Chapter 1106 Suppressing Demonic Energy
Luo Li slowly walked up to the leader and lifted his chin with her fingertips: "Tell me, your real purpose."
"I, I say!" one of the men in black said quickly, "We just want to find Di Shiwei and capture her for the reward!"
"Di Shiwei!" Luo Li lifted the man's chin with the tip of her sword. "Why are you looking for her? She has connections to the Demon God Temple!"
The man trembled and said, "Yes, it is because Di Wuyou nurtured her blood, which is extremely close to the demonic energy. We want to capture her and bring her back to sacrifice to the formation."
"So that's how it is..." Luo Li suddenly understood.
The man was delighted, "I, I've already said it, can you let us go?"
"Let him go?" Luo Li said with a half-smile.
The man's eyes lit up even more. "Yes! Let us go!"
Luo Li's smile faded, "Dream on."
She lifted Xuan Yue and placed it on his heart, squinting her eyes and said, "The Demon God Temple must be executed."
The long sword pierced his heart. The man looked shocked, but finally closed his eyes unwillingly.
The other two were also shot dead by Song Wanbai.
Luo Li put away her sword, "It seems that there are indeed not many demon species. The people who are filmed are all brainwashed humans."
Di Shiwei also walked out of the house, "Lord Luo, what happened?"
Luo Li told her that the people from the Demon God Temple were searching for her.
Di Shiwei's face turned pale, "My blood..."
If this continues, the Demon God Temple will not stop searching for her, and her staying in Buli City will only bring trouble to Buli City.
"It's not a big deal," Luo Li popped out a pill, "This pill can suppress your aura. As for your blood, I need to study it further."
Di Shiwei took the pill, his fingertips trembling slightly.
She raised her head and swallowed it. A hint of bitterness rose in her throat, but it was far less than the guilt that surged in her heart. "Lord Luo, I..."
Luo Li raised her hand to interrupt her, the cold light in her eyes still lingering, "Even if the Demon God Temple sets its sights on you, we will protect you without leaving the city."
She turned and looked at the twilight outside the city. The edge of the Xuan Yue sword reflected the crimson setting sun. "You just need to stay in the city with Di Chen and stay there."
Song Wanbai walked over, wiping his longbow. "When will the three demon altars within the city be destroyed?"
Mu Ze also said: "Yes, I feel sick when I think about how they secretly set up several branch altars within the city."
"No rush," Luo Li put away her sword. "If we destroy those branch altars now, I'm afraid it will cause another big fight and attract the attention of the Demon God Temple and Yan Ye."
She said calmly, "We just need to send someone to keep an eye on them and prevent them from doing anything harmful to Bulicheng."
Luo Li tapped the tabletop lightly with her fingertips, a cold glint flashing in her eyes: "How has Yan Ye been doing recently? Has there been any new news from the disciples?"
Song Wanbai said, "More than a month ago, the Demon God Temple sent people to secretly enter the Ninth Heaven. If our people hadn't been keeping a close eye on them, they probably wouldn't have discovered it at all."
"Sure enough..." Luo Li sneered, "They can directly enter the Ninth Heaven. It seems that Yan Ye's collusion with the Demon God Temple is deeper than we imagined."
Lan Xiaoxiao frowned and said, "Yan Ye will inherit the Demon God's legacy and become the new Demon God. Then why does the Demon God Temple keep claiming to resurrect the Demon God? Don't they know that Yan Ye will be the new Demon God?"
"They might not know," Luo Li crossed her arms. "Perhaps their desire to revive the Demon God is just a pretext, perhaps to find the Demon God's legacy. But of course, it's also possible that they really didn't know Yan Ye would be the new Demon God, and they really do want to revive the past Demon God."
Lan Xiaoxiao said with a bitter face: "I'm going to give up thinking, it's so hard."
Luo Li chuckled, "Not everyone in the Demon God Temple knows about the collusion between the two parties. After all, the person from the Demon God Temple we first encountered looked down on Yan Ye."
"That's right," Mu Ze clapped his hands, "From this, it can be seen that perhaps the person colluding with Yan Ye is just someone who holds great influence in the Demon God Temple."
"That's right," Luo Li said with a smile, "but ultimately, their collusion is deepening, which is not good for us. Now that the Covenant of the Gods has been established, the Demon God Palace will probably be quiet for a while after suffering a loss this time. This is a great opportunity for us to secretly improve our strength."
"By the way," she said, thinking of the branch altar, "tell Feng Wuhen and the others about the Demon God Temple branch altar."
Lan Xiaoxiao gestured, "Don't worry. I told them the first day they arrived in Bulicheng. They said the same thing as you. They don't want to attack the Demon God Temple branch for the time being. They said it would be safer to wait until their strength can rival the Nine Heavens and the Demon God Temple before taking action."
Luo Li curled her lips, "They are all smart people."
Her fingertips gently stroked the hilt of the sword. "Since that's the case, we can't fall behind. Pass the order down. From today on, all disciples' training time will be doubled, and the supply of elixirs will be doubled."
She turned to look at Di Shiwei, her tone slightly slower, "Your physique is special, so you should follow me for the time being. I want to see what secrets lie in the blood that the Demon God Temple covets."
Emperor Shiwei's eyes were slightly red, and he bowed solemnly, "Thank you, City Lord Luo."
The night deepens.
Luo Li stood in front of the window, looking into the distance, her eyes as deep as ink.
Suddenly, a dark shadow passed over the eaves.
Luo Li's eyes flashed, and the Xuanyue Sword was unsheathed in an instant, "Who?"
Her nose twitched slightly, and the blood...
The next moment, a tall figure appeared behind her.
Luo Li swung the sword, and the moment she saw the man clearly, she put the sword away instantly.
"A Ming?"
Luo Li's sword suddenly stopped an inch away from Di Xuanming's throat, and the moonlight reflected on the Xuanyue Sword, casting a cold light.
Her pupils shrank slightly, and her voice trembled with disbelief: "Your eyes..."
Emperor Xuanming's eyes, which were originally as deep as the sea of stars, now glowed with a strange dark red, and spider-web-like black lines spread out from the corners of his eyes.
He was breathing heavily, veins bulging on his forehead, as if he was trying hard to suppress something.
"Don't come over!" He suddenly took a half step back, his knuckles clenched white, "The demonic energy... is about to get out of control..."
Luo Lichen said angrily: "How dare the Demon God Temple attack you?!"
Di Xuanming's voice was hoarse, "It was Yan Ye. He wanted to forcibly transform me into a demon, but the ancient god blood in my body has been resisting the demonic energy, so he locked me up."
Luo Li gathered white soul power at her fingertips, but was burned by the surging demonic energy the moment it touched Di Xuanming.
She gritted her teeth and retracted her hand, saying in a deep voice, "Follow me to the secret room."
A trace of struggle flashed in Di Xuanming's scarlet eyes, and he finally staggered to keep up with her.
In the secret room, Luo Li quickly set up an isolation barrier.
Di Xuanming curled up in the corner, his black robe soaked with cold sweat, and black energy could be vaguely seen flowing through the bulging blood vessels in his neck.
"A Ming, look at me," Luo Li held his face, the power of chaos igniting at her fingertips, "I will help you suppress the evil spirit."
