Longevity, starting from being a chicken raising servant-Chapter 394 - 26 Chaos_2

Chapter 394: Chapter 26 Chaos_2

That’s precisely where Master Shen Fu is.

Li Ji quickly strode over.

However, he had not taken more than a few steps.

Hums!

Clang!

Sudden noises echoed in his ears!

Li Ji was shocked!

A sense of crisis instantly overwhelmed him!

Without a second thought, he activated the magic tools on his body, a reaction honed after multiple encounters with formidable enemies on the frontline of Wei State.

In an instant, around seven or eight top grade Class II magic tools enveloped Li Ji in a light.

At the same time, several magic tools and talisman glows were hurled towards him from all directions.

Moreover, a rope was thrown directly at his head.

But it was blocked by a magic device around Li Ji and bounced back.

“Fellow cultivators, be careful! This Thief Cultivator is ferocious with numerous magic tools! Do not approach, let’s first deplete his mana!”

A deep voice shouted.

Li Ji’s heart tightened as his spiritual sense swiftly unfolded and noticed that he was surrounded by the figures of more than ten cultivators from the three major sects!

“What is going on?”

A mix of confusion and annoyance filled Li Ji’s heart.

If he had not activated his magic tool on time, he would have likely been severely injured and captured by now!

But the key question was, why did these people attack him?

“It’s him! He’s definitely an Incense-burning Dao Cultivator! Grab him!”

A somewhat sharp voice suddenly sounded nearby.

Looking towards the sound, Li Ji was stunned to see the elder Earth Cultivator he had spoken to earlier standing not far away, pointing at him and shouting loudly.

Everything clicked into place in that moment.

His anger soared.

“Wretched woman, you’ll pay!”

The magic tools around him began to vibrate rapidly, quickly forming seven rays of light above him, flickering unpredictably.

The Earth Cultivator immediately turned pale, instinctively retreating backward.

Meanwhile, the cultivators from the three sects began swarming his way.

“You dare, thief!”

“Everybody, take him down!”

Coming to his senses, Li Ji hastily shouted, “Everyone! There’s a misunderstanding! I’m Li Ji, a guest officer of the House of Prince Gao of Chu Dynasty, here to meet Master Shen…”

“Impudent Incense-burning Dao Thief Cultivator, daring to impersonate a national guest and plot against Master Shen, seize him!”

The leading cultivator did not believe a word and immediately made accusations.

With a wave of his hand, the cultivators of the three sects were all ready with their magic tools, talismans, and spells, poised to strike.

Li Ji’s face turned grim.

“These bastards! They can’t tell right from wrong!” freēnovelkiss.com

He hastily activated his flying magic tool, trying to escape by air. However, he soon discovered that a Locking Sky Array had already been set up above Yong’an City. It was impossible for anyone under the Golden Core stage to fly out.

“Damn it!”

Li Ji was both anxious and furious.

The last thing he expected was to run into such a predicament while merely helping his uncle fetch some chicken essence.

To be honest, he was never in such a tight spot, even on the frontlines of Wei State.

“Stop resisting! Withdraw your mana from your magic tools! If we strike together, you’ll surely die!”

The lead cultivator from the three sects shouted.

Li Ji assessed the cultivators surrounding him, his heart torn.

If he gave up his resistance, he couldn’t trust these people.

But if he didn’t…

At that moment.

“Huh?”

Li Ji was slightly taken aback.

To his surprise, the cultivators from the three sects seemed to have received some kind of instruction, as they suddenly put away their magic tools and talismans.

“What’s going on?”

Li Ji was a bit bewildered.

Even the leading cultivator had a somewhat unpleasant look on his face; he shot a harsh glance at the Earth Cultivator nearby, then walked towards Li Ji.

After sizing up Li Ji and lingering his gaze on the magic tools around him, he finally spoke:

“You’re quite impressive, being able to make Master Shen himself speak for you.”

“However…”

A touch of coldness flashed in the sect cultivator’s eyes:

“Speak when needed and mind your tongue when you should.”

But Li Ji didn’t care about his threats all; his attention was entirely focused on the former part of his sentence.

“So it was Fellow Cultivator Shen who saved me.”

Li Ji finally understood.

He couldn’t help but feel amazed:

“I didn’t expect Fellow Cultivator Shen to have such a strong reputation in this city that even these sect cultivators had to give him face.”

Although he is now serving the House of Prince Gao of Chu, he initially was a Rogue Cultivator from the Yan state. He only later landed a guest officer position in the House of Prince Gao, thanks to his uncle.

Even so, he mostly roamed around the borders of Chu and Yan.

Hence, he was very familiar with the situation in Yan state.

He fully understood how challenging it was to make these sect cultivators obey.

By now, the cultivators of the sects had also dispersed.

Li Ji quickly proceeded towards the mansion entrance.

Unlike earlier, there were no sect cultivators guarding the door. Maybe because there were people from the three sects on every corner of the street.

Li Ji went ahead and was about to knock on the door.

However, the door opened slowly on its own.

Just then, a spirited figure appeared at the door, greeting him.

“Fellow Cultivator Li, you must be exhausted. My Dao Companion is still in seclusion, but he will come out soon. Please wait a moment.”

“No worries at all.”

Li Ji hurriedly replied.

He recognized this female cultivator; she was Shen’s Dao Companion.

Guided by her, he quickly arrived at a quiet room and was served tea.

After not a long wait, a hearty laughter sounded close by.

“Fellow Cultivator Li, sorry for the trouble.”

One figure entered the room.

“Fellow Cultivator Shen!”

Seeing this person, Li Ji immediately showed a hint of a smile, and then conceded:
