Chapter 162: The Tragic Leader (3)
When the leader of the Paradise Palace disguised herself as a female ghost and slowly invaded the Immortal Residence, Bai Changkong was on the top floor of the small building, looking coldly at the movements of the Survey Office and the Immortal Residence.
The patrolling soldiers nearby, as well as the imperial guards and city defense troops in charge of patrolling, were all transferred away.
With Bai Changkong's current reputation, he can ensure that no one from the dozen or so nearby neighborhoods will appear tonight. Even the night watchman will not pass by this area.
He saw with his own eyes that the leader of the Paradise Palace walked slowly into the Immortal Residence.
Wisps of pink mist spread in all directions, filled with a strange fragrance. Wherever the leader of the Paradise Palace passed, a dozen soldiers guarding the gate of the Immortal Residence, servants and maids who were busy in the yard, fell to the ground one after another.
Soon, the servants, maids, and others who had fallen down in their coma became pale and hot in the face. They had no idea what had happened in their dreams, and they clamped their legs tightly together, twisting and twitching their bodies.
Soon, the servants and maids were sweating all over, and the blood in their bodies was slowly being smoked by the inexplicable evil fire. A trace of essence seeped out from their pores and merged into the ambiguous pink mist around them.
The range covered by the mist expanded rapidly, and finally the entire Xianren Residence was covered by pink mist.
"The fragrance of heaven!" Bai Changkong exclaimed in a low voice: "The magical power of the immortal way is really not comparable to the practice of martial arts."
After praising him for a few times, Bai Changkong frowned again: "Lang'er and his friends were accompanied by the inner sect disciples of the Paradise Palace. In the letter they sent back, it said that more than a dozen disciples attacked and killed Lu Yi, but they were actually dealt with?"
"Well, I guess they were surrounded by a large army? After all, the leader also said that those inner sect disciples sent out as guards were only ordinary in cultivation... They were called inner sect disciples, but in fact they were the leader's spare furnaces when he traveled, and they were used to replenish his mana consumption at any time."
"Lu Yu, you're dead!"
"If you offend this old man, you will be punished by death."
"You even killed a true disciple of the Paradise Palace. Hehe, you were in Anping Pass, and the leader was too lazy to travel thousands of miles to find you, but you actually took the initiative to run back. That... this is fate, you have to accept it!"
Dozens of girls wearing black tight leather armor, with only their eyes exposed, quietly climbed up the stairs and stood behind Bai Changkong.
Bai Changkong fiercely glanced in the direction of Xianrenju, and nodded slightly to the girls behind him: "Thank you, senior sisters, for slaughtering the Yushunfang Investigation Office... Kill the others if you can, but Li Erya must die!"
Bai Changkong smiled happily.
Pretending to be a haunted female ghost, she killed Lu Yi and Li Erya, and the last trace of Bai Lu's hand was completely wiped out.
Li Erya died in the Investigation Office. If Li Zi wanted to cause trouble, he could only go to the Palace Guardian.
I guess Li Zi doesn't have the heart to care about Bai Lu, his new daughter-in-law anymore.
When the rumors died down a bit, Bai Changkong announced to the public that "Bai Lu was too sad about Li Erya's death and died of a sudden illness." He could also use Bai Lu's "chastity and strong character" to greatly enhance the reputation of the Bai family!
With fame, Bai Changkong would naturally become the principal of the Imperial College.
"This is the Qingyun Avenue." Bai Changkong sighed faintly: "What a pity, Wei Shuang is unlucky. If she could really marry Prince Zhu, wouldn't it be wonderful?"
"However, now I am a disciple of the Immortal Sect, with longevity and immortality in sight. Zhu is nothing more than a mortal rolling in the world of mortals. When I have achieved success in my cultivation, I will just wipe them out with one palm."
After sighing for an inexplicable moment, Bai Changkong waved towards the headquarters of the Survey Office. Dozens of girls wearing black soft armor silently jumped down from the top floor, like a group of ghosts, passing through the backyard, crossing the street, and breaking into the Survey Office.
The same pink mist was everywhere, and wherever it passed, one gecko after another fell to the ground unconscious.
Bai Changkong stood with his hands behind his back, looking down at the two courtyards across the street shrouded in mist, and muttered in a low voice: "Fighting for luck? Repairing the spirit of heaven and earth? What kind of logic is this?"
Shaking his head, Bai Changkong also jumped down and followed the group of girls into the Investigation Office.
Bai Changkong is a polite person. Li Erya is about to die, so why not send him off in person?
In the backyard of the Yushunfang Survey Office, beside a stream, there is an exquisite study.
In a small pavilion by the water, Li Zi and his son Li Erya sat cross-legged on two cushions facing each other. Li Zi was looking at his precious son with a smile on his face, while Li Erya's chest and abdomen were slightly rising and falling, and his breathing was long. One inhalation and one exhalation was equivalent to thirty breaths for an ordinary person.
When Lu Yi led his army to war, Li Zi often came to visit Li Erya.
According to Li Zi's original intention, he wanted to bring Li Erya back home.
Now he has the confidence to the point of not even taking the Palace Guardian seriously - even the Palace Guardian's male supervisor, Yu Changle, is nothing more than an ant that can be killed with a flick of the hand in Li Zi's eyes.
However, when Li Zi came to visit Li Erya for the first time, he suddenly discovered that Lu Yi's backyard seemed to have very good feng shui. After Li Zi came in, he could feel a slight vibration of the Qiqiao energy in his body within a breath.
He tried to enter into meditation again in Li Erya's study, and he was pleasantly surprised to find that the speed of practicing in Lu Yi's backyard was more than ten times that in his own garden!
Li Zi was reluctant to leave such a Feng Shui treasure land.
These days, he comes to visit Li Erya almost every day and stays here at night.
Li Zi originally thought that since the spiritual energy of heaven and earth had been cut off, cultivation was a hopeless thing. Even if one cultivated to the extreme, he would only be at the level of Pixue Realm and would only live for 150 years.
Martial arts training is hard and arduous, but it doesn't have much meaning.
But now the spiritual energy of heaven and earth showed signs of revival, and he had actually cultivated the secret magical power of the Qiqiao Pavilion, and the Yuan Gang in his body was transforming into a higher level of magical power.
This is not just an improvement in strength, but also unlimited possibilities in terms of longevity.
In the past, Li Zi doted on Li Erya, thinking that if his beloved son didn't like martial arts, then he didn't like martial arts? Anyway, even if you work hard to cultivate to the Pixue Realm, how many more years can you live? Moreover, he didn't think that if his beloved son could cultivate to the Pixue Realm, it would be difficult for him to cultivate to the Tuomai Realm!
But now, after Li Zi showed off his skills to Li Erya, he forced Li Erya to practice the immortal skills of Qiqiao Pavilion.
"Son, immortality is in sight!" Li Zi looked at his beloved son with satisfaction as he saw his cultivation progressing better and better. He raised his head with satisfaction and looked at the crescent moon in the sky.
Inexplicably, Li Zi felt that his state of cultivation today was much better than in the past few days.
The speed of cultivation today is at least twenty times that of the previous days.
The efficiency of the mana condensation in the body is simply terrifying.
Li Zi twirled his long beard, secretly making a wishful calculation. He heard the movement in front and knew that Lu Yi had returned.
However, after Lu Yi came back, he went to a house next door and was busy with something. Since Lu Yi did not go into the backyard, Li Zi was too lazy to take the initiative to contact him.
Wait till tomorrow, wait till tomorrow, Li Zi decided to confront Lu Yi. He was going to use a large sum of money to buy Lu Yi's house.
Such a Feng Shui treasure land for cultivation should belong to him, Li Zi.
In the backyard, where Li Zi didn't notice, the five old men were each taking their positions, silently absorbing and exhaling their inspiration and strengthening themselves according to the habits they had developed over the past few years.
In the void, five-colored mist slowly seeped out, and the concentration of spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the backyard rose sharply.
Suddenly, a sound of tearing cloth was heard from Li Erya's body as she was sitting cross-legged.
Li Erya, who had just started practicing for less than a month, actually opened up a meridian.
A long breath with a hint of gray impurities gushed out of his mouth, and Li Erya happily opened his eyes and looked at Li Zi: "Dad, I seem to have condensed the first Yuan Gang."
Li Zi's hands trembled and he almost pulled out a strand of his beard.
His eyes were shining as he quietly felt the spiritual energy of the world around him that was constantly improving. He felt that his own magic power had become agile and active, and warm breaths were rapidly brewing in his five internal organs. With every breath, his strength was greatly improved.
"There's something wrong with this house. A big problem!"
Li Zi whispered, "I will go find Lu Yi tomorrow and take this house. Humph, with my current cultivation and means, I am not afraid that this lucky guy will not surrender."
A light mist seeped in from the direction of the front yard.
Li Zi stood up suddenly, looked at the gradually rising mist, and whispered, "Holding your breath is not a good idea."
Li Erya quickly covered her mouth and nose with her sleeves and looked around in panic.
'Plop.' 'Plop.'
The palace guards and guards who were guarding near the study fell to the ground one after another.
Someone fell headfirst into the stream, splashing huge water.
Dozens of girls wearing black tight leather armor, holding strange-shaped long scimitars, and with a faint aura like ghosts rushed out from the mist and quickly surrounded the library.
The bodies of those fainted strong men and guards were twitching slightly and they were sweating all over. Their energy was constantly being drawn out and merged into the water mist. Part of it was quickly spread out in the mist, and part of it was silently absorbed by the girls. Their eyes became brighter and brighter.
"You chicken thieves, what do you want to do?" Li Zi put his hands behind his back, and the magic power in his body rose, blocking the water mist three feet outside the body, and protecting his precious son at the same time.
While Li Zi scolded the girls, he mocked Lu Yi and Shou Gong Jian in his heart.
How could they be invaded so easily by such a group of little women? This palace guard seemed to be just a name in name only. If it was his Qiqiao Pavilion disciples guarding around, how could they be invaded so easily?
"I didn't expect that Lord Li is here here." Bai Changkong walked with ease, covering several feet in one step, his sleeves fluttering as he walked over like an immortal.
Across a two-meter-wide stream, Bai Changkong smiled and nodded at Li Zi, "This is perfect. We can stop the trouble at once, and save Lord Li from losing his beloved son and then come to me to argue with him later."
Li Zi looked at Bai Changkong in surprise: "What's this, Bai Shanchang?"
Bai Changkong spread his hands and said with a straightforward smile: "I am here to kill people and silence them, or to put an end to the trouble."
Li Zi's face darkened: "Li has no grudges against Bai Shanchang."
Bai Changkong coughed lightly and said, "The ghost incident in Gaojing City a few days ago was caused by Bai Lu. She is no longer a human. So..."
Li Erya suddenly jumped up and roared at the top of his lungs: "Nonsense, Bai Shanzhang, are you going to break off the engagement? Ah, you must have found a better grandson-in-law, are you going to break off the engagement?"
"You bastard, you've done this once before!"
"You want to break off the engagement? But my Li family is not as easy to bully as Lu Yi!"
Li Erya jumped up and down, spewing a lot of obscenities, and then pushed her own father hard: "Dad, go ahead, get him! Beat him half to death, hold him, and make the Bai family hand over Bai Lu in exchange!"
