The old man turned his head and looked at Wang Chao, "You kid also came to Lancheng?"
Wang Chao quickly said, "Second Uncle, you've been out of touch with the clan for over a year, and we're all very worried about you."
The old man waved his hand and said, "I've actually been in seclusion this year to recuperate."
"Recuperate?" Wang Chao was shocked.
The old man's face suddenly darkened: "It's that little bitch from the Chu family. After I finish dealing with things here, I will definitely find that little bitch and peel off a layer of skin from her."
Wang Chao's anger immediately rose: "Second Uncle, Chu Xiaoyu is outside, but... she just has someone close to her. I'm afraid we can't touch her!"
"What backer? My Xuanyuan Sect is here, who wouldn't give me some respect?"
The woman leading the group of people Ruan Qiao had never seen before spoke loudly.
Xuanyuan Gate?
Ruan Qiao looked at the woman.
The man was probably in his early forties, looked very young, had the figure of a girl, and had a calm aura. He was obviously a powerful ancient warrior.
And judging from his attire, his status must be quite high.
The old man immediately laughed and said, "That's right. With the Second Elder of Xuanyuan Sect here, who would dare not show some respect? Wang Chao, go and capture Chu Xiaoyu!"
Wang Chao looked hesitant, and just as he was struggling, Chu Shiyu and his group came in.
The old man immediately saw Chu Xiaoyu following Chu Shiyu and others.
Chu Xiaoyu naturally also saw the old man. A deep fear first flashed across her eyes, and then they turned red as blood, filled with hatred.
A sinister smile slowly appeared on the old man's lips.
The woman from Xuanyuan Gate also looked over. When she saw Chu Shiyu, her eyes widened in shock and she asked, "Young Master Chu?"
"Second Elder Xuanyuan." Chu Shiyu said slowly.
"Why is Young Master Chu here?" Xuanyuan Duanjing asked.
Chu Shiyu asked, "Come to Lancheng to do business. What is the business of Second Elder Xuanyuan coming to Lancheng?"
Xuanyuan Duanjing said: "I am also here to do business. Since Chu Shaozun is here, then we will not hide it. There is a piece of debris buried under the West Street.
It's just that this fragment carries a string of code. Three years ago, in order to kill that string of code, we set up a gathering array on West Street to kill it."
"Use the safety of the people in a city to destroy a string of code?" Ruan Qiao said in surprise.
Xuanyuan Duanjing glanced at Ruan Qiao and saw that Ruan Qiao was the one who wanted to destroy the center of the formation before, and immediately showed disgust in his eyes.
She snorted coldly: "Who are you? Do you have the right to speak here?"
Ruan Qiao's face darkened.
This woman looks gentle and generous, why does she speak so harshly?
Before Ruan Qiao could get angry, Chu Shiyu spoke first: "She is nothing, but my girlfriend."
Xuanyuan Duanjing was stunned.
"Girlfriend?" She was both amused and confused.
"Master Chu has only been in Lancheng for a few days, and you've already forgotten your status? How can you call a woman of such low status your girlfriend?"
Xuanyuan Duanjing was puzzled from the bottom of his heart.
Chu Shiyu's eyes darkened and he said, "This is my Chu family's business. Second Elder Xuanyuan was disrespectful to my girlfriend and he should apologize to her."
His tone was flat, without much ups and downs, but Xuanyuan Duanjing was aware of his attitude.
Xuanyuan Duanjing looked at Ruan Qiao with scrutiny and sneered, "It was this elder who made a mistake. I was presumptuous before. Miss, please don't mind."
Ruan Qiao said calmly, "Of course, I've always been generous. If a mad dog on the roadside accidentally bites me, I won't bother to bite it back."
"You..." Xuanyuan Duanjing was furious.
This ignorant little bitch is so ignorant.
I apologized to her, but not only did she not show any gratitude, she even dared to call me a mad dog.
Chu Shiyu walked up to Ruan Qiao, looked at her lovingly, and said, "Be good, I knew my girlfriend was generous."
Ruan Qiao smiled at him, her eyes sparkling.
Xuanyuan Duanjing's eyes widened, and she gasped in anger. Suddenly, she sneered and asked, "Does the Saintess of Tianlou know that Young Master Chu is like this?"
Chu Shiyu looked displeased and asked calmly, "What is the relationship between the Holy Maiden of Tianlou and me?"
Xuanyuan Duanjing was stunned for a moment, then a sneer appeared at the corner of his lips.
She did not continue to pester him, but instead cast a malicious look on Ruan Qiao's face.
Her expression was somewhat gloating.
It seemed as if she was saying that she would definitely be dealt with by the Holy Maiden of Tianlou.
Ruan Qiao didn't care at all, her hand was still tightly gripping the dagger that was wrapped in black evil aura.
At the same time, the old man also stretched out a hand and pressed on the top of the dagger to prevent Ruan Qiao from pulling it out.
"This formation cannot be broken, and the dagger cannot be pulled out."
The old man's eyes were filled with dark clouds.
Ruan Qiao said, "If we don't break the formation, West Street will be ruined, and even the entire Lan City will suffer."
"It's okay if Lancheng is destroyed, but if that thing down there comes out, the whole world will be in turmoil."
The old man sneered.
Ruan Qiao said angrily: "I don't know how powerful the code you are talking about is, but there must be other ways to destroy it. There is no need to sacrifice the entire Lan City.
I think you have other selfish motives behind setting up this evil gathering formation."
The old man was furious when he heard this: "Nonsense!"
"You are the ones who are exaggerating." Ruan Qiao said angrily.
"What happened?" At this moment, Tang Zhengxian arrived with his men.
Ruan Qiao immediately said, "Tang Lao, you've come at the perfect time. They said there's a piece of debris buried under West Street. There's a string of code in the debris, and they've set up a gathering array on West Street.
This gathering evil formation is about to form the Eight-Direction Yin Evil Formation. Once the formation is completed, not only West Street, but the entire Lan City will be sacrificed. Are you aware of this matter?"
Tang Zhengxian looked confused: "I know there is a piece of debris under West Street, and I also know that there is something inside the debris. I have been trying to find a way to get it out over the years.
But I don't know what formation you are talking about, Miss Ruan."
Ruan Qiao looked at the old man with a sneer.
The old man's eyes flickered as he looked at Xuanyuan Duanjing and said, "Sir, this formation is the product of our hard work!"
Xuanyuan Duanjing immediately looked at Chu Shiyu and said, "Young Master Chu, you want to get involved in this matter too?"
Chu Shiyu said, “I also believe that if we want to eliminate the unknown code below, we don’t need to sacrifice a city.
If you are truly doing this for the greater good and have no selfish motives, you can sacrifice yourself.
After all, with your abilities, you can do it, right?"
"Boyfriend, you are right." Ruan Qiao agreed.
She smiled at the old man and the others and said, "You are so righteous, why not use the lives of a few of you to exchange for the lives of the people of Lancheng?"
The old man's face turned green.
The look in Xuanyuan Duanjing's eyes when he looked at Ruan Qiao seemed as if he wanted to pounce on her and tear her apart.
Ruan Qiao's mocking expression suddenly turned cold, and she shouted, "Tianlong!"
Tianlong, who had been standing behind Ruan Qiao, suddenly took action and slapped the old man with his palm.
A sharp palm wind swept over and the old man quickly dodged.
Ruan Qiao took the opportunity to exert force and pulled out the dagger that was filled with black evil energy.
