With the death of Prince Ning, the group of soldiers he brought with him suddenly became like a swarm of headless flies.
In addition, Lu Xiaochuan arrived with a group of Imperial Guards and quickly subdued the soldiers.
The malignant tumors that needed to be addressed have basically been eradicated.
Li Yao decided to leave this world of the Ming Dynasty.
However, before leaving, he handed a pre-prepared wax pellet to Lu Xiaochuan, asking Lu Xiaochuan to bring it back to Zhengde in the capital.
Inside this wax pellet was a slip of paper with sixteen characters written on it:
If the ruler is wise, the poison will be eliminated; if the ruler is foolish, the poison will take effect!
Chapter 206 Crossing the Winds of Change, Peerless City
Wushuang City, a roadside stall.
Li Yao sat at a table, eating a steamed bun while quietly observing his surroundings, lost in thought.
Not long ago, he traveled through time again and came to this world.
After making some inquiries, he learned that the place he had come from was called Wushuang City.
Upon hearing the words "Peerless City," he immediately thought of the world of Fengyun.
Sure enough, after making inquiries, he learned that the city lord of Wushuang City was none other than Dugu Yifang.
In this turbulent world, the waters run deep!
He carefully observed the soldiers patrolling the city and discovered that these ordinary soldiers were all equivalent to top-tier masters in the world of martial arts.
The military power in this world is truly terrifying!
Moreover, he could clearly sense that the spiritual energy of this world was much richer than that of the number one world under heaven.
This world can be described as a place where hidden talents abound.
Even the ordinary patrol soldiers of Wushuang City possess this level of strength.
So, how powerful must these peerless experts with names and surnames be, such as Nameless, Sword Saint, Hegemon, Godless, Martial Invincible, and Emperor Shitian?
While shocked, Li Yao also felt a surge of intense fighting spirit, and couldn't help but feel excited.
Only in a world teeming with experts can his strength continuously and rapidly improve.
Moreover, this world contains many divine skills and techniques, which will surely allow him to gain a deeper understanding and refinement of martial arts.
When he first transmigrated to the world of Fengyun, the system gave him a hint.
Once his cultivation level reaches the Refining God Realm, the system will unlock more features.
For example: backpack space, weapon smelting, etc.
Now, his cultivation level has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Once his true qi attribute reaches 4500 points, he can break through the Qi Refining Realm and advance to the Divine Refining Realm.
Therefore, his most important task right now is to quickly improve his strength.
The fastest way to improve your strength is, of course, to find and challenge experts and take advantage of them.
Since the system has sent me to Wushuang City, let's start from Wushuang City.
Wushuang City was actually just a city in appearance, not a real city officially designated by the emperor.
However, this fake city, Wushuang City, is no less impressive than ordinary cities.
The main altar of Wushuang City is located in Yuzhou, Henan, while its branch altars are spread across more than 300 different places in China.
Its influence was second only to the World Society.
Since Xiong Ba recruited Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng, the Tianxia Society has developed rapidly, quickly subduing many martial arts sects and occupying most of the martial arts power.
This is why Wushuang City, which was originally the dominant force in the martial arts world, had to be relegated to second place and restrained by the Tianxia Society.
Within the main altar of Wushuang City, besides the city lord Dugu Yifang and his family, as well as his followers, there are also some local commoners from Yuzhou living in the city.
However, the common people of Wushuang City have an extremely low status and are regarded as worthless by Dugu Yifang, who arbitrarily exploits them and imposes heavy taxes on them.
Therefore, ragged beggars could be seen everywhere in the city.
Although Li Yao was ruthless, he always targeted those who disagreed with him in the martial arts world.
Moreover, he has always hated evil as if it were his enemy.
Since Dugu Yifang is so cruel and inhumane, don't blame him for plotting against Wushuang City.
Of course, he also knew that the current Dugu Yifang was actually a fake.
Just as Li Yao was deep in thought, he suddenly sensed a strong killing intent.
This murderous aura actually came from a six or seven-year-old girl.
However, this murderous aura was not directed at Li Yao, but at the steamed bun in Li Yao's hand.
The little girl was sucking on her index finger, her eyes fixed on the steamed bun, as if she wanted to kill... no, eat the steamed bun in Li Yao's hand right away.
Li Yao chuckled to himself.
I looked at the little girl carefully. She had two small braids in her hair, a round face with a touch of apple red, and she was short and chubby, looking just like a little winter melon that wouldn't fall over. She was so cute.
Judging from her appearance, she didn't seem to be from a poor family lacking food and clothing.
Li Yao smiled and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"
The little girl's eyes were still greedily fixed on the steamed bun, and she said weakly, "My name is... Little Cat."
kitten?
A greedy little cat?
As expected, his name reflects his character.
Li Yao picked up an uneaten steamed bun from the plate and asked, "Want some?"
"Um!"
The kitten nodded heavily, then snatched the steamed bun in its hand as if grabbing it, and immediately stuffed it into its mouth, as if afraid that Li Yao would change his mind.
In no time, the kitten devoured the steamed bun.
She then continued to stare intently at the steamed bun in Li Yao's hand.
Just then, a childish yet mature voice rang out: "You greedy little cat, it's not like we don't feed you at home, why are you always so hungry? You're always looking for food everywhere, and now you're begging strangers for food, aren't you ashamed..."
Before the words were even finished, the kitten burst into loud wailing.
It turned out that the kitten's ears had been grabbed by a boy who was about ten years old.
The boy had regular features, wore coarse cloth clothes, and had a maturity on his face that was beyond his years.
Li Yao laughed and said, "Don't blame her, I gave her the steamed bun on my own initiative."
The boy said, "Big brother, you don't need to speak well of her. I'm her brother, and I know her best. She's just a greedy little cat."
Suddenly, a warhorse galloped towards them.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way now!"
The warhorses galloped wildly, crashing into and overturning many roadside stalls, scattering various goods all over the ground. Pedestrians were so frightened that they immediately swerved to the sides, and those who couldn't get out of the way were knocked to the ground, screaming in pain.
The riders, however, acted as if they hadn't seen anything, showing no regard for human life, and charged past recklessly.
At that moment, the kitten and her brother were standing on the side of the street.
Just as the warhorse was about to crash into them from the side, Li Yao immediately swung his right hand.
A sharp burst of energy shot towards the warhorse.
A bloodcurdling neigh was heard as the warhorse was torn apart by the force of the air. The rider on the horse did a quick somersault and landed unsteadily on the ground.
The man, his face contorted with rage, charged forward menacingly and demanded of Li Yao, "Boy, was it you who laid the first hand on me?"
"good!"
Li Yao said calmly.
"court death!"
A murderous glint flashed in the man's eyes as he drew his sword and slashed at Li Yao's head.
Li Yao flipped his hand and blasted the man away, sending him crashing to the ground and creating a large crater, killing him instantly.
"What amazing kung fu!"
"Well done!"
“These bastards never treated us like human beings, this is what they deserve.”
"Stop talking, or someone might overhear..."
"Young man, run away quickly. If the city lord finds out you killed his men, you might lose your life."
"..."
Pedestrians on the street were talking about it, and some kind-hearted people even reminded Li Yao to run away quickly.
Chapter 207 Running away now, isn't it too late? (Revised)
The kitten and her brother, who had almost been trampled to death by a horse, took a long time to react.
Suddenly, two beams of light shot out from the kitten's eyes.
"Big brother, your martial arts are so amazing, please take me, 'Xiao Nan,' as your disciple!"
Little Cat Brother Xiao Nan suddenly knelt down in front of Li Yao and kowtowed repeatedly.
Li Yao quickly helped Xiao Nan up and asked, "Why do you want to learn martial arts?"
"Once I've mastered martial arts, I'll personally defeat Dugu Yifang!"
