Chapter 875: People Who Use Poison Have Nasty Intentions

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

I want to ask you something. Both you and Xu Wuming have lived more than a century. According to the lifespan of Spirit Wheel experts, there should be other people who have lived more than a century as well, right? Why are the current top-ranked experts all less than a century old? Dont tell me that people in the past were all lousy! Ren Baqian had nothing to do and decided to get Li Fu to come and barbeque with him. There was a row of people hanging about five meters above the barbeque rack.

Ignorant people would probably think that they were roasting humans!

The aroma of roasted meat and the thick smoke from below almost made the dozen youths hanging up there cry!

Principal, will you let me down? Ill definitely pass the next exam! Zhu Hua vowed.

Oh! Ren Baqian winced. Had he ever passed any exams in the last few years?

Forget it, Ren Baqian had no expectations that he would pass.

Zhu Hua could just be a security guard after graduation!

Li Fu had learned from Ren Baqian and sprinkled some seasoning on a lamb skewer before casually replying, All dead!

Ren Baqian was surprised.

He turned to Li Fu and asked, All dead? The other experts of that era have all died? How did they die?

Spirit Wheel experts had a lifespan of about 150 years, yet there were only a few of them who remained. There werent even any who were in their seventies or eighties, and this made him curious.

It was normal for some to have died after fighting or seeking revenge through so many years, but something wasnt right for so many of them to have died.

Xu Wuming killed them! Li Fu replied faintly.

Him? Why?

He would also kill you if he saw you! he replied.

Ren Baqian frowned. According to Li Fu, there would only be one reason for Xu Wuming to kill Ren Baqian on sight.

Did he kill them because they wanted to explore the Sixty Thousand Mountains?

Yes! There were a lot of experts back then. After we discovered the information, some of them couldnt hold back any longer and contacted others to go exploring together. Then, Xu Wuming killed them Li Fu recollected.

Is he really that strong? Ren Baqian asked.

I couldnt beat him back then, Li Fu replied. He was also badly wounded at the time. Im not sure whether he has recovered after so many years, but I have now become the worlds number one expert!

Ren Baqian fell silent for a moment before sneering, Sword Maniac? Humph!

You have no idea how scary those things were! Li Fu shook his head. If you really want to go, Ill also stop you! I would rather die here than see a blood bath! When that happens, I probably wont be able to see anything in this world ever again!

As the two chatted, the students hanging up there stopped making a din and were all ears.

I will show you something that will knock you off your feet next month! Ren Baqian sneered.

Lets wait and see! Even though Li Fu said this, it was clear that he didnt believe Ren Baqian.

Oh yes, old man, I have also invited some people over! Li Yuanzhu and a few other experts! You guys can gather together later and watch that spectacular sight!

What does that have to do with me! Li Fu didnt seem to be bothered.

As for that It has just a little bit to do with you Ren Baqian laughed mischievously. I used your name to invite them!

If thats the case, you wont be able to do it. They will be able to tell at first glance At this moment, Li Fu suddenly seemed to think of something.

With a surprised look, he asked, Could that girl have written it? She actually did such a thing?

Im her husband and she is my wife Ren Baqian boasted. Isnt it just writing a letter?

Humph! Li Fu sneered.

Her Majesty still remains undefeated. Its a good time to gather all of them and defeat them in one fell swoop! Ren Baqian said casually.

Im afraid that you will all die too! Li Fu didnt believe his nonsense.

The empress was powerful, but only because she was talented. It was truly rare for someone to be so strong at her age.

She might even surpass Li Fu in a few years time.

However, there were still people who were stronger than her at the moment.

At the very least, there was still Li Yuanzhu.

Even though there were many experts in Dayao, they were still no match for the top ranked experts. They might even be killed in the process.

Why would the empress do such an unwise thing?

Youll know when the time comes. So, you dont really mind that I used your name to invite them? Ren Baqian began to wonder as the old man was way too calm about this.

Ill explain it to them if they really come. They can only blame themselves for being stupid! How could they blame me for it? Li Fu sneered.

How imposing! Ren Baqian commended and gave a thumbs up.

Im waiting to see the show that youll put on. If you mess it up, you will lose the respect of everyone in the dynasty. The empress wont let you off either! Li Fu replied, waiting to see what Ren Baqian had in store.

Furthermore, be cautious of Xu Wuming. If he knows of your intention, even the empress wont be able to save you! Dont count on me to help you stop him either!

Why would I put myself out there if I cant even handle him? I might as well lead a good and simple life! Ren Baqian laughed.

At the same time, Li Yuanzhu took Ning Qing and came down the mountain.

We are finally out! Im bored to death! Ning Qing immediately cheered when she arrived at the foot of the mountain.

You better know your place on the road. Dont create any trouble, especially when we reach Dayao. That person might not even care about me! Li Yuanzhu reminded her.

How would they dare! Qi Zixiao is just the fourth most powerful expert in the worldyou are stronger than her! Other than those two old fellows, nobody else can be compared to you! Ning Qing immediately jumped to attention.

Li Yuanzhu shook her head and made up her mind that she had to look out for Ning Qing throughout the entire trip.

Half a month after Li Yuanzhu set off, Ma Hongyu called a few disciples over and ordered, Follow me to settle something. Go and pack your bags. We will set off in two days. We may get into a fight this time, so be careful! This is also a chance for you to hone your skills!

Xu Gongsou and Tong Yan both brought along a few experts from their sects, but the two reacted very differently. The former was very enthusiastic as he might be able to obtain something that would be useful for his breakthrough.

On the other hand, Tong Yan, the leader of Righteous Sect, was prepared to go and watch a good show. If there was a good opportunity, he would definitely seize it. If not, he would just walk away and become a stepping stone for others.

More importantly, he knew some things as the leader of the sect. As a result, he was indifferent to the issue of breaking through.

Based on how far the experts were from their destination, they successively departed within a two week period of each other. Their destination was a hilly area northwest of Dayao!

One day, two men carrying swords and dressed as scholars arrived at Lan City.

The people here arent friendly at all! One of them started to wince after looking at the pedestrians as well as the poles on the side of the street.

Along the way, many aboriginal males deliberately flexed their arms as they walked by to show off their biceps and chest muscles, displaying a subtle threat.

Needless to say, their faces looked extremely fierce as well.

Fortunately, these people didnt create trouble, and the two men managed to avoid conflict.

Brother Ling, be careful later, one of them whispered.

You can still flee from others, but Im afraid that you wont be able to escape from the grasp of Qi Zixiao! Just play it by ear! the other man replied.

Im not worried about Qi Zixiao Im not worried that she will attack us if we dont provoke her. Be careful of that Zhao Prince Consort!

Why?

People who use poison have bad intentions!

One of them was Du Mengyang, who was 28 years old.

The other was Ling Du, who was 34 years old.

Both were masters from Dream.

There were now two groups of sword masters. One was Shadow Dream while the other was Hidden Dream.

After Qing Lian passed the information to these two groups, members of Hidden Dream didnt show much interest. However, many of those in Shadow Dream felt that this was a good opportunity.

Most of them werent overly ambitious, but they wished to make use of worldly resources so that they didnt have to stay in the wilderness their entire lives.

Therefore, after receiving this news, these two Spirit Wheel level sword masters came in person to meet Ren Baqian.
