As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 450: Chapter 178: The Completion of the Celestial Fire God Cannon, The Hunter Becomes the Hunted [Seeking Monthly Tickets]

“`

The rain drizzled unceasingly.

Within the courtyard.

Li Che’s five fingers gripped the Divine Armament Treasure Sword, his powerful qi and blood circulating and carving the Sixth-Order Spirit Wood. Sparks danced about, an unending odor of gunpowder filled the air.

This Fire God Raging Flood Dragon Wood is of too high a quality, making it not easy to carve.

If it weren’t for Li Che’s cultivation improving, his qi and blood becoming robust, his flesh becoming unparalleled, almost a half-step Great Grandmaster, he really might not be able to easily shave this piece of Spirit Wood.

After all, wood carving is a task of physical labor.

Li Che paid no attention to the Pavilion Master of the Hunting God Pavilion who stood on the rooftop of a high building, distorting wind and rain, constantly releasing Divine Sense to watch over the small courtyard.

The other party wanted to find a flaw, but in reality, what the Pavilion Master of the Hunting God Pavilion saw… was only what Li Che wanted him to see.

Merely illusions sketched out using the Heaven and Earth chessboard.

Unless he took action himself, he could not tear through this illusion.

Continually watching, he could only see the honest and diligent Li Che carving the wood.

And if Huang Xilong decided to make a move, then naturally, there would be no need for Li Che to keep up the disguise.

For three consecutive days.

Li Che’s days had become routine.

After clocking in at the Qintian Observatory for work during the day, he would go to the solitary workshop courtyard to polish and make the Fire God’s Furious Jiao Organ Cannon.

He would stop at times to cultivate his martial path, absorbing the divinity from the Six Ministries Divine Crystal, to steadily increase the maturity of the Immaculate Heart Taoist Fruit.

In the meantime.

Through the monitoring of the Heaven and Earth chessboard, Li Che could sense that the Pavilion Master of the Hunting God Pavilion, Huang Xilong’s intent to kill was getting increasingly intense.

Clearly, after seeing the honest and diligent Li Che for three days, Huang Xilong was finally starting to get impatient.

Once he confirmed that Li Che had no relation to the Bull Demon, he planned to assassinate Li Che.

It was to fulfill the assassination mission given by the Young Prince and retrieve some reputations.

Although the Hunting God Pavilion’s residency in Golden Light Prefecture City had disappeared, transformed into flat ground.

As the Pavilion Master of the Hunting God Pavilion, he was still alive.

And the Hunting God Pavilion wasn’t left with only him; over these days, members who had gone to other cities for investigation started to return.

While surveilling Li Che, Huang Xilong was also arranging for these people to carve out a new residency.

This time, he would be much more careful, ensuring that his assassins received and accepted their tasks more secretly.

When Li Che sensed the murderous aura presented by Huang Xilong’s chess piece, intense enough to nearly turn into black water.

He no longer stayed within the courtyard.

Instead, he changed locations, moving to the workshop within the Qintian Observatory.

This pissed Huang Xilong off.

The Qintian Observatory was not like the solitary workshop courtyard; there sat the real Divine Element True Person, Lu Yao.

Not only that, the Chief Supervisor Hu Yingyue, who liked to play the erhu, was no simple character either.

Huang Xilong’s initial plans to make his move immediately fell through.

But he did not give up, still watching Li Che from the outside.

He was gradually losing patience.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual about Li Che, just an honest and diligent man trying to carve wood and make money to support his family, Huang Xilong planned to end the life of this honest man.

The master assassin from his Hunting God Pavilion had failed.

But as a Divine Element True Person making the move personally, there was no possibility of failure.

…

…

In the City Lord’s Mansion.

The wind and rain slanted heavily, continuously pounding on the black roof tiles, at the turned tips, clearly defined droplets of rain scattered down.

Su Huaili sat in the courtyard, boiling tea and eating plums in the leisure pavilion.
