Li Hao walked slowly behind them. The sun shone on his determined face. Although there was stubble on his mouth, his eyes were shining with a burning light.
"Hey, Li Hao, hurry up!”
"Haha, I can only blame someone for being too good at cooking. My stomach is so bloated that it's difficult for me to walk.”
"You have a glib tongue!" Xiao Hui laughed.
"Hey! Where are you taking me?" Li Hao asked and quickened his pace.
"Seeing that you're listless all day, looking like you've lost your soul, I naturally took you to solve the problem.”
"Difficult problem?" Li Hao was slightly stunned, then said happily,""I, the poison in me, can it really be cured?”
"I don't know, but if he doesn't have it, I'm afraid no one in the Jiangnan generation can solve it."”
"Thank you, Xiao Hui." Li Hao thought to himself.
Along the way, the two of them didn't talk about anything about being poisoned. Instead, they chatted, toured the mountains, played, and chased each other.
The two of them walked for a full two hours before they finally arrived at a small green grassland. There was a bright river on the plain, and the waves were like stars.
At this moment, Xiao Hui slowed down. She looked at the thatched cottage not far away, stroked her hair, and said softly,"The person who can cure your poison lives here.”
Li Hao looked at the small room built with bricks, mud, and a pile of straw. He nodded and felt uneasy. He didn't know if this person had a way to detoxify his poison.
"Senior Alchemist Saint, please grant me an audience." Xiao Hui shouted at the house twice, but there was no response from the house. It was as if a stone had sunk into the sea.
"No one?" Li Hao asked softly.
Xiao Hui shook her head and replied softly,""I'm not sure either. If he's not here, we can only wait here. This alchemist saint has a strange temper and is arrogant. If we rashly enter, he definitely won't cure your poison.”
"Saint Alchemist?" "Why didn't I hear Master mention it before?" Li Hao raised his eyebrows.”
Xiao Hui smiled mysteriously." There are so many strange people in Jianghu. It's not surprising that you don't know. Your master never leaves his house. How much can he know about the outside world?"”
Li Hao shook his head and smiled. He teased,""Then I'll have to listen to Heroine Hui's explanation.”
"Pfft." Xiao Hui laughed unhappily, stretched out her delicate fist, and hit Li Hao's arm coquettishly.""When did you learn to be so frivolous?”
The two of them wore simple clothes and sat on the ground. The breeze blew and their hair fluttered. Xiao Hui opened her red lips and spat out fragrant orchids."This Saint Alchemist keeps a low profile and his background is unknown. He became famous five years ago because he did something that shocked the martial world.”
"What is it?" Li Hao asked.
" Four years ago, the Saint Alchemist was still unknown and nobody knew about him. However, he did something that shook the entire martial world. He poisoned the only heir of King Zhennan and his hundred bodyguards to death before escaping.”
"You, you mean, after he poisoned the son of King Zhennan to death, he successfully escaped?”Li Hao said in disbelief. One had to know that the King of Zhennan had absolute authority in the south. He could even be said to be the " God " of the south. He had outstanding military achievements in his life. He had suppressed the chaos of the imperial court with an iron fist. His martial arts were superb, and his swordsmanship was at the peak of the martial world. He could even be compared to the Four Great Sword Saints. If an ordinary person heard the words " King of Zhennan," they would have been scared out of their wits.
Unfortunately, this King Zhennan was famous for his lifetime, but he had a good-for-nothing son. He was idle, ignorant, and bullied the weak and feared the strong, ruining the wisdom of King Zhennan. The behavior of this father and son was simply the difference between heaven and earth. Although King Zhennan hated his son for not being able to live up to his expectations, he was extremely protective of his son. Usually, if this son was injured, then the hundred followers who followed him would be beheaded.
Under the influence of King Zhennan, this alchemist saint was actually able to poison his son to death and escape safely. It was simply a fantasy. Compared to the entire King Zhennan's residence, the alchemist saint was just a firefly's light.
Xiao Hui smiled and slowly pouted her lips." Although this King Zhennan is powerful and is the pillar of the south, he may not be able to control the sky with one hand. It's not like there are no forces that can compete with him."”
"You mean that there's a powerful faction that's specially protecting the Alchemist Saint?”This left Li Hao puzzled. Who would offend King Zhennan for a mere alchemist saint? Even a fool knew the pros and cons of this. Moreover, how could there be a fool among these few powerful factions? Unless he was already powerful enough to not fear King Zhennan, such as the current emperor? Impossible. Even the emperor did not dare to offend King Zhennan easily. One had to know that this was the revenge of killing his son. It was not a trivial matter. Who would not be afraid of King Zhennan?
"Could it be?" When Li Hao thought of this, he spoke in a daze.
"That's right, this is it." Xiao Hui said lightly.
Li Hao smiled, but his eyes were filled with shock and curiosity. Then, he sighed softly and slowly said,"Bai Rushuang is already this strong?”
"That's right, they even fought back then.”
Other than the martial arts legend and Yutai Tower, who else could be so fearless of King Zhennan?
Li Hao was extremely curious about the fight between the two. Both of them were at the peak of Jianghu. Theoretically speaking, King Zhennan was more experienced and powerful. His hands were stained with the blood of countless people. Compared to him, Bai Rushuang was talented, but she had just become one of the Four Great Sword Saints not long ago.
"Who won?" Li Hao asked curiously. After a while, he laughed at himself, as if he felt that he had asked a stupid question.
Since Jade Terrace Tower could suppress King Zhennan, other than its influence, it must also include its own strength. To be able to make such an unruly person like King Zhennan lower his head and let go, it could only mean...
Bai Rushuang had not only won, but she had also won easily.
From this, it could be seen how powerful Bai Rushuang was now. In the entire Jianghu, there were probably no more than a handful of people who could fight against him. Even Li Hao, who thought highly of himself, could only admire him when he mentioned him.
"Although this Alchemist Saint has the protection of the Jade Terrace Tower, it's not like King Zhennan won't secretly kill us. Although four years have passed, his identity is still sensitive. When he sees people like us who make a living, it's inevitable that he will suddenly attack.”Li Hao suddenly said in a deep voice.
