Chapter 219 Something's Happening
However, the middle-aged man had only taken one step when he suddenly found himself trapped in place by his acupoints, unable to move at all.

"What...is going on?"

The middle-aged man's eyes showed horror. As far as he could see, apart from Li Musheng in front of him, he did not see anyone else making a move.

At that moment, Li Musheng's voice rang in the middle-aged man's ears:

"Are you a member of the Tianjin Guard of Dali?"

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man looked at Li Musheng. At this moment, Zheng Zi and Yuwen Feng, seeing him suddenly stand still, both showed strange expressions and hurriedly asked in deep voices:
"Mr. Miao, what's wrong with you?"

The middle-aged man did not reply. At this moment, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. The person who made the move was able to seal his acupoints silently, so the opponent's martial arts strength must be far superior to his own. Right now, he could do nothing but wait for death.

Thinking of this, the middle-aged man looked at Li Musheng in front of him and said:

"I am the Vice Commander of the Tianjin Guard of Lanzhou. This place is the territory of Luoshen Peak. I advise you not to act recklessly, otherwise even if you have a master protecting you, you will not be able to escape the pursuit of Luoshen Peak."

Li Musheng shook his head and said:
“As a member of the Dali Dynasty, you colluded with Luoshen Peak during the great war. Since we’ve run into you, you can’t blame me.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man's eyes, which had been open, suddenly lost their focus, and his life force vanished almost instantly.

At this moment, Zheng Zi and Yuwen Feng behind them were horrified, because they clearly saw that Miao Qianshi's head had a bloody hole running through it from front to back.

The next moment, almost without hesitation, Yuwen Feng and Zheng Zi simultaneously activated their martial arts true energy and immediately fled out of the hall.

However, just as they were about to make a move, they discovered that all their acupoints had been sealed, and they were completely unable to move.

At that moment, Li Musheng's voice rang in Zheng Zi's ear:

"You still have not answered my question."

Yuwen Feng and Zheng Zi both stared in terror at Li Musheng, who was casually leaning back in his chair.

"Who...are you?"

Zheng Zi's voice trembled slightly. The middle-aged man with the strongest martial arts skills had been killed. Not only had they not seen who made the move, but their own acupoints were now sealed, and their lives were in the hands of the other party.

Zheng Zi and the other man now regretted their arrogance, which had allowed the two elders to leave at the same time, leading to their current predicament.

But they also knew in their hearts that the most important thing now was to buy time. As long as the two elders returned, they would surely be able to escape the danger they were in.

“No matter who you are, you should know the status of Luo Shen Feng in the martial arts world. If you kill us, our father will definitely not let you off.”

"On the contrary, if you can let us go, then I can pretend that nothing happened tonight."

Suppressing his fear, Zheng Zi looked at Li Musheng and spoke, attempting to buy time.

Yuwen Feng, standing behind, quickly echoed:
“My father is Yuwen Chengqing, the peak master of the ninth peak of Fallen God Peak. I can guarantee that as long as you do not touch us, you will leave Hundred Refinement City unharmed.”

"Moreover, we may become friends after a fight. I see that you are a man of great talent and appearance. Perhaps we can become close friends."

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng almost burst out laughing at Yuwen Feng's words, realizing that even he probably didn't believe what the other man was saying.

However, Li Musheng knew that the other party wanted to stall for time, but he didn't care.

At this moment, the scarred man, who had been standing still the whole time, had seen everything that had just happened.

Although he dared not move, his face was constantly shifting between various complex expressions. Ever since Zheng Zi attacked Li Musheng, he thought he would soon follow in Li Musheng's footsteps and suffer the same despair.

Then, seeing Li Musheng completely unharmed, and then witnessing the powerful middle-aged man being instantly killed, she was filled with disbelief and utter shock.

Seeing Zheng Zi and the other man standing motionless, and their attitude of being arrogant before but obsequious towards Li Musheng, he immediately realized that the balance of power had shifted!
Suddenly, the scarred man relaxed completely, finally moving his stiff neck, and then looked at Li Musheng with a smirk:

"Young master, you have such skills. Why didn't you say so earlier? You made me live in fear."

As he spoke, the scarred man glanced at Zheng Zi and the other man in the hall, but suddenly his smile vanished, and he lowered his voice:
"We can't trust the people of Fallen God Peak. Our best course of action is to escape Hundred Refinement City before those two old geezers return. Of course, to be on the safe side, we can take those two as hostages."

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng glanced at the other person.

This guy has an unusually high tolerance for stress. He was scared out of his wits just now, but now he can seriously analyze the escape route.

However, Li Musheng waved his hand and said:

"You can go on your own. I have other things to do and need to stay."

Previously, Li Musheng followed the Xishan Knife Sect group to save time on the journey.

But now that he has arrived at Hundred Refinement City and is not far from Hundred Refinement Peak, he naturally has no need for the other party.

Moreover, with Zheng Zi and Yuwen Feng by his side, he was too lazy to travel any further and was simply waiting for the experts from Hundred Refinement Peak to arrive, which was obviously much more convenient.

Upon hearing this, the scarred man's expression changed drastically. He didn't know why Li Musheng wanted to stay.
However, he knew that if he didn't leave now, the situation would likely become even more unpredictable once the two powerful elders of Luoshen Peak returned.

Thinking of this, the scarred man immediately cupped his hands in greeting and said:

"Take care, young master."

Having said that, he prepared to leave immediately, but as soon as he turned around, his gaze swept over Zheng Zi and Yuwen Feng, and then, gritting his teeth, he turned back and said:
"Young master, could you spare one of the hostages for me?"

"I have a hostage in my hands. If I encounter the people from Luoshen Peak, I will definitely make them hesitate to act. Even if I am driven to a dead end in the end, I can still take one person with me before I die, so it won't be a loss!"

Li Musheng's eyelids twitched slightly, but he directly refused, saying:

"Both of me are useful."

Upon hearing this, the scarred man had no choice but to sigh regretfully and then picked up his bag of gold from the ground.

Finally, without further ado, it leaped out of the hall window and fled for its life.

For a moment, only Zheng Zi and his companion remained in the hall on the third floor, along with a group of courtesans who were too terrified to make a sound or move.

Li Musheng then looked at Zheng Zi and the other man, and asked again:

Are you sure your father would come to this Hundred Fragrances Pavilion for you?

At this moment, Zheng Zi and Yuwen Feng did not understand Li Musheng's intentions, but their most important task was to survive, so they immediately said:
“We are both our father’s most beloved sons. No matter what your conditions are, as long as you don’t kill us, they will agree.”

Upon hearing this, Li Musheng nodded and said:
"Then I'll trust you this once."

As soon as he finished speaking, two invisible streams of true energy pierced directly through Zheng Zi and Yuwen Feng's heads.
