"Who are you?" The Lord of Ancient City glanced at the other party. There were too many sects here and he couldn't recognize them at once.

"I am a combined cultivator from the Supreme Sect. I just came down from the battlefield and was about to enter the inner city. They all know me." The middle-aged cultivator was very friendly.

The monk guarding the inner city didn't say anything, obviously he knew him.

The ancient city master nodded and said, "So you are a fellow Taoist from the Jishang Sect. Thank you very much, but no need. I want to talk to the Mahayana of the Zixiao Sect myself."

The middle-aged monk said, "Is that so? But you may have to wait for a while. Not long ago, a monk infected by a demon tried to sneak in, so now it is more strict than before yesterday."

The ancient city lord frowned, "Will the inspection take a long time?"

The middle-aged monk sighed: "It will take at least an hour. A monk who has just been infected by the demon will not be able to see the symptoms in a short period of time."

One hour was too long. The ancient city lord was a little hesitant. He was worried that the two benefactors would be in danger after an hour. Why not just ask him to help him pass on the message?

"Can't you be more flexible?" asked the ancient city lord.

The middle-aged monk said, "I'm afraid that's not possible. Now is a sensitive time and we can't make an exception. Otherwise, the battle situation may change at any time. I see that you look very sincere and don't look like someone infected by a demon, but others may not believe it."

The middle-aged monk added, "The war has been going on for so long. If any of the parties have problems, it could result in a fatal blow. If we let you in, we might become sinners for eternity. Please forgive me."

The ancient city lord sighed, "I am forcing you to do what you want, so..."

"Don't tell him." At this moment, a warning voice sounded in my mind.

The ancient city lord was stunned, and realized that it was the Sky Devouring Beast in his arms that was sending him a message, and asked in a voice transmission: "Why?"

"The Jishang Sect has a blood feud with my father and his people. If they knew that my father and his people were in danger, they would definitely watch them die without helping. Maybe they deliberately lied to you and told you that they had conveyed the message." Fugui snorted. Don't think he doesn't know.

"That can't be true. Now is an extraordinary period. Any grudges will be put second. This is the tacit agreement of all the major sects."

"You can't tell a person's heart from his face. Can you guarantee that they won't?"

Of course, the ancient city lord could not guarantee it. People's minds are complicated and changeable. "Then what should we do? If we wait for an hour, it is very likely that something has happened in the South Region."

Fugui rolled his eyes and suddenly saw a familiar figure high in the sky.

"I have an idea. Just do as I say."

"good."

"How about it, have you made up your mind?" The middle-aged monk was already a little impatient when he saw that he was slow to respond.

The ancient city lord came back to his senses and said, "Thank you, fellow Taoist, but I still won't bother you. I'll just wait here."

The middle-aged monk immediately frowned, snorted, and left.

Seeing his performance, City Lord Gu was suddenly very glad that the little beast had stopped him. This man turned hostile so quickly. It turned out that he only spoke to him because of something related to the Zixiao Sect.

Fugui’s method was actually very simple. He saw an acquaintance from the Zixiao Sect in the battle circle.

Ordinary Zixiao Sect disciples did not know him, but this person definitely knew of his existence. With his testimony, the other party would definitely believe him and take him into the city.

The ancient city lord is in the fusion stage, so he can fight the demons on behalf of the other party, killing two birds with one stone and hardly wasting any time.

The cultivator that Fugui had his eyes on was none other than Qinglan, the master of Chiyang Peak. He was also one of the few people that Fugui could recognize.

Qinglan was fighting fiercely with the demon when a blade light suddenly appeared. His enemy was unable to dodge and was covered in blood.

"who?"

"It's me." The ancient city lord came to Qinglan.

"Who are you?" Qinglan saw that he looked unfamiliar.

"Someone is looking for you." The ancient city lord took out something from his arms and threw it towards him, then went straight to face the demon opposite.

Qinglan almost wanted to chop it out with his sword, but luckily he kept his balance. The thing flew towards his arms, and the furry touch almost made him lose his concentration.

Fugui steadied himself and looked at him with disdain, "I am Fugui, ah, no, I am the son of Second Father and his family, the demon god of the Sky Devouring Beast Clan. I have something important to do now and need to find a great master from the Purple Sky Sect. Take me into the inner city quickly."

Qinglan was a little confused. He knew about the Sky-Swallowing Beast Clan, but who was his second father?

"Stupid, it's your Uncle Gao and Uncle Zhongli."

Qinglan was startled suddenly, and because of this distraction he was almost ambushed by a demon. He turned around, killed the demon, and quickly left the battle circle.

What happened in Tongshizhou more than two years ago is still vivid in our memory.

"What happened to Master Uncle and the others?" Qing Lan asked hurriedly.

"It should be fine now, but I don't know what will happen in a while. If you don't take me in to see the people, you will become the eternal sinner of Zixiao Sect."

Qinglan stared at the little beast with a serious expression, and a drop of cold sweat slid down his forehead.

"Is the eternal sinner so serious?"

Having said that, he didn't waste any time and immediately carried him into the inner city.

His face was a pass, and the monks guarding the gate didn't even bother to stop him.

Qinglan flew straight to the sky above the inner city and said, "I'll take you to see Elder Jiu. He is the third elder of our Zixiao Sect. He has a high level of cultivation and is also the one with the highest status in Dayan City. You can tell him if you have anything to say." His hurried figure quickly caught Elder Jiu's attention.

Elder Jiu was attracted by Fugui in his arms at a glance and recognized Fugui's identity at a glance.

"Hey, isn't this the Sky-Swallowing Beast? It seems that the disciples of the Heavenly Blade have a Sky-Swallowing Beast."

As soon as Qing Lan saw someone, he shouted, "Elder Jiu, Senior Uncle Gao's pet wants to see you about something important."

"Bah, you are the pet, I am his son." Fugui said angrily.

"Okay, okay, it's my son. I was wrong. Please tell Elder Jiu quickly." Qinglan apologized quickly.

Fugui didn't speak immediately, he looked around.

Elder Jiu immediately set up a ban, "Tell me, what's the important matter?"

Fugui's three sentences turned into two, "The Crofts sitting in the Imperial City is a clone. His real body is hunting down your Elder Tian in the Southern Region. Big Daddy and Second Daddy are planning to deal with Crofts himself. They want you to blow up his clone and severely injure him."

Qing Lan was stunned. "What? The one in charge of the Imperial City is Crofts's clone? No, Crofts's real body actually went to ambush Elder Tian?"

"Okay, don't be so surprised. Are you sure the information is reliable?" The wine elder put away the wine jug in his hand. This matter was very important. If it was false, it would have a great impact on the battle situation.

"Of course it's true. Second dad and the others obtained it by interrogating a great monarch-level demon." Fugui frowned.

"Interrogate a great monarch-level demon?" Qinglan looked confused. Uncle Master Gao and Uncle Master Zhongli?

"Have they broken through to the Mahayana stage?" Elder Jiu said in a serious tone.

"Yeah, Grandpa is already in the middle stage of Mahayana." Fugui glanced at Qinglan.

Qing Lan always felt despised. Well, he was not a top-level genius, so could he be blamed? The only thing to blame was the terrible talents of the two uncles.

It has only been more than two years. Before they disappeared, they were at the great perfection of the Spirit Transformation Stage. After more than two years of absence, when they returned, they were already in the Mahayana Stage.

No, they had just received news about Uncle Master Gao near the city on the other side of the Tata Mountains. It seemed that Uncle Master Gao was only in the fusion stage at that time?

The more Qinglan thought about it, the greater the blow he felt. He decided not to think about it anymore. He could not catch up anyway. What was there to think about? People should be more open-minded in order to live happily.

Fugui talked about the sacrifice again.

Elder Jiu looked solemn, "So that's how it is. These demons are indeed insidious. They deliberately started a war to attract the attention of the human race. Crofts's real body came out in person. It seems that he intends to capture Tian Jun alive."

"Elder Jiu, what benefit will it bring to them if we capture Elder Tian alive?" Qing Lan was puzzled.

"Maybe he wants to use Tian Jun to shake us. Recently, more and more demons want to sneak into Dayan City. Crofts has the ability to infect Tian Jun's will. Of course, he may have other purposes."

Elder Jiu thought about the news he had received before, and felt more and more that the demons were preparing a bigger conspiracy. The return of the demon power was blocked, and the sacrifice was also destroyed, but would the demons only prepare these two things?

"Elder Jiu, what should we do now? But according to what Uncle Gao said, Crofts' clone is still in the back of the imperial city." Qinglan said seriously.

The wine elder opened the wine flask, took a big sip, and said with a smile: "If the one sitting here is really Crofts's clone, his cultivation is at most the middle stage of the great monarch. I can still kill his clone."

As soon as he finished speaking, a sense of heroism rose to the sky.

He also removed the surrounding restrictions, and his laughter spread to the demon city opposite.

"Crofts, I will stay with you for a while. Come out."

Imperial city.

A loud voice came over and Crofts frowned.

Why did this old guy suddenly ask to fight with me? It shouldn’t be the right time now. Does he know something?

"Why don't you let me go meet him?" The only person who knew that his clone was in charge was his confidant Davidson.

"Well, you go and give it a try. Try not to confront him head-on and delay the time." Crofts didn't want to reveal the secret of his clone yet.

"Yes, sir." Davidson immediately flew high into the sky and hovered far away opposite the Wine Elder.

When Elder Jiu saw that Crofts did not come out and turned out to be his confidant, he was 90% sure that the person in charge of the city was Crofts' clone.

"There's no need for us adults to take action ourselves to deal with you!" Davidson said coldly.

Elder Jiu laughed and said, "You are no match for me. Let Crofts do it, or he will lose a great general."

"Arrogant! Then give it a try!" Davidson was furious. After all, he was a mid-stage Grand Monarch-level warrior, but the other party actually looked down on him.

Elder Jiu shook his head, "I still don't believe it."

After saying that, he threw the wine jug in his hand away.

Davidson was instantly knocked back a step. Just as he was about to fight back, a strong and sharp murderous aura suddenly rose from the opposite side.

Crofts in the imperial city stood up suddenly. How could his opponent be ready to use his full strength so soon?

Could it be that he really sensed something and knew that the one in charge was his clone?
