Feng Yuexian's attack caused Huang Chen to spit out blood and lose two teeth. He shouted arrogantly:
"Do you know that I am the commander of the imperial guards? How dare you attack me!"
"Why wouldn't I dare?" Feng Yuexian sneered, "I'm still an inner disciple of the Xuanxian Sect!"
Huang Chen said angrily, "Okay, very good! If you can get out of this imperial capital, I, Huang Chen, will read my name backwards!"
Soon, several teams of people came galloping from a distance.
Mu Lingjiu turned around and asked, "Do you have any speed-up talismans?"
"Yes." Everyone was out on a mission, and acceleration was a necessary item, so they naturally brought it with them.
Hearing everyone's affirmative response, Mu Lingjiu also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Put on the acceleration talismans, everyone, and rush out at full speed!"
Almost at the same time, everyone put on the acceleration talisman and ran towards the outside of the imperial capital at an extremely fast speed.
However, there was more than one team chasing them, and they came from all directions. There were also guards at the city gate, so it was difficult to break out.
"What should we do now?" The Xuanxian Sect disciples who followed were also a little scared.
Li Chengfeng had the highest cultivation level among them, but Li Chengfeng was now injured, so they had no choice but to look to Feng Yuexian and Mu Lingjiu.
"Two senior sisters, should we stop and explain things to them?"
"Yes, we are disciples of the Xuanxian Sect and have no grudges against the Imperial Capital. They won't really do anything to us, right?"
…
Feng Yuexian was also unsure and turned to look at Mu Lingjiu.
"Junior Sister, what do you think..."
Mu Lingjiu frowned slightly. "The Imperial Capital is under lockdown. It's certainly not easy for us to get out, but if we stay, I'm afraid it won't be easy either. You can decide whether to stay or leave."
A group of people were rushing towards them, and the disciples of Xuanxian Sect were quite panicked.
Mu Lingjiu looked at the people rushing up. They were also wearing the uniforms of the imperial guards.
The Imperial Capital has eight Imperial Guard Commanders, each responsible for a different area. The leader should be the one currently guarding the city gates.
"Who dares to injure the commander of our imperial army? You're courting death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a heavy hammer fell from the sky, triggering a thunder disaster between heaven and earth.
"This person has a mutated bone structure with thunder attribute, so powerful!" Feng Yuexian couldn't help but exclaimed.
The other party's cultivation is higher than theirs, and their spiritual roots are so excellent, so catching them is not a problem.
"Little purple-gold dragon!" Mu Lingjiu gently touched the little purple-gold dragon's head.
It leaped up into the air, and its soaring dragon body resisted the huge thunder falling from the sky.
The Xuanxian Sect disciples who were originally panicked immediately calmed down and took out their own magic weapons.
Now they have only one way, which is to follow Mu Lingjiu and rush out, otherwise they will all die here.
Mu Lingjiu threw Huang Chen out to block the sledgehammer.
Clang——
The heavy hammer hit Huang Chen with a clanging sound as if it hit steel. At the same time, Huang Chen vomited blood again and his bones were broken.
"Ah!" He screamed in shock, not caring about anything else at this moment, and begged for mercy repeatedly.
"Have mercy on me, Brother Li, don't do it!"
The man holding the sledgehammer hesitated. If he attacked again, Mu Lingjiu and the others would take Huang Chen as a hostage. After all, they were colleagues, working together, so he couldn't really kill Huang Chen.
"What's going on?" Li Yu asked coldly.
"These people are from the Xuanxian Sect." Huang Chen said weakly, "They want to leave here."
"Xuanxian Sect?" Li Yu was a little surprised when he heard the name Xuanxian Sect. After all, Xuanxian Sect was the highest sect, and he had always dreamed of going there.
Although he did not join the Xuanxian Sect, the three words "Xuanxian Sect" held a considerable place in his heart.
He suppressed his murderous intent and pressed on, "Why are you here? Why did you insist on leaving the city during this lockdown?"
"What control?" Feng Yuexian was puzzled. "We just teleported here, and you sent people to surround us and won't let us leave. Are you asking us to sit and wait for death?"
Upon hearing this, Li Yu immediately said, "There may be a misunderstanding. Commander Huang didn't explain it clearly to you. Our Imperial Capital has been under control recently. Not only you, but everyone else is prohibited from entering or leaving the Imperial Capital. Once the control is over, everyone will be able to enter and leave freely."
"What control? We are still busy with our mission." Li Chengfeng stood up, supporting his injured body with one hand and pointing at Li Yu with the other.
Li Yu explained gently, "Some traitors have appeared in the imperial capital. Once we've cleared them out, we'll naturally let everyone go. Right now, we have no choice but to inconvenience everyone. However, since you're disciples of the Xuanxian Sect, we won't make things difficult for you. We'll arrange accommodations for you, and you can leave in a few days."
"What if we don't?!" Li Chengfeng is not a soft persimmon. As the direct disciple of the Fourth Elder, he is naturally a little arrogant.
"If you don't agree, I can only follow the Queen's order and let you stay here." After Li Yu finished speaking, the spiritual energy around him surged again.
The disciples of Xuanxian Sect also began to whisper to each other.
"What should I do? Should I stay?"
"Of course I'm staying. It's better to stay for a few days than to fight my life here, right?"
"I also think that if we stay, it will only delay us for a few days. At most, the mission will fail, which is definitely better than dying."
"Then why don't we stay here?"
…
Most of the disciples wanted to settle the matter peacefully. After all, continuing to fight might not necessarily bring good results for them.
As Li Chengfeng listened to his disciples' words, a look of dejection appeared on his arrogant face.
He looked at Mu Lingjiu, "Junior Sister Mu thinks so too?"
Mu Lingjiu glanced at Li Yu and others opposite him, as well as the large number of guards who were about to surround him.
She could charge forward alone, but she couldn't treat the lives of her fellow sect members as a joke.
The best option for now is to stay and observe to save their lives to the greatest extent possible.
"Agree to it." Mu Lingjiu said.
Feng Yuexian held Mu Lingjiu's hand and whispered, "But, I think Huang Chen just wants to keep you..."
"I have a teleportation talisman on me. If you want to leave, you can't stop me. Now it's more important to save the lives of other brothers and sisters." Mu Lingjiu replied.
Feng Yuexian then frowned and nodded reluctantly, "Okay, we'll stay."
When Huang Chen heard this, he was delighted. If Mu Lingjiu stayed, the plan could proceed smoothly.
"Well, let me go quickly."
"Why are you panicking?" Feng Yuexian slapped Huang Chen on the head. "You can't leave. We're going to use you as a hostage."
Feng Yuexian said loudly to Li Yu, "This man has always wanted to do something cruel to us. I can't let him go. Since you asked us to stay for a few days, I will detain him for a few days. When we leave, I will naturally release him. How do you think?"
"Huang Chen is the commander of my empire. How can I let you control him?" Li Yu's expression also turned cold.
"Without the hostages, how can I believe you'll really let us go in a few days?" Feng Yuexian snorted coldly, "Don't treat us like fools!"
Huang Chen was now beaten to a pulp, and just wanted to survive. He quickly said, "Brother Li, agree to them first."
Agree to it first, and after they are settled, let Li Yu find a chance to rescue him.
