C895 Helpless to Take a Detour

Thinking about it, Du Qi could not help worrying about his own fate. At the same time, he sympathized with Woo Kai's situation and said helplessly, "As long as boss is willing, I have nothing to say!"

Woo Kai hurriedly said, "Alright, then we will make a deal. No matter what, we cannot have second thoughts. We must work together to fight against fate and fight for freedom!"

Du Qi swore, "We cannot have second thoughts. We must work together to fight against fate and fight for freedom!"

Woo Kai smiled with satisfaction and said, "One word from the king."

Looking at Woo Kai's smile, Du Qi suddenly felt like he had been fooled. Maybe Woo Kai did not have the intention to subdue him. The purpose of roping him in was to pull him along to fight Woo Jifeng and his future master. He wanted to obtain the greatest benefits and power, even if he could not achieve his wish. He had to make his life a little more comfortable! However, Du Qi was willing to take the bait, so he said without hesitation, "It's a promise that cannot be followed!"

Obviously, Woo Kai's goal seemed to have been achieved, and his expression became much more relaxed and amiable. He said with a friendly smile, "Brother, please come in. They have been waiting for a long time."

It turned out that they had already arrived at the entrance of the Black Tortoise Courtyard. It was only because the two of them were discussing important matters that they did not enter in time. Now that the matter had been settled, there was naturally no need to stand outside the courtyard anymore.

The first place to enter the Black Tortoise Courtyard was a large hall. Woo Kai's seventy-two personal disciples were kneeling in the middle of the hall. Du Qi saw that there were men, women, old and old among the seventy-two people. The oldest was at least seventy years old. The youngest was only twelve or thirteen years old, so their cultivation levels were naturally different. Perhaps it was because they had not obtained the key points or the entire cultivation method, their cultivation levels were not high overall. It might be possible to rely on them to compete in the pugilistic world, but it was still not enough to gain a foothold in the Cultivation World. If they relied on their strength to fight against Woo Jifeng and his future master, it was simply impossible!

Under Woo Kai's guidance, his seventy-two personal disciples met with Du Qi one after another. People called him uncle master, and he was very respectful. Du Qi responded to them one by one. According to their cultivation bases, everyone felt that they had benefited a lot from encouraging and encouraging them one by one. They couldn't help but admire Du Qi even more, and they seemed to respect him even more. Even Woo Kai, who was listening from the side, had benefited greatly. They were glad that they had invited Du Qi to meet with all the disciples.

The next morning, Du Qi bid farewell to Woo Kai and the others and headed straight to Jiujiang.

As there was still plenty of time, Du Qi was not in a hurry to travel. He walked slowly on the mountain road like he was looking for an ordinary person.

Not long after he left Secluded Mountain Manor, Du Qi arrived at a fork in the road. Just as he was about to take the left road to Jiujiang, he suddenly heard someone say in a domineering manner, "This road is blocked, please take the right road!"

After refining the Purple Palace Nascent Soul, Du Qi was able to kill Dugu Wendao with a single move. He was no longer afraid of any martial artists, but he was still very careful along the way. He had not noticed anyone close to him, and when he heard this, he could not help but be secretly shocked. He hurriedly looked towards the source of the sound and saw that there was a large tree at the corner of the left road in front of him. An old man with a wide robe and a relaxed expression was standing quietly under a large tree. He had white hair and a youthful face.

Looking at that old man, Du Qi's eyes couldn't help but narrow. He couldn't help but feel a surge of palpitations in his heart. That old man was clearly right in front of him. However, Du Qi still couldn't sense the existence of the old man. It was obvious that the old man wasn't an ordinary figure. He was a man with a profound cultivation base, and with his current cultivation base... He could not see through the old man's cultivation base at all. He didn't know why such a figure would appear and block the way? Moreover, it was inconvenient for him to ask any more questions, and it was even more inconvenient for him to barge in. Thus, he could only follow the old man's instructions and turn to the right path.

He took the left path and could directly reach Jiujiang, but the right path was horizontal, and it was getting further and further away from Jiujiang. If he wanted to find another way to Jiujiang, he would have to take a detour of more than twenty miles.

No matter what, no one was willing to take a detour. Du Qi naturally did not want to take more detours. He reckoned that he had already left the old man's line of sight. Du Qi leapt onto the top of the tree, intending to go straight to the Jiujiang from the top of the tree. However, he didn't go straight ahead. Instead, he flew sideways. In an instant, he moved back, and then drifted away again. Only after six or seven times did Du Qi stop and look forward steadily. He smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, why are you making things difficult for me?"

It turned out that just as Du Qi jumped onto the top of the tree, he saw the old man blocking the way leisurely standing on top of a big tree. It just happened to block his path, and Du Qi wanted to snatch it from the old man's side. Who knew that the old man would follow him as soon as he moved? No matter how he changed his position, his movement was slow and fast. The old man was always in front of him, preventing him from passing... Du Qi had no choice but to stop and ask.

The old man stood at the top of the tree leisurely, as if he had already blended into his surroundings. His expression was neither sad nor happy, and there was no ripple on his face. He calmly stared at Du Qi's face. He did not answer Du Qi's question. He only said indifferently, "This road is not open. Please take the right road!"

Du Qi saw that the old man did not want to say more. He knew that it was difficult to get the answer he wanted, and he could not bypass the old man to take a shortcut. He could only float down to the top of the tree and honestly take the right road forward.

After crossing a mountain beam and arriving at another fork in the road, Du Qi was about to take the left road to Jiujiang when he suddenly heard someone say faintly, "This road is blocked, please take the right road!"

Du Qi looked over and saw the old man who blocked the way earlier standing not far away from the left road, looking at him calmly and indifferently, blocking his way.

Du Qi was not happy that he was stopped, and he blamed him for failing. He jumped onto the top of the tree and tried to take a shortcut, but he was still blocked by the old man. He tried his best to take a detour several times but failed. Du Qi had no choice but to follow the path that the old man pointed at.

It was like eight times. Every time Du Qi reached a fork in the road and wanted to go straight to Jiujiang, he would be stopped by the old man. Du Qi had no choice but to take a detour.

After another mountain ridge, he arrived at another fork in the road. However, he did not see the old man stop him. Du Qi actually felt a little disappointed. While secretly relieved, he could not help but laugh at himself for being born cheap. It would be uncomfortable if no one came to look for trouble. Therefore, he set foot on the left road and headed straight to the Jiujiang.

Not far away, Du Qi felt the murderous aura in the forest ahead. It was obvious that there were many people hiding in the forest!

"Trap, this must be a trap targeted at me!" Just as he felt the killing intent in the forest ahead, Du Qi had this thought in his mind. Although he was not afraid of those people from the pugilistic world surrounding and killing him now, his heart was hanging on to his promise with Looh Miaoer. However, he did not want to cause trouble. He thought that it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble. Just as he was about to quietly move away from those people and walk around in a roundabout way, suddenly, he remembered that the old man had deliberately lured him here. Could it be that the old man had set a trap here to kill him?

After thinking about it, Du Qi realized that something was wrong. With the old man's cultivation base, if he wanted to harm him, there was no need for him to go through so much trouble. He couldn't even reach this place. Could it be that the old man had another purpose in luring him here?
