Yan Li sheathed his sword without hesitation and blocked the attack horizontally.
The Hidden Sword Formula was also activated in that instant. Countless Red Spider Lilies slammed onto the sword like a raging wave.
His right foot abruptly kicked backwards. The passageway was only made of wood, so it couldn't bear the weight and broke apart with a creaking sound. Just as one of his feet was about to sink into the water, the disciples of the Lotus Sect all pounced forward. The situation was extremely bad.
"Hidden Sword …"
He did not need to shout out the name of this move to aid in the condensation of force, but he purposely shouted it out.
As expected, Gu Caiwei's face changed. "Everyone retreat!"
The corners of Yan Li's mouth curled up. Leaving Cliff was unsheathed. The dark black sword light that was imbued with external force seemed especially deep and heavy under the moonlight. It was as if what was slashed out was not a sword light, but a wave.
"When did the Hidden Sword Formula become so powerful?" The disciples of the Lotus Sect paled. They retreated as fast as they rushed over.
The dark black sword light formed a crescent arc. The waterside pavilion was instantly turned into nothingness, greatly suppressing the sea of Red Spider Lilies. The entire manor was trembling under the sword light.
Yan Li took the opportunity to push off with his left foot and leaped backwards. He jumped out of the lotus pond and with another tap, disappeared into the boundless night.
"Weiwei, are you alright?" Du Ziqi was the first to rush back. She looked up and down at Gu Caiwei with concern.
Gu Caiwei raised his hand to retract the Law Domain. He rolled his eyes. "Little hussy, you're not worried about me!"
Du Ziqi giggled. "Don't injure Young Master Yan. I still want to have a 'candlelight talk' with him."
"I didn't expect him to have grown to this level." Gu Caiwei said faintly.
The yellow robed girl came over and suppressed her anger. "Junior sister, how do you plan to clean up this mess?"
"A stalemate?" Gu Caiwei smiled faintly, "No, this is the result I want."
"The traitor's survival is the result you want?" The yellow-clothed woman gradually couldn't hold back her anger. "Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you're a head disciple!"
"Senior Sister Huang, don't be angry, Senior Sister Weiwei must have her own reasons." The round-faced girl hurriedly came up to comfort her, and looked towards Gu Caiwei. "Isn't that right, Senior Sister Weiwei?"
Gu Caiwei nodded. "I'm not sure if you remember Xiao Huan."
"Senior sister Xiao Huan?" The round-faced girl exclaimed, "I remember, I remember. She was very good to us, but two years ago, she disappeared for some reason."
Gu Caiwei said lightly, "He said that he didn't stay in the Jianghu Inn and disappeared. I've been secretly investigating this matter, and now I have some clues. Gather around and listen to me … "
Seeing this, the yellow-robed woman hesitated for a moment before following suit.
…
There was a small palm forest outside of Jianghu Town. It was a town without walls, so it was easy to escape to this place.
Xia Yuhe and Yi Ya waited anxiously in the forest, but they still didn't see any trace of Yan Li.
"Brother Yi, will Lord Benefactor be alright?"
"Lord Benefactor's cultivation is not the same as before, don't worry!" Yi Ya comforted his wife.
"If he … it's us who harmed him!" Xia Yuhe said guiltily, "In order to be together, we did such despicable things, and even caused him to fall into danger …"
"If that's the case, my guess was right."
At this moment, Yan Li's voice appeared in the forest.
Seeing Yan Li descending from the sky, Xia Yuhe heaved a sigh of relief and said happily, "Lord Benefactor, you've escaped!"
"Tell me, why did you lure me here, and why did you drug me?" Yan Li said.
"Lord Benefactor knows everything!" Xia Yuhe was so ashamed that she wanted to hide her face.
"I saved you, other than being touched by your love, is because I have a few questions for you to answer." Yan Li said, "There shouldn't be any problems here for the time being."
Xia Yuhe and Yi Ya looked at each other, sighed and said, "Ever since we parted ways with Lord Benefactor, Brother Yi and I did not know where to hide to avoid Lotus Constellation's pursuit, so we placed our hopes on Jianghu Inn."
"Jianghu Inn again?" Yan Li said.
"There's a mysterious legend in the Immortal World." Xia Yuhe said, "It's said that as long as we can afford the rooms in Jianghu Inn, we can avoid any calamity. Brother Yi and I came to Jianghu Town, but in less than half a month, the expensive rooms made us penniless, and we were chased out of the inn. If not for a mysterious kind-hearted person helping us, we would have starved to death on the streets. "
"This matter, was also instigated by that mysterious person?" Yan Li said.
"It's not." Xia Yuhe shook her head, "This matter, was requested by the Demon Hunter Hall, they told me, as long as I complete their task, I can obtain the rights to stay in Jianghu Inn forever."
"What's a bewitching drug?" Yan Li asked.
"That is a drug that causes people to lose consciousness." Xia Yuhe said, "It's called Soul Detachment Powder. This drug is only effective in Jianghu Town. "
"Why?" Yan Li asked.
"Because Jianghu Town was a mass grave a long time ago, and no one knows how many corpses were buried there, so every night, the Yin Qi is especially dense. Once the Soul Detachment Powder comes into contact with the Yin Qi, it will produce a bewitching energy. "Xia Yuhe said.
"And then?" Yan Li said.
Xia Yuhe continued, "For some reason, they said that after Lord Benefactor was poisoned by the Soul Detachment Powder, they would come to receive it, but who knew that it would be Junior Sister Caiwei."
"We, we were forced to betray Lord Benefactor …" She was on the verge of tears as she spoke, "If Lord Benefactor can't get over it, please kill us with your own hands. In any case, we won't be able to escape death in the end …"
"You won't die." Yan Li said indifferently.
"We won't die?" Xia Yuhe asked in a daze.
"I've already guessed the identity of that mysterious person." Yan Li said indifferently, "Alright, leave quickly. If you get caught again, you won't be so lucky anymore."
"Where's Lord Benefactor?" Xia Yuhe asked.
"I want to settle some personal grudges here." Yan Li turned towards the direction of Jianghu Town, there were quite a few auras flocking over.
"En, Lord Benefactor, be careful … we, we …" Xia Yuhe looked at Yi Ya.
Yi Ya suddenly took out a very old book from his bosom, walked to Yan Li's side, and handed it over, "Lord Benefactor's kindness is great, and Yuhe and I have no way to repay you. This book was passed down by our ancestors, and we hope it will be of help to Lord Benefactor."
Yan Li took a look at it, and only saw three big crooked words written on the cover. However, it was dark, and the handwriting was ugly, so he couldn't see clearly what the words were, but he didn't really care, so he casually threw it into the Cosmos Sack. "You guys leave quickly."
Not long after the two left, the group of people finally arrived. What surprised Yan Li was that other than Lu Zhantang and Monk Jiu Rou, there was another familiar person. "Eight-Armed King Kong Luo Kaida."
