"Little brother! It's already late outside. Why don't you stay here for the night and leave every day?”
"Don't worry! I won't charge you for the night. Just stay in peace!”
Outside the bun shop shrouded in darkness, a potbellied shopkeeper was trying to persuade Li Jingye and his sister to stay.
"Little brother! It's not safe outside in the dark and windy night. I'd better stay at the bun shop for the night!”
The shop assistant with a scar on his face also tried his best to persuade the Li siblings to stay.
"No, thanks! Thank you for your kind intentions, we still have urgent matters to attend to, so we won't disturb you."
"Please wait! We'll take our leave!"
Li Jingye politely declined the shopkeeper and the shop assistant's kindness, then pulled his sister Li Qiuwan and left in a hurry.
As the two of them quickly disappeared from the street, the shopkeeper and the scar-faced shop assistant only looked at each other and smiled. From the beginning to the end, they did not force Li Jingye and his sister to stay.
The two of them watched them calmly until they completely disappeared on the street.
After a long time, the shopkeeper asked the shop assistant beside him with a smile,"Have you arranged the things I instructed you to do?”
"Boss, don't worry. Everything has been arranged properly. You just have to wait and reap the benefits.”
"Hahaha! Good!"
"Then we'll just wait for them to walk into the trap."
"Definitely!"
"Hahaha!"
The shopkeeper and the shop assistant who were in cahoots with each other laughed loudly, then turned around and walked back to the bun shop.
In the basement of the bun shop, there were many dark dungeons.
There were many dried bones and a few fresh corpses hanging in the dungeon.
Li Jingye, who was far away from the bun shop, brought his little sister through a few empty alleys.
He had been secretly observing behind him. He only heaved a sigh of relief when he realized that no one was following him.
"Brother! That shopkeeper is quite nice. Why don't we stay in the shop for a night?”
Li Jingye, who had slowed down his pace, fell silent when he heard his little sister's puzzled question.
When he was cleaning the backyard, he could always smell the faint smell of blood.
He wasn't sure if it was human blood or beast blood.
However, this made him a little wary. The shopkeeper and the waiters of the bun shop were too enthusiastic, which made Li Jingye even more wary and uneasy.
The most important thing was that the black stone necklace on his neck had given off a slight vibration warning. This was the reason why he was determined to leave.
He was able to bring his little sister through the wilderness to Lin Mountain City not just because of luck.
The black stone necklace around his neck had a magical warning ability.
The necklace originally belonged to his younger sister, but she gave it to him as a gift when he was very young.
From then on, his sister and the black stone necklace had accompanied him, becoming the most difficult fetters for him to let go of.
"We've already troubled them enough. We can't trouble them anymore.”
Li Jingye returned to his senses and took out a topographic map.
The topographic map depicted a simple street terrain with a red dot marking a place.
The waiter had given it to him before they left, saying that he had helped them find their relatives.
The Second Grandpa they were looking for lived in Lin 'an City, in the remote corner marked on the topographic map.
"Brother! Let's go find Second Grandpa, okay?"
"I finally have a clue. I don't want to spend the night outside until dawn.”
The little sister pleaded, her hopeful eyes causing Li Jingye to fall silent.
He hesitated whether he should take the risk to go and take a look overnight, but when he saw his little sister's hopeful and passionate eyes, he thought of the instructions his grandfather had given him before he died.
In the end, he nodded and went to the address marked on the topographic map.
......
......
As the night deepened, two sneaky figures finally found a small courtyard in the wilderness after searching for a topographic map.
The door to the small courtyard was open, which made the two figures hesitate for a moment.
After discussing in a low voice, the two of them still sneaked into the small courtyard in the dark.
Just as the two of them gradually approached the small courtyard, the black stone necklace on one of their necks suddenly trembled slightly.
"Not good! Hurry up and leave!"
An anxious voice came from Li Jingye's mouth. He had wanted to retreat with his little sister after realizing that there was danger.
It was also at this moment that a dozen black shadows jumped out of the darkness and surrounded him.
However, he shouted a little too late because before he could finish his words, he and his little sister had already been pushed to the ground by a dozen black shadows.
"Little sister!"
Li Jingye, who was pushed down, was shocked to see his little sister being grabbed by five men and tied up by ropes. He couldn't help but roar angrily.
"Let her go! Let her go!"
Li Jingye struggled furiously, but he was unable to break free from the restraints. Instead, he was beaten up by the men who had grabbed him.
"Ah!"
In the chaotic scene, a scream suddenly sounded.
He saw a man lying in a pool of blood with a terrified expression. There was a dagger stabbed into his heart.
Li Jingye held the dagger in his hand. This was his first time killing someone, but he did not hesitate or show any mercy.
"Die!"
Li Jingye, who had just killed a man, instantly pulled out his dagger and pounced on another man who had yet to react.
"Bang!"
At this moment, there was a loud bang.
Li Jingye felt as if his head had been smashed by someone, and he flew backward like a broken sack.
With another loud bang, Li Jingye fell heavily to the ground, his bones cracking.
A warm current flowed down from Li Jingye's forehead, dyeing his clothes red.
His vision gradually blurred, as if he could fall into a long sleep at any time.
"Brother!"
Suddenly, a cry of surprise rang out, causing Li Jingye, who had gradually fallen into a coma, to suddenly wake up.
He used the candlelight to look for the source of the sound and found his sister, Li Qiuwan, tied up by several men.
The shopkeeper of the bun shop, whom he had met before, was holding a torch in one hand and a bloodstained wooden stick in the other.
Clearly, the reason why his head was split open was because of the ruthless hands of the bun shop owner.
"Brat, you are quite ruthless. If I didn't need to capture your sister to be the immortal master's cauldron, I really wouldn't bear to kill you.”
The shopkeeper's somewhat mocking voice sounded, and then he gestured to his subordinates,"Take him to the cellar and fill the blood pool with his fresh blood.”
"Yes, sir!"
The few subordinates quickly agreed, and the shopkeeper had already left with his subordinates.
"Wuwuwu"
"Little sister!"
Li Jingye looked at his little sister, whose mouth was gagged and carried away, and couldn't help but exclaim anxiously.
"Brat! You should still care about yourself!”
"Hahaha!"
A mocking voice rang out, and the struggling Li Jingye was held down by a few men who came forward.
Then, he was tied up and carried away to a house in the distance.
There was a secret passage in the room, and there was a spacious cellar under the secret passage.
There was a pool of blood in the cellar, and it was currently emitting a strong smell of blood.
Li Jingye had lost too much blood from the wound on his forehead and was on the verge of death.
The men threw Li Jingye, who was on the verge of death, to the side of the blood pool. After cutting his wrists and ankles, they ignored him and sat together to discuss.
Therefore, no one noticed that the inconspicuous stone bead on his neck was actually slowly absorbing his blood.
"Do you think the immortal master the shopkeeper mentioned can really fly?”
"I heard that the immortal master's strength is unfathomable. Even first-rate or second-rate top-notch martial arts experts are not a match for the immortal master's one move.”
"Really? That exaggerated?"
"Then why did the immortal master ask us to capture a virgin? Also, could this blood pool be used for cultivation?”
"Then isn't that an evil cultivator?"
"Shh!"
"Don't talk nonsense!"
Li Jingye heard every word of the men's discussion.
However, he could not do anything at the moment. He had lost too much blood and was gradually losing consciousness.
If it wasn't for the fact that he was unwilling to die like this and kept struggling, he would have probably fainted by now.
However, no matter how hard he struggled, he realized that his body was no longer listening to him.
At the last moment of his life, he regretfully swore that if there was a next life, he would definitely climb to the peak of this world and never feel this powerless again.
He wanted power, all the power that could protect his sister.
As Li Jingye lost his last bit of consciousness, the black stone hanging around his neck suddenly released a suction force.
The terrifying suction force only lasted for an instant before it swallowed all the blood in the blood pool.
Then, a strange energy surged into Li Jingye's body.
The wounds on his body were healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Then, he was lifted up by a mysterious force and floated in the air.
"He, he, he! Why is he floating?"
Several men sitting around and chatting seemed to have sensed something.
When they turned around and saw Li Jingye floating in the air, they all exclaimed in shock.
"Not good! He must have turned into a corpse. Run!"
Very soon, someone reacted and shouted in surprise as he tried to escape.
At this moment, Li Jingye, who was floating in the air, suddenly opened his blood-red eyes.
As he opened his eyes, an invisible suction force instantly enveloped the men who were trying to escape.
"Ah!"
Horrified screams sounded, and those men instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
Immediately after, all the blood mist gathered and surged into the black stone on Li Jingye's neck.
The black stone began to tremble violently, then shattered into a white light that shot into his forehead.
The Heaven Suppressing Stone Pagoda swallowed all the negative energy of the heavens for its own use, exorcising evil and receiving blessings. It gathered spiritual light to assist all things.
A loud voice rang in Li Jingye's mind, waking him up from his coma.
Li Jingye's eyes were filled with shock and disbelief as he looked at himself floating in the air.
"Little sister!"
Soon, Li Jingye thought of his little sister who had been taken away and cried out anxiously.
With a loud shout, a wave of power surged out of his body.
That strange power instantly shattered the ropes on his body, and then he turned into a bloody light and fled.
