Dui Qimeng's face lit up with joy. She reached out to receive it and bowed respectfully. "Thank you, Senior Brother Li!"
"Hehe, Senior Brother Li is generous!" Xiao Hua smiled when he saw Li Zongbao looking at him. "What happened so quickly?
Why don't you wait until I send you guys to the Thunder Ship? "
"It's urgent!
You don't have to send us off! "
Li Zongbao said faintly. "I've received news that that guy is near Flowing Ice Valley. You and I should hurry over!"
"Senior Brother Li, that's not necessary!" Xiao Hua felt a little bored. "Why don't you follow me to Sky Patrol City?
After we send Junior Brother Cui and the others off, we can set off immediately. "
"No!" Li Zongbao's face darkened and he did not agree.
Xiao Hua frowned, but his heart was moved. He knew that Li Zongbao wasn't such an unreasonable person. There must be some reason for his actions, so he didn't delay and said to Cui Hongshen and the others, "Since that's the case, this Xiao won't send you off. Return to Sky Thunder Peak and cultivate well. After the battle, this Xiao will return to Sky Thunder Peak to look for you!"
"Yes, Senior Brother Li. We have our own arrangements!" Cui Hongshen was even more mindful of the Seven Skills Sect. He quickly bowed and said, "Senior Brother Li, hurry and follow Senior Brother Li!"
"Alright ~" Xiao Hua cupped his hands and beckoned. "Senior Brother Li, let's go …"
Unfortunately, just as he led Li Zongbao and Xiao Mao away, dozens of Sky Patrol City's disciples and a few Seven Skills Sect's disciples rushed over from the entrance of the Imperial Thunder Sect's encampment. In front of them was a patrolling disciple from the Imperial Thunder Sect who was leading the way with an unhappy expression.
"That's the guy. He's Xiao Hua!"
Li Zongbao's white hair and red Taoist robe were really eye-catching. The Seven Skills Sect's disciple had just flown over when his gaze landed on Xiao Hua's face.
Following the disciple's shout, the dozens of Sky Patrol City's disciples immediately surrounded Xiao Hua and the others.
"It's too late!"
Li Zongbao's expression changed slightly. He clapped his hand and took out the Conference Hall token. He said coldly, "I have the Conference Hall token. Who dares to stop me?"
"Aiyo, Senior Li!"
The Seven Possibilities Sect disciple hurriedly cupped his fists and said, "This disciple didn't know that Senior Martial Brother Li was here. This disciple apologizes to Senior Martial Brother Li!"
The other Seven Skills Sect disciples also hurriedly bowed in greeting.
Although Li Zongbao wanted to get away, he was not Zhang Qingxiao or Qian Diheng. He was not the arrogant and domineering type. Seeing the Seven Skills Sect's disciples' respectful attitude, he could only frown and ask, "What is the matter?
I'm about to bring my two junior brothers to Flowing Ice Valley to kill Qin Jian. How dare you block my battle achievements? "
"Senior Brother Li, don't be angry!"
That Seven Skills Sect disciple hastily smiled apologetically, "This disciple absolutely does not dare to obstruct Senior Martial Brother Li's battle achievements. This disciple is only following orders from the Assembly Hall to invite Junior Martial Brother Xiao Hua to the Assembly Hall. It's fine as long as Junior Martial Brother Xiao goes, Senior Martial Brother Li doesn't need to go!"
"Of course! Junior Brother Xiao is my good friend, and we are used to working together. He is the one who can kill Qin Jian. Without Junior Brother Xiao, wouldn't I be sending myself to my death?" Li Zongbao waved his hand and said, "Don't stand in the way!"
"This …" The Seven Skills Sect disciple did not expect Li Zongbao to be here and was somewhat at a loss.
"Move aside …" Li Zongbao glanced at the surrounding Sky Patrol City disciples and said coldly, "Don't force me to take out my Immortal Piercing Whip!"
"Senior Martial Brother Li ~" The Sky Patrol City disciples who blocked Li Zongbao's path also cried out miserably, "Please don't make things difficult for this lowly one. This lowly one was sent to invite Junior Martial Brother Xiao. I know nothing else!"
"Are you going to move aside or not?" Li Zongbao did not say much and asked coldly.
Xiao Hua, who was watching from the side, felt strange. He did not understand why Li Zongbao was making such a big fuss. Hence, he whispered, "Senior Martial Brother Li, isn't it just going to the Assembly Hall? Is there a need for this?"
"You dare to go to the Assembly Hall?" Li Zongbao looked at him from head to toe and was also puzzled.
"Why wouldn't I dare to go?" Xiao Hua glanced at the Seven Skills Sect disciple. "At most, the Seven Skills Sect will ask for the Flowing Cloud Flying Ship!
However, it's only been a few days and they're already back? "
At this moment, Xiao Mao cupped his hands and said, "Senior Martial Brother, I wonder why Senior Martial Brother wants to go to the Assembly Hall?
If you can explain it clearly, perhaps it will be easier! "
The Seven Skills Sect disciples looked at each other bitterly and whispered, "What else can it be?
Of course it's that thing! "
"Are you going to the Assembly Hall?" Li Zongbao asked again.
"Go!" Xiao Hua waved his hand. "This matter will come sooner or later. I didn't expect it to come so soon!"
"You … There are many things you didn't expect!" Li Zongbao said with a double meaning.
"Senior Martial Brother Li, what … do you mean?" Xiao Hua was stunned.
Li Zongbao did not say much. He just waved his hand and said indifferently, "If you want to go, then go!"
The Imperial Thunder Sect disciples had long been curious. Many of them were even watching from the side. Cui Hongshen and the others were even more anxious. Xiao Hua glanced at them and said with a smile, "Junior Martial Brother, you can go by yourself. It's no big deal. At worst, you can just return the Flowing Cloud Flying Ship to them!"
Cui Hongshen knew that Xiao Hua was stingy and was afraid that he would not return it. Now that he heard Xiao Hua agree, he was relieved and said, "Senior Martial Brother Xiao, although the Flowing Cloud Flying Ship is a good thing, it doesn't belong to our Imperial Thunder Sect. You can enjoy it in your hands, but it's also troublesome. Why don't you return it to them? When I have time, I'll see if there are any other flying magic tools.
Senior Martial Brother obtained a lot of flying swords from the battlefield. I should be able to exchange them for one! "
"En, I know. You can go without worry!"
Xiao Hua waved his hand and flew up. Li Zongbao and Xiao Mao followed closely and headed out of the encampment. The Seven Skills Sect disciples and dozens of Sky Patrol City disciples did not dare to be negligent. They surrounded the encampment as if to protect and restrain them.
Behind them, many disciples of the Imperial Thunder Sect were left wondering and whispering.
The meeting hall of the Yan Xi Residence was still the same as before. The only difference was that the praying mat Tu Hong was sitting on was now empty.
However, looking at the expressions of the Dao Sect cultivators, none of them were abnormal. It was as if the praying mat being empty was normal. It was something they were used to. If it was not empty, they would not be used to it.
Xiao Hua followed the Seven Possibilities Sect disciple into the Conference Hall. When he saw the Golden Core cultivator wearing a navy blue Daoist robe sitting at the head of the table, his heart skipped a beat. Not good, the person on duty today was actually Seven Possibilities Sect's Wang Ye!
"Junior Martial Brother Xiao Hua of the Imperial Thunder Sect greets Martial Uncle Wang!" The Seven Skills Sect disciples bowed and said.
"En ~" Wang Ye saw Li Zongbao and Xiao Mao appear behind Xiao Hua and frowned. He waved his hand and said, "You can leave now!"
"Yes!"
After the Seven Skills Sect disciples left, Wang Ye looked at Li Zongbao and said, "Martial Nephew Li Zongbao, why are you here?"
"No reason!"
Li Zongbao bowed and said, "I was about to bring Junior Martial Brother Xiao to Flowing Ice Valley when I was surrounded by dozens of Sky Patrol City guards and several disciples of your sect!
We thought it was a sword cultivator in disguise and almost attacked!
If Junior Martial Brother Xiao did not stop us … "
"What?
Zongbao, did someone attack us in Sky Patrol City? "Heng Zhao immediately said coldly," Which disciple is so bold? "
"Hmph, they wanted to attack us!"
Li Zongbao also said coldly, "Now that the Sky Patrol City is in a state of panic, everyone is under attack. I also received the news and wanted to kill Qin Jian to avenge Senior Tu Hong, but someone was blind enough to block my path!"
Wang Ye originally wanted Li Zongbao and Xiao Mao to leave first, but after hearing Li Zongbao's words, he was a little embarrassed and angry. He had no reason to let them leave. If he forcefully sent them out, it would make him look guilty.
"Li Zongbao ~" Wang Ye also stopped being amiable and said faintly, "My Seven Skills Sect's disciples worked together with the Sky Patrol City's city guards to invite Imperial Thunder Sect's Xiao Hua to the Conference Hall for questioning. There were many people, so we were worried that something might happen in the Sky Patrol City and Xiao Hua's life might be in danger. That's why we sent many people.
You've misunderstood the good intentions of the meeting hall! "
"En, I understand!"
Li Zongbao nodded, "They didn't attack us, but I don't understand. Why can't they wait until we return from Flowing Ice Valley?
Qin Jian is near Flowing Ice Valley now, if … "
"Li Zongbao …" Wang Ye said lightly, "Qin Jian is not in Flowing Ice Valley now, it's useless even if you go!"
"That's strange, how does Martial Uncle Wang know that Qin Jian is not in Flowing Ice Valley?
Did he go back to Sky Patrol City? "
Li Zongbao's behavior today was a little overboard. He actually questioned a Golden Core master in front of everyone, and his words were vaguely sarcastic.
Wang Ye was a little embarrassed and angry. He glared at Li Zongbao and said, "Li Zongbao, this is the meeting hall of Yanxi Prefecture. You don't have the right to question my meeting hall!"
"Cough cough ~ Zongbao, hurry up and apologize to Martial Uncle Wang Ye!" Heng Zhao coughed and scolded.
"Yes, I know my mistake!
I didn't know that Martial Uncle Wang Ye could confirm Qin Jian's whereabouts. I've learned my lesson! "Li Zongbao bowed and said.
"Hahaha ~" The Golden Core cultivators of Lian Country laughed.
"Li Zongbao … If you say another word, I'll exercise my right to be on duty!" Wang Ye was embarrassed and angry. He pointed his finger and said.
Sure enough, Li Zongbao straightened his back and stood straight. He didn't say a word, not even a word to admit defeat.
Although the Golden Core cultivators of Lian Country didn't laugh, they couldn't help but laugh.
"Xiao Hua … Do you know why the meeting hall called you here?"
Wang Ye turned his head and said coldly to Xiao Hua. He couldn't do anything to Li Zongbao, but it was no problem to deal with Xiao Hua.
"This … How can I know?"
Xiao Hua said blankly, "But the meeting hall is where the masters are in charge, not where the experts are. I have nothing to be afraid of!"
"Pfft!"
The others didn't say anything, but Heng Jue couldn't help but laugh out loud. He knew very well what Wang Ye was planning, and Xiao Hua obviously knew what was going on. He even compared the Conference Hall with a strong person in front of everyone. It was even worse than Li Zongbao's words just now. He now somewhat understood why his precious disciple was so protective of Xiao Hua.
