The iron cage is leisurely and comfortable, fighting and Junze
"He... seems to have taken a leave of absence..." Shangguan Yi said petrified.
Linghu Luoxi leaned against the iron cage with his arms stretched out. The distance between the two iron bars of the cage was too narrow, so he could only stretch out his hands and feet at most. Seeing that there was really no other way, he had to give up.
Shangguan Yi reached into his sleeve, as if taking something out. Linghu Luoxi sat cross-legged opposite Shangguan Yi. Shangguan Yi took out the object, and Linghu Luoxi's eyes lit up. She said in surprise, "You really are my confidant! Come on! I can't touch you!"
The screams stopped for a moment, but only after half a minute, they started arguing again.
Shangguan Yi skillfully went through the items in his hand, divided them into two, and handed one of them to Linghu Luoxi. The two sat opposite each other and quickly put the items in order.
Shangguan Yi sorted out the things in his hands and asked without looking up, "When do you think they will realize we are missing?"
"I don't know, but Chi might notice something's wrong! She's eaten too many spiritual fruits that can help her break through bottlenecks, so she'll break through soon. Once that happens, she'll ask us to protect the formation, but she won't be able to contact us. She'll definitely notice something's wrong."
Shangguan Yi finally raised his head and placed a card between the two of them. He said casually, "I guess the demons might still block any news about us. Since we're missing, the clan might send someone to look for us! But you've already reached the Golden Core stage, so why are you still so weak?"
Linghu Luoxi held a piece of gold foil between his index and middle fingers, without any reaction. "Look, my spiritual power is really sealed! But how can I unlock it?" He put the gold foil on the ground.
"Perhaps only the demons know." Shangguan Yi also picked one and put it down, his eyes fixed on the gold foil on the ground. He asked casually, "Are you thirsty?"
Linghu Luoxi nodded. Shangguan Yi turned his head to look at the birdcage on the right and asked politely, "Hello, can you ask them to come over and bring us some water?"
“…”
As soon as these words were spoken, laughter was heard all around, and the demonic energy on the right became furious.
"Hahaha! You're being treated like a dog! Hahaha..."
"Interesting... hehe..."
"I'm going to kill you!"
The voices around laughed even more happily, and the evil spirit mindlessly slammed into the iron cage again and again. The laughter around was ironic and weird.
Gui Ling frowned, raised his hand, looked at his palm, and said bluntly, "Young Master, someone wants to escape from the magic cage."
The originally quiet and orderly discussion hall suddenly became noisy again. The person sitting on the main seat rubbed his brows and waved his hand nonchalantly, "Nothing, I can't escape."
Yi Xiaoxiao walked from the side to the center, bowed and knelt, "Young Master, we have captured two of your disciples! One is from the Linghu family, and the other is from the Shangguan family. What should we do with them?"
Jun Ze pinched his brows, a headache aching. "Why should we provoke them? Our current mission is just to seize the magic weapon! Right now, we only have the ones from the Li Yue Sect, and His Majesty has only unlocked a part of it."
Seeing Jun Ze getting irritated and having a headache, Ruoruo also stepped forward and said, "Young Master, don't worry. We still have a very useful helper. She can definitely take the magic weapon away. But now we need her to choose us."
Junze nodded in agreement, leaving the matter to Ruoruo and the others. Everyone bowed and left, and Yi Xiaoxiao and the others secretly went to the Linghu Clan. The Linghu Clan's defenses were tight, and the two couldn't get in at all.
Linghu Nuanwei came to the agreed location and secretly opened a passage for the two of them. Then they returned to the house and set up a soundproof barrier.
Chu Wang handed the tea over and stood behind her. Linghu Nuanwei took it and took a sip. "What do you want from me?"
The two glanced at Chu Wang. Linghu Nuanwei put down her teacup and said, "Nothing, go ahead!" Seeing that the two were still hesitant, she crossed her legs and looked sharp, "He is my man! If he makes a mistake, I will punish him! If you are really worried, then this cooperation ends here!"
Ruoruo was silent for a moment, then said, "In that case, we naturally don't mind! But I hope Miss..."
Linghu Nuanwei leaned over and listened to Ruoruo's whispers. Her face changed slightly and she fell silent. Ruoruo was not in a hurry either, but retreated with Yi Xiaoxiao.
Chu Wang saw that Linghu Nuanwei looked unhappy and had a worried look in his eyes. "Miss, what's wrong?"
Linghu Nuanwei said nothing, just gently rubbing the cup, staring blankly at the tea in the cup. Chu Wang saw Linghu Nuanwei was silent, lowered his head and returned to his seat. The water in the cup was rippled.
"Is there anyone who can give me a bottle of water?"
"It seems like you guys are quite leisurely."
Linghu Luoxi and the other person looked in the direction of the voice and saw Junze slowly approaching. The puppet spirit following behind him was slightly stunned when he saw Linghu Luoxi.
The two of them turned back silently. Shangguan Yi placed two pieces of gold foil on the ground and said, "Two!"
"……Pass!"
Jun Ze waved his hand, and the stone slabs floated in mid-air. Jun Ze stepped on them and walked towards the iron cage. The surroundings began to wail again, shrill and sharp. The puppet spirit frowned, raised its hand and clenched it, and the demons screamed frantically for mercy.
“Ahhh… I was wrong! I was wrong!”
"My head hurts! Aaaaaah!"
The puppet spirit lowered its hand, and the surroundings gradually quieted down. Linghu Luoxi looked down, realizing she had lost again, and pounded the ground furiously. Shangguan Yi smiled as he sorted the gold foil. "Come on! Keep going!"
Linghu Luoxi turned around and chuckled, "Do you know how to play?" Before Junze could answer, she pulled him down and handed him the gold foil, "Come on! Come on!"
“…”
Jun Ze's face turned as dark as the bottom of a pot. He gritted his teeth and said word by word: "Have you forgotten that we are enemies?"
Linghu Luoxi unconcernedly pulled the puppet spirit over to play with them, and the four of them sat in a circle. The demonic spirits were speechless, while some of them also watched obediently.
Round after round, the top spot was either Junze or Shangguan Yi, with the exception of Linghu Luoxi, who remained as stable as an old dog. Seeing that he was last again, Linghu Luoxi was completely defeated.
"Hey~ Don't be so excited~ I know I'm the first~" Shangguan Yi teased.
Linghu Luoxi was shaking with anger, pointing at Jun Ze and blaming him, "What are you looking at! You're a member of the demon clan, and you're trying to play tricks on us? Have you finished your job? You're just slacking off here!"
Gui Ling and Jun Ze were stunned when they heard this. Linghu Luoxi then remembered that the language of the demons was slightly different from that of the cultivators. Looking at the stunned looks in their eyes, Linghu Luoxi immediately became discouraged.
Shangguan Yi washed the gold foil without looking up, "So when will you let us out?"
Jun Ze was silent for a moment, and then he said in a low voice, "Your Majesty said that there are three rare and precious fruits that should be picked at the end. I will give them to you to taste after I pick them..."
Linghu Luoxi and the others didn't care at all, "Oh~ So when are we going out?"
"Don't even think about leaving. The young master won't agree." said Gui Ling.
"Oh! Then tell me what you use the stolen magic weapon for?"
Gui Ling paused as he placed his cards, looking displeased at Linghu Luoxi. Linghu Luoxi stuck out her tongue and said nothing more. Jun Ze remained silent, placing down the two pieces of gold foil and falling into deep thought.
As soon as the two returned to the Demon Clan, Yi Xiaoxiao handed the wooden box to Junze. Junze took it and went to a cave. He opened the box, revealing a snow-white jade flute. Junze forced the demonic energy into it, and in an instant, a blinding red light flashed. The red light drifted into the cave.
After the red light drifted into the cave, a powerful air pressure nearly blew Jun Ze away. A deep voice rang out from the cave, and its first words were—"Go... grab all the remaining magic weapons for me! I want to rule the world of cultivation! No! Rule the whole world!"
"Coal? Coal!"
Immersed in memories, Junze was brought back by a call. He put down the gold foil, stood up and said, "Puppet Spirit, let's go!"
"Oh! Don't you want to continue playing? Then remember to come again next time!" Linghu Luoxi threw away the gold foil in his hand and asked.
Junze and the other man walked out of the iron cage and left. Shangguan Yi stretched lazily and exchanged glances with Linghu Luoxi, revealing malicious expressions.
Linghu Luoxi somehow stole the key. Shangguan Yi turned around, and Linghu Luoxi took the key and unlocked the soul-locking ring behind his neck. The two of them stretched their muscles twice and raised their hands to conjure a fireball.
"Bang--"
The iron cage was extremely hard and could not be changed even with magic. Linghu Luoxi wanted to draw a teleportation talisman, but she had no paper or pen.
"What now?"
"Wait till the end of time..."
"It's been pitch black here. I don't know whether it's day or night." Linghu Luoxi said dejectedly.
As the sun sets, Xuan Xuan passes by Linghu Luoxi's room and sees the door is closed. He squints his eyes and thinks: Why did Junior Sister go to bed so early today?
Lin Junze came over from not far away, "Fourth Junior Brother, what are you doing here?" He glanced at Linghu Luoxi's room, "Since Junior Sister is asleep, let's not disturb her."
After saying that, Lin Junze pulled Xuan Xuan away. The next morning, Xuan Xuan came to look for Linghu Luoxi as usual, but the room was still empty.
The leader of Tongjian Sect had not seen Shangguan Yi practicing sword for a day. Qin Ling and the other five leaders were sitting in the discussion hall.
"Can you please take care of your guy? My disciple has been playing with your guy all day and night lately and has disappeared! Today you must ask your disciple to return my disciple to me!"
Fan You stroked his beard and said, "I don't know where they went! Maybe your family abducted my family."
"That's strange. Don't they usually look for the one from my family? Why haven't they looked for her recently?" Yun Xue asked puzzledly.
While the five clan leaders were arguing, Shen Chuwei gently waved his folding fan, walked over slowly, picked up the tea on the table, and took a sip. "It's okay that he wasn't here yesterday, but he's not here today either. Maybe he was kidnapped."
The whole place erupted in an uproar when these words came out. Chen Chuwei sat down to sip her tea without panicking. Yun Xue frowned, "We must not let that kid Chi An know about this. She could break through at any moment!"
"Indeed! I'll send someone to look for it!"
Chi An, who was hiding outside the door, had a solemn expression on his face. He turned around to look for someone, but just as he took a step, he stepped on a branch with a "crack".
"who?!"
Chi An raised his foot and wanted to run, but suddenly he felt a pain in his heart. Chi An felt the pain was splitting, and he grabbed the clothes on his heart and walked unsteadily. The five clan leaders went out to check, "Chi An?!"
Chi An's feet slipped and he fell. Yun Xue picked him up and her face changed. "Oh no! Chi An is about to break through!"
After that, Yun Xue and the others quickly sent Chi An to an open space and formed a protective formation.
