When Liu Jinghua pushed open the door and entered, Ye Gucheng had been waiting for him for a long time. Standing at the door, Liu Jinghua asked," May I know who you are?”
Ye Gucheng seemed to have seen through Liu Jinghua's little trick and said with a smile," If I want to kill you, even if you escape from the room, where can you go? The person I want to kill is so big that no one can stop me.”
Liu Jinghua had wanted to refute Ye Gucheng's arrogant words, but when he felt the unfathomable aura from Ye Gucheng, he decisively shut his mouth.
He knew that the person in front of him was not someone he, a first-rate expert, could provoke. However, he was not afraid at all. After all, he had the support of the Immortal-gathering Tower.
Seeing Liu Jinghua's actions, Ye Gucheng nodded in satisfaction," My name is Ye Gucheng. You should know my identity now!"”
As soon as he said that, Liu Jinghua stood up and looked at Ye Gucheng in surprise. He said in disbelief," You're the White Cloud City Lord, the Sword Saint Ye Gucheng who killed 178 sword masters in a row?”
Liu Jinghua was completely shocked. It was not that he was not able to control himself, but that Ye Gucheng's achievements were too terrifying. 178 swordsmen, each of them was a famous figure in the martial arts world.
But in the end, all of them died in the hands of Ye Gucheng. Because of this, Ye Gucheng became famous as a Sword Saint. It could be said that the title of Sword Saint was created with blood.
Such a terrifying figure had appeared in front of him just like that. He was truly at a loss. One had to know that White Cloud City Lord Ye Gucheng was as famous as Bloody Massacre Lord Ximen Chuixue!
Ye Gucheng was already used to Jinghua's shock. Everyone who had just met him had the same reaction as Jinghua. After seeing it many times, he got used to it.
Fortunately, Liu Jinghua was still quite competent. He forcefully suppressed the surprise in his heart and respectfully said," Just now, the City Lord asked me to do as Li Er instructed. He even said that if there's anything, the City Lord will take responsibility. I'm stupid, so I hope the City Lord can explain."”
" You don't need to know too much about the details. All you need to know is that what I'm asking you to do, even your Tower Master won't say anything. This token represents my identity. I'll give it to you. If anyone blames you, show this to ensure your safety."”
Ye Gucheng said as he threw out a golden token with the words 'Sword Saint' on it. Liu Jinghua immediately kept the token.
He had no intention of verifying the authenticity of the token at all. What a joke. How many people in the world dared to impersonate a Sword Saint and even hold a Sword Saint's token to swindle people? Did they really think that the Sword Saint's sword had not killed enough people?
Although he didn't know what relationship Ye Gucheng had with his OP, with Jinghua's intelligence, he knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for him.
Liu Jinghua said with an unusually respectful attitude,"Thank you for the token, City Lord. I wonder if you have any other instructions. I will do my best to live up to your trust."”
Seeing that Liu Jinghua was so understanding, Ye Gucheng was very satisfied," My identity cannot be exposed. However, Li Er must do his best to ensure his safety."”
"I guess that the government of Youzhou will send an army to attack Immortals Gathering Tower and take Li Er away. I don't care what method you use, as long as you can save Li Er's life, I will reward you handsomely.”
"Protecting the safety of the guests is the rule of the Immortals Gathering Tower. Even if the City Lord didn't say it, I would have done it. Please rest assured, City Lord. I will do my best to protect Li Er.”
Liu Jinghua said confidently. Although he didn't know Li Er's identity, he knew that Li Er must have an extraordinary identity from the actions of the Youzhou government and the White Cloud City Lord, Ye Gucheng.
Protecting such a person was also very beneficial to him. After all, a dragon would not live with a snake. If Ye Gucheng was concerned about him, how could he protect an ordinary person in secret? It didn't exist.
In Youzhou City, Di Renjie was shocked when he heard that Wu Sima of the Military Department of the Five Cities had led his troops to the Immortals 'Gathering Tower to capture the fugitive Li Er. No one else knew about the background of the Immortals' Gathering Tower.
As an important official of the imperial court, he knew very well that the backing of the Immortals 'Gathering Restaurant was the Emperor's favorite, Prince Xiang Wu Zaisi. Now, the Immortals' Gathering Restaurant had been opened all over the country.
He didn't believe that Wu Sima of the Five Cities 'Military Department didn't know how terrifying the Immortals' Gathering Tower was. Even if they didn't know, the officials above would have warned them.
However, Wu Sima of the Military Department of the Five Cities had openly led his troops to the Immortals 'Gathering Tower to capture a fugitive. For a small fugitive, he had become enemies with the Immortals' Gathering Tower. He believed that Wu Sima would not be so stupid. There must be something fishy about this.
Thinking of this, Di Renjie said," Yuanfang, go to the Five Cities Military Department and secretly monitor Sima Wuyi's movements. I believe that he won't let this go.
As for Jing Hui, come with me to the Immortals Gathering Tower. I want to see who this Li Er is and what secrets he has that made the Youzhou Provincial Governor Fang Qian and Sima Wuyi go to such great lengths."”
