After reading the message, Li Zizai quickly put away the emerald flying sword.
After pondering for a moment, he began to make corresponding preparations for his character's next move.
Just as he was ready to leave, a figure suddenly appeared beside him.
"Hey, big brother, where are you going?”
The one who spoke was a youth who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old.
He had a head of short, messy blue hair and wore a unique golden collar. He was wearing a casual short-sleeved shirt and shorts, and a red belt around his waist. He also wore two golden bracelets on his wrists.
Other than his unique appearance, the most attractive thing about the young man was his pair of eyes that were full of spirit and laughter.
The person who came was the Second Young Master of the Li Family of the Peach Garden, Li Zizai's younger brother, Li Quzhuo.
Unlike his older brother, Li Zizai, who had a mature and refined personality, Li Quzhuo had been a standard rebellious teenager since he was young. Not only was his clothing style unconventional, but even his words and actions were full of personality.
Just like now, it was fine to just stand properly, but he insisted on hanging upside down on the beam and swinging around to talk.
Li Zizai was obviously used to his brother's funny personality. He smiled lightly and didn't care.
"I have a new mission. I need to make a trip to the southwest.”
New mission?
Li Quzhuo's eyes lit up when he heard that.
"What new mission? Was it fun? Was there a fight? Who was his opponent? Why don't you bring me along?"
He spoke quickly and asked a lot of questions at once.
Li Zizai shook his head helplessly.
"This is a mission personally assigned by Boss. It's not something fun. The main thing is to protect. At present, it seems that there's no need to do anything. However, if you come and cause trouble, the nature of the matter might be different.
Therefore, I'll go alone this time. You'd better stay at home and cultivate.”
Li Zizai refused his brother's request to pass.
"Ah, you won't let me go again. How boring.”
Li Quzhuo curled his lips and looked resentful.
Li Zizai shook his head with a helpless smile at his reaction. He patted his brother's shoulder and walked out of the door.
However, after Li Zizai had left for a while, his expression suddenly changed, revealing a sly smile.
"Hehe, if you don't want to take me, I'll go myself.”
He rubbed his chin and pondered for a while.
"In the southwest, Sister Huaizhu personally gave the order. Moreover, it's a protection mission. Heh, who else can receive such treatment under such circumstances? It must be that pretty boy swordsmith that I mentioned last time.”
At this point, Li Quzhuo could not help but show some dissatisfaction.
"Tsk, isn't he just a pretty boy who knows how to forge a sword? Uh…at most, he's just a pretty boy who's pretty good with swords. Is he worth Sister Huaizhu's attention? He actually wanted his big brother to protect him personally?
She even said that she must not be his enemy in the future and that his existence was more important than all of us. There were so many brothers and sisters in the organization, but she had never treated anyone so well. Instead, she valued an outsider so much. It was simply baffling.”
The more Li Quzhuo thought about it, the more unconvinced he became. Soon, he had an idea.
"Heh, since that's the case, I want to see how much this Ye Qing is worth.”
Having made his decision, Li Quzhuo immediately put it into action.
He took out his iconic mask and put it on. He carried his precious treasure bag and soared into the sky as soon as he got on the Wind and Fire Wheels. Soon, he disappeared into the clouds.
Many human forces had different reactions to Ye Qing's actions in Jinhua City.
As for Ye Qing and his group, they had already arrived at the second stop on their journey.
Leizhou City.
Unlike Jinhua City, which was a medium-sized city, Leizhou City was extremely large. Not only was it the largest city in the southwest region, but it could also rank in the top ten among all human cities.
The most important reason was that this city was home to a top-tier Dao Alliance clan.
The number one expert of the Dao Alliance, the Wen Clan.
The Wen family was on par with the Zhang, Li, and Yang families, and they also had a lot of power.
However, even so, Ye Qing, who had made up his mind to sharpen his Sword Heart, still chose to enter the city openly.
Then, without using any means to conceal his identity, Ye Qing was recognized by the Taoist guarding the city at a glance when he entered the city.
There was nothing he could do about it. Right outside the city gates of Leizhou City, there was a wanted portrait of Ye Qing hanging there. Shi Tang's portrait was also hanging there.
Because Chi Huo and Yaya didn't show up much in Jinhua City, there was no warrant for their arrest.
However, although they were recognized at the first moment, they were surprised that the cultivators guarding Leizhou City were not attacked immediately.
On the contrary, the other party was very polite. Instead, he respectfully expressed to Ye Qing and the others that the young master of the Wen family wanted to invite them for a chat.
Ye Qing was quite surprised by this, but he naturally agreed.
This was because he had some prior understanding of the situation. The Wen Clan of the Dao Alliance had always been at odds with the Xiao Clan. Hence, he boldly guessed that the Wen Clan might not necessarily agree with the Xiao Clan.
In addition, all the materials for the Qing Suo Sword were already prepared and could be synthesized at any time.
Even if he was besieged and couldn't win, he could still use the phenomenon caused by the Qing Suo Sword to temporarily break the lightning barrier that the Wen family was proud of and break out.
If it really didn't work out, the One Night Sword could still be used as his final trump card.
Therefore, Ye Qing wasn't worried at all about this trip to Leizhou City.
Then, in this relaxed state of mind, Ye Qing could even tell a few cold jokes to Yaya along the way, causing the two people from the Crimson Huo Stone Hall to be stunned and at the same time, making the fox demon girl giggle.
Soon, the four of them were brought to the City Lord's Mansion.
What Ye Qing did not expect was that this so-called young master of the Wen family would ask him directly the first time he saw him.
"The Xiao family has already issued an arrest warrant, yet you still dare to swagger here. I'm very curious. Ye Qing, are you really not afraid of death?”
