I use my daughter's body to cut down the rivers and lakes

Chapter 300 The True Lord

"Your parents should still be alive. If we can use the Six Gates, I think it should not be difficult to find them." Liu Qi's words made Nineteen fall into deathly silence.

After Madam Mei's death, Liu Shijiu had been following Liu Qi. She witnessed with her own eyes the Xu family's attitude towards Liu Qi after Liu Qi returned to the Xu family.

Nineteen was not a stupid person, so she would naturally doubt whether what Madam Mei said back then was true.

Maybe they didn't come to Xiliu Villa because they were abandoned by their families.

As time went by, Liu Nineteen's suspicion became stronger and stronger, until now she almost accepted in her heart that it was Madam Mei who deceived them back then!
But every time Liu Qi mentioned her parents, Liu Nineteen either chose to remain silent or simply turned away. In short, he just didn't want to mention the topic.

But this time, after a brief silence, Liu Nineteen suddenly said in an obscure tone: "You said... did they want to find me?"

Every time Liu Nineteen saw Xu Yongding and Tao's almost doting care for Liu Qi, she would inevitably be moved, wondering if her biological parents would be like Xu Yongding and his wife...

Liu Qi shook his head: "We have to find out after we find them, but one thing is certain, your parents are most likely people from the martial arts world, or from a small family with a martial arts heritage."

When Liu Nineteen heard this, his eyes lit up slightly with a glimmer of hope, but soon returned to dimness again.

She restrained her emotions, pretended to be indifferent, and then said in a cold tone: "Forget it, I don't even have any memory related to them. Even if I find them, what's the use!"

As she spoke, she stared at Liu Qi: "Don't think I don't know. In fact, you don't care about the life and death of the Xu family at all. You don't remember your previous memories, right?"

"Yes!" Liu Qi responded without hesitation.

"Then why do you want to go back to the Xu family?" Nineteen asked with a complicated look.

Liu Qi replied calmly, "There is no reason. We just happened to meet. Whether it's Xu Fangfu or Liu Qi, it makes no difference to me. In the final analysis, it's just a code name."

Nineteen looked deep and asked in a deep voice: "Do you really want to be the best in the world?"

Liu Qi turned around and walked slowly in the direction he had just come from. He replied calmly, "Being number one in the world is just a bonus in the pursuit of the ultimate in martial arts. When that day comes..."

Liu Qi stopped, turned his head slightly, and looked at Liu Shijiu behind him with the corner of his eyes. He said with his lips parted, "I don't know what I will look like."

Liu Nineteen listened to Liu Qi's relatively calm words, and for some reason he felt a little hairy all over and couldn't help shivering!

When he raised his eyes to look at Liu Qi, he found that Liu Qi had already walked far away, so he turned his head to look around and checked, then hurriedly chased after him.

It was almost time for the sun to set.

Liu Qi and Liu Shijiu appeared in front of the gate of Qianduanfang Manor.

The person standing at the door to greet him was not the shopkeeper, but Jiang Quan, who had been rescued by Liu Qi not long ago.

Jiang Quan changed into a coarse cloth and looked at Liu Qi with a complicated expression. He took a deep breath and then stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Miss Liu."

Liu Qi raised his eyes and glanced at him. Seeing that his face was ruddy and radiant without any signs of injury, he said in a light tone: "It seems that the person inside is really a close friend of Master Liuyun."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Quan just silently gave up his position at the door, then raised his hand and said, "Please!"

Under the leadership of Jiang Quan, Liu Qi came to the blacksmith's workshop, where the chimney was emitting thick black smoke.

Liu Qi lowered his eyes slightly, and then looked around, and then said to Liu Shijiu beside him in a deep voice: "Go to the lobby in the front yard and wait for me."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Quan immediately said, "I'll take the girl over."

Upon hearing this, Nineteen just looked at Liu Qi in surprise, and then followed Jiang Quan away without saying a word.

Liu Qi was the only one left on the spacious stone road in front of the workshop.

She felt the temperature around her rising, and then she said slowly, "Where's my knife?"

Bang!
The thick door of the blacksmith's workshop burst open, and a flash of rainbow light rushed out and headed straight for Liu Qi!

Liu Qi narrowed her eyes slightly, and as the breath behind her shook violently, the rainbow light instantly hovered less than a foot in front of her.

When Liu Qi scanned the rainbow light, he realized that it was actually a burning scabbard. The rainbow light on the surface was exactly the state of the melted mineral.

I don't know what material this scabbard is made of. Even after being melted into this shape by high temperature, it still maintains its complete shape.

Nourishes—

Liu Qi suddenly stretched out his right hand and slowly stroked the scabbard. The rainbow light seemed to be absorbed by the palm of Liu Qi, until his right hand passed the end of the scabbard, and a pitch-black scabbard suddenly appeared in front of Liu Qi.

Liu Qi's eyes flashed with a sharp light, and then he grasped the scabbard with his backhand, pointing the scabbard at the door of the blacksmith's workshop, and a majestic aura instantly surged out from his body!

Return to the sheath!

Liu Qi suddenly pinched his five fingers together, and suddenly a buzzing sound was heard in the workshop, followed by a sharp sound of breaking through the air. A streak of purple light whizzed out from the door of the workshop and finally crashed into the scabbard in Liu Qi's hand.

Bang!
Hearing the sound of the sword being sheathed, Liu Qi spun around with the strength in her hand. Her skirt slowly fell down, and there was a short sword still in the sheath at her waist.

After standing still, Liu Qi looked up and saw a burly figure standing at the gate of the workshop. His broad body almost filled the entire gate.

"Thank you!" The burly man uttered these two words stiffly.

Liu Qi raised his head slightly, and said with a hint of briskness in his tone: "I will only strike once."

"Okay!" The man's answer was concise and powerful.

Just as the word "OK" came out of the man's ears, there was a sudden "buzzing" sound, and then all the sounds around him seemed to disappear in an instant. The man's pupils shrank sharply, and when he looked up, he saw that everything in front of him was shrouded by a huge shadow!

"Rumble--"

The man was almost frantically urging the true Qi in his body. A thunderous roar could be heard between his muscles and bones, and the flame-like tattoos on his skin began to dance wildly as the true Qi spread. At first glance, the man looked like he was engulfed by a ball of fire!

A huge shadow had already arrived in front of him. The man raised his eyes and saw that the face of the shadow was Liu Qi. Then a knife flashing with purple light across the sky chopped down at him!

when--

The clouds above Qianduanfang were swept away in an instant.

beep, beep...

The man staggered back several steps until his heels touched the threshold. He then stretched out his arms, let out a muffled sound from his chest, and then stopped retreating and stood still.

Cang——

He suddenly heard a noise, and then looked in the direction of the sound, only to see Liu Qi still standing in the same place, slowly putting the Jingji Knife back into the scabbard.

Bang!
With a crisp sound, the knife returned to its sheath. Liu Qi raised his eyes to look at the man, and then said softly: "You are very good, maybe in another twenty years..."

As Liu Qi spoke, he suddenly lowered his head and smiled faintly: "It's a pity that I can't wait for twenty years."

The man clenched his fists at his sides, then asked in a hoarse voice: "Your true energy..."

Liu Qi immediately raised his head and said, "Seventh level, Yimu Qi."

“No wonder, no wonder…” The man’s pupils trembled suddenly, and then he muttered to himself in a low voice.

Then he suddenly restrained his expression and said seriously: "I have practiced the Lihuo Divine Art for decades, and I have occupied the Lihuo position, with the best time and place, but I never thought that I couldn't even block your sword!"

A gloomy look appeared on the man's face.

Upon hearing this, Liu Qi immediately turned around and looked around, then looked at the stone slab under his feet and said leisurely, "I was wondering why this shabby place is getting hotter the longer I stay here. So this is the legendary Fire Seat!"

"So, there is a natural fire vein underground?" Liu Qi raised his foot and stomped lightly.

The man nodded bitterly when he heard this. He was obviously somewhat hit by Liu Qi, especially after knowing that the mental method Liu Qi practiced was the Yi Mu Zhen Jue, the sense of frustration in his heart became even stronger.

He was confident that he occupied the position of Lihuo. Although he did not have the highest cultivation, he still had the highest power. Moreover, the mental method that the other party practiced was the Yimu Divine Art, which was restrained by the Lihuo Divine Art. As a result...

The man stared at Liu Qi, who was looking around with curiosity, and his eyes suddenly became deep.

No wonder she dared to send Jiang Yu a letter of challenge?

Since defeat was already a foregone conclusion, the man couldn't help but guess Liu Qi's intention. He was unwilling to believe that Liu Qi came purely to test his martial arts.

This Liu Qi... could it be that he is planning to rebuild the Seventh Heaven?

The man's heart trembled, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was possible, so he looked at Liu Qi with a bit of vigilance in his eyes.

Liu Qi had already retracted his gaze at this time, then raised his head and said to the man: "Today's trip is worthwhile."

"By the way, do you know the entrance to the Lihuo Earth Vein?"

Facing Liu Qi's question, the man was stunned for a moment, then nodded solemnly: "Sir, do you want to go to the earth vein? It has been completely occupied by the essence of the fire. Even I dare not go deep into it!"

The man had something else to say, which was that Liu Qi's Yimu Qi was like adding fuel to the fire. If all the entrenched Lihuo essences were activated...

Men simply couldn't imagine that scene!
So he tactfully advised Liu Qi not to try to seize the Lihuo Earth Vein.

I thought it would take some time to explain, but I didn't expect that after Liu Qi heard the situation, he agreed right away.

In fact, the man was completely filtered out. Liu Qi, who had already reached the pinnacle, knew better than anyone the terrifying power of heaven and earth.

However, the reason why Liu Qi was interested in the Lihuo Earth Vein was purely because there was a person who once lived in a similar environment.

Zhou Mi!

Back then, she was poisoned and thrown into the Nine Netherworld Veins, but it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. The pure yin cold air of the Nine Netherworld Cold Veins cleverly achieved a balance with the strange poison in her body, not only allowing her to survive in the desperate situation, but also giving her an ageless face!

However, according to Zhou Mi, as she left the Nine Nether Cold Vein, the strange poison in her body had begun to take over, and as time went by, she would still die from the strange poison.

Of course, she would rather die than go back to the Nine Nether Cold Vein!

Seeing that Liu Qi did not insist on going to the Lihuo Earth Vein, the man was obviously relieved.

The man then clasped his fists and said, "Miss, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

Liu Qi narrowed his eyes slightly: "I don't want to care about your grudge with the Changle Gang."

The man shook his head: "Regarding the affairs of the Changle Gang... I have my own ideas and will never trouble you, but there are some things that I think you may be interested in."

"Oh." Liu Qi nodded slightly and replied, "If that's the case, why not tell me about it."

Then the man invited Liu Qi into the blacksmith workshop. After Liu Qi sat down, the man brought a pot of tea from somewhere and poured a cup for Liu Qi.

After seeing Liu Qi drink the tea in one gulp without hesitation, the man looked at Liu Qi thoughtfully, then picked up the teapot and filled the teacup in front of Liu Qi.

Then the man also sat down and introduced himself in a serious tone.

The man's name is Feng Yao. He is a descendant of the Feng family, one of the famous martial arts families in Jiangnan.

Back then, Emperor Wenzong wiped out the Seventh Heaven and gathered together countless underworld forces, and the Feng family was one of them.

Back then, everyone had their own ulterior motives and said they wanted to burn all the evil demons in the Seventh Heaven to death, but in fact they were all secretly thinking of ways to seize the divine power.

The Feng family was lucky enough to obtain the Lihuo Divine Art, but because they were afraid of being coveted by other martial artists, they hid the art away, planning to wait for a hundred or eighty years, when the Seventh Heaven was completely forgotten, before passing it on to future generations for study.

Unexpectedly, the Feng family encountered a sudden change and the entire clan was wiped out. Only two children survived by chance.

As if recalling the past events that he couldn't bear to look back on, Feng Yao's tone sounded a little lonely: "In terms of seniority, I should call Liuyun uncle, but we are of the same age and grew up together, so our relationship is very close."

"When the Feng family was in trouble, he and I happened to skip family classes and go to the countryside to play, and we ended up saving our lives because of it."

Liu Qi said bluntly: "The Changle Gang suddenly destroyed the Qixia Sect. Could it be that they discovered that Master Liuyun was a descendant of the Feng family?"

Feng Yao naturally understood what Liu Qi meant, and then shook his head: "It was someone else who destroyed the Feng family back then, not the Changle Gang."

"But... I roughly know why Shen Lin wanted to destroy the Qixia Sect and was even willing to bear the infamy to kill Liuyun." Feng Yao sighed softly.

Liu Qi lowered her eyes slightly, waiting for Feng Yao's next words.

Feng Yao paused, then said solemnly: "Because Shen Lin is the leader of 'Futian', the dead Fu Zhuolin is just a scapegoat!"

Liu Qi took a sip of tea and did not reply.

"I know you won't believe me, but I still have to remind Miss Liu of something." Seeing that Liu Qi didn't say anything, Feng Yao said in a deep voice, "In this battle between you and Jiang Jiyu, no matter who wins or loses, Jiang Jiyu will die."

"As long as Jiang Jiyu dies, no one in Jiangnan will be able to resist the Changle Gang. At that time, the Changle Gang will march south to occupy the rich Jiangnan area."

"Shen Lin's ambition is not small. What he wants is definitely not just a corner of Jiangnan!"

"The reason why Liuyun died was because he knew Shen Lin's identity!"
