Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became a little heavy.

The initiative of the conversation in the entire hall instantly fell on Li Guanqi.

Li Guanqi leaned his body slightly forward, staring at the two people in front of him and said softly.

“If City Lord Xiahou sincerely wanted to thank me in person, he should have come to the tavern where I was staying today.”

“Instead of the Vientiane Tower's private room.”

“Out of curiosity, I asked about the Blood Thistle Flower. City Lord Xiahou thought I was sent by other forces, so he tested me on the spot.”

“As for the result… it was unexpected, but he also realized that my strength was not bad, and could even be said to be surprisingly strong.”

“That's why Madam Yu came out to invite me.”

Li Guanqi analyzed everything that happened in a very calm voice.

Slowly sitting up straight, Li Guanqi picked up the teacup and took a sip.

He raised his eyes to look at the two people whose expressions were changing and said softly.

“City Lord Xiahou once reminded me to leave Dixiu Bay as soon as possible, presumably because of the constant friction between the six cities in the bay recently.”

“And you, after confirming that I am an outsider, wanted me to be a 'game breaker!'”

“Even Madam Yu came in person, just to let the North Gate City's spies see me get on the carriage to the City Lord's Mansion.”

Clang!

The teacup fell gently on the table, Li Guanqi shook the tea stains on his hands, and said with his head down.

“You two… you really have a lot of twists and turns in your hearts.”

Xiahou Cang took a breath of cold air, and his pupils shrank slightly.

The woman on the side changed her expression slightly, and looked at Li Guanqi in horror!!

Is this… is this really someone who doesn't know anything?

Such words are no different from listening to the wind by their pillows!!

Looking at the young man with a calm expression, Xiahou Cang felt a little fear for the first time because of a person's mind.

Looking at the pair of white eyes that the young man raised to look directly at him, Xiahou Cang had the illusion of being seen through!!

Li Guanqi sighed inwardly and shook his head.

Since ascending to the Immortal Realm, everyone he has met, although their minds and scheming are more ruthless and cautious than the cultivators in the Spirit Realm.

But… the schemes are too poor.

Compared with Cang Lu, Sha, Youming, and Xun Tian in the Human Spirit Realm, they are not enemies on the same level at all.

Including the last hidden enemy in the Human Spirit Realm.

The one… who took away his sister's ashes.

His endurance is comparable to a poisonous snake!

In the process of confronting those people, Li Guanqi repeatedly felt the pressure of being forced into a desperate situation by the other party.

But the people he meets now, whether it is conspiracy or open conspiracy, are simply child's play.

In his opinion, these people don't even have the qualifications to climb onto that chess game.

Not to mention becoming pawns at that level.

Xiahou Cang took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.

“Xiahou… admires you!”

“Since little friend has guessed many things, then I won’t hide it.”

“I will be frank with little friend, and as for how to decide, it’s all up to little friend’s own consideration.”

Li Guanqi nodded slightly, now this is considered to be getting to the point.

The man's voice was low and deep.

“Little friend should know the current situation of the six cities in the bay, so I won’t talk nonsense.”

“The two southwestern cities have been family friends since the beginning of their establishment, and there have been many marriages.”

“Now there is a trend of uniting with Donglin City.”

“Because of the folk customs of North Gate City and the way Huyan Lie is as a person, he has never had any allies, so he came to me.”

“As for our Xialin City, we have some contact with Dong City, but…”

Li Guanqi said bluntly: “Your alliance with Dong City is based on mutual benefits?”

The man's eyes lit up and he nodded slightly.

“Dong City also belongs to the neutral party and doesn’t get involved in too many things.”

“Now there are many frictions between the six cities in secret, and disputes are about to arise…”

Li Guanqi frowned slightly. Logically speaking, the six cities in the bay have been living in peace for so many years, and they should not easily start a war…

Li Guanqi closed his eyes and concentrated, his expressionless contemplation made Yu Su and the man dare not disturb him.

After a while, Li Guanqi got up to leave.

Xiahou Cang and the woman quickly got up.

“Young Master Li!! Young Master Li, are you leaving?”

The woman said anxiously, now the situation of Xialin City and North Gate City is similar, very embarrassing.

If the six cities really start a war, once Dong City does not join forces with Xialin City, Xialin City will become the target of public criticism!!

“It seems that this guy is not honest, and he still has something to hide from me even now!!”

Li Guanqi raised his foot and walked out of the door, looking at Xiahou Cang with narrowed eyes and said in a deep voice.

“City Lord Xiahou is not sincere, so there is no need to talk about it!”

Xiahou Cang's expression froze, and it was just this moment of micro-expression that made Li Guanqi even more convinced of his guess!

Yu Su's eyes showed anxiety, she reached out and tugged at Xiahou Cang's sleeve, her beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed!

“Now that things have come to this, what does it matter if you tell him!”

Xiahou Cang's eyes flickered with complex colors, and he whispered to Yu Su.

“This matter is of great importance, he is just a mere Celestial Immortal, why do you trust him so much?”

“With my connections, wouldn’t it be better to find a True Immortal to help?”

Yu Su took a deep breath, turned her back to the direction of Li Guanqi and whispered.

“Do you think the other five cities will let you find a True Immortal to help?”

“To put it bluntly, this matter is ultimately a matter of Dixiu Bay itself, and you don’t want outsiders to interfere.”

“Now the other five cities have no movement, isn’t it just because they don’t want to publicize it?”

“The backbone of this matter in the end will still be Celestial Immortal Realm cultivators!”

“Celestial Immortal Realm, even Celestial Immortal Ninth Heaven Realm cultivators… compared to him, who do you think will die in the current situation?”

Xiahou Cang's expression froze, his pupils contracted slightly, and his mouth opened slightly.

According to what Yu Su said, without even thinking about it, he felt that the other party could kill others without even having to take action himself…

Moreover, Yu Su was right, regarding this matter, the six city lords had a tacit understanding not to choose to involve outsiders.

Looking at Li Guanqi who had already walked out of the front yard, Xiahou Cang gritted his teeth, flashed and stood in front of Li Guanqi, cupping his hands slightly and bowing.

“I’m sorry, Young Master Li, it’s just… this matter is of great importance, I must be cautious.”

Li Guanqi no longer had any intention of getting involved in this matter.

He plans to hide his identity and whereabouts regarding the Cold Soul Jade Glaze.

As for the friction and power disputes between the six cities, he doesn't want to get involved too much.

“City Lord Xiahou, I still won’t get involved in this matter.”

Li Guanqi's impression of Xiahou Cang was not very good, this person was too cautious.

He was so cautious that he didn't seem as decisive as Yu Su.

However, just as Li Guanqi and the man passed by, Xiahou Cang finally told the truth!

“The aura of Cold Soul Jade Glaze has appeared in Dixiu Bay, and it is actually in Xialin City!”
