A large egg had just entered the shrunken belly of the Qilin.
As the Qilin lay there, its belly swollen, Li Guanyi poked at its stomach with a finger, each poke leaving a dent, laughing as he asked, “How is the recovery?”
The Qilin burped loudly.
The burp was a burst of fire, released into the air.
Patting its belly, it said, “Perfect!”
“The foundation still needs much work, but —”
It seed to smile, its mouth curling amidst twirls of red flas and its eyes turning pure gold, slowly releasing an imposing aura that belonged to a creature in the top five of the Divine Beast List:
“Another fight, and then fleeing with you two, should be no problem!”
As this aura spread, the Little Qilin grinned broadly, bragging:
“Hunt ?
Hmph, Grandpa Qilin will burn you all!”
It paused, as if for emphasis, and viciously slashed the air with its claw: “Burn you all!”
Then, it was suddenly flipped over by Li Guanyi.
Elder Xue’s letter arrived quickly, accompanied by a seal.
Xue Zhaoji personally went to the City Lord Mansion to deliver the ssage, and Li Guanyi rely waited silently for the ti, the ti for this indirect confrontation with Yuwen Lie, and for his and his aunt’s departure.
The Yue Family Army’s breakout.
And the reckoning with the Yuwen Family, the strike on the Yin Yang Reincarnation Sect, was just about ready to close the net.
However, on the third day, soone from the Xue Family suddenly found him.
It was a confidant of Xue Zhaoji, looking anxious, saying, “Not good, Tower Master!”
“Master Xue went to the City Lord Mansion, and he hasn’t co out for three days!”
“And there are no signs of troops being mobilized!”
“This, this!!!”
Li Guanyi’s expression paused briefly, the young strategist’s first deploynt was in jeopardy, but he quickly realized where the problem lay.
He looked up towards the City Lord Mansion imrsed in the night, imposing as ever, and said, “The City Lord…
there’s also a problem there, has he made an alliance with the Yuwen Family?”
Upon considering this, anger did not appear in Li Guanyi’s heart.
Instead, a calm and helpless feeling erged, as if he wanted to laugh out loud.
It felt both absurd and reasonable.
However, this was Zhenbei City.
Zhenbei City, the foremost Heroic City, fortified by Mo Family chanisms, guarded by thirty thousand elite troops, a top-tier force.
If this force and its arrangent were given to the stoic and fiercely loyal Lu Youxian, that silent and calm old man would make a two-hundred-thousand-strong army wear down their teeth trying to breach without success, causing even generals more proficient in Martial Arts than himself to die of rage.
And yet, here was this Heroic City, whose City Lord had made contact with the Yuwen Family.
He even detained the seal of the Pri Minister from the Xue Family and the ssenger.
Such a person could harbor double allegiances.
Chen Dingye, oh Chen Dingye.
What worthless garbage!!!
“This City Lord is a wallflower, vain and duplicitous, hedging his bets.”
Li Guanyi made his judgnt, then comforted the worried confidant of Xue Zhaoji in a soothing voice, “You need not worry, Master Xue represents Elder Xue, who is at the peak of his power.
Given that the situation is still unclear, this City Lord would not go as far as to openly beco an enemy of Elder Xue, it’s just that at the mont Master Xue is trapped.”
This confidant, akin to a son to Xue Zhaoji, still managed to control his emotions and said, “Yes, the seal is also with him.
Without the Tiger Talisman for troop mobilization, the troops of Zhenbei City won’t move, unless a special figure speaks up.”
Li Guanyi remained silent for a long while, then said, “I understand; just be patient.”
The young man was persuaded by Li Guanyi to go back and rest.
Li Guanyi stood by the window.
He had just not ntioned that Yuwen Hua was also there.
Yuwen Hua might very well force the City Lord to pick a side and deal harshly with Xue Zhaoji.
Looking out at Zhenbei City, holding the sword in his hand, this heroic city stood imposingly, the barriers of Green Steel Rock towering like giants watching over the city’s inhabitants.
At this mont, his aunt was already preparing to break away, and the eight thousand cavalry of the Yue Family Army were drawing near to this place.
And with the City Lord harboring double allegiances, four Grandmasters had co to this city.
There were too many ambitious powers in the world, each with their own pursuits and desires; like dragons and tigers they lay in wait, constantly battling, never as straightforward as predictions suggested, which was exactly why the world was in such a state of turbulent, splendid uproar.
Breaking Army, if only you were here.
But you are not, and I have my own ways.
If I couldn’t make it without you, then it wouldn’t be worth your loyalty, would it?
Li Guanyi smiled freely, gripping his sword, resolute.
He already had a plan!
