Ji Hyun-woon was a clear-minded person. Perhaps she had other reasons for temporarily giving up on revenge, but no matter what, her duty as a king was above her vengeance. Of course, her departure did not break the formation of the 'alliance'.
Yu Qiuyu had just lost her true love, there was no way she would give up on revenge, while Huang Shaoyu definitely wouldn't ignore Yu Qiuyu. However, neither of them were fools. After deeply experiencing Li Ku's terrifying strength, they knew that in order to deal with Li Ku, they had to think of a flawless plan.
Huang Shaoyu's eyes flashed, and he said, "Young Wei Wang's words have a hidden meaning. He said that Senior should be prepared, so what method does Senior have to kill Li Ku?"
The Crouching Dragon Lord smiled, "This is not the place to talk. The hall in front has prepared food and wine. Please come to the table and discuss."
Everyone moved to another place to talk. The old servant behind the Crouching Dragon Lord pushed him to the head of the table. He waved his hand, "Have some first, we can talk when you're full."
The two did not stand on ceremony and enjoyed to their heart's content. Their lives were saved by others anyway, so even if they were used, there was nothing to say, let alone worry about the food and wine being poisoned.
Yu Qiuyu did not eat much and drank a lot of wine. The burning sensation spread throughout his body, and the pain surged like a tide, becoming more and more difficult to suppress. "What should we do?"
"Yu Jianzi is still the same, an impatient person." The Crouching Dragon Lord sighed, "But I did not expect the orange-clothed lady to have such a calamity in her life. I owed her a wish, but I could not fulfill it until my death. What fate!" After sighing, his expression turned serious, "Li Ku is not an ordinary person. His cultivation has reached the Connecting Heaven realm. If he can combine all his knowledge with Concealment of Intent, he may very well cross the Divine Domain and enter the Picking Star realm."
Huang Shaoyu was chewing on a large bone when he heard this. Only now did he realize what kind of existence they had provoked. He immediately lost the mood to eat and said, "Then what are we worrying about? Let's just go our separate ways. In my opinion, there is no one in the entire Dragon Emperor's court who can fight against him."
The Hidden Dragon Lord said with a smile, "There is no one in this world that cannot be dealt with. Even though Li Ku is strong, he still has weaknesses."
"What weakness?" Huang Shaoyu hurriedly asked. Yu Qiuyu also pricked up his ears.
Hidden Dragon Manor Lord said, "Everything Li Ku learned was the result of his own bitter study. The reason why his strength was so great, apart from his outstanding talent in the way of fighting and killing, there was also the 'Hidden within Meaning' passed down from the fifteen countries. It wasn't an extreme art, but it was even more so. Both of you should know the principle of 'Concealment of Will'. Brewing the Power of Will, forming
Strike. The greatest inconvenience of this Dao is that the Power of Will has to be 'received' before it can be brewed. In other words, he needs to be attacked first before he can counterattack. He can't brew Power of Will out of thin air. "
Huang Shaoyu knew about the "hidden meaning", but he didn't know the principle behind it. He was confused and looked at Yu Qiuyu. Yu Qiuyu said, "Yan Li mentioned it before. You can understand it as anger, humiliation …"
Realization dawned on Huang Shaoyu as he recalled that Yan Li had once taught himself to use it in the Flying Roc Fort. At that time, he had used his true cultivation to forcefully kill Dongguan, causing a huge sensation in the Jianghu. The principle of this Dao was to turn the humiliation and oppression into power. At that time, Yan Li brewed it for several days. Thinking about it carefully, whenever Li Ku counterattacked, there was indeed a feeling of brewing something. However, that feeling was fleeting. In other words, Li Ku brewed a terrifying killing move in an instant. Just thinking about it made him feel a lingering fear.
"Could it be that when dealing with Li Ku, he can't sense any malice?" He couldn't help but ask.
The Crouching Dragon Lord said with a smile, "If it is only hidden meaning, then it is not a bad idea."
"What else?" Huang Shaoyu was stunned.
Zi 'er said charmingly, "How stupid. You even fought him head-on. Didn't you notice anything strange?"
Huang Shaoyu cursed the little girl in his mind. Even though he was unwilling to accept it, he still thought about it and gradually remembered something. At that time, the three of them worked together and clearly inflicted a fatal wound on Li Ku, but in the blink of an eye, the latter recovered as if nothing had happened. Now that he thought about it, this matter was indescribably strange.
"The Ten Bitter Eternal Calamity Realm!" Yu Qiuyu suddenly said coldly.
The Crouching Dragon Lord nodded in praise. "That's right. The most difficult thing isn't 'hidden meaning', but the Ten Bitter Eternal Calamity Realm that is infinitely close to the Dao Realm. This realm includes Li Ku's understanding of the ten kinds of pain in the world. All these years, he hid his identity and cultivation and swindled people in the martial world, suffering all kinds of pain. Even when he was beaten and his life was threatened, he never fought back. Finally, he reached the Deity Realm, which is why I said he is not an ordinary person. "
Huang Shaoyu sighed. In his heart, he admitted that Li Ku was indeed an extraordinary person. If it was him, he might not have been able to endure the pain.
The Crouching Dragon Lord continued, "After reaching the Deity Realm, the pain in the world can no longer be inflicted on him."
Huang Shaoyu said, "So if we want to kill him, we have to break his Deity Realm first?"
"That's right."
"Doesn't that mean we have no chance? Only Deity Realm experts can break his Deity Realm.
In my opinion, unless someone like Guan Shanhai or Li Banshan comes out, no one can break his Deity Realm. "
Zi 'er sneered. "There's no need for those few. We can break it ourselves."
"You?" Huang Shaoyu was shocked.
The Crouching Dragon Lord stroked his beard and smiled. "My three disciples have cultivated a divine ability since young. When they work together, they can suppress all Deity Realm experts in the world. Although it's very short, it's enough for the two of you to deal a fatal blow to Li Ku."
There was no change in Yu Qiuyu's expression, but his eyes were burning. "When do we make our move?"
"Wait," Huang Shaoyu suddenly stared at the Crouching Dragon Lord. "There's one thing that I hope Senior can tell us."
"Go ahead," the Crouching Dragon Lord said with a smile.
Huang Shaoyu said, "I don't believe what your three disciples said. Why do you insist on killing Li Ku? Qiuyu and I were saved thanks to your manor. I shouldn't have asked so many questions, but I'm just like that. I don't like to be used for no reason. Even though we have the same goal, I still want to know the truth. "
The Crouching Dragon Lord was silent for a long time. Then, he looked at his three disciples with a pained expression. "You may not know this, but my three disciples were conjoined at birth …"
It turned out that the three golden flowers also had a painful past. Their bodies were conjoined at birth, and they were treated as monsters by their biological parents and ignorant villagers. They were almost burned alive. After the Crouching Dragon Lord saved them, he felt their pain and inconvenience, so he used a secret art to separate them. However, there was a problem with this separation. As the three souls were forcibly torn apart, although their bodies were restored by the secret art, their souls were damaged. The Crouching Dragon Lord soon realized that the three sisters could live if they were united, but they would die if they were separated. Their damaged souls would dry up before they reached eighteen years of age, and there was only one outcome for them — disintegration. He couldn't accept this result, so he asked around and learned about the wonders of the Ten Sufferings of Eternal Calamity. Coincidentally, Li Ku came to him, so he went with the flow and had the three sisters acknowledge him as their master, hoping to find a way to save them from his divine realm. Unexpectedly, Li Ku seemed to know that they had ulterior motives, so he only taught them some unorthodox methods. Seeing that time was running out, the Crouching Dragon Lord decided to use a secret art to steal Li Ku's divine realm to treat the three sisters.
Although Huang Shaoyu still had some doubts after hearing this, he knew that the other party had already expressed enough sincerity. If he continued to ask, it would be ungrateful. Moreover, their goal was only to kill Li Ku. As for what would happen after his death, they didn't care at all.
Thus, they quickly came to an agreement and went to rest, waiting for an opportunity.
PS: The original plan was to only resume updating before the first month. Now, everyone can just treat it as an occasional corpse coming back to life.
