"Who is it!"
No matter how good-tempered a man was, he wouldn't be too happy to be disturbed during that kind of activity.
The sound of clothes being put on came from the room, and then the oil lamp was extinguished. The door was slightly opened, and Feng Kaishan peeked through the gap. He said angrily, "So it's you. Are you alright? What are you doing in the middle of the night? "
When he opened the door, he used his body to block the gap, obviously not wanting others to see what they shouldn't see.
Xu Yingjun chuckled, "Elder Feng, it's unexpected to have a mistress in your house."
Feng Kaishan was slightly proud, "When I was young, I devoted myself to cultivation and didn't get close to beauties. If I don't have fun for a few years, I'll have wasted my life."
"Of course," Xu Yingjun said.
"And this is?" Feng Kaishan finally noticed Yan Li. At first, he thought it was a cultivator that Xu Yingjun introduced to him. It was common for headhunters to recommend each other, but it didn't seem like it. If he stood slightly to the left, he would have noticed Xu Yingjun's sword.
"You can leave now," Yan Li said.
Xu Yingjun glanced behind him, then at Feng Kaishan, and smiled bitterly, "Elder Feng, I may have brought trouble to you."
"What do you mean?" Feng Kaishan was startled.
"Elder Feng, if there's danger, please call for help. I won't go far." Xu Yingjun walked out after he finished speaking. When he passed by Yan Li, he gave him a warning look, "If there's a situation, I'll immediately come to help. It'll be two against one. Sir, please think carefully."
When he finished, he walked to the door and didn't leave.
Yan Li sneered in his heart, and didn't care about him.
Feng Kaishan was simply baffled. "Who are you, Sire?" he asked Yan Li, "The Little Old Man has always been a kind person, I have never offended anybody. What business do you have with the Old Man?"
He was already on guard, but that exceptionally dazzling sword was still silently pressed against his throat. Before this, he didn't feel it at all. He knew that the other party was extremely powerful, so he forced himself to remain calm, "Sir, what do you mean?"
Yan Li said, "Let's go in first."
"Enter? Enter where?" Feng Kaishan was bewildered.
"Cut the crap!" Yan Li kicked Feng Kaishan, causing him to stagger.
Xu Yingjun's eyes flashed, but he didn't move.
Feng Kaishan felt embarrassed and said angrily, "I have no enmity with you …"
"Do you want to die?" Yan Li said coldly.
Feeling the pressure, Feng Kaishan gritted his teeth, slowly got up, and pushed open the door of the master bedroom.
Yan Li forced him in and closed the door behind him.
"Light the lamp."
Feng Kaishan knew that he had no choice, so he went to light the oil lamp.
"Ah!" The woman curled up on the bed screamed, "Feng Kaishan, why did you bring another man in!"
"Shut up!" Feng Kaishan cursed the pig-headed woman.
Yan Li glanced over and saw that it was a beautiful woman in her late twenties. Her whole body was wrapped in the autumn fragrant python quilt, and only her delicate head was exposed. There was a terrified expression on her face.
"Elder Feng, you recognize me, right?"
Yan Li returned to his original voice.
"You are …" Hearing this voice, Feng Kaishan's pupils shrank, and he almost exclaimed.
"What do you think?" Yan Li said.
Feng Kaishan's face was pale, and cold sweat instantly drenched his back. He thought for a moment, then suddenly walked towards the beautiful woman and knocked her out with a palm strike.
Yan Li was slightly surprised, then slowly took off his bamboo hat, and said with a faint smile, "Elder Feng is really protective of the fairer sex."
Feng Kaishan turned around and forced a smile, "After all, she spent a lot of money on me."
"With your qualifications, you can find a younger one." Yan Li smiled.
Feng Kaishan said, "The young don't know how to enjoy themselves. I'm already old, and I don't have the energy to teach from the beginning."
Yan Li said, "Elder Feng is a person who knows when to give up."
Feng Kaishan forced a smile, "If not, how could I live until now?"
"Then it's easy. You know about it?" Yan Li said.
Feng Kaishan said, "I found out about your arrest warrant the day before yesterday."
Yan Li said, "And then?"
Feng Kaishan said, "I didn't know what was going on at that time."
"You obviously know now," Yan Li said.
Feng Kaishan said, "Today, the Dragon Emperor's Residence is searching for me. Only then did I know it was the Princess's order."
Yan Li said, "Someone harbors hatred against me."
Feng Kaishan said, "It's not me."
Yan Li said, "Then who do you think it is?"
Feng Kaishan said, "After you left that day, Liu Ying urged the three of us to continue scheming, but I refused."
Yan Li said, "You think it's Liu Ying?"
Feng Kaishan shook his head, "I have no proof."
Yan Li's eyes were deep. He stared at him for a moment, then finally confirmed that he was not lying. A person who had survived through storms, a person who only wanted to enjoy his old age, would not do such a stupid thing.
"Take me to Liu Ying," he said.
"You won't …" Feng Kaishan said hesitantly.
Yan Li said, "You're worried that I'll kill you?"
"You're a wanted criminal now," Feng Kaishan said.
Yan Li thought for a moment, then said, "I think no guarantee is more effective than action."
"What do you mean?" Feng Kaishan said.
"I can save your life first," Yan Li said.
"Save me?" Feng Kaishan was confused.
Yan Li said, "You know the guy outside the door?"
Feng Kaishan said, "I do. I'm the one who vouched for his headhunting qualification. He has always respected me."
Yan Li smiled, "Is that so?"
"Is there something wrong with him?" Feng Kaishan asked.
Yan Li said, "You'll know what's wrong with him later."
Then, he put on his bamboo hat again and turned to open the door.
"You're leaving just like that?" Feng Kaishan was stunned.
Yan Li waved his hand and walked out. He stopped at the door and glanced at Xu Yingjun, "The misunderstanding has been cleared. I didn't kill him."
Xu Yingjun was stunned, then forced a smile, "That's good. You can go now. I'll go check on my teacher's safety."
Yan Li smiled inexplicably, then turned to leave.
Xu Yingjun watched as Yan Li turned the corner, then walked in and called out, "Elder Feng?"
"He's here!" Feng Kaishan walked out, "Don't you know you scared me to death? You actually brought him here!"
Xu Yingjun smiled bitterly, "The situation forced me, I'm really sorry."
His eyes flickered as he asked, "Elder Feng, who is that person? You look very scared."
"I advise you not to ask." Feng Kaishan frowned, "Alright, it's so late, I don't have any tea for you."
"Actually, I have something to discuss with you," Xu Yingjun said.
"What is it?" Feng Kaishan asked.
"Be careful, the walls have ears. Come closer." Xu Yingjun looked left and right, a mysterious look on his face.
Feng Kaishan had no choice but to approach him.
Xu Yingjun's not-so-handsome face suddenly twisted. He took out a dagger out of nowhere and stabbed it towards Feng Kaishan's chest.
By the time Feng Kaishan reacted, it was already too late. He could only desperately gather his ki, hoping to block this strike.
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly leapt up from the wall to his left, drawing his sword and slashing.
A streak of sword qi pierced through the air, knocking away the dagger in Xu Yingjun's hand with a bang.
"Bastard, I've nurtured you with all my heart, yet you want to take my life!"
Feng Kaishan was furious. At this moment, he gathered all the ki in his right hand, using his hand as a blade, piercing through Xu Yingjun's heart.
Xu Yingjun never expected this ending. He opened his mouth, only to spit out blood.
Feng Kaishan coldly retracted his hand and kicked Xu Yingjun's corpse onto the doorstep.
Yan Li jumped down from the wall, smiling, "Do you believe me now, Elder Feng?"
Feng Kaishan shook off the blood on his arm and smiled bitterly, "I'm convinced. Since I picked up this life, it's worth the risk. "
After taking care of Xu Yingjun's corpse, Feng Kaishan couldn't help but ask, "How did you know that bastard wanted to kill me?"
Yan Li, "Killing is for fame and fortune."
"How did you know he had this motive?" Feng Kaishan asked.
Yan Li, "If he really respected you, he wouldn't have brought me here even if he had to die. If he really respected you, he wouldn't not know your hobbies."
Feng Kaishan, "You let him go here, but he didn't leave or save me. It's obvious that he has an ulterior motive."
Yan Li, "If you die in my hands, everyone will be happy. He can take over all your resources."
Feng Kaishan completely understood, "Even if I didn't die, he would kill me and frame you."
Now, he was completely convinced. Compared to using strength to suppress others, there weren't many people who could convince others.
Liu Ying's house wasn't far from Feng Kaishan's house. It was in a neighborhood near Liuguan Street. Women liked to shop, so it was convenient to go out whenever they wanted.
"Go to the third house in the alley ahead," Feng Kaishan brought Yan Li to the corner of an alley and pointed at the deep alley ahead.
Yan Li smelled a faint stench.
Feng Kaishan, "Elder, this is as far as I can take you."
Yan Li, "Leave, I believe you have no reason to protect Liu Ying with your life."
Feng Kaishan, "Don't worry, elder. I won't tell anyone about what happened tonight." He bowed and disappeared into the darkness.
Yan Li concealed his breath and walked over, only to find that there was a stinky ditch in front of the house.
To put it nicely, it was a neighborhood, but to put it bluntly, it was a slum.
It seemed that not many cultivators could afford a big house.
The third house was a small duplex. Compared to the stone houses on both sides, it was of a higher style. Unfortunately, it seemed to be in disrepair and had collapsed at some point.
Yan Li pushed the door open. The first floor seemed to be a kitchen and a dining room.
It was very dark, and there was no sound of people. It seemed that no one was there.
Yan Li walked up the stairs. As soon as he stepped into the attic, a lamp was lit, illuminating the attic.
Yan Li turned around and saw Liu Ying lying on the bed near the window. She was wearing a thin gown, revealing her great figure.
