In the quiet street, two teams were hidden in the darkness, with only a five-man squad placed in the middle as bait.

Seeing the five people looking so nervous, someone couldn't help but question Xiao Feng, "Is this going to do any good? I'm worried that the monster won't come out."

Just as Xiao Feng was about to speak, a bloodcurdling scream came from the middle of the street.

This time, without any Qingzong disciples watching, the five were killed on the spot by the demonic beast.

On the other hand, they didn't even see a shadow of them, nor did they react at all.

The city guard, his face contorted with anger, approached the five-man squad and realized that they were all lifeless.

He originally planned to go back and settle accounts with Xiao Feng, but who knew that Xiao Feng was sitting cross-legged on the ground, using his spiritual power to search for the faintly visible figure of the demon beast.

In the short time it takes for an incense stick to burn, he stood up from the ground and pointed to the end of the alley: "Qingzong disciples, come with me. The city guards will take your people away. There is no need to patrol tonight."

As long as the Qingzong disciples don't leave, the City Never Sleeps is safe.

The city garrison commander watched as Xiao Feng led the Qingzong disciples away, realizing they had found the location of the demonic beast, and breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that asking them for help was the right thing to do."

At this moment, Xiao Feng led those around him slowly closer to the location he had sensed.

However, the faint aura gradually disappeared, which panicked Xiao Feng.

Those around him noticed something was off about his expression and moved closer: "Did you sense his location? The disciples of the Azure Sect are ready to be summoned at any time."

Now that they all know that the demonic beasts come and go without a trace, each of them used the Azure Sect Qi Refining Technique to create a barrier around themselves.

Even if the monsters came to their side, they would only be able to break down their barrier, but they would not be able to harm them.

Looking at the expectant faces of the Qingzong disciples, Xiao Feng lowered his head in guilt: "I just sensed the aura of a demonic beast here, but... it vanished into thin air."

After exchanging a few words, the Qingzong disciples looked at each other: "It shouldn't be that bad, right? How could a demon beast slip away so quietly in front of so many of us?"

Although they were just ordinary disciples of the Azure Sect, they were all cultivators, so it was not impossible for them not to detect even the slightest fluctuation of their aura.

Xiao Feng understood that they were all questioning him, and took a deep breath: "The speed of the demon beast is extremely terrifying. I'm afraid we can't even detect its trace with our naked eyes."

Suddenly, Xiao Feng turned his gaze to Shen Qingchen, and a plan began to take shape in his mind.

Fortunately, they insisted on keeping Shen Qingchen in the team despite everyone's objections; otherwise, they would have been completely helpless against the speed-type monsters this time.

Seeing that Xiao Feng remained motionless, someone around couldn't help but ask him, "So what are we going to do tonight? We can't just stay here and stand there doing nothing, can we?"

Without a target, they could only temporarily assume the duties of the city's garrison commander and patrol the city.

Xiao Feng divided the Qingzong disciples into groups of three and told them not to separate, as the demonic beasts were likely hiding in the shadows waiting for them to separate.

As long as they are all in the same place, they don't need to worry about monsters attacking them.

Before we knew it, the sky was gradually brightening.

The city guards arrived before Xiao Feng and his group with a number of guards, only to find that the demonic beast was nowhere to be seen.

Instantly, the defending general's heart sank: "You actually failed? I'm so disappointed in you."

Zhou Wei was about to step forward to explain, but Xiao Feng grabbed him and shook his head: "Without catching the monster, any further explanation is futile."

He understood that the people inside the city only cared about the results; they didn't care about the process at all.

Seeing that Xiao Feng showed no intention of explaining, the city garrison commander sneered, "It seems I'm not entirely confident in your strength."

The surrounding area could tolerate the complaints of the city's defenders, since they had indeed failed to capture the monster.

Now that the city's defenders have openly admitted their weakness, how could he possibly tolerate it?

The guard walked up to the city commander, his face full of anger: "We merely underestimated the speed of the demonic beasts, and you dare to question our strength?"

Xiao Feng originally thought that the two had just had a little argument and that the matter was over.

To everyone's surprise, the city guard drew his weapon from his back and said, "Let's see what you're made of."

Before anyone could react, the city guard had already swung his weapon down.

If the city's defenders hadn't been constantly watched, this attack would have likely taken half their lives.

He used the force of the impact to take a few steps back, then looked at the city guard with surprise: "You actually have the guts to attack us?"

Seeing the city guards attacking those around them, Xiao Feng couldn't help but remind them, "Withdraw your spiritual power; they are just ordinary people."

Using spiritual power to deal with ordinary people is like a dimensional reduction attack; they certainly can't bully people in such a way.

Hearing Xiao Feng sternly forbid him from using spiritual power, he looked at the city guard with anger on his face: "We will kill him with just our Qing Sect's sword techniques."

Having served as the city's garrison commander for so long, his combat prowess is naturally beyond question.

Xiao Feng watched the two exchange blows and couldn't help but laugh: "Without the help of spiritual power, they are no match for the city's defenders."

The Qingzong disciples were shocked to learn that Zhou Wei was no match for the city's defenders: "What? Zhou Wei is no match for an ordinary person like him?"

Hearing the whispers of the Qingzong disciples around him, he felt utterly humiliated and glared fiercely at the city guard: "Even without spiritual power, I still have the ability to kill you."

As soon as he finished speaking, he used the sword technique of the Azure Sect, continuously circling around the city guard.

The defending general only defended and did not attack. He understood that this was the most advantageous time in the area, and if the two clashed, he would only suffer losses.

Xiao Feng watched the two fighting from afar and learned a lot from the city's defender.

Don't be fooled by the fact that they don't possess spiritual power; their combat methods are exactly what I should learn.

The city's defenders, observing the decreasing speed of attacks around them, sneered, "Your speed is getting slower and slower. It seems... you are indeed inferior to us."

Hearing the city guard's blunt words, he was about to release his spiritual power when he noticed that Xiao Feng's gaze was fixed on him.

As disciples of the Azure Sect, they had no reason to use their spiritual power against ordinary people.

Besides, they came to Zili Kingdom on a mission, so how could they possibly kill the city's garrison commander on the side?

Just then, the city defenders launched an attack on the surrounding area. Their offensive was no weaker than the last, with each wave stronger than the last, making it difficult for those around them to even hold their weapons.

In just ten breaths, he drove back the surrounding area and back into the Qingzong's ranks.
