"boom!"
The thin middle-aged man had his acupoints sealed by Jing Tailai and fell two feet away from Dugu Shuming.
His face became paler and paler, and he stared straight in the direction of the water pavilion.
Jing Tailai glanced quickly at the water pavilion and immediately looked away.
He knew that Li Chengkong was the one in the water pavilion, and it had to be kept secret. Once it was leaked, the princess's mansion would be in big trouble.
Dugu Shuming snorted at the thin middle-aged man, "When did your Grandmaster's Mansion become so powerful that you can monitor my mansion? I want to ask my father if this was an order from him!"
Even though the skinny middle-aged man was lying on the ground in a mess, he still had a calm demeanor, neither humble nor arrogant: "Your Highness has misunderstood, I am just on routine patrol, not monitoring the Princess's residence."
"Patrol into my princess's mansion?" Dugu Shuming said coldly: "Do you believe your own nonsense?"
"Everything I said is true. Your Highness can go to the Grandmaster's Mansion to verify it." The thin middle-aged man said calmly: "If it is false, feel free to punish me!"
Dugu Shuming stared at him coldly.
The thin middle-aged man said, "Your Highness, there are time limits for my patrol routes. Once the time is up, the Grandmaster's Mansion will definitely search for me."
"Don't worry, I won't kill you! But you were sneaky, so you deserve this knife!"
"I didn't expect there is such a master in the princess's mansion." The thin middle-aged man said calmly: "I wonder if I can meet him?"
This knife is so shocking.
He thought to himself that even if it happened again, he would not be able to dodge the knife even if he was prepared, which further confirmed the Grandmaster's guess.
It is most likely Li Chengkong!
It is very likely that Li Chengkong faked his death and escaped.
Dugu Shuming said calmly: "Throw him out of the house!"
"Yes." Jing Tailai stepped forward, picked up the thin middle-aged man and left.
"Li Chengkong!" The thin middle-aged man shouted towards the waterside pavilion: "As a master, hiding and hiding is not a joke?!"
Dugu Shuming waved his hand.
Jing Tailai quickened his pace.
The thin middle-aged man was more and more certain that the person hiding in the waterside pavilion was Li Chengkong, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness! You must think carefully, is it worth it to go against the emperor for a eunuch who grows vegetables in the Xiaoling Mausoleum!"
"Jing Tailai, break his limbs and throw him out!"
"...Yes!" Jing Tailai groaned inwardly.
This is the Grandmaster of the Grandmaster's Mansion. If he really does this, he will be breaking off relations with the Grandmaster's Mansion.
This is really unwise.
The Grandmaster's Mansion has a transcendent status and a small population, but it is the ultimate deterrent force and should not be offended.
Dugu Shuming frowned: "Hmm——?"
"...Yes!" Jing Tailai felt his scalp tingling when she glared at him. He looked around and saw that Su Ru was not there, so there was no one who could persuade the princess.
The skinny middle-aged man shouted, "Li Chengkong, I know it's you, come out, you can't escape, you can still survive if you follow me now, otherwise, if you provoke the Wind Chaser, you will surely die without a burial place!"
Dugu Shuming said calmly: "Why don't you seal his mouth first?"
Jing Tailai hurriedly sealed the mute acupoint of the thin middle-aged man.
Dugu Shuming's tone became even more indifferent: "Break his limbs and throw him at the door. If he dawdles any more, pack up your things and get out!"
Jing Tailai clasped his fists bitterly and gently pressed on the thin middle-aged limbs.
"Crack!" The left arm fell off.
"Crack!" The right arm fell down.
"Crack!" The left leg was dislocated.
"Crack!" The right leg was dislocated.
He had shown mercy and didn't smash his elbows and knees, otherwise, even if they were healed, they wouldn't be able to recover as before.
Dugu Shuming waved his hand.
Jing Tailai carried the thin middle-aged man away.
Dugu Shuming then entered the water pavilion and opened the window.
Fresh air mixed with moisture blew in. Li Chengkong sat on the couch, took a deep breath and smiled.
He was very satisfied with that cut.
Such power is due to the purity of his inner strength and strong spirit in the Great Light Realm, as well as his astonishing divine power.
Pure strength is the key to increasing the speed of the flying knife.
Without this divine power, the power of the flying knife would be reduced by at least half, and it would not be so easy to hit the target. After all, the thin middle-aged man was also in the Great Light Realm, and his accumulation of knowledge was much deeper than his own.
Li Chengkong said: "Your Highness, do you really want to tear your face off with the Grandmaster's Mansion?"
Dugu Shuming said calmly: "Only the old villain Yan Kuan can embarrass me, but I can't embarrass him?"
"It's no good to offend the Grandmaster's Mansion."
"Does he dare to deal with me?" Dugu Shuming didn't care: "The old thief Yan Kuan is cunning and suspicious. He hit you with a palm and even suspected that you faked your death."
"They are all as cunning as monkeys... I should go, Your Highness." Li Chengkong said.
At this level, no one is a fool. He didn't expect to hide the truth completely, he just wanted to get a chance to catch his breath.
With his original cultivation level, he would surely die if he resisted. But now, he finally has a glimmer of hope and may not be able to escape the Wind Chaser.
"where to?"
“The world is so big, there is always somewhere to go.”
"You don't want revenge?"
"There is no rush for revenge. I am still weak and powerless."
I have a supercomputer, Yitian, and my idea has always been to practice hard first, until I become invincible in one breath, and then I can go out and roam freely.
It's not like the novels I read in my previous life where you fight and get stronger at the same time, which requires too much luck and is too easy to die.
How could it be such a coincidence? When your martial arts skills are not strong, the enemies you encounter are not that strong. When your martial arts skills are strong, the enemies you encounter are strong?
That's just a novel. In reality, you often run into an enemy who is several levels stronger than you and kills you.
My martial arts skills are not strong enough, and seeking revenge now would be like walking into a trap and committing suicide.
"Alas...I am such a coward as a princess!"
She couldn't control those officials.
They seemed respectful, but in fact they didn't take her seriously at all. They blatantly ignored her orders under the banner of the emperor.
Li Chengkong got up from the bed and took out a black bead from his arms, which was similar to a Buddhist rosary, and handed it to Dugu Shuming: "Leave this as a souvenir for Your Highness. If you crush this bead, I will come as soon as possible."
This was made by him in the Tianyin Cave. It contains a trace of his spirit and was refined based on a small method in ancient books.
It doesn't have much power, it just seals the internal force of the Tianyin Heart Sutra inside, and it can be sensed through the Tianyin Cave, just like sensing Qin Tiannan.
Dugu Shuming took the bead, looked at it for a few seconds, then looked up at him in surprise.
She knew that Li Chengkong's arms were empty before, with neither the flying knife nor the black bead.
So where did these come from, especially the flying knife just now, where did it come from?
Li Chengkong had no intention of clearing up her confusion, and clasped his fists: "Take care, Your Highness, and see you later!"
He floated out of the water pavilion and his figure disappeared in the corridor.
The next moment he appeared in a small pavilion thirty feet away, then appeared in another small pavilion, then flashed again and disappeared over the lake, completely out of her sight.
Jing Tailai happened to come back and saw Li Chengkong's figure by the lake, but he could not see Li Chengkong's face clearly, as if an invisible force blocked his sight. This is the magic of the Tianyin Heart Technique.
But he guessed it was Li Chengkong.
…
In a hall of the Grandmaster's Mansion, Yan Kuan was sitting in a throne-like chair, with two rows of chairs below him, with eleven seats in each row.
At this time, there were four old men with white beards and eyebrows sitting there.
Yan Kuan looked at the skinny middle-aged man's injuries, his face solemn, he stroked his beard and said slowly: "It seems that Princess Qingming is very resentful."
"The Palace Master had previously offended Princess Qingming. Given Princess Qingming's temper, it's not surprising that she did this."
"So what do you think of this knife?"
"sharp!"
The four old men all stroked their beards and frowned.
They all felt awe-inspiring.
I might not be able to dodge this knife. If it was really shot by Li Chengkong, then it would be a big trouble.
"Is it Li Chengkong?" Yan Kuan asked.
The four old men pondered.
"It is said that Song Wuji's flying knife is extremely powerful. After he was killed by Xiaoling Guards, it is possible that the secret book of flying knife fell into the hands of Li Chengkong."
"Okay!" Yan Kuang stood up fiercely and said in a deep voice, "In this case, this government will report to the emperor and send out the Wind Chaser to hunt him down!"
