It was twilight at this time, and the surrounding fields seemed to be shrouded in mist.
When the lights in the city first came on, the city lord's palace and the restaurant below them were all brightly lit.
The firm, plump face was full of solemnity.
Dingshi said in a deep voice: "After seeing our news, the City Lord's Mansion didn't take any action at all, let alone put it on guard. It's really abnormal!"
As soon as Senior Brother's signal was sent out, it indicated that there was an enemy invasion and the whole city needed to be on alert. But now it was good, the lights in the city lord's palace were brightly lit, and the sounds of silk and bamboo and soft singing floated over, so there was no sign of alertness.
"It's too wrong." Dingjian said in a deep voice.
Chu Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he used his clairvoyance again, and scenes appeared in his mind.
He took a deep breath and said: "First senior brother, second senior brother, the city lord has a problem!"
"Impossible!" Both of them shook their heads.
They are not fools. All the masters on Nebula Island retreated. When they reoccupied Taidong Zhenhai City, they had already conducted a detailed investigation and found that everyone in the city lord's mansion was innocent and impeccable.
The inexplicable fall of Taidong Zhenhai City at the beginning, and the only remaining fruits of Dinghe, made them certain that there must be a traitor in Taidong Zhenhai City, otherwise it would be impossible to break through Zhenhai City's formation silently, even if Wan Ziyang came in person.
Any formation-breaking talisman that attempts to break this formation will make a huge noise, thus awakening the experts in the city.
Passing through the formation silently, there is only one possibility: there is a traitor from inside the city who destroyed the formation!
They carefully screened the masters in the city like a sieve, especially the city lord's palace. They checked repeatedly, even the city lord was not spared. Except for a few missing masters, they could not find any problems.
Apparently the traitors had already taken advantage of the opportunity to get away without giving them a chance to retaliate.
Chu Li said slowly: "The city lord does have a problem... Senior brother and second senior brother can't believe it, but they must take precautions."
"...Yes, I would rather believe that it exists than believe that it does not exist." Dingjian said in a deep voice.
Dingshi said: "Is it possible to directly restrain the city lord?... Senior brother, this is not a trivial matter. If he is wronged or no excuse is found, the reputation of our Great Ci'en Temple will be damaged!"
The city lord is not an ordinary expert, and if they really blame him wrongly, the two of them cannot bear the consequences. However, there are only two of them in the Great Ci'en Temple, but they have to make a decision.
He turned to look at Chu Li.
Chu Li said: "Second senior brother, I believe in clairvoyance!"
The stone is set in silence.
He also believes in clairvoyance, and the third junior brother will not tell lies, but the most important thing is to find the reason. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles. They believe in clairvoyance, but others do not.
"This matter is of great importance. Let's stop it first!" Dingjian said in a deep voice.
Chu Li nodded lightly: "This city lord is also a top expert."
"The three of us go together, no matter how strong we are, we can take it down!" Dingjian snorted.
Chu Li nodded.
"Let's go!" Dingjian floated downstairs and came directly to the outside of the city lord's palace. He didn't need to escort him in to report, so he walked directly in.
Chu Li and Dingshi followed him in.
The three of them walked straight towards the reception hall of the city lord's palace, and the sound of silk and bamboo and the soft and charming singing became increasingly clear.
Chu Li lowered his voice: "The two bodyguards of the city lord are also top experts, and they are also the source of control!"
"Master of Nebula Island?" Dingshi asked hurriedly.
Chu Li shook his head gently and said: "It's not Nebula Island."
"That's...?" Dingshi asked.
Chu Li sighed: "I have never seen the martial arts they performed before, but it is definitely not from Xingyun Island."
Dingjian whispered: "Control the city lord first. If anything goes wrong, third junior brother, you take action to stop me. Second junior brother, you do your best to help me capture the city lord!"
"Yes." Chu Lihe said.
The sound of silk and bamboo and the soft singing became clearer and clearer, and they were already outside the hall.
Four guards in black were standing upright on the steps, looking down at the three of them, and then one of them turned around and opened the curtain and entered the hall.
Chu Li didn't need to look through his eyes, the Great Round Mirror Wisdom had already seen the situation clearly.
Sitting on the seat due to the north is a handsome middle-aged man. The three long locks of beard under his chin give him a bit of uniqueness and a sense of immortality. He is stroking his beard and closing his eyes with an intoxicated look on his face.
Completely immersed in the singing of the graceful woman in the center of the hall, it was none other than the city lord Lin Zhaodong.
The two middle-aged men in gray robes standing behind him closed their eyes slightly, as if they had fallen asleep and turned a deaf ear to the soft singing.
The graceful woman in the middle of the hall is slender and graceful. Her face is covered with white gauze, only her delicate and pretty lower jaw is exposed. She spits out a series of graceful and sweet sounds, which makes people unable to extricate themselves.
Chu Li has special hearing and is particularly sensitive to sounds. He can hear the same sounds hundreds of times richer than ordinary people, so he enjoys beautiful sounds even more. The beauty of this woman's voice is truly unique.
He didn't hear any trace of spiritual power in the voice. It was the pure voice that made people intoxicated, rather than the charm technique used by the Jixiang Sect.
The wisdom of the Great Round Mirror has already observed that this woman's appearance is beautiful. Although not as stunning as Xiao Qi and Lu Yurong, she is already a rare beauty. Covering her with a white gauze makes her even more alluring.
In addition to this slender and graceful woman, there are six middle-aged women playing in the hall, and the rest are some masters sitting in twos and threes behind short tables. The tables are filled with wine, meat, melons and fruits, which is extremely rich.
Apparently they were having a great time.
A guard in black walked quietly to the city lord. A middle-aged man in gray robe blocked him. The guard in black reported in a low voice. The middle-aged man in gray robe waved his hand and asked the guard in black to step back. Then he personally whispered in the ear of the city lord.
Report.
After hearing this, the city lord opened his squinted eyes and nodded slowly: "It's okay to let them in."
He clapped his hands, interrupted the singing and the sound of silk and bamboo, and said with a smile: "Heroes, the three masters from Daci'en Temple are here. We are drinking here, but the two masters are patrolling, it is really hard work!"
Everyone smiled and nodded.
He Jin sat down at the bottom and said with a smile: "The two masters are serious and admirable. It's a pity that the rules prevent us from inviting each other."
"The poor monk came here and ruined everyone's interest. It's a sin!" Monk Dingjian said loudly, his gray monk robes fluttering, and he walked in slowly with Dingshi and Chu Li.
He Jin chuckled and said, "Dingjian, thank you for your hard work."
He stood firm and titheed, and without stopping, walked towards the city lord: "It's just my duty. City lord, I have something important to report to you."
"Oh——?" City Lord Lin Zhaodong stroked his beard and chuckled, "Master Dingjian, please tell me."
Determined to take another step forward, a middle-aged man in gray robe stepped forward to block him.
Dingjian frowned and looked at him, then looked at the city lord Lin Zhaodong.
Lin Zhaodong waved his hand and said with a smile: "Zihua, don't make such a fuss, how can Master Dingjian be detrimental to me?"
Dingjian said: "City Lord, this matter is of great importance and should not be publicized. It is about Xingyun Island."
"Master, please speak." Lin Zhaodong waved.
Monk Dingjian stepped forward, glared at the middle-aged man in gray, and whispered in Lin Zhaodong's ear: "City Lord, Nebula Island is coming again, and it is very likely that he has already sneaked into the city!"
"Huh——?" Lin Zhaodong looked at him in surprise.
Monk Dingjian looked solemn and nodded firmly.
"How dare you come again!" Lin Zhaodong lowered his face, stroking his beard and pondered.
