"You guys wait outside the door. I'll go and report.”
When Li Jingye and the rest followed the white-robed swordsman Zhao Chong to the private room on the fourth floor, they were ordered to wait outside.
As Zhao Chong knocked on the door and entered the private room, Li Jingye heard a soft moan coming from inside the room.
The voice gave people a feeling of pain and joy. Moreover, the voices sounded like there were many people.
"Creak!"
As the door was closed, all sounds disappeared.
Li Jingye heaved a sigh of relief when he did not hear his little sister's voice.
At this moment, the door creaked open. Zhao Chong waved at Li Jingye and the others and said,"Come in!"
After receiving permission, the shopkeeper of the porridge shop stepped into the room first, followed by Li Jingye, Wang Xiaopang, and three waiters carrying heavy bamboo baskets.
As soon as he stepped into the room, Li Jingye smelled a strong fragrance. It should be the fragrance of the woman's powder or rouge.
There were other odors mixed in the fragrance. What made Li Jingye most vigilant was that he seemed to have smelled a faint smell of blood.
He could no longer hear the soft grunts he had heard outside the door.
This made him a little suspicious, wondering if he had heard wrongly.
Before he could think further, he was brought to a private room in the back room.
There were a few men in the private room. They were sitting around a long table, eating and drinking.
A familiar figure among the men made Li Jingye's eyes turn cold.
He quietly lowered his head and carefully took out the meat porridge from the bamboo basket and placed it on the table.
Before he could look around carefully, something unexpected happened.
"Kill them!"
The owner of the porridge shop shouted and suddenly led three waiters to attack Zhao Chong and the others in the private room.
"F * ck! Old Qi is actually a fake!"
At this moment, Wang Xiaopang was so frightened that he let out a curse. He pulled Li Jingye, who had yet to come to his senses, and hid outside the private room.
"Bang bang bang"
"Kill!"
"Clang! Clang!"
The sound of a battle could be heard from the private room. After the porridge shop owner took off his human skin mask, he revealed a face full of scars.
He roared and his Qi surged, clashing with the white-robed swordsman Lin Chong.
The three congee shop assistants were not weak either. At this moment, they were fighting with the bun shop owner and his guards.
Li Jingye, who was hiding outside the door and watching the commotion, was anxiously searching for his little sister.
Soon, he noticed that there seemed to be a secret door at the side of the private room.
The secret door wasn't too hidden, but if one didn't look carefully, they might really miss it.
"Let's go! Stop watching the show!"
At this moment, Wang Xiaopang, who was beside Li Jingye, tugged at his sleeve and reminded him in a low voice.
"They are not your people?"
"Did you arrange the assassination?"
Li Jingye did not leave immediately. Instead, he asked Wang Xiaopang, who was beside him, with some suspicion.
"Arrange my ass! Old Qi had been disguised and swapped, so he was probably in trouble now.”
"I originally wanted to secretly investigate whether there were immortals here and whether they came from a cult.”
"Now that things have changed, it's more important for us to escape and save our lives.”
Wang Xiaopang cursed. His explanation surprised Li Jingye.
Seeing that Wang Xiaopang did not seem to be lying, he could not help but whisper,"I'm going to find someone. You go first."
As soon as he finished speaking, he took advantage of the time when everyone was fighting and not paying attention to each other to rush towards the hidden door in the distance.
Li Jingye pushed the door with all his might, but it did not budge at all.
"Brute force is useless. You have to use your brain.”
At this moment, Wang Xiaopang rushed over. After fumbling around the secret door a few times, he actually found a protruding stone switch.
He quickly pressed the switch, and the secret door slowly opened without a sound.
"You're good!"
Li Jingye was overjoyed. After praising Wang Xiaopang, he quickly led him into the door.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, there was a loud bang.
Li Jingye and Wang Xiaopang screamed in pain as they were sent flying like cannonballs.
The two of them smashed into the table and fell under it.
The hidden door in the distance shattered with a bang, and a black-robed man walked out amidst the dust.
The black-robed man's cold eyes swept across the entire scene as he sneered,"Interesting! Interesting!"
"They actually barged in. A few ignorant little bugs.”
A mocking voice sounded. Li Jingye saw the black-robed man turn into a shadow and disappear from where he was.
Then, he heard a series of explosions and screams.
After a few muffled sounds, a few more corpses appeared on the ground.
The three servants of the porridge shop all died on the spot, while the owner of the porridge shop was lifted up by the black-robed man like an eagle grabbing a chick, struggling in the air.
"Ant-like thing! How dare you show off in front of me!"
The black-robed man chuckled and casually threw the porridge shop owner out.
The owner of the congee shop was an expert who was not weaker than the swordsman in white. He nimbly flipped in the air and landed on the ground. Not only did he not escape, but he also took out a hidden weapon box.
"Whoosh!" A series of air-piercing sounds rang out!
Li Jingye was shocked to see the overwhelming number of flying needles flying toward the black-robed man and the others.
"Get down!"
At this moment, the injured Wang Xiaopang cried out in alarm and quickly threw Li Jingye down.
However, the expected scene of ten thousand needles flying over did not happen, because the black-robed man in front of him had already released a golden light barrier.
The golden light barrier blocked the flying needles, causing them to hit the light barrier and bounce off.
"Dog-like thing! You haven't seen the Golden Light Barrier before, have you?"
"You have completely angered this Great Immortal. This Great Immortal will burn you to ashes.”
The black-robed man said viciously. As soon as he finished speaking, a fireball flew past and instantly collided with the porridge shop owner, who could not react in time.
"Ah!" A shrill scream rang out!
The porridge shop owner, who had the strength to suppress the white-robed swordsman, could not stop the flames that spread throughout his body in the blink of an eye.
In just a few breaths, the owner of the porridge shop was burned to ashes.
"Hurry up and leave!"
Li Jingye was dumbfounded. After he reacted, he quickly pulled Wang Xiaopang and turned to escape.
The strength of that immortal was too unfathomable. He had not found his little sister yet and did not want to lose his life in vain.
However, it was not so easy to escape from the eyes of an immortal cultivator.
The black-robed man formed a seal, and two rope-like black shadows instantly spread out from his body.
In just a few breaths, the black shadow had already wrapped itself around Li Jingye and Wang Xiaopang, who had already escaped.
"Let me go! Let me go!"
Wang Xiaopang struggled and cried out in alarm. Seeing that he could not break free from the black shadow, Li Jingye decided to stake everything on it and use the power of the blood-red threads in the stone tower to fight to the death.
