Chapter 91 Chase

Outside Daliang City, in the dense forest.

"Master! What's wrong with you?"

Seeing that Li Zhiwu's face was bloodless, Ma Le showed a surprised expression.

He knew that his master was a martial artist in the martial arts realm, not to say he was the top martial artist in Daliang City, but he was definitely not weak either.

It's not uncommon to be injured.

Li Zhiwu said casually: "It's nothing, I had a fight with Emperor Jian'an."

Everyone in the world knows that the Zhao Clan's fortunes in the Wei state have not yet come to an end. How dare the master confront the King of Wei in the palace?
Hearing this answer, Ma Le fell silent.

Li Zhiwu ordered: "Get ready to go back."

Ma Le didn't ask the reason behind it, but whispered behind him.

There was a rustling sound.

The other warriors who had ambushed in advance came out one by one from the dense forest.

"Let them disperse separately. Now that the fifth prince has returned to the palace smoothly, there is no point in staying here any longer." Li Zhiwu ordered: "Also, if I hear any rumors about today's incident outside, let them Watch out for the lives of your family members."

These warriors are all forces he secretly cultivated outside, and belong to his personal force, so they obey him.

Ma Le hesitated for a moment and said: "Master, you are injured now, do you want to save some people to escort you?"

Li Zhiwu glanced at Ma Le and said, "In your eyes, is Master Ni so unbearable?"

"Master is naturally incomparably powerful in the eyes of the disciples." Ma Le hurriedly took a step back and knelt down and said, "I just think it's better to be careful. The master was injured, and the disciple was worried that Emperor Jian'an would take the opportunity to attack him on the way. It's not good for Master."

Li Zhiwu sneered and said, "Emperor Jian'an, he wouldn't dare to give him ten more guts."

"But what you said is also reasonable. It's always right to be careful on the road. There are so many people who are really conspicuous. Just keep two or three escorts, and everyone else can go back."

Ma Le nodded and said, "Yes, Master."

He is not the only one who cultivates personal influence like him in the first sect, and it has almost become an unspoken rule in the sect.

But everyone does it in private, and he can't make it too public.

Better to be low-key.

Ma Le dealt with all the following matters step by step.

For the sake of safety, he purposely kept the two warriors with the highest cultivation bases.

An innate martial artist, a martial artist who knows the ninth rank.

Coupled with his cultivation base of knowing the eighth grade, Ma Le felt that it should be enough to deal with emergencies on the road.

Li Zhiwu said impatiently, "It's only about an hour's journey, why are you so procrastinating?"

"Master, the disciple has already made arrangements."

Li Zhiwu said calmly: "All the disciples under my sect are indeed the calmest, but this is too timid, and it will be difficult to achieve great things in the future."

Ma Le clasped his fists and said, "I will remember Master's teachings."

"Let's go."

……

In Daliang City, Zhao Hongming kept walking.

His figure flickered in the crowd.

While walking, Zhao Hongming secretly adjusted the muscle shape of his face, and soon changed into another mature and handsome man.

With the ability of Huang Mixing, Zhao Hongming's movements are very fast.

However, he chased all the way, but did not find any trace of Li Zhiwu.

He stood in the crowd and stopped, muttering to himself: "Is it still too late?"

Ahead, a group of warriors passed by.

"This time I finally came to Daliang, how can the brothers not have a good time?"

"Extremely. Elder Li doesn't need us, it's exactly what we want."

"It's because of the second brother and the others."

"Sigh, don't worry about it, let's go for a walk and go to Goulan to listen to the music."

"Brother, you won't fall into it, right? Listen to my younger brother, the girls in the fence are like sand, no matter how much money you spend, you can't grasp it at all."

"What's the matter? The sand that can't be held wet makes it wet, isn't it all right?"

"This... big brother is right!"

They walked together and talked loudly in the street.

Zhao Hongming's five senses are sensitive, even if they are far away, he still listens to their conversations.

From what they said, he vaguely felt that these people might have something to do with Li Zhiwu.

Zhao Hongming followed silently with no expression on his face.

Seeing that there were not many people around, he stepped across decisively and stood in front of them, blocking their way.

The smiles on the faces of these warriors restrained a little bit, and they said in a bad tone: "What do you mean, Your Excellency?"

"I've offended some strong men." Zhao Hongming said politely: "I want to ask something, is the Elder Li you are talking about, Elder Li Zhiwu Li from the same school?"

"A brother in my family heard that Elder Li has a high prestige in Zhengyi Sect. He planned to visit him, but he has been suffering from no connections. Just now, he heard that you mentioned Elder Li, so he came here to find out more."

When these warriors heard that they wanted to go through the back door, their faces softened a little, and they denied it: "You heard it wrong, we didn't talk about Elder Laoshizi Li!"

wrong.

Seeing how they tried to deny it, Zhao Hongming immediately knew that he was inseparable.

"Excuse me. By the way, I want to ask, which way is better to go from Daliang to Zhengyimen now."

A martial artist said impatiently: "It is the official road to the north of Lishan."

"Thank you guys."

Zhao Hongming cupped his fists and walked quickly outside the city.

One of the warriors looked at the back of Zhao Hongming leaving, and said: "There is something wrong with this person. I feel that he deliberately inquired about Elder Li, as if he was going to chase after Elder Li."

"It's probably because he doesn't give up and wants to hug Elder Li's thigh."

"You said, is it possible that Emperor Jian'an sent to kill Elder Li?"

"How is it possible? Elder Li's martial arts cultivation base, and several brothers to help him, there are very few people who can move him."

"But now that Elder Li is injured, it's hard to say."

"Don't worry about these, even if Elder Li is injured, he is better than me, so worry about it. Let's go!"

Zhao Hongming didn't stay in Daliang, and soon walked out of the city.

There are many paths leading to Zhengyi Gate, and if he really had to choose, he really didn't know which path Li Zhiwu would take to leave.

But thanks to those people, he has a general direction.

Generally speaking, when people ask for directions, they will subconsciously answer the road they have just traveled.

Zhao Hongming guessed that they probably walked along the road on the north side of Lishan Mountain.

He remained silent, and involuntarily quickened his pace.

Compared with the official road on the East Lake, the official road on the north side of Lishan Mountain has more dense forests, and some roads are narrow and difficult to walk.

At that time, Ma Le and others chose to sneak in the dense forest in order to ambush, so they didn't ride horses, and only relied on the martial arts' legs and feet to move forward.

Now that they were going back to the front door, they could only walk back with their legs. In addition, Li Zhiwu was injured, and their speed could not be raised at all.

Li Zhiwu walked on the road, took out a elixir and swallowed it, and circulated his true energy to relieve the injury in his body.

Just then, he paused.

Ma Lezai hurriedly said, "What's the matter, master?"

"It seems that someone is chasing him, and the speed is very fast."
