Chapter 139 Attacking Lingjiu Sect? Cleansing Black Mountain Pass!
At most, it would shift halfway north, so how could it involve the city of Kuye near the swamp?
Thinking of this, Wang Yu's eyes gradually turned cold.
With a wisp of pressure belonging to the Foundation Establishment stage, he grabbed the collar of the person who provided the information.
"You dare to lie to me?"
"No, no, no... Senior, it's a misunderstanding! Everything I said is true. That's what the city lord's mansion notified us. The city gates were just closed at noon."
"Although it is a forced recruitment under the name of the Sword Sect, there is also a considerable reward. Senior's cultivation is unfathomable, and you will definitely make a fortune."
Wang Yu took a deep breath, sensing that this person didn't seem to be lying.
"roll."
He casually threw the person off the second floor, and the young Hyacinth scrambled away, not daring to look back.
Those around who witnessed this scene immediately averted their gazes and did not look any longer. However, Wang Yu felt a surge of anxiety, and his fingers unconsciously tapped the table.
Something's wrong! Something's definitely not right!
Unless he was set up, such a coincidence is impossible.
Let's try a different approach.
According to reports, the purpose of forcibly conscripting independent cultivators near Black Mountain Pass was to purge the Lingjiu Sect, which is unreasonable.
Lingjiu Sect is a sect that resides along a spiritual vein. Its headquarters are located there, so as long as people are sent to keep watch, there will be opportunities to cleanse it at any time. No one can escape.
This is what is commonly known as: "You can run away from the monk, but you can't run away from the temple!"
The city of Kuye is too far from Lingjiu Gate; it shouldn't be their turn to be recruited.
Assuming the target is not Lingjiu Sect, the principle of proximity will be followed.
That leaves only... Black Mountain Pass!
Wang Yu's pupils suddenly contracted. That's right, even if Chang Xi went to Black Mountain Pass to capture people, she couldn't possibly capture everyone.
The border garrison is composed of a diverse group of people from all walks of life, and they are more or less connected with the three major Nascent Soul factions: Biyun Sect, Wangyue Palace, and Leihuo Temple.
The situation is tangled and complicated. Even the Sword Sect doesn't have the right to arrest everyone. If they're thinking of acting first and reporting later, then it's reasonable.
Think again, why did he come to the City of Withered Leaves?
It was because of Changxi's intimidation!
This woman is inhuman; she brandished her sword to scare him. But if she really was plotting against him, how would she know he would choose Kuye City? What if he just hid in any city or went back to Shihu City to visit his family?
Also, what does she need to do on her own, and what is her purpose?
That doesn't make sense.
After much thought, there's only one possibility.
"The lie... has been exposed."
Wang Yu squinted, continuously pouring wine into his glass, his thoughts flowing like a spring.
If the Tianxu Sword Sect's intelligence network is even more powerful than he imagined, then his entire life story in the Shihu Wang family has likely been investigated in great detail.
This includes his conflict with Wang Wu and the cause of his father's death.
Therefore, when Changxi contacted him, his reasons were untenable, because Wang Wu had already disappeared, making him highly suspicious.
Starting from this point, all subsequent fabricated stories are illogical; only the spirit slave is true!
Then we naturally know that he didn't come from the Black Mountain Demon Land, and what kind of safe passage is nearby?
Black Mountain Pass!
They'll let you in if you pay them.
With her identity exposed, Changxi's need for him became clear: to go to Heishan Pass to identify people, provide concrete evidence, and ensure that she wouldn't encounter procedural troubles after acting first and reporting later.
"What a terrifying woman. I actually lost in a battle of wits."
Although he never considered himself to be the kind of person who was exceptionally intelligent, he was definitely not stupid either. He was adept at interpersonal relationships, concealing his sharpness, and so on.
Wang Yu sullenly drank a glass of wine and let out a long sigh.
It was no coincidence that he was forced to the city of Kuye.
Given that his identity had been exposed, he couldn't possibly venture deep into the Taihu Spiritual Domain, and he had already been to Shihu City, considering the cultivation world's restrictions on maps.
He knew little about the area and could only choose a place nearby to hide.
By sealing off several cities near the demon lands and swamps, centered on Black Mountain Pass, we can capture him.
This is the most reasonable guess; he doesn't believe he's really that unlucky.
His identity as a member of the Demonic Sect was exposed, and the other party was using him, which shows that he is not a law-abiding person. This trip has broadened his horizons.
The waters of Taihu Lake are too deep; he wants to return to Chiyuan!
After putting down the wine glass and paying the bill.
Wang Yu put on a bamboo hat and walked towards the city wall; he was not going to obediently comply.
If he is forcibly taken to Black Mountain Pass, he can forget about returning to the Crimson Kite Demon Realm. The best outcome would be to be drained of all his intelligence and then imprisoned until he dies.
Perhaps the other party has considered things very thoroughly and calculated very precisely, but they have absolutely no understanding of Wang's temperament.
If you dare to scheme against me, I'll slap you until your face is swollen.
…………
…………
According to the classification of the cultivation world, the City of Withered Leaves is a typical trading city. Due to its proximity to the Swamp of Withered Leaves, it has a very large flow of people.
The number of mortals living here is relatively small; most are cultivators who travel high and low. The abundant resources of demonic beasts, rare and precious materials, and other spiritual items produced in the Withered Leaf Swamp have contributed to the prosperity of this city.
It then radiated to the surrounding areas, becoming a center for trade and freight.
The city covers a vast area, but the formation only covers the area of the city lord's mansion, with watchtowers hundreds of meters high evenly distributed throughout.
Wang Yu's goal is simple.
In such a large city, there are bound to be some corners that have fallen into disrepair over the years, and there might even be things like dog holes.
If you really have no other options, bribing the city guards with spirit stones is also an option.
Or perhaps, there is more than one cultivator in the city who is unwilling to accept the forced conscription; there may even be one who is related to the power structure of Kuye City.
It's not unreasonable for him to pay for a ride, is it?
As the saying goes, "where there's a policy, there's a countermeasure." Changxi's attempt to remotely control his trajectory and direction is too arrogant and underestimates humanity and the ability of the weak to find a way to survive.
Seeing that no one was around, Wang Yu gently touched the moss-covered city wall. With the penetration of spiritual energy, he was quickly bounced back.
But a smile appeared on his face.
"As expected, the city lord's mansion is a third-order formation. If there is a formation that covers the entire city, it is at most a second-order formation. It is impossible to extravagantly include all areas within the scope of a third-order formation, nor do they have the financial resources."
After finding the flaw, Wang Yu did not rush to make a move. Taking advantage of the invisibility technique, he walked openly along the city wall, trying to find the weak point.
This effort finally paid off at dusk.
"This is it."
Taking a few steps back, I looked at the city wall, which was covered with cracks and debris. I wondered if it had been hit by a beast tide, as it was clearly not well repaired.
Taking a deep breath, the Divine Corpse Arm began to gather power.
The Yinming Demon Dragon tattoo on his back came to life and wrapped around his left arm. After body refinement and foundation building, the drawback that the two powers could not be combined had been resolved.
He can unleash Wang Yu's strongest power without restraint!
This isn't over yet.
The dark gray Xuan Yin Hand, resembling a giant boxing glove, actually merged into his left arm from its dependent state, raising a fist several times larger than a person.
Wang Yu suddenly slammed his fist hard against the city wall.
"Boom—"
The extra chapters will be released after 12 noon.
