And this boast, in front of Li Changxun’s drop of water and Yun Ziliang’s ten Big Dragons, beca a ridiculous boorang.
If Li Zougui dared not take Zhou Xuan away, then with his own power, he would utterly disgrace Mr. Ye’s Tangkou.
But if he forcibly took Zhou Xuan away — even his life would be lost.
"Second Master Li, keep your spirits up, don’t lose face. Go forward, let and Grandmaster Yun take a good look at how you plan to take away our Mingjiang Prefecture’s great master."
Li Changxun and Yun Ziliang were in no rush to take Li Zougui’s life. The two Dragon Seeking elders were like cats that caught a mouse; it would be dull to kill it directly without playing it to death.
The onlookers around also knew that today, Li Zougui was finished. Being simultaneously targeted by a Dragon Seeking Grandmaster from three hundred years ago and a Dragon Seeking God above nine incense was a path with no survival.
Thus, the spectators, regardless of Li Zougui’s forr power in the mansion, mocked him as if "enjoying the show, not fearing escalating the situation."
"Li Zougui, where’s your earlier montum? Don’t be a coward now."
"If I were you, since I’m losing face and life anyway, I’d take a few steps towards the great master. That way, at least I can die with so dignity."
"Second Master Li, Mr. Ye’s fa is worth more than your life."
"Take a couple of steps forward, keep your spirits up, don’t lose face."
The spectators had long suffered under Mr. Ye; now, with a rare chance to vent, they showed no rcy toward Li Zougui.
Sweat was constantly streaming down Li Zougui, his hair damp and sticking to his forehead.
He regretted deeply that he didn’t heed Mr. Bai Liu’s advice.
If only he hadn’t forced his way through, the situation might have had room for a turnaround.
He felt powerless, powerless that his years of cultivating incense power were so vulnerable before nine incense sticks.
He recalled a question he had asked Master years ago.
"Master, I’ve broken through to eight incense sticks. How much difference is there with your nine incense sticks?"
"The difference between Heaven and Earth. With a single leaf, a single blade of grass, I could kill you."
At the ti, Li Zougui thought it was Master’s boasting. Now it seed, it was no lie.
The line of nine incense sticks, once crossed, made one a Human World God. If not, even sitting at eight looking at nine was still just a mortal.
"Li Zougui, don’t just stand there dumbly. Are all of Mr. Ye’s Tangkou like you; dumb and foolish? Take a couple of steps forward and spar with my drop of water."
Li Changxun called out to Li Zougui.
Li Zougui was drenched; the jibes of the onlookers no longer reached his ears as he was preoccupied with thoughts of how to escape.
"You two, causing trouble again in Jingchuan Prefecture?"
When Li Zougui was at a standstill, unable to advance or retreat, Zhou Xuan finally awoke from his ditative state.
During his ditation, he saw a door in the world of the Kongming Mirror.
Behind that door seed to lie all beings; he perceived the reincarnation of countless lives beyond the door. He wished to open that door, relying on the Power of Faith to push it open. Opening the door would reveal all beings.
But before the Power of Faith was exhausted, he only managed to shake the door slightly, not even opening a crack.
Once the faith used to aid his ditation was spent, Zhou Xuan naturally woke up.
Upon awakening, he saw a dense crowd around him and not far off, a middle-aged man with potent incense power but scared to move.
Unclear about the current situation, he inquired within the Secret Realm, asking Miss Qiang and the Engineer.
During Zhou Xuan’s ditation, these two did not enter the state.
Imdiately, they explained everything that had transpired to Zhou Xuan, clear and detailed.
"Oh, so Mr. Ye wanted to take advantage of my ditation to abduct to the Main Hall. This Mr. Ye is sothing."
Zhou Xuan’s mind turned, seamlessly entering the ongoing confrontation.
"Xuanzi, you’re awake. Li Zougui wants to take you to Mr. Ye’s Main Hall."
"Great Master, Mr. Ye is disregarding our Dragon Seeking Hall. We’re just about to vent our anger on him."
Their intervention was both to protect Zhou Xuan and to surpass Mr. Ye’s Tangkou.
Zhou Xuan then smiled, waving to Li Zougui: "Second Master Li, it’s better to resolve enmity than to maintain it. Today’s situation has beco rather tense."
Zhou Xuan’s words were gentle, polite, yet fell on Li Zougui’s ears like a lifeline.
"Indeed, indeed, Great Master, it’s better to resolve enmity than to maintain it. We’re all living the life of licking blood off the blade’s edge in the martial world, why make things difficult for each other?"
Li Zougui nodded repeatedly towards Zhou Xuan like a pecking chicken.
Zhou Xuan walked up to him, pointing at the distant body of Thirteen Hours, saying: "Second Master, our Li Shanzu, his temper isn’t great, eager to save , he slayed your disciples. What are your thoughts?"
"Those disciples... they got what they deserved. They often bullied n and won, making Jingchuan Prefecture uneasy. I had long wanted to clean house, but was reluctant due to our shared bond."
Li Zougui responded earnestly.
"You’re speaking too softly, I can’t hear you clearly. Speak up, show so masculinity."
Zhou Xuan said with a gentle smile.
He appeared amiable, but there seed to be a sense of compelling authority in his words.
"They... they..."
