That night, Zhu Qingran happened to arrange for the Sword Sect monks from the City Lord's Mansion to arrest those who spread the rumors.
It was unexpectedly discovered that there were many clues pointing to the Ruan family.
After Zhu Qingran learned the news, he showed an expression of disbelief, great shock and deep regret in front of many Sword Sect monks.
In the end, it was decided to arrest several monks from the Ruan family who were involved in the case, and he led the team personally to show his respect for the Ruan family.
A formation had been set up in front of the Ruan family's gate. They were not fools. Seeing Zhu Qingran and the Sword Sect monks coming aggressively, how could they believe the words that someone in the family was in contact with the remnants of Xunfeng?
Not to mention that it’s gone, even if it really existed, the Ruan family wouldn’t dare to open the formation!
Delay as long as possible and contact the Sword Sect members immediately!
"Master Ruan, are you going to fight against the City Lord's Mansion and the Sword Sect?"
"Zhu Qingran, don't be so righteous. You are just framing me. I just fought with your Zhu family for a few spiritual fields! Is it necessary to be so ruthless?"
"Ridiculous! Ever since I became the mayor of Baihong Fairy City, I have never asked about the Zhu family's affairs. What does your dispute have to do with me? I have just informed you that this time I am here to take a few cultivators from the Ruan family back to see if they are innocent."
"If you continue to resist, don't blame me for mobilizing the city defense formation!"
The head of the Ruan family was very angry. This old guy was very insidious and cunning. It seemed that he would bleed heavily this time.
He spoke out from within the formation, "Lord City Lord, please tell me the conditions. What will it take for you to let my Ruan family go? You know, my Ruan family has connections in the Sword Sect!"
Zhu Qingran smiled contemptuously and did not reply. Instead, he spoke directly and rebuked in public, openly and honestly, "Master Ruan, there is no need to use such means to try to bribe us. This is an insult to the Sword Sect cultivators!"
"As long as the Ruan family monks on the list come out and explain themselves!"
The face of the head of the Ruan family darkened, and at the same time he understood that this was aimed at his Ruan family. Wasn't he afraid that the clan member would find out and take revenge on them?
The head of the Ruan family gritted his teeth and said, "I'll hand the person over to you. Can you retreat?"
"Of course!"
Now that this man is in Zhu Qingran's hands, doesn't he have the final say on what is right and wrong?
After a while, there were a few muffled "puff" sounds, and four or five black shadows flew out from the formation and landed heavily in front of Zhu Qingran.
Obviously, the head of the Ruan family also knows this truth. The dead will not speak, no matter whether it is true or false or whether it is an injustice to their Ruan family.
He was also very heartbroken, but the situation was stronger than him.
"Master Ruan, this is boring, right? Are you afraid that our Sword Sect will know something and want to kill us to silence us?"
Zhu Qingran did not expect that the Ruan family was so ruthless. They did not follow his idea of sending out a few people first and then delay time waiting for the tribe member to come to the rescue.
He knew that the soft approach wouldn't work.
"I'm afraid the Ruan family is related to the spread of rumors. Get ready, enter the Ruan Mansion, and search it thoroughly!"
"A few days ago, news came that the sword sect disciple of the Ruan family was seriously injured in the Golden Core Disciple Competition. Alas, the genius has withered. There is no hope for him to achieve the Nascent Soul stage in this lifetime!"
"I didn't expect the Ruan family to collude with the remnants of Xunfeng. Could it be related to this incident?"
It seemed that he sighed and seemed to have a guess, but in fact he was telling those Sword Sect monks in the City Lord's Mansion to go ahead boldly, because the Ruan family's backer was gone!
After saying that, Zhu Qingran began to mobilize the formation.
At this moment, flames suddenly shot up into the sky from the city.
Along with this, several loud slogans echoed over the fairy city.
"The wind rises, the sky falls, and the path of cultivation is full of freedom!"
...
"The mighty wind of Xun sweeps away the corruption, and Lingxiao's sword brings no justice!"
...
"The Sword Sect is rich, and we are poor. When the Xun wind blows, the flying sword will break. We will take away his elixir and spiritual herbs to make the Sword Sect's dream come to nothing!"
Zhu Qingran's face changed drastically. Oh no, something happened in the Immortal City!
The remnants of Xunfeng have really come! Who would have thought that the crow mouth in my family would come true!
"All monks, come with me and wipe out the remaining evildoers!"
"Call all the major families and forces to send people to support us!"
A Sword Sect cultivator asked weakly, "What should we do with the Ruan family?"
"With the enemy at hand, let them send some men to quell the rebellion, and forgive the past!"
"But they are suspected of being the remnants of Tong Xun Feng..."
"I believe them! Stop talking nonsense and do what I say!"
How could Zhu Qingran not know whether the Ruan family was collaborating with the enemy?
The moment before, his Ruan family was standing opposite him, so they were collaborating with the enemy.
But now the one standing opposite him is the real Xunfeng Immortal Sect, so he has to pull the Ruan family back and get everyone standing together again.
Something happened in Baihong Fairy City, and no one is happy about it.
He might be the one who suffered the most. He had to leave all these people in Baihong Immortal City and give an explanation after the Sword Sect came.
Zhu Qingran opened the formation and rushed forward with the monks of Lingxiao Sword Sect.
In the city, swords and magic spells were flying along with various slogans.
Because Zhu Qingran took many cultivators out of the City Lord's Mansion, there were not many Sword Sect cultivators stationed in the City Lord's Mansion. When the City Lord's Mansion was lost, the first fire that Zhu Qingran saw came from here.
Originally, he planned to use the large formation to launch a long-range attack on those who were chasing the cultivators of Lingxiao Sword Sect, but he did not expect that Xunfeng Immortal Sect was very well prepared and had already set up a large formation to resist the offensive.
There is no choice but to fight in close combat.
As the fight went on, he felt something was wrong. The opponent's cultivators were not as strong as the sword cultivators of Lingxiao Sword Sect in terms of combat power, but they cooperated with each other very well.
How come this person doesn't look like a cultivator from a newly revived sect?
Zhu Qingran's success today is not only due to various shady means, but also to his fawning attitude and his own abilities.
Otherwise, he would not be able to hold on to the position of city lord, and he would have achieved excellent results in all kinds of assessments every five years.
Seeing that there was no hope of retaking the City Lord's Mansion, Zhu Qingran immediately changed direction and led the cultivators towards the teleportation array.
By occupying the teleportation array, these people won't be able to escape and can hold on and wait for reinforcements!
After burning down the City Lord's Mansion and smashing some of the Sword Sect's assets, the remnants of Xunfeng began to run towards the teleportation array in a very orderly manner, only to find that it had been occupied by the Lingxiao Sword Sect.
I don’t know whether the fellow Taoists who were guarding the teleportation array before ran away or met with disaster.
The Xunfeng Immortal Sect didn't waste any time and rushed forward directly.
Zhu Qingran also threw away his robe, threw away his flying sword, and used the magic weapon that he had been using before, the Flying Fire Glass Beads, which looked like a few marbles.
He didn't have much talent in swordsmanship, and his flying sword was only used to save face due to his status. The Flying Fire Glazed Bead was his magic weapon that made him famous.
The sounds of fighting and killing in Baihong Fairy City resounded through the sky, and many independent cultivators were at home on guard against intrusion.
They also heard the slogans and knew who was coming.
Those who were brave enough just watched from afar, without going up to help, or waving flags or shouting, and then quietly picked up some useful things and hid.
