52: Lure the tiger away from the mountain

At the same time, in the Zigui City Lord's Mansion.

A white-haired old man was leisurely drinking tea.

The Three-Star Great Martial Master who had been defeated by Lu Xingchen earlier rushed in.

"Lord Li Ning, something terrible has happened!"

Li Ning slowly placed his teacup down and said indifferently, "Sun Sheng, didn't I tell you to remain calm no matter what happens? Haste makes waste. What is it? Speak slowly."

Sun Sheng took a breath and said in a deep voice, "Lord Li Ning, Lu Xingchen has returned from Lingxiao Sect, bringing with him a giant Dragon and a Great Martial Master. Our plan to conquer the royal city has been thwarted by them."

Li Ning said indifferently, "Just two people and one Dragon? It seems Lingxiao Sect can't completely ignore the rules of the Righteous Path Alliance either. What Realm is that Lu Xingchen in?"

Sun Sheng said in a deep voice, "Ten-Star Martial Master."

Li Ning said indifferently, "For his age, Cultivating to Ten-Star Martial Master is quite good. Such a Genius cannot be allowed to grow. In a few days, I will personally lead troops to the royal city and eliminate Lu Xingchen."

Sun Sheng continued, "Lord, you mustn't underestimate Lu Xingchen! Although he is only a Martial Master, he defeated the combined attack of me and two other Great Martial Masters, and he even killed the other two Great Martial Masters."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise appeared in Li Ning's expression.

"Oh? That formidable? Then he must be eliminated even more! Don't attack the city yet. Let this young man dream of restoring his country, to prevent him from despairing and fleeing. In a few days, I will personally take action and kill him."

Sun Sheng nodded heavily, "Understood!"

Lord Li Ning is a Martial Spirit Realm Expert; with his strength, he can definitely crush Lu Xingchen!

He no longer needed to worry.

Sun Sheng then asked, "Lord, I heard that Lu Xingchen and Lu Chaoyang have a very good relationship. Will he try to break him out of prison?"

Li Ning said indifferently, "Impossible! In order to intimidate the people of Dayan Kingdom, the news of my presence in Zigui City has already been spread. No matter how bold Lu Xingchen is, he can't possibly cross two Great Realms and challenge the authority of a Martial Spirit Realm Expert."

Sun Sheng nodded again, "The Lord is right. In that case, I will return to the front line to supervise the battle."

Li Ning said indifferently, "The siege will not be launched for now, so what use is it for you to go back to the front line? Just stay by my side and relax."

"Understood!"

Sun Sheng slowly retreated.

Li Ning took a sip of tea and snorted coldly.

I really don't know why the King sent me to Dayan Kingdom.

It's simply overkill.

As for that Lu Xingchen, he won't be jumping around for much longer.

A day and a night later, Lu Xingchen and Yun Li, in disguise, successfully passed inspection and entered Zigui City.

Lu Xingchen found an inn in a corner of Zigui City, and the two checked in.

Yun Li excitedly said, "Lu Xingchen, when do you plan to rescue him? A small Martial Master battling a Martial Spirit Realm Expert, just thinking about it excites me!"

Lu Xingchen said indifferently, "No hurry, first gather intelligence. Yun Li, can you disguise yourself and infiltrate?"

Yun Li smiled and said, "Of course! I often sneak out of Cangxuan Sect behind my master's back to play outside, so my skills in disguise and infiltration are very strong."

"Ah, this... you really are lively and adorable!"

"Then you'll disguise yourself with me and enter the City Lord's Mansion to investigate the combat power, daily habits, frequent haunts, and so on, of Li Ning, that Martial Spirit Realm Expert from Tianhui Kingdom, and the other Great Martial Master Realm Experts. The more detailed, the better."

Yun Li said with a smile, "Okay, no problem! Lu Xingchen, you actually have quite a brain. This game is getting more and more interesting!"

Among the Grade 3 medicinal formulas Lin Jing gave Lu Xingchen was a breath concealing pill, which could hide the Dou Qi fluctuations of the user.

As long as Dou Qi was not actively stimulated, anyone below a Martial Spirit Realm Expert would be unable to sense it.

Lu Xingchen refined a dozen breath concealing pills in the inn, and with Yun Li's disguise technique, the two successfully infiltrated the City Lord's Mansion.

After three days, Lu Xingchen had completely mastered the information on the experts in the City Lord's Mansion.

Li Ning, a One-Star Martial Spirit, usually enjoyed drinking tea and fishing, and generally did not leave the City Lord's Mansion.

There were also four other Great Martial Master Experts, one of whom was Sun Sheng, who had escaped from Lu Xingchen's hands.

All four Great Martial Masters were low-star, which Lu Xingchen could handle, but he couldn't kill them in a short time.

He even figured out Lu Chaoyang's location, which was in a specially made room in the City Lord's Mansion, adjacent to Li Ning's bedroom.

After all the information was gathered, Lu Xingchen and Yun Li discussed a strategy.

Yun Li asked curiously, "One Martial Spirit, four Great Martial Masters. Lu Xingchen, how do you plan to fight this battle?"

Lu Xingchen said in a deep voice, "Lure the tiger away from its mountain. We don't need to defeat Li Ning; we just need him to leave the City Lord's Mansion for some time."

Li Ping, one of the four Great Martial Master Realm Experts, was a lecher.

His greatest hobby every day was to visit Chunxiang Tower, and he never paid, insisting on freeloading.

The owner of Chunxiang Tower also dared not offend him, otherwise, if he became displeased, it was not impossible for him to smash the entire Chunxiang Tower.

That evening, Li Ping opened a private room, listening to music while caressing the girl in his arms.

Just then, Yun Li's clear voice sounded at the door.

"Lord Li Ping, Mama asked me to bring a fruit platter!"

Li Ping said indifferently, "Come in!"

As soon as Yun Li entered, Li Ping was captivated by her beautiful appearance, and the girl in his arms instantly lost her appeal.

Just as he hesitated, Yun Li had already quickly put down the fruit platter and left.

Li Ping then made up his mind and shouted, "Young lady, wait!"

Yun Li ignored Li Ping's shouts and walked faster and faster.

Li Ping pushed away the woman in his arms and chased after Yun Li.

She fled, he chased, she couldn't escape.

Finally, in a quiet, deserted corner, Yun Li stopped.

Li Ping's heart filled with joy, and he immediately reached out his hand.

Just then, a Dou Qi Hand Seal flew towards Li Ping from the shadows.

The power of the Dou Qi Hand Seal instantly made Li Ping's lust disappear. He immediately gathered all his Dou Qi to form a shield around his body.

The Dou Qi Hand Seal instantly destroyed the shield, then, with undiminished force, slammed into Li Ping.

He immediately flew backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air, then crashed heavily against the wall and fell unconscious.

That's right, the one who had just attacked was Lu Xingchen.

To achieve a quick victory with one strike, he directly used his ultimate trump card: Heaven Obliterating Seal.

Even Qin Hao's Five Elements Array couldn't withstand the Heaven Obliterating Seal, let alone Li Ping, a Two-Star Great Martial Master.

Yun Li rushed over and kicked Li Ping heavily.

"A native of Tianhui Kingdom, actually daring to covet this young lady's beauty, he deserves to die!"

Lu Xingchen quickly stopped her and said, "Don't actually kill him, I still need him."

Immediately, Lu Xingchen took out the hunyuan umbrella, Sealed Li Ping, and ran out of Chunxiang Tower with Yun Li.

Only after the two had reached the street did the people of Chunxiang Tower react and check the source of the commotion.
