"You are lucky this time!"
The man in black robe snorted coldly, then retreated violently, quickly distanced himself from Li Yu, and flew away. As for the companion who was chasing Yang Qi, Yang Qi was secretly protected by a cultivator at the third level of the peak of the Martial Emperor, so the fate of that companion was predictable.
However, the man in black robe was not worried that the other party would expose the cultivation power behind them. Not to mention the cultivator at the first level of the peak of Martial Emperor, even the man in black robe himself, when he was responsible for robbing and killing other evil cultivators, had made an oath to God and would not reveal the cultivation power behind them at all.
Phew~
Looking at the black-robed man leaving, the embarrassed Li Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Although he could temporarily deal with the third-level peak martial emperor cultivator by relying on some inheritance left by his ancestors and his own impressive strength, he was almost at the end of his strength after fighting for so long. If it weren't for the arrival of the third-level peak martial emperor, he would probably die here soon!
"Is it Xu Xing's master?" Li Yu obviously didn't know Wang Qi. When he found that Yang Qi and Wang Qi came together, the first thing he thought of was that the person who came was Yang Qi's master.
However, he did not think too much about this matter, but quickly contacted Li Xu. After getting Li Xu's response, he was completely relieved that Yang Qi and Li Xu were both safe.
Although the family would choose to preserve Yang Qi at the most critical moment, Li Xu was, after all, a rare demon cultivator in the Li family and a genius cultivated by the Li family for many years. The Li family had more feelings for him and also attached great importance to him. It was only in the face of family interests that they were forced to choose to sacrifice Li Xu, but this did not mean that the Li family did not attach importance to Li Xu.
Whoosh~ Whoosh~
At this moment, Yang Qi and Wang Qi had already arrived in front of Li Yu.
Li Yu looked at Wang Qi and quickly greeted him, "Li Yu from the Li family, nice to meet you, Brother Dao. If you hadn't shown up in time, I'm afraid your disciple Xu Xing would have been in danger."
"Brother Li, you have misunderstood. I am not Xuxing's master. I am Wang Qi, from the Wang family." Upon hearing this, Wang Qi hurriedly began to explain.
Hearing Wang Qi's words, Li Yu was stunned at first, but soon recovered. The Wang family should have arranged a third-level martial emperor to secretly protect them in advance, although the Li family did not seem to know about this. However, Li Yu was very grateful for the arrangement of the Wang family. Obviously, the alliance between the two families did not rely solely on the family background and reputation to get a lot of rewards, but they really made efforts.
If it weren't for the Wang family's arrangement this time, not to mention him, even Yang Qi and Li Xu would be in danger of death, and the Li family would really lose both the wife and the army.
"It turned out to be Brother Wang." Li Yu bowed slightly and continued, "Just now I sensed that a cultivator at the peak of the Martial Emperor level was heading towards Xu Xing. I was very worried about his safety. Fortunately, a fellow Taoist intervened in time."
"Brother Li, you are too kind. Even if I didn't show up, Xu Xing's crisis would have been resolved, and that peak Martial Emperor would have been killed by Xu Xing." Wang Qi hurriedly shook his head.
Hearing this, the corner of Yang Qi's mouth twitched slightly. He had originally planned to conceal this, but he didn't expect Wang Qi to say it directly. Fortunately, Wang Qi didn't know what means he used to kill the peak Martial Emperor cultivator, so he didn't have to worry about exposing the existence of the Star Orb.
What
Hearing Wang Qi's words, Li Yu's face showed a hint of disbelief. He had previously noticed that a cultivator at the peak of the Martial Emperor level was heading towards Yang Qi's location. He was very worried about Yang Qi's safety and even thought that the Li family's plan would fail this time.
After all, in his opinion, no matter how extraordinary Yang Qi was, he could never be a match for a Martial Emperor at the peak of his powers. That was why, after Wang Qi appeared, he instinctively thought that it was Wang Qi who rescued Yang Qi.
But what Wang Qi said at this moment undoubtedly told him that before Wang Qi took action, Yang Qi had already killed the peak Martial Emperor cultivator. How could Li Yu not be shocked
That was a cultivator at the peak level of the Martial Emperor. Even if the other party's talent and potential were inferior, he was still at the peak level of the Martial Emperor. Although there were also demons in this world who could fight against enemies of higher levels, and Yang Qi himself was also a demon of this level, the problem was that Yang Qi's cultivation level was only the middle stage of the Nine-Star Martial Emperor. Even if Yang Qi had the ability to fight against enemies of higher levels, or even kill enemies of higher levels, he couldn't possibly kill a cultivator at the peak level of the Martial Emperor, right
He is a peak Martial Emperor, not some random guy. Even if he takes action, it will take some effort to kill him!
Looking at the extremely shocked Li Yu, Wang Qi smiled bitterly. When he first realized this, he felt the same as Li Yu!
Seeing this, Yang Qi quickly explained, "I was just lucky, relying on some methods given by my master to kill it. I don't have this ability myself."
Master
Li Yu was startled at first, then nodded. Yang Qi really didn't have this ability. Since Yang Qi didn't rely on his own strength, he could only rely on external objects. Li Yu couldn't think of any other possibility besides his mysterious master who could give Yang Qi such a precious external object.
"Ultimate Martial Emperor?"
A gleam of brilliance flashed in the depths of Li Yu's eyes. The Li family was a family that had produced the Ultimate Martial Emperor. As a practitioner of the Li family, Li Yu was naturally very clear. It was not easy for a practitioner at Yang Qi's level to activate an external object made by a practitioner at the third level of the Peak Martial Emperor to kill a Peak Martial Emperor. Only a practitioner at the Ultimate Martial Emperor level would have a greater chance of making such an external object.
This also means that Yang Qi’s mysterious master is very likely to be at the ultimate Martial Emperor level!
hiss~
Thinking of this, Li Yu couldn't help but take a breath. It's not that they haven't thought about Yang Qi's master being a hidden strongman, but they rarely think about the Ultimate Martial Emperor. After all, the Ultimate Martial Emperor is almost the strongest person in this world. If the other party is willing, they can directly negotiate with the Li family to help Yang Qi get the inheritance of the Li family's ancestors. There is no need for Yang Qi to join the Li family and participate in the God's Choice War for the Li family.
The top leaders of the Li family are definitely willing to make friends with an Ultimate Martial Emperor just by using their ancestral inheritance. Having the other party's protection and guidance is definitely more valuable than making friends with Yang Qi and obtaining resources through the Battle of God's Choice.
Li Yu looked at Yang Qi with a slightly complicated expression and said, "Xu Xing, you've been hiding this from us for a long time."
Upon hearing this, Yang Qi did not explain. After all, having a powerful background would make it easier for him to act in this world, and it would also reduce the suspicion of other practitioners towards him.
"I hope Brother Li can keep this matter confidential. I don't want too many practitioners to know about this." Yang Qi looked at Li Yu and said.
Hearing this, Li Yu nodded quickly and said, "Of course."
