Since they made the choice, they had to bear the consequences together.
