When Du Ziteng opened his eyes again, the first thing he felt was a burning pain in his groin. A gust of cool wind blew by, and he realized that he wasn't even wearing clothes. He was stripped down to his underwear.
"Put me down! Put me down! You piece of trash!!" Du Ziteng roared.
The guards below were pacing anxiously, but Du Ziteng seemed to be surrounded by a light array formed by some magical artifact.
Even if they worked together, they couldn't break through the magic array.
"Hiss, who did this?"
The crowd gathered at the foot of the city wall grew larger and larger, and their arrogance was simply outrageous!
Everyone knows that Du Wuwei and his son are notorious villains, but behind Du Wuwei is the Deng family! They are relatives of the emperor.
They dared not do anything, but now that they saw Du Ziteng hanging on the city wall, they secretly sighed, thinking that there must be righteous people who couldn't stand it anymore and were acting on behalf of Heaven.
"Why aren't you all getting me down here right now!"
Du Ziteng circulated his spiritual energy, but found that his Qi Sea was empty, and he could not even feel the existence of his Dantian.
What's going on?!
Du Ziteng's expression changed drastically. Why had he lost his cultivation?
"You little bitch, what did you do to me!" Du Ziteng noticed Jun Liuyue sitting at the head of the crowd. She was wearing a scarlet dress, her peach blossom eyes were full of mockery, and she was gently stroking a snow-white fox in her arms.
He said casually, "Who are you calling a 'bitch'?"
"You little bitch, of course I'm cursing you! Put me down right now, or you're dead! You won't leave Tianhe City alive today!"
Du Ziteng said through gritted teeth, "If looks could kill, Jun Liuyue would have died a million times over by now."
All eyes were on the girl, and they all gasped in surprise. They never expected that this so-called champion of justice was a young girl.
"Young lady, you'd better hurry up and leave. Once the city lord arrives, you won't be able to leave." An old woman, her body hunched over, walked over.
"Yes, let's go quickly! Once Du Wuwei arrives, we won't be able to leave."
Du Wuwei is at the early stage of the Spirit Emperor Realm, and he has both power and influence in Tianhe City.
Offending Du Wuwei meant she couldn't even be given a proper burial. It's such a waste that such a beautiful girl was killed.
The girl smiled, her captivating peach blossom eyes crinkling: "It's alright, I just like to court death."
"Miss," Sheng Yang walked over, "everything is arranged."
"Well done. Now let's wait and see what happens when the dog is cornered." The girl yawned lazily.
"How could it be you, Sheng Yang! How are you still alive!" Du Ziteng recognized Sheng Yang at a glance.
They grew up together! Du Ziteng's talent was inferior to Sheng Yang's, and he hated Sheng Yang to the core.
But because of Sheng Yang's identity, he could only feign compliance!
Six months ago, when the Sheng family's formation collapsed, he was the first to have Sheng Yang captured.
He wanted to thoroughly humiliate this number one genius of Tianhe City! He wanted the whole world to know that Sheng Yang was no match for Du Ziteng.
Unfortunately, Sheng Yang was away on training and escaped the calamity.
For the past six months, Du Ziteng has been sending people to hunt down Sheng Yang.
I never expected him to dare return to Tianhe City!
"I'm alive, of course, because I haven't sent you to your death yet." Sheng Yang gritted his teeth, the scene of his parents' corpses lying in the ground flashing through his mind as if it had happened yesterday.
"Hahaha." Du Ziteng laughed as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world. "You're seeking revenge? I never thought that the high and mighty young master of Shengyang would be a slave to someone!"
He had just clearly heard Sheng Yang call her "Miss".
Du Ziteng's green bean turtle eyes darted around, and he burst into laughter: "You wouldn't have sold your body to get this slut to help you, would you? But... she's wearing a veil, and she doesn't even dare to show her true face. She must be incredibly ugly. Shengyang, you've really suffered. Will you... ah!"
Before she could finish speaking, Jun Liuyue's silver needles moved and shot out, piercing Du Ziteng's eyeballs.
The poison on the silver needles is not fatal, but it can amplify the pain many times over.
"Ah!" Du Ziteng let out a scream like a pig being slaughtered.
"Du Ziteng, you're spewing filth!" Sheng Yang said angrily. The young lady was his benefactor!
How could he allow the young lady's reputation to be damaged?
"Ziteng!"
The moment the shout rang out, a palm strike lashed out towards Jun Liuyue.
The little fox lying in the girl's arms lifted its eyelids, its eyes filled with coldness.
Liu Yue raised her hand to block Du Wuwei's attack, but when Du Wuwei met her palm from a distance, a powerful surge of spiritual energy poured into her chest with a bang, making it impossible to defend against.
Du Wuwei was sent flying, crashing heavily into the wall with a thud! He spat out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, Jun Liuyue's eyes flashed with surprise. When did her destructive power become so fierce?
Only Wu Yan glanced at the white fox in Liu Yue's arms, but quickly looked away after just one glance.
Even as they approached Liuyue, he didn't notice his subtle actions.
"Dad! Help me! Waaaaah, it hurts so much... I feel like I'm going to die, it hurts so much—"
Upon seeing Du Wuwei, Du Ziteng cried out, "Father, save me!"
Seeing Du Ziteng's miserable state, Du Wuwei's fists clenched so tightly in his sleeves that they cracked, a testament to the power of that palm strike.
Du Wuwei was still shaken; with his strength, he was definitely no match for this woman!
"Isn't this my nephew Shengyang?"
Du Wuwei was shocked. Sheng Yang was still alive! And that half-demon Xue was also alive?
He had already calculated this a hundred times in his mind, but he didn't show it on his face. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his smile looked somewhat weary. "Nephew Shengyang, where have you been for the past month? I've been looking for you so hard! You already know about your parents... It's all my fault."
Du Wuwei looked guilty. "But you can't treat Ziteng like this! You two grew up together, you're closer than brothers!"
"How could you bear to collude with outsiders to harm him?" Du Wuwei asked, his face full of disappointment.
"Looking for me? Sending people to hunt me down?" Sheng Yang sneered. For the past six months, he and Xiao Yao had been hiding and running.
"No, it's really not true. Uncle is in a situation he can't clear even if he jumps into the Yellow River." Du Wuwei sighed deeply and said with difficulty, "I was also very saddened by the death of your parents. Originally, the position of city lord should have been yours, but you were nowhere to be found, so I temporarily took over the position. Now that you've returned, I can retire gracefully."
Du Wuwei spoke with great emotion, appearing to be thinking of Shengyang's best interests.
He said, "There are only you and your sister left in the Sheng family. I really can't bear to let you two wander outside. Your uncle has watched you grow up since you were a child and knows that you are a good child. You must have been bewitched to do such a thing today."
As he said this, Du Wuwei glanced deeply in Jun Liuyue's direction.
Oh.
