Original God, I, the prince of Liyue, do not want to inherit the throne
Chapter 17 Arrest
The cold sword was hanging around his neck. The fear in the burly man's eyes and the sweat on his body made him dare not move. The voice in his ear said like a devil:
"Hey, isn't this Mr. Zhao's guard? What are you doing in my friend's room so late at night?"
The burly man's eyes were bloodshot, and his spirit had been stretched to the limit after being frightened repeatedly. With the sword on his neck, his body strength couldn't help but relax, and the knife in his hand fell.
Seeing the knife fall, Ye Li kicked it far away, preventing the other party from using the weapon to fight back.
The burly man relaxed a little, but when the boy's voice next to his ear immediately reminded him of Ye Li, who he had hacked to death not long ago, his face suddenly turned pale and his spirit tensed up again.
"You...are you a human or a ghost?!"
A hoarse voice came out of his mouth, and the burly man said in fear.
Ye Li showed a kind smile on his face. Standing behind the burly man, he whispered softly in his ear:
"What do you think?"
The sound that expanded with a trace of elemental power from his mouth kept echoing in the room, creating an ethereal response effect. The ghostly sound made the burly man's nerves broken. His eyes rolled back and he passed out.
Looking at the blood on the burly man's face caused by the sword, Ye Li let Ganyu in from the window with a bored look on his face and used the element of ice to treat the wound on the man's face.
On the other side, Zhao Li, who was eagerly waiting for the burly man to tie the girl up, had an ominous premonition in his heart, but he suppressed it.
"Why hasn't Li San brought the person here yet? Is he trying to make the young master wait impatiently?"
A scarred man next to Zhao Li was leaning against the wall with an impatient look on his face, expressing his dissatisfaction with the guy who was dragging his feet in doing the kidnapping.
Zhao Li didn't say anything, but the uneasy feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
On the roof of the inn, Li San was awakened by a hard slap in the face.
Seeing Ye Li jumping around, Li San was so frightened that he knelt down and kowtowed, saying:
"Ah, don't look for me, go find Zhao Li, he sent me here, and he also wants me to arrest the girl next to you!"
Li San cried and shouted, looking like a repentant man, and his head was bleeding.
At this time, Gan Yu, who was standing next to Ye Li, looked at the guy who kept kowtowing in front of him. All the sympathy in his eyes disappeared, leaving only boredom and disgust.
"Alright, alright, don't bother with those guys. We already have the intelligence we need, and this guy in front of us is of no use anymore."
After saying that, Ye Li killed the burly man with a sword under his horrified gaze, allowing him to be a good person in his next life.
Looking at the corpse that had been buried in the sand, Ganyu remained calm. After all, she had followed Ye Li to fight the demon god, so this scene did not have much impact on her.
After casually killing one of the enemy's men, Ye Li and Gan Yu quickly ran and jumped above the roof, looking like the chivalrous knights who could fly over the eaves and walls in vernacular novels.
Ye Li hurried along while looking at some of the evidence in his hand, and said:
"Oh my, Zhao Li has done so many sneaky things. This little evidence is enough to put him in the Qianyan Army prison for hundreds of years."
"According to the law, people like this who exploit loopholes in the contract will be executed," Ganyu said coldly.
"Okay, let's go collect some evidence nearby and catch that guy."
After Ye Li finished speaking, he and Gan Yu came to several secret locations. These were some of the Zhao family’s properties. Some of the houses contained hidden evidence of how the other party had exploited loopholes in the contract to defraud Mora.
Half an hour later, Ye Li and Gan Yu arrived at the Qianyan Army's office. They used magic to put the evidence in, left a one-time voice token, and then went to Zhao Li's secret place.
After waiting for two full hours, the moon was about to set. Zhao Li could no longer suppress the ominous premonition in his heart, and said to the guard next to him:
"That guy hasn't come back for too long, I'm afraid he's in trouble, let's go!"
Zhao Li decisively chose to run away, but after waiting for a long time, it was too late.
At this time, Ye Li was already holding a long sword in his hand. He kicked open the door of the house and broke into Zhao Li's hidden house with anger and a fierce expression in his eyes.
"Zhao Li! You treacherous villain, if I hadn't reacted in time, my friend would have suffered at your hands. Come out and die!"
Ye Li's voice was so loud that the two people in the room could hear it clearly. This made Zhao Li's expression darken, and a fierce look flashed in his eyes. He looked at the guard next to him.
The guard understood what he meant and took out a big knife, while Zhao Li took out a crossbow from the room, which was a continuous-fire crossbow.
Due to Ye Li's arrival, mechanical engineering has become commonplace among the people of Guiliji. Some wealthy families will also invite some accomplished masters of mechanical engineering to design some mechanisms for self-defense.
The rapid-fire crossbow is a mechanism that can be made by many masters of mechanical engineering.
Not only is it lightweight, it is also powerful enough to poke a hole in an ordinary person's hand within 20 meters.
However, the use of this kind of dangerous weapon is expressly prohibited in the current Guiliji Code. Unless there is a license for use, once discovered by the Qianyan Army, a fine is a small matter, but going to jail is a serious incident.
Ye Li's figure kicking the door in was just seen by the two people coming out. Zhao Li raised the crossbow in his hand without hesitation and immediately pulled the switch.
The arrow flew out with a swish, and the arrowhead reflecting the cold light was particularly bright under the moonlight.
Ye Li is now solving this problem as a mortal. Since he cannot use powers beyond those of mortals, his sword skills are neat and agile, as fast as the wind.
In the courtyard, several sword lights flashed under the moonlight, and Jiang Fei shot down the arrows one by one.
What a fast swordsmanship!
Zhao Li's expression changed, but he didn't stop his hand movements. He glanced towards the shadows and said:
"My friend, there must be a misunderstanding between us. Why do we have to draw swords as soon as we enter the door?"
"Misunderstanding? Your guards followed me all the way and wanted to kill me in the guest room. Tell me this is a misunderstanding!"
Ye Li's expression was cold, with anger in his eyes not concealed at all, and he swung his sword even faster.
With the sound of clinking, Ye Li quickly approached Zhao Li, while Zhao Li kept retreating between the houses.
Just as Ye Li was approaching a dark corner, the big knife was shining in the moonlight, and another guard who had been hiding for a long time in Zhao Li raised the knife with both hands and slashed at him.
This unexpected attack forced Ye Li to quickly block it with his sword.
With a clang! Ye Li was forced to retreat by the Scar Guard who was holding a knife in both hands. A cut was made on his arm and blood was flowing out.
Ye Li dodged the flying arrows at high speed, stepped back to a safe distance, held the sword tightly in his hand, and said solemnly:
"You are indeed prepared."
“It’s too late to find out now!”
Zhao Li sneered, with a smug look in his eyes, but he did not notice that a girl in the yard behind the house had pulled the bowstring and aimed at his guards.
The arrow cut through the sky and quickly pierced through the arm of Scar's guard, causing him to scream in pain.
Zhao Li's expression changed drastically. His attention had been on Ye Li before, and he almost forgot that there was a girl with him.
Gan Yu landed and came behind Ye Li, pulled the bowstring to its full length and aimed at Zhao Li, and said coldly:
"You'd better put down your weapon now, or you'll end up like the guy lying there wailing."
"Hehehehahahahaha!"
Seeing that the situation around him was not good, Zhao Li covered his face and laughed, staring at Ye Li with resentment and hatred in his eyes, and said:
"Okay, very good! I have fallen into your hands today, but before that, you will pay the price in blood!"
Listening to Zhao Li's nonsense, Gan Yu frowned. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Zhao Li take out a turquoise stone from his pocket and smash it hard on the ground.
The moment they saw the stone, Ganyu and Yeli's expressions changed.
The moment the stone collided with the ground, a green elemental force erupted, and the light gathered spread out, trying to cover Ye Li and the others.
Ye Li reacted quickly and pushed Ganyu out of range, and his whole body was illuminated by green light.
"Ye Li!" Gan Yu couldn't help but scream.
When the light faded, only the silhouettes of two people lying on the ground, motionless.
Gan Yu quickly went forward to check on Ye Li's condition and was relieved to see that he was just unconscious and asleep.
However, outside the courtyard, there were many footsteps and conversations among the Qianyan Army.
"This is the location the voice token said. Hurry, hurry, we must catch the criminal before he escapes."
Ganyu reached into her token and took out a piece of talisman paper. After lighting it, a formation appeared.
He picked up the sword that fell on the ground, carried Ye Li on his back, stepped into the formation and teleported away.
