Chapter 7 – Hiding In a Cave From the Rain
Whoosh!
A golden ray of light shot out from Changxing Town, piercing the clouds.
Li Guanqi looked up sharply and saw someone in white robes walking on air with a sword hanging by his waist. His face paled. “If this person can fly and has a sword... He must be a Foundation Building Realm cultivator!”
When Zhao Yuanlin saw the cultivator, he hurriedly took out two more paper talismans and pasted them on his body. They transformed into a golden protective screen that covered him.
He finally relaxed and lay down on the ground, laughing hysterically. “Hahahaha! You idiot! You idiot! You can’t kill me! I’m going to skin you alive when we meet again!”
Li Guanqi took a deep breath. After weighing his options, he decided to leave. While he was sure he could figure out a way to break the protective shield, it would take a lot of time. Since he had not cultivated qi yet, facing a Foundation Building Realm cultivator meant certain death.
Li Guanqi collected the coppers and then hoisted Meng Wanshu up from the waist, causing her to cry out in surprise. With Meng Wanshu in his arms, Li Guanqi leaped on a horse, and then sped off toward their village.
When the white-robed cultivator saw Zhao Yuanlin’s injuries, his face paled.
Finally seeing hope, Zhao Yuanlin shouted, “Master Zhao... h-help me out first... We’ll... we’ll catch that bastard later.”
The short man scooped Zhao Yuanlin into his arms and left.
As for the other guards—well, whether they lived or died, they had nothing to do with him.
