Chapter 825 Something happened in Pingliang

The four of them came to the city lord's mansion. Situ Reading

There was already a fifth-level master of the virtual realm waiting at the door. When he saw Ye Feng and others, he nodded with a stern expression and led them into the mansion.

However, this person did not go to the main hall in front, but led the four people to turn left and right and entered the depths of the city lord's palace.

"He...where is he taking us?"

Seeing Cao Lei and Ye Feng's frowning expressions, Wu Xiaoyu couldn't hold back anymore and asked quietly.

"prison!"

Ye Feng whispered two words in his mouth.

"How do you know? Did he send a message to you?" Wu Xiaoyu had a puzzled look on his face.

Ye Feng shook his head. Isn't it obvious enough?

Nothing happened in the city. The city lord Duan Qingjiang summoned them at this time as if facing a formidable enemy. There must be something wrong with the demon sect spies he captured. Where would they go if they didn't go to prison?

Sure enough, the group of people walked some distance further, and when they looked up, they saw a dark building in front of them.

The entire building seemed to be made of fine iron. There was only a dark, narrow doorway in the middle that could only allow one person to pass through. Apart from that, there were other doors and windows.

The city lord Duan Qingjiang was standing in front of the building, looking ashen and confused.

When he saw Ye Feng and others approaching, Duan Qingjiang sighed as if he saw a savior, and walked forward to greet them with a depressed expression.

"People ran away!"

"What's going on?" Cao Lei asked angrily.

"I don't know, either. I was fine last night. Someone just came to report that Zhang Taining, Su Moyan and two other spies were missing..."

Ye Feng and the other four entered the building one after another.

As soon as he set foot inside, Ye Feng felt that his body was floating, and all his energy seemed to have been drained. It was so light and uncomfortable that it made people uncomfortable.

He glanced around and saw that there were only two corpses inside, both of which were killed by a sharp sword through the heart. Other than that, there were no signs of a fight. According to Duan Qingjiang's explanation, these were the two warriors of the fourth level of the virtual realm whom he sent to guard the prison.

This black building in the palace of the Lord of Pingliang City was refined by a master of weapon refining from the powerful Northern Han Dynasty. Under the influence of special inscriptions, all the energy in the warrior's body will become ineffective, so there is no need to worry about the prisoner doing anything strange.

There are city lord's palace guards stationed outside the prison. If there is any disturbance, they will be alerted immediately.

But last night, Su and Zhang escaped mysteriously, and the people in the escort didn't even hear any movement.

It was obvious that it was not the four of them who killed the guards and escaped from the black building on their own, but someone assisted them. Moreover, Ye Feng could even infer that this traitor was from the city lord's palace and even had a certain reputation. Otherwise, it would be impossible to do this so lightly.

Duan Qingjiang specially sent two people to guard the prison. There is no doubt that the two guards who were killed should have strong cultivation.

Since they were all killed by a sharp sword through the heart, there was only one possibility, the murderer, leaving them unsuspecting.

There is a certain reputation in the city lord's palace, and the guards are unsuspecting. After thinking about it, it seems that the only person who meets this condition is the city lord Duan Qingjiang.

Ye Feng and Cao Lei looked at each other, and instantly cast their sharp eyes on Duan Qingjiang's face.

"You...are not doubting me!"

Duan Qingjiang's face was filled with despair and remorse: "Had I known this, I should have killed them at all costs, but if I had really killed them at that time, you would probably have suspected that this city lord killed someone and silenced them, right?"

"Now that the four bastards have escaped, the special envoy from a powerful country will be here soon. What should I do...?"

"The city lord specially invited these few here, not to ask them to do something for the city lord, but just to invite the four of them to bear witness for the city lord in the future. In any case, I cannot absolve myself of the blame for this matter, but I Duan Qingjiang has absolutely nothing to do with the Demon Sect."

"I cut off the Qingjiang River, and I would like to swear as a member of the Northern Han Dynasty royal family. If what I just said is half-truth, I will be struck by five thunders from the sky, and I will never be reincarnated."

Duan Qingjiang regained his momentum, raised his hands and swore in a cautious manner.

Looking at his appearance, he does not seem to be faking it.

"You guys...let's go."

After making the oath, Duan Qingjiang waved his hand helplessly.

Ye Feng and the others can probably come to the conclusion that the city lord has nothing to do with this matter. However, except for himself, the city lord of Pingliang and several of his capable men have died. There are even other spies in the city lord's palace. No one in Pingliang City knows. How many people are in collusion with the Demon Sect?

Indeed, as he said himself, it is hard to escape the blame.

He was in charge of one side, but he treated the people unkindly, and allowed his subordinates to collude with the Demon Sect. This alone could not lead to the evaluation of being ignorant and incompetent.

As for how he would deal with the special envoys sent by the Imperial Court of the Northern Han Dynasty and Chidori Zhai, and how he would explain to them, he did not care about Ye Feng and others. Even if they wanted to help, they could not help.

The people had already run away, but Ye Feng didn't think he had the ability to help Duan Qingjiang arrest the four of them again.

After hearing this, the four of them were unwilling to stay in Pingliang City and stir up the troubled waters. Ye Feng, Cao Lei and others nodded, turned around and left the city lord's mansion.

After a short discussion, they decided to leave Pingliang City and head south along the way.

Pingliang is located in the west of the Northern Han Dynasty. From Pingliang to the south, it enters the territory of the Western Tang Dynasty. As for the saying "Megatron Tiannan", after Ye Feng's long-term investigation, he has already locked a target - located in the southern border of Yuanwu Continent. The southern home of the land.

The Nan family has been in the southern border of Yuanwu for thousands of years. It is said that it has inextricable connections with the Tianji Palace. Its strength is no less than that of an ordinary third-grade sect. The ancestor of the Nan family is a king-level warrior. Obviously, he is not Yi Yu. generation.

But no matter what, it was related to the life and death of his father Ye Tian, and Ye Feng had to go there no matter what.

Going from the Northern Han Dynasty to the Southern Qin Dynasty requires passing through part of the Western Tang Dynasty. Cao Lei and Wu Xiaoyu are determined to go to the powerful Western Tang Dynasty to eliminate demons and defend the Tao, so as to earn more points.

The four of them are still on the way...

Although Ye Feng and the others left, the matter in Jiakou Village was not over.

Just when the sky was bright and the sun was about to rise, the vitality penetrated into the body of the magician Hei Ai by the attack of the king-level master was about to move, causing Hei Ai's entire body to begin to melt, and the skin and flesh on his body spread out like mist, constantly moving towards falling off.

It looked like a wax figure near a fire.

Just as the black mist was dying, five more veiled figures, like ghosts, jumped into the Jingshan Canyon at a strange speed.

The current person seems to be only at the fourth level of virtual realm in terms of cultivation, and is not as good as the two veiled warriors following him.

But whether it was his walking momentum or the respectful movements and expressions of the people behind him, this man was undoubtedly the leader of this team.

After passing through the Jingshan Canyon, the masked man did not enter the Jingkou Village where the clouds had been dispersed. Instead, he was slightly stunned. After showing a trace of caution in his eyes, he headed straight to the rear right, where the darkness was. The cave he was hiding in flew away.

Judging from his familiar appearance, this is obviously not his first time here...
