Tianshu Peak.
The atmosphere at the summit is so oppressive that people can’t breathe.
Xuanjizi sat cross-legged in front of the polluted "Xunfeng" node, his face ashen. He spent a lot of energy, but he could only temporarily seal the "Heart-corrupting Demonic Evil". If he wanted to completely eradicate it, he would have to tear down the entire node and rebuild it, but this would inevitably affect the operation of the city defense formation and affect the whole body.
Luo Li stood by the altar, her eyes slightly closed, her pale golden pupils turning rapidly under her eyelids.
She was like a spider web ready to go, patiently feeling the movement of the "spider thread" she had laid.
She didn't believe that "Gu Feng" could discover her mark, let alone that he had the ability to remove it. As long as the other party is still in Tianxuan City, he will definitely not be able to escape from her grasp.
Suddenly, her eyelashes trembled slightly.
I sensed it!
The mark connected to her mind sent a clear wave!
The other party seems to be under siege, and the soul is stirring, causing the energy of the mark to become active.
"Found it!" Luo Li opened her eyes suddenly, with murderous intent in her eyes, "West of the city, Baicao Lane!"
"Let's go!"
This is the moment Xuanjizi has been waiting for. He stood up suddenly, waved his sleeves, rolled up Luo Li and Tianxuan City Lord, and their figures disappeared from the place in an instant.
The next second, they appeared in the sky above Baicao Lane like gods descending.
At the same time, hundreds of elite disciples of Tianxuan Sect also surrounded them from all directions, surrounding the entire alley like an iron barrel.
"You monster, I'm going to catch you without restraint!" Tianxuan City Lord shouted loudly, his voice was like thunder.
In the alley, the black-clothed demon cultivator who had just been confronting several deacons was completely stunned when he saw this devastating battle.
What is going on?
I am just a low-ranking peripheral member of the Tianmo Sect. I came to Tianxuan City to find out the news. How come I have alerted the powerful people in the Tribulation Period and the inspectors of the Holy Land? And you set up such a big battle to catch yourself?
I...am I so important?
A ridiculous, flattering feeling rose from the bottom of his heart.
"Get it!" Luo Li spat out two words coldly. She couldn't wait to see what the desperate expression of the boy who had tricked her would look like after all his disguises were revealed.
Several powerful restraints fell instantly, binding the black-clothed demon cultivator tightly, unable to mobilize even a trace of demonic energy.
Xuanjizi took one step forward and came to the demon cultivator. The powerful spiritual thought, like an indestructible sword, pierced directly into his sea of consciousness.
"Search for souls!"
However, after a moment, Xuanjizi's brows furrowed tightly.
He withdrew his spiritual thoughts and his expression became a little strange.
"What's wrong, senior?" Luo Li asked.
His gaze turned to Luo Li, with questions in his eyes: "In his memory, there is no information about the formation conference or the 'Heart-corrupting Demonic Evil'. And... he doesn't understand the formation at all."
How could a Nascent Soul stage pawn who doesn't even understand basic formations transform the core nodes of the city defense formation under the eyes of a powerful person in the Tribulation Stage?
Luo Li's heart skipped a beat and sank.
She also noticed something was wrong.
She quickly walked up to the restrained demon cultivator, stretched out her slender jade finger, and touched the other person's eyebrows.
The Soul-Eating Eyes are operating at full power!
She saw the soul mark that belonged to her, which was clearly imprinted on the opponent's demon soul.
But...it feels wrong!
This mark is as if it was forcibly stuck on with glue later. Although it seems to be integrated, in essence, it is incompatible with the origin of the other party. Full of chisel marks.
An indescribable chill shot from her tailbone to Tianling Gai.
"No!" Luo Li exclaimed, and for the first time, a look of shock and anger appeared on her beautiful face.
"We...were cheated!"
Boom!
At the other end of Tianxuan City, in the direction of the East Gate, a burst of fire burst into the sky, accompanied by a violent explosion!
Found in the east and attack in the west! No, it’s the golden cicada that escapes from its shell!
The faces of Xuan Jizi and Tianxuan City Master instantly turned darker than the bottom of the pot.
The two of them, plus the city's elites, were actually transferred away from the real target area by a little thief with an insignificant abandoned son!
"Ah——! Little thief, I will cut you into pieces!" Xuan Jizi's roar made the whole Tianxuan City buzz.
At this moment, Ye Feng, the instigator, was sitting in the private room of the "Wangyue Tower", the tallest restaurant near the east city gate. He opened the window, sipping the fine "Xueding Lingcha" and admiring the "fireworks show" in the distance directed by him.
"Tsk, tsk, the great power in the Tribulation Period is angry, but this movement is different." He took a sip of tea, leisurely.
Across from him, Xiao Wuhen was restless, as if there were nails growing under his butt.
"Are we really not going to leave? The city gate has exploded! Now that the whole city's attention has been attracted, it's the best time for us to get out!"
Ye Feng put down his tea cup and looked at him funny: "Do you think the two of us can escape from the hands of a crazy old monster in the tribulation period?"
"What should we do?"
"Wait." Ye Feng stretched out a finger and tapped the table lightly, "Wait until they find out all the eighteen generations of that unfortunate guy's ancestors, wait until they find out that they have arrested the wrong person. Wait until they... open the city gate for us."
The smile on his face was confident and calm.
From the moment he stepped into Tianxuan City, the rhythm of this game has been in his hands.
Half an hour later, the terrifying pressure hanging over Tianxuan City gradually dissipated.
The massive arrest operation in the west of the city ended hastily in an anticlimactic manner.
The black-clothed demon cultivator who was regarded as the mastermind of the shocking case was slapped into ashes by the angry Lord Tianxuan after his soul was repeatedly searched by several powerful figures and it was confirmed that no valuable information could be extracted.
The well-informed people quickly found out the whole story.
The whole city was in an uproar!
After a long time, Tianxuanzong mobilized troops, even the Supreme Elder and the Holy Land envoy personally took action, but ended up arresting the wrong person?
Isn’t it that the real culprit, the “ancient style” that turned the world upside down, is still at large?
For a time, the entire Tianxuan City became a huge joke. All kinds of rumors and rumors breed crazily in the dark corners of the city.
In the elegant room of Wangyue Building.
Xiao Wuhen listened to the various discussions coming from outside and looked at Ye Feng, who was still calm and composed opposite, with complicated eyes as if he had knocked over the palette.
What is this guy’s heart made of?
You can treat a great tribulation master and a holy land witch like monkeys, and still drink tea here calmly.
"Now, they should understand that continuing to block the city is just a joke." Ye Feng drank the last sip of tea in the cup and stood up, "Let's go, it's time to get our ultimatum for leaving the city."
"Get... get the ultimatum?" Xiao Wuhen's tongue was almost tied, "Are we going to go like this?"
"What else?" Ye Feng asked matter-of-factly, "Now Tianxuan City is in urgent need of saving its face. They can't catch the real culprit, and they can't keep everyone in the city as prisoners. Therefore, opening the city gates, restoring order, and then secretly controlling them is the wisest choice. We go there now and just in time to catch up with the first batch."
Ye Feng's deduction is absolutely correct.
When he and Xiao Wuhen put on the clothes of traveling businessmen and arrived at the South City Gate, they found that the original strict blockade had been removed. Although the interrogation is still strict, as long as the family is clean, the origin is not suspicious, and after paying a certain amount of spiritual stones, you can receive the exit document and leave smoothly.
Tianxuan City obviously wants to use this method of loosening the outside and tightening the inside to lure the snake out of the hole.
It's a pity that Ye Feng, this "snake", has long since changed into a perfect skin.
His and Xiao Wuhen's identities were prepared long ago and were perfect. The two passed the interrogation smoothly and got the documents to leave the city.
The moment they were about to step out of the city gate.
"Buzz——!"
A grand and majestic aura swept over from the end of the sky.
A gorgeous flying boat made of gold, engraved with the sun, moon and stars, tore through the clouds, and slowly descended over Tianxuan City, surrounded by a group of holy land guards wearing silver armor and with strong auras.
On the deck of the flying boat, stood a young man wearing a white robe and a stern face.
His eyes were as sharp as a hawk, scanning the entire city below, with an innate sense of arrogance. His aura was unfathomable and was no weaker than that of Tianxuan City Lord.
"Holy Land Law Enforcement Hall, by the order of the Holy Lord, Tianxuan City will be taken over by our Law Enforcement Hall with immediate effect!"
The young man's voice, without any emotion, was like the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder, clearly spreading throughout every corner of the city.
At the city gate, everyone’s movements stopped.
Ye Feng and Xiao Wuhen, who were just about to leave the city, also stopped.
Ye Feng’s brows really wrinkled for the first time.
Things began to get out of his control.
