Chapter 453 Entering the City Lord's Mansion and Capturing the Master

"That's it. Apart from the fact that the space anomaly cannot be explored, and it is a case of powerlessness, there are really no clues in other aspects."

Sheng Zhaoshui smiled bitterly, sighed and said: "To be honest, I would rather encounter a bunch of enemies chasing after me as soon as I come here, and just try to follow the clues. Now, it is obvious that the strongest ones are just some weak genius monks. It’s so ordinary that it makes people feel helpless!”

Hearing this, Du En said after careful consideration: "Is this Qingxuan Immortal Realm really so unbearable?"

The Dark God also flashed his eyes: "Looking at the ordinary people's residence here, the population size should be quite large, and lotus flowers can grow even in the mud. After years of accumulation, it is impossible that there are only weak geniuses of this level, right?"

"Because what can I say about the atmosphere here? It pays too much attention to personal gains and losses. For outstanding juniors, even if they are from the same faction, once they sense that there is a threat to their status, they will take cruel measures in advance, resulting in many outstanding people. Characters die prematurely and cannot grow.”

Sheng Zhaoshui has obviously explored this, and he said with a bit of regret: "Also, because the inheritance background is too ordinary, there are no treasure books, the code books are rare, and the foundation of spiritual energy is too thin, plus there are already Monopolization by all parties, tacit understanding and other factors, in short, it is difficult for the latecomers to find any way to break the situation, because no matter how talented a genius is, it is difficult for a woman to make a meal without rice..."

"Where is Tianjiao? If it is Tianjiao, it should be able to bring the final impact."

Du En continued to ask questions.

Sheng Zhaoshui shook his head: "I haven't found any traces of geniuses appearing in the past ten thousand years. Maybe it's because of this star realm that local geniuses won't appear."

Isn’t this where the doubt comes in?

As soon as the two thought of this, Sheng Zhaoshui looked at them, realized something, and couldn't help but complain: "Also, don't forget that the genius you are thinking of is Chinese cabbage. Normally, whether it is natural or acquired, Tianjiao These are situations that only happen once in ten thousand years, and with the situation in this star realm, even those who are determined cannot gain accumulation and have no foundation at all.”

"In other words, there is some kind of suppression set by the Supreme, which prevents geniuses from being born, and it is also because of the Supreme that the stars' spiritual veins shrink, and the resources are insufficient to accumulate and accumulate the geniuses."

Duan quickly accepted and stated the conclusion directly.

But An Shen was a little dazed.

This is actually not to blame for his behavior, because his hometown of the birth star realm is an extreme special case. It is a special case that Zhenjun Fuyi exhausted hundreds of stars and star realms to accumulate so many talented people there!

In fact, the situation in the Qingxuan Star Realm is actually closer to the state of the normal fifth-level star realm, with the peak being only weak currents and normal geniuses.

The Queguang Star Realm that Du En had visited before was relatively close, but it was still relatively unique among the fifth-level star realms.

——Because there is a lot of heritage left by the predecessors, not only strong geniuses appear frequently, but also the near-extremely powerful geniuses like the great monk Mo Ju.

As for Chang Lingfeng's kind of tragic human demon, it is a different kind of situation.

"However, Sheng Zhaoshui, you must have made some assumptions, otherwise you wouldn't have stayed in Jiuyun City to form corresponding landing coordinates."

Duane speaks his mind and doesn't mince words.

"Don't say it so harshly, I am also a senior brother of the same generation after all!"

Sheng Zhaoshui said this with some hesitation and his eyes flickered: "Actually, it's not that there is any speculation, but based on the situation of the immortal cultivation world in various places in this world, it is found that the quality of the skills here in Jiuyun City is slightly higher. Dot."

"To put it simply, I can't find any other abnormal points. I can only look at a somewhat suspicious place and try to catch a rabbit?"

"Yes, that's it, otherwise I wouldn't have the time to drink here."

Really?

I don't believe it.

The attitude of one God and one person is obvious.

They looked at each other again and nodded.

"In that case, let's find out a little bit."

"Let's go straight to Master Jiuyun."

There are no good clues between the two. It is better to take action than Sheng Zhaoshui wasting time like this.

Then, they stared at Sheng Zhaoshui silently, letting him reluctantly put a table of drinks and dishes into his storage bag, and then took back the map.

"So who is Master Nine Clouds in general?"

"Just an ordinary bad person, not a good person anyway."

"In this case, you can be a little more aggressive in your behavior."

The dialogue continued, and the action was carried out vigorously and resolutely.

The city has a radius of a hundred miles, and the city lord's palace occupies only twenty. It is actually still some distance away from where they are, about seventy or eighty miles.

Out of caution, he did not scan his consciousness too wantonly.

So it was only after they blinked that they actually saw the city lord's palace.

Because they have already arrived in front of the city lord's mansion.

The east gate is towering, painted in vermilion, with a majestic lintel that bends down, giving it a formidable appearance.

The most important thing is that on the left edge of the archway not far in front of the door, there are still three corpses hanging slightly at the moment, swaying slightly in the wind, making people who pass by from afar can't help but bend down and humbly, letting the city lord guarding the door. The government soldiers held their heads high and their chests high.

"Very fresh corpses. One is seventy-three years old, another is forty-two years old, and one is only eighteen years old. They were all in the Qi refining period during their lifetimes. None of them had perfect Qi refining. The tallest one is the eighteen-year-old one. Eighth level of Qi refining.”

Du En glanced at the three corpses that were obviously low-level casual cultivators, and already knew all the basic information.

The source of life has not dried up, which proves that it died recently.

His eyes were calm and he moved towards Sheng Zhaoshui.

It seemed like he was questioning, more like Gu Jing Wubo.

The guy who had been so careless before and was secretly sighing at Du En's skill couldn't help but shrink his neck slightly, and a sense of nervousness arose spontaneously, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that he had changed so much.

But they are much stronger than when they faced each other before, and just looking at each other like that makes people's hearts beat!

Of course, he did not forget to explain a little: "It's not that I don't want to take action, but why should I take action?"

As he said this, Sheng Zhaoshui narrowed his eyes slightly and his frivolous smile faded slightly. His true nature seemed to emerge from the layers of secluded water.

"That's right."

Right to what?

Duan didn't say.

He didn't seem to care about this at all. In one move, he had already stepped into the city lord's palace. With a slight release of his consciousness, he quietly locked onto the target person.

Sheng Zhaoshui, who deliberately took half a step slowly, felt relieved in his heart, so he sent a message to An Shen Lingjing: "It really scared me just now, but such a thing, in Qingxuan, in Immortal sects are happening all over the place. Even if I really help them once, what real problem will they be able to solve?"

"Don't neglect doing good deeds because they are small. Maybe they are this kind of people. For him, well, if you don't see it, let's not mention it. If you see it and you can do it, you will naturally take action."

"them?"

Sheng Zhaoshui glanced at the surrounding city, nodded slightly in recognition, and was keenly aware of them. The Dark God's words were a bit strange, and it didn't seem to include himself, nor did it seem to include the people on the fifth peak of the sect.

Before he could continue to think about it, An Shen had already followed and took that half step.

Regarding the corpse hanging on the archway, except for some changes in his eyes, there was no obvious change in emotion.

"Is my understanding correct? But when did such a person who cares about gains and losses come to the fifth peak?"

With this murmur in his heart, Sheng Zhaoshui also took steps.

It sounds like there was a delay, but in fact, the three of them arrived at Master Jiuyun's location, the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, at about the same time.

"Asshole!"

The city lord, Master Jiuyun, is a majestic man with a square face and long beard. He is dressed in gorgeous clothes like a crown robe. He is currently sitting on the high chair of His Majesty, shouting and cursing at the people kneeling at the bottom of the steps.

"I know I'm guilty! I hope you'll be forgiven!"

The people at the lower level are not as well-equipped as the soldiers in the city outside the mansion. They only wear a sword. But in fact, from the clothes to the sword, the quality is far higher than those of armor and spears, and they are all fourth-level things.

Therefore, this is obviously a close guard like the inner guard, with good cultivation and loyalty, and his current attitude is natural.

Regardless of whether you are wrong or not, admit your mistake first!

As a result, Master Jiuyun's expression softened slightly, he put away his thunderous anger, and said: "I arranged for you to be the personal guard of the traitor, but you did not play the role of admonishment as you should, but fortunately, the follow-up Tong Bing was quite timely and acted decisively, so I will only fine you ten years of salary as a warning to others!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

The guard quickly thanked and kowtowed.

It's just ten years' salary, which is not painful at all, not to mention the confiscation of an ordinary salary. As a guard of the city lord's palace, he is highly valued, and he has many other ways to make money.

He was also a human being, and although he seemed loyal, he couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

So I was even more grateful.

Master Jiuyun glanced at this emotion, nodded slightly, and then thought of his traitor who robbed the female cultivator, his face darkened again, and said: "Lock up that traitor and confine him for ten years. He will not be allowed to leave until he breaks through the current level of cultivation." close!"

"yes!"

The guard responded, but hesitated a little, and knelt down to ask for instructions: "The female Qi refining cultivator who was snatched away by the young master..."

"Cut the grass and roots, what will she do with her?"

Master Jiuyun said matter-of-factly, then suddenly thought of something, paused, and said, "Forget it, let's wait a little longer."

"yes."

The guard responded, but also sensed his lord's thoughts, and immediately said something nice: "Although the young master seems to be more reckless this time, in the end he is just eager to please your lord. I know you want to get married as soon as possible." Lingen’s grandson…”

"You talk too much, get out!"

"Yes, yes."

The guard smiled and stepped back to convey Master Jiuyun's will.

Master Jiuyun twirled his long beard, and after his subordinates left, his face showed a trace of calmness. It seemed that the other party's words still spoke to his heart, making his mood turn from gloomy to sunny.

As for what happened to those at the bottom of Qi Refining, he didn't care at all!

Then, his expression froze.

"Now that you've finished talking about your business, it's time to talk about our business."

As Du En spoke so loudly, the silhouettes of the two of them suddenly appeared in front of and on both sides of Master Jiuyun.

Before he knew it, he had been lifted and dropped to the ground in front of the steps.

Cold sweat broke out, but Master Jiuyun was also a hero. He immediately activated his magic power, and the power of the early stage of divine transformation was about to burst out, flying around the surroundings, and triggering various arrangements in the city lord's palace...

"I really can't understand the situation."

Du En raised his hand, as fast as lightning, and patted him lightly on the head. Immediately, the palace was shattered, his cultivation collapsed, his origin was wiped out, and a soul was caught on the spot like a shrimp.

"As you just said, compared to the True Lords, they are not too vicious, so do you know soul-searching skills?"

Hearing such calm and matter-of-fact words, Master Jiuyun was still conscious and terrified. He wanted to beg for mercy, but he couldn't say anything. He was completely controlled by the other party.

Du En was looking at Sheng Zhaoshui.

The Source Saint Eye is not omnipotent. Although it can see a person's life experience, it is only those things that are profound enough to be recorded in the source of life, such as when the cultivation level has improved and broken through, what elixir has been taken, what serious injuries or bad moves have been suffered, etc., which are biased towards the physical life itself.

For those things that he knows, sees, hears, and remembers in his mind, heart, and soul, he can't see them, so he needed to ask the three demon hunters he rescued before. Now that he has captured Master Jiuyun, of course he has to ask for help to get detailed information.

If there is no such skill, he can only waste some time to interrogate him.

It's just that it's very inefficient to do so, and if Master Jiuyun hides something, or even deliberately does something bad, and mixes in wrong information, it's not pretty.

"How could I use such evil means?"

Sheng Zhaoshui was dissatisfied, and his tone was quite exaggerated. He felt that he was slandered, but then he changed the subject, "But I think I'm quite capable in asking people for information. Give this soul to me, and it will take about half a day to make him open his heart."

Listening to this casual and even familiar words, as if he wanted to make friends with him, Master Jiuyun was only afraid.

Do you dare to believe it? !

He didn't dare!

Du En felt that this was still a little slow, so he looked at the Dark God again.

He didn't refuse to be humble in the long prism mirror: "I can search the soul, let me do it."

No, you are really an exception on the fifth peak?

Sheng Zhaoshui was a little stunned and frowned secretly.

Could it be that after so many years, the situation has already undergone drastic changes that he didn't know about?

In the old understanding here, a person like An Shen, who obviously has a criminal record and masters the unorthodox method of soul searching, normally would not be accepted by the quasi-master Chang Meng!

——In the past, when facing those who were in the immortal gate and had to stand in the team, he seemed a little fussy and needed to ask about the specific past and make sure that they did not cross the bottom line before accepting them.

But now...
