After finishing his meal and paying the bill, he left the restaurant as if nothing had happened.
Just as Li Yao left the restaurant, three people inside exchanged glances and followed him out.
When Li Yao reached a secluded spot, three people suddenly appeared and blocked his way.
A smile flashed across Li Yao's face as he quickly glanced at the three people in front of him.
All three men had headscarves wrapped around their heads and curved knives at their waists.
However, the three of them were dressed very differently.
Some were dressed as merchants, some as warriors, and some as laborers.
One of the warriors, his face grim, demanded, "Who are you, and why are you inquiring about the Blue Moon Sect?"
Li Yao smiled slightly and asked, "So you're from the Blue Moon Sect?"
Since the Blue Moon Sect has a large influence in the desert, there must be spies from the Blue Moon Sect hiding in this small town.
Although Li Yao knew the location of Blue Moon City, having someone to guide him would save him the trouble of searching for it.
After all, this is a desert, all around is yellow sand, and there are no road signs or landmarks, so it's hard to find your way.
Previously, Li Yao deliberately asked the waiters loudly about the Blue Moon Sect in the restaurant, just to alert them and make the Blue Moon Sect members come to him.
Sure enough, the three of them fell for the trick.
Upon hearing Li Yao reveal their identities, they exchanged a glance, a hint of surprise flashing in their eyes.
Suddenly, the three men drew their swords, and three curved blades of light slashed towards Li Yao with lightning speed.
"Overestimating yourself!"
Li Yao suddenly stomped his foot.
Suddenly, a violent aura erupted and swept out in all directions.
In an instant, three members of the Blue Moon Sect were thrown into the air and crashed heavily to the ground, wailing in pain.
The three were shocked. They hadn't expected their opponent to be so powerful, injuring them severely without even making a move.
Seeing that things were not going well, the three of them got up from the ground, turned around and ran away.
However, before they had run very far, they suddenly saw a figure appear before them without warning.
"ah?"
"You...are you a human or a ghost?"
The three were utterly horrified.
How exactly did the other party appear before them?
Li Yao said calmly, "Take me to Blue Moon City."
"Don't even think about it!"
A strange glint flashed in the eyes of all three of them simultaneously.
Li Yao thought to himself: Oh no, they're going to commit suicide by poisoning themselves.
At the same time, he flicked his finger, and a burst of energy struck one of the warriors, instantly knocking him unconscious.
The other two immediately rolled their eyes, foamed at the mouth, and their faces turned black. They fell straight to the ground, already dead.
Li Yao was quite surprised.
Unexpectedly, knowing they were no match for him and fearing the exposure of the Blue Moon Sect's secrets, the three decisively chose to commit suicide by poison.
This shows that the Blue Moon Sect is indeed extremely secretive.
Fortunately, he noticed in time and knocked one of them unconscious.
Of course, with his amazing speed, he could easily knock all three of them unconscious.
However, he only needs someone to guide him to Blue Moon City; leaving just one person behind is enough.
"You've been watching this show from the sidelines for so long, aren't you tired?"
After knocking the warrior unconscious, Li Yao finally spoke.
In fact, he had already noticed that besides the people from the Blue Moon Sect, there was another person who had also followed him from the restaurant.
The Blue Moon Sect members were unaware that someone else was hiding behind them.
Judging from the aura, Li Yao realized that this person was quite powerful.
While he was dealing with the Blue Moon Sect members, this person remained hidden in the shadows and did not leave.
So Li Yao asked the other party to show themselves.
Sure enough, a moment later, a red figure appeared in front of Li Yao.
The other party turned out to be a stunningly beautiful woman.
The woman was dressed in a long red dress, exuding feminine charm. She had a slender figure and graceful curves, and a sinister look appeared on her smooth face. She was like a venomous snake, making people shudder.
The woman cupped her hands in greeting to Li Yao and said, "Young hero, your martial arts are truly impressive!"
Young hero?
Li Yao chuckled inwardly.
He had already spent many years wandering through various heavens and worlds.
If you add everything up, he's already lived for decades and is no longer some young hero.
Of course, he has the secret to preserving his youthful appearance, and he does look very young.
Li Yao looked the woman over with interest and asked, "Who are you?"
The woman was quite open and didn't hide anything, introducing herself as, "I am the leader of the Defeatless Sect, seeking extinction..."
"So you're seeking death?"
Li Yao was somewhat surprised.
In the vast deserts of the Western Regions, there exist two forces, standing side by side.
Firstly, there are traditional forces: they have no way to defeat them.
Secondly, there is the emerging force: the Blue Moon Sect.
Faced with the aggressive and powerful Blue Moon Sect, the Defeatless Sect was already finding it difficult to resist.
At least, Qiu Jue, the sect leader of the Blue Moon Sect, was no match for the Blue Moon Saint Master.
In a short period of time, the Blue Moon Sect swallowed up almost half of the territory of the Defeatless Gate.
Originally, Li Yao planned that if he couldn't find out the location of Blue Moon City, he would go to find Bai Jue Wu Men.
Because, unlike the Blue Moon Sect, the Defeat Without Gate is not mysterious and is easy to find.
Qiu Jue was not surprised by Li Yao's unexpected turn of events.
In the vast desert, who doesn't know her name!
Qiu Jue asked, "May I ask how you are addressed, young hero?"
"Li Er!"
Li Yao blurted it out.
He was worried that revealing his real name would frighten the other person.
Li Er?
Qiu Jue had never heard of this name before.
She was on the second floor of the restaurant when she overheard someone asking about the Blue Moon Sect. Out of curiosity, she followed them.
She didn't expect that Li Yao would not make a move, but would severely injure several people from the Blue Moon Sect with just his aura.
This shows that Li Yao was by no means an ordinary person.
It must be some reclusive master from the Central Plains.
Now, with no way out, she is declining day by day under the suppression of the Blue Moon Sect.
Seeing that Li Yao was exceptionally skilled, she wanted to use him to deal with the Blue Moon Sect.
Therefore, she asked, "Young Master Li, why do you want to inquire about the whereabouts of the Blue Moon Sect?"
Li Yao didn't hide anything and said directly, "Little Dragon seizes the Golden Knife!"
The Little Dragon's Golden Blade and the Giant Dragon's Blood-Lacking Blade are the two most famous divine weapons in the desert.
The creator of the Twin Dragon Sword was one of the swordsmiths from the Sword Worship Manor who participated in forging the Sword of Defeat back then.
This swordsmith was the only one who was not killed by the 'aura of ferocity and death'.
To prevent the Sword of Destruction from being reborn and to save his own life, the swordsmith stole the sword's spirit and fled to the desert.
Then, he hid the sword spirit in the Little Dragon Stealing Gold Blade that he had forged.
To avoid revealing his true abilities, he forged a giant dragon-shaped blade that could cut through iron like mud, which, together with the small dragon-shaped blade, was known as the Great Desert Twin Dragon Blades.
No one knew that the infamous Sword Soul of Defeat was actually hidden in the desert, thousands of miles away from the Central Plains.
"Little Dragon steals the golden knife?"
Qiu Jue frowned.
It turns out that the other party wanted to seize the Little Dragon Golden Saber from the Blue Moon Sect.
In this way, wouldn't I be able to sit back and watch the tigers fight, and then profit from it?
A hint of joy flashed in Qiu Jue's eyes.
She quickly became serious and said, "That's right, the Little Dragon Golden Blade is in the Blue Moon Sect. It is said that this blade can cut through iron like mud, it is extremely sharp, and it is known as the Great Desert Twin Dragon Blades along with the Giant Dragon Bloodless Blade..."
Li Yao could easily see that Qiu Jue was thinking of a drastic measure.
Qiu Jue's enthusiastic praise of Xiaolong's Golden Saber was simply a ploy to have him steal it from the Blue Moon Sect.
In this way, Qiu Jue can sit back and watch the tigers fight.
Li Yao didn't expose Qiu Jue's intentions, but instead said, "You know so much about the Blue Moon Sect, you must know the location of the Blue Moon Maze City. Why don't you lead me there?"
