Chapter 336: 337
Translator: 549690339
Yang Huan carefully explained the situation within the city to Li Xiaobai.
Li Xiaobai felt that the affairs within the city were sowhat complex, as the City Lord of the Holy City had been sidelined, and moreover, his cultivation level was so low.
The situation seed quite complicated.
“Then on what grounds did your father beco the City Lord of the Holy City?”
Li Xiaobai asked.
“My father has always been stationed at the border, firstly because he had the necessary experience, and secondly because he had experts by his side. The Pudong Rooster that the big shot saw at the city gate, Song Que, was originally one of my father’s n. It’s precisely because of his help that my father was able to firmly hold the position of City Lord.”
“But during one battle, he inexplicably lost an arm and has been unable to recover since. My father and Senior Sky Blade never ntion this matter. With the loss of Senior Sky Blade, the Holy City’s power of deterrence wasn’t as strong as before, and over ti, the prestige of the City Lord of the Holy City has beco increasingly low.”
Yang Huan continued to explain, which was also why she wanted to win over Li Xiaobai.
Now that the Holy City was declining, if they could win over a big shot to join them, perhaps her father’s influence could rise again.
“But Song Que used to be a peak warrior, right? Even with one arm less, his authority shouldn’t have completely diminished, so why did he end up guarding the gate?”
This was the question that puzzled Li Xiaobai the most.
Based on the slash from Song Que he had seen earlier, if the other party was serious, ordinary cultivators of the Great Crossing Realm would be far from his match.
“This involves the struggle between political factions. When the Holy City was powerful, it spoke unchallenged at the border. A few City Lords didn’t want to be controlled by others, so they joined forces to exert pressure, citing Senior Sky Blade’s old age and frail health, needing to recuperate, as reasons to transfer him out of the Holy City.”
“Senior Sky Blade was worried about my father’s safety, so he stayed at the city gate and never left. When the City Lords of the four cities saw that their goal had been achieved, they didn’t continue to drive him away.”
Yang Huan’s expression showed so anger, as Song Que was forced out by the City Lords.
These City Lords, for their own selfish interests, were willing to cripple a top warrior of the human race. Such actions were indeed despicable, but she was helpless. It was a ga played by the powerful, far beyond her position to comnt on recklessly.
“So that’s how it is. Every family has its own difficult scriptures to chant. It’s a pity to see a being like Sky Blade not on the battlefield.”
Li Xiaobai said, though he also felt sowhat relieved. If Sky Blade were on the battlefield, his Attribute Points as well as the nourishnt from the Hellfire would definitely decrease.
“Yes, indeed. However, if you, great sir, are willing to help the Holy City rise again, this young lady is willing to work like an ox or a horse for you!”
Yang Huan said earnestly.
Li Xiaobai was speechless. What would he want you to work like an ox or a horse for? Your cultivation level hasn’t even reached the Nascent Soul Stage. Not to ntion adding to my Attribute Points, even if burned, you wouldn’t provide much nourishnt.
You’re purely a mascot-like existence.
“Hmm, no need. I will visit the Flesh Mountain Battlefield anyway. You just help find out about Cangying.”
Li Xiaobai waved his hand as he spoke.
“Understood.”
Yang Huan’s face turned a bit red, feeling sowhat embarrassed. He was a genuine big shot. How could he take an interest in a junior like her?
Her heart felt sowhat relieved, but also a tinge of lancholy.
In the midst of their conversation, a soft rustling sound approached.
Li Xiaobai felt so movent in his arms and reached out to pull Ji Wuqing out.
“Giggle, lad, you actually dare to plot for wealth and murder!”
“Because of your flas, I have already died five tis over, and today you must give an explanation!”
Ji Wuqing’s eyes were ablaze, his expression one of deep resentnt.
Adding to the number of tis he died in the belly of the Sea Clan big shot, he had died a total of eight tis now. And this was all in just a few short days; he had perished seven tis consecutively, which was a bit too much for him to accept in a mont.
“Cough, cough, but it was you who told beforehand to give you a wisp of fla, wasn’t it? I have given it to you, haven’t I?”
Li Xiaobai glanced at it, finding the situation sowhat amusing.
System panel:
[Pet: Pudong Rooster (Current Death Count: 8 tis).]
Having died eight tis, this darned chicken must have made so significant progress in strength.
“Cluck, cluck, boy, do you take for a fool? I want to master that kind of black fla, not just endure its burning!”
Ji Wuqing was furious, and traces of black and purple flas leaked from the corners of his mouth, fiercely entwining towards Li Xiaobai.
[Attribute Points 1000…]
[Attribute Points 1000…]
Hiss!
This darned chicken had actually awakened the ability to breathe fire, and the added Attribute Points were quite a lot, with not shabby damage either!
He waved his hand to brush away the purple-black flas, instantly extinguishing them.
Li Xiaobai said with a chuckle, “Little chick, spray it one more ti, let see?”
“Cluck, cluck, you’re dreaming if you think you can deceive out of my fla!”
Ji Wuqing cald down and said disdainfully, he fluttered his wings and flew onto Yang Huan’s shoulder, deciding that from now on he must keep his distance from Li Xiaobai.
Otherwise, who knew when this guy might get upset and release the fla directly? The chicken couldn’t bear that kind of terrifying burning.
Yang Huan was beyond shocked inside.
Just two hours earlier, she had personally witnessed Ji Wuqing being burnt to ashes by Li Xiaobai, which had terrified her, making her think that Li Xiaobai was a homicidal maniac who even killed his teammates.
But now, Ji Wuqing scared her even more.
Resurrecting from death, the chicken could actually co back to life and act as if nothing had happened.
Looking at Li Xiaobai’s calm deanor, Yang Huan’s mind was baffled; could it be that this man and chicken often play killing gas with each other?
In the midst of her thoughts, a person entered the room.
“Huann’er, Young Master Li, I have been waiting for a long ti. I was remiss in my hospitality earlier, I hope you can forgive .”
Yang Guang ca in and said. He had been lingering outside the door for quite a while and could hear every word of the conversation between his daughter and Li Xiaobai clearly from inside.
Originally, he had wanted to test Li Xiaobai, but to his surprise, the latter had not paid any attention to him from beginning to end. What was more unexpected was his daughter’s mysterious confidence in Li Xiaobai.
Was this man just putting on a show to deceive Yang Huan, or did he truly have so real skills?
He was sowhat confused for a mont.
“Ah, City Lord Yang has taken a lot of trouble. My sudden visit is indeed abrupt, and it has caused you so trouble, so please forgive ,” said Li Xiaobai with a chuckle, still feeling quite fond of Yang Guang and his daughter who were clearly trying to help him.
“Young Master Li, you jest, please take a seat. Since you’ve co at Huann’er’s request to help, and seeing how much she trusts you, may I ask what has brought Young Master Li to the borderlands?”
Yang Guang asked straightforwardly without beating around the bush.
“Well, my main purpose is to kill Flesh Mountain and incidentally find a cultivator called Cangying,” Li Xiaobai said with a light smile.
“Cangying?”
Yang Guang’s expression turned puzzled; he had never heard of such a person.
“I heard that this person is in the first battlefield,” Li Xiaobai reminded him.
As soon as these words ca out, Yang Guang’s expression suddenly darkened. He knew all the strong players in the first battlefield, and there was no one nad Cangying.
This could only an one thing—that the first battlefield had expanded its powers without his knowledge.
