When Xiang Sheng heard the voice, his eyes moved slightly, but there was no surprise on his face.
Her guess was correct. The person to whom she was trading the Huacheng Blood Pill was indeed the city lord Ji Teng.
The scene at the flower viewing banquet just now was just a self-directed act by him to deceive Ling Ying.
It seems this person doesn't want to break off relations with the Red and Green Army. As for the others...
The old man in brown robe carefully placed the man in green in front of Ji Teng.
"Master, the person has been brought here."
Ji Teng slowly raised his eyelids and stared at the man in green with empty eyes for a moment. It seemed as if he remembered something, and his expression gradually became gloomy.
Then at some point, he suddenly reached out and grabbed the storage ring from the green-clothed man's hand and forcibly erased the mark.
The man in green groaned from the backlash. When he woke up and saw Ji Teng's face, he was immediately horrified, "You..."
Before he could finish his words, Ji Teng reached out and grabbed the top of his head. The black energy in his palm immediately penetrated his skull, turning his sea of consciousness upside down.
“Ahhhhhh!!”
The man in green immediately let out a horrific scream, blood gushing from all seven orifices, and struggled frantically.
However, with his cultivation level at the early stage of Earthly Immortal, there was no way he could escape Ji Teng's confinement.
Soon, his sea of consciousness was completely shattered, his struggling hands fell down powerlessly, his eyes rolled up, and he made a "ho ho" sound from his mouth, looking like an idiot.
Ji Teng threw the man in blue away. His gloomy expression did not improve, but instead became even more filled with uncontrollable anger.
"not yet?"
The old man in brown robe nervously handed over the storage ring, "This old servant has carefully checked it and found no information about Taoist Yuan."
"waste!"
Ji Teng flew into a rage and slapped the brown-robed old man away. "I've been patient for three months, but in the end, something unexpected happened! Is this what you call acting with caution?"
"Master, calm down!"
The old man in brown robe vomited blood and crawled to Ji Teng's feet and knelt down:
"This old slave is doing this for his master!
If you are discovered by the master now, you will only receive a heavier punishment than last time, so how can you not be careful? "
When talking about the past, Ji Teng's face became even more furious, and his eyes revealed deep hatred:
"What's my fault? It's those old stubborn people who don't know how to adapt!
If they hadn't interfered, I would have already secured the top spot among the younger generation of the Ji family. How could I have fallen into this state now?
Those old immortals, once I comprehend the great way of blood and return to the Golden Immortal realm, I will kill them all sooner or later! Hahahaha..."
The crazy laughter echoed in the underground cave.
The old man in brown robe knelt on the ground, shivering and not daring to say a word.
After a long time, the madness on Ji Teng's face finally disappeared and he returned to calm.
"Send him back and feed the ghost grass well. Don't let him die too early."
The old man in brown robe dared to stand up and tremblingly picked up the stupid man in green.
Before leaving, he hesitated for a moment, hunched over, and asked carefully:
"Among the people we captured at the gathering, there are only two left besides Ling Yun from the Red and Green Army. If those two don't..."
Ji Teng sneered at this, "If those two don't gain anything, you will be buried with them!"
The old man in brown robe trembled violently, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead:
"Master, you are blessed with great fortune. You will definitely find the clues!"
Ji Teng looked impatient, "What nonsense! Go and catch them!"
Seeing this, the old man in brown robe sweated even faster.
Ever since the master was punished, his temper has been getting worse day by day. Maybe this time he is so angry that he really wants to take his life to vent his anger!
We need to think of a way...
The old man in brown robe racked his brains, and suddenly his eyes lit up, a smile appeared on his face, and he asked meaningfully:
"Master, do you want to search for the Earth Immortal Zhang Yun who sold the chessboard first, or that... Fairy Shen?"
"What's the difference?"
Ji Teng didn't understand the hidden meaning and looked even more impatient: "Let's go with Zhang Yun."
After he finished speaking, he looked up and met the obscene face of the old man in brown robe. Then he realized what the other party meant and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Speaking of which, he has been...
He couldn't help but licking his lips, "Well, let's change to her."
When the old man in brown robe heard this, he knew that his life was saved, and he immediately became happy and responded happily:
"I'll go right away!"
When Xiang Sheng heard this, his eyes turned cold, but he didn't reveal anything. He retreated quietly before the old man came out, returned to the pit and closed his eyes.
Not long after, the old man in brown robe arrived, and with a gesture of his hands, he opened the formation and secretly cooperated with Xiang Sheng to control the restriction, revealing the same portal as when the old man in brown robe caught the man in green before.
The old man in brown robe was unaware of anything. He came in, reached out and grabbed Xiang Sheng, holding him under his armpit. He quickly walked into the cave and gently placed the person in front of Ji Teng.
Ji Teng looked at Xiang Sheng's beautiful sleeping face, and suddenly a fire of evil rose in his heart, burning his mouth and making his tongue dry.
Even so, he did not forget his main business. He stretched out his five fingers to grab the air, and the storage ring on Xiang Chan's little finger slipped out of his hand and fell into his palm.
The mark of a second-tribulation immortal was too fragile, and even an earthly immortal could easily erase it. He directly threw the ring to the old man in brown robe, then licked his lips. Just as he was about to take action, he suddenly heard the old man in brown robe scream.
"Owner!"
His interest was interrupted, and the slight joy that had just risen in Ji Teng's heart was immediately replaced by anger, "Stupid slave! You are looking for..."
Before he could utter the word "die", he looked up and saw the opened jade box in the hands of the brown-robed old man. His eyes immediately widened.
“This…this is…”
He dodged and snatched the jade box, looking at the twelve neatly arranged pills in the box in disbelief, his whole body trembling.
"Blood Pill?!"
Taoist Yuan had been missing for a long time and he had actually already determined that the man had embezzled the elixir and escaped, and he had long lost hope in his heart.
Huacheng is too powerful for him to afford to offend. Without the support of the Ji family, going to collect the debt would be tantamount to seeking death.
However, he felt so aggrieved in his heart that he wanted to go crazy and kill all the people on Zhiyao Star!
Just at this time, Ling Ying came to him, so he took advantage of the situation and held a flower viewing banquet as planned to investigate the whereabouts of Taoist Yuan.
However, he knew in his heart that there was no need to arrest so many people to investigate the clues of Yuan Dao Ren.
His actions were merely a vent of anger. The last bit of rationality he had was reserved for the scene he played with Ling Ying.
He couldn't afford to offend the Red and Green Army.
But as luck would have it, the Blood Pill appeared unexpectedly!
"How could it be on her?"
After all, Ji Teng was once a genuine Golden Immortal. He was calm and composed. He quickly calmed down after his excitement. He stared at Xiang Sheng, who was still lying on the ground, motionless, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
There was no way he would be mistaken about this woman's aura; she was truly only a second-level immortal.
He never took the little immortal seriously.
If he hadn't had other romantic thoughts this time, he would never have investigated her, and he might even have let her go for Ling Ying's sake.
