Taiping Inn
Chapter 16: Guide
Even though his life was in the hands of others, Yue Libie remained calm and composed, quite like an ancient strategist, and said slowly: "People in the Central Plains call young men of status and position 'gongzi'. Your status in the Central Plains must be no less than that of a Na Yan, or even higher, so I will call you 'gongzi Qin'."
Li Xuan did not say anything.
Yue Libie continued, "With the noble status of Mr. Qin, he wants to mix in a small caravan. I think he wants to hide his identity and sneak into the royal court."
Li Xuandu said coldly, "Miss Yue is a smart person. I wonder if Miss Yue has heard the saying that being too clever will lead to the loss of your life. Miss Yue guessed my intention, so there is no reason for me to let Miss Yue leave peacefully."
Yue Libie said, "I can serve as Mr. Qin's guide to the royal court. With my status, no one will embarrass Mr. Qin, and it will be much more convenient for him to do other things."
Li Xuandu smiled faintly, "Miss Yue's proposal is very much in line with my heart, but in order to prevent Miss Yue from regretting halfway, I will set a restriction on Miss Yue. If Miss Yue wants to plot against me, she must think about her own life first."
Yue Libie heard the threat in Li Xuandu's words and her face turned pale. As a member of the Golden Horde, she was not the kind of woman who would accept everything, and she would not tolerate her life being controlled by others. Naturally, she had other ideas, but after hearing what Li Xuandu said, she could only temporarily put such ideas aside.
Li Xuandu pushed the "Grandmaster" back into the scabbard at his waist, but he had no intention of taking action.
Seeing that Yue Libie was a little puzzled and curious, Li Xuandu explained: "When I pressed your shoulder just now, I had already planted sword energy in your body. If you don't satisfy me, this will be your death warrant."
Yue Libie only then realized the cruelty of the man in front of her, and he didn't even have the slightest thought of sympathizing with women, and her heart became more solemn.
Just as her thoughts were churning, she heard Li Xuandu ask, "Miss Yue, you lost so many of your personal guards and one of your bodyguards. How are you going to explain this? Don't talk about the trick of being a hero saving a beautiful woman. There are too many loopholes and you can't fool others."
Yue Libie was awed. She didn't expect that this so-called Mr. Qin was not only very powerful, but also very thoughtful. She could only say, "It depends on how long Mr. Qin will stay in the royal court. My territory and grassland are far away from the royal court. I just need to say that I left Maoqi in the territory and Mr. Qin will be my personal guard. It won't be seen through for a while."
Li Xuandu asked, "Miss Yue, are you not afraid that the Khan will be angry with you after this matter is exposed?"
Yue Libie said calmly, "Of course I am afraid, but that is a matter for the future. If I can't save my life, there will be no future."
Li Xuandu smiled slightly, "Okay, Miss Yue, please stand here and don't move. I'll be back soon."
After that, Li Xuandu disappeared in front of Yue Libie. A moment later, the corpses and the broken limbs of the beggars were all cleaned up by Li Xuandu without leaving any trace. When Li Xuandu took action just now, he was very restrained and did not change the topography of this place. The only worry was that someone could trace back what happened here through the earth's energy. However, Li Xuandu was not proficient in this. In addition to doing his best to interrupt the earth veins here, there was no other way to confuse the earth's energy. But if Li Xuandu did his best to interrupt the earth veins, it would inevitably leave huge pits and gullies, which would be a case of trying to cover up the truth.
However, Li Xuandu had other ways. It was winter and snow fell frequently on the grassland. He could not stop a heavy snowfall, but he could barely attract a heavy snowfall. As long as the heavy snow fell, this place would be white, and it would be extremely difficult to find the exact location to trace back the earth's energy.
When Yue Bieli saw the wind and clouds gathering when Li Xuandu waved his hand, he was shocked. She had heard that the shamans in the royal court could reverse the weather, but she had never seen it. This was the first time she saw what it meant to call the wind and rain.
But in a moment, the sky became completely dark, and dark clouds piled up like a dark city wall, and it seemed that snowflakes would fall at any time.
Li Xuandu took a deep breath and continued to use the method of using the five elements to pull the heavy snow down. The energy in his body was like water from a floodgate, which was quickly consumed. Even Li Xuandu, who was at this level of cultivation, felt a little strenuous.
After a moment, Yue Libie suddenly felt a slight chill on the tip of her nose.
It's snowing?
She subconsciously looked up.
It's really snowing.
The gray sky was a little white because of the falling snow. Gradually, the snow became more and more, from the initial snow grains to goose feathers. After a while, the ground was already white.
Yue Libie reached out her hand to catch a snowflake. It was not a false illusion, but a real snowflake. This made her feel a little desperate. How could she escape if this person had such a means?
Seeing the heavy snow falling, Li Xuandu withdrew his Qi, and the flying snow melted away in the sky several feet away from him. If it were normal, Li Xuandu would just let the snowflakes fall on his body and would not do so deliberately, but at this time his Qi was a little unstable, just like an ordinary person panting heavily after running, and needed to slowly calm down his Qi.
Yue Libie looked at Li Xuandu and said, "Mr. Qin's magic is admirable. After the heavy snow fell, no one could tell what happened here."
Li Xuandu smiled, "Miss Yue, you are too kind."
Yue Libie had no expression on her face, but she was a little more apprehensive in her heart. If the man in front of her was a rebellious and rude man, she would not be so afraid. The golden tent was full of such people, and she had her own ways to deal with them. But the man in front of her was different. The more polite and courteous he was to her, the more he reminded her of those cunning people in the Central Plains, who looked friendly on the surface but stabbed people in the back.
Li Xuandu didn't care what Yue Libie was thinking. Instead, he asked, "According to Miss Yue, should we continue with the caravan? Or should we go alone?"
Yue Libie's heart tightened again. She subconsciously thought that Li Xuandu was testing her. After thinking carefully, she replied, "If we follow the caravan into the royal court, as long as someone investigates it seriously, the flaw will be exposed immediately."
Li Xuandu nodded and said, "Miss Yue is right, but it is not appropriate to go directly to the royal court with Miss Yue."
Yue Libie quickly regained her composure and said, "This is just my opinion. The key is that Mr. Qin has to make a decision."
Li Xuandu looked at Yue Libie and said, "Miss Yue came from Kuyang Town. Why don't I think of a reason for Miss Yue? You met a master from the Central Plains in Liaodong, and your personal guards were killed or injured. Under the desperate escort of my loyal guard, you finally escaped. In order to avoid Ye Bu Shou's pursuit, we hid in the caravan with our identities. I won't stay in the royal court for too long. Even if someone notices something wrong, The caravan and I have already left the Golden Tent. I wonder what Miss Yue thinks of this reason? "
Yue Libie's face changed slightly: "Mr. Qin's reason is very appropriate, but Mr. Qin still needs the identity of a Golden Tent person."
Li Xuandu waved his hand: "That's not necessary. I don't speak the Golden Tent language well, and my appearance is very different from that of a Golden Tent person. If I pretend to be a Golden Tent person, it will make people suspicious. It's better to say that I am a defector from the Central Plains. For the sake of wealth and honor, and to avoid enemies, I am willing to serve under Yan. I wonder what Yan thinks?"
After a few words, Yue Libie's several ideas fell through, and the expression on her face became a little stiff. She laughed dryly: "No problem."
When Li Xuandu was in the Central Plains, he dealt with all the old people. In front of these people, Li Xuandu could not take advantage of them. It was not because Li Xuandu was immature, but because the old foxes who had experienced many storms were too cunning. Now that he met these peers, Li Xuandu had the force to rely on, so he could control them at will.
In fact, Li Xuandu had also seriously considered the issue of the caravan. It was not good to let the caravan fall into danger because of himself. However, he also thought that if the old Khan died, the royal court would be in chaos. The kings were busy fighting for the position of Khan, so how could they care about this small caravan. If the old Khan was fine, he would escort the caravan away early. I think even if the Golden Horde Royal Court found something wrong, it would not make a big fuss for a caravan.
The problem now is the girl named Yan Qing. After she became suspicious of Li Xuandu, she disliked Li Xuandu even more. She was really picky. If there was another Golden Horde girl, I was afraid that he would not be able to explain it to her.
Li Xuandu thought about it and could only say that he happened to save this Golden Horde girl from the horse thieves when he went out to practice.
