Chapter 186 The more the better

Those who supported Hua Qianyu inside the council chamber got up and headed out of the council chamber when they saw Hua Qianyu retreat.

The others were puzzled by this, but the City Lord Hua's face turned extremely ugly as he looked at the departing group and said, "Are you all determined to betray the City Lord's Mansion?"

No one answered him; they simply quickened their pace and left the council chamber.

"Very well!" City Lord Hua looked at Hua Qianyu, who was also preparing to leave, and said coldly, "Go, all of you go! Once you leave, don't even think about coming back to the City Lord's Mansion!"

Hua Qianyu sneered upon hearing this and looked at City Lord Hua in the main seat: "Father, this is not something you can decide." After saying this, before City Lord Hua could say anything more, Hua Qianyu left the council chamber as quickly as possible.

The others didn't know what they were doing, but when Hua Qianyuan saw Hua Qianyu leave, she quickly ran to Ling Yi's side: "Oh, beauty, are you alright?"

As Hua Qianyuan spoke, she slapped Ling Yi's face.

"puff"

A flash of white light, and Hua Qianyuan's hand fell to the ground.

The knife was drawn too fast; his hand was already on the ground before Hua Qianyuan felt the pain and screamed. However, before he could finish his scream, the bone knife in Ling Yi's hand pierced his heart.

Hua Qianyuan stared at Ling Yi in disbelief. Ling Yi drew his bone knife, kicked Hua Qianyuan, and said impatiently, "Shut up!"

Hua Qianyuan's plump body landed with a thud. Hearing that sound, the people in the council chamber finally came to their senses and looked at Ling Yi in disbelief!

Judging from his complexion, posture, and even the speed and power of his strike, Ling Yi didn't seem like someone who had been poisoned by the Bone-Softening Pill. Plus, Hua Qianyu and the others had suddenly left...

The members of the council were startled and quickly looked towards the entrance of the council. They saw Hua Qianyu and the others standing at the entrance, and a barrier was rapidly rising from the entrance, isolating them from the outside world.

If they still can't see it at this point, then they're just as useless as Hua Qianyuan!

"Yuan'er!"

While others were shocked by the collusion between Hua Qianyu and Ling Yi, Lord Hua flew to Hua Qianyuan's body with a sorrowful expression. Looking at his son, whose hand had been severed and who had been stabbed to death, Lord Hua's face was covered with tears: "Yuan'er!"

The man was dead, and no matter how much Lord Hua called out, there was no response.

"It was you!" Lord Hua looked at Ling Yi and said angrily, "You killed my Yuan'er!"

"I want you to be buried with my Yuan'er!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lord Hua attacked Ling Yi directly.

Ling Yi moved swiftly and went straight to meet the attack. In the instant he clashed with City Lord Hua, Ling Yi sensed City Lord Hua's strength.

He was at the Huangling Master level, but not as advanced as Cheng Xu.

Thinking of this, Ling Yi didn't hesitate and immediately had Tian Yan increase his strength to a level his body could handle before going forward again.

The moment Ling Yi attacked the city lord, countless vines flew out and attacked the others in the courtyard.

The city lord was shocked that Ling Yi could deal with others as well as him. His eyes were filled with disbelief. But before he could look again, Ling Yi appeared in front of him and slashed at the city lord with his bone knife.

The city lord saw the bone blade coming and hurriedly used his longsword to block it, but...

The next moment, the longsword was cut in two, and the bone knife landed on his body. Before the city lord could even scream in pain, Ling Yi kicked him away.

"Pfft!" The city lord suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood. As he tried to steady himself, Ling Yi appeared behind him, waving his bone knife and sending out a flash of light.

"puff"

The blade struck the city lord's back, leaving a deep, bone-revealing wound. The city lord fell to the ground in a disheveled state.

Seeing this, the other members of the council tried to save the city lord, but they were entangled in the vines and could only watch helplessly as Ling Yi walked towards the city lord.

Ling Yi stopped beside the city lord, put away his bone knife, squatted down, and began to absorb power.

Sensing the loss of power within his body, the city lord looked at Ling Yi in horror: "Who exactly are you?"

Ling Yi stared coldly at him without answering. As he prepared to leave after absorbing most of the power, he heard City Lord Hua say angrily, "That Hua Qianyu, that beast..."

Ling Yi paused in her departure and looked down at him.

Knowing he was doomed, Lord Hua no longer cared. Before dying, he cursed, "She conspired with outsiders to murder her father and brother! She shall die a horrible death! She shall die a horrible death!"

The barrier doesn't block sound; anyone with a discerning eye can hear what Lord Hua is saying. Ling Yi looked up at the council chamber, where Hua Qianyu appeared calm, as if she were already used to it.

Ling Yi withdrew his gaze, touched Hua Chengzhu's forehead with his fingertip, and a wisp of black mist entered Hua Chengzhu's body. Without the power to protect him, the poison spread extremely quickly, and in no time, Hua Chengzhu turned into a pool of black liquid.

After dealing with Lord Hua, Ling looked at the others.

The others in the courtyard were first injured by Ling Yi, then had their power devoured, and finally were injected with poison. In the end, they didn't even leave behind a corpse; they turned directly into a puddle of liquid.

Outside the council chamber, those who supported Hua Qianyu breathed a sigh of relief after witnessing Ling Yi kill those people. Thank goodness…

Fortunately, the young lady was smart and chose to cooperate. If she had sent people to capture them like the second young master, not only the city lord and his men would have died today, but they would have too.

After dealing with the person, Ling Yi raised his hand and removed the barrier. At the same time, the power within his body rapidly receded, and his body instantly became exhausted.

After noticing that something was wrong with Ling Yi, Bai Jiu and Ye Qingshuang quickly stepped forward: "How are you?"

Ling Yi shook her head: "It's nothing."

"Ling Yi." Hua Qianyu ran in from outside. Seeing that Ling Yi's hands were covered in blood, she quickly took out a porcelain bottle and poured out a pill: "This is a top-quality healing pill. As long as you take it, the wound will heal quickly."

Ling Yi accepted the pill without ceremony and ate it. Then he looked at Hua Qianyu and said, "You help me gather the people together, and I will help you kill them. Our cooperation is over."

“I don’t understand.” Hua Qianyu looked at Ling Yi: “Our cooperation is basically that you helped me kill people, but you didn’t get any benefit yourself.”

"These are the conditions," Ling Yi said. "I don't need anything else."

Hearing this, Hua Qianyu had no choice but to suppress her doubts and instead asked, "Are you leaving?"

"Hmm." The city lord of Flower Dance City has become Hua Qianyu. Hua Qianyu is unlikely to send anyone to kill her, so there's no need to stay here any longer since she can't attract any malice points.

Hua Qianyu frowned: "You're injured, why don't you stay in the manor to rest before you leave?"

Ling Yi shook his head, looked at Hua Qianyu and said, "Once the transaction is over, we're done. Don't do anything unnecessary." After saying that, he looked at Ye Qingshuang and Bai Jiu and said, "Let's go."

The two nodded and followed Ling Yi away.

Hua Qianyu followed and reminded them, "The wanted posters aren't just here; there are some up ahead too. You need to be extra careful."

"Hmm." Ling thought, "Wanted posters are great, the more the better."
