Li Qingshan nodded. He had the same plan.
“Then Immortal Northstar and I will go next door. We won’t disturb you,” Xia Wuji said as he also stood up and left.
Li Qingshan didn’t stop him. Since the room next door was vacant, he needed some time to think.
Ever since he comprehended the Spatial Storm, he had only used it once. The power of that instance had shocked the Human World.
Now, he was planning to use it a second time to avenge the millions of mothers and children who had been killed.
“Bei Rong, Emperor Xia, you deserve to die!” Li Qingshan opened his eyes, a cold light flashing within. These two individuals were destined for death.
In the following days, Li Qingshan stayed in his room, not venturing anywhere. He was adjusting his condition, ensuring he was at his peak.
This adjustment made Li Qingshan feel that he was on the verge of breaking through to the Wander cultivation plane.
“After dealing with these matters, I’ll focus on cultivation and make the breakthrough, ” Li Qingshan muttered to himself.
During these few days, Immortal Northstar and Xia Wuji carefully investigated the vicinity of the official’s residence, leaving no information overlooked.
Being Ascension Immortals, they were cautious and wouldn’t be detected.
After three days, Immortal Northstar and Xia Wuji came to see Li Qingshan in the evening, sharing their findings.
“We’ve thoroughly investigated it. Bei Rong and Emperor Xia are in the side courtyard of that official’s mansion. They seem to be imprisoned and haven’t been allowed out for the past few days. Even if Bei Rong and Emperor Xia wish to go out, they get stopped.” Xia Wuji said to Li Qingshan. He picked up the teacup and drank it in one gulp.
“They’re under house arrest,” Li Qingshan remarked.
“Yes, that official seems to be acting on his own accord without the support of the City Lord,” Immortal Northstar speculated.
“Regardless of support, these two people will meet their demise tonight!” Li Qingshan declared coldly.
“Yes, remember, it’s in the east and west courtyards of that official’s mansion,” Xia Wuji said and nodded.
“That official has an appointment tonight. There are only a few soldiers guarding the mansion,” Immortal Northstar added.
“This is a perfect opportunity.” Li Qingshan stood up, stretching his muscles and bones before beginning to practice his katas.
Immortal Northstar and Xia Wuji watched from a distance, vigilant of their surroundings to ensure no one disturbed Li Qingshan.
At this moment, Li Qingshan felt as if he had returned to the Human World, to the Reflection Cliff. At that time, he was just like this, unleashing a Spatial Storm.
At Chang’an City, the residence of officials. Those who could hold positions in Chang’an were all top experts. They managed Chang’an for the City Lord, maintaining order and overseeing justice.
Previously, Wei City was divided into three regions, which were the resting area, the trading Area, and the official area.
However, Chang’an City only had two districts, which were the combined resting area and trading area and the official area.
In the official area, a magnificent courtyard with eight entrances and eight exits stood. It was very imposing. The plaque at the entrance read, “Zhou
Residence.”
Zhou Yinzu, one of the deputy City Lords of Chang’an City, was the right-hand man of the City Lord and a formidable expert at the peak of the Longevity cultivation plane.
Tonight, he went out to socialize, and his home was heavily guarded. He had no worries.
In Chang’an City, nobody dared to make a move against Zhou Yinzu.
In Zhou Yinzu’s residence, in the east and west side courtyards, Bei Rong and Emperor Xia were under soft confinement.
They felt gloomy. If they had known they would lose their freedom, they wouldn’t have come to Chang’an City with Zhou Yinzu’s entourage.
Regrettably, it was too late for such thoughts now.
“If only we had stayed hidden. Why did we decide to come to Chang’an City?” Bei Rong and Emperor Xia communicated through telepathy.
“Yeah, it was a case of being blinded by greed and we lose our mind. We could have stayed hidden for the past year. Although life might have been stifling, it was still relatively free,” Emperor Xia sighed.
“Let’s find an opportunity to escape. Then, we can sneak back to the Human World, pierce through the world barrier, and return to our world,” Bei Rong proposed.
“Agreed!” Emperor Xia promptly consented. He had no desire to linger in this Dimensional Battlefield any longer.
Inside the room, Li Qingshan was fully focused on cultivating his Qi, with heightened attention to his essence, spirit, and soul. The Great Path of Space had already manifested, and he overheard the conversation between Bei Rong and Emperor Xia.
“You want to escape?” Li Qingshan sneered inwardly.
“Have you inquired my fist?” Li Qingshan threw a punch.
In the small room, a plain punch did not have much momentum. It only caused the space to ripple slightly, and ordinary people could not see it with their naked eyes.
Only Immortal Northstar and Xia Wuji could discern it.
Space rippled from one point to another.
In Li Qingshan’s eyes, his fist had transcended the constraints of space, opening up an entirely new world.
Bei Rong appeared before him.
The next moment, Li Qingshan’s fist descended upon his head.
Then, a backhand strike closed the space between Emperor Xia and the others.
A deadly blow.
Puff! Puff!
The sound of two watermelons splitting carried away the lives of the two people.
Li Qingshan’s expression remained calm. He slowly retracted his hand, and the space in front of him swiftly returned to normal.
He glanced at Immortal Northstar and Xia Wuji, chuckling under their watchful eyes.
Xia Wuji and Immortal Northstar smiled in satisfaction.
In the east and west courtyards of the Zhou Residence, Bei Rong and Emperor Xia, who were originally discussing how to escape, had now become two corpses lying quietly on the ground. Their heads had exploded, and blood and brain matter flowed all over the ground.
The soldiers initially overlooked it, but as the scent of blood wafted, they immediately sensed something amiss. Their expressions changed dramatically as they rushed in, witnessing the gruesome scene.
“Immediately go and summon the Old Master back,” the soldier exclaimed urgently..
