Chapter 593: Chapter 593: I’m Drunk, Do As You Please

Before Red Eyes’ arrival, the people inside the City Lord Mansion had already dispersed, and the remnants of the meal and furniture in the courtyard had also been cleared away.

In the room, Lu Xiao sat by the window, absorbing his Inner Qi.

Over the past half month, he had not dared to relax for even a day, earnestly cultivating all the while.

At present, his Acupoints were filled with Inner Qi.

Out of the nine Acupoints belonging to the Half-Immortal Realm, he had already connected eight.

However, the ninth one still couldn’t be linked.

Even if he converted all the meridians around the Acupoint into energy, it didn’t work; it seemed like some special energy was preventing him from connecting.

"No wonder there are so many in the Half-Immortal Realm, yet so few Above Half-Immortal."

"This thing is indeed a bit tricky."

"Invisible barrier..."

Lu Xiao couldn’t help but furrow his brows; in just over a month, he would have to participate in the battle between Divine Continent Realm and West Continent Realm.

Although he could simply concede at the time, doing that would be quite embarrassing.

If there is a chance to stir things up, Lu Xiao felt that he should seize it.

"In my situation, I can’t really ask anyone else," Lu Xiao pursed his lips, feeling somewhat helpless.

His current path of cultivation was absolutely bizarre, possessing both Inner Qi and superpowers; he had converted his entire meridian into energy, his Acupoints into energy, and even the meridians around his Acupoints into energy.

"Invisible barrier, could it be that I need to use energy to break it open?"

"If I do it directly, I might just kill myself."

"Ah, what a headache."

Lu Xiao was also reluctant to act recklessly now as the energy within his body was too immense.

If anything went wrong, the surging energy was truly unbearable.

"Knock, knock, knock..." The door was suddenly knocked.

Lu Xiao raised his eyebrow, just as expected.

He knew Yin Li wouldn’t give up so easily.

"Come in, the door isn’t locked."

As soon as Lu Xiao spoke, the door was pushed open, and Yin Li entered carrying two bottles of wine.

"Seems like the City Lord didn’t quite drink to her heart’s content this afternoon," Lu Xiao said with a smile as he got up.

Yin Li did not respond, merely silently placed the wine bottles on the table, opened them, and lifted one to her mouth, starting to chug.

Lu Xiao: ???

What’s this move?

Getting yourself drunk so I can do whatever I like?

Goodness, is this some sort of seduction trick?

But I must say, Yin Li is indeed quite attractive.

Not only is Yin Li exceptionally beautiful, but the aura about her is also very appealing.

There’s a commanding chill that carries a touch of noble elegance, truly a queenly vibe.

"Lu Xiao, I want you to help me kill the City Lord of Lion Mane City. As for the conditions, you name it," after chugging half a bottle, Yin Li looked at Lu Xiao with a resolute expression.

"Any conditions I choose? Are you so desperate that you’d sacrifice your own virtue?"

"Yes!!" Yin Li stiffened her neck.

Indeed, women in power are different; even negotiating a bodily exchange carries such pride.

"Why bother?"

"Besides, even if the City Lord of Lion Mane City is killed, Hushan City will still fall."

"The overall strength of Lion Mane City is much stronger than Hushan City; it’s not something that can be resolved by killing one City Lord."

Hearing Lu Xiao’s words, Yin Li tipped her head back and continued to drink.

Not until she had finished the whole bottle did Yin Li again look at Lu Xiao, her determined eyes now also showing some helplessness and despair: "I know! Of course, I know! But what can I do? I can only try to find a sliver of a chance from the impossible. Otherwise, what should I do? Abandon Hushan City and flee by myself? I can’t do it!"

"Once those beasts from Lion Mane City enter, not even a dog in the city will survive."

"I can’t! I just can’t watch it happen..."

Yin Li became agitated, her face starting to turn red.

It was hard to tell whether it was because of the alcohol, or due to the long-standing pressure...

"So, Lu Xiao, please help me," Yin Li looked at Lu Xiao, then suddenly reached out and tore off her dress.
