Yan Li said, "You knew I would come?"
"Of course I knew." Liu Ying's eyes were like silk as she lifted her long legs. Perhaps it was because she often ran the hunting grounds, but although her legs were not very white, they were very tight, the kind that could snap a man's waist. Especially since she only had a gown on, which was completely bare inside, so when she lifted her legs, they were naturally exposed.
The incense in the corner of the room, the hibiscus warm curtains, and the dim lamplight raised the mood infinitely, displaying this woman's charm to the fullest. If a virgin was here, being seduced by her like this, he would have long since turned into a beast and pounced on her.
Yan Li was a healthy man, so he definitely felt something, but he was very picky and could still resist, saying, "Then you also know what I came here for?"
"Young Master Yan wants to prove your innocence," Liu Ying smiled confidently.
A confident woman would also have a unique charm.
Yan Li said coldly, "What is innocence?"
Liu Ying's smile froze, saying, "Could it be that Young Master Yan doesn't want to capture me to confront the Princess?"
"In that case, you admit that the informant was you." Yan Li's eyes revealed a hint of killing intent.
Liu Ying was already panicking, saying, "Young Master Yan, we can prove your innocence, as long as you …"
"As long as you agree to one condition."
A bald man crossed his arms, his feet hooked onto the roof, and stood upside down outside the window, staring at Yan Li calmly, "A condition that is beneficial to both of us."
As soon as he finished speaking, over ten black-clothed people came out from their hiding places, each displaying their lightness skills, shouting as they surrounded the loft.
Judging from their voices, there were at least two first grade martial artists among these people.
"Oh?" Yan Li said, "What condition?"
The bald man was naturally the Deputy Pavilion Lord of the Heavenly Eagle Pavilion, Liu Guangsheng. He nimbly jumped down from the roof and sat down leisurely, pulling Liu Ying into his arms, playing with the soft flesh on her chest, saying, "Come with me to see the Princess."
Liu Ying was used to being bold and open, but she had never been played by another man in front of another man, and this man was even the one she liked. She felt a strong sense of humiliation in her heart, but her body was very honest.
Yan Li didn't even look at her and said, "Who are you?"
"Heavenly Eagle Pavilion's Liu Guangsheng," Liu Guangsheng replied.
Yan Li said, "What can I get?"
Liu Guangsheng smiled and said, "We have a scapegoat candidate. He was the one who told the princess about this. I believe you already know who he is."
"Li San," Yan Li said.
Liu Guangsheng smiled and said, "That's right. I will be responsible for finding the other three people to help you testify that everything Li San said was a lie. At that time, not only will you be able to prove your innocence, I can also recommend you to become the princess' aide. You will enjoy endless benefits."
Yan Li also smiled. "You may be mistaken about one thing."
"What is it?" Liu Guangsheng asked.
Yan Li said, "The one who lied was not Li San."
Liu Guangsheng paused for a moment, then continued to play with it. "Sometimes the truth can be slightly changed. You should know the princess' authority in River Flower City. If she says you are a pervert, then you are a pervert. If she says you are innocent, then you are innocent. "
"Innocent?" Yan Li smiled evilly. "I don't need it."
Liu Guangsheng finally stopped and stared coldly at Yan Li. "Friend, I have to say, you have made a very unwise choice."
Yan Li said, "One last question: Are your actions based on yourself or Heavenly Eagle Pavilion?"
Liu Guangsheng said coldly, "What is the difference?"
Yan Li smiled and said, "The survival of Heavenly Eagle Pavilion depends on your answer."
"What a big tone!" Liu Guangsheng was furious. "Kill him for me!"
"Swish, swish —"
The sound of several sharp weapons piercing through the air rang out. Three sharp arrows pierced through the roof, heading straight for Yan Li's vitals.
Yan Li took half a step back, and two of the sharp arrows missed. He pinched the remaining one between his fingers, and with a light flick, the sharp arrow pierced into the heart of the black-clothed man who had rushed out of the stairwell.
Before that man died, he let out a miserable scream and tumbled down the stairwell.
Before he could roll to the bottom, another black-clothed man rushed out of the stairwell. He was very fast, and when he reached in front of Yan Li, he leapt up and chopped down with all his strength with the podao in his hand. The body of the podao was filled with not weak Origin Qi, and it even created an arc of light in the air.
Yan Li only took a step forward, and with a push of his palm, that person flew into the air and collided with a black-clothed man who had crashed through the roof. Then, he fell with a miserable scream, his head bleeding.
"Little thief, don't be so arrogant!"
Another person broke through the roof. It was a yellow-clothed man. He struck out with his palm in the air, and from the center of his palm came a very granular icy mist. This palm had clearly been brewing for a long time, and the surrounding air had also become incomparably cold.
This was one of the two first grade martial artists.
For a first grade martial artist, there were nine elemental energy tides in the sea of origin. Under a strong driving force, the Origin Qi could leave the body. This palm was obviously a consummate skill, and it was the first time that Yan Li had seen a consummate skill from an unaffiliated person.
Yan Li pulled out the Leaving Cliff Sword, pointed it forward, and executed the second style of the Green Lotus. The sword hummed lightly, pushing his body backwards. At the same time, he raised the sword and slashed the neck of the third black-clothed man who had rushed out of the stairwell at an extremely high speed. His head and blood flew into the air.
The yellow-clothed man's palm missed, but he did not retract it, and directly hit the floor of the attic.
When the icy mist touched the floor, it immediately spread in all directions. Very soon, the entire attic's floor was covered with a thin layer of ice.
Yan Li's feet trembled, and the thin layer of ice shattered. He also stopped.
The yellow-clothed man sneered. Not only did he not retract his hand that had touched the floor, but he also increased the output of his Origin Qi.
The thin layer of ice under Yan Li's feet that had been shaken off was immediately affected by a wave of Qi activity, and condensed again. This time, it directly froze everything below Yan Li's ankles.
He struggled twice, but to no avail. Suddenly, he felt a cold piercing pain on his neck, and a faintly discernible shadow appeared at this moment.
It was a man dressed in dark grey clothes, and he held a strangely shaped dagger in his hand. He was already three feet away from Yan Li.
Yan Li smiled coldly, and the Leaving Cliff Sword returned to its sheath and stood upright in front of him.
That person obviously did not expect Yan Li's reaction to be so sharp. At this moment, he could no longer retract his hand, and the dagger stabbed into the Leaving Cliff Sword. He only felt that all his strength had hit cotton, and there was no vibration at all.
Before he could react, Yan Li had already pulled out his sword at lightning speed.
A cold sword light flashed like a bolt of lightning.
That person's body seemed to be struck by a heavy hammer, and he involuntarily flew back. His mouth was foaming with blood, and he said in disbelief, "Hide … Sword … Formula …" Before he could speak, he collided with the yellow-clothed man behind him.
Yan Li swung his sword backwards, and the sword hummed lightly. He turned into a shadow.
Pew!
In the next moment, the Leaving Cliff Sword pierced through the heads of the two people. Even in death, the yellow-clothed man did not understand how the other had broken free.
Yan Li slowly pulled out the Leaving Cliff Sword from the corpses, and scanned the surroundings.
Two first grade martial artists had died in an instant, and the remaining ten or so minions all stopped, their faces filled with fear.
