Chapter 174 Redemption, Soul Escape Shuttle
Seeing that Liu Yunfei was a little anxious, Li Yi comforted him: "Fellow Daoist Liu, don't be anxious. Maybe something has delayed you. Please tell me the specific story of the matter, and I will help you think of a solution together."
"The thing is like this. A few days ago, several senior brothers from Huolinggu suddenly came and asked Xiaotie to help refine a magic weapon. Xiaotie declined, but he didn't refuse and had no choice but to go along, but After going there, he never came back. I have been looking for him for two days, but there is no clue. Later, I heard someone said that I saw them leaving the city, but there was no trace. Found him, I suspect he was detained, so I'm worried," Liu Yunfei said with a very ugly face.
After hearing these words, Li Yi also frowned. He felt a hint of conspiracy from it. It was just for refining weapons. There was no need to go outside the city at all, and there were many places in the inner city where weapons could be refined.
Just when Li Yi was deep in thought, there was a violent fluctuation of mana outside the attic where they lived. Someone was actually attacking the formation outside. Li Yi and Li Yi looked at each other and flew out.
At this time, standing outside the formation was a monk who was in the early stage of foundation building. This man wore a bamboo hat, his face was covered with black gauze, and he was holding a long sword weapon. He was attacking their formation. Li Yi asked in a deep voice He said: "Who are you, your Excellency? Why are you attacking our formation? This is the imperial city of Chu State. Don't you take the royal family of Chu State seriously?"
"Humph, so what about the royal family? You finally came out. I have been looking for you for a long time. Don't worry about who I am. You guys know Zhang Tie! When he was refining weapons, he destroyed one of my senior brother's top-level items. The magic weapon needs to be compensated now. He can't get enough spiritual stones from him, so it has been taken away by my senior brother. You two are his friends, so you two will go to this place outside the city at noon tomorrow. If you don't want to go, prepare to collect the body for him!" The monk in the early stage of foundation building said coldly. Finally, he threw down a blue jade slip and left.
Li Yi made a move with one hand, and a big hand formed by five-color aura grabbed the jade slip. He used the magical power of Five Elements Great Capture. He did not dare to pick up the jade slip that the other party threw to him. If the other party poisons it, it will be troublesome. After taking the jade slip, Li Yi scanned it with his spiritual thoughts. The place recorded in the jade slip was still quite far from the inner city. According to the general flight speed of monks in the foundation building period, if they wanted to arrive before noon, they would have to leave tonight. , it was obvious that the other party had calculated the time and gave them no time to prepare at all.
After Li Yi read it, he handed the jade slip to Liu Yunfei.
After reading the contents of the jade slip, Liu Yunfei's face turned extremely ugly, and she said coldly: "Why did Junior Brother Zhang go to such a far place? I just don't know what materials I need to compensate the other party."
There was some worry in Liu Yunfei's words. Although one of them was proficient in weapon refining and the other was good at setting up formations, and they were also very valuable people, Zhang Tie couldn't afford to pay for the materials. It can be seen that the damaged materials must be very precious.
After hearing Liu Yunfei's words, Li Yi sneered and said, "Brother Zhang probably wasn't detained by the other party because he failed in refining the weapon and wasted materials, but because the other party did this deliberately, waiting for us to go out and surrender." What about the snare? If it was a normal weapon refining, even if Brother Zhang really damaged the precious materials, he shouldn't be detained. Brother Zhang would definitely be released to collect spiritual stones. Anyway, Brother Zhang's origins are clear and he can't escape. , Brother Zhang is not a reckless person. If it is really a precious material, he will definitely have agreed on the compensation issue before, so there will be no situation where he cannot afford the compensation. "
After Li Yi finished speaking, Liu Yunfei's face became even more ugly. If what Li Yi said was true, they were in big trouble. He immediately said: "What can we do? Xiaotie and I have no sins. Man, why would they do that?”
Although she and Zhang Tie were already in the foundation building stage, they did not worship the monks at the golden elixir stage as their teachers, so they had no backers and their strength was average. When encountering such a thing, even she, who was usually relatively calm, panicked.
"It's true that you haven't offended anyone, but you want to attend the discussion meeting with me. You also know that the day before yesterday, I killed a late-stage Foundation Establishment monk on the fighting stage. I guess they are afraid of my strength. I want to get rid of us in advance. This time, I didn't think well. I should be the one who caused Brother Zhang. Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Liu! I will save Brother Zhang, don't worry." Li Yi said.
It wasn't until this moment that Li Yi realized that it was probably because when he killed Chen Nan that day, he acted too easily, which made some people feel afraid, so he thought of ways to deal with them. Li Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. Originally, he wanted to show some strength and make the monks who wanted to cause trouble for him retreat in the face of difficulties, but he didn't expect that it would be self-defeating.
"Well, in this case, I have to trouble fellow Daoist Li. The little lady is very grateful." Liu Yunfei said very gratefully.
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Liu. The three of us are here together. Of course we have to help each other. Without further ado, let's set off now." Li Yi said very seriously.
After saying that, the two of them left the inner city together and flew towards the west.
Since Li Yi agreed to save people, he would not fail to make preparations. Since the other party dared to deal with them blatantly and was so far away from the Chu Kingdom's imperial city, it was obvious that they had made a lot of preparations. If they really arrived at the time they said, they might fall into the other party's ambush. Li Yi would naturally not do such a stupid thing.
After leaving the imperial city for a distance, the Lihuo Boat under Li Yi suddenly stopped, which surprised Liu Yunfei. She asked in confusion: "Fellow Daoist Li, why did you stop? Is there any problem?"
"There is no problem, but the speed of the Lihuo Boat is a bit slow. I have a top-level flying magic weapon in my hand. If we change a magic weapon, we should be able to get there before dawn and find out the details of the other party. We can't arrive at the time they said. If so, we will be too passive and may fall into the other party's trap." Li Yi said quickly, and then took out a small green shuttle. This thing was the flying magic weapon he got when he killed the pretty woman of Gongshu's family, the Dunling Shuttle.
In the past, after he had flown for a long time, the opponent was able to catch up with him with this wooden shuttle. After obtaining this flying shuttle, Li Yi also tried it and found that the speed of this Soul Escape Shuttle was more than twice as fast as his Fire Boat, but the space inside was very small and could only accommodate two or three people.
