You Promised to Be an Idle Son-in-Law, How Could You Become a Land Immortal? Chapter 209 - 187: You Are a Genius

His two Body and Footwork Techniques and the Dragon-Falling Spear Technique still had room for improvent.

Especially the Dragon-Falling Spear.

Every ti he practiced it, it would stir the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi and layer his Dao Intent, creating quite a commotion.

Because Xie Tingyun and Shen Huatang were around, he hadn’t practiced this Spear Technique in a long ti.

Of course, to avoid any unnecessary trouble, Chen Yi didn’t use the Five-section Spear at this mont either.

He only practiced the teor Butterfly Step and the Wandering Dragon and Phoenix Step Technique in the main hall, just to have sothing to do.

「About an hour later.」

Liu Lang hurried over, and the mont he saw him, he said with a wide smile:

"Boss, you’re truly clairvoyant."

Chen Yi raised an eyebrow slightly and asked, "Are the Five Poison Sect and Liu Zhaoxue plotting sothing big?"

"More than that."

"When I went over last night, on top of overhearing Yan Fusha—the one from the Five Poison Sect—discussing the plot to murder Liu Wen with Liu Zhaoxue, I also ran into soone from Black Tooth."

"Oh? Tell the details."

After Liu Lang finished speaking, Chen Yi was amused as well.

"I’ll credit you for this."

It turned out that last night, after Liu Lang ran into the person from Black Tooth sent to confirm Chen Yi’s identity, he had disguised himself as a Liu Family Guard and told the man a few things about "Liu Wu."

He said that Liu Wu had studied under the dical Saint Hand of Xinglin Hall and had once cured the illness of a very important person.

He also claid that Liu Wu had astounding talent in the Martial Arts, achieving Minor Success in the Fist Dao before he was even twenty.

All in all, he sent the man back with that information.

Basically, as long as Black Tooth and Lou Yuxue don’t go to the Jing State Liu Family, his "Liu Wu" identity is unlikely to be exposed.

Liu Lang patted the long blade at his waist and said, "Can’t let the boss give a fine blade for nothing."

Chen Yi smiled, but his mind was on Liu Zhaoxue and the Five Poison Sect.

He had originally thought that the competition for the Patriarch position among the direct descendants of this generation’s Liu Family would have rules against taking lives.

Now it seed both Liu Wen and Liu Zhaoxue were more ruthless than he had anticipated.

"Plotting to murder her own brother... Liu Zhaoxue is the more vicious one."

Hearing his words, Liu Lang nodded in agreent. "She’s ruthless, alright."

"Having the Five Poison Sect kill Liu Wen and fra the Xiao Family, all while she hides in the shadows... you have to admit it’s a venomous plan."

At this point, he glanced at Chen Yi’s expression and couldn’t help but ask:

"Boss, what are you planning to do?"

"Nothing."

"Huh?"

"What ’huh’? It’s perfect to let the dogs fight it out. Saves us from getting our hands dirty."

Chen Yi shot him a glance and said coolly, "Besides, I’m not a bloodthirsty person."

Originally, he had only planned to set a trap for Liu Wen, giving the Xiao Family a reason to make a move.

But how things developed after that...

In other words, whether Liu Wen lived or died would depend on the outco of the struggle between the Old Patriarch and the Liu Family.

But now...

After trapping Liu Wen, he didn’t mind giving this Liu Zhaoxue a little push.

As long as the bla for Liu Wen’s death didn’t fall on the Xiao Family, this affair would surely stir up internal strife within the Liu Family.

After a mont of thought.

Chen Yi instructed, "Tonight, after you’ve visited the Liu Family’s estate, go to the Spring Rain Building and ask about Black Tooth’s progress."

Liu Lang nodded in acknowledgnt, a slight smile appearing on his face. "Boss, if you don’t mind saying sothing I probably shouldn’t..."

"If word of what you’re doing gets out, the Bright Moon Building will definitely not let you off the hook."

Chen Yi glanced at him. "They won’t let *us* off the hook."

"...That promise I made to do thirty things for you... it was indeed a bit shortsighted."

Outsiders might not know the true nature of the Bright Moon Building, but Liu Lang, who had operated within its circles, was naturally aware of so of its secrets.

Besides Black Tooth, the Bright Moon Building also had twelve Elders, each responsible for one of Great Wei’s Nine States and Three Prefectures, and their strength had all reached the Upper Three Grades Realm.

Furthermore, above them were four Protectors and the enigmatic Master of the Building.

This alone surpassed the strength of over ninety percent of the sects and holy lands in Great Wei.

Add to that the various Jianghu People who held Bright Moon Building Identity Tokens, and their power was far beyond what an ordinary person could provoke.

If the Bright Moon Building truly discovered what the two of them were up to, they would face endless trouble in the future, even with the Xiao Family’s protection.

Liu Lang knew all this, but he was in too deep to back out now; he could only see it through to the end.

Of course, setting all that aside, he did find what they were doing to be impressively daring.

If word of this got out in the future, it would only make his title, the "Sword Madman," ring even louder.

At the very least, he could say he dared to tweak the Bright Moon Building’s whiskers.

Just as Liu Lang was getting up to leave, Chen Yi added a reminder:

"If you get any leads from Black Tooth, rember to have Wang Ji inform . He knows where to find ."

"Alright."

After he left, Chen Yi didn’t linger. He removed his disguise and headed straight for the Xiao Family estate.

As the ti for Black Tooth and the Lady Tiger’s sche drew closer, he felt a growing sense of urgency.

’I still need to think this through carefully.’

’Considering the ti, Xiao Jinghong should have seen that letter by now.’

’There’s no movent in Shu State City yet... That’s a good thing.’
