Steam Era: The Lord of 'Puluo' Chapter 1465: Peeping Cultivation Above the Clouds

Guan Huodong thought he severely injured Li Banfeng, but the one who fell was just the Shadow, and the real Li Banfeng had already circled behind him.

If today someone else were here, once Li Banfeng circled behind them, they could only wait for their demise.

But Guan Huodong is special; his Taoist Sect is unique, and he is very familiar with this place. He knows Li Banfeng’s location and can deduce Li Banfeng’s intentions.

Li Qi is behind him, a meter away, holding a copper coin, which seems to be Li Qi’s weapon.

Guan Huodong has followed the Boss for a long time and knows a lot, especially as a Peeping Cultivator, he has seen the sign’s form.

He knows the sign within his body is a copper coin and knows the token in his body is very similar in shape to a copper coin.

What’s the origin of that Jin Qian’er in Li Qi’s hand?

No need to ponder much; this thing must be the token.

With Li Qi having the token and Guan Huodong having the sign within him, their situation is very clear; Li Qi holds Guan Huodong’s life in his hand.

Guan Huodong isn’t flustered; he sidesteps to stand behind a fisherman, using the fisherman to block Li Qi’s line of sight.

To make the token effective, the line of sight must remain on the adversary; it’s the basic condition for controlling the token. Only when the sight is concentrated enough does the token sense and use the sign to inflict severe harm on the opponent.

This is Guan Huodong’s judgment of the situation, also reflecting their difference in experience. Guan Huodong has been dominant in the Underground City for decades, poof!

Li Banfeng touched the copper coin, causing Guan Huodong to spit out a mouthful of blood.

Is the sign moving?

This feeling is very familiar; Guan Huodong had been punished by the Boss before. When the sign moves, the pain is heart-wrenching; it’s this feeling!

The line of sight is already blocked, meaning Li Qi can’t control the copper coin; how can he still control the token?

There is something he doesn’t know: The token in Li Banfeng’s hand is different; Jin Qian’er, under Li Banfeng’s training, only acts and doesn’t follow the rules. It attacks whoever he orders it to, without any conditions.

The fisherman sandwiched between them was startled and turned around to look at Guan Huodong.

He didn’t recognize this person, only feeling that this person sprayed something from behind him.

“What did you spray at me just now?” The fisherman felt warmth behind him.

Guan Huodong wiped the blood from his mouth corner, smiled, and said: “Nothing, just thought you’re handsome and wanted to give you something nice.”

The fisherman felt disgusted and hurriedly moved far away. Guan Huodong walked slowly and steadily onto a fishing boat, distancing himself from Li Banfeng.

Li Banfeng’s copper coin and the copper coin within Guan Huodong lost their sensing, Guan Huodong stood on the fishing boat waiting for Li Banfeng to come after him.

Tan Jinxiao whispered: “Seventh Master, be careful; he’s good with traps.”

Li Banfeng didn’t rush in pursuit; he sensed danger. Tan Jinxiao was right, there are indeed traps surrounding this fishing boat.

Guan Huodong was on the boat, and Li Banfeng was below, making eye contact briefly; the boat owner walked over from afar, looked at Li Banfeng’s attire, and asked: “Boss, do you need a boat?”

Tan Jinxiao said to the boat owner: “You better move away!”

The boat owner was displeased: “This is my boat! Why should I hide?”

Li Banfeng pulled out a couple of bills: “Indeed, need the boat, here’s some down payment.”

The boat owner took the money, his anger turning to joy: “Please wait a moment, let me tidy up the boat!”

The boat owner returned to the boat, glanced at Guan Huodong: “My boat is hired by that boss over there; if you need a boat, please find another one.”

Guan Huodong smiled: “I’d also like to hire your boat; I’ll offer a higher price, let me hire it!”

The boat owner waved his hand: “Sorry, I’ve already taken their down payment; business shouldn’t be done this way.”

While they were talking, Li Banfeng’s figure suddenly vanished.

Guan Huodong nodded at the boat owner: “Alright, I’ll find another one.”

He jumped off the boat and pursued; the Peeping Cultivator is not slow, following Li Banfeng’s observations, Guan Huodong is even faster than Martial Cultivators from Above the Clouds.

Although faster than Martial Cultivators, still unable to match Traveling Cultivators, Li Banfeng quickly opened up the distance, yet Passing Glance didn’t take effect, never losing sight of Guan Huodong.

It’s Guan Huodong’s territory, hooks everywhere belonging to him; as long as Li Banfeng remains in Sea City, Guan Huodong knows his position at all times.

Li Banfeng stopped running, turned to walk toward Guan Huodong.

Guan Huodong turned to walk towards the sea, bending down to raise a section of the fishing net.

If Li Qi approaches, Guan Huodong will catch him with the net; there are mechanisms below the net.

If Li Qi doesn’t approach, Guan Huodong will continue tracking Li Banfeng’s position, ready for a sneak attack.

Li Banfeng stood on the shore, didn’t enter the water, nor moved far. He lifted his hat brim, watching Guan Huodong.

Tan Jinxiao cleared his throat beside him, ready to spit.

Guan Huodong felt a bit nervous; facing two opponents, he’s definitely doomed.

Li Banfeng signaled Tan Jinxiao not to move yet.

Tan Jinxiao whispered: “Seventh Master, this isn’t the time for righteousness; this is Guan Huodong’s territory, his tricks are everywhere here, In this place, you might not see him, but he can certainly see you. You can’t ambush him, but he can ambush you at will. The Peeping Cultivator’s physique is quite reputable, solely relying on you might not be enough to win.”

Li Banfeng didn’t want Tan Jinxiao to intervene, not because he intended to duel with Guan Huodong alone, but he didn’t want to stir too much commotion.

Xiao Yeci watched from afar: “What’s the Benefactor doing? Why does he keep looking at the fisherman?”

Liang Wu spoke with deep feeling: “Watching the fisherman, because in his heart, there is a longing for fish.”
