Chapter 142
Cang Li arriving so quickly was very unexpected for Li Li Youyi.
Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo also didn't know where the problem lay; Cang Li was clearly not in the camp. He hurried forward: "Young Clan Head, this matter was done by Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo and has nothing to do with others; I will bear all the punishment and guilt..."
"I know it was you!"
Cang Li's voice echoed in the valley, his gaze shifting to Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo, seeing through at a glance that his cultivation had been restored, a look of contemplation appearing deep in his pupils: "Old Zhao, you can be considered an elder in the clan, having fought for honor for the Cang Li tribe, shed blood and tasted tears; how can you be so confused when it comes to the right and wrong of character?"
Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo didn't know why Li Li Youyi captured Qi Qi Shanshan, but he knew his character and conduct quite well, and was about to refute.
Li Li Youyi spoke first: "Cang Li, do you really not know who she is? If her cultivation, intelligence, and methods weren't extremely dangerous, would I have used such a desperate measure?"
Li Li Youyi didn't dare to duel with Chan Hai Guan Wu, who was hiding in Qi Qi Shanshan's body, in the military camp; the most essential reason was that in there, Qi Qi Shanshan had countless ways to cause his death. Even, without spilling a drop of blood.
If the secret of Chan Hai Guan Wu's return exploded in the military camp, the consequence would be mutual destruction.
Even letting Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo capture her, in Li Li Youyi's view, the probability of him not returning was also very high.
Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo naturally understood the danger, didn't know what Qi Qi Shanshan's trump card was, but knew that Li Li Youyi took a huge risk and paid a massive amount of money to help him restore his cultivation; how could what he wanted to do be simple?
Simple things don't require such great effort, and it wouldn't be his turn to do them.
Cang Li said: "I know who she is, and I know where you come from; she also told me everything that happened on the bronze ship. Li Li Youyi, only by treating people with sincerity will people treat you with sincerity. On the ship, didn't she save you more than once? She is your savior, and your methods, aren't they too dishonorable?"
This didn't seem like something Chan Hai Guan Wu could do!
Li Li Youyi looked at Qi Qi Shanshan, his heart filled with doubts.
Even the secret on the bronze ship was known to Cang Li; it seemed the four words "Chan Hai Guan Wu" were not unmentionable.
He said: "Did she also tell you the secret of Chan Hai Guan Wu's departed soul being parasitic in her body?"
Cang Li obviously didn't know about this, his brows slightly furrowed: "Which Chan Hai Guan Wu?"
"In the Lingxiao Life Realm, is there a second person who dares to call this name?" Li Li Youyi said.
Qi Qi Shanshan moved between the two, annoyed: "Actually, it's just a misunderstanding! Li Youyi, Sister Qi Shanshan can tell you clearly, I don't know if that bone demon is still hiding somewhere in my body; if she were really there, would Cang Li not know? She might have already left!"
Li Li Youyi had to capture Qi Qi Shanshan because he wanted to know if Chan Hai Guan Wu had the ability to leave her body and be exposed to the world.
If she wasn't in Qi Qi Shanshan's body, he would have a locked-on target, and many doubts in his heart could be solved.
Cang Li was naturally extremely wary of the legendary ancient Son of Heaven and said: "I can tell you clearly, any departed soul that dares to be parasitic in Qi Shanshan's body, I will make it vanish into smoke."
"I don't think you can perceive Chan Hai Guan Wu's methods. And I don't think a person who has fallen in love can still be ruthless," Li Li Youyi said.
According to what Chan Hai Guan Wu said on the bronze ship, Li Li Youyi knew deeply that once her cultivation recovered, it would be his death date.
His blood and soul would be devoured completely.
The only chance of survival was to eliminate her before she made a move.
This was a life-and-death duel against time; even if Chan Hai Guan Wu was not strong enough yet, with the ability of an ancient Son of Heaven, that kind of deterrence and sense of crisis was not comparable to any overt enemy.
She wouldn't make a move if she didn't have to, but once she did, Li Li Youyi didn't think his immature methods could escape alive.
Qi Qi Shanshan returned to Cang Li's side: "It's all a misunderstanding caused by that bone demon; Li Li Youyi, a kid who should still be a sophomore in college, what bad intentions could he have? Let it be!"
"Don't you interfere in this matter!"
Cang Li's gaze was fixed on Li Li Youyi, his arm trembling, and the silver spear suddenly erupted with substantial magic power energy, turning into a monstrous water wave that filled the entire canyon, rushing toward Li Li Youyi.
Flying sand and rolling stones, vegetation uprooted.
"If you do something wrong, you must pay the price."
"Clatter!"
Li Li Youyi only felt the scene before his eyes change suddenly, unable to stand steady, as if placed in the vast ocean, giant waves turning the sky, wanting to tear him into pieces.
Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo rushed up at the first moment, but was hit by Cang Li's sleeve from the air, his body hitting the rock wall with a bang.
"Clang!"
Li Li Youyi retreated three steps, stabilized his figure, and without hesitation, pulled out the Huang Long Sword, gripping it tightly in his hand.
The magic power of the Five Seas Realm was poured into the sword.
The Huang Long Sword underwent an unprecedented violent change, with dense scales growing on the brass sword body, and the sound of a dragon roaring inside the sword echoed between the mountains.
"Taiyi Opens the Sea!"
His eyes were sharp, standing in a bow stance, his feet sinking into the ground, and he slashed out with his sword.
"Awoo!"
A bright dragon shadow flew out along with the sword Qi, splitting the overwhelming magic power giant wave in two.
The dragon head appeared concretely, the roaring sound deafening, flying straight toward Cang Li.
Cang Li gave a light 'eh', and a spherical magic power wall flew out from his body, shattering the dragon head.
Although he only wanted to punish him slightly to show a warning and only mobilized a little magic power, it was actually broken, counterattacking to his front, which really exceeded his expectations.
According to what Qi Qi Shanshan said, Li Li Youyi had only cultivated for half a year.
How could this be possible?
Seven miles away from here.
Chen family Dao Seed Realm expert Chen Chen Qianchi felt an unusual magic power fluctuation and heard the dragon roar that followed, immediately stopping his steps and making a gesture.
In the dense forest behind him, the dense 'Iron Cloth Army' of the Three Chen Palace all restrained their aura and slowly lowered their bodies, listening for the next instruction.
"It's Cang Li's magic power fluctuation! The whole army, activate the runes on the Iron Cloth battle clothes together, march in a fog, and sneak over to see," Chen Chen Qianchi said.
This army of theirs was the Shadow Battalion of the Iron Cloth Army, having bypassed the Burial Immortal Town from the other side of the Long Mountain range. They were preparing to ambush in the dense forest outside Yao Guan City and launch a surprise attack at a critical moment.
As countless runes lit up in the forest, the power of the runes resonated mysteriously, and all the soldiers disappeared strangely in the forest, turning into a shallow fog that made no sound and emitted no aura, spreading toward the canyon.
Li Li Youyi didn't expect that after reaching the Five Seas Realm, activating the Huang Long Sword would have such explosive power, stronger than the attacks of the Evil Camel Bell and the Black Iron Seal.
"Cang Li, if you are so conceited and don't believe my words, be careful not to lead the Li family into a situation of eternal doom. Even if Chan Hai Guan Wu is not in her body, traces can definitely be found on her. You had better tell your father, or your mother, about this matter."
Li Li Youyi advised him this, preparing to leave, even if he died at the hands of Chan Hai Guan Wu in the future, he could only accept it.
Who told him to be inferior in skill today?
"Old Zhao, let's go!"
"Clatter, clatter!"
Heavy hoofbeats and the thick aura of exotic beasts came from the canyon in the direction of Yao Guan City.
Accompanied by the pleasant and melodious sound of wind chimes, the giant exotic beast figure broke the trees blocking the way and appeared before everyone.
It was Cang Li's mount.
The Zouwu beast that looked like a white tiger!
Its eyes released bright brilliance, its body was so huge it was like a moving house, and every step it took caused the ground to tremble slightly.
"You should believe him! He has never been a reckless person; if it weren't for the pressure I brought him being too great, how could he have taken such a desperate risk?"
Li Ling stood on the head of the Zouwu exotic beast, her legs long and straight, stepping on the character 'King', wearing a bright red dress inside, armor outside, white bone wind chimes hanging from her waist, and her hair, which was emitting Dao light and immortal mist, flying in the air; the whole person was a master-of-the-world ancient Son of Heaven aura.
The Zouwu beast was originally fierce and noble in blood, but at this moment, it was so suppressed that it didn't even dare to roar.
The flower mark on her brow flickered, her eyes having both an aggressive, disdainful look and a deep, unfathomable mystery.
She had Li Ling's appearance.
But everyone knew that she was definitely not Li Ling at this moment.
"Could it really be Chan Hai Guan Wu?"
Zhao Zhao Zhizhuo struggled out of the cliff, full of shock.
Previously, Li Li Youyi mentioned Chan Hai Guan Wu many times; let alone Cang Li not believing it, even he, the person who trusted Li Li Youyi the most, didn't believe it, feeling that Li Li Youyi must have misjudged this time.
Until this moment...
He was almost suppressed by the aura emitted by Li Ling to the point of kneeling and kowtowing, and finally believed it.
"Sure enough."
Li Li Youyi stared at the approaching "Li Ling", having long had this thought in his heart, and finally felt enlightened at this moment. All the strange things in the past had reasonable explanations.
But "Li Ling" coming so blatantly meant she was showing her cards, indicating she was full of confidence.
This was a big problem!
How could Cang Li have thought that a departed soul was really parasitic in his own family?
He didn't care who this departed soul was, whether it was Chan Hai Guan Wu or an ancient Son of Heaven, it was a capital crime.
Cang Li's eyes erupted with intense killing intent, raising his silver spear high, and a low, high-pitched tiger roar sounded in his body...
The ancient Son of Heaven's momentum in "Li Ling's" body rushed over, suppressing him to the point where he couldn't release the Bai Hu battle intent, his figure retreating repeatedly. Chan Hai Guan Wu seemed to want to use her gaze to crush his mental will.
Cang Li was at the center of the storm, gritting his teeth, supporting his body with the silver spear, so he didn't kneel down.
He knew that the other party was just a departed soul, and her real cultivation would never be too strong; as long as he broke through the Son of Heaven's pressure contained in her remnant soul, he would certainly be able to fight her.
Even defeat her.
Li Li Youyi saw that Cang Li couldn't even make a move under the pressure of Chan Hai Guan Wu's ancient Son of Heaven aura, and his heart plummeted to the bottom. He secretly hated that he had attacked Qi Qi Shanshan too late; if he had attacked earlier, he would have already locked onto Chan Hai Guan Wu's true body, and wouldn't have raised a female demon that he couldn't confront at all.
"Clatter, clatter!"
The Zouwu exotic beast stepped in front of everyone.
Li Ling's gaze fell on Li Li Youyi, continuing her previous words, her tone faint: "But there is indeed a not-so-small misunderstanding between us, and we don't trust each other, which has caused the current situation. Li Li Youyi, if I wanted to kill you, I've had more than ten chances; do you admit it?"
