Xiao Yu was extremely confused, because he and Bai Xiaosheng had no grudges. Although they only met once, he did not lack etiquette, and he also lacked the other party's Yuan Stone.
Just when Xiao Yu was puzzled, the lights in the city lord's mansion were brightly lit.
The city lord is an old man who looks very serious. He is wearing a robe embroidered with a spotted python, and his cultivation has reached the peak of three flowers.
The city lord sat on a high throne, and below him there were several generals in armor and two old men holding whisks in their hands.
"Do you have any clues about what happened last night?"
The city lord looked at the people below and asked loudly.
"To inform the city lord, after our investigation, the person who died last night was the big monster who has been capturing strange beasts for the Immortal Brewing House all year round.
They followed a young man outside the city last night and was killed afterwards.
But the soldiers guarding the city said that they only saw the five great demons going outside the city, and did not see a single young man.
Moreover, we found a faint corpse aura on the deceased, and my subordinates suspected that it was someone from Shura."
A general in armor clasped his hands and bowed to the city lord.
"Lord City Lord, this matter is too strange. Those five great demons are all of the second flower cultivation level. The other party can kill them in an instant. I'm afraid they are quite powerful.
The subordinates concluded that the perpetrator was probably at the peak of Sanhua, but in our Five Immortals City, only the Five Immortals have the strength of Sanhua.
It's just that they are currently in a state of seclusion, and they won't leave it for a few big monsters.
And in the past hundreds of years, no Shura has appeared in the Penglai Secret Realm, so this matter is strange."
An old man with a whisk in hand bowed to the superior city lord and said.
After hearing what the other party said, the city lord also frowned, and then he said seriously:
"There has been no murder in our Five Immortals City for decades, and this time five Erhua Earth Immortals died at once.
If the immortal interrogates me, how should I explain it to him?
By the way, the deceased you just mentioned had corpse aura on him?"
The city lord suddenly thought of something and asked immediately.
"Yes, the five Earth Immortals all have a faint corpse energy entrenched in their bodies, but it is very obscure and cannot be discovered at all without careful inspection.
I also specially found the White Elephant Immortal who is good at tracking, but the other party said that the secret was chaotic and he could not see the scene at that time.
Something that even the White Elephant Immortal cannot detect is definitely not a trivial matter, so I think that I would like to ask the city lord to take out the sounding scope to see what happened at that time."
Another old man cupped his hands and said.
Sounding scopes are found in every city. They are mainly used to track down the murderer. Only the city lord can open them.
However, no one likes to use this mirror because it takes too much effort.
If the pursuit of the person is stronger than the city lord here, he will not only suffer backlash, but also be hit hard from a distance.
But every city lord's cultivation has reached the peak of Sanhua. In the Penglai Secret Realm, there are only a handful of people who can surpass their cultivation.
"If there is no other way, then we can only try using a sounding scope!"
The city lord seemed a little helpless. He stood up and walked downstairs. Under the gaze of everyone, he took out an oval mirror.
The mirror is one meter high and looks like a big stone.
Everyone looked at the mirror, and then the city lord waved his sleeves and muttered something.
The originally quiet mirror suddenly emitted a dark light, and then several people who were killed last night appeared in the mirror.
Then, a man wearing a bucket and his body shrouded in white light appeared.
The sound of a needle dropping could be heard in the city lord's mansion. In the mirror, Xiao Yu suddenly walked out of the white light. Then he said a few words, and then a corpse aura surged out of his body.
"it's him……"
The general suddenly whispered something, and his words made the corpse energy entrenched in Xiao Yu suddenly pause.
Then, a cold snort suddenly appeared in the city lord's mansion, and then the mirror in front of several people suddenly shattered, and the city lord was knocked out more than ten meters away.
"Heaven...Celestial Immortal Shura, this."
The city lord was a little confused, and then the opponent turned over and sat up, then quickly took out a token and played several moves, and the token immediately made a buzzing sound.
"The Lord of Five Immortals City has something to report. In the past two days, a Shura Celestial Immortal came to the city. He is attached to a Taoist Taoist of Xuanmen. Please arrest him quickly."
After a few short words came out from the city lord's mouth, the token slowly became quiet again.
"City Lord, what should we do?"
Several generals and the old men quickly gathered around the city lord, with looks of horror on their faces.
The strength of Tianxian is indeed terrifying. He did not see the opponent, but just relied on a thought to seriously injure the peak powerhouse of Sanhua.
The old city lord stood up from the ground tremblingly, then he took a long breath and shook his head.
"There is no need to panic. Since the opponent is an immortal, with our strength, how can we defeat him?
He didn't kill us just now, it was already our fate, now we are waiting for the judgment of the gods, don't worry too much."
After the old city lord finished speaking, he raised his head and looked at the roof. His eyes seemed to have penetrated the void and saw the stars in the sky, as if he wanted to find his own one among the stars in the sky to calculate his destiny.
Xiao Yu was meditating on the inn bed at this time. Suddenly, the ancient Maoshan jade hanging on his chest began to tremble.
Then, an urgent voice came into his mind.
"Xiao Yu, leave quickly. You have been found out by the city lord. Leave quickly."
The sudden sound made Xiao Yu tremble, and then he got up and rushed out quickly.
The weasel was sleeping soundly at this time, but suddenly he couldn't move his whole body, and was then put into the boundary stone by Xiao Yu.
Most of the major cities in the Penglai Secret Realm will not close their gates in the dark.
Even at this time, there was still a constant flow of people on the street.
Xiao Yu hurriedly walked from the inn to the street, and then went to the inn where he met the man with the hooked nose yesterday.
After leaving a message to the store, I quickly went outside the city.
The major cities in Penglai have extremely powerful protective formations, so Xiao Yu should leave the city first when the opponent does not find him, so that he can have the capital to escape.
When he walked to the gate of the city, Xiao Yu deliberately looked at the officers and soldiers, but there was nothing strange about those people, and they didn't seem to recognize him.
But the ghost corpse would not lie to him, so Xiao Yu continued to move forward. After entering a dense forest, he continued to run forward for dozens of miles, and then stopped at a reef.
"what happened?"
After seeing that there was no one around, Xiao Yu dropped a few formation flags around and felt a little relieved.
"The city lord used a mirror to see the scene of your murder.
If the aura I had left at that time hadn't dissipated, I'm afraid you would have been arrested by now!"
The ghost corpse said very plainly.
"Now that it has been discovered, why did the soldiers guarding the city let me out like this without investigating?"
Xiao Yu said in confusion.
This time the ghost corpse didn't answer in a hurry. It took about five minutes before he said in a deep voice.
"I have been exposed. I guess the city lord has reported my information to Penglai Celestial Immortal, so I will be very cautious when I show up in the future, and you should be extra careful as well."
