"Wang Wu, a member of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, pays his respects to Mr. Li."
··Requesting flowers···
After sizing up the man, Li Chengqian nodded and said, "He's quite sensible."
"You're not the only spy here, are you? Where are the others?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Wu knelt down with a thud.
“Mr. Li, we have no intention of plotting against you here.”
"I know that nothing in the world can be hidden from Mr. Li's eyes."
"But please, Mr. Li, have mercy and spare my brothers. We are just following orders!"
Looking at Linglong 85 Wang Wu kneeling on the ground, everyone's expressions were different.
Could it be that Mr. Li's sudden investigation of the spies at Ping An Inn was something that angered him?
Gee!
This is a serious matter; many people will die.
Seeing this, Li Chengqian rolled his eyes and said, "What's the panic? If I wanted to kill you, would I be waiting until now?"
.0
Upon hearing this, Wang Wu looked up, puzzled.
If you're not going to kill us, why did you call us out?
"Go get some paper and pen. I was hoping to find someone with nice handwriting, but since they don't want to come out, forget it."
Although he didn't understand Li Chengqian's meaning, Wang Wu still obediently did as he was told.
Soon, all the writing materials—brush, ink, paper, and inkstone—were prepared.
Wang Wu's right hand, which was holding the pen, was covered in sweat.
“I’ll read it aloud, you write it down, listen carefully.”
"Brother Zheng, I'm hosting an event here, would you like to come and join in?"
"I haven't decided on the specific rewards and event details yet, but there is one reward I've already thought of."
"The winner can ask me one question, and I can answer any question."
"But those people from Luo Wang shouldn't come. I don't really like them."
"Also, could you please pass on a message to Gai Nie and the others for me, Brother Zheng?"
"Just tell them that if they want to cure Duanmu Rong, they should come to me."
After speaking, Li Chengqian looked down and asked, "Are you finished writing?"
Wang Wu carefully blew the ink off the paper after putting down his pen.
He held the paper up with both hands and said, "Reporting to Mr. Li, not a single word was missed!"
Li Chengqian casually flicked his wrist, and the paper flew into his hand.
"It's alright, the meaning is clear, it's just that the handwriting is a bit ugly."
Then, Li Chengqian pointed his sword and chopped off a tree branch at the door.
The broken branch immediately flew towards the inn, and as it flew, wood chips fell continuously, eventually forming a token.
Snapped!
The token fell in front of Wang Wu, along with the letter from Li Chengqian.
Chapter 338 I, Li Chengqian, will give you face!
As the token fell, everyone craned their necks to see what was written on it.
But when they saw the words on the token, everyone's lips twitched.
The words on the token are not complicated; there are only six characters in total.
Four large characters and two small characters.
"Give me some face," said Li Chengqian.
The simple translation is, "I, Li Chengqian, will give you face."
After carefully putting the two items away, Wang Wu cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Li, may I ask where this letter should be sent?"
Upon hearing Wang Wu's question, the gossipy江湖客 (jianghu ke) immediately perked up his ears.
The person who is called "Brother Zheng" by Mr. Li must be someone of great importance.
If he knew the approximate location, he should be able to deduce who the person was, since it's not like Mr. Li would write a special letter to invite just anyone.
"Send it to the capital first."
"Then have Young Master Huang send it to the Qin Dynasty in the form of a state letter." (107)
"This sign is for the messenger to use on the road, since going to the Qin Dynasty involves crossing the Song, Sui, and Han dynasties."
"With this sign, no one should dare to stop us."
"puff!"
The wandering swordsman, who was drinking tea, spat out his tea.
""
So the "Zheng Ge" you're talking about is Ying Zheng!
You address a dynasty with a thousand-year history on the Nine Provinces continent like this.
Also, Young Master Huang is not your subordinate. Is it really appropriate for you to give him orders so casually?
The people at Ping An Inn were instantly at a loss for words, wishing they could immediately lose their memories.
Is this something I can listen to?
Wang Wu, who had been able to stand, felt his legs go weak; he was afraid he was in a bit of a predicament.
Forcibly suppressing their shock, the wandering swordsmen in the inn began to change the subject.
Because what just happened is not something I can talk about.
"Mr. Li, regarding the reward you just mentioned, is it really true that I can ask about anything?"
"Of course, whether you want to live forever, overthrow the dynasty, or unify the nine provinces."
"If there is a solution to this problem in the world, I will definitely tell you, and my answer will be the most useful and easiest to do."
""
Mr. Li, are you trying to give us some excitement because you think we're living too leisurely?
If you come up with this reward, it's going to cause a huge stir!
"Of course, this event offers more than just this one reward; the other rewards are also quite generous."
"But I haven't decided on the specific reward yet."
"What do you guys think of cultivation techniques for immortality, or perhaps a divine weapon that would make you invincible?"
Every time Li Chengqian read out a reward, everyone's heart would pound.
"Never mind, I'll think about this later."
"I'll tell you when the event starts."
"Alright, it's getting late, so the storytelling session is coming to an end."
"If you want to know what happens next, let's listen to the explanation next time."
After saying this, Li Chengqian was about to turn and leave, but the excited crowd refused to allow it and immediately said something.
"Mr. Li, if you're going to hold an event, you should at least mention the time."
"That's right, we haven't finished talking about the Grandmaster Ranking yet."
"You haven't mentioned the second-ranked contestant on the Rouge Ranking yet, how long are you going to keep dragging this out?!"
"oops!"
"I've missed more than once or twice, I'll wait until next time."
"The start time of the event is uncertain, but it will definitely be announced before the Qin people arrive."
Li Chengqian casually uttered two sentences, and then his figure on the high platform slowly disappeared.
""
It's always like this. One day I'll lock you in a dark room and talk to you for three days and three nights.
The storytelling event ended, and as news of the Ping An Inn spread, the entire martial arts world was in an uproar!
Mr. Li is organizing an event, and one of the rewards is the opportunity to ask a question.
An opportunity to ask Mr. Li a question.
This is a reward even more enticing than immortality or eternal life.
With this reward, you can inquire about the method of bringing the dead back to life, and you can inquire about the method of turning the world upside down (on how to rebel).
In other words, with this reward, you have the chance to have everything.
Room No. 3, Tianzi.
Ximen Chuixue's face was ashen.
Everything was as Mr. Li had said; after the battle in the capital, his swordsmanship had indeed reached a new level.
But his sword was no longer as sharp as before, because his sword was now bound by something.
Thinking of this, Ximen Chuixue glanced at Sun Xiuqing beside him and said softly.
"Does Mr. Li have a solution that satisfies both sides?"
Upon hearing this, Sun Xiuqing clenched her fists and forced a bitter smile onto her face.
"Yes, Mr. Li will surely find a way to satisfy both sides."
