"I want to know! I won't tell you," Li Rui said repeatedly, but he needed to find Flower Mother first.
There should be more news from the royal family! Li Rui was also puzzled; he never expected that the royal family, which had been doing well locally, would suddenly bring up these issues. What kind of meeting were they holding? Could it be an interrogation of Flower Mother?
"Who are you? This place is not for just anyone to enter!"
Upon hearing this, Li Rui's expression darkened. Was this guy looking for trouble? What was he trying to express with that remark, "just anyone"? It seemed like the other party was the one who fit that description.
With a loud slap, Li Rui struck in front of the guard. He knew this mudfish couldn't turn over; perhaps he could use "him" to find someone higher up and learn unexpected news!
"What are you all standing there for? Get over here!" With that shout, it seemed no one wanted to respond! A casual slap sent the guard flying ten meters away; if he used his full strength, wouldn't it bury him three feet deep? But it was known that the guard's strength was only a level below Li Rui's!
"Get moving! Why are you hesitating?" Li Rui cast a cold glance, indifferent to everything.
No one made a move or even spoke!
"Who dares to be reckless in our royal city? Are you tired of living?" A man stood atop the royal city, looking like a great general, imposing and seemingly experienced in many battles!
Li Rui felt no sense of threat from him and did not regard him highly.
The general saw Li Rui's demeanor and leaped down. Perhaps he was at the sixth level of True Immortal, looking down on Li Rui, who was at the peak of the Core Formation stage with disdain.
"Kid! If you can push me back, I'll let you enter the city."
Li Rui felt secretly pleased upon hearing this but maintained a calm exterior. He had faced three True Immortals at the eighth level in a similar manner back then; now there was only one. Was he floating or was the latter unable to hold his ground?
Then Li Rui stood right in front of him without moving a muscle, only his gaze fixed on him!
The general felt fear for the first time, sensing death approaching. His head hung low, not daring to look at Li Rui even once.
"General? Do you still want me to take action?"
"No, no, no! Please come in, young hero, I..." The general involuntarily replied upon hearing this.
Li Rui boldly entered the imperial city. When dealing with someone more assertive, one must respond with equal force; he could not allow such arrogance to continue!
The general watched as Li Rui left, swallowing hard. He never expected such a turn of events; it was truly...
"Why do I feel a strange familiarity with this guy, yet..."
As Li Rui and his companion walked on, they discovered a martial arts arena! The first place winner could request a reward from the ruler of the Falling Blossom Kingdom and meet a host of people. The latter sensed this was an opportunity that must be seized; otherwise, it would be quite embarrassing to miss out.
"Ruxi, are you tired? I'm sorry for making you carry my Water Fire Staff." Li Rui said with a wry smile. His Water Fire Staff was too conspicuous, and very few practiced staff techniques.
"It's not heavy at all! It's like carrying air."
Li Rui frowned at this remark. Shouldn't the feeling of carrying air apply to him instead? The Water Fire Staff was a spiritual weapon; could it be that Ruxi truly recognized it? Looking at the relaxed expression on her face, he began to believe it more!
"My master requests your presence!" At that moment, someone appeared before Li Rui and said calmly.
Li Rui furrowed his brows slightly, but was suddenly alarmed. If even a servant had reached the peak of True Immortal level, then what about their master...?
"Do I have any chance to refuse?" Li Rui couldn't help but ask, only to receive a shake of the head in response.
Then the latter let out a bitter laugh and followed him!
On the way, Mo Ruxi couldn't help but send a message to Li Rui, indicating that she could easily eliminate him! Why...
The latter smiled calmly; when someone came to visit, he wanted to see who it was, and he did not feel any sense of threat from the other party! Perhaps he was not an enemy.
At the foot of the royal city of the Falling Petal Kingdom, after winding through several turns, they finally arrived at a residence that appeared somewhat dilapidated on the surface. It was unclear what the inner courtyard looked like!
"Young hero, please come in!"
Li Rui nodded lightly and then entered with Mo Ruxi.
However, what the latter imagined was completely different from what he saw. He had originally thought that the interior would be luxurious, but reality slapped him in the face; it was desolate here. Not only were there no furnishings, but even the trees and flowers were withered!
Li Rui did not ask why; he understood the situation well enough. Instead, he wanted to learn about his host's circumstances. If a servant had such strength, one could only imagine how powerful the master must be!
"Li Rui, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" As soon as Li Rui stepped into the main room, he heard this statement.
"Who exactly are you?" The latter was startled by these words, and his vigilance heightened! He instinctively took a step back and asked in return.
It was unnecessary to hide in front of a strong opponent; it was better to admit it seriously and see what this guy wanted.
"Ah Fu! You go out first; I want to have a few words with him."
In an instant, Ah Fu disappeared with a whoosh.
"Why did you come back?" the white-haired old man asked.
"Are you asking me? My wife's master was captured, so I had no choice but to come. Given your demeanor, I assume you're not here to capture me!" Li Rui replied.
"Then Flower Woman indeed did not misjudge; this time Old Man miscalculated. From now on, just call me Old Man Huo! This must be her disciple!" The white-haired old man smiled and responded.
"Um? What do you mean?"
When Li Rui learned everything from Old Man Huo, he was suddenly shocked. Although he had anticipated this before, he never expected that Flower Mother had already fallen into the enemy's hands!
Old Man Huo informed Li Rui that his current abilities were insufficient and that he needed to reach the Divine Transformation Realm to resist!
At this moment, the latter was stunned and couldn't help but ask why he wouldn't help!
"Alas! I want to help, but I can't," Old Man Huo said as he extended his right hand!
When Li Rui saw this scene, he froze in place. The entire hand was riddled with holes and bore the character "Ming"! Perhaps the latter had already thought of something.
"Are they from Beiming?"
"You actually know about Beiming?" Old Man Huo was taken aback, once again reshaping his understanding of Li Rui!
