Chapter 168 Yaohua City (3)

When Ji Weihang stepped out of the door and prepared to look for Fu Xuan, a voice came from the side: "Is the thing I want ready?"

Turning around, she saw Ming Tianbao sitting on the branch of a big tree next to her, looking at her, as if he had been waiting here.

She took out the tree crown and threw it to Ming Tianbao. Ming Tianbao connected his mind to confirm the effect and said, "I knew I was right to find you."

She didn't say anything and was about to leave when she thought of something and turned back to invite him, "I'm going to Feiyan Tower, would you like to join me?"

Ming Tianbao was trying on the tree crown. When he heard this, he immediately agreed, "Okay." He took off the crown, put it away, and jumped off the tree.

She noticed that Ming Tianbao did not control his body when he landed on the ground, but merged into the shadow of the ground in an instant, and the sound disappeared.

"Let's go." Ming Tianbao took out a mask and put it on his face, then changed his clothes, turning himself into an ordinary monster.

"They always say it's unsafe. I've never been to Yaohua City as a demon. Now the situation is tense, and they won't even let me go out."

“Although there is nothing fun about going out, not wanting to go out and not being able to go out are two different concepts.”

Not believing Ming Tianbao's fabricated story, she just hummed and said, "We have an agreement. I will keep you alive."

Ming Tianbao nodded casually, not caring whether she would keep her promise.

Walking in the quiet garden, under the bright night sky, fluorescent butterflies that hide during the day and come out at night dance along the sweet shrubs planted on the roadside.

There is no yellow sand unique to Pingyao in the garden, the air is fresh and the breeze is gentle.

Ming Tianbao walked briskly and said, "How about we be straightforward? You invited me to join you because you want to know about the demon tribe, right? I can tell you the movements of the demon tribe, but in return, you have to tell me why you didn't kill Sister Lingxiu and why you didn't kill Gui Yan."

She said, "Yes."

Ming Tianbao smiled complacently and said, "According to the information sent back by our spies, the number of demons crawling out of the Demon Abyss has increased significantly recently. What's different from the past is that these low-level demons are not used as food by the high-level demons, but have joined the Demon Emperor and the various demon kings. The demon army is expanding rapidly."

She said, “Preparing for war?”

Ming Tianbao nodded slightly and continued, "In addition, at twilight hour today, a man escaped from Blood Killing City. He was being chased by many demons, but he escaped to the Strange Territory with the help of human undercover agents who helped him along the way.

“For this man, the demons chased him all the way out of the demon world.

"In the main city of Guiyu, Bai Yuechu, the adopted son of Bai Shenhuan, activated the city defense barrier and used the dark force cannon made by his master's wife to annihilate all the demons who dared to cross the border.

"Bai Shenhuan has said that if anyone dares to cross the border again, she will personally kill them in the demon world."

As if she hadn't heard the hint to herself, the young master's wife, Ji Weihang said, "The demons wouldn't chase after a man for no reason. He must be carrying important information."

He recalled that when he devoured the Insect King, he saw demons chasing people outside the Blood Killing City. Now, several hours have passed, but he has not heard any news of the border conflict.

——"The demons have clashed at the border and in the main city of Guiyu, but it has not been discussed until now. It must be because the news brought by the man might cause unrest, so Guiyu blocked it."

"Great." Ming Tianbao clapped his hands. "I wonder if you can guess what the news is?"

Ji Weihang had a guess in his mind, but he didn't say it out loud. Instead, he asked, "What's the news?"

Ming Tianbao blinked, looked ahead, changed the subject, and said, "We're at the door."

They had reached the front door.

The gatekeeper demon sat by the door dutifully, listening in all directions and keeping an eye on all directions.

After taking a look at them and recognizing Ming Tianbao's identity, she stood up instantly, stammered a few times, and sat down again under Ming Tianbao's gaze, but she felt a little uneasy. His gaze was still glued to them until they walked ten meters away.

"Do you know the previous Demon Emperor Ji Yuan?" Without paying attention to the gaze behind him, Ming Tianbao bought a skewer of barbecue and asked.

When they talk, they naturally block out other people to avoid leaking their conversation.

When Ji Weihang heard Ming Tianbao mention Ji Yuan, he knew that his guess might come true, but he didn't show it on his face. He said, "I know, Ji Ni's sister, Ji Chengyuan's mother."

"I don't know where Ji Ni got this secret recipe from, but it says that as long as a million lives are killed, Ji Yuan can be resurrected." Ming Tianbao took a bite of the barbecue and found it unpalatable, so he threw it away. His shadow floated up from the ground, accurately caught the barbecue skewers in the air, and silently returned to the ground.

People around were not surprised when they saw this, because this was a Ping Yao area, and there were all kinds of people and monsters.

A million lives in exchange for one life being resurrected? Ji Weihang felt that this plot was strangely familiar.

"Among them, the stronger the strength, the better the resurrection effect." Ming Tianbao smacked his lips and said, "Therefore, it is not enough to just kill mortals."

Turning to look at her, "Both the human race and the demon race are among her targets."

She said, “That’s why you just told me this.”

Facing such demons, the human and demon races have the same stance.

Ming Tianbao said, "Yes, but I didn't lie to you. It's your turn to speak."

She looked at Feiyan Tower not far away and said, "I'll tell you later."

Ming Tianbao looked ahead at the crowd, saw people fighting in a group, and picked up a piece of green fruit from the fruit stand next to him, saying, "Okay."

After taking a bite of the spiritual fruit, he found it unsweet, so he threw it to Shadow, squinted his eyes at the people fighting on the ruins of Feiyan Tower, and sighed, "Aren't these people here to fight me? Why are they fighting together?"

Ji Weihang watched Fu Xuan wandering around in the attack, a smile appeared in her eyes, and Xiao Xuan really understood what she meant.

…

"Stop hitting me, what a shame!"

After a flash of cold light passed by and almost injured the mortal watching the show outside the barrier, Wan Shoujing, the most senior member of the Wanjian Sect present, finally got angry. He formed a formation out of nowhere and separated the people fighting.

"This person dared to offend the ancestors of Yingtian." The white-haired and golden-eyed Yingtian Sect youth was emitting cold air all over his body. He stared coldly at the woman in the formation next to him and said, "I must teach her a lesson."

The woman she was staring at looked a little guilty, but she spoke confidently: "Really?! Just because I said something wrong, can the Yingtian Sect kill people in the street!?" She said to the demons who were watching around, "Do you think this is reasonable?! Lynching has been banned for a long time!"

The transsexuals around nodded silently, not realizing that the "lesson" had been replaced by "murder in the street". The fight just now was so fierce that they all felt that Tutu was definitely aiming to kill people!

There were brave ones among the crowd saying, "That's right! How can they kill people in the street? Isn't that what evil practitioners do?"

"You!" He glared at the woman, then looked at the people around him at a loss, "You guys!" Dongqing, who was coming down the mountain for the first time, was so angry that he couldn't speak. He even forgot to defend himself. He just glared at the culprit fiercely, thinking about something in his mind.

It was clearly because she saw that woman using a ground-level spiritual treasure against her that she attacked so harshly! So angry, so angry, so angry! Ying Tian Shun Yun... Qi Hun An He...

Gui Yan, who had just taken sides, began to smooth things over, "Okay, okay, both sides are wrong in this matter." Seeing Dong Qing glaring at her, she smoothly turned to the woman - Fu Xuan, and said, "But it was all caused by you. Fellow Daoist, you have to apologize."

Bai Jiyue, who was also taking sides, looked at the ruins of Feiyan Tower and sighed, "How could Feiyan Tower be destroyed? How many spiritual stones should I pay for this? I don't have that many spiritual stones on me."

Junior sister was distressed, so Wan Shoujing naturally said: "Everyone who took action should pay compensation."

Of the people from the seven major sects present, the only ones who didn't take action were Wan Shoujing, who set up a barrier to avoid accidental injuries, and Lingze Sect's Renlin, who didn't know what was going on. The other six people all took action.

Including Fu Xuan, who provoked the dispute, there were seven people in total.

When it comes to compensation, the Feiyanlou service staff who had been invisible just now came out from somewhere and said with a smile: "Since this Young Lady Jiang is our honored guest, you don't need to pay too much, just 7,000 spirit stones."

Young Master Jiang? Everyone turned their eyes to the ordinary-looking Fu Xuan, trying to figure out his relationship with Jiang Xuan, the owner of Feiyan Tower.

The number of seven thousand spirit stones is also very subtle. If it is distributed among seven people, each person will get exactly one thousand spirit stones.

At this time, Fu Xuan seemed to calm down and said, "I was wrong. I offended you first. I will pay the largest share, four thousand." She said to Dong Qing, who was glaring at her angrily, with a sincere look, "I resented the way of heaven because of a personal matter. I was so upset that I took it out on the ancestors of the Yingtian Sect. It was indeed my fault."

Seeing her sincerely apologize, Dong Qing was stunned for a moment, thinking that he was too angry just now and attacked the weak, which was not in line with the sect rules. The other party was also excusable, so he said awkwardly: "...I am also wrong."

After the group paid the compensation, the service staff of Feiyan Tower placed the spirit stones they paid as compensation on the ruins, triggering the formation. The spirit stones turned into spiritual energy and disappeared, and a brand new Feiyan Tower rose from the ground.

Someone else pushed open the window and looked down, "Hey, it's open." Looking at the crowd below, he raised his voice and asked, "What happened?"

Someone pushed the door open and poked his head in to ask, "I couldn't come out just now, and I thought something was wrong."

The service staff of Feiyan Building smiled and introduced to the astonished onlookers: "This is the latest research of our Feiyan Building, 'Swallow Passing Without Trace'. It can move the entire building into the space-time rift at the moment of battle to avoid being affected by the battle."

The onlookers praised:

"Awesome! Feiyan Tower is worthy of being the number one intelligence agency in Jijiang Continent!"

"What do you mean first? The Emperor Shadow Tower in the demon world is definitely more informed." Some demons were dissatisfied.

"If you don't sell information to the outside world, what's the point of being well-informed?"

“…”

Seeing that the focus had shifted, the few people who seemed to have helped Feiyan Tower with extra advertising looked at each other and smiled to let bygones be bygones.

Wan Shoujing had dispersed the formation long before they were ready to fight again. Bai Jiyue pulled Fu Xuan into Feiyan Tower and said, "Young Master Jiang, I want to talk to you."

"Me too."

"Me too."

“…”

The five people who said the same words in unison looked at each other, ran after him, and wanted to be the second person to talk to Fu Xuan.

Watching the group of people enter Feiyan Tower, Ming Tianbao said thoughtfully: "Is this the result you want?"

Ji Weihang asked, "What do you think was special about the battle just now?"

"Are you still testing me?" Ming Tianbao glanced at her and said, "Among the six people fighting the Teng Snake, Bai Jiyue and Gui Yan were holding back to take sides, while Yun Ruisi, Yao Pingshi, and Mu Jieqiu were acting because of a certain magical treasure. Only the guy from Yingtian Sect was really furious... I see."

Ming Tianbao understood, "Is this your answer?"

Ji Weihang walked towards Feiyan Tower and said, "If you think it is, then it is."

Looking at her back, Ming Tianbao seemed to be thinking about something.

The person who takes sides is naturally someone who has a past relationship with Tengshe and recognizes his identity.

Bai Jiyue is related to Ji Weihang's enemy Wanqi Shuang, and Gui Yan is also one of his enemies.

How did they know a little-known character like Tengshe? It was most likely through Ji Weihang.

If so, they must have other connections with Ji Weihang.

This answers my own question: Why didn't I kill Zhong Lingxiu, and why didn't I kill Gui Yan?

What's above revenge?

What is hidden behind them?

Ming Tianbao thought more and more about it and found it more and more interesting. He followed Ji Weihang and said:

"Have you joined some mysterious organization to establish additional connections? Can you take me with you? Although I am a demon, I don't have to be one."
