Time Travel: The Survival of Li Zhi

Chapter 104 Qingyang City, Grudges

This time when Master Liu went out, he did not go to the Director Peak to ride the air cavalry.

Instead, he took Li Zhi and walked to the coast.

This puzzled Li Zhi, so he asked, "Master, why don't we just ride the demon bird out?"

"The demon bird has a strong demonic aura, which may alert the water dragon. Let's leave the island first, and then we can go find the water dragon on our own."

Master Liu said this, and then drew circles on the shore with his bare hands. As his hands moved, circles of faint light spread out from the position of his wreath.

Suddenly, waves appeared on the coast. After a while, a monster turtle swam up from the sea. The monster turtle stuck its head out of the water, looked at Master Liu and Li Zhi, and then slowly approached.

This demon turtle is huge in size, almost the same size as the demon bird on the Director Peak. Its wide carapace can accommodate four or five people standing on it.

When the monster turtle came closer, Master Liu jumped lightly and stood on its back, and Li Zhi also jumped over.

After Master Liu and the others stood on the back shell of the monster turtle, the monster turtle slowly turned its huge body and swam slowly forward.

This monster turtle is not fast, although its speed is about the same as riding a boat, but it is much slower than those monster birds.

On the turtle's back shell, Li Zhi glanced at Master Liu standing beside him.

It seems that Master Liu has closed his eyes and stopped speaking since he got on the back of the monster turtle.

Li Zhi's eyes flickered, then he looked back at the Xiaoyao Mountain which was gradually receding into the distance, and sighed in his heart.

But soon, his eyes gradually became firm.

Li Zhi gazed into the distance, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.

As if sensing Li Zhi's emotional change, Master Liu opened his eyes slightly and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, but this smile seemed a little weird.

There was no conversation along the way. The monster turtle transported Master Liu and Li Zhi to an uninhabited shore. After Master Liu and Li Zhi left its back shell and stood on the shore, it dived into the sea.

Li Zhi looked around and found that the monster turtle was obviously very familiar with the surrounding environment and had placed them in this deserted place.

It also saves them from being watched by others. After all, they are riding on a monster turtle and walking on the water. If these people who are bent on seeking the immortal way see them, Li Zhi and Master Liu will probably be treated as immortals and watched by others.

"Master, where should we find the water dragon?" Li Zhi asked Master Liu.

After identifying the direction, Master Liu said, "The matter of the water dragon is not urgent. Let's go. Accompany me first. I have some personal matters to deal with."

Li Zhi frowned when he heard this, not knowing what Master Liu was planning, but he still followed Master Liu.

What Li Zhi didn't expect was that Master Liu, who always liked to travel on foot, actually took the initiative to ask Li Zhi to buy two horses, saying that riding horses would be faster.

This made Li Zhi unable to help but secretly look at Master Liu all day long. Could it be that as he became younger, his thoughts also changed?

There was no distribution of silver in Xiaoyao Mountain, so Master Liu did not have a penny on him.

However, fortunately, Li Zhi had previously killed Li Feng in Hailing City and robbed him of some silver, so he was still relatively wealthy at the moment. Otherwise, not only would it be difficult to buy a horse, but even eating would have become a problem.

As a disciple of Xiaoyao Mountain, you can't just go begging for alms.

When Li Zhi was buying a horse in Wangxian Town, he suddenly remembered that he had a horse that was left here because it could not get on the ship.

So, Li Zhi bought a horse and came to the inn.

The innkeeper is an honest man. Li Zhi's horse has been kept here for several months, and the inn has been helping Li Zhi take care of and feed the horse.

After expressing his gratitude, Li Zhi paid the shopkeeper some silver and then took his brown horse away.

After leaving Wangxian Town, Li Zhi and Master Liu both mounted their horses and rode away from Wangxian Town.

 …

Ezhou, Qingyang City.

There is a big family in Qingyang City, the surname Lin.

The Lin family is a famous immortal family in Qingyang City. All disciples in the family who are of certain age and have decent qualifications will be arranged to enter various immortal gates.

The Lin family's ancestor, Lin Dong, was an immortal-like figure who had lived for nearly two hundred years.

Moreover, legend has it that the Lin family, which has stood in Qingyang City for over a hundred years, once nearly suffered genocide.

Fortunately, Lin Dong, the ancestor of the Lin family, took action and killed the intruder, allowing everyone in Qingyang City at that time to see Lin Dong's strength.

That battle completely established the Lin family's position in Qingyang City.

At this moment, two outsiders came to Qingyang City.

Both of them were wearing Taoist robes and riding horses.

The people who came were Master Liu and his disciple Li Zhi.

"Master, what are we doing here?"

Along the way, Master Liu did not reveal the purpose of his trip. Now that they have finally arrived in Qingyang City, Li Zhi could not help but ask.

"I'm here to show you the elegance of Qingyang City's number one family!"

Immortal Master Liu sneered and rode forward.

"From the tone of voice, it seems that he is here to seek revenge..."

Li Zhi muttered something quietly and was about to follow when he saw Master Liu in front of him suddenly pull the reins.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhi stepped forward and asked.

Could it be that he saw his enemy?

Li Zhi frowned and immediately became alert. He quickly looked around at the people and things around him.

The Qi in his body also started to circulate instantly, and his right hand had already grasped the hilt of the sword. His whole state was like a fully drawn bowstring, ready to strike at any time.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, I heard Master Liu say, "Let's deposit the horse at the inn first. This horse is quite expensive. It would be bad if it gets hurt in a fight."

Li Zhi almost suffocated. He rolled his eyes speechlessly and said, "I've taken off my pants, and you show me this?"

Although Li Zhi really wanted to tell Master Liu that at such a serious moment, he could ignore the horse for the time being.

But then he thought that the price of a horse was indeed quite expensive, so he obediently followed Master Liu's instructions and deposited the horse in a nearby inn.

When they arrived at the inn, Master Liu was not in a hurry and told Li Zhi to just finish his meal before going.

Li Zhi also agreed. After all, it was not him who wanted revenge. Master Liu himself was not in a hurry, so Li Zhi was even less anxious.

Moreover, they had been traveling all the way and had only eaten dry food for several days, so Li Zhi also wanted to eat something good.

Summoning the waiter, Master Liu said proudly, "Bring me all your signature dishes!"

Upon hearing this, Li Zhi stared at Master Liu with wide eyes. He remembered that when he was with Master Liu before, he was not so extravagant.

Normally, the best he would eat would be more meat dishes. Why is he being so generous today?

Master Liu glanced at Li Zhi, as if he could see what Li Zhi was thinking. He smiled and said, "Anyway, you are the one who pays. I don't have any money!"

Li Zhi was shocked!

Listen! People say no!

Seeing the waiter serving 18 signature dishes in a row, Li Zhi felt heartbroken. How could two people finish the food of this spendthrift Master Liu?

Li Zhi carefully weighed the purse on his waist again, fearing that it would not be enough to pay back later.

After a satisfying meal, Li Zhi asked about the feud between Master Liu and the Lin family.

After asking this, he found out that when Li Zhi was still immersed in the Heart-Seeing Mirror, Master Liu was afraid that the matter of Sitting on the Mountain King would be delayed for too long and something unexpected would happen.

So he left first, but when he passed through Qingyang City, he had a conflict with the children of Lin family because of some trivial matters. With Master Liu's temperament, if these children of Lin family provoked him, they would be skinned alive if not killed.

But Master Liu happened to be injured at the time. In order to avoid worsening of his injuries, Master Liu restrained himself and was unwilling to take action.

However, as the first family in Qingyang City, the children of the Lin family had long developed a temperament of making unreasonable troubles. When they saw Master Liu retreat, they thought that Master Liu was afraid of them, so they became more and more aggressive, and finally forced Master Liu to spit out the sword ball in anger, killing two people in a row.

These Lin family members were like local tyrants in Qingyang City. When they saw their clansmen being killed, they were shocked and furious and quickly reported it to the family.

Finally, Lin Dong, the ancestor of the Lin family, heard that the murderer used the Jianwan Flying Sword Technique.

Lin Dong is also a cultivator of the older generation, so he naturally recognizes the magic of Xiaoyao Mountain. Although Xiaoyao Mountain is powerful, Lin Dong is not afraid.

Moreover, he had never seen the true strength of Xiaoyao Mountain, and thought that he was no less capable than the people of Xiaoyao Mountain.

After all, he had been living a life of luxury in Qingyang City for over a hundred years, so who would dare to disobey him?

So, after Lin Dong came forward, the two sides had a brief exchange, but unfortunately it ended unpleasantly, and it ended with Master Liu being slapped away by Lin Dong.

How could Master Liu endure such a huge loss? However, he was seriously injured and the matter of becoming the King of the Mountain was a big deal, so Master Liu had to swallow the loss in silence.

And now that Immortal Master Liu's cultivation has recovered to its peak, it is natural for him to come here to ask for an explanation.
