Suddenly, a 'sou' sound was heard as a dart suddenly appeared and hit the beam of light, creating a crack in the seemingly tyrannical beam of light. The other end swayed and suddenly bounced back into Jiang Liechen's eyes. With a 'pa' sound, Jiang Liechen suddenly retreated, his face distorted. It was obvious that his eyes had been hit and at the same time, he had also suffered a backlash from his internal energy. The injury was not small. This was similar to two people competing with internal energy. If one side withdrew first, the other's internal energy would be transferred to the other's body. It was the same principle.
As Jiang Liechen's internal energy retreated, the light binding Manor Master Xia's body also weakened until it completely disappeared. Li Yijie somersaulted between the two people. Without saying anything, he hastily pulled Manor Master Xia and leaped out of the temple. In a flash, he stood in front of Manor Master Xia and vigilantly watched the situation inside the temple. After a while, Manor Master Xia recovered from his shock and said, "You … why are you here? I won't thank you! "
Li Yijie unhappily said, "I didn't come here to receive your thanks. Listen carefully, this demon is extremely strong. Even if you and I join hands, we won't be able to defeat him. Later on, I will count to three, two, one. I will stay here and delay him. You take the opportunity to leave quickly. Go back to the capital and go to Wulin Union's headquarters. "Manor Master Xia said," Why should I listen to you? "Seeing Li Yijie's serious expression, his tone finally improved a little. He asked," Then what about you? "
Li Yijie said, "I will lead him to another place. When we fight, we won't have to worry about destroying the thousand-year-old temple and he won't have to kill anyone in the temple."
Manor Master Xia angrily said, "You said yourself that the two of us are not his match. How can you escape unscathed by yourself? You want to sacrifice yourself and make me feel indebted to you for the rest of my life? I am not so cowardly that I need a junior to stand in front of me. " Li Yijie said, "Don't be so long-winded. I don't intend to exchange my life for yours. I'm not that noble. Anyway, you just have to listen to me …"
Before his voice fell, both of them felt a gust of cold wind sweep past them. Jiang Liechen's figure had already flitted out of the temple like a ghost. He said indifferently, "It's you again? Alliance Master Li. It had been a month since he last saw him, but he still hadn't made any progress. Even if he didn't meddle in other people's business for a moment, he would still be bored to death. I haven't even looked for you, yet you've taken the initiative to stir up trouble. Are you courting death? "His voice was no longer as hoarse as it had been a month ago, and it was even more sinister than before.
Li Yijie silently touched Manor Master Xia's arm, indicating that he should be ready at any time. Then, he pretended to be indifferent and walked forward. With one hand on his waist, he said with a smile, "Yo, since when did the Seven Evil Spirits, who kill without batting an eyelid, have the heart to repent and come to Shaolin Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha? Indeed, there was no one in this world that could not be converted! It's just that your method is a bit too extreme. Let me ask you, did you kill all the disciples in the temple? "
Jiang Liechen coldly said, "So what if I did? If you want to fight for justice for a bunch of good-for-nothings, I can send you down to see them at any time. It just so happens that I feel that Manor Master Xia alone is not enough, so I'll add you as a sacrifice as well. Very good. "
Li Yijie smiled mischievously and said, "Looking at your current situation, I presume your skill has improved a lot. We are all brothers, why be so heartless? "Jiang Liechen laughed coldly and said," Don't try to worm your way into being friends with me. I have already become a demon, I no longer have any worldly feelings. "
Li Yijie said, "No worldly feelings? No love, no hate? I didn't expect that you were born with a merciful heart. Even I, your mortal enemy, who has driven you to a dead end several times, can be so easily spared? Then I must thank you very much. Thank you very much. "While saying that, he pretended to cup his hands and bow.
Jiang Liechen listened to his strange explanation and was momentarily stunned. Taking advantage of his distraction, Li Yijie suddenly counted, "Three, two, one!" He suddenly pushed Manor Master Xia and shouted, "Quickly run!" At the same time, he pulled out his sword and chopped toward Jiang Liechen. He only wanted to delay for a while, as for whether or not his sword could hit his target, that was a matter outside of his own body.
Jiang Liechen's consciousness immediately returned and he muttered to himself, "Damn it, so he was playing with me." Once again, Li Yijie saw Jiang Liechen raise his sleeve and attack his face. Just as he was thinking about what kind of sword technique he should use to defend himself, he suddenly heard a 'bang' sound and a thick grey smoke appeared in front of him. It quickly spread between the two of them and in the blink of an eye, he could no longer see his opponent's shadow.
Li Yijie thought that Jiang Liechen was playing tricks on him, so he immediately held his breath and closed his eyes, using his hearing to sense his opponent's location. Before he could sense anything, he felt his arm was grabbed and someone was pulling him away. Li Yijie could tell from the strength of the person's hand that the person did not have any evil intentions. In front of him, he had no chance of winning, so he resigned himself to his fate and waited to see where this person would take him.
He had only taken a few steps when his arm was suddenly lifted and his body was pulled up into the air. Li Yijie quickly used his lightness kungfu to follow closely behind. It seemed as if he was stepping on the rubble of the roof, his feet made a 'sha sha' sound. After running for a while, he finally got rid of the grey smoke in front of him. And that mysterious person was actually Manor Master Xia.
Li Yijie was really surprised and curious, but before he could ask, his mind was clouded by another thought. He laughed mischievously and anxiously said, "Senior Xia, you … what are you doing? If the two of us go together, I'm afraid neither of us will be able to escape … "Manor Master Xia angrily said," Shut up! Even if I die, it's better than being rescued by a junior! "
Li Yijie saw that he could not reason with him, so he had no choice but to say, "But I can't go! I said that I would lead him somewhere else. What if he can't find us and gets angry out of humiliation and starts killing people and setting fire to the Shaolin Temple? " Manor Master Xia was enraged and said in a low voice, "You little brat, do you really like to meddle in other people's business? Although the 'Seven Demons' are despicable, this point is not wrong. What does the lives of the Shaolin monks have to do with you? "
Li Yijie frowned and remembered his previous teaching, "When you meet a stubborn old man, you must avoid arguing with him. It's better to play around with him." He said, "The Shaolin Temple belongs to the Wulin Union, so naturally it is under the protection of the Union Leader. In contrast, I am very interested in why Senior Xia appeared in the Holy Land of Buddhism. Could it be that you are also thinking about your past misdeeds and have come to repent to Buddha and want to convert to Buddhism? "
Manor Master Xia angrily said, "Don't talk nonsense, I … can't I be pious once in a while? It's none of your business. " Seeing that Li Yijie did not answer for a long time, he felt bored and said, "That's right, just now you saved my life, now I will also save your life. An eye for an eye, let's call it quits. Next time we meet, don't think that you can use my kindness to blackmail me into doing something for you! "
Li Yijie laughed and said, "When did I ever think about blackmailing you? Listening to your tone, it seems that you hate being saved? "
Manor Master Xia cursed in a low voice and said, "It's just that I hate owing people a favor. I don't allow others to owe me, and I will never owe anyone anything! As the saying goes, if you eat someone's food, you have to be soft-hearted. Debt of gratitude is far more troublesome than this. Once you owe someone a favor, it seems that you are three points lower in front of that person. Seeing him is like a slave seeing his master, or a gambler seeing his creditor. I want to hide but I don't dare to, and I want to hide but I have nowhere to hide. My conscience constantly reminds me that I am not on the same level as him, so I can no longer treat him casually, but I also can't neglect him. If he has something to ask of me, no matter how difficult it is, no matter how much it goes against my will, I have to do my best to help him even if I have to risk my life. In short, after I owe someone a favor, I have to always think of doing something for him. Only then can I become a free person. Going back and forth is really troublesome. I am a person who likes to do business. If I get something from a transaction, I accept it with a clear conscience. But I can't accept someone's gift without knowing why! "
Li Yijie smiled bitterly and said, "How can it be so complicated? As the saying goes, at home you rely on your parents, but when you go out you rely on your friends. In Jianghu, you should help each other. Why should you feel that you owe someone? What's more, the other person's purpose may not be to ask you to repay him. As for the matter of risking your life, if you don't want to do it, you can naturally refuse. No one has the right to order others to die for him, even if it is for a noble purpose. As for the reason why sacrifice is regarded as noble, it is because people with high awareness are willing to sacrifice themselves for others. But in my opinion … "
Manor Master Xia shook his head and said, "No, no, if I can't repay you in time, my conscience will always be uneasy. In short, listen to me carefully. I don't owe you a favor right now. Do you remember? "
Li Yijie laughed and said, "Alright, no, no. I didn't expect Xia Qianbei's sense of responsibility to be stronger than mine. Junior needs to learn more from you." In his heart he thought, "What kind of sense of responsibility is this? How is it different from a subject who doesn't know right from wrong and is blindly loyal to his master? But Manor Master Xia can be considered a good man. It seems that if I have something to ask of him in the future, he will be reliable. I just need to find a way to make him owe me a favor or make him feel that he owes me a favor … "
Just as he was making a long-term plan, Manor Master Xia suddenly stopped and looked around. He said, "At this point, he shouldn't be able to catch up with us. Hey, kid, if you don't want me to appreciate your kindness and don't want me to repay you, why did you save me? Just for those worthless reputations? Unfortunately, there was no one else around! "
Li Yijie sternly said, "I didn't save you for any benefit. I just want you to stand firm and make the choice you think is right. As for me, I might persuade you a little, but I won't force you. Therefore, you don't need to be wary of me at all times. " Manor Master Xia frowned and said, "Nonsense … nonsense. Who said that I came to Shaolin Temple because I was wavering in front of you and the Imperial Court and that I came here to ask Abbot for help?"
Li Yijie secretly laughed, "You still deny it? Didn't you tell me everything? Since you are still hesitating in your heart, it means that there is still hope … You mustn't act too hastily. " He deliberately pretended not to hear Manor Master Xia's slip of the tongue and said, "Xia Qianbei, junior wants to ask you a question, is that okay?"
Seeing Manor Master Xia's defensive posture again, he laughed and said, "Don't worry, I don't want to persuade you, and I don't want to spy on you … If this goes on, won't I not be able to talk to you? Moreover, since I am the one who asked you, I owe you a favor. You can take this opportunity to ask me for help. You are a businessman, so this is a profitable business. Do you want to do it or not? "
Manor Master Xia hesitated for a moment and finally nodded. Li Yijie pulled him to a high place on the roof and sat down. He said, "Xia Qianbei, I heard that your ancestors have a secret formation that is very powerful. However, I think that no matter how complicated the formation is, if you can create it, you can also break it. Therefore, junior wants to ask you how to break it. Can you tell me? "
