"Your Highness, there are Xuan-level soul weapons in Huan City, and among those who use swords, there is an old man who is closest to your description."

"Go on."

"Nearly sixty years old, tall and thin, he often wears gray or blue robes. He travels around and makes a living by reselling animal materials. Someone once offered three hundred gold coins to buy his sword, but he rejected it."

Yu Renshu carefully wiped the Tianrong mace with a cloth handkerchief. The mace was of delicate ivory white, with even concave edges, thick and warm texture, like a perfect work of art. After hearing the description of his subordinate, his hand

After a pause, "I have been to so many cities, and this is the closest one."

"Yes, so my subordinates have sent people to the old man's home to investigate. There is no one at home and he may have run away. According to the neighbors, the old man brought back a young man and a toddler about two or three months ago."

Yu Renshu frowned, "A young child?"

"yes."

Yu Renshu said: "Send more manpower to search within the city. In addition, strengthen the blockade of all routes out of the city. If any suspicious traces are found, report them immediately."

"yes."

After the subordinate exited, Tianrong Mace glowed slightly white, and a man dressed in amber appeared in the room out of thin air.

"How's it going? Did you find it?" Tianrong sat opposite Yu Renshu, picked up the teacup on the table and took a sip.

Yu Renshu said: "Tianrong, if you want to drink tea, I will ask someone to serve it to you. You can't drink my tea. I taught you this."

Tianrong crossed his legs and said, "Why should I abide by human ethics?"

"Because you are my soul beast, and I am the prince of Tianling Kingdom."

Tianrong shrugged, "Then when you need to save face, it's best not to call me out."

Yu Renshu put down his trump card and said, "You have to come out on your own now."

Tianrong curled his lips and smiled, staring directly at Yu Renshu with a pair of deep beast eyes, "Are you scared?"

Yu Renshu raised his chin slightly, "What do you mean?"

"I can appear at will now, and my soul power will become stronger and stronger. Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to control me?"

Yu Renshu smiled and said, "If I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to control you, I wouldn't have summoned you in the first place."

Tianrong laughed and said: "Many soul soldiers have such self-confidence, but there are also many who have been counterattacked."

Yu Renshu shook his head, his eyes flashed, and his tone was arrogant and determined, "I will not be one of them."

Tianrong played with the small tea cup, his amber pupils filled with dangerous animality, "However, I quite like you. Even if one day you can't control me, I probably won't kill you."

Yu Renshu smiled and said: "If that day comes, you'd better kill me, otherwise I will definitely seal you."

Tianrong narrowed his eyes, "Well, at least until you take me to foreign countries overseas, we are still... friends."

Yu Renshu smiled lightly and said, "By the way, when you entered the city today, what did you say about the unusual pressure you felt?"

Mentioning this, Tianrong's expression darkened, "I don't know, I can't describe it. I have never experienced the feeling of being oppressed by something invisible in my memory. I don't even know if it was my illusion."

"Isn't the intuition of alien beasts always very sharp? Is it because you felt that heaven-level soul weapon?"

Tianrong frowned, "It's not the first heaven-level soul weapon I've encountered. It feels different from a heaven-level soul weapon."

"Did you just hear that? About the toddler."

"I heard it. If it is really them, then the child is probably the human form of a soul beast summoned by people from other worlds when their soul power is insufficient." When Tianrong said this, he couldn't help laughing, "With that

It's a great humiliation to look like this, and he must be going crazy."

Yu Renshu sneered and said: "If you are restless, I can let you appear in that form."

Tianrong raised his eyebrows, "If you dare to do that, our 'friend' relationship will end here."

"I wonder if the different feelings of oppression you experience are related to this 'toddler form'?"

"It may not be impossible..." Tianrong touched his chin, "You'll know when you see them."

Jiang Chaoge's expression was stiff, "Is this your plan?"

"Sounds okay?"

Jiang Chaoge sighed, "Mr. Meng, have you watched too many TV series before? If I dress up like a woman, you think others are blind."

Meng Sheng rolled his eyes, "Then what do you think we should do? You are smart, you can think of it yourself."

"The most important thing is not how I get out of the city, but how I get out of the city with the Zhixuan Sword. The knife is the hardest thing to hide."

"That's why I asked you to put the knife in the secret room, otherwise the target would be too big." Meng Sheng sighed: "But if the prince has really found my home..."

"The knife won't be found for a while, and even if it is found, it won't be easy for them to take it away." Jiang Chaoge pondered for a while and put on a good set of clothes. "I'm going to find someone. You guys wait for my news."

"Take me there." Zhi Xuan stretched out his little arm.

"I can't take you there this time. I'll buy you something delicious when I come back."

Zhi Xuan snorted from his nose, looking very dissatisfied.

After Jiang Chaoge went out, he saw that all the guards in the city were out in force. Apparently they were specially ordered by the prince to look for them all over the city. He looked calm and calm, and walked down the street with his head held high to find Sun An.

As soon as Sun An saw him, his expression changed and he quickly dragged him into the house.

Jiang Chaoge looked at him calmly, "You know everything?"

Sun An whispered: "Brother, I...your portraits are all over the city now, how can you still dare to walk on the street like this?"

"You can tell it's me?"

"Well... I can't actually see it, but it says you are from another world, and there are old people and children. As soon as I thought about it, I couldn't help but look like you. But you disappeared again, and I didn't think about it either.

So stupid."

"Silly boy, I never thought you were stupid." Jiang Chaoge patted him on the shoulder, "Sun An, I need your help now. The prince is offering a reward of two gold coins. I'll give you double that."

"Brother." Sun An said seriously: "You are the most noble person in my life. It has nothing to do with gold coins. Now is my chance to repay you. You tell me what you want me to do."

"You go to the manager of the pawn shop and tell him that we want to borrow their ship to transport things out of the city. If he can do it, the ring he saw last time will belong to him."

"Yes. But, will he guess it?"

"At this time, I can only take a gamble and see if he is brave enough. According to my understanding of that person, his greed is enough for him to take risks."

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Sun An, you still need to help me prepare some things..."

After looking for Sun An, Jiang Chaoge walked to Scorpion Lane and wandered around the area. He found that there were a few guards guarding the door of Meng Sheng's residence, but with Meng Sheng's strength, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with these people.

When he went back, he bought some clothes, food, and two jugs of wine.

Back at the inn, Zhi Xuan's unknown nose smelled the smell of wine from afar. He pushed open the door and stuck out his little head. He patted the door frame with his little paws happily: "You bought wine, right? You know how to recognize someone."

."

Jiang Chaoge said with a smile: "These two pots of aged Dihua wine cost me four hundred silver coins. I may not be able to find such good wine in the whole city of Juan."

Zhi Xuan's eyes sparkled with excitement, "Give it to me quickly."

Jiang Chaoge picked him up, walked into the room, and put him directly on the table, "Little ancestor, can you do me a favor?"

Zhi Xuan picked up the wine bottle and took a deep sniff, "What are you doing?"

Jiang Chao Ge uncorked his wine and said, "Mr. Meng and I are going to find a way to escape from the city tonight. It's inconvenient to take you with us. You go back to the knife first, and then we can summon you out when we are safe."

Zhi Xuan picked up the wine bottle, drank several sips, and then licked his lips happily, "For the sake of the wine, I reluctantly agree to you once."

Jiang Chaoge touched his head and said with a smile, "Thank you, Master Zhixuan."

Jiang Chaoge told Meng Sheng his plan. Meng Sheng was frightened and said, "This is too risky."

"If we stay here any longer, we will be found sooner or later. Now we can only take a chance." Jiang Chaoge knew that the key was tonight. If they could not escape and were in close combat with the prince Shu, they would be defeated.

After the sun went down, the three of them left the inn and walked towards Meng Sheng's residence.

The guards guarding the gate are still there, and the manpower has been significantly increased.

Jiang Chaoge whispered: "You can put them down."

"unnecessary."

"What?"

"I told you, the one under my bed is a secret room, not a cellar. The secret room has more than one door."

Jiang Chaoge's eyes lit up, "You can't tell, Mr. Meng."

Meng Sheng hummed: "I have lived in this world for more than ten years, and I have not lived in vain. Come with me."

The two of them walked around Scorpion Lane and walked to a wasteland behind the house. It was far away from the main city and resembled a modern slum. There were only a few scattered houses around. At night, few people came out. They didn't meet anyone along the way.

.

Behind a big rock, Meng Sheng opened the secret door of the secret room, "This is less than a hundred meters away from where you put the knife. Climb over, pick up the knife, and leave immediately."

Jiang Chao Ge Qi said: "Mr. Meng, why did you dig this secret room?"

Meng Sheng shook his head and said: "I didn't dig this. This house was left to me by my old friend who gave me this sword."

Jiang Chaoge didn't have time to think too much and crawled into the dark secret passage with his waist bent.

The secret passage had been covered in dust for a long time, and the oxygen in it was thin. Jiang Chaoge felt uncomfortable with chest tightness and shortness of breath after climbing more than ten meters. He was very worried about whether he could crawl back to the house smoothly, but he could not look back now. He bravely climbed in, and it took only a few hundred meters.

He crawled for more than ten minutes until he finally reached a wooden door. The wooden door was rigid for many years, so he pulled it open several times. There was a little more air inside, and he took a deep breath.

, this familiar humidity made him know that he had reached the "cellar" under the bed. He groped in the dark, but he was the first to touch a bone...

Jiang Chaoge felt a little hairy all over his body, and gently put the bones back in place. Fortunately, this was a different world, and scattered animal bones could be found everywhere, otherwise he would have been frightened and sick. He continued to explore forward, and found a lot of tactile sensations along the way.

Weird things, including bones, and indescribable things, finally, he finally touched the Zhixuan Knife.

He grabbed the knife and crawled back as fast as he could. When he almost rolled his eyes due to lack of oxygen, he finally climbed out of the secret passage.

He lay on his back on the grass, breathing heavily. At this moment, there was nothing more precious than fresh air.

Meng Sheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Let's go quickly."

Zhi Xuan looked at Jiang Chaoge with disgust, "You are so dirty, don't hug me."

Jiang Chaoge got up from the ground and said feebly: "Ancestor, I won't hug you. How about I send you back to the knife now?"

Zhi Xuan pouted and struggled for a moment, "When will you summon me again?"

"Soon, wait until I escape from Juan City."

"Okay... wait!" Zhi Xuan looked at him, "Will you be killed by that third prince?"

Jiang Chaoge paused, "No."

"You have no confidence at all."

Jiang Chaoge smiled bitterly and said: "Well, I don't know, he is much better than me."

Zhi Xuan rolled his eyes at him, "He will definitely find me a more powerful soul soldier than you."

"Maybe."

Zhi Xuan tilted his head and looked at him sideways, "Will a soul soldier who is more powerful than you also buy me a drink?"

Jiang Chaoge smiled and said, "I can't guarantee that. Maybe he is a pauper."

Zhi Xuan snorted softly, "If you want to save your life, summon me out. Although I hate trash like you, for the sake of the wine, I can save you once, so that we can be clear."

Jiang Chaoge laughed and said, "How can you save me in your current state?"

Zhi Xuan bared his small white teeth and said, "Stop talking nonsense. If you don't believe me, just go to hell."

"How dare I not believe you? I hope Master Zhixuan can remember his old feelings and save my life."

Zhi Xuan grabbed his collar and whispered: "Try not to die."

Jiang Chaoge pinched his little cheek, smiled lightly and said, "Okay."

Zhi Xuan's body disappeared into the air in an instant. Jiang Chaoge didn't know what the scene would be like the next time he summoned Zhi Xuan, but what was certain was that he could summon him with his own soul power.

Meng Sheng urged: "Let's go quickly."

Jiang Chaoge put the knife on his back, and the two of them ran to the place agreed with Sun An in the dark night.

Sun An has been waiting for a long time. He has always behaved himself. Now his hands were shaking with nervousness. As soon as he saw Jiang Chaoge, he rushed towards him, "Brother, the boat is ready, but the steward... I'm worried that he won't trust him.

He can hide it from the boss for just a few dozen silver coins, but what if he betrays you?"

Jiang Chaoge patted his shoulder, "So I didn't plan to take his boat."

Sun An was stunned, "Huh?"

"Are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare?"

Sun An nodded vigorously, "They are all in my room."

Jiang Chaoge took out two gold coins and stuffed them into his hand, "Sun An, today may be our farewell forever. If Prince Shu finds you, tell him everything you know. There is no need to hide anything from me. He will not embarrass you."

"Brother..."
