Chapter 1165 Changes
"Will it bring danger to Buli City?" Feng Wuhen also frowned and spoke.
Luo Li said, "There are many cities in Buli City. The people sent by the Demon God Temple this time have all been destroyed. You can stay in Buli City for a while and make other plans."
Feng Yan thought for a moment, and finally nodded in response: "Okay, then I'll trouble you not to leave the city."
Luo Li stood up and said, "Then let's set off immediately to return to the city."
"good."
Through the teleportation array, Luo Li and the others returned to Buli City in a short while.
The moment you step into the city, ripples appear in the thick spiritual barrier, as if silently telling you that the city is heavily guarded.
Luo Li led Feng Wuhen and the others through the bustling bluestone streets. There were shops lining the streets, potted spiritual plants were emitting faint light, and clanging sounds could be heard from the weapon refining workshop from time to time.
"City Lord!" A disciple clad in black armor came swiftly over. "A large number of Taixu Feng Clan disciples suddenly appeared in the city yesterday..."
Before he could finish his words, he saw the person standing next to Luo Li, "Phoenix, Master Phoenix?"
Luo Li waved her hand, "It's okay, where are Master and the others?"
The disciple reacted and quickly said, "The deputy city lord is in the city lord's mansion."
"Okay, go ahead and get busy." Luo Li nodded and led her men towards the City Lord's Mansion.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, I heard a fierce quarrel coming from the courtyard.
Luo Li frowned slightly and quickened her pace as she walked in. She saw Shi Heng confronting a white-haired old man. Broken jade slips were scattered on the table, and the fluctuations of spiritual energy had not yet completely dissipated.
She frowned slightly: "What's going on?"
Feng Yan saw the man's appearance clearly and said in a cold voice: "Second Elder? Why are you here?"
Shi Heng's face was as dark as steel, spiritual energy surging in his sleeves, and lightning still lingered on his fingertips. "Ah Li, this person said that the Taixu Feng clan has coveted Buli City and is planning to join forces with the Demon God Temple to attack Buli City. They're even asking us to voluntarily hand over half of the city, or else Buli City will be destroyed!"
The Second Elder stroked his beard and sneered, a sinister flash in his cloudy eyes: "Lord Phoenix has arrived at the perfect time. Luo Li is just a little girl who rose to prominence lately. Do you really think you can protect the Taixu Feng Clan? You've seen the power of the Demon God Temple before. Rather than being buried with her, it's better..."
"Shut up!" Crimson flames erupted from Feng Yan's body, and veins bulged beneath his jade crown. "Back then, you colluded with foreign enemies to murder my brother, and I haven't settled the score yet. Now you dare to sow discord here!"
Luo Li's fingertips twitched slightly, sending a chill down the bricks. "Second Elder, since you know the methods of the Demon God Temple, you must have had dealings with them before. When you just mentioned joining forces with the Demon God Temple, was that the Feng family's idea, or was it your personal plan?"
The Second Elder's expression suddenly changed, and he pointed at Feng Yan with a trembling, dry finger. "Slander! Master Feng, don't be deceived by this outsider! Luo Li is just a woman, and she has only been in charge of Buli City for a few months. How can she compete with the Taixu Feng Clan, which has a deep foundation? The Demon God Temple is coming with such force this time, we can only..."
"Only betrayal?" Luo Li sneered, and the cold energy around her suddenly surged, and the grass and trees in the courtyard were instantly covered with frost.
She walked forward slowly, a cold light flickering in her eyes, "The magic array at the foot of Fengqi Mountain cannot be set up without a traitor."
The Second Elder's pupils suddenly contracted, and the rune jade token hidden in his sleeve grew slightly hot. He feigned composure and snorted, "Nonsense! Fengqi Mountain is the Feng family's treasured land, how could it belong to anyone else..."
"Really?" Feng Wuhen suddenly lifted his sleeve, revealing a dark red scar on his wrist. "Three years ago, I tracked the Demon God Temple to the northern border, but was severely injured by someone using the Feng family's secret technique. The phoenix fire that was wrapped in demonic energy at that time was somewhat similar to the aura that the Second Elder has today."
Before he finished speaking, the red light around Feng Yan suddenly increased, and he transformed into a phoenix shadow that was a hundred feet long, with its sharp claws going straight for the Second Elder's face.
The second elder let out a strange cry, and purple-black flames rose from his body, which was actually a sign of demonization.
The jade ruyi in his hand instantly transformed into a long black banner. Countless distorted human faces appeared on the banner, and the shrill screams made everyone's eardrums hurt.
"Since you've discovered me, then all of you shall die! The demon god is coming, and the entire continent will be..."
"Break!" Luo Li flicked her jade finger, and an ice crystal rune broke through the air, accurately shattering a corner of the long banner.
The moment the long banner broke, demonic energy as thick as ink gushed out and condensed into a hideous demonic shadow in mid-air.
The Second Elder took the opportunity to retreat quickly, his haggard face twisted into a strange arc: "You think you can stop me like this?"
Luo Li said coldly: "He wants to send a message to the Demon God Temple!"
The phoenix wings around Feng Yan spread out, and the flames that covered the sky and the sun burned the evil spirit with a sizzling sound: "Don't even think about it! The Feng family's foundation cannot be tarnished by a traitor like you!"
Before he finished speaking, a giant claw tore through the void and headed straight for the second elder's vital point.
The second elder sneered and threw the broken banner in his hand into the sky.
The long black banner exploded in the air, turning into countless dark purple runes that spread towards the sky like a spider web.
Wherever the rune passed, ripples appeared in the space, faintly revealing the eerie and strange aura of the Demon God Temple.
Just as everyone was preparing to intercept, a melodious but demonic flute sound suddenly came from outside the City Lord's Mansion.
Wherever the flute sounded, the originally bustling streets suddenly became quiet, followed by screams one after another.
Luo Li narrowed her eyes: "It seems there is a traitor."
Feng Yan gritted his teeth and asked, "What's going on outside?"
Luo Li shook her head. "With Xiaoxiao and the others here, nothing will happen. Let's kill this man first."
"Okay!" Feng Yan nodded, "Leave this traitor of the Taixu Feng clan to me!"
The phoenix shadow around Feng Yan became more and more solid, the blazing flames caused the temperature of the surroundings to rise sharply, and the air was filled with a burning smell.
He flapped his wings, and a rain of fire poured down towards the Second Elder with the power to burn everything.
The second elder smiled strangely and waved the broken long banner. The purple-black flames collided with the rain of fire, and a deafening roar broke out.
In the thick smoke, his figure flashed and he appeared strangely behind Feng Wuhen. The tip of the long banner, condensed with demonic energy, pierced his back.
Feng Wuhen was quick-eyed and quick-handed. A red chain flew out from his sleeve, wrapped around the long banner like a spirit snake, and pulled it hard.
As the second elder staggered, Luo Li turned around and thrust out the ice crystal spear condensed in his palm. The cold light at the spear tip collided with the demonic energy of the long banner, bursting out with dazzling light.
At this time, the sound of the flute outside the City Lord's Mansion became more and more urgent, and echoed in the air along with a sinister laughter.
Feng Yan's pupils suddenly shrank, and his wings turned into streams of light as he swooped over. Wherever his tail feathers swept past, an eternal fire of karma ignited.
Upon seeing this, the Second Elder rolled up the long banner and used his magic energy to form a shield to resist Feng Yan's attack. At the same time, he made a hand gesture with his other hand, and dark red spells suddenly appeared on the floor tiles around the City Lord's Mansion, turning them into a cage to trap everyone.
"Stupid! This is a magic formation bestowed by the Demon God!" The second elder laughed arrogantly, waving a long banner. Countless bone arms emerged from the ground and tightly wrapped around the ankles of Feng Wuhen and Luo Li.
Flames surged around Feng Yan, and he transformed into a humanoid figure holding a flaming spear. He shot through the Second Elder's left shoulder, but black blood mist gushed out of the wound, and it healed in the blink of an eye.
"His power..." Luo Li's fingertips condensed into blades, severing all the bones that were wrapped around her. "I must destroy the magic core in his body!"
She clasped her hands together and said, "Chaos Shattered Void!"
A brilliant beam of light shot up into the sky, carrying an earth-shattering pressure and crashing into the Second Elder.
The magic array trembled violently under this force, and the dark red spell emitted a dazzling blood light, turning into thousands of blood pythons that pounced towards Luo Li.
The Phoenix Flame flapped its wings and cried loudly, and the Phoenix's true fire condensed into a huge fire shield, burning the blood python to ashes.
"Impossible!" the Second Elder exclaimed angrily, "How could you possibly have such power?"
Luo Li sneered, her hair dancing wildly as the force lifted her: "With such short-sightedness, it's no wonder she chose to join the Demon God Temple."
The second elder's pupils suddenly shrank, and fear appeared on his demonic face for the first time.
He waved his banner frantically, trying to recall the magic sound support outside the city, but he saw that a huge formation had already appeared above the city, and all his voice transmissions did not leave the city at all.
"The Feng family's secret method: Burning the sky!" Feng Yan took the opportunity to sacrifice his own lifeblood. The hundred-foot-long phoenix shadow swallowed up the karmic fire in the sky and turned into a giant red-gold claw, grabbing the second elder's chest fiercely.
At this critical moment, a huge black vortex suddenly appeared in the sky above the City Lord's Mansion, and thick demonic energy surged out like a tide.
A shadow slowly walked out of the vortex, with chains wrapped around its body and a strange hexagram magic pattern embedded on its forehead.
"Hmph, you ants who don't know your own limitations," the shadow said, his voice sounding like it came from the Netherworld. "Hurry and take their lives! Follow me back to the Demon God Temple and report!"
Feng Wuhen looked at the shadow in the air and said angrily, "Grand Elder?!"
The Second Elder seemed to be injected with new strength, the demonic energy around him surged, and his wounds healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Lord Feng, you wouldn't have thought that the Great Elder you trust so much has already been a member of the Demon God Temple, even earlier than me!"
He rushed towards Luo Li with a sinister grin, and the long banner in his hand turned into thousands of poisonous dragons. Wherever it passed, the ground cracked.
Luo Li's eyes shone, and the light around her became brighter and brighter: "You are not qualified to run wild in Buli City!"
As she raised her hand, the power of chaos transformed into meteors all over the sky, colliding with the poisonous dragon.
At the same time, Feng Yan and Feng Wuhen also launched their strongest offensive. The three of them formed a triangle, trapping the second elder and the mysterious phantom.
At this time, the screams outside the City Lord's Mansion became more and more shrill, and the sound of the flute was mixed with the teeth-grinding sound of bones breaking.
Luo Li's heart tightened, knowing that Xiaoxiao and the others would inevitably be in a tough battle.
She gritted her teeth, a look of determination flashing in her eyes: "We must end this quickly!"
The mysterious shadow seemed to sense Luo Li's intention and sneered, "Want to escape? Too late!"
As he raised his hand, countless chains flew out from the black vortex and wrapped around everyone like living things.
At the critical moment, Luo Li suddenly closed her eyes, the aura around her surged, and a pressure that was superior to the demonic energy spread out.
She slowly opened her eyes, and the glass-colored light in them turned into substance—
"Chaos Annihilation!"
A brilliant light shot up into the sky, and wherever it passed, the demonic energy, chains, and magic formations all dissipated.
