Volume 4: Transformation into Mystery Chapter 585 Knowing too much can lead to early death!
Feeling Li Xuanfeng's extremely cold gaze, the old man in Taoist robes and the city lord with a small mustache felt their whole bodies become even colder. It was not until they noticed that Li Xuanfeng was walking out of the hall that they finally felt their bodies gradually warming up.
This feeling is as if the soul in the body was scared out of its wits and only now dared to return to the body.
But the two did not dare to stand up at this time. They were still kneeling straight on the ground, their bodies trembling slightly, as if they had not yet recovered from the fear.
Noticing that the two were still kneeling, Li Xuanfeng, who had walked to the front of the gate, shook his head and smiled, saying, "Get up. If the city guards outside saw you two, it would cause a lot of speculation."
Seeing a smile on Li Xuanfeng's face, the old man in Taoist robe and the city lord with a small mustache felt that the fear in their hearts dissipated a little.
Li Xuanfeng's extremely cold look just now made them so frightened that their whole bodies were shaking, worrying that he would kill them with just a thought!
After hearing Li Xuanfeng's words, the old man in Taoist robes and the city lord with a small mustache felt as if they had been pardoned. They immediately stood up, clasped their fists and bowed respectfully, saying, "Thank you, senior!"
Li Xuanfeng smiled softly again and said, "I am more used to your confident and arrogant appearance just now. You should recover for a while."
The old man in Taoist robe and the city lord with a small mustache knew that Doctor Li did not want the city guards outside to discover anything, so they immediately suppressed the fear in their expressions and tried hard to appear calm.
Just then Li Xuanfeng raised his hand to open the door of the hall. The many city guards who were anxiously waiting outside the hall immediately saw him.
When the city guards saw that it was Doctor Li in a blue robe who opened the gate, they were shocked. Could it be that the city lord had met with an accident?
However, after witnessing Li Xuanfeng's terrifying skills before, they no longer dared to act rashly. They just looked into the hall, searching for the figure of the city lord.
They soon saw that although there was an old man in Taoist robes beside the city lord, he was still standing in the hall with a calm expression, and they immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, the city lord is still safe, otherwise the hundred city guards would be to blame today and would definitely receive extremely severe punishment, or even very likely be executed directly!
However, after seeing the mustache-faced city lord, a few of the city guards couldn't help but frown and doubts emerged in their hearts.
Although they saw that the city lord looked quite calm, they seemed to feel that the city lord had changed a little compared to before, but they couldn't tell what the specific changes were.
That's because they would never have thought that the calmness in the city lord's expression at this moment was all forced, so he looked a little different from before.
After seeing that the city lord was safe and sound, the hundred city guards standing outside the hall looked at Li Xuanfeng who was walking out of the hall, their hearts full of doubts.
Why was the city lord safe and sound, and why was Doctor Li able to walk out of the hall so calmly?
What exactly happened in the hall just now?
Moreover, should they stop Dr. Li at this time or let him leave?
At this moment, the city lord with a small mustache's eyes flickered slightly, and he shouted respectfully: "Farewell, Doctor Li!"
He noticed the doubts in the faces of many city guards, and in order to prevent any of them from being so blind as to attack Doctor Li, he quickly shouted out these words.
It was not only a respectful farewell to Li Xuanfeng, but also a reminder to many city guards, killing two birds with one stone.
This was because Doctor Li had said that other people should not be allowed to make unnecessary speculations. Otherwise, he would have respectfully asked Doctor Li if he needed him to send someone back to the clinic.
After hearing the words of the mustache-faced city lord, many city guards immediately realized that the city lord was going to let Doctor Li go.
Although no one knew what had just happened in the hall, Doctor Li and the city lord seemed to have reached an agreement and had apparently stopped fighting.
Realizing this, all the city guards here also clasped their fists and bowed slightly, and shouted loudly with the city lord: "Farewell, Doctor Li!"
After knowing the city lord's intention, many city guards couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
If they were asked to stop Li Xuanfeng, they would really not dare to step forward, otherwise they would probably have to endure severe pain again.
Hearing the respectful words of the crowd, Li Xuanfeng did not look back, but walked straight out of the City Lord's Mansion.
Soon he walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and steadily returned to the Li Family Clinic along the original route.
Seeing Li Xuanfeng walking out of the City Lord's Mansion safely and soundly, many citizens who were watching outside the City Lord's Mansion were extremely surprised.
Originally, they thought that after Doctor Li entered the City Lord's Mansion, there was a high chance that he would never return. Even if he was lucky enough to survive, he would probably suffer great physical pain.
However, no one expected that he would walk out of the City Lord's Mansion in just half an hour, and his appearance was exactly the same as before he entered, with no injuries on his body at all.
Seeing this scene, many people talked about it and were extremely curious about how Dr. Li escaped. Although they thought of several possibilities, there was no way to confirm it.
Even when they later asked the hundred city guards, they knew nothing. They only knew that Doctor Li and the city lord stayed alone in the hall for a while, and when they came out, the city lord's attitude had completely changed.
However, when they heard that Doctor Li had broken through the defense of hundreds of city guards and successfully held the city lord hostage, they were suddenly extremely shocked and could not believe it.
…
At this time, inside the City Lord's Mansion, after seeing that Li Xuanfeng had completely left, the old man in Taoist robe and the City Lord with a small mustache turned around and went deep into the hall to avoid being seen by the city guards outside the hall.
After entering the depths of the hall, the mustache man dared to ask cautiously: "Great Immortal, who is this person? Why does he make you so afraid?"
The old man in Taoist robes turned around and glared at him, then said coldly, "Sometimes, the less you know, the better. If you know too much, you'll die early!"
Hearing his words, a huge wave of emotion rose in the heart of the city lord with a small mustache, and he dared not ask any more questions.
He also knew this truth. If he knew something he shouldn't know, he would probably die without a burial place!
At this moment, he felt that he was a little impulsive. He even dared to be curious about this matter. He simply thought he had lived too long!
At this time, the old man in Taoist robes glared at the city lord with a small mustache again, and angrily scolded him: "I have been badly hurt by you this time. I almost offended this lord!"
The shock in the heart of the mustache city lord suddenly became stronger. He didn't expect that even though Doctor Li had left, the old man in Taoist robe was still so frightened.
It seems that the strength of Doctor Li is even more terrifying than I imagined!
He couldn't help but think of what Doctor Li said before he left, and he immediately decided in his heart that he must not disclose this matter no matter what.
After scolding the mustache-faced city lord, the old man in Taoist robe did not blame him too much. After all, he did not know Li Xuanfeng's identity.
At this time, the old man in Taoist robe frowned and fell into deep thought, thinking about how to avoid Li Xuanfeng's revenge later.
He didn't dare to hope that Doctor Li would let him go so easily. If Doctor Li only wanted to avoid speculation from the city guards and citizens, he would definitely kill the two of them secretly later!
At this moment, a flash of inspiration came to the mind of the old man in Taoist robes. He turned to the city lord with a small mustache and said, "I have something important to do and will leave Qingshan City for a while. You can take care of yourself."
Hearing the words of the old man in Taoist robe, the city lord with a small mustache was about to nod, but his expression was stunned for a moment, and he soon realized that the old man in Taoist robe was going to escape.
The expression of the city lord with a small mustache suddenly became quite nervous, and he asked anxiously: "Great Immortal, what should I do if you leave?"
Just as he expected, the old man in Taoist robe had the same idea. At this moment, he just wanted to leave Qingshan City as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble.
As long as he stayed far enough away from Qingshan City and didn't reveal the matter, maybe that adult wouldn't bother to track him down.
And if he continued to stay in Qingshan City, if that adult had murderous intentions that day, he would surely die instantly.
He had never thought of returning to the sect to seek refuge. That lord was the strongest person in the Spiritual Continent. Who could protect him?
Hearing the tense words of the mustache city lord, the old man in Taoist robes immediately shook his head and sneered, "May you wish for the best."
Having said that, he ignored the mustache-faced city lord and turned into his own residence. He simply packed his luggage and quickly left Qingshan City.
Seeing the old man in Taoist robes leave directly, the city lord with a small mustache was filled with anger and said madly in his heart:
"I spent so much resources to worship this immortal, but I didn't expect him to be so useless. He only cared about escaping when he encountered danger!"
"I sincerely wish you to be struck by five thunderbolts and die in ashes !"
However, he only dared to mutter in his heart. Otherwise, if the immortal heard him, he would probably kill him before leaving...
However, at this time, the city lord with a small mustache could only curse the old man in Taoist robes in his heart, and there was no other way.
He also thought about leaving Qingshan City, but he was reluctant to give up his life as the city lord here.
He has enjoyed this position for too long. If he were suddenly made into an ordinary person, it would be more painful than killing him.
The city lord with a small mustache hesitated for a long time, but finally decided to stay in Qingshan City. He thought that since Doctor Li did not take action this time, as long as he did not offend him again in the future, he would be able to live in peace.
However, the mustache-wearing city lord still sent another extremely cautious city guard captain to inquire about Li Xuanfeng's background.
He warned the captain of the city guard very seriously not to be discovered by Doctor Li and just ask around.
He was extremely curious in his heart. Who was this person who could make the old man in Taoist robes so frightened?
However, a few days later, when the captain of the city guard came back to report, the news he received was: he didn't know where Doctor Li came from, and he didn't even know his specific name!
The people of Qingshan City, even the neighbors who were familiar with the Li Family Clinic, only knew that Doctor Li was Doctor Li, but had never heard of his real name. Even Gao Sheng was completely unaware of it!
This was done intentionally by Li Xuanfeng. He usually addressed Shen Luoyan as "husband" and "wife". The two of them had never revealed their names in Qingshan City...
