Chapter 148: Lure the snake out of its hole
The next morning, in the room upstairs in Dingyang Tower, Zhou An stretched his body. Last night, he finally signed in the entire Shangding City and obtained some high-end local specialties, all of which were the best food, antiques, treasures, 20 million taels of gold, 1 billion taels of silver, and various gems.
He had just walked into the living room when there was a knock on the door. He walked over to open the door and saw Commander Xia Yu standing outside. He was about to bow, but thinking of the guests and waiters coming and going here, he smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Brother Zhou, I have something to discuss with you."
Seeing Xia Yu's natural demeanor, he thought that the wine he drank yesterday was not in vain. He turned around and walked to the tea table and said, "Come in and talk."
After Xia Yu closed the door, he sat opposite and whispered, “Your Majesty, the Yu family has decided to secretly drug the people, arrest the independent cultivators and martial arts masters, and send them all to the backyard of the county government.
The White Bone Lady was there, so we didn't dare get close, so we couldn't get any definite evidence of the crime, but we did find a lot of witnesses.
Moreover, over the years, the Yu family secretly cultivated many sects, and they all became their thugs, two of which were immortal cultivation sects.
Many high-level evil cultivators in Dingyang County have close ties with the Yu family. Another thing is that last night, our brothers in the Jinyiwei encountered an attack by the acquired warriors of Shangding City, among whom there were several Jianghu cultivators, whose cultivation was within the third level of Xiantian, not very powerful, and the most they used was a mid-grade magic weapon.
I learned from the two captured cultivators that there will be more powerful cultivators coming. The commander-in-chief has already gone to deal with them. He asked me to inform you later. "
"So you stood outside the door for so long without knocking?" Zhou An picked up the teapot and poured a cup for Xia Yu as well.
Xia Yu was secretly grateful when he saw this. The emperor poured tea for him, which was a great favor. He quickly said, "Your Majesty is going to bed. I dare not disturb you. I can only wait outside."
Zhou An smiled and said, "Since the girl wants to be in the limelight so much, let her do it. Let's eat something first. Hey! Have all your men had breakfast?"
"The situation is urgent. Everyone is keeping an eye on the Yu family. They all have dry food with them, so there's no need to worry about food." Xia Yu said.
"Well, the Yu family cannot be kept this time. You guys continue to keep an eye on them. If there is any unusual movement, you can execute them first and report later. Madam Bai Gu, I will deal with it." Zhou An said.
"yes."
Xia Yu stood up and was about to leave when he took out a wooden box and threw it to him, saying, "There are some snacks in it. Give them to your brothers to try. Without affecting the mission, you can be nicer to yourselves. You can learn this from Lingsha."
Xia Yu took it, showed a happy expression and said: "I thank the emperor on behalf of my brothers."
Zhou An smiled and waved, watching Xia Yu leave. Now the core members of the Jinyiwei have all reached the innate realm, which is enough to deal with most problems.
Even if they are related to cultivators, the magic weapons issued by the Jinyiwei are almost all top-grade, and the ones used by the commanders are all spiritual treasures. They practice the Tiandao sect's skills, as well as various unorthodox techniques in the martial arts world, which are enough to enable them to advance and retreat freely.
Zhou An used his escape technique and disappeared into the ground.
When he appeared again, he was already on a hillside on the mountain road outside the city. He jumped onto a big tree and looked in the distance to see Zhou Lingsha and two Jinyiwei fighting against a group of monks.
Two of them were already evil figures at the fifth level of innateness, and the other five were at the first or second level of innateness. They all used low-grade magic weapons, and their skills were also common heavenly-level skills.
Zhou An sat on a tree branch, eating a teapot and pastries while watching Zhou Lingsha fight.
Although there is no shortage of battles in the Jinyiwei, there are very few opportunities to fight with cultivators above the third level of innateness. This may be Zhou Lingsha's first time to fight against an evil cultivator of this level, which is a good training opportunity.
Zhou Lingsha had 365 flying blades of thousands of demons flying around her, and no one was allowed to enter within a hundred meters.
But the two evil sects on the opposite side were also quite powerful. One of them was waving a black flag in his hand and making hand gestures. The black flag emitted black mist and controlled a group of evil spirits to attack.
Zhou Lingsha's Ten Thousand Demons Flying Blades are very effective against living creatures, but are useless against these souls. The flying knives can pass through the evil spirits without causing any damage.
She immediately formed seals with her hands and cast the Heavenly Dao Talisman. Eight yellow talismans appeared around her. She pointed the seal and the talismans flew out, turning into 365 talismans, which were attached to the Ten Thousand Demons Flying Blade, emitting yellow light.
This time the flying blades swept out like a water tornado. These evil souls were pierced by the flying blades, and they screamed, and their souls turned into soul mist and dissipated.
This made the evil Taoist so heartbroken that he gritted his teeth, bit his tongue, and sprayed blood on the black flag. He quickly chanted a spell and then shook the black flag.
I saw a black light spilling out and shining on the evil spirit, and a layer of gray light appeared to protect the evil spirit.
The flying blades hit the evil spirits, creating ripples, and they were unable to break through for a while. They could only use these flying knives to protect themselves as they flew and blocked the attacks of these evil spirits.
Another evil person controlled three flying knives that emitted green flames and surrounded Zhou Lingsha, looking for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack.
It's just that the 365 Ten Thousand Demons Flying Blades were too tightly guarded, and he never had the chance to make a move. Besides, the Ten Thousand Demons Flying Blades were top-grade spiritual treasures, while the three evil flying knives were only low-grade spiritual treasures, so it was extremely difficult to break through them.
Seeing the two sides deadlocked, Zhou An frowned and shook his head. Although this girl was wild, she was too cautious in fighting. He directly sent a voice message and said, "Girl, I'm not giving you the Tianfeng Seal and the Void Wheel. Any one of them can kill these two."
Zhou Lingsha was not surprised at all, and used the secret method of Tiandao Sect to transmit her voice: "I am just practicing. I can kill them with one move using the Void Wheel. The Tianfeng Seal can be used, but using two treasures at the same time will consume too much mana. It may consume half of my mana at once. It will be dangerous if there are still people hiding."
"Idiot, will you consume less mana if you keep wasting time like this? Let's end the battle quickly and decisively. If you strike with the Tianfeng Seal, the opponent will be scared away as long as he has no way to restrain himself." Zhou An said with a mocking tone.
"Humph, why are you so proud? It's just that you have more chances to fight than me."
Zhou Lingsha was not stupid, and she quickly understood the essence of fighting. She immediately took out the Tianfeng Seal, snorted with a wicked smile, "If I can't beat me, I'll take it out on you."
She threw the jade mountain in her hand, and it quickly grew larger and became a real emerald green mountain pressing down.
The two evildoers' faces changed drastically when they saw this girl actually had two top-grade spiritual treasures. They were so scared that they fled in a hurry, not even bothering to take back their magic weapons, and used escape techniques to fly away.
The mountain peak fell and flattened the slope. The whole mountain shook and many rocks rolled down.
How could Zhou Lingsha let the two escape? Otherwise, Zhou An would laugh her to death. She had expected the two to run away, and controlled the Ten Thousand Demon Flying Blades to surround them in advance.
As soon as the two of them took off, they were hit by the flying blades of thousands of demons.
With two screams, the two men fell to the ground, and then were hit by the flying blades of thousands of demons that had been hiding in the grass. They flashed past the ground and chopped off their heads.
The other casual cultivators were terrified. Although there were five of them against two Jinyiwei, they were obviously suppressed and it was not easy for them to escape.
As a result, because they were panicked and distracted, one of them was beheaded by the flying sword of the Jinyiwei, and the other four immediately knelt down and surrendered.
Zhou An then used his escape technique and appeared beside Zhou Lingsha with a smile on his face.
But in Zhou Lingsha's eyes, this guy was just laughing at her, which made her very unhappy.
"You have a large number of Ten Thousand Demon Flying Blades, so you can use them to your advantage. Some of them can entangle the opponent's magic weapon, and the other part can directly attack the opponent. Only with proper control can the true power of the magic weapon be exerted.
It doesn't take much effort to deal with these two. Remember this in the future, don't waste your mana." Zhou An couldn't help but say this for her future safety.
"It's so annoying, huh." Zhou Lingsha felt very embarrassed and turned around to deal with those who surrendered.
In fact, there is no need for her to come, the two Jinyiwei can handle it.
Zhou An shook his head and smiled, looking towards the forest on the other side. Those people thought they were hiding well enough, but under Zhou An's psychic eyes, nothing could escape their detection.
The man quickly used his escape technique to dive into the ground and disappeared.
