Chapter 64
On the giant battleship, the giant figures of all parties watching the slaughter on the shore were all guessing what realm the Spring-Gushing junior with several artifacts on his body was, and what his background was.
"Killing so many seven-spring martial artists and top-hundred martial artists in one night, and breaking through the Sui River in a desperate situation of heavy encirclement, I ask myself that in the Spring-Gushing Realm, I definitely couldn't do it. This kid has become famous in one battle tonight!" Shi Jiuzhai exclaimed.
The man surnamed Long still stood at the bow of the ship, as if he had taken root there, and said faintly: "There is never a shortage of geniuses in this world, but geniuses with such fighting will and combat wisdom are very rare. Once he breaks into the Five Seas..."
Shi Jiuzhai looked at Li Ling’s face, which was as cold as frost, and asked: "What is his name?"
"Why doesn't Dharma King Jiuzhai ask the Great Zen Master?"
Li Ling naturally did not have a good face for Shi Jiuzhai; if it weren't for him and the white-clothed lay Buddhist stopping her, how could that Spring-Gushing boy have captured Yang Yun in front of her and escaped?
If we are to lose face, let's lose face together.
The kill order was posted at your Five Burials Temple.
Great Zen Master Yuzhen smiled indifferently: "Haha, it is common to fail in killing; it's just a Spring-Gushing, Eldest Miss Yang, don't take it too seriously. The two Five Seas Realm people of the Changlin Gang have already gone to chase, and they will definitely be able to rescue your brother."
Others' own brothers had been captured, so the white-clothed lay Buddhist and Shi Jiuzhai naturally could not stop them anymore, and each sent one person to rescue.
Li Ling’s state of mind had recovered from her initial anger, and she said calmly: "Yang Yun is a hero of the eight springs, a direct descendant of the Yang Clan, and with so many experts surrounding and intercepting him, he was instead captured by an unknown person; even if he dies, it can only be blamed on his eyes being higher than his hands, and no one can be blamed, right, Senior An, Dharma King Jiuzhai?"
Yang Yun had been captured, his life or death unknown, but at this moment, he had instead become a bargaining chip for her to fight for more benefits.
The first negotiation for the division of interests among the four parties officially began.
They could only finalize a rough outline; the ones who truly decided how to divide Lizhou were the real old-generation giants behind them. Of course, that level of meeting meant that the great war had already arrived.
In the end, they decided to be safer and first follow the plan of the old man surnamed Li to investigate the reality of the Nine Li Hidden Gate.
Of course, there was another important reason for temporarily slowing down the war.
That was the great change in Burial Immortal Town.
Since they had already come to Lizhou, how could they not go and find out? Being able to attract all the old-generation figures of Nine Li City to rush over, this opportunity must not be small!
What exactly happened there?
"Roar!"
Accompanied by a tiger roar that shook the entire night sky, Cang Li, who was riding a Zouwu exotic beast like a giant tiger, stood tall, holding a zhang-long silver spear, and rushed out of the city gate of Nine Li City, reaching the distant, protruding Sui River bank.
The giant tiger raised its head and roared, shaking the water waves.
On the giant battleship, doors and windows shook, the Sui flags fluttered, and all objects were trembling.
Great Zen Master Yuzhen said: "The battle in the city seems to be over! Eldest Miss Yang, this time your Yang Clan and the Cang Li tribe have completely torn their faces, right?"
"How is that possible?"
Li Ling smiled: "Our two families have intermarried for generations, and our blood and family ties are strong; how could we tear our faces over a small conflict?"
"Is that so? Why do I see that he has some murderous aura?"
Shi Jiuzhai stared at the distant shore, only to see Cang Li riding the Zouwu exotic beast and stepping on the river, magic Qi overflowing and condensing into a tiger shadow dozens of zhang high, setting off monstrous water waves; that momentum seemed as if it wanted to overturn the entire giant battleship.
"At this juncture, you should not be exposed. I will go and meet this so-called successor of the Nine Li tribe to see if he really has the weight of a successor."
"Whoosh!"
The man surnamed Long’s figure flickered and disappeared on the deck.
The next moment, he had appeared on the water surface dozens of zhang away, stepping on the Sui River and going upstream, magic Qi clouds rising around his body, floating like a handsome immortal, colliding head-on with Cang Li who was riding the Zouwu exotic beast.
All the magic Qi clouds condensed into a huge dragon shadow, emitting a high-pitched dragon roar, winding and rolling forward in the water.
"Rumble!"
Dragon fighting tiger, magic Qi surging, it was as if the Sui River was about to be cut off by the two of them.
The people from Coffin Mountain and the Earth Wolf King Army took the opportunity to leave the giant battleship and disappeared silently into the eternal night.
Li Ling sat beside the artifact bone lamp, her bright eyes gazing at the two people fighting on the river in the distance, her eyes becoming as calm and waveless as they were at the beginning, no emotion could be seen, and no one knew what she was thinking at this moment.
The people and things in this world are true and false, and if they are not seen through by others, it is better to pretend to be seen through.
Shi Chuanyu dragged his injured body onto the giant battleship, fell to his knees at Li Ling’s feet with a "bang," and cried out: "Eldest Miss, this subordinate is incompetent, letting Young Master Yun be captured by the Li thief, I am willing to accept all punishment."
Li Ling took out a Five Seas Pill, threw it on the ground as if it had slipped from her fingers, stood up gracefully, dragged her long light gauze skirt, and walked toward the second floor of the ship building with her white porcelain-like skin and jade body, saying faintly: "You opened eight springs, you are a talent. But after taking this Five Seas Pill, no matter whether you can break through the Five Seas Realm or not, you must bring Yang Yun and Li Youyi back to me... dead or alive."
Shi Chuanyu was overjoyed, hurriedly stuffed the Five Seas Pill into his mouth like a "wolf swallowing a tiger," and then kowtowed "bang, bang": "Swear to kill the Li thief and rescue Young Master Yun."
Yang Yun woke up in his own screams, discovering that his right arm had been twisted off by Li Youyi, and looking around, he saw no one from his side, and immediately realized that he was going to die in the hands of this killing star today.
He regretted it too late, and sadness came from his heart.
He was a direct descendant of the Yang Clan, breaking eight springs at the age of only seventeen, with the hope of becoming a nine-spring Supreme Person. Even if he couldn't break the nine springs, taking the Five Seas Pill would immediately make him a Five Seas Realm powerhouse; how glorious would his future be?
Dying here, he was not reconciled.
"Ah..."
His left arm was also twisted off.
After Yang Yun screamed, he thought of a plan in a hurry and said: "Brother Li... listen to me... killing me won't do you any good... as long as you don't kill me, I can do anything... ah..."
His right leg was broken.
Yang Yun was sweating profusely from the pain, trembling all over, panicked to the extreme, and in his dizziness, he shouted like he was talking nonsense: "I have money... I will give money to buy my life..."
"How much?"
In the darkness, Li Youyi, who had been silent, suddenly asked.
Yang Yun’s spirit was shaken; this trick actually worked, and he hurriedly said: "A lot... I have a lot of money..."
"Give me a number." Li Youyi said.
Yang Yun said: "One hundred... no, ten million silver coins..."
Ten million silver coins is one billion copper coins.
Li Youyi absolutely did not believe that he could take out so much money, so he sneered.
Yang Yun was afraid that Li Youyi would not believe him, and hurriedly said: "I don't have it, but my sister does. Brother Li... believe me, from now on I owe you ten million silver coins, if I can't take it out, I will use... I will use everything I can mortgage to repay... I, Yang Yun, have always kept my word..."
"Good! I remember it, you owe me ten million silver coins and a carriage." Li Youyi said.
Just as Yang Yun felt that Li Youyi was easy to deceive and was happy in his heart, another scream came from his mouth, and his left leg was broken by Li Youyi.
"This way it's much safer, otherwise I would really be worried that you would break the rope and escape."
Li Youyi tied Yang Yun’s limbs to a small boat, took off his own blood-stained clothes, and threw them on him. Then, he cut his wrist, letting the blood flow slowly into the river.
After doing all this, Li Youyi pushed the small boat out and released Yang Yun.
Along with the rushing water, the small boat floated rapidly downstream.
"If the people of the Yang Clan and the Sui Sect find you before your blood runs out, it means your life is not meant to end. Another day, I will definitely go to the Yang Clan to collect the debt."
Li Youyi ignored the curses muttered by Yang Yun on the small boat, plunged into the water, and swam toward the opposite bank of the Sui River.
With Yang Yun’s scent leading the pursuers downstream, Li Youyi had enough time to escape into the Mang Mountain range, hoping to heal his injuries before they tracked him down.
Swimming to the opposite bank, Li Youyi immediately took out a brand-new set of clothes from the Evil Camel Bell, put them on, and rushed into the mountains in the night.
The Mang Mountain range is full of peaks, traversing north and south along the western border of Lizhou, connecting to the Passing Spirit Mist Realm and the Blood Sea in the south, and extending a thousand miles north into Zhizhou.
Legend has it that in this huge and deep mountain range, every mountain peak is an emperor’s tomb.
The Cang King Tomb is one of them.
Fleeing all night, Li Youyi had already entered the depths of the Mang Mountain range.
By the time the sky turned fish-belly white, he finally couldn't hold on, his body softened, and he lay down on the thick fallen leaves of a dense forest; whether it was the severity of his injuries or the exhaustion of his physical strength, both had reached the extreme.
At this moment, he didn't want to think about anything, just wanted to sleep first, no matter if he could wake up or not.
The sun rose.
The first ray of sunlight sprinkled into the dense forest, passed through the branches and leaves, and fell on his face in spots.
It was this instant.
A ray of light actually passed through his body and appeared in his mind, lighting up the darkness inside his skull.
Lying on the ground, Li Youyi, with his eyes closed tightly, muttered: "Day and night alternate, spiritual light flashes, the path of the spiritual god opens. I didn't expect that, if you plant flowers intentionally, they won't bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will shade."
"The more I want to cultivate it, the less the spiritual light appears. Instead, at this moment when I least want to cultivate, the spiritual light appears."
"Perhaps Senior Spirit Tablet is right, when I cultivated in the past, there were too many distracting thoughts in my heart!"
Li Youyi supported his extremely tired and painful body, sat up, and according to the meditation taught by Senior Spirit Tablet, absorbed the brilliance released by the sun... let's call it the sun!
Sunlight is not in rays, but in particles.
Before long, countless light particles wrapped his body, drilling in and out of his body, the brilliance shining, making him, who was sitting cross-legged in the dead branches and fallen leaves, look incomparably vigorous in vitality, and his wounds healing visibly to the naked eye.
Day and night alternate, withered and prosperous change.
At the same time, the Dao Ancestor Taiji Fish hanging on his neck, which he had never known how to activate and catalyze, actually started to run after absorbing those light particles.
The surrounding scene, including the ground under Li Youyi, immediately underwent earth-shaking changes.
