Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

Li Guanqi arrived at the nearest city and, through a local informant, found a black market.

However, the black market was only open at night, so Li Guanqi had to wait.

When night fell, Li Guanqi followed the informant's directions and arrived at a very hidden alley.

The strongman at the entrance was actually a Golden Core Realm expert!

Not wanting to cause trouble, he simply took out ten spirit stones and walked in.

The dark alley was lit only by faint oil lamps flickering with light.

Almost everyone setting up a stall in this alley was wearing a black robe.

This was his first time in a black market, and under the black robe, he activated his mind's eye, observing everyone's movements and expressions.

He discovered that the people here used a very special gesture to bid, with their hands covered by a black cloth so no one could see.

However, he still used his divine sense to figure out what these gestures meant.

There weren't many people coming and going, but every aura was very powerful.

In just over thirty yards, he sensed four or five Golden Core Realm cultivators.

There was even a faint pressure, comparable to the Nascent Soul Realm!

This made him even more cautious.

The stall owners in the alley tacitly kept a distance of about ten feet from each other, so even if there were crowds around a stall, it wouldn't be crowded.

Soon, Li Guanqi saw what he wanted at a strange stall.

He walked straight to the black-robed man and pointed to the four human skin masks on the ground.

Deliberately lowering his voice, he said, "I'll take them all."

After speaking, he reached out his hand. The black-robed man didn't seem surprised, and then reached out his left hand to cover their hands with the black cloth.

He first tried to make a gesture, meaning four hundred low-grade spirit stones.

But who knew that the slightly withered hand directly pinched his finger and shook it slightly.

Li Guanqi immediately understood that the old man meant the price was not acceptable.

So he said, "Any higher, and it'll be a bit expensive."

The reason he knew the price of this thing was because the Great Xia Sword Sect's points pavilion also had it.

Based on the points, he could easily figure out the price of this thing.

But then the old man's voice was transmitted into his ears.

"Little kid, these human skin masks are not ordinary things."

"Each one is a rare magic tool, capable of freely imprinting the appearance of others."

"Just put it on that person's face, and it's a good product for killing, robbing, and framing others."

He wasn't surprised that the old man called him a little kid, after all, with their hands in contact, his delicate skin couldn't escape the old man's eyes.

Then the old man made a gesture under the black cloth.

Li Guanqi reached out and grabbed the old man's hand, and whispered, "This price it is!"

Then he handed a storage bag to the old man. The old man casually glanced at it, and then gave him all four human skin masks in front of him.

Li Guanqi took the things and quickly left the black market, came to an empty alley, confirmed that no one was following him, and then disappeared into the city.

What Li Guanqi didn't know was that after he left, the eyes under the black robe stared at his departing back, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Then the black-robed man directly packed up his stall and turned to leave.

After leaving the city, Li Guanqi erased his traces along the way, and even changed directions several times.

It wasn't that he was naturally cautious, but Su Xuan had told him too many stories about the outside world.

This forced him to be careful in dealing with everything unknown.

Cultivators often have a lifespan of three to five hundred years, and even thousands or tens of thousands of years for those with higher cultivation.

From his grandfather, he had heard more than once of people who had endured for thousands of years to seek revenge.

For cultivators, time is the easiest thing to forget.

Li Guanqi took out a map, looked up at his surroundings, chose a direction, and flew low.

And the place he was going was the direction of Changfeng Manor.

On the way, he took out a human skin mask and put it on his face, gently kneading it a few times.

In the blink of an eye, he changed from a handsome young man into an inconspicuous youth.

He used his Yuan Power to change his voice, and used the Breath Concealment Technique to change his aura to the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm.

He took out a mirror and looked at himself, then cut some hair as stubble, and nodded in satisfaction.

He concealed his figure and took advantage of the night to hide himself. A black robe was inconspicuous in the dark night.

Soon he came to the mountains where Changfeng Manor was located!

Buzz!

Divine sense spread around, carefully exploring everything around him.

The roars of beasts in the forest were endless, and along the way he bypassed the auras of many monsters and came to the top of the mountain.

This place was located behind Changfeng Manor, from here he could overlook the entire manor.

Li Guanqi squatted on a branch of a large tree and looked down.

What came into view was a huge, brightly lit manor.

The manor covered an area of more than three thousand feet, which looked more impressive than Ye Feng's house.

Many figures flew out of the manor on their swords and swept in all directions, it was obvious that these people were looking for them.

Li Guanqi held his breath and carefully looked at the layout of the manor.

This Changfeng Manor was connected from front to back, with the main hall as the central axis and symmetrical buildings, giving it a sense of majesty.

However, from the front yard to the backyard, he didn't find any place that could be used to detain people.

It seems that this kind of place can only be in the very secret interior.

So he was like a very patient lone wolf, lying motionless on the tree trunk, carefully observing everything in Changfeng Manor.

He didn't move his position until the sun rose the next day.

During this period, people kept passing over his head, but he didn't choose to attack.

Attacking at this time would only alert the enemy, and he would not act easily without absolute certainty.

Suddenly!

Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself, "They're here..."

At this time, it was the time for the patrol guards in the manor to change shifts.

At this time, he realized that a team of guards composed of Foundation Establishment Realm cultivators slowly walked out of the shadows.

These people happened to be blocked from view by the houses, so Li Guanqi always thought it was a warehouse or something.

Li Guanqi narrowed his eyes, not daring to be sure that it was where Zhao Yang was being held.

At this time, a young man cursing slowly flew over in the air.

"The people ran away long ago, and we have to search, search for what."

"I'll take a piss and go back, and simply find a place to sleep today."

Li Guanqi couldn't help but secretly laugh when he heard this, "If you want to sleep, someone will send you a pillow."

Then his figure disappeared from the tree trunk like a spirit snake!!
