A few minutes ago.
Outside the restaurant, two strange groups were engaged in a fierce battle, which Xia Tianqiong watched with great interest from the doorway.
Suddenly, he frowned and looked up.
He had been using his Shadow Teleportation perception ability, so he naturally knew that there were six more strange creatures hiding on the rooftop.
Although these six eerie shadows resembled the Tree Demon Clan, it can be determined that they were actually Leng family guards in disguise.
They suddenly moved toward the room where Xia Tianqiong lived, which alerted him.
These guys were indeed after him.
After a moment's thought, an idea suddenly came to mind.
So he teleported back to his room, took the substitute with him, and left the guards empty-handed.
He transformed into the appearance of the Tree Demon Clan, created five clones using the clone mirror, stood on the rooftop, and deliberately staged that scene to make the Tree Demon Clan believe that the Leng family was framing them, thereby escalating the conflict.
After both sides suffered heavy losses, he secretly followed the Tree Demon Clan all the way to the wilderness.
Seeing the Peach Tree Ghost sitting alone in a clump of grass, he harbored evil intentions.
Sister Tao was severely injured and her reactions became sluggish.
By the time I felt the touch on my shoulder, it was too late.
Without making a sound, she fell into a coma and was then sucked into the mirror space by Xia Tianqiong.
Xia Tianqiong didn't linger for a moment and immediately teleported away.
Five or six trees nearby sensed a fluctuation of nether energy, and then Sister Peach's aura disappeared.
They were startled and searched around, but found nothing.
"It might be the fake Leng Manjin who escaped before. Everyone be careful. Stay back to back and don't separate."
Walnut Tree Ghost is the smartest one besides Peach Sister.
Xia Tianqiong didn't leave at this moment either. He originally wanted to launch a sneak attack on a few more people, but now it seems that's not possible. So he can only find another target.
In mirror space.
Sister Tao was beaten up by Huang Yu and the Hanging Ghost together until the ghost was on the verge of collapse before they stopped. Then she was firmly bound by the Heavenly Rope.
Huang Yu also searched his body and took everything from him.
The Ghostly Pool was indeed on it; this was something Xia Tianqiong absolutely had to get his hands on.
Meanwhile, Leng Manjin returned to the Leng family mansion under the protection of his guards.
As they approached their destination, the guards seemed to sense something and suddenly looked up at the night sky.
Then dozens of figures descended from the sky, and upon closer inspection, they all resembled Sister Tao.
Leng Manjin suddenly felt a sense of fear and sensed that something was wrong.
"Protect the young master!"
The guards gathered around Leng Manjin, trying to block the "Sister Tao" falling from the sky with their bodies.
But there were too many "Sister Tao"s, and they were all being thrown at Leng Manjin.
For a moment, the scene was a bit chaotic.
Fortunately, these "Sister Peach" are very fragile; they can kill a large number of them with just a single trick.
It was all cleaned up in less than ten seconds.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
A guard turned to look at Leng Manjin behind him, only to see that a small twig was stuck in its chest, frantically absorbing the Netherworld power from its body.
Leng Manjin's eyes widened, filled with resentment.
It opened its mouth as if to say something, but didn't.
The next moment, the ghostly body collapsed, turning into streams of nether energy that dissipated into the air.
After Leng Manjin died, the small twig fell to the ground.
Xia Tianqiong wanted to capture the Peach Tree Demon first in order to steal this branch and use it to kill Leng Manjin, thus framing the Tree Demon Clan.
Although the loopholes are obvious and the Leng family may not believe it, as the saying goes, it is enough to arouse suspicion.
A few minutes later, a furious roar echoed throughout the floating island, startling all the strange creatures.
That was Leng Tianpeng's voice.
Then the forbidden zone formation was activated, enveloping the floating island, preventing anyone from leaving or entering.
At the same time, figures rushed out of the Leng family mansion, searching everywhere for the murderer who killed Leng Manjin.
Xia Tianqiong had already transformed back into Hua Gui. He returned to the inn where he had previously stayed, leaving Hua Gui in the room, and entered the mirror space himself.
On the bluestone plaza at the entrance, Sister Tao was bound hand and foot, her plump figure slightly deformed by the thick hemp rope.
It stared at Xia Tianqiong with resentment in its eyes.
"I never imagined that my Tree Demon Clan and the Leng Family would be tricked by a human like you!"
"What's there to be upset about?"
Xia Tianqiong smiled disdainfully, "You tried to outbid me at the auction, and then you disguised yourself as Leng Manjin to come to the restaurant where I was staying. Were you planning to do something to me?"
"Since things have come to this, there's nothing more to say. I'm warning you, I am the next chieftain of the Tree Ghost Clan. If you don't want to be enemies with the entire Tree Ghost Clan, you'd better release me immediately."
Sister Tao was all bark and no bite; she was trying to scare Xia Tianqiong.
Xia Tianqiong chuckled, summoned a chair, and sat down next to Sister Tao.
I'm going to have a good talk with it.
“Any strange creature that comes into my hands either signs a human-master contract with me or is killed and exchanged for gold. I don’t care if it’s a clan leader or not.”
"You want me to sign a human-master contract with you?"
Sister Tao's almond-shaped eyes widened, her face filled with murderous intent. "Wishful thinking! If you have the guts, kill me. The Tree Demon Clan will definitely avenge me."
At this moment, the baby tree strangely moved its roots and came closer.
"I'm also a member of the Tree Spirit Clan. Take my advice and obediently form a contract. You have no idea how much this human enjoys torturing the supernatural. I guarantee you won't be able to handle it."
The Hanged Ghost chimed in, "Once you sign the contract, we're one family of ghosts. Otherwise, you'll be in big trouble! There was a dog before, also an evil ghost, who was tortured to tears, but in the end, he obediently signed the contract."
