101: Lord Fuyang will definitely die!
When Su Hongye learned that two Land Immortals were about to clash, and Qin Zhinan said he wanted to bet on one, Su Hongye was truly startled by him.
Land Immortals were no laughing matter; if one rashly got involved, they might face eternal damnation!
The entire Linglong Merchant Guild would be buried with them!
Su Hongye immediately rejected Qin Zhinan's proposal, but Qin Zhinan was persistent and continued to persuade him.
After calming down from his initial shock, Su Hongye began to seriously consider Qin Zhinan's proposal, analyzing the possibilities within it.
As the leader of a top merchant guild, Su Hongye was not only intelligent but also very bold, and he did not lack the ruthlessness to go all in.
The Linglong Merchant Guild's achievements today were also related to his past gambles; winning meant both fame and fortune, losing meant eternal damnation.
Fortunately, he had won them all.
So this time...
Should he gamble again?
Undoubtedly, once these two Land Immortals clashed, it would likely only end with the demise of one of them.
So which of these two would die?
Would it be Lord Fuyang?
Or Li Qi?
Both Su Hongye and Qin Zhinan frowned.
Li Qi was young and appeared inexperienced, and his reputation was not well-known, clearly indicating he was a Land Immortal who had recently achieved a Breakthrough. To achieve a Land Immortal Breakthrough at such a young age... his martial Dao talent was unprecedented!
Even Ji Ying from back then probably couldn't compare to him.
And Lord Fuyang had been a notorious ruthless individual many years ago, and he had also broken through the limits of his lifespan using unknown methods, living until now, which similarly could not be ignored.
How to choose became a dilemma for Su Hongye and Qin Zhinan.
They felt this should be the most difficult decision they had ever made in their lives!
Ultimately, they still chose Li Qi.
Firstly, due to reasons of character and customary actions, they had ruled out Lord Fuyang.
Lord Fuyang had a violent and unpredictable temper, killing entirely based on his mood, often without any reason.
Even if they sold out Li Qi and helped Lord Fuyang, he would most likely not appreciate it.
"What this Divine Lord wants to say, what this Divine Lord wants to do... do you, these useless wretches, need to presume to guess?"
"This Divine Lord's actions throughout his life, why should he explain them to others?"
"When this Divine Lord made his move... how dare you, these useless wretches, secretly interfere?"
"How dare you come and talk about some deal with me? And demand benefits from me?!"
"Hmph! You filthy rascals, this Divine Lord is very displeased... die!!!"
Upon thinking of such a scenario, Su Hongye and Qin Zhinan felt a chill in their hearts, almost breaking out in a cold sweat, and immediately extinguished the idea of choosing Lord Fuyang.
After careful consideration, Su He still chose Li Qi; Li Qi was a better partner.
Therefore, one should accumulate some good character when necessary, for if it ever proves useful, it will be of great use.
Su He told Li Qi all the information he had gathered about Lord Fuyang during these days, including some secrets that even Ji Zhizhang did not know, allowing Li Qi to understand much more about Lord Fuyang.
"Alright, you've really gone to a lot of trouble, to actually find so much information."
After a long conversation, Li Qi nodded in satisfaction and stood up, preparing to leave.
As he was about to depart, Qin Zhinan couldn't help but ask, "Lord Li, how confident are you against Lord Fuyang?"
Li Qi smiled.
"Lord Fuyang... he is certain to die!"
As his voice faded, Li Qi's figure slowly disappeared from the spot.
The undisguised killing intent, coupled with his determination to win, deeply affected Su Hongye and Qin Zhinan, leaving them stunned for a long time.
While the world remained unaware, they had already learned the crucial details, which filled their hearts with excitement.
"Lord Li, then let us wait and see..."
...
After leaving the Linglong Merchant Guild, Li Qi did not linger in Xingfeng Fu City.
Since he knew that Lord Fuyang would arrive within seven days, there was no need to continue wandering outside; he needed to return as soon as possible.
It would be amusing if Lord Fuyang disregarded martial Dao ethics and simply slapped the entire mountain gate out of existence upon arrival.
Li Qi now possessed the strength of a Secret Realm Peak, and combined with the Floating Light Seal, his speed was far greater than before, incredibly fast.
Distances that Mortals could not cross in a lifetime, Li Qi traversed in an instant.
Neither mountains and great lakes nor deserts and Gobi could impede his steps.
In just a few moments, Li Qi had crossed a vast distance and arrived outside the mountain gate.
Looking at the familiar vermillion gate not far away, Li Qi felt a surge of emotion.
He hadn't been gone for long, but many things had happened during that time, making it feel as if a very long time had passed.
Li Qi's figure flickered, and he went straight to the depths of the Pine Crane Longevity Sect, where he saw Ji Zhizhang meditating.
A familiar voice sounded from behind Ji Zhizhang.
"Elder, how have you been lately?"
