Late at night, the night sky was as dark as ink, without stars or moon.
There has been a curfew in Yuejian City for a long time, and the city is completely dark, with only scattered lights on.
The streets and alleys in the city were closed, and even the brothels, restaurants and gambling houses that were lively at night were closed.
In the huge Yuejian City, except for groups of patrolling city guards, very few people came out to move around.
The atmosphere in the city was solemn and depressing, and even the night sky seemed to be covered with a layer of haze, making the people breathless and filled with fear and worry.
In the city lord's palace, the study room where Yunyao lived was still lit.
She is still busy in the study, handling official business in the city.
Ever since she came to Yuejian City, she had been busy every day for the past half month and could only rest in the middle of the night.
Especially today, Ji Tianxing proposed to transfer people from several villages and towns outside the city to the city. This is a major matter and must be handled with caution.
She was leaning over the table, reviewing the memorials and files on the table, sometimes writing furiously, sometimes frowning in thought.
Obviously, she is immersed in her work wholeheartedly, working hard for the people of Yuejian City, and just wants to maintain peace in the city.
A hundred steps away from the study room is Ji Tianxing's residence.
Their rooms were opposite each other, separated by a wide yard.
Although it was late at night, Ji Tianxing didn't rest.
He was standing by the window, looking towards the study room opposite, looking at Yun Yao's busy figure through the window.
"Yao Yao, you are indeed smart on the outside, cold on the outside and hot on the inside.
Everyone in the world regards you as a fairy in the sky who does not eat the fireworks of the world, and does not care about the seven emotions and six desires of the world and the suffering of the common people.
Only I know that you have a kind heart, a pure soul, and a fraternity that helps the common people."
He murmured silently in his heart, his eyes were full of tenderness, and there was a gentle smile on the corner of his mouth.
"Even if we are in troubled times, the Demon King is causing chaos, and the demons are causing trouble for the common people, I will protect you for the rest of my life and will never let you be harmed.
The Demon Emperor harms the world, so I will kill the Demon Emperor!
The demons are running rampant and harming the people of Li, so I will wipe out all the demons!"
Thinking of this, he secretly clenched his fists, and unyielding pride arose in his chest, surging and surging.
Unknowingly, he had been standing by the window for half an hour.
He was about to turn around and go back to bed to meditate, but suddenly he noticed that there was a warm feeling in his mind again.
That familiar feeling appeared again.
He quickly used his spiritual sense to explore and found that the Dzi Bead in his mind was flashing with white light again, like a rising flame.
He clearly sensed that the Heaven-Mending Bead was emitting invisible mysterious power and was extending into the night sky.
"The Dzi Bead has reacted again. Is something going to happen to the City Lord's Mansion?"
Ji Tianxing murmured in his heart and quickly sensed the changes in the Dzi Bead.
Soon, there was a throbbing in the depths of his soul, and an idea came to his mind.
"Tsukimijonan!"
He didn't understand why, he just felt that the Sky-Mending Pearl seemed to be guiding him and conveying some kind of idea to him.
So, he quietly walked out of the room and prepared to go to the south to take a look.
In order not to alert Yunyao and the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, he flew into the night sky silently and rushed towards the south at lightning speed.
"Whoosh!"
He was speeding through the night and saw that the Nancheng area was as dark as ink and there was no movement.
He immediately understood that the Dzi Bead was not guiding Nancheng, but the south of Yuejian City.
So, he flew over the South City Gate, left Yuejian City, and continued flying south.
Outside the south gate of Yuejian City is a plain with a radius of dozens of miles, which was originally a medicinal field for growing evening primrose.
But the medicinal fields have long been turned into ruins. Even under the dark night, the ravines and potholes on the ground can be clearly seen.
Ji Tianxing crossed the plains with a radius of dozens of miles, continued flying south, and soon crossed a mountain range and entered the mountains.
The mountains surrounding Yuejian City are not high and the hills are relatively gentle.
There are many plains and valleys in the mountains, where small towns and villages are located.
Ji Tianxing flew over the mountains, paying attention to the reaction of the Tianzhu as he flew on his way.
He soon discovered that the further south he flew, the stronger the feeling of warmth in his mind became, and the greater the reaction to the Dzi Bead.
"It seems that I am getting closer to the place guided by the Tianzhu."
Half an hour later, he flew more than 300 miles away, crossed several mountains, and passed several villages and towns.
When he crossed another mountain range, he saw a long and narrow valley behind the mountain.
There is a small town located in a valley with a radius of more than ten miles.
This is the town farthest from Yuejian City, called Yueluo Town.
The town is small, with only 2,000 households and a population of about 7,000 to 8,000.
As early as half a month ago, the city lord's palace sent a team of city guards to station in this small town.
Although the city guard only had a hundred people, it was barely enough to guard the town.
Under the dark night, the town was very quiet, with only a few scattered lights on.
The entrances and exits in the four directions of the town are guarded by more than a dozen city guards.
There is also a patrol team of more than ten people, wearing armor and carrying swords, patrolling the town all night long.
In the past two months, Yueluo Town has been peaceful, and no abnormal situations have occurred.
This place is far away from Yuejian City, so it is less affected by the evil poison puppets, and the people in the town are relatively stable.
But when Ji Tianxing came to the sky above Yueluo Town, he frowned and murmured to himself in a low voice: "According to the guidance of the Tianzhu, this is where it is."
He used his secret technique to hide his aura and quietly hid in the night sky above the town, overlooking the entire town from a high position.
Even though the night was dark, he could still clearly see the scene in the entire town after using Su Xin Magic Eye.
Rows of houses, several streets, and the few luxurious houses in the town all came into view.
He could clearly see the stray cats and dogs that appeared at night, as well as the city guards patrolling the town.
He hid in the night sky, patiently observing the situation in Yueluo Town, and waited silently.
Suddenly, he noticed a dark shadow emerging from a house on the east side of the town.
The black shadow cut through the night sky as fast as the wind, left the house in the blink of an eye, and got into a small alley.
This man is agile and moves extremely fast. He is also dressed in black and is very hidden in the night.
He quietly walked through the streets and flew towards the outside of the town. His whereabouts looked very suspicious.
Fortunately, Ji Tianxing stayed in the sky and could see all of this.
"In a small town with a few thousand people, a strong Tianyuan man who can fly in the air actually appears? There is a problem!"
He frowned and chased after him without hesitation, quietly following the black shadow.
After the black shadow left Yueluo Town, it flew towards the mountain peak to the east, and he quickly followed it.
