At the same time, the city lord's palace and the meeting hall.
Li Xuanyi was sitting on the main seat with a gloomy face, listening to the reports of his subordinates.
"City Lord! It's not good! Dramatic changes have taken place in Ye Feng's courtyard! Commander Wang, they... they..."
"What happened to them?" Li Xuan stood up suddenly, and an ominous premonition came to his heart.
However, the guard had not finished speaking yet.
"Boom——"
A loud noise came from outside the hall!
The entire city lord's mansion shook violently.
"What's going on!" Li Xuan shouted angrily.
"Report——" Another guard rushed in, crawling on the ground, his voice full of panic, "City Lord! Treasure...treasure house! The treasure house has been blown up!"
"What?!" Li Xuan was stunned as if he was struck by lightning.
Treasure house, that is all the wealth he has accumulated after thousands of years of business!
He could no longer care about Ye Feng. With a sway, he turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the treasure house.
When he arrived, his whole body was stunned.
I saw that the treasure house, which was made of ten thousand years of black iron and had hundreds of top-level restrictions, had been razed to the ground at this moment.
A huge deep pit appeared on the same spot, with wisps of green smoke still rising from the bottom of the pit.
The spiritual stones, elixirs, magic weapons, and materials he had stored for thousands of years...are all gone! Not even a hair is left!
"Pfft——"
Li Xuan looked up to the sky and spurted out a large mouthful of blood, his eyes were red, and he looked like a madman.
"Who is it! Who did it!"
He roared crazily, and his consciousness swept through the entire Taixuan City without reservation.
However, at the moment when his consciousness left his body, his mind was in chaos.
A faint starlight, like a ghost, penetrated the barrier of space and appeared silently behind him.
That is a needle of divine consciousness condensed using the "Method of Tempering Spiritual Consciousness".
On it, there is a trace of the original power of the "Nine Heavens Divine Thunder" that Ye Feng had just refined.
"Soul-destroying thorn!"
"Chi—"
The soul-destroying thorn penetrated the back of Li Xuanyi's head.
Li Xuanyi’s body stiffened suddenly.
The madness and anger on his face froze in an instant, and was replaced by endless fear.
He could feel that an irresistible force full of destruction was frantically destroying his sea of consciousness and annihilating his soul!
"It's...it's you..."
He struggled to spit out three words, his eyes full of unwillingness.
Until his death, he could not figure out how the kid from the Eastern Region, whom he regarded as an ant and played around with, managed to kill all his guards and at the same time launch this fatal blow against him across half the city.
"Bang."
Li Xuanyi, the lord of Taixuan City and a great monk in the late Mahayana period, fell straight down, his life was cut off.
His eyes were still wide open and he would not close his eyes.
The night wind blew through the ruined treasure house and stirred up a cloud of dust, carrying a strong smell of blood and burnt food.
Li Xuanyi's body lay quietly on the edge of the pit. The final outcome of this Mahayana overlord who had dominated Taixuan City for thousands of years was so silent.
In Ye Feng’s courtyard.
Xiao Wuhen looked at the fire rising into the sky from the City Lord's Mansion in the distance, and then looked at Ye Feng, who had a calm expression around him, and his Adam's apple rolled with difficulty.
He finally understood what Ye Feng meant when he said "He can't come" just now.
While this guy was annihilating the escort team, he actually had a backup plan to kill Li Xuanyi, the late Mahayana city lord across half the city!
What a terrifying calculation and strength!
"Sign up in the east and attack in the west, divert the tiger away from the mountain, hide the truth from the enemy, and secretly infiltrate Chencang..." Xiao Wuhen muttered to himself. He found that all the strategies he knew seemed to have been used by Ye Feng over and over again in just one hour.
The most terrifying thing is that Ye Feng’s goal from beginning to end was not the guards or the treasure house.
But Li Xuan himself!
Blowing up the treasure house was just a way to make Li Xuan confused and expose his flaws.
Cruel! Too cruel!
Not only kill people, but also kill people's hearts!
"You...how did you do it?" Xiao Wuhen couldn't help but ask.
"Secret." Ye Feng smiled mysteriously at him, and then stretched, "Okay, now the city lord's palace is leaderless and has become a mess. It's a good time for us to run away."
"Run away?" Xiao Wuhen said Stunned, "Just leave like that? This Taixuan City is a mess now, and it's also a hot mess."
After Li Xuan died, the huge power and resources he left behind will inevitably lead to crazy competition among the major forces in the city.
"Whoever wants to clean up the mess can clean it up." Ye Feng curled his lips and said nonchalantly, "Our goal is the Holy Land, the 'Lord of the Returned Ruins'. What's the point of being the king and hegemony in a small Taixuan City?"
His eyes looked deeper into Zhongzhou, the core area shrouded in the light of the Holy Land.
"Besides, do you think Yue Wuxin is a fool?" Ye Feng's eyes became solemn, "He is probably almost at the Tianmo Sect's main altar now. When he finds out that he has been tricked, the first thing he will do when he turns around is to bloodbath Taixuan City. If we don't leave, how about we stay here, take the blame for Li Xuan, and wait for him to come back to settle the score?"
Xiao Wuhen was also frightened when he heard this.
Indeed, once someone like Yue Wuxin goes crazy, the entire Taixuan City will have to be buried with him.
"You are right, it is not suitable to stay here for a long time." Xiao Wuhen immediately made a decision, "We must leave immediately!"
"You can leave, but you can't just leave in such a dejected manner." Ye Feng's lips curved into another evil smile, "No matter what, I have to give Taixuan City another 'big gift'."
Half an hour later.
Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded in the city lord’s mansion in Taixuan City.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! The "Heavenly Demon" has entered the City Lord's Mansion!"
"Quick! Protect the young master! Protect all ladies!"
The entire City Lord's Mansion was completely plunged into a sea of fire and chaos. Countless monks were fighting crazily in the mansion, with shouts of death, screams, and explosions resounding through the sky.
However, if you look carefully, you will find that the so-called "enemies" and "guards" are actually wearing the clothes of the city lord's palace.
Their eyes were red and they looked like crazy demons. They would kill anyone they saw, completely losing their minds, as if they were trapped in the deepest nightmare.
Deep in the dungeon of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Ye Feng and Xiao Wuhen were like two ghosts, walking through the passage.
"Illusion array? When did you set it up?" Xiao Wuhen looked at the chaotic scene outside and couldn't help but ask through a message.
"After killing the commander surnamed Wang, we laid it out easily." Ye Feng replied calmly, "I made all the dirty things that Li Xuanyi had done over the years, such as assassinating monks, robbing female cultivators, and stealing treasures, into an illusion, and gave them the false news of the invasion of the demons."
"..." Xiao Wuhen was no longer able to complain. This guy is simply a devil.
Then the two came to the depths of the dungeon.
Here, some prisoners with special status are imprisoned.
Ye Feng came to one of the cells.
In the cell, a burly man with a beard was locked to the wall by dozens of iron chains engraved with runes. His bones were pierced and his breath was sluggish.
"Who are you?" the big man asked when he saw the two of them.
"I will give you a chance to be free." Ye Feng smiled slightly and said nothing nonsense. He waved the Qingxuan Ancient Sword in his hand lightly.
"Swish, swish, swish!"
Several rays of sword light flashed past, and those indestructible rune chains were broken.
The big man was stunned. He felt the mana starting to flow through his body again, with a look of ecstasy on his face.
"I'm Xiong Ba! Thank you both for your help! Do you know your names?"
"Ye Feng."
"Xiao Wuhen."
"Okay! Brother Ye, Brother Xiao! I, Xiong Ba, will remember this kindness! If I have to be called upon in the future, I will never hesitate to do so!" Xiong Ba bowed deeply to the two of them.
"It's very simple." Ye Feng's smile became a little playful, "Help us make the noise a little louder. The bigger, the better."
Hearing this, Xiong Ba was stunned for a moment, and then burst out laughing. The laughter shook the entire dungeon and buzzed.
"Hahahaha! I like this job! Li Xuanyi, an old man, imprisoned me for three years, and today, I demolished his city lord's mansion!"
...
After a stick of incense.
The teleportation hall of Taixuan City.
This is the fastest way to leave Taixuan City. But at this moment, the teleportation array has been firmly controlled by the remnant forces of the City Lord's Mansion. Li Xuanyi's only son, a playboy who only knows about eating, drinking and having fun, is in charge personally.
"Listen to me! Without my order, no one is allowed to activate the teleportation array! Not even a mosquito can be released!" Li Tianse roared with anguish.
His father died, the treasure house was bombed, and the house was in chaos. His only thought now is to seal off the whole city and find the murderer.
However, at this moment.
"Boom——"
A deafening roar came from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion. "Li Tian! You bastard! Get out of here and die!"
I saw a figure as tall as an iron tower, with golden flames burning all over his body, holding a huge battle ax, and hacked his way out of the city lord's mansion. Behind him were dozens of fierce people who were also imprisoned in the dungeon.
"Yes...it's Xiong Ba! Wasn't he locked up by the city lord because his cultivation level was locked up?"
"Oh my god! Why did he come out?"
"Run!"
The guards in front of the teleportation hall were frightened to death when they saw the evil bear bully, and their formation was in chaos.
Li Tian was so frightened that he sat down on the ground and crawled to hide behind the teleportation array.
"Stop him! Stop him quickly!"
