Chapter 158: Quanzhen
When saving someone, one must save them thoroughly. By now, Li Yanchu could be considered quite wealthy, so he no longer had to scrimp or save.
He was worlds apart from that Third Master Feng, and he could crush him with a flick of the hand. However, if one truly wanted to save someone, relying solely on coercion wouldn’t work. Otherwise, Li Yanchu feared it might backfire and lead to an even worse outcome.
After nightfall, Li Yanchu remained in his room cultivating the Yellow Court Classics, delving into its divine technique.
That young woman he met during the day had left a deep impression on him. That middle-aged swordsman by the riverside exuded a chilling killing intent, and he was definitely not some run-of-the-mill wanderer of the jianghu.
The spirit qi within his body flowed unceasingly, causing Li Yanchu’s cultivation to steadily improve day by day. His mastery of the Sun Veil had also reached a gratifying level, with new insights gained each day.
Three days passed just like that.
Then one day, Bai Hongtu suddenly received a letter from home and came to bid Li Yanchu farewell.
“My father’s put his foot down. He says if I don’t hurry back home, he’ll kick me out of the family.” Bai Hongtu gave a bitter smile.
Li Yanchu felt a bit regretful. “The Blissful Land is about to open. Leaving at a time like this... Don’t you think it’s too much of a pity?”
After all, this Blissful Land in Wei City had attracted countless prying eyes and greedy hearts. People were killing each other left and right for that shard of jade.
Bai Hongtu smiled. “Opportunities like this can’t be forced.” He was quite open-minded about it.
Then he added, “Last time when we went down into that ancient tomb, who knows how many evil cultivators and demonic sects we stirred up. This time, with a Blissful Land appearing in Wei City, the competition is bound to be even fiercer. My Flying Sword technique still hasn’t reached full mastery. If I go in, I’ll just end up dragging you down.
