As soon as they reached the offering table at the store's entrance, the Headless General on horseback pulled out his sword, initially pointing it at the White Crane True Monarch. Upon seeing the True Monarch following behind the young man like a guardian, the general turned the sword towards the boy.
This happened because the White Crane True Monarch didn't reveal his full aura, intentionally suppressing it. Otherwise, the general wouldn't dare remain so relaxed atop the horse.
The sword hummed slightly, and clusters of blue ghost fire extended from beneath the horse's hooves. The blocking ghost soldiers hurriedly stepped aside. This ghost fire spread over the ground and ultimately connected with the offering table at the shop's entrance, causing the candles on the table to flare up, turning blue.
The intention was clear: it demanded that the youth kowtow and submit to it personally.
Li Zhiyuan discerned from this act that it couldn't kill indiscriminately in Fengdu.
