Chapter 1256: Chapter 557: Threat from the Imperial City (Part 2)

Li Fengrou listened to what he said and immediately showed a serious expression: ”Do you have any other ideas? Tell us.”

”Your Highness, I think the only way is to have Zhao Tianling’s master, Xiao Lingtian, involved.”

The person who spoke earlier thought for a moment and then added: ”He’s lost four disciples this time and will surely seek revenge.”

”We can follow the trend, and then everything will naturally fall into place.”

”Will he take action?”

”Yes, this old man is very stubborn.”

”His disciples were killed, so he will definitely seek revenge.”

”...”

The few people began to discuss among themselves.

Each showed a somber expression.

Clearly, they were not confident in persuading the old man to take action.

”You all handle this matter; this time, make sure she never gets back on track.”

Li Fengrou’s eyes flashed with a trace of ruthlessness: ”My imperial sister is truly stubborn and insists on returning, so don’t blame me for being ruthless.”

”Yes, Your Highness!”

”...”

The people below her responded in unison.

Each wore a serious expression.

After everyone dismissed, Li Xiangrou also got up.

She headed towards the backyard, arriving at a rockery in the estate.

Standing here, one can see the direction of the Imperial City.

There, the lights were bright, and from afar, traces of Spiritual Qi could be seen swirling.

This is the place she longed for.

However, it currently does not belong to her.

”Your Highness, do you need me to take action?”

As she was observing, a voice came from behind.

”Xue Jiancheng, you heard earlier that my imperial sister might have an expert to assist her.”

Li Fengrou turned to glance at him and couldn’t help but say: ”Do you have confidence if you go?”

”I’m already at the Half-step Celestial Immortal level; how strong can he be?”

”If Xiao Lingtian doesn’t act, then I’ll go and meet him.”

”I want to see just who this esteemed figure is.”

Xue Jiancheng showed a trace of cold intent as he spoke chillingly.

”Alright, then you just follow in secret.”

”If Xiao Lingtian fails at the time, then you act!”

Li Fengrou thought for a moment, then seriously said: ”Be careful.”

”Don’t worry, I’ll be cautious, then it’s settled.”

Xue Jiancheng smiled confidently, revealing a determined demeanor.

”Alright, whether I can live there depends on you.”

Li Fengrou extended her slender jade-like hand, pointing in the direction of the Imperial City.

In those eyes, showed a trace of resolute determination.

...

Ning Qi, after regulating his breath for a night, appeared refreshed.

When the morning sun spread, he came out from his breath adjustment.

After leaving the room, he quickly arrived at the courtyard.

He saw Li Xiangrou sitting by the creek outside, watching the water quietly flow past her.

”Why are you interested in coming here?”

Ning Qi approached and asked with a smile.

”Ning Qi, we can go back in three days or so.”

”In the recent days, my imperial sister surely won’t let me return.”

Li Xiangrou thought and then said: ”Do you think there’s a way to bypass her obstacles?”

”Do you have any other routes here?”

Ning Qi also thought for a moment and asked in a deep voice.

”No, other routes would be very far, and we don’t know if she has eyes here.”

”Even if we take a detour, she will surely sense it!”

Li Xiangrou shook her head, sighed: ”The road ahead will definitely be more dangerous, she won’t let it go easily.”

”If that’s the case, let’s just move forward.”

”I’ll protect you on the way ahead!”

Ning Qi wasn’t worried, instead, he was interested in the road ahead.

The people following them will definitely become stronger.

Then, it would be a good chance to test his current strength.

To see how strong a Heavenly Immortal really is.

Currently, these people’s strength is too weak, and there’s no chance to test at all.

”How should I repay you for this immense favor?”

Li Xiangrou heard his words and showed a trace of gratitude.

If it weren’t for Ning Qi, she wouldn’t have come this far.

From the very beginning until yesterday, it was Ning Qi who stood up at crucial moments.

”No need for repayment.”

Ning Qi smiled, indifferent: ”As long as you can peacefully reach the Imperial City, my task will be complete.”

”It’s our fate; just treat it as a cultivation journey.”

”If there’s a chance, I will surely repay you.”

Li Xiangrou shook her head, seriously said: ”Whenever you need, I’ll bring our Yue Country and go through fire and water to help you.”

”Oh? Then if that day really comes, I won’t be polite.”

Ning Qi jokingly said.

In reality, they are extremely far apart, there’s no way he would need her help.

If the day comes, it would be an irresistible enemy; even if she brings people, it would still be useless.

”Agreed, I’ll wait for your message!”

Li Xiangrou believed it to be true, sincerity filling her eyes.

”Alright, then I definitely won’t be polite!”

After Ning Qi agreed, he looked at the sky: ”It’s getting late, let’s go out and prepare to set off.”

”Alright!”

Li Xiangrou slightly nodded and then stood up.

The two then arrived at the entrance of the Sumeru Courtyard.

Then opened the door to leave.

”Hoo!”

After leaving the door, the two came downstairs and saw the guards and Commander Li having breakfast.

”Miss, the meals have been prepared.”

Commander Li saw her come out and respectfully said.

”Alright! Let’s hurry and eat, we’ll set off immediately after.”

Li Xiangrou agreed and then sat down.

Then she began eating quickly.

After half a two-hour period, their convoy was ready to depart.

”We’re setting off!”

With Commander Li’s command.

The convoy set off again.

Ning Qi still sat in the same carriage with Li Xiangrou, and he steered the carriage.

”Ning Qi, you think after yesterday’s failure, they won’t come today?”

Li Xiangrou was still pondering this matter.

”That depends on your sister’s character.”

”If it were me, I wouldn’t let you get close to the Imperial City!”

Ning Qi seriously said: ”The closer the days get, the more I’d find ways to prevent you from reaching the Imperial City.”

”Yesterday was just an appetizer; the road ahead will be the real test.”

”Her people, she only has few with True Immortal strength.”

”She’s likely spent quite a bit to invite these people.”

Li Xiangrou began calculating: ”This is probably to ensure her future succession, making numerous promises.”

”That’s why they agreed to help her; otherwise, no one would take the risk.”

”That has nothing to do with me.”

”I just hope she can send some capable people.”

”Otherwise, it’s a waste of my time.”

Ning Qi shrugs, showing a harmless demeanor: ”Those with yesterday’s level, better not come again, they’d just be courting death, not my match.”

”If only I had your strength, I wouldn’t need to think about such things.”

Li Xiangrou listened and couldn’t help but show a trace of envy.

”Someday you’ll reach this level; I’ve given you Spirit Pills and Marvelous Medicine, as well as cultivation techniques and weapons, use them wisely.”

”They’ll be useful in the future; as long as you persist in cultivation, you’ll soon catch up to me.”

Ning Qi smiled at Li Xiangrou: ”When all are used up, you’ll have to find a way yourself.”

”Before they are gone, I must break through to True Immortal strength.”

Li Xiangrou heard his words and showed resolute determination.

”You certainly can.”

Ning Qi continued to encourage.

”Master, this girl has a fighting spirit, I also sense she can accomplish it.”

Medicine Spirit commented as it listened to the two chatting.
