Fantasy Script: I Am Invincible As A Small Handyman At The Beginning!

In an instant.

Doubt, shock, confusion, and various emotions surged onto Old He's face.

Causing his complexion to become extremely colorful.

How could a mere late-stage Divine Sea realm expert possibly kill a powerful Qi Controlling Realm expert!

This completely exceeded Old He's understanding!

Old He had seen talented cultivators before, but even the most talented ones could only challenge higher realms, not kill powerful Qi Controlling Realm experts with the strength of a late-stage Divine Sea realm.

Challenging higher realms and killing higher realm experts were two completely different concepts.

At this moment, Old He felt that his worldview had been greatly overturned.

Or...

Could it be that the young man in front of him was not really at the late-stage Divine Sea realm?

And he was suppressing his cultivation level, pretending to be weak?

Various chaotic thoughts flooded Old He's mind.

"He Lao, this is the person who saved me, Xiao Ming," Li Jian Shi explained to Old He, then looked at Xiao Ming and said, "This is Old He."

Xiao Ming's gaze swept over.

Coincidentally meeting Old He's complex gaze.

"Brother Xiao, thank you for saving my young miss's life. On behalf of Lingxiao City, I am extremely grateful!" Although he was suspicious in his heart, Old He did not show it. Instead, he slightly bowed and sincerely said.

Regardless of Xiao Ming's secrets, the fact that he saved Li Jian Shi was undeniable, and Old He was very grateful for this.

"No need to be so polite. I just happened to pass by and saving Li Jian Shi was just a casual act," Xiao Ming said casually.

"Brother Xiao is righteous!" Old He sighed, "However, Brother Xiao, although you say it lightly, we cannot easily let this matter go. After all, it involves a life-saving favor."

"May I ask what Brother Xiao's plans are? If you have time, could you come with us to Lingxiao City and let us show our gratitude as hosts?"

After speaking.

Old He looked at Xiao Ming with a burning gaze, and he had already had the intention to recruit Xiao Ming.

If such a powerful Xiao Ming who could kill a Qi Controlling Realm expert joined Lingxiao City, the influence of his own city would greatly increase.

Even if he couldn't bring Xiao Ming under his command, it would be great to be friends.

At the same time.

In Li Jian Shi's beautiful eyes that were looking at Xiao Ming, a strong sense of anticipation emerged.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ming said, "Alright, I happen to be going to Lingxiao City for some business, so I'll trouble you all."

"No trouble at all, no trouble at all," Old He's face blossomed with a smile, "It is our fortune in Lingxiao City to be able to entertain a young talent like Brother Xiao."

"My city lord is most fond of making friends with heroes from all walks of life. If he hears about today's events, he will definitely be very happy."

Li Jian Shi, who was beside them, also showed a sweet smile.

Xiao Ming nodded slightly, then looked around and said, "This is not the place to talk. If there is nothing else, let's set off."

"Wait a moment, I still have some small matters to attend to," Old He apologized, then explained, "The guards who protected the young miss all died in battle. They were all loyal and devoted, and we cannot just leave their bodies in the wilderness."

"I have to bring their bodies back, and this is also the rule of our Lingxiao City."

Saying that, Old He's figure flickered and flew towards the bamboo forest several miles away.

That was where Xiao Ming and Ma Rulong had fought before, and the bodies of Li Jian Shi's guards were scattered in the bamboo forest.

It didn't take long.

Old He moved all the bodies of the guards onto the formation ship, arranging them neatly and spotlessly.

Seeing this.

Xiao Ming, who had already arrived on the airship, couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

To be honest, he was very surprised!

Because in the cruel world of cultivation, protective warriors like guards are simply not important. If they die, they die.

No one will help them collect their bodies.

Today, it was the first time they met.

Along with Xiao Ming's surprise, his favorable impression of Lingxiao City deepened.

As the saying goes, "The smallest details reveal the whole picture."

The fact that Elder He values his guards' bodies so much shows that Lingxiao City conducts itself in a righteous manner, at least towards its own people.

This is not common in the world of cultivation.

After Elder He finished all his tasks, Xiao Ming activated the true essence in his body and controlled the formation flying ship to speed forward.

The illusory wings on both sides of the formation flying ship gently flapped, and immediately, the ship shot forward like an arrow released from a bow.

Along the way, Elder He enthusiastically conversed with Xiao Ming, seemingly trying to uncover Xiao Ming's background.

Xiao Ming was also a shrewd person and did not reveal too much information, not even disclosing his identity as a disciple of the Heaven Supporting Sword Sect.

Before saving Li Jianshi, Xiao Ming deliberately changed out of the unique disciple attire of the Heaven Supporting Sword Sect and only wore a very ordinary set of clothes.

This completely concealed his identity.

In addition, through his conversation with Elder He, Xiao Ming also learned a lot of information about Lingxiao City.

For example, the powerful individuals who besieged Li Jianshi today are likely experts from the Sunset City. The three cities of Sunset City, Lingxiao City, and Ziguang City have their own grievances, which is why today's events occurred.

When it was dark outside, under Elder He's guidance, Xiao Ming controlled the formation flying ship and arrived above Lingxiao City.

Looking down, the entire city was brightly lit, with shops and vendors enthusiastically selling their goods on the streets. Powerful warriors mingled among ordinary people, making Lingxiao City appear quite prosperous.

After arriving in Lingxiao City, Xiao Ming first controlled the formation flying ship to land in a spacious area of the city, and then patiently waited for Elder He to handle the follow-up matters regarding the guards.

After everything was taken care of, Elder He led Xiao Ming and Li Jianshi to the most luxurious building in the city.

This was the City Lord's Mansion of Lingxiao City.

It didn't take long for Xiao Ming, led by Elder He, to meet the City Lord of Lingxiao City, Li Yunxiao.

Li Yunxiao was a middle-aged man in his forties. His face was like jade, exuding a heroic aura, and he even had a touch of handsomeness.

It was probably only because of this that he had such a beautiful daughter like Li Jianshi.

Li Yunxiao was a late-stage Qi Controlling Realm expert, a whole level higher than Xiao Ming in terms of cultivation level.

However, as soon as they met, Xiao Ming noticed that Li Yunxiao completely lacked the calm demeanor of a Qi Controlling Realm expert. He was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, anxiously pacing in place.

Only after seeing Li Jianshi did Li Yunxiao's emotions stabilize. He swiftly appeared in front of Li Jianshi and asked with concern, "My precious daughter! You're finally back. Are you okay? Why did you come back so late?"

Li Yunxiao bombarded her with questions like a machine gun.

"I'm fine, father. You worried too much," Li Jianshi obediently replied.

However, Li Yunxiao didn't believe her words because he keenly noticed that Li Jianshi had suffered some minor injuries.

Instinctively, he looked at Elder He.

"Elder He, tell me honestly, what happened on the way back?!" Li Yunxiao asked in a deep voice.
