Seeing that Zhu Wushi had agreed, Li Chengqian chuckled softly, "Since Lord Shenhou has agreed to this agreement, then I, Li, will fulfill my promise."
Are the Embroidered Uniform Guards here?
In response to Li Chengqian's call, a member of the Imperial Guard dressed in a flying fish robe stepped out from the crowd.
Ever since Wang Wu's incident, whenever government spies enter Ping An Inn, they wear corresponding clothes.
After all, this is the only way to prevent Mr. Li from getting angry.
Facing the men of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, Li Chengqian calmly said, "Go and deliver a message to Young Master Huang in the capital."
"It's said that Lord Shenhou has the heart of a hero. It would be a pity to nip such a hero in the bud."
"Please give Lord Shenhou some time, Young Master Huang."
Upon hearing this, the Jinyiwei's lips twitched uncontrollably.
What's wrong with this world? When did rebellion start to involve human sentiment?
After speaking, Li Chengqian pointed to the paper and pen on the counter.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuyan immediately fetched paper and pen and presented them to Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian picked up a pen and wrote a few words on a piece of paper, then handed the note to the Imperial Guards.
"This is what Lord Shenhou wants. It is for this thing that Lord Shenhou risked having his head chopped off by Li to come here."
"Please also give this note to Young Master Huang. He will understand what to do then."
The Imperial Guard respectfully accepted the note. Li Chengqian stood up and said, "I'm a little tired, so I'll take my leave first."
"The appointment with Xia Ke Island is about to take place, and I, Li, must keep my promise."
"When I come back, the Ping An Inn event will begin."
"I hope Lord Divine Marquis is prepared."
After speaking, Li Chengqian looked at Bai Yujing, who seemed hesitant to speak.
“Young Master Bai, the more than three hundred heads you brought are a bit too bloody.”
"You go and dig a hole yourself and bury them. You have to be sincere in this kind of thing. It's best to dig with your own hands."
"Furthermore, with so many people dead, the malevolent energy must be extremely strong. I think Young Master Bai's Longevity Sword is quite good."
"Leave them there to suppress the souls of the dead, preferably with fragments of the Longevity Sword."
Upon hearing this, Bai Yujing narrowed his eyes.
Li Chengqian was teaching himself a lesson, and at the same time, he was telling himself to leave the martial arts world.
Of course, one could choose to refuse, but the price would be that one would have to do everything in one's power, just like Zhu Wushi, to challenge Li Chengqian.
Because no one dares to let Mr. Li of Ping An Inn remember them for the rest of their lives.
Thinking of this, Bai Yujing cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li."
Li Chengqian nodded slightly in response, and then walked deeper into the inn.
As they passed by Duan Tianya, Duan Tianya asked a question softly.
"Mr. Li, is there really no way to save Haitang?"
Faced with this question, Li Chengqian stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Duan Tianya.
"Yes, and it has always been there."
"Whether they deserve to die or not, I, Li, can save them."
"But Li is the only one who cannot save those who seek death. You should know how Haitang made her choice."
"Most people are thinking about whether I can save Haitang, or whether I will try to save Haitang."
"But you never considered whether Haitang wanted me to save her."
“She never asked me for help, and even refused my help.”
"Do you get me?"
Upon hearing Li Chengqian's words, a bitter smile flashed across Duan Tianya's face.
"Yes!"
"Of the three of us, Haitang is the one who listens to our godfather the most."
"If she can't stop her adoptive father from rebelling, she will do everything she can to save him, because she won't watch him die."
As he spoke, Duan Tianya looked up at Li Chengqian.
"Under the whole world, only you, the Sword Immortal Li Chengqian, can reverse this situation."
"But Haitang didn't want you to break the rules, and she didn't want to put you in a difficult position, so she chose to die, right?"
After quietly watching Tianya for a while, Li Chengqian flew upstairs, carried away Haitang's body, and left behind a sentence.
"Have Cheng Shifei come find me."
Chapter 380 Li Chengqian: Zhu Wushi Wants to Be Your Stepfather, The Secret of the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill
A small courtyard in a bamboo grove.
Li Chengqian stood alone in front of Shangguan Haitang's grave, while everyone else waited quietly by his side.
A gentle breeze rustled through the bamboo forest, creating a sound like waves.
The aroma of wine wafted through the bamboo grove on the gentle breeze.
After a long silence, Li Chengqian turned around and said, "Cheng Shifei, how about we make a deal?"
Faced with Li Chengqian's words, Cheng Shifei, looking weak and aggrieved, said, "Mr. Li, whatever you say goes."
Cheng Shifei's expression clearly conveyed his dissatisfaction at being attacked by Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian ignored this and instead said to himself, "I have the mystery of your origins here."
"If you want to know, you can trade me your Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill."
Cheng Shifei was not surprised when he heard that Li Chengqian knew about his background.
After all, it's not surprising that Mr. Li knows everything.
However, this exchange made Cheng Shifei hesitate, as he suspected his parents were already dead.
Otherwise, I wouldn't have become an orphan.
Using the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill to find the whereabouts of two dead people seems a bit too much of a loss!
Seeing Cheng Shifei's hesitation, Li Chengqian said calmly, "I'll say it again, there's only one chance."
"Think it over carefully before you speak."
After thinking for a moment, Cheng Shifei nodded and agreed, "Deal, even though they abandoned me a long time ago."
"But it seems inappropriate not to offer them incense on the first and fifteenth of each month."
Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Li Chengqian's lips.
"Very good. Your mother will be very pleased to know that you have this intention."
"Cheng Shifei, your father is Gu Santong, the invincible rascal who passed on his martial arts skills to you. In other words, your mother is Su Xin, the love of Zhu Wushi's life."
Upon hearing this, not only was Cheng Shifei surprised, but even Gui Haiyidao, who was grieving, was shocked.
"Mr. Li, you're not joking, are you?"
"Although this sounds like a joke, it really isn't."
"Speaking of this matter, it involves the love-hate relationship between your parents and Zhu Wushi back then."
"Back then, Zhu Wushi wandered the martial arts world and met your father, Gu Santong, by chance. The two hit it off immediately and eventually joined forces to find the martial arts manual of the Strange Hero of Tianchi."
"However, the martial arts of the Strange Hero of Tianchi are divided into those practiced by virgins and those not practiced by virgins."
"Zhu Wushi was born into the royal family, so he naturally had no shortage of women, which is why he had no choice but to use the Absorption Technique."
"Later, the two of them became famous in the martial arts world because of the martial arts of the Strange Swordsman of Tianchi, especially your father Gu Santong."
"He constantly challenged various sects in the martial arts world, and because he would tease them after defeating them, he earned the title of 'Invincible Mischievous Child'."
"It was at this time that Zhu Wushi met your mother, Suxin, and fell hopelessly in love with her."
Upon hearing this, Cheng Shifei panicked and immediately asked, "Mr. Li, isn't the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill practiced by virgins?"
"I also know some things about what happened to my father back then."
"At that time, his Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill probably hadn't been fully mastered yet."
"Since I haven't mastered the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, where did I come from?"
Cheng Shifei was indeed a little panicked. If Gu Santong had always been a virgin, then it meant that his biological father was very likely Zhu Wushi.
That's utter nonsense!
"Hahaha!"
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian let out a soft laugh.
"Gu Santong told you that the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill can only be practiced by a virgin, and can only be used five times in a lifetime, and can only be maintained for one hour each time."
"Zhu Wushi said the same thing, and almost everyone said the same thing."
"But sometimes, the truth is not in the hands of the majority."
"Is everything they say necessarily true?"
"Don't forget who leaked the news about the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill."
“When Li introduced these two divine skills, you all came out to refute him.”
"It's just that Li deliberately changed the subject and didn't respond to you at the time (chbd). Now that you think about it, don't you think it's a bit strange?"
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately recalled the scene from that time.
At the time, Li Chengqian said that the Absorption Technique was prepared for the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, and that the powerful internal energy would allow the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill to be maintained for a long time.
At that time, everyone also wanted to use this aspect as a breakthrough point and ask Li Chengqian for guidance.
After all, Cheng Shifei cultivated the Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill, and no one understood its characteristics better than him.
