The deterrent force was suddenly lifted, but the stiff body did not relax at all, and fell down directly due to exhaustion.
However, the expected pain did not come. Shen Wuyu opened her tightly closed eyes blankly and saw Ling Wangqing's enlarged handsome face. His thick eyelashes were longer than a girl's, standing there straight, but did not conceal the slightest indifference.
Shen Wuyou realized that it was the other party who reached out to catch his falling body, so he quickly stood up and thanked him repeatedly.
The red figure in his arms slipped out of his embrace without a trace. Ling Wangqing glanced at his empty arms with his cold eyes, then he withdrew his arms without changing his expression, left the place without saying a word, and turned away.
The portal has been destroyed, and the number of ghost soldiers will no longer increase. The only things we need to deal with now are the ghost soldiers wandering around in and outside the city.
Shen Wuyou released the blood whip and killed the ghost soldiers together with Ling Wangqing, while using his demonic power to drive the surrounding plants to fight together.
Ling Wangqing was completely crushing and killing one-sidedly; Shen Wuyou was swinging the blood whip fiercely and engaging in a fierce battle.
Sometimes it was as flexible as a vine, hissing and breaking the wind, sometimes it was as hard as a sword, and its swift attack was like a red snake spitting out its tongue. She was dressed in a flamboyant and gorgeous red robe, and she moved like a dragon, sometimes as light as a swallow, and sometimes as sudden as lightning. With a wave and a dance, the ghost soldiers disappeared one after another.
In the gap, she also took the time to admire Ling Wangqing's agile and heroic posture and clean and neat techniques. She was deeply impressed. If the situation did not allow it, she really wanted to applaud and cheer for him.
The process did not last long, about half an incense stick of time, and all the ghost soldiers were wiped out.
After the last ghost soldier dissipated, Shen Wuyou and Ling Wangqing simultaneously retracted their weapons and landed steadily on the ground. She turned her head to look at him and said:
"Go find Yumo and the others."
Bai Yumo should have captured the city lord and was interrogating him by now. Although the city lord's mansion was large, all the servants and maids were trembling and hiding aside after what happened. They were filled with fear of surviving the disaster and were grateful to them, so they could just ask anyone to find out where they were, so it was not difficult to reunite.
But Shen Wuyou never expected that the servants' frightened eyes and trembling fingers were all pointing towards the city wall.
Could it be possible that the city lord would be so depressed that he would jump off the building?
That shouldn't be the case. A person who is so obsessed with immortality will never give up his life until the last moment.
Shen Wuyou and Ling Wangqing, filled with doubts, rushed to the top of the city wall together. They saw Bai Yumo and An Lanqing standing quietly on the side of the rooftop platform with their arms folded. Their eyes were staring at the city lord whose clothes were half open, revealing his underwear.
Shen Wuyou looked over and saw that the city lord looked crazy, as if he had been greatly stimulated by something. He was very close to the edge of the city wall, roaring something loudly, and his eyes were red and almost broken, as if he was confronting someone.
But looking around, there was only the city lord there.
Amidst the doubts, I could only hear him growl in a voice that sounded like madness, anger, shame, indignation, and unwillingness.
"Ye Xingmao! What gives you the right? Even if everyone in the world scolds me, blames me, spits on me, and abandons me, you still have no right! What gives you the right, what gives you the right?!"
"Ye Xingmao? Who is he?" Shen Wuyou walked over, touched Bai Yumo's arm, and asked in confusion.
The crowd that had gathered at the foot of the city wall seemed to have heard something incredible. They were all stunned and whispering to each other: "Ye Xingmao? Isn't that the name of our city lord? Who is the city lord calling Ye Xingmao?!"
"What's wrong with the city lord?" Someone looked up at the madman on the city wall in astonishment, muttering unconsciously, "Could it be that he was frightened by those ghosts and has lost his mind?!"
"Really? The ghost clan is truly hateful!"
"That is to say, we should take this opportunity to ask these immortals to exterminate the ghost clan!"
“…”
Naturally, the voices of these discussions could not escape Shen Wuyu's ears, but she did not think so. How could someone who had always done business with the ghost clan be so easily scared out of his wits?
Since the city lord called out this name, and his tone was full of anger and resentment, it was obvious that this 'Ye Xingmao' was not the same person as the city lord.
In other words, Ye Xingmao is the real city lord, and the one in front of him is an impostor who has a grudge against him!
Tsk, another substitute joke...
Shen Wuyou rolled his eyes speechlessly. Why does this world always like to use substitutes?
But seeing that he was obviously abnormal, Shen Wuyou touched Bai Yumo's arm and asked quietly, "What did you do to him?"
Bai Yumo leaned close to her, pursed her lips, and whispered, "I swear I really just fed him a truth serum, but during the interrogation, he became more and more excited, his nerves became more and more tense and uncontrollable, and then he started yelling and ran all the way here like a madman..."
Shen Wuyou glanced at her in surprise, then looked at An Lanqing beside her. Seeing that both of them had indescribable expressions on their faces, he accepted this strange fact and shut up.
However, as a qualified spectator, she was still very interested in knowing all this, so she quietly stayed aside and listened to him continue to reveal his past.
"If it weren't for you, if it weren't for your existence, how would I have come to this point?"
He stared at the air in front of him with a vicious and fierce look, and suddenly stretched out his hands as if to strangle the other person. He didn't know what illusion was going on, but although he was clearly pinching a ball of air, the strength of his hands was really strong enough to kill the other person.
