BXBX NOVEL Chapter 365
“No. All I feel is at the Qi Emperor is someone who has managed to connect with a Heavenly law of thunder at the very least. He may even be a Multiple Heavenly law user; in which case we need to run for our life. You are still far away from the peak of Qi King. You would at least need a Chaos law to compete with such an entity.
“I think you are overestimating the guy’s power. The only possible person within Mad-lions who can connect with Heavenly Law must be the third brother. Is he that powerful?” Li Meng didn’t believe that he couldn’t compete with a newbie Heavenly law-holding emperor.
“You need to confront him if you desire the answer, do you wish to do that.” The Keeper asked. Li Meng’s face turned gray as she rushed towards the forest regions.
“Split up.” Li Meng wanted to hunt some more bandits and the only way to do so was to direct the Qi Emperor to a particular location while killing the rest of the group accompanying him.
“How do you wish to attract his attention?” The Keeper enquired.
Li Meng suddenly came to a halt and started to use his Qi. He then used all his body cultivation, along with Thunder and fire heavenly laws, to blast an attack in the direction which he suspected the emperor to be approaching from. The area in te4h line of attack was completely decimated as the attack made its way towards the enemy.
“And that will attract his attention towards you.”
.....
“It should. Since he is someone who has connected with Thunder Heavenly laws, he should be able to sense that the law I used was also Heavenly law. That should pique his interest in me as a powerful Qi king. The rest of the result could only be left to fate.”
Li Meng rushed deeper into the forest by using the power of wind laws and all his movement arts. Body cultivation came into play during his time too, as much of the force was concentrated on the legs.
“Use the earthen laws, as it will help you navigate through this forest region better. Always try to use earthen law while on the ground.” Li Meng followed the keeper’s instructions and to his surprise, he did manage to increase his speed by quite a bit. He was using a modification of the flash step. It was the pseudo-movement art that he had created.

Lion Shi was resting in his room when he heard the sudden alarm of the base blaring at a distance. As he made his way towards the meeting, hall servants came in reporting that one of their outposts was under heavy attack on the western side. He was surprised to see that a new force had come into play so soon.
“Are you sure that it is a new force and not one which is under us?” Lion Tu, the second brother asked.
“I am quite sure. The last purge which I carried out in the eastern borders shouldn’t be a blurred memory so soon. They wouldn’t dare take such steps.”
“You have to agree that the western border is an ideal target since we majorly concentrate on the easter side.” Lion Tu said.
“If my analysis is correct, our base can only be destroyed by two kinds of power. One which is extremely large and well-coordinated. They managed to mark so many attack spots at such diverse locations, which meant that they were serious about their attack strategy. They are planning something big.”
“The second possibility is a bit of a catch as it would mean that a very powerful cultivator, one who is in the Qi Emperor realm has attacked. But why would such a figure attack us so covertly.”
“So this is an attack by a group of people.”
“Yes. I have a plan. Take our man and rush towards the western borders. Don’t return until you have completely calmed the situation down there.”
“Elder brother will stay here and guard our main base.”
“I, on the other hand, will push towards the eastern side. I suspect that the next attack is going to happen on this site. The group responsible for this has plotted well.”
“My me are sure that the attacks on the eastern bases were by city forces. Multiple bodies of cultivators from the city were found. I even had them identified by our contacts within the city. This group suddenly vanished in daylight at the same time. Someone within the city must have orchestrated it. I am sure that the men were prominent cultivators within the city.”
“That may be the case. But we do need to keep an open mind. Sometimes the situation isn’t exactly describable by its look. There might be a deeper meaning to all of this.”
Lion Shi had been exhausted by the continuous pile of work that the organization presented him, but as its top warrior and controller, he had to stand up for it. Something told him that the situation wasn’t exactly what it looked like.
He immediately rushed towards the eastern outposts.
To his surprise and elation, there was a blast at a nearby outpost. His guess was right. The attack was on the eastern borders and near their base. If he wasn’t wrong, the pattern showed them attacking the base next.
“Not if I disrupt their plans.” He immediately raised his hands. His law body which he recently gained after breakthrough the Qi Emperor level came into action. A massive amount of Qi flowed out of his body and took the form of a massive Qi cloud. He then directed it towards the base and lowered his hands.
Clouds immediately blasted the surrounding area and destroyed what remained of the base.
He saw the group separating and rushing in a different direction.
“It is a smart move.” He agreed that it was the best idea for now. Even he couldn’t cover the whole area. He signaled his subordinates to follow them and he was about to decide the direction when he felt an attack coming towards him.
The attack was powerful, and he could even feel a push after it made contact. It didn’t feel like an attack from a Qi Emperor, but a Qi King. Yet the power was great enough to force him back ten steps. He could even feel multiple Heavenly laws from the attacks.
“Interesting.” Lion Shi smiled as if he had just found his prey.
