Yang Zheng was not surprised. He flicked his sleeves and made a "please" signal: "It's as expected by the city lord. In this case, let's go. The city lord is still waiting in the mansion."
"These friends of mine..." Xiao Kaitian pointed at Zhao Qixi and others: "We cannot stay here."
"What's so difficult about this?" Yang Zheng glanced at Jingxuan, it's just a small Taoist temple. Who dares to stop the people the city lord's palace wants? Moreover, the city lord personally ordered that Xiao Kaitian be invited to come over at all costs and bring a few more people there.
Not a big problem.
Moreover, if there is an emergency, these people can still be used as hostages in their hands, killing two birds with one stone.
Xiao Kaitian glanced at the people around him, and everyone nodded slightly, indicating that they agreed with his decision. In fact, this hand was also very dangerous. He was holding the City Lord's Mansion in his hand, but who knew whether he could really hold it.
"Let's go." After thinking for a while, Xiao Kaitian quickly made a decision. Yang Zheng jumped up, transformed into a kingfisher again, and flew high into the sky.
"Interesting," Yun Yi couldn't help but comment: "This is a transformation technique. I didn't expect to see it here. Xiao Kaitian, being with you is really interesting."
These words attracted vicious looks from everyone, especially Han Qing, Gongsun and Sun Ruyun. What is interesting? They were almost always worried.
The kingfisher drew a circle in the sky, and a line of light flowed through it, forming a closed loop. The strange patterns inside spread out to form a formation.
"Small space passage," Yun Yi sighed again: "This person has great magical powers."
Xiao Kaitian glanced at him. Yun Yi's ability to express his admiration must be quite good. This Yang Zheng seemed to be a talent, but he didn't know where the city lord came from.
He took the lead to fly up, followed by the others. The group of people disappeared into the formation and disappeared without a trace. After everyone entered, the kingfisher chirped and rushed into the formation, and then the formation shrunk to
A point of light disappeared in mid-air.
Time passed, and when everyone regained their sight again, they found that they were already in a group of palace-like buildings. This should be the city lord's palace.
"Please." Yang Zheng transformed into a human form again. He waved his hand and motioned for Xiao Kaitian to follow him. As for the others, he was not interested at the moment.
"I'll come as soon as I go," Xiao Kaitian nodded to everyone. He didn't know what was happening in front of him: "If there is a fight, you just run away."
When he said these words, he didn't care about the twitching of the corners of Yang Zheng's mouth. This Yang Zheng was also a monk at the Golden Core stage. No one on his side was his opponent. If he stayed, he would only die.
After he finished speaking, he stepped forward, followed Yang Zheng, and walked towards a hall-like building ahead. When he walked to the door of the hall, Yang Zheng bowed, and the door of the hall opened automatically.
There were shielding formations all around, and he had no idea what was going on inside the hall. Yang Zheng once again motioned for Xiao Kaitian to go in, but he stepped aside. Obviously, he was not qualified to participate in what was going on inside.
Seeing such a posture, a stone fell in Xiao Kaitian's heart. He stepped across the threshold and entered the main hall.
The main hall was empty, there was nothing. In the center of the hall, stood a huge statue, but it looked like a beautiful woman in palace clothes, but her face could not be seen clearly.
In front of the statue, stood a man wearing Yutian's blue robe. He slowly turned around when he heard the movement. This was a very immortal young man, but there was a hint of drunkenness in his eyes.
"Xiao Kaitian, I am the lord of Yedu Realm Market, Cao Zhi." He introduced himself casually, then turned around and looked at the statue.
"Hello, if your surname is Cao, it must be the surname of this country." Xiao Kaitian also paced and came behind Cao Zhi, seemingly completely unaware that he was facing a Nascent Soul monk.
Cao Zhi did not answer Xiao Kaitian's question. He looked at the statue with confusion in his eyes: "Do you know whose statue this is?"
Xiao Kaitian's divine source swept out. This hall contained some aura of prehistoric times. It was very ancient. It was obviously not built in Cao Zhi's era: "An ancient demon cultivator."
"Moxiu," a smile appeared on Cao Zhi's lips: "What a terrifying yet ridiculous title. Do you know, just your words alone give me reason to kill you."
"But you can't." Xiao Kaitian put his hands in his trouser pockets. He also raised his head and looked at the statue.
Cao Zhi turned his head to look at him, then slowly turned back: "You are right, I can't."
He paused as he spoke: "This is not a demon cultivator, but a member of the Luo Shen clan, the Yedu Realm Ruins, the real aborigines, the original owners, and she, the God of Luo Shui, is its ruler."
"When the Wei army invaded, I was still a general leading the army, and it was she who came out to negotiate with me." Cao Zhi's eyes shone with light: "So charming, so elegant, just one glance, I fell in love with her
Fucked her."
"I suspended the military's actions, oppressed, threatened and cajoled her, and finally made her mine, and promised her that we could be together forever."
"It's a pity that she is different from us. She becomes a king or a bandit. She became what we later called a demon cultivator. This is the history of the world of cultivation, a real but ridiculous history."
"Her request is very simple. She can sacrifice herself to fulfill our human monks. All she wants is to preserve the blood of her own people, that's all."
"I was moved by her sincerity and actively promoted the contract between the two parties, finally forcing my father to agree to the covenant. Unfortunately, we were both too young and underestimated the monks' desire for the Jie Rui territory and living space."
"Signing the contract was just a legitimate excuse for Wei's army to enter Yedu smoothly. You should be able to predict what happened immediately. All her Luoshui clan members were killed."
"I will never forget the way she looked at me for the last time. I wish I could turn into a ghost and be entangled with you for the rest of my life. This is what she said."
Cao Zhi also raised his head, with a smile on his face: "It's a pity that she didn't fulfill this oath, and she didn't become an unjust ghost and be entangled with me for life after life."
"I would rather see her turn into a ghost. In that case, I will definitely dedicate my blood and soul." As he said that, Cao Zhi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Did you hear a boring story?"
"It's quite boring," Xiao Kaitian almost dozed off: "Isn't it just that you deceived the love of a monster who is not the same species, and then you can't let go of it."
"Bang!" A storm flashed across the hall, and the two people's strength collided, causing the entire hall to shake.
"Believe it or not, I will kill you." Cao Zhi said with a ferocious face, his eyes red.
"Xin," Xiao Kaitian put on a defensive posture. The Nascent Soul monk's frontal attack was not something he could resist: "But if you kill me, your precious monster will be completely hopeless."
