Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

"Who are you?"

These three short words were spoken with extreme coldness, his eyes fixed intently on Li Guanqi.

Accompanied by the man's True Immortal Realm pressure, coupled with his expressionless face and icy gaze.

Li Guanqi's heart was under immense pressure.

Bang! Crack!!

Li Guanqi's body stood as straight as a sword, the blue bricks beneath his feet suddenly shattered, and Li Guanqi's body abruptly lowered by two inches.

"Why are you approaching my wife and children?"

Bang!!

At this moment, Li Nanting behind him was already sweating profusely, his body slightly hunched.

Li Guanqi glanced at the man, then flipped his hand and put on the Rakshasa Mask. The cultivation realm pressure revealed by the roaring blood within his body was comparable to a Ninth Level Heaven Immortal!!

This startled Xiahou Cang.

Li Guanqi's original cultivation realm had already reached the peak of the Third Level Heaven Immortal Realm.

If he were to explode with all his strength, his aura would be no less than that of a Fifth Level Heaven Immortal cultivator.

Now, with the addition of the Rakshasa Mask's power, he forcibly raised it by three levels.

This made Li Guanqi's aura feel like that of an Eighth or Ninth Level Heaven Immortal cultivator!!

Thunderous flames spread, and three incomparably solid spiritual rhyme rings manifested, while the remaining circles of stacked spiritual rhyme rings appeared slightly illusory.

But this was enough for Xiahou Cang to treat him with respect.

Such a terrifying leap in strength was something he had never seen before!

Li Guanqi actually withstood the True Immortal pressure, protecting Li Nanting behind him.

The blood-red eyes beneath the mask stared at the man, and he slowly opened his mouth.

"Evidence."

Xiahou Cang was somewhat stunned; he was indeed only suspicious and had no evidence.

The pressure gradually dissipated...

But at this moment, the eyes beneath the mask turned cold, and he sneered.

Whoosh!!!

A jade slip shot towards the man, and Xiahou Cang caught it.

"You have no evidence, but I do."

The jade slip recorded everything in the water mirror.

Li Guanqi, without regard for the man, sat down with Li Nanting in front of him.

"Everything in here happened not far from my current restaurant."

"The aura on the deceased is exactly the same as the Blood-Tipped Flower in the box."

After Xiahou Cang finished reading everything in the jade slip, he understood somewhat in his heart.

If he wasn't mistaken, the murderer should be from North Gate City!!!

The pressure dissipated, and Xiahou Cang waved his hand to dismiss the steward.

Only the three of them remained in the room, and the man actually bowed slightly to Li Guanqi, apologizing sincerely.

"I'm sorry, the current Dixiu Bay... is not peaceful, and I was a bit paranoid. Please forgive me, young friend."

Li Guanqi slowly retracted his own pressure, took off the mask, and snorted softly to express his dissatisfaction.

However...

He was a little surprised that the city lord himself had come to see him.

The man smiled, walked to the opposite side of Li Guanqi, sat down, and gently pushed the Blood-Tipped Flower in front of him.

Li Guanqi raised his eyebrows.

"Thank you, young friend, for your help yesterday. Today's test was a bit presumptuous; consider it an apology to you, young friend."

Li Nanting's strength and weakness naturally couldn't escape Xiahou Cang's eyes.

But...

Li Guanqi's identity and temperament were a bit difficult for him to ascertain.

Calm... from beginning to end, Li Guanqi had been very calm when facing him.

His eyes were calm, without a trace of fear.

It was as if he knew that no matter what, he would be fine.

Only by possessing absolute strength, or the ability to control the situation, could he be so calm.

"Young friend, you're not a local, are you?"

Li Guanqi unceremoniously put away the Blood-Tipped Flower.

"No, just walking around and taking a look."

Xiahou Cang nodded slightly upon hearing this, smiling and nodding.

"Then that's that. I won't disturb you any longer."

"I hope you enjoy your time in Xialin City."

The man stood up, and before leaving, he gently reminded.

"If there's nothing else, you can leave as soon as possible."

Li Guanqi sat on the sofa, his brows raised, his heart feeling somewhat heavy.

Bang!

The door closed, and the steward did not come in to urge the two to leave.

Li Nanting took a few deep breaths to calm his mind, then spoke in a low voice.

"Is that person the city lord?"

"What was that spiritual light that manifested behind him?"

Li Guanqi smiled and explained that it was the manifestation of a True Immortal Realm cultivator's realm, the Nirvana Spiritual Feather.

Li Guanqi led the old man out of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion, his mind pondering the meaning of the man's words.

"Could it be because of the Frost Soul Jade Glaze?"

"Even with my current strength, I can't intervene?"

After pondering for a moment, Li Guanqi felt that this matter should not be so simple!!

Perhaps the man's words were not solely because of the Frost Soul Jade Glaze.

Because logically speaking, the man shouldn't know that Li Guanqi also knew about this matter.

His reminder was also for him to leave this...

Could it be related to the cultivator who died yesterday?

A power struggle?

Just as Li Guanqi was thinking, he suddenly quickened his pace.

Li Nanting, judging from Li Guanqi's actions, realized that something was wrong.

Without turning his head, he closely followed Li Guanqi's side.

A moment later, Li Guanqi walked on the bustling street, transmitting his voice in a low voice.

"Master, let's go to the Treasure Hall first! We're being watched!"

Whoosh!

The old man's figure disappeared instantly.

Li Guanqi then accelerated instantly, attempting to shake off the tail behind him!

He didn't know who was tracking him, or which side they belonged to...

"Could it be the murderer who returned?"

Suddenly!

A woman with a smiling face appeared not far in front of him.

The woman was extremely beautiful, with autumn-like eyes, a high nose, skin as white as snow, and straight legs.

"My name is Yu Su. If young master doesn't mind, would you like to come to my residence for a visit?"

Li Guanqi pondered for a moment, then smiled, cupped his hands, and laughed.

"Then I shall accept your kind invitation."

The woman smiled, extended her hand to lead him, and in the alleyway, there was a luxurious and enormous carriage.

Six fiery-maned horses stood quietly in place.

It was still the young groom, and they got into the carriage.

Li Guanqi and the woman sat facing each other, separated by a great distance.

Yu Su covered her mouth and giggled, softly saying.

"My blockhead husband probably wasn't very happy to meet young master, was he?"

Li Guanqi shrugged upon hearing this.

He raised his hand and lifted the curtain, and the carriage soared into the air, causing the crowd to exclaim.

And his gaze also met for a moment with a man wearing animal teeth around his neck.

Lowering the curtain, Li Guanqi chuckled softly.

"I didn't expect that miss is actually a member of the city lord's family."

Yu Su smiled very happily.

"It seems my appearance is still very young."

"May I know what young master is called?"

Li Guanqi glanced at the gentle-tempered woman and softly said.

"Li Congxin."

He didn't hide his identity. When he had to reveal the Rakshasa Mask under the man's pressure, the other party could quickly find out about him if they wanted to investigate.

"Li Congxin..."

Yu Su's eyes were full of disbelief.

"You... are you from Qinzhou?"

Li Guanqi touched his nose, not expecting that there would be someone in Qingxuan Continent who had heard of his name.

What he didn't know was that Yu Su's Yu family happened to be not far from Yongjiang in Quping Continent.
