Sword Qi to the Sky

Chapter 12 Li Hongyi

Li Hongyi had heard from his father that the current emperor of the Dali Dynasty was a man of great talent and strategy and would not allow the clans and families to override the imperial power.

Over the years, the imperial court has become increasingly powerful, and the Demon-Slaying Bureau and the Demon-Suppressing Army are not only designed to deal with demons, but also to target various sects in the world of Dali.

In this incident, Li Hongyi of course realized that Li Fan was being pushed out as a scapegoat. Li Fan was wanted by the court, and it was all caused by the Chen family.

"Miss Li, you mean us?" Li Fan asked.

"Yes, and there is also that father and daughter." Li Hongyi nodded.

"What are their crimes?" Li Fan frowned.

Li Hongyi couldn't answer this question.

She also despised the Chen family's behavior.

Chen Yuan was afraid of Li Fan's background, so he asked Chen Zong to issue a wanted order and use the court to deal with Li Fan.

"Miss Li, can I borrow your horse?" Li Fan asked.

Li Hongyi looked up at Li Fan and then nodded.

Li Fan jumped down from the window and pulled over Li Hongyi's black horse. There was a neigh and the sound of urgent horse hooves.

Li Hongyi was stunned for a moment when he saw this scene, and then he also jumped out of the window and ran away.

"Girl, you haven't paid yet." The waiter of the inn shouted at the window.

"It's Li Hongyi."

"Who is that man?" Some people in the inn were discussing. They looked outside and saw the man riding a horse in the distance, and the horse's owner, Li Hongyi, was galloping behind him. This made many people look strange.

Is that really Li Hongyi, the darling of Lin'an County?
Li Fan rode his horse through Lin'an County and came to the west gate of Lin'an County, where Yang Kui and Ah Qi would leave the city.

The exit from the city was guarded by someone, with pedestrians passing by and horses neighing. Li Fan stopped directly at the city gate and looked forward. Sure enough, he saw the Chen family's constables appearing here. They naturally also saw Li Fan on horseback, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in their eyes, but they did not dare to move.

Li Fan dared to kill people in public in the Chen family. He was extremely bold. These disciples of the cultivation sect relied on their own strength and did not take the laws of the court seriously. They did not doubt that Li Fan dared to touch them.

So even though a wanted warrant was issued, they didn't dare to actually capture Li Fan. They were only responsible for watching him.

Li Fan sat on his horse and stared at them. The detectives did not dare to look him in the eye.

At this time, Li Hongyi came running and stopped beside Li Fan. She looked at Li Fan with a complicated look. This guy actually let her run with him all the way?
The horse Li Fan was riding was hers!
"Miss Li." The detectives bowed to Li Hongyi when they saw her. Unlike Li Fan, Li Hongyi was the daughter of Li Daoqing, who was known as the best martial artist in Lin'an County. Even the county magistrate had to be polite when seeing Li Daoqing.

"Where are they?" Li Fan looked at the constable and asked.

"You are now a wanted man by the court. Please dismount and follow us back to be questioned." said one of the detectives.

Li Fan raised his eyebrows, and a powerful aura emanated from his body. The constable's expression changed slightly, and he clenched his long knife tightly in his hand, as if he was facing a great enemy. He looked embarrassed and said to Li Fan: "If you attack the imperial constable, you will be openly defying the imperial court."

As he spoke, there was a murderous aura about him and sweat was oozing out of his hand holding the knife. Not long ago at the Chen family, he had witnessed with his own eyes the cold-blooded killing methods of this handsome young man in front of him.

Li Hongyi walked forward, looked at the constable and asked, "Have you seen the father and daughter?"

She was worried that the situation would continue to escalate. Li Fan had killed two warriors in the Chen family, which could be a big deal or a small one.

The imperial court usually turned a blind eye to the fighting among the underworld people, but the Chen family and Chen Zongzhi deliberately did bad things, so they issued a wanted order for Li Fan and others.

But if the Lin'an County constable was killed openly on the street, the matter would be even more serious.

When the constable saw Li Hongyi asking questions, he also found a way to step down and shook his head, saying, "I didn't see it."

"Not leaving the county?" Li Hongyi asked.

The other party nodded.

Li Fan knew the speed of the white horse. If everything was normal, Yang Kui and Ah Qi should have left the city, unless they saw the constable blocking him.

In this case, the two may still be in Lin'an County.

"Tell Chen Zongzhi that if you dare to take the father and daughter, I will take his life." Li Fan pulled the reins, and the black horse's front hooves suddenly rose, making a neighing sound, then it suddenly stepped down, turned around and walked back.

Li Hongyi glanced at the constable and then followed Li Fan.

Looking at Li Fan's back, the constable's hand holding the knife was shaking, and veins were exposed. These practitioners are simply lawless!
But they were also a little scared. Li Fan was young and talented. People like him were young and frivolous, and they were the most ruthless in doing things, often without considering the consequences.

Many of the ordinary people who commit crimes in the county are strong young men.

Li Fan rode on his horse, his eyes showing a thoughtful look, he should have given Yang Kui a ride earlier. But since he was not captured by the brigade, he felt relieved.

"Hey..." A voice interrupted Li Fan's thoughts. He turned around and looked at Li Hongyi who was walking under the horse. Sweat was dripping on that delicate face, and her eyes like the bright moon were looking at him quietly.

She followed him all the way, and this guy didn't say a word and even rode on her horse!
So she keeps running?
Li Fan reacted, dismounted, took the reins and handed them to Li Hongyi, saying, "Thank you, Miss Li."

Li Hongyi took the reins and saw Li Fan walking forward. He couldn't help but look strange. He was leaving now?

All the men she met in the past wanted to stay by her side.

Li Fan, on the other hand, let her run all the way, and then just patted her butt and left?

She rode on the horse, looked at Li Fan's back with curious eyes, hesitated for a moment and followed him, and asked softly: "Where are you going?"

"Looking for someone." Li Fan replied, "Miss Li, you go back first."

Li Hongyi: “…”

Is she so annoying?
Li Hongyi looked at Li Fan's profile, which was as handsome as a sculpture, and she was actually fascinated by it.

He seems younger than me, right?

"Would it be faster if we ride a horse?" Li Hongyi whispered as if possessed by some unknown force.

After saying this, she felt a little regretful. How could she ride the only horse?
Could it be that Li Fan was riding on her back?
Wouldn’t that be bad?
"Ah?" Li Fan was also stunned when he heard Li Hongyi's words. He looked up at the other party. Seeing Li Fan looking at him, Li Hongyi felt his cheeks getting hot and he became unusually nervous inside.

People who practice cultivation should have a calm mind, what happened to her?
Li Hongyi pretended to be calm and peaceful.

"Wouldn't it be a bad idea to let Miss Li continue running?" Li Fan said.

Li Hongyi: “????”

She keeps running? ?
"drive!"

Li Hongyi squeezed her legs against the horse's belly, and the black horse galloped forward, passing by Li Fan with a sullen face, not looking at him.

"Why are you angry?" Li Fan thought to himself as he looked at Li Hongyi's back.

into the night.

Lin'an City under the night sky and Lin'an City during the day are like two different places, so deserted that it is a little scary.

Even the number of people practicing martial arts has decreased a lot, and those who still dare to walk outside are mostly practitioners who are confident in their own abilities.

Li Fan still hasn't found Yang Kui and his daughter. Although Lin'an County is not big, it is not easy to find two people.

Li Hongyi did not really leave. She felt a little unwilling to leave during the day, so she still followed Li Fan after returning, but ignored him.

The sound of horse hooves was particularly clear in the silent night. Li Hongyi followed Li Fan and couldn't help asking, "How long will you find it like this?"

"Until I find it." Li Fan replied.

"Have you known each other before?" Li Hongyi asked.

Li Fan shook his head.

"Last night at Chen's house, why didn't you save those martial artists, and why did you have to save that father and daughter?" Li Hongyi was a little curious, as she couldn't see Li Fan clearly.

"If you want to save her, then save her. If you don't want to save her, then don't save her. Why is that?" Li Fan looked at Li Hongyi strangely. His senior sister had taught him a lesson when they were young: don't let anyone kidnap you to do anything, including herself.

Unless you are willing to do it.

Since he knew that Yang Kui and Ah Qi were in trouble, he naturally couldn't just sit there and do nothing.

I always feel uncomfortable when I have something on my mind!
Li Fan's words left Li Hongyi stunned. She had never heard such a casual answer before.

"Miss Li, why are you following me?" Li Fan asked.

Li Hongyi was stunned, then turned her eyes away from Li Fan. She puffed out her chest while riding on the horse, and her voice was soft but a little arrogant.

"I'll follow if I want!"

Li Fan: “…”

　morning!
