As soon as these words were spoken, Feng Xinglan and the others subconsciously looked down. Unfortunately, they did not have blood pupils, so they saw nothing.
Yu Qiu analyzed: "Since this Heaven and Earth Four Gates Formation is based on the fierce beast Chaos, then, could the center of the formation be underground?"
"We can't rule out this possibility." Yun Zheng nodded, her eyes narrowing slightly as she slowly suggested, "We need to find the person behind the scenes and the center of the formation. Why don't we split into two groups first?"
"Okay." The friends responded in unison.
Yun Zheng looked over at them and said, "Zhongli, Qingqing, Yuqiu, Mojing, the four of you go find the center of the formation. Yanchen, Lan, Ayin and I will investigate who is behind this."
"Search the City Lord's Mansion first. If you find anything or something happens, send a message immediately."
Zhongli Wuyuan nodded, "Okay."
The eight of them split into two groups and acted independently in the City Lord's Mansion.
Yan Chen used a small bottle to collect the poisonous blood from the city lord's body, then wrapped it in a handkerchief and put it into the storage space.
Yun Zheng glanced around with her bloodshot eyes and discovered that the City Lord's Mansion also had numerous formations and barriers that blocked vision. Her expression grew solemn. "The man who killed the City Lord shouldn't have gotten far. If he had those two arms with him, they would surely still be stained with blood."
"Let's go to the east first."
"good."
They all used runes to become invisible, and only those with the cultivation level of the Supreme Realm or above could see through their true forms at a glance.
At this moment, the people in the City Lord's Mansion were in chaos. Some were crying, some were taking advantage of the situation to loot, and some were at a loss as to what to do.
Due to the Four Gates Formation of Heaven and Earth, the people in Yongzhou City were feeling more and more uncomfortable, with their strength being deprived more and more. Some people with low cultivation even became mentally unstable and attacked people everywhere.
Yun Zheng, Yan Chen, Feng Xinglan and Mu Yin searched the east side of the City Lord's Mansion but found nothing suspicious. Just when they wanted to go to the backyard, they ran into Seng Buhui and others.
Seng Buhui, Huangfu Xiangyao, Huangfu Xiangqian and the Qu family were all investigating the center of the formation.
Next to them was a middle-aged butler. He seemed to have been crying, his eyes were red and swollen, and his voice became hoarse.
The housekeeper introduced with a sad look on his face: "My lords, this is the backyard of our mansion."
Qu Xiangying leaned on a cane and swept around with an imposing manner. The aura of the Supreme Realm instantly spread in the backyard. In an instant, the servants in the backyard shrank back in fear, and some even knelt down in fear.
"Go and look for it." Qu Xiangying said slowly.
Qu Yi responded immediately and led the Qu family to search the backyard.
Qu Xiu looked at Qu Xiangying and whispered, "Grandpa, I'll go and see if there's a formation eye."
Qu Xiangying nodded lightly.
Seng Buhui closed his eyes tightly, formed a seal with his hands, and the powerful power of the formation poured out. He raised his palm and "boom", and a barrier formation instantly fell in the backyard.
Seeing this, Mu Yin asked Yun Zheng and the others in a puzzled tone, "What does Seng Buhui want to do?"
"He set up his own formation to sense the presence of the formation's eye," Yun Zheng said, then changed the subject slightly. "However, the formation set up by the Taixu Ancient Beast isn't so easily discovered."
Even if there is a formation eye here, it may not be sensed.
Soon, a look of sadness appeared on Seng Buhui's face.
When Huangfu Xiangqian saw Seng Buhui's expression, she knew that there was no center of the formation in the backyard. She was stimulated by the power of the Four Gates of Heaven and Earth Formation and was a little impatient. She didn't want to die in this Yongzhou City.
She tried to contact people outside, but the message couldn't be sent out!
In other words, people outside don't know what's happening in Yongzhou City right now...
"Brother, I don't want to die here." Huangfu Xiangqian gritted her teeth and looked up at Huangfu Xiangyao, "Can you take me out?"
Huangfu Xiangyao was stunned for a few seconds. He stared at his sister deeply for a while, and the bottom of his eyes seemed to slowly accumulate into an iceberg, with frost spreading all around.
His fourth sister actually asked him to exchange her life for hers.
There is a secret method in the direct bloodline of the royal family. No matter where they are, as long as there is a direct descendant who is willing to sacrifice all his blood and life, the direct descendant of the same bloodline can be teleported back to the ancestral hall of the Huangfu family.
Huangfu Xiangyao's heart turned cold. He did not agree to her immediately, but said indifferently: "Let's talk about it later."
Huangfu Xiangqian noticed Huangfu Xiangyao's change of mood and immediately reached out to pull the corner of his clothes. She pretended to be guilty and said, "Brother, I'm sorry. I was just too scared. Don't be angry. Please forgive Xixi for her nonsense."
Huangfu Xiangyao's expression softened slightly, and he said "hmm" coldly.
Huangfu Xiangqian lowered her eyes to hide the dark look in them. She knew that her second brother was always cold on the outside but warm on the inside. If he was really willing to sacrifice himself to save her life, she would definitely come to pay homage to him every year.
At this moment, Qu Xiangying keenly noticed something, turned around and shouted angrily, "Who is hiding there!"
A sudden sound caused everyone present to look in the direction of the sound.
Yun Zheng and the other three were holding a bright yellow invisibility talisman in their hands, and their figures were completely revealed.
Facing the gazes of the crowd, Yun Zheng remained calm and said with a faint smile, "We are also here to find the center of the formation."
When Qu Xiangying saw them, his old face darkened and he sneered, "You again! A bunch of self-righteous young people."
Before Yun Zheng and the others could respond, Seng Buhui immediately walked over and asked anxiously, "Fellow Daoist Yun, do you have any clues?"
Yun Zheng shook her head, "Not yet."
Seng Buhui clasped his hands together, looking like a highly accomplished monk. "Although I am a formation master, my attainments are too low. If you need anything, you can ask me for help."
Qu Xiangying was so angry that his chest heaved up and down. Seng Buhui took the initiative to step forward and make friends with them, which was a slap in his face!
Yun Zheng smiled and nodded, "Okay."
The next moment, Yun Zheng seemed to see something, pretending to be surprised, and hurriedly ran forward, bypassing Seng Buhui.
“Don’t run!”
"A Zheng, wait for us!" the boy with high ponytail shouted, then quickly followed.
Feng Xinglan and Yan Chen also hurried to follow.
Just when everyone was confused, the girl in red seemed to have seen something in the open space in the backyard and kept reaching out to grab it.
She didn't look at the road when she ran, so she occasionally bumped into a few servants.
Feng Xinglan and the other two were also there.
At this moment, there was a "bang" sound, Yan Chen knocked the butler to the ground, and both of them fell to the ground.
The butler's face twisted for a moment, his eyes flashed with murderous intent and vigilance, and then he quickly disappeared.
