Chapter 875: People Who Use Poison Have Nasty Intentions
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“I want to ask you sothing. Both you and Xu Wuming have lived more than a century. According to the lifespan of Spirit Wheel experts, there should be other people who have lived more than a century as well, right? Why are the current top-ranked experts all less than a century old? Don’t tell that people in the past were all lousy!” Ren Baqian had nothing to do and decided to get Li Fu to co and barbeque with him. There was a row of people hanging about five ters above the barbeque rack.
Ignorant people would probably think that they were roasting humans!
The aroma of roasted at and the thick smoke from below almost made the dozen youths hanging up there cry!
“Principal, will you let down? I’ll definitely pass the next exam!” Zhu Hua vowed.
“Oh!” Ren Baqian winced. Had he ever passed any exams in the last few years?
Forget it, Ren Baqian had no expectations that he would pass.
Zhu Hua could just be a security guard after graduation!
Li Fu had learned from Ren Baqian and sprinkled so seasoning on a lamb skewer before casually replying, “All dead!”
Ren Baqian was surprised.
He turned to Li Fu and asked, “All dead? The other experts of that era have all died? How did they die?”
Spirit Wheel experts had a lifespan of about 150 years, yet there were only a few of them who remained. There weren’t even any who were in their seventies or eighties, and this made him curious.
It was normal for so to have died after fighting or seeking revenge through so many years, but sothing wasn’t right for so many of them to have died.
“Xu Wuming killed them!” Li Fu replied faintly.
“Him? Why?”
“He would also kill you if he saw you!” he replied.
Ren Baqian frowned. According to Li Fu, there would only be one reason for Xu Wuming to kill Ren Baqian on sight.
“Did he kill them because they wanted to explore the Sixty Thousand Mountains?”
“Yes! There were a lot of experts back then. After we discovered the information, so of them couldn’t hold back any longer and contacted others to go exploring together. Then, Xu Wuming killed them…” Li Fu recollected.
“Is he really that strong?” Ren Baqian asked.
“I couldn’t beat him back then,” Li Fu replied. “He was also badly wounded at the ti. I’m not sure whether he has recovered after so many years, but I have now beco the world’s number one expert!”
Ren Baqian fell silent for a mont before sneering, “Sword Maniac? Humph!”
“You have no idea how scary those things were!” Li Fu shook his head. “If you really want to go, I’ll also stop you! I would rather die here than see a blood bath! When that happens, I probably won’t be able to see anything in this world ever again!”
As the two chatted, the students hanging up there stopped making a din and were all ears.
“I will show you sothing that will knock you off your feet next month!” Ren Baqian sneered.
“Let’s wait and see!” Even though Li Fu said this, it was clear that he didn’t believe Ren Baqian.
“Oh yes, old man, I have also invited so people over! Li Yuanzhu and a few other experts! You guys can gather together later and watch that spectacular sight!”
“What does that have to do with !” Li Fu didn’t seem to be bothered.
“As for that… It has just a little bit to do with you…” Ren Baqian laughed mischievously. “I used your na to invite them!”
“If that’s the case, you won’t be able to do it. They will be able to tell at first glance…” At this mont, Li Fu suddenly seed to think of sothing.
With a surprised look, he asked, “Could that girl have written it? She actually did such a thing?”
“I’m her husband and she is my wife…” Ren Baqian boasted. “Isn’t it just writing a letter?”
“Humph!” Li Fu sneered.
“Her Majesty still remains undefeated. It’s a good ti to gather all of them and defeat them in one fell swoop!” Ren Baqian said casually.
“I’m afraid that you will all die too!” Li Fu didn’t believe his nonsense.
The empress was powerful, but only because she was talented. It was truly rare for soone to be so strong at her age.
She might even surpass Li Fu in a few years’ ti.
However, there were still people who were stronger than her at the mont.
At the very least, there was still Li Yuanzhu.
Even though there were many experts in Dayao, they were still no match for the top ranked experts. They might even be killed in the process.
Why would the empress do such an unwise thing?
“You’ll know when the ti cos. So, you don’t really mind that I used your na to invite them?” Ren Baqian began to wonder as the old man was way too calm about this.
“I’ll explain it to them if they really co. They can only bla themselves for being stupid! How could they bla for it?” Li Fu sneered.
“How imposing!” Ren Baqian comnded and gave a thumbs up.
“I’m waiting to see the show that you’ll put on. If you ss it up, you will lose the respect of everyone in the dynasty. The empress won’t let you off either!” Li Fu replied, waiting to see what Ren Baqian had in store.
“Furthermore, be cautious of Xu Wuming. If he knows of your intention, even the empress won’t be able to save you! Don’t count on to help you stop him either!”
“Why would I put myself out there if I can’t even handle him? I might as well lead a good and simple life!” Ren Baqian laughed.
…
At the sa ti, Li Yuanzhu took Ning Qing and ca down the mountain.
“We are finally out! I’m bored to death!” Ning Qing imdiately cheered when she arrived at the foot of the mountain.
“You better know your place on the road. Don’t create any trouble, especially when we reach Dayao. That person might not even care about !” Li Yuanzhu reminded her.
“How would they dare! Qi Zixiao is just the fourth most powerful expert in the world—you are stronger than her! Other than those two old fellows, nobody else can be compared to you!” Ning Qing imdiately jumped to attention.
Li Yuanzhu shook her head and made up her mind that she had to look out for Ning Qing throughout the entire trip.
…
Half a month after Li Yuanzhu set off, Ma Hongyu called a few disciples over and ordered, “Follow to settle sothing. Go and pack your bags. We will set off in two days. We may get into a fight this ti, so be careful! This is also a chance for you to hone your skills!”
Xu Gongsou and Tong Yan both brought along a few experts from their sects, but the two reacted very differently. The forr was very enthusiastic as he might be able to obtain sothing that would be useful for his breakthrough.
On the other hand, Tong Yan, the leader of Righteous Sect, was prepared to go and watch a good show. If there was a good opportunity, he would definitely seize it. If not, he would just walk away and beco a stepping stone for others.
More importantly, he knew so things as the leader of the sect. As a result, he was indifferent to the issue of breaking through.
Based on how far the experts were from their destination, they successively departed within a two week period of each other. Their destination was a hilly area northwest of Dayao!
…
One day, two n carrying swords and dressed as scholars arrived at Lan City.
“The people here aren’t friendly at all!” One of them started to wince after looking at the pedestrians as well as the poles on the side of the street.
Along the way, many aboriginal males deliberately flexed their arms as they walked by to show off their biceps and chest muscles, displaying a subtle threat.
Needless to say, their faces looked extrely fierce as well.
Fortunately, these people didn’t create trouble, and the two n managed to avoid conflict.
“Brother Ling, be careful later,” one of them whispered.
“You can still flee from others, but I’m afraid that you won’t be able to escape from the grasp of Qi Zixiao! Just play it by ear!” the other man replied.
“I’m not worried about Qi Zixiao… I’m not worried that she will attack us if we don’t provoke her. Be careful of that Zhao Prince Consort!”
“Why?”
“People who use poison have bad intentions!”
One of them was Du ngyang, who was 28 years old.
The other was Ling Du, who was 34 years old.
Both were masters from Dream.
There were now two groups of sword masters. One was Shadow Dream while the other was Hidden Dream.
After Qing Lian passed the information to these two groups, mbers of Hidden Dream didn’t show much interest. However, many of those in Shadow Dream felt that this was a good opportunity.
Most of them weren’t overly ambitious, but they wished to make use of worldly resources so that they didn’t have to stay in the wilderness their entire lives.
Therefore, after receiving this news, these two Spirit Wheel level sword masters ca in person to et Ren Baqian.
