Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Li Guanqi smiled.

It seems that Chen Ce of Winter's End City isn't as composed as he imagined.

He had barely arrived at North Sluice City before they eagerly rushed to East City to find Chu Yuan.

Weren't they afraid that after Summer's End City and North Sluice City cooperated,

only East City and Winter's End City would be left isolated and helpless, seeking cooperation to form a tripartite balance of power?

But Chen Ce of Winter's End City never expected that

after Li Guanqi arrived at North Sluice City, he would be blocked outside the gate by a servant and turn to East City!

Li Guanqi swirled the tea lid, skimming off some of the tea foam, and said calmly.

"Since City Lord Chu has chosen to cooperate in this grand scheme, why not add our Summer's End City?

If I'm not mistaken, someone from the southwest cities should have already set off for North Sluice City, right?

Even if they haven't, as long as I stay in East City for more than the time it takes an incense stick to burn, they definitely won't be able to sit still."

Li Guanqi's analysis was very accurate.

After Li Guanqi left North Sluice City, the news instantly spread throughout the six cities within the bay.

Almost everyone thought that Hu Yanlie disdained to see him.

Because the previous setbacks had also spread, Hu Yanlie gave Li Guanqi the cold shoulder.

Since they are enemies, the southwest cities have no reason to give up Hu Yanlie, a great help!!

Chu Yuan pursed his lips slightly, and the look in his eyes towards Li Guanqi changed again and again.

Before he could speak, Li Guanqi continued.

"Now that Hu Yanlie knows I'm here, he's probably expecting cooperation between East and Summer's End Cities."

"In that case, the only one Hu Yanlie can look to is Winter's End City."

"But…"

Li Guanqi paused slightly, gazing at the direction of the screen and chuckled.

"City Lord Chen should be in the mansion now, right?

The most anxious person now… isn't me."

He lowered his head, adjusted his robes, and chuckled softly.

"What makes you so confident that I will cooperate with Xiahou Cang?

Now that I'm cooperating with City Lord Chen, all that's left is your Summer's End City and North Sluice City."

"Wouldn't it be good for the four families to divide the two cities into two factions each?"

Li Guanqi shook his finger, looking into the man's eyes and said softly.

"If that's really the case, I'll immediately lead Summer's End City and North Sluice City to join the southwest cities."

Li Guanqi's calm expression was as if he was talking about a trivial matter.

"Four against two, what do you think?"

Boom!!!!

An extremely powerful pressure suddenly erupted!!

The powerful pressure was like several mountains pressing down on Li Guanqi!!!

Boom!!!

The immortal essence in Li Guanqi's body roared, he put on the ghost mask, drew his Blood Nether Sword, and slashed towards the sky!!!

Bang! Boom crackle!!

In an instant, the entire sky above the City Lord's mansion was covered in thick dark clouds.

Li Guanqi's instantaneous burst of power was terrifying, and the blood-red eyes under the mask calmly looked at the man and said.

"I advise you not to think about killing me."

"The consequences… are not something a True Immortal like you can bear."

After saying that, Li Guanqi took off his mask.

Chu Yuan's throat twitched slightly, Li Guanqi's powerful power that he had just unleashed made him terrified.

Li Guanqi's identity was also shrouded in a layer of mist at this moment.

Very few people in Qingxuan Prefecture knew Li Guanqi's identity.

Only Yu Su knew a little about Li Guanqi's affairs.

Chu Yuan's eyes flickered, and he said coldly.

"Are you threatening me?"

Li Guanqi shook his head and flicked a finger, shooting out a wisp of cold air!!

This cold air was the wisp forced out of Peng Luo's body.

It was an extremely pure ice-cold power, and it contained the aura of the Ice Soul Jade Glaze.

Chu Yuan only felt it for a moment, and his face suddenly changed drastically as he stood up!

"This is…"

Li Guanqi had a strange smile on his face, picked up a string of spirit fruits, stuffed them into his mouth, and said softly.

"This is Summer's End City's confidence."

As he spoke, he looked towards the direction of the screen and said softly.

"City Lord Chen, why don't you come out and take a look too?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a young man in a black brocade robe walked out.

The young man's features were ordinary, but his temperament was different from ordinary people, and it was obvious that he had been in a high position for a long time.

Chen Ce and Chu Yuan looked at each other.

The man raised his hand and threw the cold air in his hand to Chen Ce.

Chen Ce's face changed again and again after only feeling it.

"The appearance location of the Ice Soul Jade Glaze is indeed in Summer's End City!"

Li Guanqi put down the spirit fruit.

"How do the two adults consider it?"

The expressions on their faces changed one after another. After a long while, Chen Ce said.

"What does Xiahou Cang mean? Cooperative win-win, or just… just want to rely on us to get through the current predicament?"

"You must know that many cultivators from the southwest cities are already distributed in Summer's End City."

"No one knows when they will attack."

Li Guanqi sneered in his heart.

"Tsk, so impatient…"

On the surface, he smiled.

"Of course, it's a cooperative win-win. As for how to distribute the Ice Soul Jade Glaze, that's a matter for City Lord Xiahou to discuss with you."

"I'm only responsible for forming alliances."

Chen Ce frowned slightly when he heard this. He didn't expect Li Guanqi to throw this question to Xiahou Cang.

"Then why doesn't he come to talk in person?"

Li Guanqi curled his lips.

"If the two seniors reject City Lord Xiahou, wouldn't Hu Yanlie of North Sluice City think that he can arbitrarily manipulate City Lord Xiahou?"

After saying that, Li Guanqi pointed to the old man waiting outside.

"I gave the elder a spiritual herb. It shouldn't be a problem for him to send me out later, right?"

"People outside will only think that I had a pleasant conversation in East City, and in the end, Steward Zhang personally sent me out."

"People from the southwest cities don't know the specific situation, so naturally they don't dare to act rashly."

Chu Yuan and Chen Ce gasped.

They didn't expect that this young man's mind and city were so deep!!

Chu Yuan suddenly thought of something…

"You were deliberately blocked at the City Lord's Mansion in North Sluice City, weren't you?"

"Did you say something to that servant?"

Li Guanqi shrugged and didn't hide it from the two of them.

"It's nothing, I just scolded him a few times before we even met."

Chen Ce was shocked. He had a feeling that everything was under his control!!

Suddenly, Chen Ce said.

"How long did it take you to get from Summer's End City to North Sluice City?"

A flash of light flashed in Li Guanqi's eyes, and he took a deep look at Chen Ce.

This Winter's End City Lord is not as unbearable as he thought.

Li Guanqi chuckled softly.

"The time it takes for an incense stick to burn plus a cup of tea."

Chu Yuan, wearing a green cloud robe, saw Chen Ce's inquiring eyes, frowned, and said in a deep voice.

"The time he came to East City was less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn!"

Chen Ce took a deep breath, looked at the young man who still looked normal and was drinking tea, and murmured.

"Going out of the city swaggeringly to North Sluice City, attracting the attention of the five cities."

"Forcing me and Brother Chu to have to rush to meet and talk, so as to prevent Summer's End City and North Sluice City from uniting, and we are isolated and helpless."

"But you changed your mind at the last minute and went to East City, the purpose is to block me here too! And increased Hu Yanlie's sense of crisis."

"Even if we reject you here, you are qualified to fool Hu Yanlie and let Summer's End City become the dominant position!"

The more Chen Ce said, the more he felt that Li Guanqi was very terrifying.

The man's eyes flickered, staring at Li Guanqi's eyes, slowly approaching, and asked in a deep voice.

"If Brother Chu and I don't agree to you, what will you do?"

Li Guanqi picked up the lid of the teacup, gently held two spirit fruits, and said calmly.

"I will use the qualification to enter the Ice Soul Jade Glaze boundary to force the four cities to unite and annex East City and Winter's End City."

Li Guanqi's words had no emotional fluctuations. After speaking, he also looked up and smiled at the man who was approaching him.

"There are no enemies between forces, only interests."

Chu Yuan felt a chill down his spine, every step was calculated to death by the other party!!

Chen Ce and Chu Yuan looked at each other, and finally Chu Yuan stood up and said in a deep voice.

"Okay, East City, Winter's End, is willing to cooperate with Summer's End City!"

Li Guanqi smiled slightly when he heard this, got up, opened the lid of the cup, and stuffed the two spirit fruits into his mouth.

"Senior Chu and Senior Chen are indeed smart people."

"Then… please City Lord Chu to act in a play with me again."

"And by the way, be prepared to divide the southwest two families!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Ce felt a chill rush to the top of his head!
