I Can Deduce Arts by Slaying Demons-Chapter 88: Li Chengfeng’s Shock!

When they arrived at the entrance of the Profound Bird Guard’s residence, Zhao Sheng and his two companions immediately dismounted.

Then, without stopping, Zhao Sheng walked straight to Lu Xuan.

Zhao Sheng slightly raised his head, looked at Lu Xuan who was sitting on horseback, and then spoke.

"Mr. Xuan, this is the Profound Bird Guard’s headquarters in the White Dao Prefecture city."

"The old friend you wish to see, Mr. Li Yanran, is likely inside."

Lu Xuan glanced at the entrance of the residence ahead. There were two rows of men in light white Profound Bird uniforms standing on both sides of the gate, all of whom were Martial Artists in the Flesh Refining Realm.

The Profound Bird Guard is indeed extraordinary; even Martial Artists in the Flesh Refining Realm are merely gatekeepers.

Have we finally arrived?

They should have reached here three days ago, but due to Lu Xuan carrying wounds, they had stayed in Taiping Town for some time.

Lu Xuan waited until the wound on his chest had completely healed, leaving no trace, before leaving Taiping Town and heading to White Dao Prefecture city.

This monstrous healing speed astonished Zhao Sheng and his companions.

Of course, not only Zhao Sheng and his two companions found it incredible, but even Lu Xuan felt he was gradually transcending the realm of humanity.

Then, Zhao Sheng and his companions boldly led Lu Xuan into the Profound Bird Guard’s residence.

Completely forgetting that entering or exiting the Profound Bird Guard’s residence requires identification.

The Profound Bird Guards stationed on both sides of the gate did not react as Lu Xuan, a stranger, walked in, as if they saw nothing.

They weren’t fools.

Having three Yellow-level Profound Bird Guards personally lead the way, and in such a humble manner, showed how significant the visitor’s identity was.

Deep within the Profound Bird Guard’s residence, in a solemn and secluded courtyard surrounded by lush greenery, a few ancient towering trees stood tall.

In the middle of the courtyard stood a small pavilion.

Inside the pavilion were two figures, seated by a stone table.

One was a woman in a blue-green Profound Bird uniform, with a seductive figure and long slender legs that were elegantly crossed, giving her an ethereal appearance.

The other was an elder in a dark green Profound Bird uniform, his robe fluttering. He appeared to be around sixty or seventy years old.

The elder, with his silver hair tied into a Taoist knot with a jade hairpin, had a long white beard that danced gently in the wind, giving him an air of immortality and neatness.

"Yanran, your Martial Arts Realm has reached its peak and is about to break through to the Blood Refining Realm Perfection, right?"

"It seems it’s time to return to Tiandu."

"The five-yearly opportunity to understand the family artifact is less than a year away."

"By then, I believe you will have broken through to Blood Refining Realm Perfection, and that opportunity will undoubtedly be yours."

"It’s been a long time since I’ve returned to the family; this time, I’ll take you with me back to Tiandu."

The elder looked at Li Yanran with satisfaction, his old hand stroking the white beard on his chin.

Not a bad feat for his brother’s daughter, reaching near Blood Refining Realm Perfection at the age of twenty-five.

It seems it won’t take long before Li Yanran breaks through to the Inner Qi Realm and ascends to the same Martial Arts Realm as him.

Upon hearing this, Li Yanran appeared a bit startled, doubting if she had heard correctly.

"Mr. Feng, if you return to Tiandu with me, who will oversee the Profound Bird Guard in White Dao Prefecture?"

Li Chengfeng paused in stroking his chin’s white beard, confidently spoke.

"No worries, I’ll be back in less than two months."

"Moreover, two deputy envoys remain in White Dao Prefecture. I intend to have Deputy Envoy Yu Hong take charge temporarily."

Hearing that Deputy Envoy Yu Hong would be in charge instead of her Mr. Feng, Li Yanran was reassured.

Because those two deputy envoys are also at the Inner Qi Realm.

"Yes, Mr. Feng, if it’s under those two deputy envoys, it indeed is enough." Li Yanran said as her mind seemed to remember something, then continued.

"However, I once promised a master of the Inner Qi Realm to wait for him here in White Dao Prefecture before returning to Tiandu!"

"Hmm?"

"A master of the Inner Qi Realm?"

"Why have I never heard you mention this?"

"Who is this master, and is he currently in White Dao Prefecture city?"

Upon hearing Li Yanran’s words, Li Chengfeng widened his eyes and nearly pulled out the white beard on his chin with a startled grab of his hand.

A Martial Artist of the Inner Qi Realm was no small matter and warranted Li Chengfeng’s attention.

In White Dao Prefecture city, other than the Profound Bird Guard, only two individuals are known to be at the Inner Qi Realm.

These are the old gang leader of the Celestial Sea Gang, Hua Tianhai, and the Prefect of White Dao Prefecture, Hong Zhi!

The Prefect of White Dao Prefecture, Mr. Hong, is unlikely the one, as he could easily visit the Profound Bird Guard’s residence.

Could it be that the master Li Yanran mentioned is the old gang leader Hua Tianhai?

"No, the master of the Inner Qi Realm is not in White Dao Prefecture city but practices secluded meditation elsewhere."

As the family artifact opportunity approached, Li Chengfeng cared less about the mysterious master of the Inner Qi Realm, instead focusing gravely on the matter with Li Yanran.

"Is that so?"

"Yanran, time is running short. When is that master of the Inner Qi Realm coming? We can’t delay the family’s major matters."

"The opportunity to enter the ancestral shrine and understand the artifact is crucial for your future breakthrough to the Inner Qi Realm."

Li Chengfeng’s words made Li Yanran contemplate for a moment before responding.

"Then I will wait ten days. If that master hasn’t arrived, I will return to the family."

Li Yanran decided to prioritize the greater good, as the family artifact is crucial to her breakthrough to Inner Qi, allowing no room for mistakes.

"Hmm, that’s good!"

"Don’t worry, Yanran. If that master of the Inner Qi Realm comes here, I will have Deputy Envoy Yu Hong treat him well."

At this moment, a figure appeared outside the courtyard, hurrying towards the pavilion.

"Greetings Master Xuan, Mr. Li."

"At the front hall, someone claiming to be Mr. Li’s old friend is requesting to see you."

"Old friend?"

Hearing this, Li Yanran looked puzzled.

She came to White Dao Prefecture from Tiandu to train; how could she have any old friends here?

Suddenly, Li Yanran’s heart skipped a beat.

She remembered the young master of the Lu Family in Qingyun County, and a trace of delight appeared on her fair and delicate face.

On the side, Li Chengfeng, upon seeing the smile on Li Yanran’s face, was also taken aback.

His aged eyes almost popped out, looking incredibly astonished and feeling it was incredible.

"Mr. Xuan, please take a seat; I’ve already sent someone to inform Mr. Li Yanran."

Zhao Sheng warmly guided Lu Xuan to sit down, introducing Lu Xuan to some aspects of the Profound Bird Guard.

Behind him, Qian Hao, with both hands holding an exquisite teacup, cautiously presented it to Lu Xuan.

"Please, Mr. Xuan, this is the finest tea from our Profound Bird Guard; please enjoy!"
