Leng Xuan, having identified the main culprit, tossed the person he was holding to the side and walked directly in front of Li Cheng, blocking his path. Then, he grabbed Li Cheng's collar and hoisted him up.
Li Cheng's heart was seized with terror, fearing that this man who killed without batting an eye was about to take his life. He pleaded for mercy repeatedly, "Merciful sir, spare my life, merciful sir, spare my life. Please let me go, I can give you a lot of money."
"Who is the mastermind behind you? Don't you dare lie to me."
Li Cheng immediately responded, "I'll tell you, it was all Cao Shaoyi's doing. I'm just in charge of managing things."
Just as that Cultivator had said. Leng Xuan nodded to himself. That's when Li Cheng hurriedly spoke, "Merciful sir, if you're looking for trouble, you should go find Cao Shaoyi. He lives inside the Imperial Cao Palace. I'm just a small fry who handles affairs; I've never offended you. Please spare my life."
