Enjoying the fruits of others' labor! How does a sect's holy son break through the defense

Obsidian State Capital!

Prefect Tao Yong was furious.

bang~

With a single palm strike, he blasted the messenger into dust.

"Idiots! A bunch of idiots!"

"With so many people who can't even protect my son, what use are you to me?"

Then he waved his hand and roared.

"Immediately notify all nine cities of Heiyao Prefecture to give this government the full force to hunt down the murderer."

"We must capture him alive; I need to know who's behind this."

"If the murderer gets away, they will all be buried with my son, do you hear me?"

Because of Tao Ci's death.

This caused a huge upheaval throughout Obsidian State, with martial law declared and a manhunt launched across all nine cities.

It caused widespread panic.

Meanwhile, the Qi family members seized the opportunity amidst the chaos to break out of Black Owl City.

Qi Lian'er turned and glanced at Hei Zhaocheng, her eyes filled with tears of resentment.

"I will avenge this!"

Although they lacked skilled fighters, they still suffered considerable losses while fighting their way out of the city's defenses.

More than half of the hundreds of people were killed or injured, many of them hacked to death.

Qi Delong, who was seriously injured, was panting heavily.

"Fortunately, all the experts above the Spirit King realm went to hunt down that mysterious person, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to break out at all."

"Speaking of which, who exactly is this mysterious person, that he dared to kill Tao Ci? I wonder if he can escape Heiyao Prefecture."

Qi Lian'er turned around, wiped away her tears, and looked determined.

"No matter what, he is a great benefactor to my Qi family."

"If he hadn't killed Tao Ci at the crucial moment and disrupted the situation, our entire clan would have died at the hands of that beast."

At this moment, an elder asked with concern in his eyes.

"So what do we do next?"

"Once Tao Yong resolves the matter of that mysterious benefactor, he will certainly not let us go and will definitely make my entire Qi family pay the price with Tao Ci's life."

"Where can we all escape to?"

Fortunately, there is a space to lock the ring, so the property can be carried with you.

However, it wasn't so easy for these one or two hundred people to find a place to settle down.

The others were also confused.

"Yes! Tao Yong is extremely powerful as the governor of a prefecture. As long as we are within the territory of the Immortal Martial Empire, we will be caught no matter where we flee."

"But going to other countries is even more impossible. The information on the identity document cannot be faked, and other countries won't accept it."

Amidst widespread concern.

Qi Lian'er remained remarkably calm.

"To the capital!"

"What?"

Imperial City?

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that the Imperial City is the territory of the First Prince, and Tao Yong is one of the First Prince's men. Isn't he just walking into a trap?

Seeing everyone's surprise and doubt, Qi Lian'er explained.

"The most dangerous place is the safest place."

"It's not safe for us to go to any other state except the capital."

"Although the eldest prince wields great power, he cannot control everything. As long as the Martial Emperor is alive, he will always be a prince."

"We can seek refuge with the Third Princess."

Qi Delong's eyes were filled with worry.

"Lian'er is right, but we are weak and powerless, and I'm afraid we won't even catch the Third Princess's eye."

Qi Lian'er shook her head.

"That's not the case!"

"The Third Princess is currently in dire need of people; she will welcome anyone who sincerely pledges their allegiance."

"Moreover, by making Tao Yong our enemy, we are essentially standing against the First Prince. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, so the Third Princess will certainly not refuse us."

Actually, there was one more thing she didn't say.

That is, when she decided to perish together with Tao Ci, she seemed to awaken something.

It seemed as if some mysterious force was guiding her.

Going to the capital is the only way to survive.

The imperial city is the only chance for the Qi family to survive.

......

Imperial City!

Knock knock~

"Sister Yunshu? It's me!"

"Enter!"

Lu Tu pushed open the door and found Gu Yunshu sitting cross-legged on the bed.

"Sister Yunshu is working so hard!"

Gu Yunshu rolled her eyes at her, annoyed.

"Unlike you three prodigies who break through as easily as drinking water, if I don't work hard in my cultivation, I won't even be able to see your shadow in a few years."

"Besides, now that you've helped me improve my talent, I have to make the most of this hard-won opportunity."

Then she looked at Lü Tu with some curiosity.

"What's wrong?"

"Why aren't you spending all that time with Baiya? What are you doing contacting me so late?"

Lu Tu chuckled.

Are you jealous?

Gu Yunshu laughed and cursed.

"Pshaw~ Everyone's so serious, who's jealous?"

But she was actually a little uncomfortable inside.

Especially when I saw Changyu Baiya and Lü Tu sticking together, I felt inexplicably angry.

But her reason was...

She acted this way because of Luan Yang.

After all, Lü Tu had just gotten together with Luan Yang, and after leaving Yunshang Sect, he got together with Changyu Baiya.

It's understandable that she, as a mother, would be unhappy, right?

Unexpectedly, Lü Tu suddenly said something.

"Nothing else."

"I was just thinking that since I had nothing else to do, I might as well help you improve your talent a bit more."

Gu Yunshu's eyes immediately lit up.

"Improving talent, is that really true?"

With Lü Tu's permission, Luan Yang had already spoken to her about it.

First, it unblocks the meridians; second, it forges the bones; third, it creates the alloy patterns.

Lu Tu had only used the golden needle to open her meridians once before, and the improvement was already terrifying.

The Trimetallic Pattern can greatly enhance one's talent, and can increase explosive power in battle by hundreds of times.

She had been craving it for a long time.

Lu Tu chuckled.

Why would I lie to you?

"Take off your clothes!"
