"Jiang Emperor?!" Even though his appearance had changed, the three of them recognized Jiang Li's voice from his tone and intonation.
"How did you end up here?"
"I heard that you guys were being targeted by the Heaven Killing Pavilion, so I ca to see what was going on." Jiang Li laughed.
"Huh? The Long family sent assassins to kill us?" The three of them were surprised, they didn't expect the Long family to go to such lengths.
"They're after you two, not Song Ying." Jiang Li corrected them.
The three of them understood, the Long family wanted to kill the master and disciple and take Song Ying for themselves.
"Tell , how did you guys get on the wrong side of the local boss?" Jiang Li asked with interest.
Yuan Wuxing recounted the whole story from an outsider's perspective, with Qin Luan and Song Ying occasionally adding their own comnts.
"Now the Long family is surrounding Long Yin City to intercept us. Of course, I can escape, but I'm not confident I can protect Qin Luan and Song Ying."
"The Long family's Divine Transformation Ancestor won't bother with such small matters. The Long family can only use Nascent Soul cultivators to kill us. They're afraid that I'll pull in a Nascent Soul stage worshipper before I die. We're all in a dilemma with the Long family. I was still thinking about what they would do, but I didn't expect them to send assassins!"
In fact, as soon as Yuan Wuxing started speaking, Jiang Li had already guessed most of it. It was an old story, the Long family forcibly taking a civilian woman, a young man seeing injustice and finally escalating the conflict.
"You guys are still too honest, you can't get rid of the habits of the Great Zhou. The Long family's situation is easily solved." Jiang Li smiled, "The Tianyuan Empire has its own rules, the strong are respected, use ruthless thods, play dirty, and learn to adapt to local customs."
"You're the People's Emperor, you have absolute power, of course you're not afraid of anything!" Qin Luan said dissatisfiedly, only to be scolded by Yuan Wuxing.
Jiang Li wasn't angry either, "Then let show you. Right now, I'm your friend in the Great Zhou, Huang Li, with extraordinary talent, just like you, I've reached the Golden Core stage."
As Jiang Li spoke, the unfathomable feeling disappeared. Others only saw him as an ordinary cultivator, and Yuan Wuxing only saw him as a Golden Core cultivator, with a full Golden Core and a high rank, ranking in the top three of the Golden Core stage. As for the specific rank, he couldn't tell, that was sothing only Divine Transformation cultivators could do.
"Watch what I do." Jiang Li really only used the power of the Golden Core stage, without using any ans beyond the Golden Core stage.
"Where does the third son of the Long family usually appear?"Qin Luan thought for a mont: "He was seriously injured by and should be bedridden, but considering the Long family's wealth, they should have already healed him with spiritual pills. Either he's causing trouble in the city or competing with others on so arena. I t him in the city where he was publicly robbing a woman."
Jiang Li nodded. "Then let's go to the city. Yuan Wuxing, as a Nascent Soul elder, follow us in secret."
Being called an elder by Jiang Li scared Yuan Wuxing a bit.
Jiang Li led Qin Luan and Song Ying downstairs, while Yuan Wuxing followed in secret.
"Put on your veil." Qin Luan reminded Song Ying. He knew she was beautiful and could easily attract trouble in Longyin City.
At first, he had no experience, but after the incident with the Long family, Qin Luan knew he had to be more discreet.
Song Ying covered half of her face with a white veil and used a wide grass hat to shade the other half. This way, no one would notice her appearance.
"Why did Song Ying co here? Did she happen to co to the Tianyuan Empire and et you?" Jiang Li was puzzled.
Although the truth was far from what Jiang Li said, Song Ying couldn't say that she followed Qin Luan's footsteps to the chaotic Tianyuan Empire. She had to lie.
"So that's it? I thought you liked and followed here." Qin Luan was very surprised. After the trip to the mysterious secret realm, he thought Song Ying liked him, but it seed he was mistaken.
Song Ying smiled at Jiang Li, and he couldn't see the fist she was hiding in her sleeve because he was only at the Golden Core stage.
They arrived at the city, where small vendors were shouting and selling their wares. Jiang Li walked around several tis but didn't encounter any cases of robbing won. Instead, he saw many thieves and counterfeit goods.
He wondered how Qin Luan and Song Ying had encountered the incident of a man robbing a woman.
"It seems that Long San Shui is not here. What's his na again?"
"Long Sanshui. He has two brothers, Long Dajin and Long Erhuo."
"...The Long family is quite cultured, knowing the five elents of tal, wood, water, fire, and earth."
"Yes, at first, when I heard that the Long family had nad their children this way, I thought my master was Long Sanshui's father." Qin Luan nodded repeatedly, then felt a kick from Yuan Wuxing.
Long Sanshui was indeed on an arena, looking very arrogant.
He had just recovered from a serious illness and wanted to vent his anger, so he set up an arena.
"This is ten middle-grade spirit stones. Who wants to co up and let beat them up?" Long Sanshui stood in the middle of the arena, showing off his arrogance.Jiang Li could tell that this guy's strength in the later stage of Foundation Establishnt was all thanks to the pile of pills. He was just a Golden Core waste who had reached the ninth grade of pill refinent in this life.
But who said the Long family was rich?
"I'll do it!" A cultivator in the later stage of Foundation Establishnt stepped onto the stage. He had a strong foundation and was much stronger than Long Sanshui.
However, this cultivator was soon thrown into confusion by Long Sanshui's chaotic attacks and eventually fell to the ground, beaten up by Long Sanshui.
"Aweso!" Long Sanshui was pleased with himself and threw the spirit stones to the cultivator, telling him to get off the stage.
"This guy is using spirit stones to buy sandbags!" Qin Luan whispered.
"These are twenty middle-grade spirit stones. Who wants to co up and get beaten by ?" Long Sanshui took out more spirit stones. Everyone present understood that the more spirit stones there were, the more miserable the beating would be.
But there were still many people willing to go up on stage.
", , , I can take a beating!"
"I'm the loudest screar!"
"I'm a Golden Core cultivator!"
Among the crowd's shouting, Jiang Li shouted the loudest. Everyone was surprised and turned their heads. What was a Golden Core cultivator doing in our Foundation Establishnt cultivator pile?
With a Golden Core cultivator as a sandbag, Long Sanshui naturally chose Jiang Li.
"I have a condition." Jiang Li said after stepping onto the stage. "You have to give the spirit stones first."
Without hesitation, Long Sanshui threw the spirit stones to Jiang Li. He wasn't worried that Jiang Li would take the money and run away. There were Nascent Soul cultivators nearby, and he, a Golden Core cultivator, couldn't turn the tide.
Jiang Li weighed the spirit stone bag and threw it back to Long Sanshui.
Long Sanshui took the spirit stone bag, looking puzzled.
"Since twenty spirit stones can buy a willing Golden Core cultivator to take a beating, it's only natural that they can also buy a Foundation Establishnt cultivator to be beaten up by a Golden Core cultivator. It makes sense, right?"
Jiang Li smiled and explained, then rushed up to Long Sanshui and started attacking him.
"Stop!" The Nascent Soul cultivator reacted and beca furious, wanting to kill Jiang Li.
Jiang Li pinched Long Sanshui's life gate and hid behind him. He looked like a piece of at on a chopping board. "If you dare to make a move on , I'll kill him! I'm not sure if my life is worth more or if Long Sanshui's life is worth more!"
