Chapter 229 Rushing
Will it be a frame-up?
Or to be more precise, sow discord and make both sides suspicious of each other?
It’s unlikely.
The young dragon soul of a real dragon is probably intolerable to Donghai. Of course, this can be explained. After all, it is impossible for Li Qi and others to actively hunt young dragons.
In fact, the baby dragons will not come to Baiyue. This place is far away from the East China Sea, and there is a Central Plains in the middle. Judging from the importance that real dragons attach to their cubs, they will probably have many nannies around them.
Therefore, you cannot put the blame on yourself.
Then let yourself doubt the real dragon?
That's not to say, Li Qi didn't think this thing would be related to a real dragon. This dragon soul was probably also a victim.
So the final conclusion is still to muddy the waters.
"I'm afraid this is still a strategy to muddy the waters. If they can deceive or kill us, that would be the best. If not, if we kill them, their goal will probably be achieved." Li Qi said to Shen Shuibi.
If they were deceived, they would have in their hands a Master of the Witch God Mountain and the Moon Spirit that Empress Luofu cared about.
This holds a very important bargaining chip and will definitely bring about a lot of chaos.
For example...preventing myself from going to Tang Dynasty.
This will definitely make other people suspicious, asking whether Wu Shenshan is hiding Li Qi, but is actually preparing to activate the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron secretly.
I went to the Tang Kingdom originally to appease other forces. If I couldn't go and still disappeared in the realm of Wushen Mountain, it would be a lot of fun.
Even if he wasn't deceived, it was still a good thing that the corpse could kill both of them.
Wu Shenshan will definitely also suspect that the Tang State or other forces took the initiative to silence him because he was not trustworthy. Such suspicions at this juncture may affect many decisions.
The last time, the corpse was killed by the two of them, and they reported the news. This would make everyone be wary, not to mention mutual suspicion, but certainly not to cooperate together.
The simple truth is, just like Werewolf, everyone is a good person, so the cooperation will be very frank, as long as it is negotiated on the table.
Let me tell you now, there is a wolf hiding among these people on the table.
It is only natural that we should be wary of each other.
"Tsk... No matter how we deal with it, all parties will be suspicious." Li Qi rubbed his temples, as if there was no solution to this matter.
What if you don't tell others and hide this matter?
If it leads to a misjudgment of the situation by the superiors, the matter will be even bigger. For example, if the corpse is indeed sent by the Tang State, if he conceals it, Wu Shenshan will think that the Tang State can still cooperate...
Damn it, whatever you do is wrong.
This thing is really tricky.
How to deal with it?
"Li Qi...?" Shen Shuibi looked at Li Qi and found that his face was covered with a mask of pain.
It's really painful... I'm just a small eighth-grade person, why am I like this?
I shouldn't have to worry about this kind of thing in the first place!
Finally, Li Qi sighed: "Forget it, we don't understand the situation, so don't act rashly. I will report this matter to the teacher. Other than that, don't tell anyone. Don't report it publicly to Wu Shenshan."
"We don't know what's going on at the top, and they probably won't tell me. Tell the teacher about this and let him make the decision. We just need to be prepared." Li Qi sighed.
Fortunately, there is one thing that is more reassuring.
It is estimated that it will be difficult for the opponent to send a strong person who can kill him instantly to cause trouble for him.
Every move of the high-end combat forces is monitored by each other. Just like when the Great Witch takes action, the Tang State will definitely send out corresponding experts to counterattack, and will not suddenly take action to cause trouble.
This is true for the third and fourth grades, and the same is true for the fifth and sixth grades. There will definitely be corresponding people to protect them.
An assassin who can truly hide all auras should not be much stronger than Li Qi.
Maybe……
What else could you think?
There is really a fifth- and sixth-grade sneak coming, so there is no way to stop it.
I can only comfort myself in this way.
After finalizing what to do, the next steps will be done step by step.
Soon, the real people from Wushen Mountain arrived.
Not one person, but an entire fleet.
A fifth-grade leader, with a dozen followers, and a team of driving blue birds, pulled a rather luxurious vehicle and slowly descended from the sky.
The fifth grade person is in front, with a calm face, very ordinary clothes and appearance, just like a passerby on the street, without any sense of superiority.
There were more than a dozen followers behind him, all of whom were in the seventh grade, but they should not be disciples of Wushen Mountain. Li Qi could tell that these people practiced different methods, and some of them were not even members of the witchcraft.
Perhaps these followers have another origin.
The vehicle looks very luxurious, with carved dragons and painted phoenixes, nine levels of Danbi, and patterns on it, like the moon in the river waves and the shadows of willow trees in the wind.
But that's it, other places look like ordinary vehicles, nothing unusual.
On the contrary, the blue birds pulling the cart in front are all of the eighth grade.
"Master Qi, please get in the car. Go back to the mountain and rest for a while. We are going to Tang Kingdom." The fifth-rank man stepped forward and bowed his hand to Li Qi with respect.
Li Qi immediately returned the gift without slacking off at all.
Facing a senior who is stronger than himself, even if his identity is a little special, he cannot be arrogant.
So, he greeted the other attendants one by one.
Most of these followers were frightened and called him "Master", and some of them were even timid and knelt down.
It's obvious that their cultivation level is higher than Li Qi's.
Li Qi felt that he couldn't bear it, so he quickly helped them to relax.
As for those blue birds, although their cultivation level is at the eighth level, they are all livestock. Although their cultivation level is high, they have no intelligence and are just beasts.
Li Qi carried the old horse and climbed into the carriage.
This behavior attracted frequent glances from the followers, but no one dared to say anything.
The fifth-grade expert looked calm, opened the door for Li Qi, and then sat in himself.
After entering, I discovered...
Really ordinary.
It was so ordinary. Li Qi thought it would be like a cave or something, but in fact it was just a car. It looked the same on the outside and the same on the inside.
Put the sleepy old horse in, and it's even a little crowded...
Very plain.
Li Qi and Shen Shuibi were sitting together, with Lao Ma lying on the aisle in front of them.
The fifth-grade man was sitting opposite, smiling and looking like a kind uncle.
He didn't seem to care at all. After sitting in, he tapped his hand and saw the convoy flying.
At the same time, he also said: "If I remember correctly, is this the first time that Young Master Qi has returned to the mountain?"
"Senior's words are correct." Li Qi answered honestly.
The fifth-grade man smiled and said: "This is really strange. Generally speaking, young men will grow up in the mountain gate before going down to the mountains to travel to various small worlds to train themselves."
"I have been walking outside since the beginning, and I have reached the eighth level of cultivation before returning to the mountain for the first time. This is the first time I have encountered him."
"Haha..." Li Qi smiled awkwardly and didn't say much.
What else could be done?
"The great witch has already told me that Young Master Qi has never been back to the mountains. I'm afraid he's a little uncomfortable with it. He asked you to go to his cave as soon as you arrive. If there's anything you don't like on the way, it depends on your mood." The fifth grade is slow and leisurely.
"Senior, what do you mean by being 'unacceptable'?" Li Qi was still thinking about the attack he just encountered. When he suddenly heard these words, he stopped thinking and turned his attention here.
What does it mean to be disgusted with?
"It means that if someone else blocks the road to challenge or provoke, Young Master Qi can handle it on his own. He will not take action, but he will cover it for you. Don't be afraid if something happens." The fifth-grade man replied with a smile.
Li Qi wiped his sweat and did not continue to answer.
Forget it, there are still external forces making troubles now. The top priority is to tell the teacher about the matter and hand over the trouble.
Then he rushed to the Tang Dynasty to bridge the gaps between the two sides and settle the dispute.
As for someone blocking the road...
Forget it, if you don’t have any grudges, why bother?
Li Qi simply changed the topic and said to the fifth grade: "Senior, can you take a detour and let's go to Shewei County in the Dalu Kingdom?"
"Huh? As long as the young master is happy, it will only take an hour or two anyway." He did not stop him.
Then, there was silence in the carriage.
An hour or two later, the car passed through Dalu Country and Shewei County in Baishe Prefecture.
But he saw a golden thread descending and falling into the county magistrate's house.
Then, the car left quietly without anyone noticing that something was coming.
But suddenly, the magistrate of Shewei County died suddenly while he was having a feast. Except for a blood spot on his head, he had no injuries on his body.
"Why?" the fifth-grade man suddenly asked.
He had been silent since Li Qi shut up on the road, but after Li Qi took action, he began to ask why.
Li Qize replied politely and thoughtfully: "In the past, I had some conflicts with him because of my help. Since then, I escaped with my life. At that time, I said I would come back."
"Oh." He just nodded and said no more words.
Then, the car outside became faster and faster.
I don't know what those blue birds and followers are here for. They seem to be standing nearby to make a show.
When the car is driving, there is an air cover on the outside to isolate the inside and outside, so it doesn't matter where you stand. It seems that their mission is really just to 'look good'.
What a waste.
The car speeded up and then flew directly into the sky.
Li Qi watched the car pass through the clouds with his own eyes.
Above the clouds, there was a fierce wind.
When the strong wind comes, there is the sound of the hub turning.
Thunder and fire intersect, creating clouds, mist, and electric snakes.
The sky's strong air blows from right to left.
The sun is scorching, and there are so many trees that you can’t see them all.
The mist was flying at nine o'clock, and suddenly the mist spread across the sky, reaching the Gangfeng layer. Li Qi suddenly saw countless people, all of whom seemed to be on their way here.
There are many cultivators. Originally, not many could be seen on the ground, but when they came to the Gangfeng layer, the number suddenly increased.
On the Gangfeng layer, there are countless attics, standing in the wind, with countless escaping lights passing through them.
There are also many giant beasts, each several miles long, like boats, floating in the strong wind.
There are more cars and boats like Li Qi's, each with different characteristics. They are traveling through the Gangfeng layer, and they should all be single-person.
This...how come I've never seen this before?
However, Shen Shuibi looked used to it, she should have known it for a long time.
No wonder we usually don’t see cultivators rushing on their way. It turns out that they are all in the strong wind above the clouds. If their cultivation level is lower than the eighth level, they will not be able to get in at all.
However, Li Qi's car seemed to have some kind of mark. As soon as he arrived here, he saw hundreds of giant beasts turning around, many lofts were driven by magic to make way, countless practitioners stood still, and those far away started to Escape.
The car he was riding in ignored all this and flew quickly towards the higher sky.
Higher than the Nine Heavens Gale Layer.
Above the Nine Heavens Gale, Li Qi saw the ‘sky’.
That was the real sky…
It seemed to be a thin layer of foam, the kind of soap bubbles blown by children, with that kind of colorful light, and outside, there was sunlight shining from above.
The sun covered everything, and there was no star or darkness.
In this place, the sun occupied the entire sky.
It was so huge that the entire sky was a dazzling white light, so dazzling that if a mortal was here, his eyes would probably go blind directly, and there was no cure.
It was magnificent, huge, and spectacular, like a column of light piercing the sky.
These sunlight will be weakened by the Nine Heavens Gale and the clouds, and eventually become warm sun, fall to the ground, and become energy for all things to grow comfortably.
However, here, where the sky is, the sunlight has not been weakened at all.
Here, it seems that the whole world is melted under the same light.
The torrent of light rippled like the waves of the sea, and the pure energy was surging and burning in front of everyone's eyes. Even Li Qi was pierced by the light and his eyes were full of tears. Except for a vast expanse of white, he could not see anything. It was as if there was a thick layer of frosted glass in front of his eyes, but fortunately he would not be blinded.
Everything was dancing, like a boiling boiler, filled with an inspiring and prosperous atmosphere.
Yang energy, unparalleled yang energy.
So thick, it was enough to dispel all darkness.
Shen Shuibi shrank her body, as if she was very uncomfortable here.
Li Qi was a little puzzled. Although the light was very blazing, the yang energy was actually blocked by the air shield outside the vehicle, and there was actually no feeling inside.
If it was not blocked, it would probably take a seventh-grade or above to survive here, otherwise it would probably be burned to ashes directly.
Only those above the seventh-grade can go to the outer domain alone, which should be the reason.
Li Qi protected Shen Shuibi, called out the Taiyin God, covered the rabbit, and then put his hand on her back to help her breathe.
Shen Shuibi endured it without saying anything, but sat forward, leaving Li Qi's hand empty.
The fifth-rank wizard who was driving said, "Don't worry, the essence of the moon will feel a little uncomfortable when it is exposed to the sun. It will be fine when we get to the outer domain."
"Yeah." Li Qi pretended to be nothing and nodded.
Just as he said, after about four or five minutes, the sunlight gradually weakened.
Li Qi was finally able to open his eyes, and then he looked back.
Then, he saw an extremely spectacular scene.
Two spheres and a continent were suspended in the void.
It was not that the sun was big and the moon was small as Li Qi knew before, but that the sun and the moon were equally big, and they revolved around a continent together.
"We are in the outer domain, we need to speed up, sit tight." The fifth-rank wizard said.
Then, the speed increased sharply.
Vote, brothers!
