“Say something practical.”
“Oh, alright, Lord Bazhun’an…” Li Fugui swallowed nervously, unhesitatingly betraying Lord Shou, “Lord Shou’s bottom line is that you don’t need to send the others. At the very least, you must return Master Siren to us.”
“I’ll consider it.”
“This isn’t something to consider, Lord Shou is in grave danger!” Li Fugui added this himself, mimicking Lord Shou’s tone.
“Anything else?”
“No, that’s it. You must hurry, or Lord Shou won’t hold out.” Li Fugui added another line on his own.
“I’ll consider it.” The communication bead paused, then resumed, “Your name is Li Fugui?”
Li Fugui shivered, quickly moving the communication bead away. “Hello? Lord… Bazhun’an?”
“Are you Li Fugui?” Bazhun’an repeated.
Li Fugui’s face turned green, clutching his neck, his voice faltering.
“Did… you hear me? Lord… Bazhun… something?”
Silence from the other end.
Seizing the opportunity, Li Fugui cut the communication, his face ashen.
He sat in the carriage and was dazed for half the day, lost in thought.
Eventually, Li Fugui shook his head, resolving his conflicted emotions.
“To think he knows me…”
He retrieved the communication bead, chuckled wryly, and then took out a Blood Tree’s Yin Branch, infusing it with spiritual source. He said respectfully:
“Please, Senior Dragon Apricot, assist me.”
This was Lord Shou’s second plan!
He claimed that this Blood Tree’s Yin Branch could connect to Yama’s Five Decays of Heaven and Man.
If he could summon him, despite Dao Qiongcang’s meticulous schemes, there might be a chance of an unexpected outcome.
If not…
Li Fugui had seen what happened in the Apricot Realm.
Five Decays of Heaven and Man had faced Hallmaster Dao and self-destructed in less than a round—they weren’t on the same level!
It was entirely normal if he failed to summon him.
After all, Five Decays of Heaven and Man had already died once.
Though he didn’t understand why Lord Shou insisted on summoning a dead man, there was always a deeper purpose to Lord Shou’s actions.
Summoning was the right choice!
“Hum…”
The Blood Tree’s Yin Branch emitted a faint golden glow.
Simultaneously, Li Fugui, still in the carriage, felt as though he had plunged into an icy cellar.
He heard the mournful sound of the cold wind and felt his thoughts being drawn towards an eerie place.
“Senior Dragon Apricot, please protect me!”
Li Fugui whispered, genuinely afraid.
The power of the dead saint lingered, and the reputation of the Body of Decay was terrifying; he didn’t want any surprises.
After invoking the plea, a faint golden light surrounded him, and Li Fugui felt he could barely maintain control of his consciousness.
He heard winds that didn’t belong to the carriage shop and before his eyes appeared an ancient tomb.
“Please, don’t let me see!” Li Fugui cried out in terror, closing his eyes, but the image persisted in his mind.
“Senior Dragon Apricot!” He panicked.
Hum!
The golden light on the Blood Tree’s Yin Branch flared again, silencing the eerie wind in Li Fugui’s ears and banishing the tomb from his mind.
The branch trembled in his hand, and a weak voice came through.
“Xu… Xiao… Shou?”
Li Fugui shuddered and quickly retrieved a sound recording bead, pressing it to play Lord Shou’s voice:
“Qingyuan Mountain, come if you seek revenge. I’ll be waiting.”
Having done all this without a moment’s delay, Li Fugui swiftly severed his connection with the Blood Tree’s Yin Branch.
He stowed the ominous artifact in a separate spatial ring, hastily unbinding the ring’s connection to his blood.
“Splish splash…”
Using saint water from the Apricot Realm, he cleansed himself and changed into fresh clothes in the carriage, feeling the bad luck wash away.
He draped himself in a black cloak, changed his appearance, donned a mask, and then retrieved a teleportation portal disc.
“Activate!”
The spiritual source vibrated.
The Spatial Teleportation Array Wheel activated.
Li Fugui arrived at the underground market north of Changde Town.
He had one more task: deliver a sound recording bead that could summon the demi-saint Ye Xiaotian to someone in Changde Town.
This “someone” could be an assassin or anyone else, as long as it wasn’t himself.
This was Lord Shou’s third plan!
If all else failed, he might have to take someone with him, but there was a chance he couldn’t return to the Apricot Realm.
Since Lord Shou’s main form had not yet awakened, he would have to implicate the Spatial Upanishad.
As for how Ye Xiaotian would handle the pursuit by the Holy Divine Palace, that was a matter to be addressed later.
“Hum!”
As soon as he landed, a bright light emanated from Qingyuan Mountain, piercing through the darkness.
Li Fugui froze, gazing into the distance, catching sight of the mountain partially covered by intricate divine path patterns.
“This is…”
Had the battlefield shifted?
Had they fought all the way from Changde Town to Qingyuan Mountain?
Furrowing his brow, Li Fugui cautiously extended his spiritual senses towards Changde Town, soon witnessing the aftermath of a battle in the ruins of the town.
There were hardly any conscious survivors, but the wails were earth-shattering.
“Hmm? Crying?”
Without leaving a trace, Li Fugui slipped into Changde Town, ready to retreat at any moment.
Soon, he spotted a burly man at the former Cao’s Blacksmith Shop, cradling a large wine barrel and sobbing bitterly.
Other than him, the town seemed safe?
As a former intelligence operative of the Flower Pavilion, Li Fugui’s professional instincts kicked in. With just a glance, he recognized who the large man was.
“Cao Erzhu!”
According to the latest intelligence from the Flower Pavilion, there was little information about the blacksmith shop, but it was speculated that Cao Erzhu might not be the brightest…
