Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1196 Fight First and Talk Later

The Sky-supporting Stone is the hardest thing in the world, so it needs to be melted with the softest real water (mercury). Taking it can greatly increase your strength.

Not to mention that drinking the mercury mixture was simply courting death in Li Chengxi's opinion. At the very least, this secret was only circulated among masters. Generally, only the leaders of small and medium-sized sects had heard of it and did not know the full story, let alone ordinary disciples or people in the martial arts world who relied entirely on inquiries for information.

The problem is, knowing this doesn't mean you have the Skystone in your hands.

After all, the appearance of this thing looks like just a piece of particularly hard white jade. Especially when it is mixed in with the pebbles on the river beach, it is difficult to distinguish it from other stones.

Even Li Chengxi doesn't have his own Sky-Reaching Stone Radar, so whether or not he can come across it depends entirely on luck. For others looking for this thing, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Let’s not talk about how the Sirius Cult got the Sky-lifting Stone. As long as they use this thing as a bargaining chip, some people whose martial arts skills have stagnated for a long time will definitely be tempted.

Yang Yiyi was a little anxious. Qin Yan thought she wanted to go out and expose the identity of the traitor, so she gently waved her fingers, signaling her to be patient and continue listening.

After a rustling sound, the middle-aged man said:
"The quantity is correct. I feel assured when cooperating with your church."

"Of course, we are not those hypocrites from the Central Plains who claim to be a noble and upright sect but are actually two-faced."

There was a hint of sarcasm in what he said, and once it was spoken, silence fell outside, as if two groups were confronting each other.

At this moment, the ground shook slightly, as if some strong men were fighting nearby.

"Alas... I am old and confused. You don't need to take some of my words to heart."

"How dare I? It's just a joke."

The old voice continued:
"We are done. I have other things to do. It would be bad if others saw you and me together. So I'll take my leave now."

Qin Yan heard the sound of sleeves sliding, which should be another group of people clasping their fists.

Yang Yiyi really wanted to rush out to see who the traitor was, and also wanted to directly grab the Sky-lifting Stone, but Wu Shaoyi held her wrist tightly and shook his head to signal her not to be impulsive.

The main reason is that the situation outside is unclear. You have no idea how many people there are, nor how good they are at fighting. If you rush out now, you may indeed catch them red-handed, but what then?
We must proceed cautiously in this matter and not be reckless.

From what he said just now, the one with the particularly old voice should be planning to leave. Qin Yan heard footsteps approaching their location. Could this be the way to the main gate?

As I listened, suddenly the old voice shouted angrily:

"Who is sneaking around here?"

Can’t hide it anymore?

Or did he discover some clues and plan to cheat?
These two thoughts flashed quickly through Qin Yan's mind. If it was the former, he should leave as soon as possible. If it was the latter, he should naturally continue to stay put.

But Yang Yiyi is a person of action.

When she heard it, she felt that she must have been discovered. Taking advantage of Wu Shaoyi's loose hand, Yang Yiyi directly hit the baffle.

There was a loud bang and wooden boards flew around. Yang Yiyi, who came out of the secret passage, first saw a hunchbacked old man who was at least seventy years old standing not far from the exit of the secret passage. He was using a dragon-headed cane in his hand to crackle and push away the scattered wood fragments.

This further strengthened Yang Yiyi's belief that she had been discovered. Instead of slowing down, she accelerated forward.

When the old man saw Yang Yiyi rushing out, his pupils shrank slightly, and he pointed the cane in his hand at the Baihui point on the top of Yang Yiyi's head.

Baihui is the seam of the skull and the most vulnerable part of the skull. People who have not seen the Iron Head Kung Fu obviously don’t know that this place is no longer a weak point.

There was a dull thud when the dragon-headed cane touched Yang Yiyi's head, and the energy was dispersed by the brute force of the Iron Head Kung Fu. The old man was even more surprised and immediately added more strength.

The crutch, made of unknown material, was bent into a C shape by Yang Yiyi's iron head skill, and made a crackling sound, as if it was about to break.

At this time, the crutch was like a spring. Once the spring was released, it would either hurt the old man or Yang Yiyi, and Yang Yiyi's iron head was obviously not afraid.

The old man reacted quickly and immediately withdrew his hand and stepped back. The elastic force of the crutch was immediately released, pushing him back nearly four or five feet.

All this happened in a flash, and only then did Wu Shaoyi and Qin Yan come out of the secret passage.

Outside was a very spacious space, which looked more like the main hall of some religious building. There were several rows of cushions neatly arranged on the ground. This should be the place where the followers of the Sirius Cult chanted scriptures and worshiped.

A little further away, there was an open square hole on the ground with an iron box inside. This was where I took the thing just now.

There were a total of five people standing nearby, led by a middle-aged man and four young-looking disciples.

And as expected, the middle-aged man was Liu Heng, the elder of the Liu family.

When we went to Southern Xinjiang, there were elders from the Liu family who had cooperated with the Sirius Cult. It was not surprising at all that we ran into them doing business this time.

But Liu Heng was surprised.

When Liu Heng heard the old man shouting that someone was sneaking around nearby, he was shocked, thinking that the deal had been exposed.

But when he saw that it was Yang Yiyi and the other three, he immediately calmed down.

They are just three girls from some unknown sect. It won’t be a big deal as long as we can deal with them.

Yang Yiyi had seen the transaction between the Liu family and the Tianlang Cult, but Qin Yan and Wu Shaoyi obviously had not seen it and had not told them about this.

Especially Qin Yan, when she saw that it was Liu Heng, she immediately glared at him:

"You Liu family! You are so famous, but you actually do such a dirty thing behind the scenes!"

Although Wu Shaoyi was also surprised, he was not surprised. After all, Wujiazhuang was very close to the Liu family, and Wu Shaoyi knew all about the Liu family's affairs.

Seeing that he had been recognized, Liu Heng knew that this matter had to be resolved as soon as possible.

"Lion King, it seems you can't leave yet. Can you help me settle this matter?"

The old man known as the Lion King looked at Yang Yiyi, who was like a tiger out of a cage, and actually shook his head:
"I'm too old to do the fighting and killing work. The deal is over. You should solve your own affairs in the Central Plains."

After saying that, he tapped the ground with his cane, and the whole person flew to the other side like a cannonball, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Yang Yiyi wanted to chase after him, but she couldn't. The speed was too fast. Unless Yang Yiyi left Wu Shaoyi and Qin Yan behind and used Yanbo Jiang Jue with all her strength, she would have no chance of catching up. It was simply too late.

Fortunately, Yang Yiyi didn't chase after her, because Li Chengxi had already put his hand on the button for the Saint to come.

The old man looks skinny, but in fact his attribute values ​​are almost catching up with Ning Xianer. Even if the two face off, it will be difficult to determine the winner in a short period of time.

Liu Heng cursed inwardly, saying that he was getting old, but his lightness skills were enough to make him look down upon 99% of the people in the Central Plains martial arts world.

Even though we are facing a powerful enemy now, the top leaders of the Sirius Cult are obviously up to some conspiracy. I paid Liu Heng because of my promise. Now that the money and goods have been paid, what? Do you still want me to provide you with after-sales service?
