Chapter 654

Although the Northern Wilderness warriors were beaten away, everyone understood through this incident that Merchant Xiu Xiang had encountered unimaginable danger; otherwise, he wouldn't have been unable to even protect his own home.

"Dayi, thank you for your help. Because of you, we were able to avoid this disaster." The servants, guards, and guests of Xiu Xiang's house gathered together at this moment and came to Li Yi's side, expressing their gratitude sincerely.

Li Yi said, "Merchant Xiu Xiang is in trouble. Although I don't know what great crime he committed, it must be ominous. I need to find someone to ask about the reason for this matter, so I can't take care of you for a period of time. You'd better take this opportunity to temporarily leave the Northern Wilderness City to avoid it, and return after Xiu Xiang safely returns."

"If it really doesn't work, just run for your lives. If Xiu Xiang asks in the future, just say it's my meaning."

He looked at these people and gave his advice.

"Dayi, you can help my master. We cannot repay such grace. But please rest assured, Dayi, we will definitely not drag you down, nor will we add trouble to my master."

A guest promised with certainty.

And as his words finished, he immediately raised the big knife in his hand and slashed at the person next to him.

In just a few seconds, several beautiful concubines and several servants were beheaded and died on the spot.

This guest then raised the blood-stained big knife and said, "The master is humiliated, the slave dies. We cannot do anything for the master, but we cannot let the master and the distinguished guest worry about our lowly lives. Rather than living with humiliation, let us offer our lives now."

Saying that, he swung his knife again to slash at others.

Others saw this with grief and indignation, didn't hide or dodge, and let this loyal guest cut off their heads.

Other guards saw this and felt it made sense, and they also moved to kill the people around them.

In just a moment, these people in Xiu Xiang's house were almost dead, and afterwards these guards cut off their own heads and offered their lives, unwilling to let themselves become a burden.

Soon.

Xiu Xiang's house, which had become a ruin, was left with only dozens of corpses, and no one survived.

Seeing this, Li Yi's eyes showed a complex color. He didn't stop it, because he respected the choice of these people. Dying for the master might be the best choice for them at present.

E Ji and Su Ji looked at the corpses all over the ground, their eyes showing a hint of sadness, because several of the beautiful concubines were once their friends, and several servants had also taken care of them.

But now they had become cold corpses.

Li Yi didn't have too much emotion. He just opened his mouth and spat, operating the Qi of Heart Fire, turning into a raging fire that swept the whole field, completely burning these corpses to ashes and dissipating.

People were already dead, and corpses couldn't be left here to rot. Cremation was the best choice.

And Xiu Xiang's damaged house, Li Yi also performed the House Building Technique again to restore it as before. This could be considered a small effort.

Although the house was empty, it at least preserved some of Xiu Xiang's family property, which might become capital for a comeback in the future.

"Let's go, go back to our residence." Li Yi said afterwards.

The remaining few nodded and followed Li Yi away from here.

Soon, they came to their new home.

Although it was not far away, there was clearly a feeling of being out of place with the Northern Wilderness City. The architectural style and layout here were exquisite and practical, and even contained some trends of mountains and rivers.

Seeing Li Yi return safely, the Prisoner Ox ran over, its huge body making the ground tremble slightly.

"A descendant of a true dragon, this is a dragon species." High Priest Dou Kun nodded slightly, recognizing the potential of this Prisoner Ox.

Li Yi said at this moment, "High Priest, everything at home is left to you. I am going to try to save Xiu Xiang. Although the time I spent with him was short, I received his grace, and now it is time to repay it."

"Master, please rest assured, I will definitely take care of everything here." High Priest Dou Kun said solemnly at this moment.

Li Yi nodded, and then left some red gold to Dou Kun, letting him be responsible for expenses. After all, it was impossible to raise so many people without money.

"Master, where are you going? Do you need me to accompany you?" At this moment, Shan Guo walked over and said, "Although I can't help much, I can do some trivial things for you."

Li Yi said, "Long Yu is injured and unconscious. You stay here to take care of him. E Ji and Su Ji are not even warriors and cannot handle many jobs. I will go out alone. If there is danger, the Prisoner Ox will handle it."

"If even the Prisoner Ox cannot guard this home, then you run for your lives. Don't commit suicide for me."

After explaining some things, he walked away with big strides.

Shan Guo looked in the direction Li Yi left, and a hint of worry appeared in her eyes for no reason.

High Priest Dou Kun on the side said, "Trust our master. He is a powerful God-Blood Warrior. He can overcome any danger and difficulty. This is something he must experience in his growth. In the future, he will definitely become a god of one side."

"Yes, the master is a god of one side in the future. No danger or difficulty can defeat him." E Ji and Su Ji nodded deeply, firmly believing what the High Priest said.

Seeing this, the worry in Shan Guo's heart gradually dissipated, finally turning into a firm belief.

Dayi might be the last bloodline of the deity guarded by the ancestors in this world. Before becoming a god of one side, it was absolutely impossible to encounter an accident.

Li Yi, who walked out of the house, was still having a headache about how to save Xiu Xiang.

He was unfamiliar with the place here and was completely blind. Originally, he thought about staying in Xiu Xiang's house quietly, eating and drinking, and spending his transformation period steadily, but he didn't expect to encounter such a thing.

"Go find that Nv Heng, maybe she has a way."

Li Yi thought about it, and only this person could help him.

Soon.

He found Nv Heng's residence.

This was a huge and exquisite mansion, with various mountain flowers planted inside, and many jewels inlaid on the houses. Although it was colorful and not beautiful, in this simple savage world, color represented wealth and nobility.

"I am Dayi, I want to see your master Nv Heng, I hope you can report it." Li Yi said to the two guards at the gate.

These two guards knew Li Yi, because they were present when Li Yi bought the residence before, and immediately said, "Distinguished God-Blood Warrior, please wait a moment, I will inform my master of your visit."

Li Yi nodded.

After a while, a young and beautiful woman immediately welcomed him out: "Distinguished guest, my master Nv Heng invites you."

It seemed that Nv Heng didn't refuse Li Yi's visit.

Soon.

Li Yi was led by this maid to a flower garden full of mountain flowers.

In the middle of this flower garden was a small house. Merchant Nv Heng was sitting in the house at this moment, preparing fine wine, exotic fruits, and exotic beast meat to entertain the distinguished guest who was about to arrive.

"Master, the distinguished guest is here." The leading beautiful concubine said respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Nv Heng stood up and said with a smile, "Dayi, I didn't expect us to meet again so soon. Please take a seat and taste the fine wine I specially prepared for you. This fine wine is brewed from exotic fruits collected from the whole mountain by the exotic beast Zhu Yan in the big mountain. One jar is worth a hundred gold, and it is a rare treasure."

Li Yi smelled the alluring wine fragrance and didn't decline. He picked up a cup and drank it in one gulp, not afraid of being poisoned.

Afterwards, he felt a surging energy escaping from his abdomen to all parts of his body. His soul felt extremely happy at this moment, all the pores on his body opened, and a strange fragrance was emitted.

Nv Heng smelled the strange fragrance emitted from Li Yi's body and felt a little surprised.

You know, after others drank wine, what was emitted from their bodies was a foul smell, and even she was like this at the beginning. It was only after drinking a cup of wine every day that the foul smell dissipated, and finally there was the fragrance of a hundred flowers.

"Dayi, you are different from other God-Blood Warriors. You are unique." Nv Heng then said with a smile.

Li Yi put down the wine glass and didn't answer, but said, "Merchant, you are a wise woman. You should know what I am here for this time."

Nv Heng said, "Xiu Xiang killed another merchant in the Northern Wilderness City. He violated the prohibition of the Northern Wilderness City. It was the City Lord who personally gave the order to let the Northern Wilderness warriors capture him, and even the servants and beautiful concubines in his house were to be executed."

"Fortunately, Xiu Xiang's wife and children are not in the Northern Wilderness City. After all, as a busy merchant, he wouldn't have only one place of residence."

Li Yi said, "I don't care what Xiu Xiang did. I only care about whether his life can be saved."

Nv Heng said, "Dayi, even if you are a God-Blood Warrior, this matter is very difficult to handle. And as a merchant, I don't want to help you fight against a master of one side."

"I didn't ask you to help me deal with a master of one side, as long as the merchant can leave the Northern Wilderness City alive." Li Yi said, "I believe you can do this."

"Saving Xiu Xiang requires a price. I don't know how much price you can pay, Dayi." Nv Heng poured another cup of fine wine for Li Yi.

Under the amber fine wine, there was steaming mist, and the fragrance was permeating.

Li Yi looked down and raised his wine glass: "Just as I said before, the most precious thing in the world is life. If you are willing to help me, I can pass on the method of immortality."

The method of immortality he spoke of referred to the cultivation method.

If Nv Heng could cultivate to the point of becoming an immortal, she would naturally be immortal.

Immortal?

As soon as these words came out, even Nv Heng, who was always calm, showed a shocked expression.

In the savage world, only a god of one side can be immortal. Others, no matter how strong the warrior, have a day of death.

And she, as a merchant, had neither the potential to become a god of one side nor was she a powerful warrior. Death had been waiting for her arrival on some day.

Now, hearing the method of immortality from Dayi's mouth made her at a loss for a while.

"The method of immortality? Dayi, are your words true?" However, after calming down a little, Nv Heng's first reaction was to doubt the truth of the words.

Li Yi didn't speak, but took out something like a compass from the Five Elements Bracelet.

"This is a Life Compass, which can test the length of your life. If the merchant doesn't believe it, why not try it yourself?"

Speaking of this Life Compass, it was a rare thing obtained in the Four Seas and Eight Continents.

Although it had no other use except for detecting life, it was still worth collecting.
