A loud shout put an end to the chaotic situation.

He was an old man, tall, with a neatly trimmed white beard. His face showed a stern look without any anger, and he looked very powerful.

"Are you the city lord?"

Mo Longyun leaned on his sword and raised his eyes. Although he was alone, he had a sense of vastness.

"I am the city lord."

Cheng Maoyue was full of dignity, treating Mo Longyun as an ignorant teenager who had not experienced much of the world, and said, "Young man, you have killed many people in a row, your crimes are heinous, why don't you surrender?"

He is the city lord, and his voice is awe-inspiring, as if the entire Dawei City is singing in chorus, exerting pressure on Mo Longyun.

"Do you know my origins?"

Mo Longyun said coldly.

"I don't know, but you must die in Dawei City."

Cheng Maoyue was assigned to talk about a wandering cultivator in the mountains who had no knowledge of etiquette and was bent on committing crimes. He offended a noble and gave up his money to sell his life.

With this judgment, he really regarded Mo Longyun as a person without any followers and directly set up a trap to frame him.

"clang"

Mo Longyun didn't want to say more. The Dawei City Lord's Mansion was undoubtedly being used as a gun. This kind of rural force didn't know much about the news from the upper echelons, but was so cruel that it was frightening.

His body moved violently, and the sword light was as fleeting as the setting sun. With a shake, it was about to chop off Mao Yue's head.

"Whoosh"

Cheng Maoyue was startled and quickly stepped back. He saw the afterglow of the sword light and was amazed.

"This young man is so fierce."

For a moment, he thought of a lot of things, but he realized it too late and felt a little regretful. He should have accepted the commission or had a few words with Mo Longyun before the battle.

It was difficult to get off the tiger, his expression changed, and finally he said: "Let's take him down first."

There were many corpses lying in Dawei City, and blood was splattered on the long streets. As the city lord, he had to suppress the criminals, otherwise his prestige would be ruined.

“Boom…”

An aura of a tenth-level Qi Refining emanated from Cheng Maoyue's body. In the darkness, there appeared many shackles, invisible and tangible, which inadvertently sealed and suppressed the layers of the void.

Mo Longyun felt a sense of heaviness on his body, which came from the suppression of his opponent's realm.

"boom"

Cheng Maoyue was determined to defeat Mo Longyun in one fell swoop. He unleashed his full might and his magic power also became available, surging through his meridians and gathering between his fingers and palms.

There was a sense of majesty on his face without even getting angry. He rushed forward like a hunting tiger, and a blow from his hand was undoubtedly powerful enough to shatter a mountain.

"You are two levels higher than me, and you still want to take me."

When Mo Longyun came down the mountain, he was at the seventh level of Qi Refining. Now he has advanced one level and is already a cultivator at the eighth level of Qi Refining. His realm is not as good as Cheng Maoyue's, but his spirit is unmatched by ordinary people.

His mind was full of energy, he practiced his skills, radiated the brilliance of a genius, and attacked the shackles that were everywhere.

“Crack…”

Realm suppression is an insurmountable chasm for ordinary cultivators, but some people are able to break it.

Mo Longyun broke free, like a transformed dragon or snake, becoming active and fierce.

"kill!"

He let out a killing cry, his energy and sword merged, his figure flew away at high speed, the sword's edge cut through the air, and one could feel an unparalleled sharp edge blooming, giving people a sense of solemnity and danger.

Cheng Maoyue slapped down with one hand and tried to fight against the sword. Even with the layers of magic power suppressing it, he was still cut and a bloody mark was left.

"This child must not come from a big force."

He was shocked. It was the first time he saw such a stunning young man. He actually prayed that the other party's background was as clean as water.

"clang"

Mo Longyun couldn't kill Cheng Maoyue with one sword, so he raised another. His determination and tough attitude did not seem like an act of attacking the stronger one.

Cheng Maoyue took out a golden mace and struck with all his might. The force penetrated the air and the blow was extremely heavy.

"clang"

When the two touched, sparks flew out and sharp, crisp golden sounds spread throughout the void.

"puff"

The golden mace was too powerful, so Mo Longyun's sword changed its momentum and became light. The sword light flew down like clouds, leaving no trace. He fought with Cheng Maoyue for dozens of rounds and finally cut the opponent with one sword.

Cheng Maoyue's clothes were stained with blood. He felt a little hot and a little cold. The blood was hot, but it flowed out of his body, causing internal deficiency, so he naturally felt cold.

"I will lose? Impossible!"

He had a premonition of something, but was unwilling to accept it, so he could only fight hard.

“Boom…”

Cheng Maoyue pushed all his energy and spirit to a high level. His aura continued to rise and his body became crystal clear, shining with silver light, as if it was made of polished crystal.

He took big strides forward, and the spiritual energy around him lingered like clouds, presenting a grand image. He punched forward, as if to shatter the void.

“Buzz…”

Mo Longyun also clenched his fists, and flames came out of his hands, which suddenly became brighter, as if a small sun suddenly rose up.

It was an alchemy furnace. When it was activated, it burst out with ultimate power. With a humming sound, it broke through the air and hit Cheng Maoyue directly.

"puff"

Cheng Maoyue's body, which was charging forward, shook violently, and all his might dissipated. A fist-sized concave blood hole appeared between his eyebrows. It was the alchemy furnace that shattered his spiritual platform, and he died.

"The city lord is dead?"

Dawei City suddenly became a mess. The city lord was the backbone, and now that he was gone, they could not deal with Mo Longyun and could only flee in panic under the cover of night, praying not to be liquidated.

"Um?"

Mo Longyun felt a little tired. He looked at the deserted street and wanted to turn around and leave, but he suddenly sensed something. He glanced sideways and saw a burly figure.

This is a middle-aged man with a secretive aura. Standing there, he is like a flagpole, attracting no attention at all.

"Fighting across levels, what a rare talent."

There was a hint of admiration in Lai Qiqing's words. Mo Longyun's battle record was undoubtedly the best proof of his status as a genius.

"Are you behind this?"

There was a bright light in Mo Longyun's eyes, illuminating the darkness and falling on Lai Qiqing. He wanted to see through the other person, but he always felt that there was a layer between them and he could not see through him.

"How can I be qualified to do evil to a genius from an immortal sect?"

Lai Qiqing shook his head. Mo Longyun was weak, but the Guangxiu Immortal Sect behind him was as powerful as the blazing sun. A ray of light could burn him to ashes.

No matter how conceited he is, he would not provoke the Guangxiu Immortal Sect. It’s just that some things cannot be decided according to his will.

"You guys deserve to die."

Mo Longyun said coldly.

These people knew his origins and dared to organize and frame him, defying the power of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect. They all deserve to be killed.

"So, we have to do it secretly."

Lai Qiqing deeply felt the same way. This was an extremely dangerous matter and no news could be leaked out, otherwise he would be in danger and the Guangxiu Immortal Sect would track down the source, and everything would be wiped out.

He released his might, and an aura far more powerful than Cheng Mao Yue's before, crisscrossed Dawei City, controlling every inch of the void without missing a single detail.

"A cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage!"

Mo Longyun finally understood why he couldn't spy on Lai Qiqing. He found out that he was a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage. The gap between them was too huge, so naturally he couldn't see his true background.

This time, he turned around and left. With his current means, he had no chance of winning against the Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"The city gates are sealed, the night is silent and covers everything. You have no chance of survival."

Lai Qiqing stepped on the empty sky, the light blooming in his eyes was extremely bright, illuminating the darkness and watching Mo Longyun's figure.

He waved his hand casually, and a green light shot down. Mo Longyun narrowly avoided it, and the place where he was originally standing had been pushed away.

The beams and foundations of the houses were all turned out, like an earth dragon turning over, leaving behind a pile of ruins.

"Whose method is this? It's so vicious."

Mo Longyun clearly felt the terrifying power of the Foundation Establishment cultivator. He flew away, using obstacles to try his best to avoid being chased.

This was not something he could handle at the moment. Those people were too cruel. They did not give him a chance for a fair fight, but instead wanted to kill the genius.

"Whoosh"

Lai Qiqing was at a high level and had great magical powers. He continuously shot out streams of chain smoke that crisscrossed like a spider web.

Mo Longyun was like a moth trying to get away from a spider web, but was blown by the wind and could not get through.

Finally, Lai Qiqing appeared in front of Mo Longyun, like a judge.

"You can't leave."

He said coldly.

"kill!"

There is absolutely no problem with Mo Longyun's character. He is strong and resolute. Seeing that the way forward is blocked, he gathers all the magic power in his dantian and pours it into the sword in his hand.

The sword was cold and three feet long, and had grown a bit longer. It contained the young man's indomitable will and his peak combat power at that moment.

He adjusted his breathing to be smooth, and without hesitation, he raised his sword and charged forward. His robes fluttered and his sword energy roared, like a storm, overwhelming Lai Qiqing.

Lai Qiqing looked indifferent as he looked at Mo Longyun's determination. He slapped him with one hand, showing his absolute Foundation Establishment Realm combat power.

"puff……"

Mo Longyun was badly defeated and held the sword tightly in his hand. However, no matter how determined he was, he still hit a wall and his whole body was in tatters and covered in blood.

"If I were at the Great Perfection of the Qi Refining Realm, I would still have a chance."

He did not lose heart and fled away dragging his exhausted body. The difference in realm between the two sides was too great, so he decided to settle the matter another day.

"Don't struggle."

Lai Qiqing was cold and heartless, determined to cut off Mo Longyun's life. Especially when he saw that the other party was calm and composed, his murderous intent became even stronger.

"boom"

He used his escape technique and suddenly blocked Mo Longyun's way again.

“Is this the end?”

Facing the tightly closed Dawei city gate, Mo Longyun sighed as if he had seen a dead end.

There was no fear, just a little regret that such a good opportunity to practice Taoism had to be aborted halfway.

Lai Qiqing had no intention of humiliating a young genius, so he mobilized his energy and gathered it into an extremely powerful blow, ready to kill with one strike.

"boom"

At this moment, the gate of Dawei city exploded with a loud bang, as if some terrifying creature was walking out of the darkness, and the indifferent energy from the gap poured in like a torrent.

Lai Qiqing was shocked and on guard as he saw a young man walking into the city. He stood tall and straight, and exuded a solemn and cold aura.

"You deserve to die."

The indifferent young man saw Mo Longyun, nodded slightly to him, and then his eyes fell on Lai Qiqing, full of murderous intent.

"What!"

Lai Qiqing felt as if he had fallen into a cold pond. This young man's cultivation level was very high, his spirit was perfect and flawless, and a single thought was enough to send him to an irretrievable doom.

He was already filled with fear, not knowing what horrible thing he had provoked, and wanted to retreat.

"A fellow Taoist who has a connection with the seniors, just like me."

Mo Longyun recognized the person. This was Chang An from the Law Enforcement Hall. He was as talented as him, but he started practicing Taoism earlier and was in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He was a terrifying master.

With Chang'an around, he was able to get through this crisis safely.

"Whoosh"

Chang An moved and came in front of Lai Qiqing, with a calm expression. He raised one hand and patted him naturally.

The whole process was very casual, just like a teenager out for a walk, who saw a moth flying by and wanted to playfully hit it.

"not good……"

In Lai Qiqing's eyes, this move was like the fall of a towering pillar, and his own spiritual world was stirred up by turbulent waves.

He sensed terror, and all the magical power in his body surged, like a rabbit with its fur standing on end, wanting to bite people and run away.

However, he couldn't escape. No matter how he struggled, the hand still fell in the end.

"Bang"

Lai Qiqing's magic power was directly shattered, most of his bones were broken, and he lay on the ground like a disabled person.

"Who are you……"

He realized something and fell into fear as he looked at the young and unreachable figure standing next to him.

"Guangxiu Xianzong Law Enforcement Hall, I have been ordered to come and kill people."

Chang An said calmly.

"Kill me."

This voice shattered Lai Qiqing's calmness. His face turned pale and he actually asked for death.

"Lai Qiqing is from the Lai family of Qinshun Prefecture. He was ordered by the clan leader to come and kill Mo Longyun, a rising star of the Guangxiu Immortal Sect."

Chang An pretended to be deaf and dumb but revealed Lai Qiqing's past. He came to Dawei City with a plan to assassinate Mo Longyun.

The consequences were borne by the Lord of Dawei City, who cleared himself and even the Lai family behind him completely.

However, this clever move could never be considered top secret in the eyes of Dark Blade.

"It was not an order from the clan leader, it was my personal behavior."

Lai Qiqing understood the difference between the two too well. In the former, the entire family would be wiped out, but in the latter, only he would perish.

"Under the laws of the Immortal Sect, you are not allowed to quibble."

Chang An's expression was solemn. He had to be cautious in wiping out a large clan and the future and lives of hundreds or even thousands of cultivators.

Therefore, once he made a move, he was absolutely decisive and there was no room for quibbling.

"Bang"

Lai Qiqing is dead.

Chang An killed him as easily as crushing an ant. Even though they were both cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, their combat capabilities were vastly different and could not be compared.

"Thank you for saving my life, brother."

Mo Longyun stood up, straightened his clothes, and bowed solemnly to Chang An.

He was truly in danger this time, it was a matter of urgency. If Chang An hadn't come, he would have been in trouble.

“This is all thanks to our predecessors.”

Chang An shook his head. Mo Longyun's whereabouts were all under Chen Sheng's watch. Even some unknown dangers were found out in advance.

Lai Qiqing's coming to Dawei City was a fatal mistake, because everything was already clear before the other party set off.

"It's all thanks to my predecessors, but it's also thanks to my brother."

Mo Longyun was grateful in his heart. With such a support, his journey was smooth. He also remembered Chang'an's hard work and was indeed grateful.

"I'm sorry to scare you."

Seeing this, Chang An felt that Mo Longyun was a good person, and became much more enthusiastic, saying, "Let's go, I'll take you to seek revenge."
