CHAPTER 341: CHAPTER 194: CALCULATING IN SECRET_2

"Insignificant trick!"

Li Yunjing’s eyes opened, two beams of light flashed, and his large hand spread open. Radiant in five colors, the light formed a vibrant shield in his hand, encapsulating the five insects within.

The small, venomous insects wriggled within the multicolored shield, attempting to tear through the thin, water-like barrier, but to no avail.

The insects crawled faster, almost emitting screeching noises.

Yet, they were all contained within the shield, unable to make a sound beyond it.

This was none other than the "Five Elements Sealing Technique," which Li Yunjing had recently learned from the Five Elements Technique.

Even with rudimentary knowledge, capturing a few poisonous insects was a piece of cake for Li Yunjing.

"Clatter..."

The door opened and closed. The person outside barely had time to feel pleased before they sensed a chill. In the next instant, he felt a coldness in his chest, looking down to discover a transparent hole oozing with blood!

Before he could react, his body collapsed to the ground!

Li Yunjing extended a hand, preventing the man’s body from hitting the floor and making a sound that would awaken Yu Yunyi.

"Hmph! I don’t care where this person comes from, but anyone who harbors ill intentions against me shall die!"

Casually picking up the man’s belongings, Li Yunjing laid the body flat on the ground.

He then stood at the doorway, his divine sense sweeping all around.

Suddenly, Li Yunjing detected two suspicious figures outside the inn.

In the dead of night, instead of resting, they hid in a corner outside the inn, secretly observing it. Clearly, they were up to no good!

With his suspicion aroused, these two might as well have been inscribed on King Yama’s death ledger.

Li Yunjing was not part of the "Law Enforcement Hall", so he didn’t need to bother with evidence!

If I suspect you, you’re done for!

Silently, he left the inn. Once outside, there was no need for caution; a domineering, ferocious aura surged like a furious dragon emerging from the abyss, launching a deadly attack at one of them!

The chilling murderous intent left the two men, keeping watch at the corner, utterly terrified!

"Hmm?"

"What’s happening?"

They jumped in shock, seeing someone charging at them in the street.

"Did our companion fail?"

This thought surfaced in both their minds almost simultaneously.

Panicking, they exchanged glances and fled in different directions without a fight.

"Thinking of running? Too late!"

Li Yunjing activated the "Fire of the Three Yang," incinerating the five venomous insects within the radiant shield into ashes.

In the next moment, he caught up with one of them. Just as the man started to resist, Li Yunjing was faster, and with a swift motion, the "Jade Sea Listening Wave Sword" pierced through his heart!

Killing Qi Cultivation Realm cultivators was as easy as slaughtering chickens for Li Yunjing!

Almost a kill per sword strike!

"Spare me, Fellow Daoist!"

The other man, having fled ten zhang away, turned back to see his companion ruthlessly slain and couldn’t help but cry out for mercy.

Usually, all three acted together, boasting Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer prowess.

Even facing a cultivator at the Great Perfection of Qi Cultivation, they could hold their ground for a while.

Who could have thought that this ambush would not only fail but in an instant cost the lives of two.

Realizing they had encountered a formidable foe, the remaining man was terrified to his core.

"Of what use are you?!"

Li Yunjing seized the deceased’s storage bag and, in a flash, appeared behind the last one like a ghost.

"Slash..."

Before the man could utter a word, another flash of jade light, and his head flew off, still wearing an expression of incredulity.

Three Qi Cultivation Seventh Layer cultivators took less than six breaths for Li Yunjing to dispatch.

Gathering his spoils, Li Yunjing returned to the inn.

The first cultivator’s body was thrown outside the inn.

None of the three corpses were disposed of!

Li Yunjing aimed to send a warning to those behind the scenes: they better watch out!

Anger him, and none would be left alive!

In a place like the Sea Region, morals and laws were irrelevant; only strength and ruthlessness mattered!

Before venturing into cultivation, Li Yunjing spent three years in the martial world, living on the edge.

Coming here, he quickly adapted to the environment.

This chaotic place, in fact, excited Li Yunjing greatly!

"The cultivators here in the Sea Region are truly courting death!"

Returning inside, he saw Yu Yunyi was already awake, and Li Yunjing showed an apologetic look.

"Hehe! When the first person appeared outside the door, I was sound asleep and did not hear it, but I did hear you leaving,"

Yu Yunyi’s jade-white arm propped up her head as she smiled at Li Yunjing.

"Hmm! I intended for you to rest well! I didn’t expect some bugs to disturb your sleep."

Li Yunjing sat on the edge of the bed, gently pinching Yu Yunyi’s cheek, speaking softly.

"It’s nothing! After resting for several hours, I’m full of energy. Do you want to sleep for a while? I’ll keep watch for you!"

Yu Yunyi smiled, her eyes sparkling, appearing truly refreshed.

"Very well! I’ll lie down for about half an hour."

Seeing it was still early, Li Yunjing agreed after a moment’s thought.

It had been a long time since he last slept peacefully.

Although he didn’t feel tired now, the future held battles unknown in number waiting for him.
