The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 357
Chapter 357 Wait for Gains Without Pains
To be sure, Yin Qianyu did not have much evidence in her hands. Even she herself did not dare to be certain what Li Qing’s secret was. However, it didn’t matter. She could forge a lot of evidence and fabricate nonsense. As long as it aroused the suspicions of others, the purpose was to get the Heavenly Alliance to arrest Li Qing.
As long as Li Qing was captured and carefully examined, all the secrets would be revealed. Li Qing simply could not withstand scrutiny.
Li Qing guessed that Yin Qianyu also had connections in the Heavenly Alliance. Perhaps there were spies from Diabolism in important positions. Otherwise, it would be impossible for them to cooperate so well. Just as she left, the law enforcement team came from behind.
This plot could be considered to be extremely sinister. In the Holy City, there was no way to escape. There was no way for him to use any methods. He could only obediently surrender and be captured. If Li Qing was captured back, he would have to peel off his skin even if he didn’t die.
Fortunately, Li Qing was cautious enough to use the Myriad Demons True Body to change his body shape in advance, so he was able to escape by luck.
“No matter how cunning you are, you won’t be able to predict my methods!” Li Qing sneered.
Speaking of which, in the process of fighting Yin Qianyu, Li Qing had always been at a disadvantage, which made him feel somewhat aggrieved.
However, this was mainly because Yin Qianyu had grasped Liu Ke’er’s whereabouts. This was his Achilles’ heel, so he was repeatedly plotted by her.
If it weren’t for this, Li Qing would not have given her the chance to play tricks if he had already dealt with her with a single blade the first time he caught her.
If he saw her again in the future, he would not waste words with her, because he no longer had any weaknesses in her hands.
“Although she has plotted many times, the result is good. I still know Ke’er’s whereabouts.” Li Qing heaved a sigh of relief.
In order to obtain Liu Ke’er’s whereabouts, it didn’t matter no matter how high the price was, what was this bit of grievance worth?
However, Liu Ke’er was a Holy Maiden of the White Lotus Sect, which made him rather annoyed. It was not an easy task to rescue her.
“Forget it, let’s not think about it for now. I can’t even find the White Lotus Sect anywhere.” Li Qing sighed. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Righteous path, the White Lotus Sect was hiding very secretly. Ordinary people simply could not find the whereabouts of the core figures.
“The Holy City is too dangerous. Ever since Yin Qianyu exposed my secret, everyone wants to deal with me! This place is not suitable for staying for long. It’s time to leave the city!”
Li Qing looked at the huge city and felt a huge pressure. In this place, he didn’t dare to use all of his abilities, so he could only hide them tightly for fear of being discovered. Once they were discovered, they wouldn’t be able to escape.
With his current strength, he could definitely be considered an overlord in the outside world. However, he had to behave honestly here. The slightest bit of wind and grass would cause his heart to tremble.
The city gates were also under martial law, and there were many more people. They carefully inspected the pedestrians in the past, all of them wanting to capture Li Qing.
There were no flaws in the Myriad Demons’ true bodies, so with their eyesight, they naturally couldn’t detect anything wrong. Li Qing smoothly passed through the city gate and left the Holy City.
…
After Li Qing left the Holy City, he did not leave immediately. Instead, he hid not far from the city.
He was planning to wait and see if anyone came out to hunt him down.
Earlier, Li Qing had been attacked by Chen Shifeng in the Little Thousand Worlds of the Saber God. According to the other party, this was someone who wanted to kill him. Li Qing had been guessing who the mastermind was. He had a faint guess in his heart, but he was unable to confirm it.
“I left the Holy City. Ordinary people won’t be able to find my whereabouts. I’m sure they’ll calm down. Most people won’t come looking for trouble with me anymore. Only those who truly harbor malicious intentions towards me will chase after me.” Li Qing thought to himself.
Actually, this was a big chance. After all, the other party might not be able to catch up with him at any time, let alone pass by Li Qing’s place.
However, it wasn’t a big deal to wait here for a few days. Even if he didn’t get any results, he wouldn’t lose anything.
The news of Li Qing disappearing out of thin air attracted the attention of many people in the Holy City. Could it be that this fellow had a guilty conscience and didn’t dare to accept an investigation? Otherwise, why did he disappear at this moment?
This matter was heated up by everyone for a period of time, and soon subsided. In the end, Li Qing was just a young man. Perhaps he had some secrets, but it was not worth everyone’s attention.
All the gossip about Li Qing was just a matter of hunting the wind and shadows. Why bother to fight over something that had not been confirmed? No one will be so idle that they have to live with this young man. Therefore, after Li Qing disappeared for a period of time, most of the unrelated people forgot about this matter.
Only those who truly cared about it would die and not let go.
Li Qing waited outside the city for three whole days, but he was disappointed. Without waiting for the person he wanted to wait for, he did not stay any longer and left the Holy City.
A few thousand miles away from the Holy City, Li Qing recovered his appearance and walked on the road openly.
He believed that the news of his appearance would soon be noticed by those who were interested. He intended to choose a suitable place to settle down with those who wanted to murder him.
This was also due to his confidence in his own strength, which was why he dared to settle accounts with unknown enemies. There were many people who wanted to capture him, and there were probably people from the Holy Land among them. This was because of the Yuan Emperor’s secret technique!
“Not far away is the Ancient Era’s Heavenspan Mountain. Now it is called the Demon Emperor Mountain, and it is a famous ancient land. I might as well go up the mountain and take a look. I might as well fight the enemy to the death there!” Li Qing made up his mind.
…
In the headquarters of the Heavenly Alliance in the Holy City, there was a group of people discussing matters in a spacious courtyard.
If Li Qing was here, he could recognize many acquaintances. Among them, Yan Beilou, He Tiancheng, Yan Zheng, and the others were present. There were also some experts he had seen before, and they were from the Four Great Sacred Grounds!
Everyone from the Four Great Sacred Grounds had arrived!
The leaders of the Four Great Sacred Grounds were all Xiantian 9-dan experts.
Yan Bei Lou, He Tiancheng, and Yan Zheng could only sit at the bottom obediently, not daring to interrupt. They quietly listened to Senior discussing the matter.
At first glance, there were no fewer than ten experts at the seventh level of the Xiantian Realm alone! This lineup could be said to be extremely terrifying.
However, these experts were nothing to the Holy Lands of the Eastern Region.
In the sacred land, experts above the seventh level of the Innate Realm could only be guardians. In order to become an elder, one had to be an expert at the Void Realm.
If it was a Dao Realm expert, it would be Supreme Elder.
This was a level higher than an ordinary sect.
“Why did Li Qing disappear into the Holy City?” The Sword Sect expert said.
“I don’t know, this brat is a bit corrupt. I can’t see through how this brat managed to escape.”
“I originally thought that I could use this opportunity to capture this brat. Everything was settled, but I didn’t expect him to escape!” The people from Chaos City said.
“I’ve suggested before that we use the Heavenly Alliance’s connections to capture Li Qing. Why should we care about that bit of face?” The people from the Cosmos Sect said.
“It would be better if he escaped. It would be convenient for us to do something! In case he stays in the Holy City forever, we can’t do anything to him!” The experts of the various sects said.
“According to the news, Li Qing appeared near the Heavenspan Mountain. This person should be trying to ascend the Heavenspan Mountain.”
“Heavenspan Mountain? Isn’t that the Demon Emperor Mountain? What is he doing there?”
“Who cares? Hurry up and send someone to arrest him.”
Someone asked doubtfully, “What is Li Qing’s current strength? With so many of us working together, can we capture him? Don’t let him escape at that time.”
“How is it possible to escape? Li Qing is just a junior. I can capture him by myself.” Someone said disdainfully.
“Don’t underestimate Li Qing. We sent Chen Shifeng into the Lesser Thousand Worlds of the Saber God, but Li Qing is still alive and well. Maybe this kid has a trump card to save his life.”
It turned out that Chen Shifeng was actually sent in by the people of the Four Great Sacred Grounds. However, it was reasonable to think that the quota for entering the Lesser Thousand Worlds was too expensive. If it wasn’t for the big powers, it would be impossible for them to invite an Earth Rankings expert.
The price for inviting Chen Shifeng to take action was the resources they had applied for from the sect. They could not use these resources at will. Although they represented the Four Great Sacred Grounds here, their identities were merely guardians. How could they have any authority?
In fact, they had gathered here this time to plot against Li Qing, and they were only doing things for the sect. The higher-ups had instructed them to obtain Li Qing’s Primordial Emperor Secret Technique. Only by accepting such a task would they be qualified to use the name of the sect.
The Yuan Emperor’s secret art was much more precious than Li Qing had imagined. It actually attracted the attention of the people from the Four Great Sacred Grounds. Coupled with the secrets hidden in Li Qing’s body, no wonder so many people were tempted.
“Let me analyze Li Qing’s strength.” The guardian of Chaos City said, “Back then, when Li Qing was at the fourth level of Xiantian, he was already able to kill the seventh level of Xiantian by relying on the Origin Emperor’s secret arts. Then, his current cultivation is at the sixth level of Xiantian. Perhaps he is not much weaker than the ninth level of Xiantian.”
Everyone’s hearts trembled when they heard this.
“That’s right. Why didn’t I expect that Li Qing’s cultivation would increase too quickly? I still have my previous impression of him, and he almost caused a great calamity.” Someone cried out.
Everyone present were all formidable figures. They were extremely cunning, so they naturally wouldn’t make the mistake of underestimating their enemies. After a few reminders, he immediately regained his senses.
“Why do we need to increase the ambition of others and destroy our own prestige? We are Holy Land martial artists. Our strength is even greater than that of the martial artists outside. So what if Li Qing is comparable to an ordinary Xiantian ninth layer martial artist?”
There were still people who were stubborn.
“That makes sense. With so many of us, our combat strength is already sufficient. I’m afraid that Li Qing will be lucky enough to escape by then. Therefore, we must set up a heavenly net! We must not be careless!”
After some discussion, everyone finally arranged a plan to capture Li Qing.
Just as they were discussing how to deal with Li Qing, he had already climbed the Heavenspan Mountain and was visiting this world-famous divine mountain.
