Chapter 229: Hurrying on the Road

Will it be a frame-up?

Or to be more precise, to sow discord and make the two sides suspicious of each other?

Not likely.

The dragon soul of a young dragon of a real dragon, this is probably intolerable for the East China Sea. Of course, this can be explained. After all, Li Qi and others would not actively hunt the young dragon.

In fact, the young dragon would not run to Baiyue. There is still a Central Plains between here and the East China Sea. Given the importance that the real dragons attach to their cubs, there would probably be many nannies around them.

So, the blame cannot be put on me.

Then let me suspect the real dragon?

Not really. Li Qi doesn't think this thing will be related to the real dragon. This dragon soul is probably also a victim.

So the final conclusion is still to muddy the water.

"I'm afraid this is still a strategy to muddy the water. If they can trick us or kill us, that would be the best. If not, and we kill them, their goal is probably achieved." Li Qi said to Shen Shuibi.

If they succeeded in deceiving me, they would have a young master from Wushen Mountain and the Moon Spirit that Empress Luofu cares about.

This would hold a very important bargaining chip, which would definitely bring a lot of chaos.

For example... I couldn't go to Tang State.

This would definitely make other people suspicious, questioning whether Wushen Mountain hid Li Qi, but was actually preparing to secretly activate the Sun and Moon True Lead Cauldron.

I went to Tang State to reassure other forces. If I couldn't go, or if I disappeared in Wushen Mountain, that would be a lot of fun.

Even if I didn't succeed, it would be a good thing that the corpse could kill the two of us.

Wushen Mountain would definitely suspect that it was Tang State or other forces who took the initiative to kill us because they didn't trust us. Such suspicion at this critical moment would probably affect many decisions.

At the very least, if the corpse was killed by the two of us and I reported the news, it would also make everyone alert. Not to mention suspicion, but they would definitely not dare to work together.

It's a very simple truth, just like the Werewolf game, if everyone is a good person, then the cooperation will be very honest, as long as it is discussed on the surface.

Now I tell you, there is a wolf hidden among these people on the surface.

Then it is natural to be vigilant against each other.

"Tsk... No matter how it is handled, it will make all parties suspicious." Li Qi rubbed his temples, and this matter seemed to have no solution.

What if I don't tell others and keep it secret?

If it leads to the misjudgment of the situation by the superiors, then the matter will be even bigger. For example, if this corpse is indeed sent by the Tang Kingdom, if I keep it secret, Wushen Mountain will think that the Tang Kingdom can still cooperate...

Damn, no matter what I do, it's wrong.

This matter is really tricky.

How to deal with it?

"Li Qi...?" Shen Shuibi looked at Li Qi and found that his face was full of painful masks.

It's really painful... I'm just a small eighth-grade, why is it like this?

This kind of thing shouldn't be something I should worry about!

Finally, Li Qi sighed: "Forget it, we don't understand the situation, don't act rashly, I will report this to the teacher, other than that, don't tell anyone, don't report it publicly to Wushen Mountain."

"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'll just be prepared." Li Qi sighed.

Fortunately, there is one thing that can make people feel at ease.

It is estimated that it is difficult for the other party to send a strong man who can kill me in seconds to cause trouble for me.

Every move of the high-end combat power is monitored by each other, just like when the great witch takes action, the Tang Kingdom will inevitably send out the corresponding people to counter it, and will not suddenly make trouble.

This is the case for the third and fourth grades, and the fifth and sixth grades are naturally the same. There will definitely be corresponding people to protect them.

An assassin who can really hide all the breath should not be much stronger than Li Qi.

It should be...

What else can I think?

If there are really five or six grades sneaking in, it can't be stopped.

I can only comfort myself like this.

After deciding what to do, the next thing should be done step by step.

Soon, the real people from Wushen Mountain came.

It was not just one person, but a whole caravan.

A fifth-rank leader led a dozen followers, and a team of blue birds drove a very luxurious vehicle, slowly descending from the sky.

The fifth-rank leader was in front, with a calm face, dressed and looked very ordinary, just like a passerby on the street, without any master style.

The dozen followers behind him were all seventh-rank, but they should not be disciples of Wushen Mountain. Li Qi could see that these people practiced different methods, and some of them were not even in the Wu Dao.

Perhaps these followers had other origins.

The vehicle looked very luxurious, with carved dragons and painted phoenixes, nine levels of red steps, and patterns on it, with the moon rippling in the river and the shadows of willows in the wind.

But that was it, the rest looked the same as the vehicles in the mortal world, nothing special.

The blue birds pulling the car in front were all eighth-rank.

"Young Master Qi, please get in the car, go back to the mountain, take a rest, we will go to Tang Kingdom." The fifth-rank official stepped forward and bowed to Li Qi with a respectful attitude.

Li Qi immediately returned the greeting without any slackness.

Facing a senior who is stronger than himself, even if his status is a little special, he cannot be arrogant.

So, he greeted the other followers one by one.

Most of these followers were terrified, calling him Young Master, and some of the timid ones even knelt down.

It is obvious that their cultivation is higher than Li Qi.

Li Qi felt that he could not bear it, so he hurriedly supported them, which made them relax a little.

As for those blue birds, although their cultivation was eight-grade, they were all livestock. Although their cultivation was high, they had no intelligence and were just beasts.

Li Qi carried the old horse and got into the carriage.

This behavior made the followers look sideways frequently, but no one dared to say anything.

The fifth-grade great man was calm, opened the door for Li Qi, and then sat in.

After entering, I found that it was...

Really ordinary.

It was so ordinary that Li Qi thought there would be a different world or something, but it was actually just a car, and it looked the same inside as it did outside.

Putting the sleepy old horse in, it was even a little crowded...

Very simple.

Li Qi and Shen Shuibi sat together, with the old horse on the aisle in front of them.

The fifth-grade sat opposite, smiling, and looked like a kind uncle.

He didn't seem to care at all. After sitting in, he lightly tapped his hand, and saw the convoy fly up.

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?"

"What you said is right, senior." Li Qi answered honestly.

The fifth-rank official laughed and said: "This is really rare. Generally speaking, the young masters will grow up in the mountain gate until they enter the rank before going down the mountain to travel, go to various small worlds, and exercise themselves."

"He has been walking outside since the beginning, and he has cultivated to the eighth rank before returning to the mountain for the first time. This is the first time I have encountered it."

"Hehe..." Li Qi laughed awkwardly and didn't say much.

What else can I do?

"The Great Witch has already told me that Young Master Qi has never returned to the mountain. I am afraid that he is not very comfortable with it. I will ask you to go to his cave as soon as you arrive. If you don't like it on the way, it depends on your mood to deal with it." The fifth-rank official said slowly.

"Senior, what do you mean by 'unlikeable'?" Li Qi was still thinking about the attack he had just encountered. Suddenly, he heard this and stopped thinking and turned his attention here.

What does unlikeable mean?

"It means that if someone else blocks the road to challenge or provoke, Master Qi can deal with it on his own. He won't take action, but he will cover for you. Don't be afraid if something goes wrong." The fifth-rank replied with a smile.

Li Qi wiped his sweat and didn't continue to speak.

Forget it, there are still external forces making trouble now. The most urgent thing is to tell the teacher about the matter and hand over the trouble.

Then rush to Tang State to bridge the gap between the two sides and calm the dispute.

As for someone blocking the road...

Forget it, there is no hatred or resentment, why bother?

Li Qi simply changed the subject and said to the fifth-rank: "Senior, can we take a detour and go to Shewei County in Dalu Kingdom."

"Well? As long as the young master is happy, it's just an hour or two anyway." He didn't stop him.

Then, the carriage fell silent.

One or two hours later, the car passed Dalu Kingdom and Shewei County in Baishezhou.

But a golden line was seen descending and landing in the county magistrate's mansion.

Then, the car left quietly, and no one noticed that something had come.

But suddenly, the county magistrate of Shewei County was in the middle of a banquet, but he suddenly died. Except for a blood spot on his head, there was no other injury on his body.

"Why?" The fifth-rank suddenly asked.

He had been silent since Li Qi shut up on the road, but after Li Qi started, he began to ask the reason.

Li Qi replied politely: "I had some conflicts with him because of helping others in the past, and I escaped from his hands. At that time, I said I would come back."

"Oh." He just nodded and said nothing.

Then, the car outside was getting faster and faster.

I don't know what those blue birds and followers are here for. They seem to be standing by and making a show.

When the car was driving, there was a layer of air cover outside, isolating the inside and the outside, so it didn't matter where you stood, as if their mission was really just to "look good".

What a waste.

The car accelerated and flew directly into the sky.

Li Qi watched the car pass through the clouds with his own eyes.

Above the clouds, there was a violent gale.

When the gale came, there was a sound of turning wheels.

Thunder and fire intertwined, and clouds and fog were generated.

The sky was full of air, blowing the right wheel from the left.

The sun was scorching, covering the forest.

Nine faint smokes flew, and suddenly the sea spread across and came to the gale layer. Li Qi suddenly saw countless people, as if they were all on the way here.

There were many practitioners, who could not be seen on the ground, but when they came to the gale layer, their number suddenly increased.

On the gale layer, there were countless attics, standing in the wind, and countless escape lights shuttled through them.

There were also many giant beasts, each of which was several miles long, like boats, floating in the gale.

There were more, small cars and boats like Li Qi, each with different characteristics, going back and forth in the gale layer, and they should all be single people.

This... How come I have never seen it before?

Shen Shuibi looked used to it, she should have known it long ago.

No wonder we don't see cultivators rushing on the road, it turns out they are all in the strong wind above the clouds, if the cultivation is lower than the eighth level, they can't get in at all.

However, Li Qi's car seemed to have some kind of mark, just arrived here, saw hundreds of giant beasts turn around, many attics were driven by magic to make way, countless cultivators stood still, and those who were far away began to flee.

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 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!
