Chapter 980: Eliminating the Rebellion

Then he saw that the transparent light curtain with strong spiritual pressure was the protective formation in the city lord's palace.

Its power is so powerful that even if a master at the Golden Core stage enters it, there is absolutely no chance of survival. Even if a strong person at the Nascent Soul stage breaks through, it will not be able to break through it in a short time.

Seeing this scene, everyone present suddenly had different expressions.

Most of the garrison monks looked normal.

But some people with deep thoughts have slightly evasive eyes.

Long Aotian and Qi Mo, as if they had received some kind of instruction, suddenly moved their bodies and surrounded the garrison commander Yan Shoucheng faintly in the middle.

At the same time, Qin Tian also slowly turned around, looked at him and said with a very serious tone:

"May I ask Senior Brother Yan, where were you when Qin was assassinated?"

Hearing this, Yan Shoucheng's eyes flashed with panic, but it quickly disappeared, and then he said apologetically:

"For the record, City Lord, my subordinates were patrolling the outer city area when the incident occurred. Therefore, after receiving the news of the assassination, there will inevitably be some delays on the road. I hope your forgiveness, Lord City Lord!"

After saying that, Yan Shoucheng did not forget to bow and bow, as if he felt guilty.

However, Qin Tian's eyes turned cold when he saw this, and he continued to ask with a serious expression:

"I would like to ask why the garrison, which is responsible for maintaining order when there was such a fierce fighting in the city, arrived so late collectively?"

After hearing this, Yan Shoucheng on the other side remained calm and said in a seemingly helpless tone:

"City Lord, due to the recent assassination of the previous City Lord, the city is really not peaceful. Therefore, brothers have heavy inspection tasks, and it is inevitable that some of them will not respond in time!"

"If the city lord is dissatisfied and his subordinates are willing to be punished alone, please don't embarrass these brothers who have been through life and death!"

As he spoke, Yan Shoucheng's face was full of righteousness and awe-inspiring, and he looked completely heroic and considerate of his subordinates.

Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, he was immediately echoed by those present.

It can also be seen that as the leader, Yan Shoucheng has a very high prestige on weekdays.

Many senior officers of the garrison came forward and begged for mercy:

"To report to the City Lord, although Commander Yan is not good at words, he is loyal to his duties and is even more loyal to the sect. I hope the City Lord can be more generous!"

"Report to the city lord, we are willing to be punished together!"

"Lord City Lord, please have mercy!"

.....................

Seeing this situation, Qin Tian couldn't help but curl up the corner of his mouth, and ignored many pleas for mercy. Instead, he said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone:

"Oh? Since Commander Yan is so dedicated to his duties, why are the killers of the Demon Sect Wusheng Hall sneaking into the city, but the garrison is not aware of it?"

As soon as these words came out, the originally noisy scene suddenly fell silent.

Yan Shoucheng was speechless for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses and said with a "shocked" look:

"What? This is happening? This demon sect is so rampant and dares to plant killers in our Dao Sect Immortal City? This is an oversight by my subordinates. I hope the Lord of the City will punish me!"

After hearing this, Qin Tian smiled meaningfully:

"An oversight? I don't think so?"

When Yan Shoucheng heard this, his eyes couldn't help but become even more panicked.

Qin Tian's eyes turned cold, and his tone turned cold and he asked:

"The reason why the garrison was unable to rescue them in time was because Senior Brother Yan had already ordered that most of the elites in the inner city be transferred to the outer city for inspection in advance! And the reason why you didn't want to go to the Juxian Tower banquet with you was because It provides opportunities for the killer and also facilitates his removal of suspicion afterwards!”

"So from the beginning, you have known about the assassination for a long time, and you even personally participated in it. Including the assassination of the previous city lord, you are inseparable from it!"

"May I ask Senior Brother Yan, is what Mr. Qin said right?"

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked.

Some astute people reacted quickly.

Even the people who had originally begged for mercy gradually realized what was happening, and all of them remained silent, no longer daring to speak randomly.

As for Yan Shoucheng on the opposite side, he couldn't help but his face changed wildly. He no longer regained his previous calmness. His eyes were full of panic and he said:

"You...you have suspected me for a long time. Were you deliberately testing me before?"

After hearing this, Qin Tian showed a sarcastic look and said with a sigh:

"Even the dignified Lord of the Immortal City is dead, but as the commander of the garrison who controls order, you are still alive and well. Isn't this a strange thing in itself?"

When Yan Shoucheng heard this, his face turned pale, and his eyes flickered slightly.

There were even several high-ranking officials of the Jindan stage of the garrison who also had evasive eyes.

But at this moment, Qin Tian gave the order without hesitation, and shouted in a cold and majestic tone:

"Yan Shoucheng colluded with foreign enemies to harm his fellow disciples. This is a heinous and unforgivable crime. According to the sect's rules and regulations, he will be killed on the spot without mercy! Anyone who dares to resist orders and disobey will be punished according to the sect's rules!"

As soon as the words fell, Long Aotian and Qi Mo, who had been waiting for a long time, took action without hesitation. They each used the power of the Golden Evil to form a beam of light, and struck at Yan Shoucheng's key point with extreme speed.
