Villain: Who said I came here to break off the engagement?

Li Guanhai took Xiahou Aoxue to the vast plain. The headless evil spirit was still trapped in the formation, sitting cross-legged and floating in the air. The scarlet corrupt power was like a flood that had been opened, almost filling the entire formation.

And on the grass not far from the formation, there was a man lying, tied tightly with black chains and golden immortal ropes, lying on the ground like a zongzi. It was Wei Zhe, the first-rank general manager of the Dawu Dynasty.

He was struggling, but when he saw Li Guanhai and the others coming, he simply stopped struggling. Instead, he looked at the young man who defeated him slowly and asked calmly: "What did you do to His Majesty?"

Li Guanhai shrugged and said truthfully: "I didn't do anything to him. He committed suicide."

He clearly saw that when he heard this, the blue veins on Wei Zhe's forehead bulged, and his body suddenly tensed, but relaxed the next moment.

He sighed, and a helpless look appeared on his handsome face. Then he chuckled twice as if he had accepted his fate, and shook his head and said, "Forget it. You brought me here, are you here to kill me now?"

Li Guanhai shook his head: "No, people like you who are both capable and nice to talk to are hard to come by. I don't plan to kill you, I plan to use you."

"Use?" Wei Zhe raised his eyebrows, his tone was curious, but his expression was not surprised at all, and asked with a smile: "How do you plan to use you?"

Xiahou Aoxue glanced at her husband, hesitant to speak.

"Tsk, why does this sound weird?" Li Guanhai looked strange, talking to himself, and then said: "How do you obey the emperor, just obey me."

"Heh." Wei Zhe sneered, but said nothing.

Li Guanhai frowned: "I have always been curious. With your cultivation, you can walk sideways without being invincible. The sky is high and the earth is vast, and you can gallop freely. Who can restrain you?"

"But you have stayed in the deep palace for ten years, serving as a slave and servant, obeying the emperor who only knows a little health-preserving qigong, and even being a eunuch. Why is that?"

Wei Zhe's pupils suddenly showed a cold light, but it was restrained in an instant, and he said coldly: "This is my business."

"Okay, I am a serious person and have no interest in other people's past gossip. If you don't want to talk, I won't force you." Li Guanhai shrugged and said, then changed the subject and said: "In a word, if you submit to me, you can live, or I can send you away. Life or death, you choose."

The "leave" here, of course, refers to leaving the world.

Li Guanhai knew that such a threat was useless to Wei Zhe in his current state, because he had given up struggling and started to play badly. Death might be a relief for him.

But even ants try to survive, let alone humans?

In the face of death, how many people can be truly calm?

Wei Zhe may be able to do it now, but at this moment, he is as dead as ashes and feels that there is no interest in living, so he doesn't care whether he lives or dies.

Li Guanhai saw this, so he decided to leave him alone for a few days, wait for this momentum to pass, wait for him to figure it out, and maybe he doesn't want to die anymore.

The couple returned to the tree of good fortune, and Xiaolu's seven brothers and sisters were still eating vigorously, as if they didn't see them approaching.

Xiahou Aoxue looked up at the tree of good fortune, feeling the breath of life coming towards her and covering her whole body, and sighed at the magic of creation in her heart.

Those leaves, like translucent jade, contain an extremely majestic and powerful divinity, and each leaf is an adventure.

Li Guanhai waved his hand in front of her eyes, "What are you daydreaming about?"

Xiahou Aoxue came back to her senses and shook her head, "Nothing, is there anything else?"

"Yes." Li Guanhai nodded, looked around, and said, "It's right here."

He took out the Immortal Cauldron of Creation and took out the small piece of mask fragment.

Xiahou Aoxue took it and nothing unusual happened. She turned it over and over in her palm and observed it. It seemed to be just an ordinary fragment of unknown origin, and there was nothing special about it.

"Strange."

Li Guanhai took it and observed it. He opened the Eye of the Demon Lord and also did not find anything unusual. He couldn't help but wonder, "Could it be that I opened it the wrong way?"

"Maybe it needs to be stimulated in a special way." Xiahou Aoxue reminded.

"I also think it needs to be stimulated in a special way. The question is what way should it be used?"

"I don't know about that."

The two of them studied it head to head for a long time but couldn't figure it out. They had to put the fragment away temporarily and study it later.

When leaving the inner universe, it was still night in Daluotian. The palace was dark everywhere, with broken walls and ruins, as if they had been trampled by iron hooves and invaded by war. It was very dilapidated.

"What are you going to do next?" Xiahou Aoxue suddenly asked.

Li Guanhai was about to answer, but suddenly he felt a chill in his heart, pretending to be relaxed and smiled: "I don't have anything to do, I'll just follow you."

Xiahou Aoxue glanced at him lightly, "Do whatever you want to do, I'll come to you after I finish my own business."

After saying that, without waiting for Li Guanhai to answer, she turned into a ball of golden light and dissipated.

"Huh."

Li Guanhai breathed a sigh of relief, looked around, and used the Thunder God to rush into the sky, bringing a burst of muffled thunder, and instantly disappeared.

One night, he sneaked into the Xiaoyao Marquis's Mansion late at night, slipped into the room of the Marquis's wife, Luo E, and told her that there would be great changes in the capital, and asked her to remember to bring Qin Shu with her when she left.

So, Luo E and Si Nan, who appeared to be the most beautiful girl in Baihua Tower but was actually a killer from Qingyi Tower, took Qin Shu away together.

Both of them had their seas of consciousness marked by Li Guanhai. Life and death depended on his thoughts, and he knew exactly which direction they were in.

So Li Guanhai had a clear goal and headed north.

A flash of lightning galloped through the clouds in the sky, flashing at high speed. It was not until it swept far away that the rumbling thunder echoed between heaven and earth.

The villages along the way were in a state of chaos. The sleeping women and men of the village were all awakened from their dreams, thinking that it was thunder and rain. They ran out of the house without even putting on their shoes. As a result, it was a false alarm. They only saw lightning flashes in the sky that were rapidly disappearing.

Li Guanhai flew through the clouds and mist, and appeared above a prosperous city that was still brightly lit and bustling at midnight.

He sensed that Luo E and Si Nan were both in this city. He thought they would find a more remote place, but they came here unexpectedly.

But it was not surprising. They were not fleeing, and there were no assassins chasing them. They were just seeking refuge. There was no need to hide.

This city is quite interesting. It's still so lively at this late hour. The streets are full of people. It's even more lively than the capital city which has an early curfew.

Is there another festival or something big happening?
