If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 218: Protect me with a human wall!

Li Yanmo was not in a hurry to travel. Instead, he sat backwards on the back of the rented black horse and traveled slowly while reading the information sent by Feng Shouyun before leaving.

The contradiction between the noble marquises and the commoner marquises is getting bigger and bigger. There is only a cold war between the marquises, but the conflict between the princes has become so serious that they openly fight with each other in public, and the conflict has even spread to the harem.

However, based on Li Yanmo's understanding of the Dayu Dynasty's style of doing things, the ones who will suffer will definitely be the noble princes who have the best cultivation resources.

After looking through the intelligence, it was true. In just a few days, several princes had lost three treasures that could speed up their cultivation.

The one who won the treasure was the son of a commoner marquis.

This commoner marquis was extraordinary. He was granted the title of Marquis of Eight Desolations and was ordered to guard the Eight Desolations and resist the wild monsters therein.

His military exploits were so remarkable that he deserved to be promoted to the rank of noble marquis, but for some reason, no such promotion was made. During these eight years, Emperor Yu once issued an order to recall Marquis Bahuang, but Marquis Bahuang refused, arguing that he was away from home and could not obey the emperor's orders.

Legend has it that Marquis Bahuang had already reached the stage of transcending tribulation, and even Emperor Yu felt that he was a threat.

But Li Yanmo thought that this might be a rumor made up by someone.

Although Li Yanmo was in a daze when the train was delayed, he still felt something. Based on the subsequent information and Ji Lao's complaints, Li Yanmo already had a general idea.

There are roughly two types of cultivators in this world.

This generation of Emperor Yu and other cultivators.

Even if the immortals are included, there is still Emperor Yu and other cultivators.

He ruled for two hundred years, and including his achievements as a prince, only the first Emperor Yu who founded the Dayu Dynasty could be compared with this Emperor Yu.

So why did Emperor Yu feel that a person in the Tribulation Crossing Stage could pose a threat to him?

However, Emperor Yu seems to be in an unpleasant condition now, and Li Yanmo is not sure what to do.

Li Yanmo's destination this time is Baidi City, located in Dizhou, at the feet of the emperor.

Regardless of whether they were noble marquises or commoner marquises, their families were placed in Baidi City as [hostages].

Emperor Yu also issued a decree that all princes were not allowed to practice cultivation before the age of sixteen and had to study in school.

Li Yanmo had never considered what identity he should use to enter Baidi City, but after thinking about it, he felt it was too troublesome.

Not to mention that Emperor Yu has great means, he, the owner of Tianxu Tower, is no nobody, and it is a bit like taking off his pants to fart for him to get a fake identity and sneak into Baidi City.

So Li Yanmo decided to throw the problem to Leng Ningshuang.

It would take several months to travel from Qianzhou to Baidi City even by the fastest flying boat of Tiexin Chamber of Commerce, so Li Yanmo arrived at Xiyang City first.

Leng Ningshuang didn't say how to connect specifically, just said to go in the direction of the lively place.

Li Yanmo didn't think much about it. After returning the horse to the horse farm in Sunset City, he walked leisurely on the street.

I don’t know why, but there are so many people in Sunset City today, and many of them look very happy.

Out of curiosity, Li Yanmo pulled someone over and said, "Hey, young man, what day is it today? Why is it so lively?"

"Huh? You don't know, a young lady has traveled thousands of miles to Sunset City to choose a husband!"

The man rubbed his hands excitedly, as if he would be the lucky one.

Li Yanmo's mood suddenly became strange.

This is probably what Leng Ningshuang means by lively.

After a moment's hesitation, Li Yanmo followed the crowd and soon arrived at the bustling scene of the ball-throwing event. Atop a tall building, a woman paced back and forth. She bent her slender waist and took delicate steps, her fair wrists glittering beneath a light veil. Her eyes were filled with the clear, flowing beauty of spring water, and a jade dragon and phoenix hairpin adorned her hair. Her delicate, fragrant face was more beautiful than a flower, her fingers like scallion roots, her mouth brimming with crimson. Her every frown and smile captivated the heart.

This is undoubtedly a beautiful woman, but all Li Yanmo sees every day is Jian Xin, so he has a very high resistance to beauty. Li Yanmo only cares about two things.

This woman is not Leng Ningshuang.

Although I have never seen Leng Ningshuang wearing palace clothes, she is older than the woman in front of me, and her cultivation level is also higher.

This seemingly weak woman is a Jindan cultivator.

But this throwing of the ball of embroidery is indeed very lively. Could it be that Leng Ningshuang intends to use this throwing of the ball of embroidery to make a secret move and contact them in secret?
Li Yanmo immediately leaned forward to look for Leng Ningshuang who might attack in men's clothing, but he did not notice that the beautiful woman in palace dress on the high tower had looked over. A cunning flashed in her eyes, and she took the embroidered ball from the maid's hand.

Seeing that the beautiful woman in palace dress was about to throw the bouquet, everyone present cheered and chased after it. Li Yanmo was squeezed several times before he came to his senses. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the tower. He happened to meet the eyes of the beautiful woman in palace dress and noticed the cunning in her eyes.

Li Yanmo could be sure that he did not know the other person, but the other person knew him.

I'm afraid he has bad intentions.

Li Yanmo immediately shrank back and moved outward little by little.

The beautiful woman in palace dress was stunned at first, then she gritted her teeth in dissatisfaction, picked up the hydrangea and threw it towards Li Yanmo. The hydrangea was flying at an extremely fast speed, like a cannonball, but incredibly, it did not generate any wind pressure.

Li Yanmo's mouth twitched, and he jumped, but the hydrangea immediately changed direction and flew straight in his direction. The people present were also dumbfounded by this. Most of them were mortals from Sunset City. With the hydrangea's change of direction, they almost guessed that the harmless palace-dressed beauty atop the tower was a cultivator.

“I was just passing by!!!”

Seeing that the other party was not giving in, Li Yanmo had no choice but to shout.

"That's fate!" The maids around the beautiful lady in palace dress shouted in unison.

Li Yanmo originally wanted to shout, "I have a family," but the hydrangea suddenly accelerated and flew straight towards Li Yanmo's face.

As a last resort, Li Yanmo could only use the forbidden defense. He stretched out his hand and lifted up a person to block in front of him.

The man was a little panicked at first, but when he saw the hydrangea flying towards him, his eyes suddenly lit up, he opened his arms and shouted, "Come at me!"

The beauty in palace dress's eyes twitched, and the embroidered ball immediately flew behind her.

Li Yanmo took advantage of this opportunity to land and shouted, "Everyone, protect me with a human wall!"

The people around were still a little confused at first, but when they saw that the hydrangea was still staring at Li Yanmo, they immediately understood what Li Yanmo meant. They gathered together like warriors who were willing to sacrifice their lives for justice, forming a human wall with no blind spots.

The maids around the beautiful lady in palace dress also fell silent.

Someone whispered, "Princess, what should we do? It seems Li Yanmo has escaped using the escape technique."

The beautiful lady in palace dress glanced at the maid unhappily, "What do you mean by escaping? Am I some kind of monster?"

"This……"

The beautiful lady in palace dress raised her hand and the hydrangea spun twice before flying back.

Li Yanmo, who had finally escaped, was grabbed by the wrist by someone and pulled into an alley.

"Brother Li, why are you here?!"

Looking at Leng Ningshuang, who was wearing linen clothes, a turban on his head, and holding a sledgehammer in his hand, Li Yanmo felt an unprecedented sense of security.
