Little Li's Way to Break the Deadlock!

In the darkness, murderous intent was laid bare.

A blade of light devoured all the light in its path, heading straight for Li Mo's throat.

Being trapped in darkness is like being stuck in a quagmire.

At this moment, Li Mo felt his body was incredibly heavy. If he were an ordinary Divine Observation Realm, he probably wouldn't be able to move even a finger.

However, with all four of his Profound Pill operating simultaneously, and the moonlight shining behind him, he had already regained his mobility.

However, he didn't dodge, because there was no need.

Clang--

The Money Tree grew rapidly, instantly illuminating the darkness.

The moment their vision returned, they saw the strangely shaped, jet-black longsword blocked by a Dragon-Tiger Pill Furnace. Its owner had been repelled by Elder Xue and Elder Qian, who were shouting at the same time:

"Kill him first!"

Peng Keshan did not come alone.

Men dressed in black swarmed in from the rooftops and outside the windows.

The Rosy Phoenix Qi was like a cold current condensed into mercury, causing a long sword formed from tea water to appear in Ying Bing's hand.

With the slightest movement, hundreds upon hundreds of sword intents and Sword Qi were unleashed, freezing several men in black into riddled ice sculptures.

"So many people have accepted the bounty?"

Li Mo swung his Crimson Firmament Sword, zigzagging through the opponent's opening, and then pierced through the man and the dagger together.

Sun Gui and his guards and servants also joined the battle.

As a result, the huge restaurant instantly descended into chaos.

But Li Mo never let his guard down.

Based on his experience...

The assassins of the Drizzle Pavilion are not suicide fighters; if they fail in one strike, they will flee and seek another opportunity, rather than fighting to the death with their target.

But these assassins from the Drizzle Pavilion showed no sign of leaving.

The thought had barely formed in his mind when...

Splash--

The floor suddenly shattered.

A chain flew in menacingly, as if it possessed a life of its own, like a raging dragon soaring into the sky, bringing with it a surging tide.

This was also an attack from the Inner Scene Realm.

However, the opponent's domain was compressed to its extreme.

It may not appear particularly imposing, but its destructive power is actually more concentrated; the annihilating aura of death can almost instantly freeze a person's mind.

Snap--

A sudden, delicate fist pierced the raging tide; it was Shang Wu, who had remained silent throughout.

In a single, precise motion, it grasped the chain, and then the pale golden flames surged back.

The moment the beautiful master made her move.

The battle was over.

The assassin who was hiding in the shadows to launch Inner Scene never expected that the woman in palace attire, who looked like a drunkard, would be so fierce.

The scene was somewhat brutal.

A few minutes later.

The restaurant's furnishings, doors, and windows were all damaged, leaving a mess everywhere.

The assassins from the Divine Observation Realm lay sprawled on the ground.

Of the assassins from the Drizzle Pavilion, only two of the Inner Scene assassins are still relatively resilient—meaning they haven't died yet.

"It was just a moment of carelessness. I didn't expect you to be so prepared, but..."

The one who Inner Scene the Life-Snatching Chain lay severely injured on the ground, still arrogantly glaring at the crowd surrounding him:

"We're just the beginning, hehehe... Don't waste your time, we won't say anything..."

"Oh, you're not going to tell me?"

Shang Wu, expressionless, punched his head into his chest.

Peng Keshan was silent for a moment, then forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, "Ask away, I'll tell you everything..."

Bang--

His head suddenly exploded.

Ask your mom.

Shang Wu sneered and kicked the dying Peng Keshan into the Fish-Dragon Lake outside.

The man did a triple somersault in the air, which was extremely inelegant and created a huge splash, like frying fish.

Little Li received a score of zero and was disqualified from the competition.

Hopefully, Peng will reflect on this mistake and not repeat it in his next life.

"Gulp..."

Sun Gui swallowed hard and stood at attention the instant the woman in palace attire turned her gaze towards him.

"I guarantee with the reputation of Hengtong Trading Firm and the trust of my ancestors for eighteen generations that this matter has absolutely nothing to do with me!"

"That box originally contained Profound Crystal..."

The two elders, Shang Wu, looked at Li Mo.

As is widely known.

Little Li people.

Li Mo sheathed the Crimson Firmament Sword and nodded, saying, "That's true."

This Manager Sun indeed harbored no hostility towards him, and there was no relevant information in his recent encounters.

After clarification.

Li Mo noticed that his beautiful master was not very happy.

Perhaps it's because... they can't make a single payment?

Fortunately, Manager Sun was quite sensible. He not only agreed to pay compensation for emotional distress, but also promised to do his best to assist Clear Abyss Sect.

He bears some responsibility for this.

Sun Gui went to Hengtong Trading Firm.

The restaurant fell silent again.

After tidying up the place a bit, everyone sat down at the intact table.

Although the storm had passed, Xue Jing still looked worried.

"If you're a thief for a thousand days, how can you guard against thieves for a thousand days?"

Qian Bufan nodded. "Bounty doesn't go, I won't have a single day of peace."

"It's not just about Bounty."

"I am now probably considered a traitor by the Drizzle Pavilion."

Li Mo spoke first.

Whoever succeeds will not only receive Bounty, but will also receive additional rewards from within the Drizzle Pavilion.

Therefore, even with the protection of the Inner Scene, there are still people who want to take the risk.

Xue Jing's face was ashen, and he sighed again:

"Traitors to the Drizzle Pavilion will face endless pursuit until they die."

"I've never heard of anyone ultimately being able to get rid of..."

"Some."

Ying Bing suddenly spoke.

Everyone looked at her.

She parted her lips slightly:

"Achieving the Seventh Realm is all that's needed."

Li Mo: "..."

That makes so much sense, I can't even refute it.

How many Seventh Realm experts are there in the whole world? Those who are called saints, if they do nothing but cause trouble for a certain force, even the Great Yu would have a headache.

"Who can survive to the Seventh Realm under the relentless pursuit of the Drizzle Pavilion?" Xue Jing smiled bitterly.

First of all, how many people can actually reach the Seventh Realm?

Not to mention the bounty on their heads and the pursuit they face.

Ying Bing's eyes flickered slightly as she looked at Li Mo.

She did it.

Little Li sensed an inexplicable trust from Ice Block...

"This is one method, but it takes a long time."

"Of course I'm not lacking confidence, it's just that assassins keep coming to our door, it's too troublesome."

"Actually, Drizzle Pavilion has a weakness, which can be exploited."

"I'm racking my brains," said Little Li seriously.

Everyone turned to look at him simultaneously.

Is there another way?

"Weakness? What is it?" Ying Bing asked softly.

Li Mo slammed his hand on the table, as if his mind had finally clicked:

"Greedy and solely driven by profit!"

"Huh? Is that what you call a weakness?"

Shang Wu sat up straight, her delicate eyebrows furrowing.

"This is certainly not a weakness for the average person."

Li Mo smiled modestly:

"But I happen to have some assets."

No one doubts this.

But Xue Jing stroked his beard, not understanding Li Mo's meaning:

"So what? That's Bounty from the Saintess. You can't exactly hire an assassin to kill Yin Mianmian."

"Besides, even if a person dies, the Bounty will still remain."

For example, Xu Yi killed both of his employers.

This is indeed something that Drizzle Pavilion would do.

"Elder Xue's thinking is still not clear. I have an idea."

Li Mo smiled:

"I'll go to the Black Pavilion and hire assassins from the Drizzle Pavilion to protect me, won't that solve the problem?"

Xue Jing was taken aback and leaned back slightly.

Is it possible to do this...?

Qian Bufan hesitated, "But don't they only take murder cases...?"

"Whoever kills me, they'll kill them. Isn't that murder?"

Li Mo thought there was nothing wrong with that.

If he wants to protect his own Bounty, he'll definitely be executed for a higher reward than if someone were to kill him.

If the former is so tempting, the latter is even more so.

At that time, everyone Drizzle Pavilion will live in fear, turning it into a dark forest.

No one knows which Bounty their comrade will receive, or even if they will end up killing each other.

In this way, not only was the threat from the Drizzle Pavilion eliminated, but it also plunged the building into internal strife.

That's killing two birds with one stone!

Little Li thought he was a fucking genius!

"Ah?"

Qian Bufan and Xue Jing were instantly struck by a sudden burst of inspiration and fell into deep thought.

The more they pondered, the brighter the light of wisdom shone in their eyes.

According to the rules of the Drizzle Pavilion...

What Li Mo said did not violate any of the rules at all!

It actually works!!?

No way, this works?!

It's been a long time since I've slept before 2 AM. I really need to recharge and get a good night's sleep to maintain good writing quality.

My sleep quality has been terrible lately. Last night I dreamt that I got up and played on the computer, and no matter what game I opened, I would always click into the comments section, which was full of viewers urging me to update...

That's terrifying.

I'll go to bed early tonight and try to update earlier tomorrow.

Please send some electricity, mwah~
