From the very beginning, the two of them showed extraordinary bearing. It would be a bit unreasonable if such people did not come from a big family or a powerful force.

Compared to Qin Yuexian's surprise, An Lan was relatively calm because she was mentally prepared.

"It would be great if you two really had a strong backer comparable to Ning Songcheng."

An Lan said calmly.

"Comparable to Ningsong City?" Gao Han chuckled.

An Lan narrowed her eyes slightly. She heard a hint of contempt in his tone. This was not the attitude that someone from an ordinary powerful background should have.

The origins of these two might be greater than she thought. She suddenly had a hunch that perhaps this woman Ning Songzhen was going to hit a wall this time.

Qin Yuexian's heart was bleeding; she could hear it. It was because she could hear it that she felt the gap between them was getting bigger and bigger.

An Lan gave her a calming look. Since they didn't know where they came from yet, it was hard to say what the situation would be, but now was a good opportunity to find out about their origins.

"From your tone, it seems that you look down on Ning Song. Could it be that you two are really from a big family?" An Lan seized the opportunity to inquire.

"That's not the case. We both come from humble backgrounds and are just ordinary monks."

How could Gao Han not know their purpose? At this point, there was nothing to hide.

An Lan was slightly stunned. This answer was different from what she expected, and she didn't believe that a person of humble origin would not take Ning Songcheng seriously.

Yes, she had seen clearly that since Ning Songzhen's threat, these two people had never shown any panic.

This cannot be simply explained by the word "calm". The confidence and calm aura that emanates from the bones must be supported by a strong backer.

"Didn't you just say that you have a backer?" Qin Yuexian was a little confused.

"Of course I have a backer. He is in the late stage of Out-of-Body. With our current strength, we cannot deal with him."

Although they had once achieved the goal of crossing a higher realm to kill the enemy, their cultivation was not that high at that time. There is still a difference between the Out-of-Body Stage and the Nascent Soul Stage. The higher the cultivation, the more difficult it is to challenge a higher level.

An Lan suddenly had an idea, "Are you disciples of a big sect?"

They have powerful backers but humble origins, so only large sects that recruit disciples all year round fit their situation.

Qin Yuexian, who heard their conversation, felt guilty and actually felt a little relieved.

"Which sect are you from? Do you want to send a message to your master now and ask them to come to Tianjiu City to pick you up?" Qin Yuexian asked immediately to hide her thoughts.

"I will send a message to the sect now." Gao Han said and took out a communication talisman.

He wanted to use the communication jade slip, but unfortunately the range of the communication jade slip was only a hundred miles.

Gao Han briefly explained how they were trapped in Tianjiu City, and then he inserted a defensive formation into the communication talisman.

The communication talisman then flew out of Tianjiu City and headed towards the Zixiao Sect.

Seeing this scene, An Lan's eyes flickered for a moment.

There is only one sect in this direction, and it is the largest sect in Lingtian Continent.

Now she is 99% sure that these two people are from Zixiao Sect.

In fact, when she knew that they were not from a big family, she already had an idea in her mind. The sect closest to Tianjiu City was the Zixiao Sect.

At the same time, when the communication talisman flew out of the City Lord's Mansion, it was seen by Fei Yang who was guarding outside.

Ning Songzhen was worried that they had run away, so after coming out, she asked him to pay attention to the movements of the City Lord's Mansion. Feiyang had to release his spiritual sense, only then did he discover the communication talisman, and immediately reported the matter to the young lady.

"Communication Talisman?" Ning Songzhen was sitting in a teahouse. Hearing Feiyang's words, she couldn't help but sneer, "It seems like you want to ask for help."

"Miss, if they really ask for reinforcements, I'm worried..." Fei Yang said.

"What are you worried about? Are you worried that we can't defeat his reinforcements?" Ning Songzhen said indifferently, as if she didn't take the matter seriously.

"If they can really move in to rescue soldiers in the out-of-body stage, their identities are most likely not simple. I am afraid that things will become very troublesome." Fei Yang said hesitantly.

"Trouble?" Ning Songzhen snorted coldly, her eyes filled with calculation, "This lady is not afraid of trouble. It would be best if Qin Yuexian could be dragged into the water, and the entire Tianjiu City Lord's Mansion could be dragged into the water."

Fei Yang's heart moved, "Could it be that the purpose of the young lady's trip is not really to snatch a man?"

"Of course it's true that I want to rob men. I will rob all the men Qin Yuexian likes. But this is just one of the reasons. You are someone I trust, so it's okay to tell you. I received news that the Lord of Tianjiu City might be injured." Ning Songzhen changed her expression from being fascinated by beauty to a vicious expression.

No wonder the young lady rushed over as soon as she received the news. At that time, he thought that the young lady really came for those two men, but he didn't expect that she came to find out the truth about the Tianjiu City Lord's Mansion.

"But isn't the Lord of Tianjiu City your uncle?" Feiyang was transferred to Ning Songzhen only three years ago and didn't know many things.

"Even brothers can become enemies." Ning Songzhen disagreed.

If she really had any affection for Qin Yuexian, she wouldn't deliberately snatch the man from her.

Feiyang had vaguely heard before that Ning Songzhen and Qin Yuexian's mother didn't get along well when they were young, but he didn't expect it to be true.

"What's the benefit of letting Tianjiu City Lord's Mansion go into the water?" Feiyang didn't quite understand.

"Of course, we will make a big deal out of it." Ning Songzhen said confidently.

"If that's the case, why should we wait outside? If they bring reinforcements, it would be more disadvantageous to us, right?"

"Do you really think I will wait outside the City Lord's Mansion forever?" Ning Songzhen suddenly curled her lips and smiled, "You will know when the time comes."

A day later, Feiyang found out that the young lady was waiting for reinforcements.

Although the Lord of Tianjiu City took away some strong men, there were still strong men left in the City Lord's Mansion. If a fight really broke out, he was the only one on their side and he would definitely not be able to withstand it, so the young lady asked more people to come.

As the sun rose, an old man in a green robe came in the morning light. The old man had a white beard and an aura that was difficult to fathom.

Feiyang was startled. This old man was most likely a cultivator in the Spirit Transformation Stage. He had been in the City Lord's Mansion of Ningsong City for so many years, but he had never seen such a person.

"Miss." The old man came in front of Ning Songzhen and spoke slightly.

"He is Old Tong, one of my father's right-hand men. He has been in the demon battlefield for decades and only came back recently. It's normal that you haven't seen him." Ning Songzhen explained lightly, as if she knew what Feiyang was thinking.

If she wants to bribe subordinates with high cultivation to work for her, she cannot act too condescending. There are some things that she should let him know, and she cannot hide them, otherwise he will feel that he is not valued.

Ning Songzhen, who was well versed in the true teachings of Lord Ningsong, had already mastered this skill.

Strength is respected, Feiyang took the initiative to report his name, "Feiyang has met Mr. Tong."

Knowing that the young lady was interested in training this subordinate, Mr. Tong nodded in courtesy before asking.

"Miss, our target is in the Tianjiu City Lord's Mansion. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Ning Songzhen snorted and laughed, "Old Tong, you are our trump card. Don't show up yet. The show is about to begin. Let me see what trump cards my uncle has."

The next moment, the monks and civilians who were still wandering on the streets of Tianjiu City heard a huge explosion coming from the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Ning Songzhen, you've gone too far. Are you openly challenging the authority of the Tianjiu City Lord's Mansion on my territory?"

Qin Yuexian came out and saw that a building had been blown up, and she was furious.

That pavilion is the guest room of the City Lord's Mansion, usually used to entertain distinguished guests. Gao Han and Zhongli Tingzhou live there. Ning Songzhen actually dared to do this!

"I don't have the patience to wait any longer. Since they don't dare to come out, I have to come in and find them." Ning Songzhen raised her chin proudly.

"You're going too far! An Lan!" Qin Yuexian roared, looking extremely angry on the surface but secretly alert in her heart. This was not like Ning Songzhen's style.

An Lan immediately flew into the air, and his aura was released instantly.

Feiyang immediately stood in front of Ning Songzhen.

"Get out of here, or don't blame me for being rude!" An Lan said with a gloomy face.

"Your cultivation is only equal to mine, so you are not qualified to challenge me." Fei Yang said coldly.

At this moment, a black sword light suddenly flew out from the collapsed building. The target was not Fei Yang, but Ning Songzhen, who looked arrogant and domineering.

"Miss, be careful!" Fei Yang thought it was him at first. When he realized something was wrong, he wanted to go over to save Ning Songzhen, but An Lan stopped him. He was furious and shouted, "Get out of here!"

"You are not qualified to yell at me." An Lan immediately returned his words to him.

With Old Tong protecting her secretly, Ning Songzhen didn't care about this little threat at all, and the guards around her rushed over immediately.

The confident guard tried to block it, but he underestimated the opponent. The sword energy pierced through his chest and blood splattered on the hem of Ning Songzhen's clothes.

"Ahhhhh!" Ning Songzhen screamed, not because she was killed by the guard's single blow.

"How dare you stain my favorite clothes!"

Ning Songzhen stared with red eyes at Zhongli Tingzhou who flew out from the collapsed ruins, with Gao Han next to him. Both of them were unharmed.

"You're dead." Zhongli Tingzhou said calmly with a blank expression.

He originally wanted to wait for someone to come before taking action, but now he doesn't want to wait any longer. This woman actually dared to attack them. The angry Zhongli Tingzhou became more and more calm.

Ning Songzhen was so angry that she laughed, "I'm dead? You dare to talk nonsense when you are about to die? I changed my mind. I won't kill you. I want you to be my furnace day and night. You can't die even if you want to."

"Ning Songzhen, you are so disgusting. You have so many male concubines in your house, aren't they enough for you?"

The thing that Qin Yuexian hated most about Ning Songzhen was that this woman captured so many men and brought them back not because she was really attracted by their beauty, but because she wanted to absorb their yang to replenish their yin and make those men her cauldrons.

Now she actually set her sights on her lover. When she thought of this, she felt extremely disgusted by Ning Songzhen.
