928 Xia Yueqing
They went to the bedroom next door. The bedroom was in ruins, and there were some corpses littering the floor.
Li Nanping cleaned up as much as he could and helped Li Nanchu to his seat.
Li Nanchu was already on the verge of death. It was as if he had lost his soul, and there was a strange look on his face.
Li Nanping became nervous and could not help but call out to him.
However, Li Nanchu no longer had the strength to speak.
Li Nanchu used all his strength to raise his hand and pat Li Nanping’s palm.
Li Nanping understood something. Tears could not help but flow out of his eyes. He said sadly, “I hope we get to be brothers in our next life too.”
Tears drenched his clothes, but Li Nanchu still died.
Touching his cold skin, Li Nanping felt like nothing was real. He could not help but kneel on the ground.
“I will definitely take up your mantle. Please rest in peace.”
After the brothers left, Jiang Ming started discussing their next plan.
They could not stay in the Xiaguo Kingdom any longer. Li Nanchu’s death was imminent, and Li Nanping definitely would not let them off.
When he had the chance, he would definitely try to hurt them.
“There’s no need for us to partic.i.p.ate in this banquet. We’ll leave tonight.”
Jiang Ming had a firm look in his eyes and had no intention of staying.
Unexpectedly, when they were packing up, a group of soldiers surrounded them.
The leader, Xia Yueqing, entered the door. He was wearing purple and green robes.
There was a moon pattern on his robes. Xia Yueqing rushed over and raised his hand to release a huge halo at Jiang Ming and the others.
This halo was dark purple, and it was so bright that everyone’s eyes hurt.
When they saw the situation in front of them clearly, Jiang Ming and the others realized that a halo had been added to their bodies.
This halo was like a shackle that tightly bound them.
“Did Li Nanping hire you?”
Jiang Ming sized up Xia Yueqing and the soldiers behind him. The soldiers were strong and looked at him coldly.
“What?” Jiang Ming sneered. “Do you think a mere halo is going to capture us?”
Xia Yueqing laughed and looked at Jiang Ming as if he was a dead man.
“Ning Caichen, your death is near, and you are still like this.”
Yuan Hehe rolled his eyes. “Do you really think you can stop us? Don’t be so c.o.c.ky.”
Sikong Wuyuan rubbed his nose and touched the halo. His expression could not help but change. “Is this a halo created by the monk of Shanglin Temple, Abbot Daode?”
The child’s eyes were filled with confusion. “Hadn’t he been missing for tens of thousands of years? How can the halo he created still exist?”
“No, child, you don’t understand now. Although Abbot Daode has been gone for many years, he has left behind many treasures. However, these treasures are very difficult to find. The person who can obtain such a treasure now must have such terrifying strength.”
In the end, Sikong Wuyuan’s voice became softer and softer, and his expression gradually became unreadable.
Jiang Ming was confident, but he did not think that their spiritual energy would not be able to block this halo.
“Wow, you’re quite knowledgeable. Enjoy the power this halo gives you.”
Xia Yueqing touched the saber in his hand and raised his hand to signal for everyone to leave.
He turned around and left.
Jiang Ming did not say anything. He lowered his head and waited for the other soldiers to leave.
He was a little worried about his confidence in breaking this halo, so it was best if there were no outsiders around.
However, Yuan Hehe called out mindlessly, “You’re just a puppet being controlled. Who do you think you are?”
“Looks like you want to die faster!”
Xia Yueqing turned around and swung his sword at Yuan Hehe without hesitation.
Yuan Hehe did not even have time to react.
Seeing that his companion was about to be split into two, Jiang Ming quickly looked into Xia Yueqing’s eyes and released his spiritual energy.
Xia Yueqing’s raised hand paused, and his body was forced back by the spiritual energy.
“This… What kind of power is this?”
When he was at a safe distance, he looked around. He had no idea who had released his spiritual energy.
“I was wondering what kind of person you were.” Yuan Hehe laughed mockingly. “Looks like you’re just a weakling!”
“Brat, don’t be so conceited. It’s definitely not your spiritual energy, I’m sure of it.”
Xia Yueqing was fl.u.s.tered and exasperated, but he still remained rational.
As he spoke, he looked around, trying to find the person who had released the power, but he could not find him no matter how hard he tried.
At this moment, Xia Yueqing could not help but feel frustrated.
He would not allow anyone to be stronger than him. He had to kill that person!
Jiang Ming kept silent.
He felt that there was no need for him to say anything more to Xia Yueqing.
Yuan Hehe could totally run his mouth.
Just as he had expected, Yuan Hehe was furious. “You’re just someone else’s lackey. You don’t even have your own personality. What right do you have to criticize me?”
“I should have killed you!”
Xia Yueqing could not refute Yuan Hehe’s argument, so he quickly rushed forward, wanting to kill him.
Jiang Ming seized the opportunity and released his spiritual energy again.
Xia Yueqing was immediately forced to retreat by his spiritual energy.
His expression was extremely unsightly.
“Get out here! One of you must be releasing that d.a.m.n spiritual energy. Don’t let me catch you, or you’ll die!”
He shouted several times.
Jiang Ming did not know whether to laugh or cry.
Wasn’t Xia Yueqing too stupid? He seemed to have said such words countless times. He was really something else.
“Stop blabbering. You’re being noisy!” Sikong Wuyuan lost his patience and shouted at Xia Yueqing.
Seeing that another person was bullying him, Xia Yueqing was unhappy.
“Aren’t you all going too far? Tell me who released the spiritual energy. Otherwise, don’t be so stubborn.”
“It’s me.”
Jiang Ming felt that there was no need to continue hiding it.
Thinking of this, he removed the halo around his waist and threw it out.
The halo hit Xia Yueqing’s head. He groaned and covered his head. He was so angry that he wanted to go up and punch Jiang Ming.
However, the spiritual energy directly forced him to retreat. Xia Yueqing had no way to move forward at all.
His expression changed again. Then, he simply called his subordinates.
“Muscle man, go!”
