As for the tens of thousands of spirit bodies that Xiao Hua collected, King Qian Xuan didn't think much of it. Which commander didn't stuff their own pockets during the war? With Xiao Hua's identity as a suspect, King Qian Xuan didn't think that he could force Xiao Hua to spit out tens of thousands of spirit bodies. Rather than that, he might as well let Xiao Hua leave quickly. King Qian Xuan was even afraid that Xiao Hua would follow Prince Zhaoyan back to the imperial court. He wouldn't be able to deal with the Jipan Nation's envoy and the Kun Nation behind Xiao Hua at the same time.
"Darn it …" Seeing Prince Yuwu's expression, how could King Qianxuan not know what he was thinking? He really wanted to scold him for being a grasshopper after autumn, but on second thought, he was still his own flesh and blood. Thus, he extinguished that thought. When King Qianxuan saw Zhu Ding slip back, he gave him a thumbs up. King Qianxuan's heart was at ease. He said, "I feel that things like spirit bodies are nothing. The key is Lord Cangyu …"
Xiao Hua didn't care about the debate in the imperial court of Xuan Yi Nation. He concealed himself and exited the battleship. First, he moved stealthily for a while. Then, he changed his appearance and revealed himself.
Looking at the familiar flames around him, he had a thought. He landed and flew into the Alchemy Alliance. Xiao Hua had refined a lot of pills during his cultivation. He had no use for low-level pills now. Why wouldn't he use them to exchange for pill formulas?
Yu Zhuo wasn't in the Alchemy Alliance. There weren't many alchemists in the alliance. It looked very bleak, probably because of the war. Xiao Hua cleaned up the immortal pills and received some pill formulas and alchemy missions from the Alchemy Alliance. At the same time, he also asked for the addresses of some other Alchemy Alliance branches.
After leaving the Alchemy Alliance, Xiao Hua flew out of the capital city directly without any reluctance. There were still immortal soldiers guarding the city gates. The entry and exit checks were also very strict. However, Xiao Hua's identity as an alchemist of the Alchemy Alliance didn't arouse the soldiers' suspicion. They respectfully returned the alchemist token to Xiao Hua and made way for him.
Flying out of Xuan Yi's capital city, Xiao Hua took one last look at the towering city walls. The capital city of Xuan Yi Country was the place where Xiao Hua had stayed the longest after entering the Immortal World. Moreover, in this place, Xiao Hua had gained and lost a lot of things.
"Let's just treat it as a relay station …" Xiao Hua retracted his gaze and thought to himself, "In the future, there will be many such relay stations on the path to immortality. They are also Xiao's gains."
Xiao Hua threw out the Immortal boat and jumped onto it. Just as he was about to activate his Immortal Power, "Swoosh …" Not far away from the mountain peak, a blood-red figure in the shape of a human flew over like lightning. Before Xiao Huayu could move, the blood-red figure had already crashed into Hsiao Hua-mei's heart!
Xiao Hua was shocked. However, in just a few breaths, Xiao Hua was stunned again. He thought to himself, "This … Whose Dao Promise is this? Why is it so strange?? "
Xiao Hua thought for a while and controlled the Immortal boat to fly in the direction of the blood-red figure. Just a few hundred miles away, on a mountain peak, Li Moyi was wearing battle armor and kneeling on a mountain peak. He was worshipping sincerely.
"Li Moyi?" Xiao Hua changed his appearance and stopped the Immortal boat. He didn't understand and asked, "What are you doing?"
"My lord, my lord …" When Li Moyi heard Xiao Hua's voice, he felt both joy and sorrow. He hurriedly flew up from the mountain peak and rushed to the Immortal boat. He shouted, "You … You …"
Seeing Li Moyi stuttering, Xiao Hua patted him on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, don't worry, I'm here! What exactly happened? You actually made such a heavy Dao Promise? "
"My lord …" Li Moyi took a deep breath and asked, "Are you going to participate in the Suchong Senxuan?"
Xiao Hua still felt a little confused. He answered in confusion, "Yes!"
"Mm …" Li Moyi smiled and said, "I also want to follow you to participate in the Suchong Senxuan!"
"Why are you participating in the Suchong Senxuan?" Xiao Hua asked. "Isn't it good to announce that Yiguo will be your mounted archer and then be the commander and Changkong?"
"My lord …" Li Moyi smiled mysteriously and said, "My Dao Promise is to follow you for the rest of my life. Do you want me to break my promise?"
"The problem is …" Xiao Hua didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Why did you make a Dao Promise for no reason?"
"My lord …" Li Moyi answered. "It's a long story. Since I want to follow you, why don't you let me steer the boat and listen to my story?"
"Alright …" Xiao Hua hesitated for a moment. Then, he simply did as Li Moyi said and let him steer the immortal boat while he sat on the side and listened to Li Moyi's story.
"My lord …" Li Moyi said first, "I failed to live up to your expectations. In the end, I didn't manage to keep the Dao Promise that you gave me."
"Oh …" Xiao Hua nodded and understood. He said, "I understand. It seems that even with the Zhaoyan Prince and Kou Zhen's support, such a great Dao Promise won't fall into the hands of a Senjō like you who has no foundation!"
"Yes, my lord …" Li Moyi smiled bitterly. "Even if I had your strength, it would take a lot of effort to keep the Dao Promise. Not to mention that my cultivation is not good enough. I wasn't even a mounted archer before. "
"Your strength lies in planning, not in fighting. This has nothing to do with your military position!"
"The problem is …" Li Moyi shook his head. "The Zhaoyan Prince doesn't understand these things. Kou Zhen has to compromise with the interests of the army. King Qian Xuan doesn't care about such details …"
Then, although Li Moyi's tone was casual, his expression was still a little melancholy as he explained the cause of the matter. Xiao Hua's worries were not groundless. Even if Li Moyi successfully commanded the battle in the Heavenly Valley and made great contributions, when Xiao Hua handed over command to Qian Chen, Li Moyi's contributions were also remembered by others! Before Xiao Hua let Li Moyi command, Li Moyi was a nobody. Even Xuan Lan didn't know him. How could he keep the Dao Promise?
He was not as ruthless as Xiao Hua thought. At this time, the battle was not completely over, and the Senjō's contributions had not been finalized. However, from the moment Li Moyi left the Heavenly Valley, coldness, indifference, ridicule, probing, flattery, and other things that he had never encountered before in the Immortal World appeared one by one in front of him. Li Moyi was an Immortal Ascendant. What he had experienced was no less than Xiao Hua's. It was no longer appropriate to describe him as smart. It should be wise and farsighted.
From what he saw in the next few days, Li Moyi found that although he could get a temporary contribution, it was difficult to keep it with his strength. It was even very likely that he would be attacked in the future! Li Moyi's strength was in military strategy and planning, but how many soldiers could Xuan Country fight? Only a Senjō like Xiao Hua, who had strength and backing, could stand shoulder to shoulder with Kou Zhen and stand tall in Xuan Country for a long time.
Seeing this, Li Moyi naturally had to think about how to escape. Xiao Hua did not mention Suchong Senxuan to Li Moyi, but he said to Li Moyi that he would leave after the battle. With Li Moyi's intelligence, it was not difficult to guess where Xiao Hua was going.
Therefore, long before Xiao Hua returned to the capital of Xuan Country, he had a plan. He was prepared to discuss with Xiao Hua to see if he could participate in Suchong Senxuan with Xiao Hua. However, when the Zhaoyan Prince returned and Li Moyi went to greet him, there was no sign of Xiao Hua.
After Li Moyi asked in detail, he immediately understood Xiao Hua's situation. Without thinking, he asked the Zhaoyan Prince for a place in Suchong Senxuan, saying that he would use the merit of the Battle of Xiaochen Valley to exchange for it.
The Zhaoyan Prince knew better than anyone how great the merit of the Battle of Xiaochen Valley was. Although Li Moyi's merit would not give him a headache, if Li Moyi backed down and gave the merit to some of the vice-changkong and commanders who could help him ascend to the throne, the Zhaoyan Prince would naturally hope. Therefore, the Zhaoyan Prince did not hesitate and had Li Moyi wait outside the palace while he entered the court to meet with King Qianxuan. After all, only King Qianxuan could decide the candidates for Suchong Senxuan.
Just as Li Moyi expected, in less than the time it took for an incense stick to burn, an immortal guard flew out and presented the imperial edict for participating in the Tuochong Immortal Selection, as well as bestowing Li Moyi with the Cavalry Archery Seal.
Seeing that the Zhaoyan Prince did not appear, Li Moyi also knew that the competition between the Zhaoyan Prince and Yuwu Prince had begun in the court. The longer he stayed in Xuan Yi, the more danger he would be in. Therefore, he made a prompt decision to leave.
When Li Moyi inquired at the immortal soldier at the city gate, he was dumbfounded again, because the immortal soldier did not see Xiao Hua leave the city at all.
Li Moyi immediately remembered Xiao Hua's unfathomable concealment technique.
Li Moyi's heart turned cold. Only now did he truly understand what it meant by "Man proposes, God disposes"! Without Xiao Hua, Li Moyi's participation in the Suchong Senxuan would be a dead end. However, he took a place in Suchong Senxuan from Xuan Yi. If he did not participate in the Suchong Senxuan, it would be a dead end. If he had not acted smart and not discussed with Xiao Hua, acting first and reporting later, how would he have ended up in this situation?
Li Moyi felt remorseful and immediately began to search for a way to escape. He tried to refine the imperial edict into the Cavalry Archery Seal, but he couldn't find any trace of Xiao Hua. In the end, he really had no way out. Only then did he find a nearby mountain peak. Thinking of the heavens, he made the most vicious vow, to follow Xiao Hua by his side, to be loyal to Xiao Hua forever.
Li Moyi hoped that Xiao Hua would not go far and would be able to find him based on this vow.
Li Moyi made the right bet. Just as he made the vow, Xiao Hua appeared in front of him. Li Moyi could only sigh that fate had already tied him to Xiao Hua. He had no other thoughts.
After listening to Li Moyi's story, Xiao Hua also sighed. If he had not been delayed at the Alchemy Alliance, he would have been hundreds of thousands of miles away by now with his escape technique and the flying speed of the immortal boat. How would he be able to find Li Moyi's tracks? However, Xiao Hua still had a meaningful smile on his face as he said, "Li Moyi, since you can ascend to the Celestial Realm, you are naturally a hero. I won't say anything else. Now that you are in a dilemma, I can take you with me. However, I think it's better to remove this vow of yours. I don't like to use any vow to tie down a living person!"
