This roast goose shop has been uninhabited for a long time.
A thin layer of dust permeated everything.
When Xuanming struggled with its limbs, it stirred up the dust on the roof beams.
Sheng Ning blinked and took a step back. "Once your subordinates discover that you are in Youyun City, they certainly won't think much of it."
"By then, I had already taken you back to the Invincible Sect, tied you up, broke half of your teeth, and had my senior brother make ice blocks to stuff into your mouth."
Xuanming: ......
Su Daiyuan: ......
"What a vicious plan."
Just thinking about the scene of her junior sister knocking out half of Xuanming's tooth and stuffing ice into his mouth made Yu Ye shudder.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Ning turned his head to look at Yu Ye, then grinned at him, "Fourth Senior Brother is too kind."
Seeing the smug expression on Sheng Ning's face, her hands, bound behind her back, clenched so tightly that her knuckles cracked, Xuan Ming said, "Sheng Ning, aren't you afraid of my revenge later?"
"Of course I'm scared. If I weren't scared, wouldn't you take revenge on me? I've tied you up like this."
"Honestly, Demon Lord, you should take back all those goddess statues. Shi Yueyao's current cultivation level is enough to live for thousands of years. As long as she cultivates properly, she can send you away."
"Now that the Heavenly Pillar has collapsed, if one day the Heavenly Pillar really does collapse, even if she fails to ascend to immortality, she will probably not escape death."
Sheng Ning's repeated persuasion failed to convince Xuan Ming to relent.
Seeing the man clenching his teeth, looking defiant and unwilling to yield, she gave him a deep look and then sighed.
"Junior sister, the roast goose is ready."
The voices around her brought Sheng Ning back to her senses.
Sheng Ning glanced at the roast goose in her third senior brother's hand, and her eyes darkened when she saw the other senior brothers sitting around the fire.
She stepped forward and tossed the freshly roasted goose into her spiritual space. "Since the Demon Lord is unwilling to reach an agreement with us, senior brothers, let's go back first."
Seeing that his junior sister was preparing to return to the Invincible Sect, Su Daiyuan immediately asked, "If we go back, what about the demon clan leader?"
The baby was missing even before Sheng Ning disappeared.
The other party was also seriously injured.
The reason why Junior Sister took the infant away from the paradise was so that when they went to war with the demons, the demons could lead their army to help them.
Now that the baby has disappeared, Su Daiyuan felt a vague unease.
Upon hearing this, Sheng Ning raised her eyes and glanced at Xuan Ming.
Seeing that the latter's eyes were closed and he refused to look her in the eye, she chuckled softly.
"As the chief of the demon clan, anyone who captures Xianying is smart enough not to do anything to him."
"If the enemy isn't smart enough and kills the infant directly, then the demon army..."
She didn't continue speaking after that.
Withdrawing her gaze from Xuan Ming, Sheng Ning moved her fingers, and the several Immortal Binding Ropes tied to the roof beam naturally fell into her hands.
Just as she was about to leave with Xuanming in her hand, the latter finally opened his eyes, staring intently at her retreating figure, lost in thought.
The city of Youyun has just witnessed an earth-shattering war between humans and demons.
Sheng Ning and the others originally planned to fly directly back to the Invincible Sect.
But after they opened the door of the roast goose shop, a desolate figure stood with his back to them.
In just a few hours, the aura around the other party changed from being full of vigor to becoming listless.
Sheng Ning raised her hand and patted the other person on the shoulder, then saw the heartbroken expression on the other person's face as they turned around.
She frowned. "Young City Lord, what is this...?"
"Sheng Ning, my father is dead."
A hoarse voice, tinged with sobs, rang out at the entrance of the roast goose shop.
Upon hearing his words, Sheng Ning paused for a moment, then lowered her eyes and whispered, "Please accept my condolences."
Liao Qifeng cannot express his grief.
When he returned to the Lord's Mansion in Youyun City, he happened to see the steward coming out of his father's room while wiping away tears.
Thinking that something had happened to his father, he quickly walked over.
He thought he would see his father one last time, but his father passed away just before he returned home.
The old city lord died with his eyes wide open in disbelief.
As the central town of the continent, Youyun City was once a prosperous place. Various transit stations and sects tried every means to set up their sects near Youyun City.
This once prosperous city was transformed into a living hell overnight.
Liao Qifeng's eyes were bloodshot, almost dripping blood.
When he saw the man in black robes that Sheng Ning was holding, his deep voice rang out again, "Who is this?"
"Are you a member of the demon race?"
"Sheng Ning, hand him over to me. I will take him to my father's bedside and tear him to pieces in front of him!"
Liao Qifeng gritted his teeth the whole time he said this.
He hates it.
The Demon Clan's sudden invasion turned the once peaceful Youyun City into chaos.
He hated himself even more for being so stubborn and leaving his father alone in the city to bear all of this.
If he had realized this sooner and come back sooner, would everything have been different...?
A feeling of utter grief once again spread through my heart.
Liao Qifeng drew his sword, the gleaming tip pointing directly at Xuanming's face. "Come with me, I'm going to kill you in front of my father!"
Xuanming recognized Liao Qifeng; his subordinates had previously mentioned this young city lord of Youyun City to him.
He had been wronged by Sheng Ning and had nowhere to vent his anger, when Liao Qifeng happened to walk right into his life.
A mocking smile appeared on his blackened face.
Xuanming parted his lips slightly and said, "You want to kill me? Why?"
"Because I led my men to invade Youyun City? But young city lord, have you ever thought about where you were when your father fought against me in the city?"
“Your father said you are a genius, that you have already entered the Nascent Soul stage at such a young age, but so what? You can’t even protect a single commoner in the city.”
Every word is piercing to the heart.
The more Xuanming continued speaking, the uglier Liao Qifeng's expression became.
Finally, Liao Qifeng's longsword pierced the skin of his neck.
Thick blood gushed out along the sword, and the natal sword, sensing the blood, instantly emitted a buzzing sound.
Liao Qifeng gritted his teeth, tears and snot streaming down his face, "I'll kill you!"
Just then, Xuanming suddenly turned to look at Sheng Ning, "Sheng Ning, he wants to kill me, can you still take me away?"
The Demon Lord of the Demon Clan, a dignified being, actually resorted to sowing discord.
Sheng Ning was so angry that she laughed on the spot.
She raised the Eight-Star Kunwu Sword in her hand and used it to push away the longsword that Liao Qifeng had plunged into Xuanming's neck.
Facing the stunned look on his face, Sheng Ning looked at him coldly and said, "Young City Lord, do you know that killing him will only bring more disaster to Youyun City?"
"So what! Youyun City has long been destroyed. Look around here, where is the former prosperity?" Liao Qifeng roared.
