Empress: My Husband Killed The Immortal Emperor After 10 Years Of Seclusion - Chapter 23

Chapter 23 Strange Creature Mine

Li Xuan looked up at the sky outside the window. Looking at the silver moon and the dark night, he suppressed his anticipation and returned to his bed.

If not for the fact that it was too late, he would have been impatient to buy these materials.

Taking a deep breath, Li Xuan sat cross-legged and began to circulate his blood essence to strengthen his body.

His strength had already reached the eighth level of the Body Refining Realm. He could already be considered a small expert in the White Cloud City because most sect masters were only at this level.

Coupled with Li Xuan’s true combat strength, he could kill a tenth level Body Refining black wolf King. He was already one of the strongest experts in White Cloud City.

Therefore, Li Xuan felt the more important it was to take in disciples and looked forward to taking in more disciples.

“Let’s wait first. After I finish setting up, I’ll be able to find the disciples faster.”

Li Xuan muttered as he circulated his blood essence. He used God View to lock onto Qin Yue, who was living in the neighboring room.

Seeing that she was putting medicinal herbs into the bathtub, Li Xuan hurriedly looked away into the distance.

Soon, he locked onto another tall figure, Xing’er.

At this moment, Xing’er was in the residence beside the White Cloud Escort Agency. She was buying a residence with money and seemed like she was determined to be guarding Qin Yue at all times.

This responsible attitude was enough to prove how much Xing’er valued Qin Yue.

“Forget it, I’ll cultivate first. I’ll find a deserted place tomorrow and set up more blood avatars.”

Li Xuan muttered and closed his eyes. He continued to circulate his blood essence and strengthen his body.

Time passed and the second day arrived in the blink of an eye.

In the morning, the fresh air blew the green grass. Transparent dew bloomed in the grass, refracting beautiful light under the sun.

Li Xuan walked out of the house early. After confirming that it was safe through the God View, he bought a residence in the corner of the city wall and made a large number of blood avatars.

Since his headquarters was in the White Cloud City, Li Xuan naturally had to plan well. He could not be careless at all. Only by distributing his avatars to the entire White Cloud City would he be truly safe.

Considering that the blood avatars were too similar to him and his family and the people he knew all lived in this city…

Li Xuan could only get his blood avatars to destroy their appearances by giving themselves saber marks, sword marks, and injuries. In short, they were only released after they changed their faces.

“Main body, the appearances of all the blood avatars have been changed.” blood avatar 500 bowed with many blood avatars.

“Yes, I’ll give you this set of clothes and this money. Set it up well and buy whatever you need. Run it well.” Li Xuan ordered.

“Yes! Main body!”

blood avatar 500 immediately nodded. After changing his clothes, he rushed out with the money and bought clothes and food in batches from various shops.

Next, the avatars joined the various large factions, martial arts schools, and officials with various identities. Some even went to other cities to hide.

Li Xuan was very satisfied with this approach. He felt as if his subconscious was doing the work for him.

What surprised Li Xuan even more was that he discovered that he could directly control the blood avatars.

In other words, his control over the blood avatars was extremely high. It was also very unbelievable that he could see the scene of the other cities through the blood avatars.

“This ability is really too abnormal. If I use it well, I can easily control an entire country.”

Li Xuan muttered to himself as he walked towards the escort agency. On the way, he bought some materials he needed for the seal.

However, just as he walked to the entrance of the escort agency, he saw the people from the escort agency gathered and whispering.

“Master, you’re back.”

Qin Yue was waiting near the door. When she saw Li Xuan return, she hurriedly ran to Li Xuan’s side and held his hand tightly, as if she was very afraid that Li Xuan would abandon her.

“Did something happen at home? Why are they all gathered together?” Li Xuan touched Qin Yue’s little head and asked curiously.

“Master, I heard from Sister Cui’er that the officials released an announcement today saying that the strange creatures are up to something in the White Cloud Mine outside the city.”

“The officials are offering a reward of 100,000 taels of silver for whoever can kill the strange creatures,” Qin Yue said seriously.

“Strange creatures?!”

When Li Xuan heard this, his expression became very solemn.

Strange creatures were different from polluted creatures. These fellows were even more terrifying and had unbelievable abilities. Even the lowest-level strange creature was not easy to deal with.

The key was that their abilities were too unbelievable. Many of their abilities were unsolvable.

For example, some strange creatures were very difficult to kill. Their recovery ability was abnormal to the extreme. Unless one used a specific item, they could not kill the strange creatures.

Some strange creatures were even immune to fire damage and would not be injured even in the flames.

On the other hand, some of them were immune to physical damage. No matter how powerful a Body Refining Realm martial artist was, they could not kill it.

These strange creatures were also the nightmare of martial artists. Only the legendary immortal cultivators could kill them.

Now that the city had announced that they were going to kill the strange creatures, it meant that even the officials were helpless.

“Master! Sister Cui’er said that many people from the government have died in the mine. She also said that the strange creatures are expanding.”

“If this continues, White Cloud City might be implicated. The officials were very worried, so they made an announcement.”

Qin Yue said softly and was somewhat worried.

The terror of the strange creatures had already entered their hearts. Ordinary people were simply unwilling to provoke the strange creatures. Even martial artists were very afraid of the strange creatures.

Now, the strange creatures were expanding and might affect White Cloud City. This was also a huge danger to the citizens living in the

city.

“Don’t worry, there will be a way.”

Li Xuan activated the God View and quickly looked in the direction of the White Cloud Mine.

The White Cloud Mine was in the south of White Cloud City, about ten kilometers away from White Cloud City. Li Xuan could only see half of the mine from his God View.

There were no strange creatures in this half of the mine. He could only see that the mine had become very different. The entire terrain was distorted.

At the same time, an unknown white mist enveloped the mine. This white mist was rolling and expanding bit by bit.

According to this situation, the white mist might affect White Cloud City in about a month.

“A month? There’s still time. I can use this period of time to quickly increase my strength. Also, I have Xing’er, my Dao Protector.”

Li Xuan muttered to himself and narrowed his eyes as he looked at the small courtyard next door. Xing’er was sitting cross-legged and bathing in the morning light.

Li Xuan was unable to see through Xing’er’s strength. However, since she was Qin Yue’s early-stage Dao Protector, she definitely had some strength. It shouldn’t be difficult for her to destroy the strange creatures.

Li Xuan was still relatively at ease. Moreover, there was still a month left. At that time, his strength would also increase by a lot. At most, he would just relocate his entire family.

In addition, the officials should have already requested the Great Xia Imperial Court for help. However, he did not know why they still issued an announcement.

Li Xuan frowned tightly and did not understand what was going on. He decided to not think about this first and consider helping Qin Yue increase her strength.

“Let’s go. Don’t worry about this first. Come back to the house with me.”

With that said, Li Xuan pulled Qin Yue’s hand and walked towards his room.
