Chapter 397 Murderous Intent

After Liu Qi sat down, he said softly, "Let him in."

Although Liu Jiujiu was somewhat reluctant when she heard this and opened and closed her lips several times as if wanting to say something, Zhou Mi on the side gave her a look and Liu Jiujiu finally walked out of the room with a gloomy face.

After watching her leave, Zhou Mi smiled slightly: "Xiaojiu is also worried. After all, Xu Qinghuai is your brother. How could he do anything bad to you?"

After saying this, Zhou Mi saw that Liu Qi was pale and silent, so he changed the subject and asked in a deep voice: "What happened yesterday? Didn't Gu Liancheng's identity have been exposed? Why did you end up fighting Xiao Qifeng and Jiang Xuanyun alone?"

Hearing this, Liu Qi slowly raised his eyes to look at Zhou Mi, then shook his head: "Yesterday's battle had nothing to do with anyone's identity. Xiao Qifeng and Jiang Xuanyun probably reached some kind of deal, so the two of them attacked at the same time, trying to force Gu Liancheng and I out of the capital to prevent the people in the capital from being affected again."

Zhou Mi frowned: "Even if they join forces, they still can't kill Gu Liancheng?"

Liu Qi nodded and said, "If both sides go all out and fight to the death, naturally no one would dare to confront them head-on. However, it is impossible for Xiao Qifeng and Jiang Xuanyun to go all out in the capital. Gu Liancheng seems to have seen this, so he dared to show up in front of me."

Now thinking back carefully, ever since Liu Qi came to Beijing, Xiao Qifeng had already covered most of the capital with his influence. At that time, almost the whole world was saying that Liu Qi was the Lord Futian, so Xiao Qifeng's move was understandable.

After Jiang Xuanyun entered the capital, he integrated his own Jue Ling sword energy into the entire land. As long as he thought about it, the consequences would be even more tragic than yesterday's battle. Of course, Jiang Xuanyun's move was probably to guard against Xiao Qifeng or Liu Qi.

This is also the reason why Xiao Qifeng and Jiang Xuanyun did not take action yesterday.

Perhaps Liu Qi's murderous intent is invincible, but if we talk about whose martial arts has a wider killing range, she, Liu Qi, can't compare to Cang Hai Heng Liu and Jue Ling Jian Qi even if she flatters herself. After all, murderous intent is just a manifestation of a state of mind, while the way the latter two manifest themselves is a complete disaster for ordinary people.

Gu Liancheng also saw through this, so he dared to show up in front of Liu Qi openly, but he still missed one point, that is, Liu Qi's murderous intention was truly indifferent to all living beings in the world, even Liu Qi's own life.

So when Liu Qi almost resorted to the method of exchanging his life for another's, Gu Liancheng also felt the situation was difficult. He just wanted to rescue his son from Liu Qi and use the properties of the Bu Tian Stone to make Liu Qi retreat. However, Liu Qi was determined to keep him even if she died.

"I don't understand. Since Gu Liancheng has already seen that you would rather die than leave him behind, why doesn't he retreat?" Zhou Mi asked in confusion after hearing Liu Qi's story.

Liu Qi's eyes flickered slightly, and then he said softly: "There is almost no difference in Qi cultivation above the top. What the two sides are competing for is their own Tao and character. If I get scared first in this battle, I'm afraid it will be difficult to win against Gu Liancheng again in this life."

"He was the same. When I showed my determination to fight to the death, he didn't dare to retreat. But as he said, no matter who wins or loses, the final result will only benefit others. If Jiang Xuanyun and Xiao Qifeng hadn't made a move at the end, Gu Liancheng and I would have been the first to withdraw from this battle of heaven."

Hearing Liu Qi's casual words, Zhou Mi's mouth opened wide, and then he asked in surprise: "So Jiang Xuanyun and Xiao Qifeng actually saved you yesterday?"

Liu Qi nodded slightly: "Since Jiang Xuanyun did this, it means that he has anticipated today's outcome."

beep, beep...

There were footsteps outside the door, and Liu Qi immediately shut up. In the end, Gu Liancheng's plan was completely ineffective, and Xiao Qifeng and Jiang Xuanyun took action.

Xu Qinghuai walked in hurriedly and saw Liu Qi sitting at the table with his back to him. His pupils immediately shrank until he saw Liu Qi pick up the teacup and take a sip. Only then did the worry in Xu Qinghuai's eyes fade away, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Little sister... I'm glad you're okay, I'm glad you're okay." Xu Qinghuai came forward with a look of relief on his face and whispered to himself.

The sudden unusual movement in South City yesterday naturally did not escape his eyes, but Xu Qinghuai did not expect that one of the parties involved in this turmoil was actually his own sister. When he rushed to the place where the two were fighting, he was shocked by the bare wasteland and stood there in a daze.

Then he witnessed with his own eyes the head master trying to stop his sister. Xiao Qifeng also took action at the same time, but he was targeting Gu Liancheng.

The fight between Liu Qi and Jiang Xuanyun can be described as plain and simple. The two were like beginners who only knew how to use certain moves. They only fought with swords, and there was no fluctuation of true energy in either their weapons or their bodies.

But Xu Qinghuai still noticed something was wrong at that time.

For one thing, the two of them were always fighting in mid-air.

Secondly, the moves of the two men were becoming more and more intense, so much so that in the end it looked like they were fighting to the death. Every knife and sword was aimed directly at the opponent's vital points, and every move was like a struggle on the brink of life and death.

The turning point came with Xiao Qifeng and Gu Liancheng.

After Gu Liancheng and Xiao Qifeng exchanged two moves, they actually chose to escape and leave. Xiao Qifeng did not chase after him, but turned and flew towards the direction of Liu Qi and Jiang Xuanyun, apparently intending to intervene in their fight.

But at this critical moment, Liu Qi resolutely used a move of exchanging her life for another's. She opened her heart wide and allowed Jiang Xuanyun's sword to pierce her heart. At the same time, the Cang Hai Juan Yun Blade in her hand also penetrated into Jiang Xuanyun's abdomen, and the endless killing intent bloomed on the blade...

Xu Qinghuai was about a hundred steps away from where the two men were fighting. He watched helplessly as the head master was swallowed by the sword light and the little sister he had finally found was stabbed in the heart by a sword. They fell from the sky like a kite with a broken string.

Just at the moment when the two of them had decided the winner, Xiao Qifeng finally arrived, but his figure was suspended in the air without any unnecessary movements. After standing there for a while, he turned around and left.

"I wanted to go look for you, but someone took you away first. I followed them all the way here, but was stopped outside by Nineteen." Xu Qinghuai walked slowly to the side of Liu Qi. When he saw Liu Qi's pale face, he couldn't help but show a look of heartache on his face, and then explained in a low voice.

"This battle... I miscalculated." Liu Qi, who had been silent for a while, suddenly spoke, but his words made Xu Qinghuai's heart tremble.

Liu Qi slowly lowered his eyes to look at his heart, and gently touched the place where Jiang Xuanyun's sword pierced through him. Then he said slowly, "I underestimated Jiang Xuanyun's sword energy. I thought I would have at least two breaths of time to deal with Xiao Qifeng before I died, but I didn't expect that I couldn't even last a breath."

At that time, she saw Gu Liancheng retreating and Xiao Qifeng rushing towards her. In a flash, she decided to come and exchange one life for two lives. She risked her life by getting seriously injured and first killed Jiang Xuanyun, and then used the last two breaths of her life to fight to the death with Xiao Qifeng. In this way, even if she, Liu Qi, died on the spot, she would have no regrets in this life!

The result was that she underestimated Jiang Xuanyun's sword energy and overestimated Xiao Qifeng's ambition.

At that time, both he and Jiang Xuanyun had one foot in the gate of hell. Xiao Qifeng could solve these two major problems without any effort, but he turned around and left!
Liu Qi finally understood why Gu Liancheng was able to get away from Xiao Qifeng.

Going back further, Liu Qi also understood why the great general was the most powerful person in the world during his lifetime, while Xiao Qifeng, who was no less skilled in martial arts and had talent than him, could only be inferior to him.

"Little sister, come home with me." Xu Qinghuai finally stated the purpose of his trip.

He took two steps forward with a determined look, almost sticking to Liu Qi's side, and then said in a deep voice: "Dad and Mom repeatedly told me to take good care of you, but I know that you don't need anyone's care now, but..." He paused, tears flashing in his eyes: "If Mom knew your current situation, she would definitely be sad!"

Liu Qi raised his eyes and looked deeply at his brother, then slowly shook his head in his disappointed eyes: "The capital has become a place of trouble. With your martial arts, you can't stay out of it. Why don't you go back and accompany your parents."

"As for me... I still have a lot of things to do. If I can't do these things, even if I go back to Qingjiang with you, I will just be a walking corpse in this life."

Liu Qi couldn't explain the current situation clearly, because with Xu Qinghuai's cultivation, it was difficult for him to understand what the current situation was like, and he also didn't understand what would happen to this world once the Nine Cauldrons gathered and someone stepped into the realm of extreme sublimation...

In fact…if that day really comes, let alone Qingjiang Prefecture, even at the ends of the earth, I’m afraid there won’t be an inch of peace.

"I'm tired, you go back first." Liu Qi waved his hand, signaling to see the guest off.

Liu Shijiu, who had been waiting at the door impatiently, immediately strode in and said coldly to Xu Qinghuai, "Master Xu, please come in!"

She now gets angry when she sees people wearing Taoist robes!

……

Two days later, Liu Qi finally learned about Jiang Xuanyun's injuries.

Jiang Xuanyun did not die. His left half had been completely corroded by Liu Qi's murderous intent and was difficult to recover. Fortunately, his right hand could still move freely, and the Jueling Sword Intent had not yet disappeared from the world.

This information was told to Liu Qi by Kong Sang.

At this moment, she was playing chess with Liu Qi in the main house of the manor.

Kong Sang seemed a little absent-minded. She kept looking up at Liu Qi who was sitting opposite her from time to time.

Today, Liu Qi was only wearing a thin inner garment, and the entire right sleeve and shoulder of the garment were cut off, leaving Liu Qi's entire right arm exposed, and her snow-white skin was so eye-catching.

Shila——

Suddenly, the slight sound of flesh tearing aroused Kong Sang's vigilance again. She suddenly raised her head and looked at Liu Qi's right shoulder.

A shocking crack suddenly appeared on Liu Qi's right collarbone, extending all the way to her heart. Although not a drop of blood flowed out of the crack, the green sword energy that kept tearing through the crack made Kong Sang's face darken.

"It's been two days. Is his sword intent really that terrifying?" Kong Sang asked in a deep voice.

Liu Qi picked up the chess piece and looked for a suitable place to place it on the chessboard, and then replied calmly: "Anyway, he can still hold the sword now, you can try it yourself and find out."

Kong Sang smiled charmingly upon hearing this: "I'm not as stupid as you."

As if she felt that her words were a bit presumptuous, Kong Sang immediately changed her tone and said, "Don't misunderstand, Sister Liu. I'm not as decisive as you. If I were facing Xiao Qifeng and Jiang Xuanyun, I would have run away long ago and would not have dared to take action!"

Liu Qi replied without even looking up: "If your Sparkling Blaze is unleashed, I'm afraid its power will not be much less than that of the Floating Sea."

Kong Sang blinked his eyes, then replied with a smile: "Sister Liu, please stop flattering me."

Liu Qi suddenly straightened his back, threw the chess piece in his hand back into the chess box, then raised his eyes and stared into Kong Sang's eyes, and said slowly: "Are you really not going to do it?"

Kong Sang's smile remained unchanged: "How come I don't understand what Sister Liu said?"

Liu Qi said calmly, "From the time you left the manor to the time you sat in front of me, you had three murderous intentions. Although our cultivation levels are similar and I cannot see through you, don't forget that no murderous intention in this world can surpass mine, and no murderous intention can escape my eyes."

When Kongsang heard this, the smile on his face gradually froze.

Seeing this, Liu Qi still spoke slowly with an expressionless face: "You have seen my injuries. You can attack boldly now. I can also guarantee that I will be the one to walk out of the room in the end, not you."

"Liu Qi!" Kong Sang finally put on a gloomy expression, but she just called out Liu Qi's name in a harsh voice and then fell silent.

After a while, her somewhat lonely voice rang out in the room: "It's your turn."

……

Kongsang was personally escorted out of the village by Zhou Mi and Liu Shijiu. Along the way, Kongsang was talking and laughing and seemed very approachable.

But after sending her away, Liu Nineteen returned to Liu Qi and immediately complained: "This woman must have bad intentions!"

Liu Qi looked up at Liu Nineteen in surprise: "How did you figure that out?"

Liu Nineteen said with a confident look on his face: "She has never taken her eyes off you since she saw you... That part is even more lecherous than a lecher!"

Liu Qi followed the direction of Liu Shijiu's finger and looked towards his heart, then shook his head helplessly.

"Hahaha..." Zhou Mi couldn't help but burst out laughing when she heard that. "Xiaojiu, you may not know that beauty is probably the least noteworthy thing about Xiao Liuqi. Of course, that Kongsang girl does have bad intentions as you said."

Liu Qi turned his head to look at her, and then asked: "How did you know that?"

Zhou Mi's smile faded, and he whispered, "Since I saw her, the poison in my body seems to be stirring again!"
