The rest of the journey was peaceful. Even though the Cao Family was investigating, Lu Li was fast.
Lu Li had changed his appearance. Not everyone could tell that he was wearing the human skin mask. Only supreme warriors in the Divinity could do so.
Chi Xi-er changed her appearance as well. They had left the northern Divinity. Many scouts of the Cao Family had not reached this place yet.
After more than 10 days, Lu Li and Chi Xi-er finally arrived at a small town at the edge of the Snow Hawk Mountain.
Lu Li did not go up the mountain rashly. He believed that there must be a branch of the Hall of Blood Blade in this town. He decided to contact the branch first and see if the Hall of Blood Blade would accept the deal.
Chi Xi-er had been unwilling to go into the Wicked Bead. Lu Li did not force her.
He would put her in when there was a problem. Lu Li was confident of his abilities. Unless there were supreme warriors in the Divinity or two or three of them at the same time, he could rely on the mountain to deal with them. In the worst-case scenario, he could fly away.
Lu Li had a meal with Chi Xi-er in the town. Then, he began to use psychic power to check the town.
He didn't rashly investigate anyone or directly enter some courtyards. That would anger others.
He just checked the streets and alleys, paying attention to some mysterious places.
In just an hour, Lu Li retracted his psychic power and put on a smile.
He had found a branch of the Hall of Blood Blade!
The branch was not hidden at all. It was half public. It was in an alley to the north.
Almost nobody would pass by this alley. It was spooky. In the middle of the alley was a mansion. There were no guards at the gate, but there was a blood-red blade carved on the gate …
But this was just a branch. So what if it was discovered?
If it was not obvious, how could others contact the Hall of Blood Blade?
How could they do business with the Hall of Blood Blade?
After the meal, Lu Li walked to the alley with Chi Xi-er. As soon as they stepped into the alley, Lu Li felt some psychic power coming over. It was like a chilly breeze.
In addition, the alley was spooky. Chi Xi-er shivered and took Lu Li's hands.
"Don't be afraid!"
Lu Li smiled lightly and walked towards the gate of the Hall of Blood Blade with Chi Xi-er in his hand.
The door was opened, and inside was a cold and gloomy hall. There were no decorations in the hall, and most people would feel an inexplicable sense of fear after just a few glances.
"Go!"
Lu Li strode in. Chi Xi-er's face was pale. But holding Lu Li's hand, she was emboldened. She plucked up her courage and followed him in.
There was nothing in the hall, only a gloomy corridor. The light in the corridor was dim, and it was very long. An ordinary person would not have the courage to continue walking.
"What does the Bloodshed Hall do?"
Standing in the hall, Lu Li said coldly with no expression, "We have guests here. Don't you know how to come out and greet us?
Or … are you not doing business anymore? "
"Hehe ~"
An eerie laugh came from nowhere, scaring Chi Xi 'er so much that her body trembled and she quickly burrowed into Lu Li's arms.
The man laughed a few times and said, "Esteemed guest, if you want to do business, please state your name.
Or … barge in yourself. Our Blood Edge Hall does not do business with ordinary people! "
"Oh?
Is that so? "
A glint of coldness rose in Lu Li's eyes. He was angry that Chi Xi-er was frightened.
The Demon Slayer suddenly appeared in his hand and he hacked at the wall in front of him.
A hole appeared in the wall. Lu Li and Chi Xi-er didn't go through the corridor. Instead, they sneaked into the yard through the hole in the wall.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh ~"
There were many pavilions in the yard. Dozens of warriors swarmed out. They were clearly assassins. They were covered in black armors and only their eyes could be seen.
Even though they swarmed out, they didn't make any sound. They liked to stick to walls and walk in the shadows of trees. They seemed to be assassins who spent most of their time in the dark.
Lu Li stood in the yard with Chi Xi-er, emotionless. He used psychic power to check the surroundings. The most powerful one here was a super mighty warrior from the Divinity. Lu Li stared at him and said with a smile, "You Blood Edge Hall does not do business with ordinary people. I think it is unusual for me to come in like this.
Don't be nervous. I am not trying to provoke you. Your yard is broken. I will repair it for you with Divine Source. "
"Sir!"
The most powerful old man walked over in a creepy manner. He was covered in a black robe. He looked at Lu Li with his cloudy eyes and said, "What you have broken is not our walls, but the face of the Hall of Blood Blade.
Please give us an explanation! "
"Oh?"
Lu Li smiled. All of a sudden, he waved his sleeve. An invisible force came down and trapped everyone in the yard.
At the same time, the three mountains whooshed out from Lu Li's Wicked Bead. Looking at the old warrior coldly, Lu Li said, "Is this enough?
If you Blood Edge don't want to do business, then don't! "
"Buzzing ~"
Lu Li's Spatial Energy disappeared. Everyone could move again. All the assassins were filled with killing intent.
Lu Li was suppressing them in a branch of Blood Edge?
To them, this was a great humiliation.
"Enough!"
That old warrior waved his hand and said to the assassins, "Leave. This is an honored guest. We are sorry."
This old warrior must be the leader of the branch. As soon as he spoke, all the assassins left and disappeared into the attics. None of them were left.
That old warrior took off his cloak, bowed and said, "I am blind and have neglected you. Please forgive me.
Please come with me. We, the Blood Edge, are here to do business. "
The old warrior's attitude changed from arrogance to humility. Lu Li was surprised and so was Chi Xi-er.
But since the old warrior's attitude had changed, Lu Li would not lose his temper since he had a favor to ask from the Blood Edge.
Lu Li put up his guard. He made eye contact with Chi Xi-er and then put her into the Wicked Bead.
Assassins were many times more powerful than average warriors. This old warrior was a super mighty warrior in the Divinity. He must be a powerful assassin. Lu Li was afraid that Chi Xi-er would be in danger if he suddenly made a move.
The old warrior said nothing when Lu Li put away Chi Xi-er. He walked toward a small castle with a smile.
Lu Li followed him in, keeping his guard up. The three mountains were flying behind him.
"Hmm!"
The old warrior went in and sat down. Two maids came in to serve tea. The old warrior said, "You don't have to suspect that we have ulterior motives. We, the Blood Edge, do not want to bring destruction upon ourselves. We will not make you our enemy."
"Oh?"
Lu Li was surprised. He could tell something from the old warrior's words. A glint of coldness rose in Lu Li's eyes as he asked, "You know who I am?"
"Yes!"
The old warrior bowed and said, "Young Master Lu, you are famous in the Divinity and at the Land of Youyan. We, the Blood Edge, have a branch at the Land of Youyan. We know something about the skill that made Young Master Lu famous.
It is because we know who you are that we do not dare to disrespect you. The Blood Edge is only doing business. We do not want to be like the Craftsmen's Sect and the Palace of Dominating Heaven. We hope that we can be friends with Young Master Lu.
Our Clan Master once said — one day, there will be a chance to change the world. Young Master Lu, you are one of them. "
"What?"
The glint of coldness grew in Lu Li's eyes upon hearing the old warrior's words.
The consequences of exposing his identity would be dire. What if the Blood Edge colluded with the four legendary forces? He wouldn't even know how he died …
…
