I Killed Gods and Demons in Song Dynasty

Chapter 21 Invitation from Kaifeng Prefecture

Li Qingyun came back to his senses and found that the power accumulated in his body had suddenly increased dramatically. He was surprised and happy.

The energy and blood that he had been searching for so hard but could not find anywhere was actually replenished during this dream journey.

He didn't expect that this so-called "Spiritual Wizard" of the fourth realm, although only had a little spiritual seed, could actually provide a large amount of energy and blood, allowing him to reap a lot of benefits.

It is true that those who survive a great disaster will be blessed in the future... Li Qingyun muttered to himself and let out a long breath, his heart still pounding.

This experience was really dangerous, and I almost lost my life.

In the final analysis, it was because of his own low abilities. Even though he was favored by the gods and even though he had such extraordinary magical powers, he had almost no ability to protect himself because the time he traveled through was too short.

In such a twisted, crazy, bizarre world, there are all kinds of crises at any time, which cannot be avoided simply by being cautious and vigilant.

For example, when the spiritual seed was planted in him this time, if it weren’t for the reminders from Ai Hu, Lu Zhen and others, he wouldn’t even know what happened.

Even someone as powerful as Lu Zhen, who is known as a "psychic", was helpless at times and had no power to resist the extremely strange "Gate to the Fantasy World".

Li Qingyun secretly rejoiced, but also felt a little scared.

Although he escaped this disaster by relying on his supernatural powers and luck, the horse-faced man is still hiding in the dark and may come back again at any time.

I can't relax at all until I figure out his purpose and kill him.

Become stronger, I want to become stronger!
Replaying the entire process, Li Qingyun, who had witnessed the battle between high-level experts, felt his blood boiling. He had never had such an urgent desire to improve his strength.

This not only comes from the innate yearning for power, but also is the human instinct for survival.

……

With the disappearance of the horse-faced man, the "Gate to the Fantasy World" he summoned also vanished. Lu Zhen, who was pulled halfway, was now lying limply on the ground, motionless, and seemed to have lost consciousness.

Perhaps because he had burned too much energy, his spirit had become somewhat illusory and transparent.

Li Qingyun was full of energy and spirit at this time, and his senses became very sharp. He knew that the other party was not dead and there was still a faint breath left. So he sat on the ground, quietly guarding beside him, waiting for him to regain consciousness.

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, Lu Zhen finally woke up slowly. Looking at Li Qingyun beside him, he slowly asked:
"what happened?"

Li Qingyun didn't want to reveal his secret, so he said casually:
"I don't know either. The guy wanted to attack me, but for some reason he collapsed first."

Lu Zhen knew that he was talking nonsense, and used his remaining spiritual power to sense it. He found that Li Qingyun's spirit was indeed not possessed, and there was nothing abnormal. He was relieved and said:
"I'm glad you're okay. Don't worry, we all have secrets, and I won't say anything."

Li Qingyun had prepared a lot of nonsense, but he didn't expect Lu Zhen to be so reasonable, so he said apologetically:
"Captain Lu, I'm so sorry that I almost caused you to lose your life this time."

Lu Zhen said calmly:
"Don't take it personally. I'm the lieutenant of Kaifeng Prefecture, and my job is to protect the common people and fight against evil spirits.

"Those who eat our rice bowls must always be aware of their mortality."

He stood up with difficulty:
"Your problem has probably been solved. We can't stay here too long. Let's go together."

As he spoke, he grabbed Li Qingyun's shoulders with trembling hands and began to shuttle him quickly through his consciousness...

……

"Snapped!"

With a snap of his fingers, Li Qingyun, who was immersed in the darkness, suddenly started and came back to his senses.

He looked up and found that he had returned to the real world and reappeared in the small house.

Opposite him was the pale-faced Lu Zhen, who looked like he had just come out of a hot bath. White mist was steaming all over his body, his hair was wet and beads of sweat were dripping down. He no longer looked as calm and composed as before, but more like a dead person who had just crawled out of a coffin.

"Captain Lu..." Li Qingyun felt sorry when he saw the other party's miserable appearance.

Lu Zhen didn't care. She smiled and waved her hand, then took him to the door and gently pushed it open.

The warm afternoon sun shone into the house. Li Qingyun took a deep breath of the cool air, which tasted sweet and delicious.

That's the smell of freedom.

Only then did he realize that several people had gathered at the door, with different expressions, but all their eyes were focused on him.

"Om..."

A humming sound was heard, and the first person to speak was Fang Shuan, who had successfully gathered his energy.

"Boss Li, have you thought it through? Are you willing to let my fourth uncle enter your dream?"

Next to him was Bai Yunrui in white. He frowned when he saw Lu Zhen's expression:
"Brother Lu? How did you become like this?"

It turned out that Bai Yunrui and Fang Shuan had just returned from work. When they heard Ai Hu say that Lu Zhen was entering Li Qingyun's dream, they immediately came over to see what was going on.

As a result, the two people did not come out for a long time. They were anxious like ants on a hot pan, but they did not dare to rush in and disturb them.

Lu Zhen laughed bitterly:
"Yunrui, I was too confident this time. If it weren't for my good luck, I might not have been able to come back."

As he spoke, he recounted the experience of entering the dream, emphasizing the appearance of the horse-faced man, but deliberately glossed over the battle process to conceal the details from Li Qingyun.

The people present were terrified and speechless for a long time. Finally, Bai Yunrui spoke first:

"Fourth brother, that horse-faced man must have a great relationship with the Wu Shi Sect. You will have to trouble yourself to restore his portrait later so that we can find him and bring him back to Kaifeng Prefecture to investigate."

Lu Zhen nodded and agreed.

Bai Yunrui looked at Li Qingyun again and said:

"Boss Li, although the spirit that invaded your dream has been destroyed, no one knows whether it has left any other hidden dangers. I hope you can stay in Kaifeng Prefecture for a while and go back after confirming that there is no danger."

Li Qingyun understood that Bai Yunrui was afraid that there were hidden dangers in his body, which might cause him to lose control and cause harm in the future.

But if he stayed in Kaifeng Prefecture all the time, what would be the difference between that and being under house arrest?
After living a new life, struggling to survive, and finally regaining his freedom, he doesn't want to live like a prisoner.

As if seeing his difficulty, Lu Zhen suddenly said:

"In my opinion, even if there are still some spirit seeds left in Boss Li's body, it won't break out immediately. How about this, let him report to Kaifeng Mansion once a day, and I will personally check him. If he is fine, he can leave.

"He is the leader of a gang after all. It is not a good idea for him to stay here all day long."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingyun cast a grateful look at Lu Zhen.

He also knew that he might have hidden dangers and did not object to being examined by Lu Zhen, as long as he was not locked up in Kaifeng Prefecture and deprived of his personal freedom.

Bai Yunrui was about to speak, but Fang Shuan shook his head and laughed:

"Well... I think it would be better if we let Brother Qingyun join our Kaifeng Prefecture and investigate this matter with me and my uncle.

"First, we can keep an eye on him to prevent him from getting into any trouble; second, he is deeply involved in this case and can be considered a victim, so we should do our part both publicly and privately.

"Boss Li, what do you think?"
