The person sitting upright turned out to be Lei Tianxiao from Qianjiexing.
He opened his eyes suddenly and saw Li Qiang standing in front of him with a smile, the folding fan in his hand tapping his palm. Since being defeated by Li Qiang, Lei Tianxiao has been racking his brains to practice using crooked methods and is now at the early stage of distraction.
Seeing Li Qiang appear, Lei Tianxiao couldn't help but feel surprised and happy. He thought his chance for revenge had arrived. He said lightly: Yes, it's rare to see you again. Please sit down, haha. Please sit down, but his face showed excitement and expectation.
.The two cultivators behind him stood calmly.
Li Qiang sat magnanimously opposite Lei Tianxiao and said with a smile: Old Lei, what are those people doing in such a big scene downstairs? Could it be that they cheated a bunch of hard workers again? He was once sent to Situ Yong from Qianjie Star.
The experience of working hard in the black prison of Tambang Star left a deep impression on him.
Nashan and Zhao Zhi's expressions turned cold. Nashan asked: Who are they?
Jiang Weiguang, the prefect of Hanlin City, wiped his sweat and said: Sir, are they? He suddenly realized that what these people said before must be lies, because the prince from the capital seemed to know these people very well.
Nashan asked impatiently: What did you say? Don't hesitate. Did you do something wrong?
Li Qiang knocked on the table with a folding fan and said: Nashan, don't ask him, he won't know. With Lao Lei's methods, the prefect Jiang is just a decoration. Lao Lei, I'm not wrong, right?
Lei Tianxiao grinned. His custom was that whenever he smiled, he meant he wanted to kill someone.
Lei Tianxiao said slowly: Originally, I just wanted to take the person away quietly and come back later. Now that you have seen through it, I will silence you. Oh, I wonder why you always show up at inappropriate times.
Nashan grinned and said to Zhao Zhi: Good guy, he is very powerful. How dare you speak to the boss like this? I really admire him.
Li Qiang also laughed: Lao Lei, the first time I saw you was also in the old Song Dynasty. I was chased by you miserably. When I saw you in the Gobi Desert, you ran away very quickly. As for this time, you are very
Unfortunately, not only did he not have the chance to take action, but he also couldn't even escape.
Lei Tianxiao laughed loudly: Haha, do you think I'm that bad? I want you to see my strength. He was so angry that a sword light suddenly flew out.
Li Qiang raised the folding fan in his hand and struck Lei Tianxiao's flying sword lightly as if swatting a fly.
Li Qiang said calmly: If you still haven't grown into this thing, don't use it to embarrass yourself and find something else.
The flying sword fell on the table, and the whole wine table collapsed silently. The flying sword danced on the ground like a living fish.
Lei Tianxiao was so frightened that he broke out in cold sweat and couldn't help but shed a cold sweat. The flying sword was hit by Li Qiang's folding fan and he couldn't drive it. He looked at the flying sword on the ground helplessly, but he couldn't take back this kind of strength. He couldn't say anything.
I have never seen it or even heard of it.
Li Qiang waved the folding fan leisurely and said with a smile: Lao Lei, you are already going crazy. Well, it is the result of your forced cultivation. Lao Lei, what are you planning to do by deceiving these people?
Lei Tianxiao couldn't sit still anymore. He stood up suddenly and saw Li Qiang folding his fan and saying, "Why are you in such a hurry?" Sitting down, Lei Tianxiao felt a huge force pressing down on him. His legs went limp and he sat back on the chair, but the seat was unexpected.
Unable to bear the huge force, Lei Tianxiao shattered with a crack and sat on the ground. His face turned red in embarrassment and his whole body trembled with anger.
Li Qiang smiled and said: Oh, Lao Lei, you are too humble, why are you sitting on the ground? You haven't answered me yet.
The two cultivators behind Lei Tianxiao were already restrained. They took a step back without saying a word. They looked at each other and suddenly flew up to try to escape. Li Qiang had been on guard against them for a long time. He said calmly:
I haven’t finished talking about running yet.
A faint golden light flashed past the two of them, as if they had hit a copper wall and fell down with a thud.
Nashan laughed proudly: You should be more honest. Even our boss, the Immortal, dares to fight you. You are far behind.
Lei Tianxiao and the other three with earthy faces and pale complexions said that they didn't care but that Li Qiang showed too much strength.
Lei Tianxiao sadly found that the gap between him and Li Qiang was so huge that he couldn't struggle at all. He still had a sinister magic weapon in his hand, but he didn't dare to use it to fight now. He kept rolling his eyes for a long time before saying
: These people are going to be sent to Qianjie Star. We are short of mortals there.
Li Qiang asked: Is this the first batch of people who are all from the Song Dynasty? He was very surprised that the Song Dynasty was not aware of such a big event and these officials were too incompetent.
Lei Tianxiao lowered his head and looked at the messy fragments of the wine table in front of him. His flying sword was inserted quietly on the ground, shining with a faint green brilliance. He whispered: Only with this group of people, we have just started this. He suddenly felt that the surroundings were restricted.
He couldn't even move his fingers, and the fear in his heart surged like a tide.
After Li Qiang restrained the three of them, he said: Magistrate Jiang turned around and saw that Jiang Weiguang had collapsed on the ground. When he heard Li Qiang calling him, he scrambled to the ground and stammered: Your Majesty, I'm here. His fat face
There were beads of sweat on his body and the fat all over his body was trembling. He was frightened.
There were some accompanying guests, including masters and government servants, kneeling on the ground. They all looked uneasy and everyone was trembling. Li Qiang shook his head slightly and asked: How many times did Jiang Zhifu Lei Tianxiao come and how many people did he take away?
Jiang Weiguang's plump body twisted uncomfortably and said: He has been here four times. Except for the first time, he didn't take anyone with him. Later, he took away seventy or eighty people each time. He said that they were all young and middle-aged people for building any palace. He gave a lot.
He quietly glanced at Li Qiang to settle down. When he saw Li Qiang's eyes were like knives, he was even more panicked and his heart almost jumped out of his chest.
Li Qiang said: "Affordable." Magistrate Jiang asked your people to invite the two people below to come up. Nashan and Zhao Zhi, you guys should also follow. Those two cultivators are not high in cultivation and call in a few more laborers.
Nashan said enthusiastically: Fatty, hurry up. Jiang Weiguang shook his hands and said: Master Zhou, you go, you go.
A guy who was almost as fat as Magistrate Jiang took Nashan and Zhao Zhi downstairs. If Nashan hadn't grabbed him by the collar, Master Zhou would have rolled downstairs and his legs were weak.
After a while, a loud banging sound was heard coming up from downstairs.
Li Qiang asked nonchalantly: How much settlement allowance did they give? Magistrate Chiang knew that he could not hide it from Li Qiang. He said tremblingly: It was about 500 taels of silver per person. He couldn't explain it anymore because he had deducted most of it.
There was a noise on the stairs, and Nashan pushed the two cultivators who were sitting downstairs up. Zhao Zhi and Master Zhou followed with a few workers. Nashan said proudly: How dare these two boys attack me?
Hehe, it's a pity that it was a little worse.
Li Qiang discovered that Nashan had used a very strange magic weapon to completely seal the power of the two cultivators. How did he know that Nashan often went to Fu Shan when he was in the Ancient Sword Academy? Although this guy is a rough guy, he is very good at flattering.
Later, he became very familiar with Mr. Fu. Many people in the old man's magic weapon were generous and good-hearted, and he actually got a lot of good magic weapons. This forbidden invisible curse Cankun set was obtained from Fu Shan.
Li Qiang's current mentality is very different from before. He actually doesn't care much about what Lei Tianxiao did. It's just that he always remembers Hou Peijing's words to help the old Song Dynasty, so he will reach out to take care of this matter. Li Qiang has not yet
Realizing his current indifference, if he had encountered such a thing when he first entered Tianting Star, his thoughts would have been completely different.
Li Qiang asked the workers: How much settlement allowance did you receive in total?
The workers knelt down and replied: There are one hundred taels of silver.
With a thud, Magistrate Jiang fell to the ground and fainted from fright.
Li Qiang signaled Zhao Zhi to go for treatment and asked: Do you know what you are asked to do?
The elder said that we would be allowed to work as long-term workers, with the opportunity to visit our family once a year and a good income. Several workers said with satisfaction that this was a good opportunity for them.
Li Qiang nodded and waved for them to leave.
After a moment of silence, Li Qiang looked at Jiang Weiguang who woke up and said: Magistrate Chiang has paid their settlement allowance and sent them home immediately. Do you understand? Magistrate Chiang nodded repeatedly and still knelt down blankly. Li Qiang said: Go quickly.
Why are you standing there stunned on the ground? Magistrate Chiang stumbles and leads his men downstairs as if he were granted amnesty.
Lei Tianxiao suddenly felt a lightness on his body. He could finally move, but he did not dare to move. He gritted his teeth and said: "What do you want?" He was not only angry, but also sad. Cold sweat flowed down his forehead. He felt that he had already
Completely lost determination to resist.
Li Qiang said: Honestly, what will happen to these people from the Song Dynasty after they are teleported to Qianjie Star?
Nashan murmured in his heart that he felt that the boss seemed different from before. He couldn't tell what was different. He couldn't help but whispered: Just get rid of him. Why are you talking to him so much?
Lei Tianxiao said: We just want to create another Fate Star, but we lack the foundation of mortals, so the Purple Immortal King ordered us to find people on various planets and move them to Qianjie Star. If you don't believe it, you can go to Qianjie Star and have a look.
This was beyond Li Qiang's expectation. He stared at Lei Tianxiao and his voice suddenly filled with heart-shaking fluctuations. He used a trick to confuse his mind: Is the Purple Immortal King the successor of Old Man Baihuang? Then what is Situ Yong's status now?
Lei Tianxiao's eyes suddenly became distracted and he said subconsciously: When Old Man Baihuang left, he handed over the leadership of Qianjie Star to King Zixian. Later, Situ Yong refused to accept and brought a group of subordinates to Tianhe. Now Qianjie Star has been divided.
For the two groups of cultivators, each is attached to
Li Qiang asked: Who are you attached to?
Lei Tianxiao answered mechanically: The Purple Immortal King is easier to talk to than Situ Yong.
There was a louder noise downstairs. Master Zhou ran upstairs in a panic, knelt in front of Li Qiang and said: The people downstairs don't want to go home, so follow them.
Li Qiang ignored him and continued to ask Lei Tianxiao: How many people would these workers die in the past? Lei Tianxiao said dully: It's different this time. We don't intend to hurt anyone. They are mortals kept in captivity by Qianjie Star, so we won't do anything to them.
.
Keeping mortals in captivity is the most ridiculous thing Li Qiang has ever heard of. He pondered for a moment and thought to himself: This is not a bad thing. It's just that the cultivators' methods allow mortals to live and reproduce on other planets. The more mortals there are, the stronger the foundation of the cultivation world is.
. He hesitated and asked: Are they all going voluntarily?
Lei Tianxiao said: We don't care whether they want it or not, as long as they pay the settlement fee, they have to go.
Li Qiang couldn't help but smile bitterly. He wanted to kill Lei Tianxiao now, but he remembered Qingdi's words to be restrained. After enduring it again, he raised his hand and blocked Lei Tianxiao's power.
Lei Tianxiao suddenly woke up and found that his skills were imprisoned. He screamed in horror: You, please kill me. His enemy's many skills were imprisoned, and if his enemies knew about it, he would be dead.
Li Qiang flicked his finger and a golden light hit his open mouth. He couldn't say a word and just screamed non-stop.
Li Qiang sneered and said, "Wouldn't killing you make my hands dirty? You don't need to call me crazy, I'm too lazy to care about your messy things. Give me a message to tell the Purple Immortal King that she has moved to mortals. I don't care, but don't hurt anyone, otherwise I will go to the underground."
Do you understand that Jiexing wants to settle a score with her? Get out of here?
The four cultivators nodded and looked frightened. The four of them supported Lei Tianxiao and hurried downstairs, leading the mortals away in a panic.
After a while, a group of people from the prefect Jiang timidly walked upstairs and knelt on the ground waiting for Li Qiang's arrival.
In fact, Li Qiang had escaped a disaster just now. If he couldn't help but kill Lei Tianxiao, he would no longer be able to control his murderous heart. He has always been very cautious, but Qing Emperor reminded him to restrain it.
If the state of inner impulse and murderous heart is broken by killing, one will completely lose oneself and be immersed in the pleasure of killing and be unable to extricate oneself. Therefore, this state is also a difficulty in cultivating the Tianjian Chapter.
Li Qiang looked at these officials from the old Song Dynasty kneeling on the ground and suddenly felt that the secular world was boring. He waved his hands indifferently and said: You go back.
Magistrate Chiang plucked up the courage and asked: "Excuse me, sir, what is the name of this official?" Li Qiang shook his head and said: "You'd better go back if you don't know."
Jiang Zhifu's fat face was twisted and beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. He looked around like a helpless child for help. Li Qiang was angry and funny. He raised his hand and threw out a jade plaque and said: Since you
Be sure to know and see for yourself.
Holding the jade plaque in his hand, Magistrate Jiang glanced at him and with a bang, he fell to the ground again and passed out.
Li Qiang stretched out his hand to catch the jade token and flew it back. He said calmly: If you have no future, send Magistrate Chiang back to the government office to make him look embarrassed.
The group of government officials and masters hurriedly carried Magistrate Jiang away. Although they didn't know who Li Qiang was, they guessed that Li Qiang must be a big shot when they saw Magistrate Chiang's reaction.
The restaurant that was very busy just now is now deserted. Only a dozen waiters are left standing there like puppets. The owner of the restaurant has been busy for a long time without any tears and has not seen a penny of money. Everyone in the restaurant has left.
. Seeing Li Qiang coming downstairs to the restaurant, the shopkeeper couldn’t help shouting: Mr.
Nashan shouted: What?
The restaurant owner knelt down with a plop and said pitifully: Master, please spare my life.
Li Qiang asked: "What are you doing? We won't harm you."
Zhao Zhi was the first to understand. He threw down a piece of gold and said, "Don't kneel down, let's pay the bill." After saying that, he couldn't help but laugh: "Boss, you see the meal was not paid, but we paid the bill. If you do this again, I won't be able to do it again."
I'm going to run out of money, haha.
Only then did Li Qiang understand what was going on. He became even more fed up and said, "Let's go." A circle of golden light flashed past, and he teleported away with the two of them.
The restaurant owner was so happy with the gold that he didn't know what to do. Suddenly he saw a flash of golden light and three people disappeared. He was so frightened that he fell to the ground with a thud and fainted.
Li Qiang took Nashan and Zhao Zhi and moved directly to the Holy King's Mansion. As soon as the golden light of protection dissipated, the guards on night watch appeared. They heard a loud shout: "Who is it?" followed by a rapid sound of gongs and countless lights all around.
lantern torch.
Nashan was full of praise: These boys are quite alert. Yes, the guards of the Boss Saint King’s Palace should reward them. Haha.
A dark crowd gathered around him, but no one could get closer than ten steps to Li Qiang. The guards were shocked and his voice softened: "Who are you?"
Li Qiang smiled and said: I'm here to find someone.
The guard was stunned and joked that he came to the Holy King's Mansion in the middle of the night to look for someone. He had never heard of such a thing. He then asked: Who are you looking for? Who are you?
Li Qiang raised his hand and shot out a jade identity token.
The guard suddenly felt that there was something in his hand. He opened his palm and trembled when he saw it. He only heard Li Qiang say: Now you know who I am, right?
With a plop, the guard knelt down and said loudly: The foreman, the third-class guard Zhang Lu, welcomes the prince back to the house. The guards who gathered around him all knelt down when they heard it.
Recently, people often kneel in front of Li Qiang and he gradually got used to it. He said: Everyone get up and talk. Is the Holy King back?
Zhang Lu said: The Holy King has gone to do something, and is not in the palace now.
Li Qiang asked: What should I do?
Zhang Lu said: "I don't know very well. I just heard that the Holy King needed to find some kind of elixir and had been away for a long time."
Li Qiang understood and nodded: Did the Holy King tell where to look?
Zhang Lu rubbed his hands uneasily and said with a bit of embarrassment: The Holy King didn't tell us.
Nashan touched his bald head: Mr. Hou, do you still need to find some magic elixir? Isn’t he already a Mahayana man? Why are you still looking for that thing? It’s hard for the boss to find him now. As soon as he finished speaking, all the guards glared at him.
Xiangxiang. It is really disrespectful to know that the Holy King is like a god in their minds.
Li Qiang pondered for a while and said: The Holy King must have gone to a very far place.
Zhao Zhi asked: Are we going to find him?
Nashan clapped his hands and applauded: Boss, that’s great. I don’t have much room to run around, so I just went out for a walk. Haha, it’s good to gain some experience. Maybe I can meet Mr. Hou.
A group of guards were dumbfounded and wondered why this guy was so rude to the prince. But because Li Qiang was there, they didn't dare to scold Nashan, but they felt very awkward in their hearts.
One of the guards said: The chief manager of the palace is here.
The chief steward was an old man in his sixties, a eunuch in fifth-grade clothing. He hurried over and said repeatedly: Your Majesty, your servant has a message from the Holy King.
Li Qiang ducked in front of him: What message?
The chief steward said: Fei You, the chief steward of the slave palace, paid homage to the prince. He bowed in a formal manner.
Li Qiang smiled bitterly in his heart and said impatiently: Okay, okay, there are so many gifts, what message can you say quickly?
The chief steward Fei You said in a sharp voice: The Holy Prince asked the servant to tell the prince not to look for him deliberately. If there is still fate, we will see each other again.
Li Qiang couldn't help but sigh: After all, my brother has cultivated to Mahayana. Well, he has decided not to look for him specifically anymore.
Li Qiang said to everyone: "You all should leave. Mr. Fei will arrange a place for me. I will leave tomorrow so as not to disturb the emperor. He didn't want to spend more time in the old Song Dynasty. Since he couldn't find Hou Peijing, he planned to leave."
The three of them meditated in the room all night. The next morning, Li Qiang took Nashan and Zhao Zhi and quietly left the Holy King's Mansion.
Standing on the street, Nashan touched his bald head and said: Boss, go back now. He felt that it was a pity to go back to Tianting Star before he had enough fun.
Li Qiang walked slowly along the street. The early winter sun was warm on him. People were coming and going on the street and it was quite lively. However, Li Qiang felt that all this seemed far away from him, and he felt a sense of disgust in his heart. He patted his head vigorously.
He was wondering what was going on. He always liked being crowded and lively, and his current state of mind felt a bit strange even to himself.
In fact, this is the state of Wu Qingtian's murderous heart that affects his insensitivity to everything. It is just the first step. Once Li Qiang loses feeling for everything around him, it will be difficult for him to overcome this as long as he kills more than one mortal life.
It is only a matter of time that the state of murderous heart will explode as one's skill further increases.
This was the first time that Nashan and Zhao Zhi saw Li Qiang being so taciturn. Nashan grabbed Zhao Zhi and whispered, "Boss, what's going on? I always feel something's not right, eh, is he?"
Zhao Zhi asked in a low voice: What is it that Nashan touched his bald head? He couldn't find the right words and held it in for a long time before blurting out: It felt weird like losing his wife. Before he finished speaking, he was slapped on the head by Li Qiang.
What nonsense is Nashan talking about?
Nashan was so frightened that he shrank his neck and hid behind Zhao Zhi and said with a smile: It's been a long time since I saw the boss's temper. Haha, it feels quite friendly.
Zhao Zhi couldn't help laughing and said: You are a bitch again and you are talking nonsense.
Although Li Qiang gave Nashan a slap, he was awakened by his words. He suddenly realized that this was the consequence of practicing to the state of killing. He couldn't help but be grateful to Nashan. If he hadn't been careful, there would have been a big problem during this training.
The process was going so fast that he couldn't control himself.
Li Qiang took a long breath and said with a smile: Let's relax while shopping.
While he was talking, there was a noise in front of him and pedestrians gathered around him quickly. Nashan said, "Boss, I'll go take a look." He also ran over with the crowd. Li Qiang laughed and said, "Nashan still likes to watch the fun so much."
Suddenly, I heard a roar from Nashan: Come on, boss, and the crowd was shaken away.
Li Qiang ducked to Nashan's side and was shocked when he saw the person lying on the ground.
