I, the villainous eldest prince, will suppress everything!

On the way out of the treasure pavilion, Pei Qingluan frequently glanced at Bai Zhenzhen, who was closely following Qin Li and never leaving his side.

She sighed, marveling at how worthy she was of being the woman Qin Li had chosen. Not only did she have a great figure and beautiful looks, but the Taoist robe she wore only added to her allure.

If she were a man, she would like a woman like that too!

"Young lady, why are you staring at me like that?"

After being watched so many times, Bai Zhenzhen couldn't help but ask.

"It's nothing."

Upon being discovered, Pei Qingluan quickly looked at Qin Li and asked, "What do we do now? Go down the mountain?"

Qin Li replied, "Go down the mountain? Go down what mountain? The matter isn't finished yet, why are you in such a hurry to go down the mountain?"

"Is there anything else that hasn't been done?"

Pei Qingluan asked subconsciously.

"Of course, we should rescue Old Snake."

Zhou Biao answered eagerly.

Pei Qingluan drawled out an "oh," and said, "Oh~ I understand now, so what Zhang Hu said earlier was all true."

Zhou Biao laughed and said, "Most of it is true, but Fang Yuanzhen was not sent by His Highness."

Soon, the group returned to the huge martial arts training square at the front of Longhu Mountain.

At this moment, the square was filled with dead and wounded, and the air was thick with the scent of death.

Li Fuyao truly lives up to his reputation as a sword immortal master; his combat prowess is exceptionally strong.

He single-handedly took on the entire Dragon Tiger Sect and all the martial arts sects that came to participate in the Snake-Slaying Tournament, and held his own.

There are at least three thousand, if not five thousand, martial arts masters who have died by his sword.

The Dragon Tiger Gate was the main force, but suffered even greater casualties and will not be able to fully recover in three to five years.

However, Li Fuyao was not in good shape either. Although a grandmaster could be worth ten thousand troops, and the enemy's combat power was not comparable to that of an army, he was still hit by various techniques and weapons in turn, and he suffered considerable injuries.

If it weren't for the arrival of Li Fuyao's disciples, he would probably have perished on Longhu Mountain.

Currently, Zhang Long is leading his group in a standoff with Li Fuyao and others.

Zhang Long knelt on one knee, the machete in his hand broken in two, panting heavily.

"Li Fuyao, I think you've truly gone mad! For an old snake, for a member of the demonic path, you've actually made an enemy of the entire world!"

"Even if you're a grandmaster, let's see how long you can last..."

Li Fuyao's face was covered in blood. He opened the gourd, took a swig of wine, and said with a smile, "Little Dragon Boy, I'll definitely last longer than you."

With difficulty, Zhang Long straightened up, gripped his machete tightly, and once again rallied the troops' morale:

"Everyone, Li Fuyao has fallen into the demonic path. If we let him go, he will surely bring chaos to the world. Today, we must join forces to kill him here, as well as that old snake."

"By slaying two Grandmasters, our names will surely be known throughout the world!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

The crowd behind Zhang Long shouted in unison, raising their weapons, clearly already bloodthirsty.

Seeing that the opponent was in a strong position, several sword-wielding disciples of the Sword Sect surrounded Li Fuyao and tried to persuade him:

"Master, the enemy outnumbers us!"

"If we continue fighting, our chances of winning are not high. We might as well call it a day."

There are some things they can't say openly.

For example, Li Fuyao had absolutely no need to risk everything for Snake Elder.

Even if we win, it won't benefit the Sword Sect.

Li Fuyao shook his head and chuckled, "Today, it's not about saving lives, it's about seeking justice!"

"justice?"

The disciples of Jianmen frowned, expressing their confusion.

Li Fuyao laughed and said, "Justice has been served!"

Following Li Fuyao's gaze.

The disciples discovered that Qin Li had returned with his men.

Zhang Long also spotted Qin Li and the others, and his expression grew increasingly grim.

When Qin Li and the others returned from the back mountain, they didn't see Zhang Hu and the others. No wonder his expression was not good.

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Qin Li put his hands behind his back and walked straight to the center of the square.

Looking at the snake elder who was chained up, Qin Li bowed and clasped his hands in greeting:

"Master, you have suffered, your disciple is late."

Snake Old Man smiled, his cracked lips parting slightly. His withered old face, bathed in sunlight once more, seemed to have been reborn.

Even after being captured, he maintained a positive attitude because he knew that Qin Qinli would definitely come to rescue him.

"Your Highness!"

"This old snake is a member of the demonic path; you'd better sever ties with him!"

Zhang Long roared furiously, "If the Crown Prince doesn't sever ties with him, then I, Zhang Long, will have no choice but to act on behalf of Heaven!"

"presumptuous!"

Qin Li turned around and suddenly flicked his sleeve: "Who gave you the audacity to try and kill me?"

"I wouldn't dare!"

Despite saying he wouldn't dare, Zhang Long stood ramrod straight, head held high, and said:

"This humble servant would never dare to harm His Highness the Crown Prince, but I urge Your Highness to immediately sever all ties with this old snake!"

"If possible, Your Highness, please personally slay this old snake!"

"Otherwise, the people's hearts will not be at ease!"

"Pooh!"

Immediately, Qin Li spat and cursed, "You call yourself a commoner? How are you any different from a bandit? You're even worse than a bandit, nothing more than someone else's henchman! A scoundrel who uses force to break the law!"

"What evidence do you have that my master is a member of the demonic path? Who among you has personally witnessed my master using living people to concoct poisons?"

After that, Zhang Long fell silent.

When Snake Lao became famous, he and his younger brother Zhang Hu were still playing in the mud at home.

As for the things Snake Elder did, he had only heard about them from others; he hadn't seen them with his own eyes.

"Ha ha ha ha……"

Li Fuyao couldn't help but laugh and said, "Your Highness, you have finally spoken a fair word."

Qin Li clasped his hands in thanks to Li Fuyao.

If Li Fuyao hadn't single-handedly held on for so long, Old Snake would have died long ago.

Scanning the entire room, Qin Li coldly said, "I will count to three. Put down your weapons, and I will let bygones be bygones."

"After I finish counting to three, anyone who hasn't put down their weapon will face my wrath."

"three."

As soon as the first number was announced, more than half of the people behind Zhang Hu dropped their weapons.

A large area of ​​it clanged and clattered, like a rain of iron.

Zhang Hu tried to stop them, but to no avail.

"two."

Many people put down their weapons, and some even advised Zhang Hu to do the same and not to fight against Qin Li.

After all, the other party is the Crown Prince, representing the Great Zhou Dynasty. Qin Li is the heir apparent. Going against Qin Li will not end well.

Zhang Hu was so angry that he wanted to chop this person up. He was a coward who bullied the weak and feared the strong, and he didn't deserve to come to the Snake-Slaying Assembly.

"one!"

Even after the last number was counted, many people were still present and had not put down their weapons.

Qin Li couldn't help but rub the jade thumb ring on his thumb, bursting into laughter in exasperation:

"Very well, very well indeed. Jiangnan truly lives up to its reputation as a lawless land; you don't even obey my orders!"

Zhang Hu slung his machete over his shoulder and said with a ferocious expression:

"It's not that we're disobeying His Highness's orders, but that His Highness is willing to go down a dark path and protect those of the demonic path!"

"We, the righteous ones, vow to slay demons and eliminate evil!"

"So, you mean to say I'm a demon or monster too?

As they were talking, Zhang Hu arrived at the scene with his men, but they did not see Su Chen and Zhang Jianjia.

Su Chen probably didn't know what to do, so he chose to hide away. Zhang Jianjia, being love-struck, followed Su Chen everywhere he went.

After Zhang Hu arrived at the scene, he whispered the situation on the back mountain to Zhang Long. Zhang Long's face fell immediately after hearing it.

The treasure pavilion in the back mountain was destroyed, and so many disciples died. If they can't kill Old Snake here today, they'll have really lost out big time.

Thinking of this, Zhang Long roared, "Crown Prince! Stop being so stubborn! Our patience and concessions have their limits!"

Hearing this, even Zhou Biao laughed in anger, and couldn't help but say, "You think your attitude and patience have limits? It's His Highness the Crown Prince who has limits!"

"Hahaha, hahaha..."

Zhang Long laughed uncontrollably, his face turning manic. "Since we've come this far, it seems there's no need to continue this discussion."

Stop laughing. Zhang Long's face was not only ferocious but also showed signs of madness. No one would disagree that he was a member of the demonic path.

"Crown Prince!!"

Zhang Long roared again, "Do you really think we—no, we're less than bandits in Your Highness's eyes—have no backup plan at all?"

"Your greatest helper is Li Fuyao, but he's crippled now. Tell me, how much of his strength can he still muster?"

Unseen by the crowd, Li Fuyao's sword-wielding hand was bleeding. The intense battle had taken a toll on even this grandmaster, and he could only muster up to 40% of his strength.

"And we still have a Grandmaster at the pinnacle!"

These words caused an uproar among the crowd.

It wasn't just the people behind him who were in an uproar.

Even those behind Zhang Hu were in an uproar.

What?

Peak Grandmaster?

who is it?

As soon as he finished speaking, a cry of an eagle rang out in the sky, and a huge eagle swooped down, with a middle-aged man in white standing with his hands behind his back on its back.

"It's...it's Grandmaster Bai Jinghong!"

"He actually came..."
