Only after Huang Batian heard about this plan did he feel a bit of hope.
During these past few days, the Greenwood Tribe had made countless sacrifices, studying the little daoist child's cultivation, moves, and Law Domain, formulating a strict plan to capture her alive. Only by capturing the little daoist child could they force Li Ku out of Huayang City.
The key to the plan was that Ban Zhao could stall Li Ku.
Today was the day of execution. Just like in the past, they ordered the army to fight the little daoist child. Ban Zhao appeared at the tea stall, using the identity of a past teacher to reminisce and drink. Who would have expected Li Ku to actually prepare to enter the city? This was a huge miscalculation.
In a moment of desperation, Ban Zhao appeared ahead of time, still able to stall Li Ku.
Only when Li Ku returned to the tea stall did it give them a bit of confidence, continuing their charge.
Several Greenwood Tribe elites took the lead, surrounding the little daoist child. All types of weapons were sent out, but they were all blocked somehow. If they were just a bit slower, they would have died a violent death.
The little daoist child would only retaliate once. If he didn't die, he would continue attacking, and only then would she retaliate again.
These elites, after receiving this order, didn't continue, instead withdrawing, switching to the next wave.
The next wave was hidden weapons. The giant axe in the little daoist child's hands was blocked for some reason, all of them falling to the ground. Two elites retreated a bit slower, discovering the intense pain. They couldn't help but cry out in fear, "Hand! My hand! "
The next wave was the charge of Long Qing's cavalry, smashing over like an arrow.
The little daoist child didn't seem to immediately understand whether this cavalry charge counted as a move, whether it was dodging and not doing anything, or whether it was counterattacking after dodging. She didn't immediately react.
"Earth Fiend Art!"
The great earth beneath her feet suddenly became spiritual, becoming as soft as a sponge, continuously caving in. She felt as if her feet were bound by something, her body unable to budge.
It was tough for Huang Batian to use such a fierce technique to trap people. It was also because his cultivation was profound, or else if it was anyone else, they would either be smashed into pieces by the little daoist child, or the little daoist child would be smashed into pieces. There was no third possibility.
The little daoist child was just about to retaliate when she felt a figure approach. Her pulse was clamped down by a slender and pretty hand, and then she couldn't use any of her cultivation.
"Little girl, as long as you follow me obediently, I promise I won't hurt you. How about it?"
The shadow was none other than Hua Feihua. The method he used to detain the little Daoist boy was his unique skill – Purse Clasp.
He used to be a pickpocket. Because he studied this skill to the peak, he discovered the trick to catching pickpockets. Later, he was recognized by Ban Zhao and accepted into Great Corner Academy. From then on, he climbed up to the position of Super Arrester. The purse buckle was something he had gradually deduced from the tricks of pickpocketing. It was specifically used to capture a cultivator's meridians. The captured person would not be able to use the slightest bit of their cultivation base, and would not even have the strength to move.
At this moment, the little Daoist boy felt his entire body go soft, as though he was stepping on a sponge.
Huang Batian surfaced from the ground and said apologetically, "Young lady, I'm really sorry for using such a despicable method to deal with you. I really don't want to see King Jing die in the hands of your master." As he said that, he flicked out a powdery substance.
When the white powder entered the little Daoist child's nose, she fainted. He personally walked over, picked it up, and quickly walked back.
Hua Feihua followed at the side and teased, "Old Huang, are you really thinking for King Jing's sake? Actually, you're more concerned about your subordinates. You've suffered quite a loss this time. When the Lulin people collect tolls in Jiangbei in the future, they might not have the confidence to do so. Don't be replaced by Golden Scorpion. "
Huang Batian was about to retort when he suddenly felt the tea stall behind him explode. The shockwaves made his scalp go numb. He clenched his teeth and ran while shouting at his dumbfounded subordinates, "Idiots, why aren't you going back?!"
Inside the tea stall, the tobacco pipe was pressed against the flute, suppressing Li Ku's killing intent.
"Sir, there is a price to pay for making a choice."
His killing intent was suppressed, but it was actually Li Ku's own will. After he finished speaking in a profound manner, a powerful qi field expanded from his body. It was invisible to the naked eye, but it instantly became incomparably large.
Ban Zhao's hand that was holding the tobacco pipe began to tremble, his face pale. "You're already a True Sovereign?"
What responded to him was an immeasurable amount of ferocious qi. In an instant, the entire tea stall was crushed. The tobacco pipe was completely pulverized. His body flew backward like a meteor, smashing deep into a small hill by the side of the road. He vomited blood continuously. The desire in his eyes subsided at this moment.
The salty blood also tasted extremely bitter at this moment. He repeated unwillingly, "You're already a True Sovereign?"
"I'm not." After Li Ku finished speaking, his body did not move. The huge qi field swept across the void and stopped in front of Huang Batian and the others. Then, his entire body appeared in front of Huang Batian.
Hua Feihua saw that the situation was not good. She screamed and ran to the side first.
Huang Batian's pupils shrank, and his heart almost stopped beating. He opened his mouth to speak, but the entire space seemed to have become a ruler. A ray of sword light shot out and pierced through his chest. He subconsciously looked down and found that his heart had been completely destroyed. He could not help but feel bitter at the corner of his mouth. His huge body crashed to the ground, stirring up a lot of smoke and dust.
The sword light did not stop, but continued towards Hua Feihua.
"Senior helped me perfect the pouch back then, this junior is extremely grateful. I can die in peace!" Hua Feihua screamed in fear, using a precious artifact to turn around and block. The sword light still disappeared in the end. He miraculously survived, falling into a pile of earth and coughing non-stop.
"Boss is dead!"
The people of the Green Forest Army on the side cried out in grief, some of them even cursing through clenched teeth, "Li Ku, you turtle grandson, this old one is going to stake it all against you today!" Then, they fiercely rushed up, silently cut in half.
Li Ku picked up the little Daoist child and carried him on his shoulder. Then, he expressionlessly headed towards Huayang City. All those who came to stop him died a violent death. Wherever he went, corpses piled up like mountains.
No one could stop Li Ku's footsteps. The experts of the Greenwood Tribe, the cavalry of Long Qing's Protector Army, and the heavy armor of the Xuandang Death Squad were all killed along the way, forcing the army to continuously retreat.
Someone had already spread the news of the failure of the operation to Huayang City.
The commanders of Long Qing's Protector Army and the Xuandang Death Squad each ordered their troops to retreat. They set up a formation five miles away from Huayang City. The army formed a long line and occupied the entire main road, as if they were going to use their flesh and blood to forge an impenetrable wall.
In the Jing King's Palace, Ji Changrui heard about this and asked the second prince, Ji Yulang, coldly, "Is that Su Xiaojian still not willing to make a move?"
Ji Yulang said hatefully, "He said that he has not finished recuperating the Sword Realm, and that he will only make a move after hearing the exact truth from Li Ku's mouth."
"Pedantic! Stubborn! " Ji Changrui scolded. "Bastard, his father is still a court official. Just because he joined the Court Of Sword, he thinks of himself as an otherworldly master!"
Realizing that they had lost control of themselves, and that their three children were right in front of them, they all began to feel uneasy.
