Chapter 232 Hell on Earth
At this time, they found that the city lord's mansion had returned to its dilapidated state.
A breeze blew by, raising a cloud of dust. In an instant, the sky and the earth changed color, as if darkness had suddenly fallen.
A chilling sneer came from the main hall: "Hehehe."
Then another cold voice came over: "Since you are here, stay with me...ah~~~What is this~~~"
A burst of golden light illuminated the shadow, causing the shadow's voice to change its tone. He felt that the golden light made him very uncomfortable, and he couldn't even open his eyes.
Gu Yue was seen holding the demon-subduing pestle in his hand, with the pestle emitting a faint golden light. Gu Yue looked at the pestle helplessly. It could really act on its own!
The dark shadow flew towards the backyard.
Yun Xiaosha looked at the demon-subduing pestle in Gu Yue's hand with curiosity. Gu Yue put the pestle away.
The three of them looked at each other, and Gu Yue said, "Let's go and take a look."
They walked through the courtyard. The city lord's mansion was very large, and they had to make many twists and turns before moving forward.
Yun Xiaosha looked around and said, "It seems like there's a formation here, but it doesn't look like it."
She took a folding fan in her hand and fanned it hard in the air, and a gust of wind swept in the direction where the black shadow was escaping.
With a "crash", something collapsed.
The dark figure appeared instantly and asked, "What do you want? Why did you invade my territory and destroy my residence?"
He turned the tables.
Gu Yue said: "You are really good at confusing right and wrong. You were the one who attacked us first. Who the hell are you?"
The dark shadow said: "I am nothing!"
After saying this, he felt that what he said was not right, and quickly added: "I am a thing, not..."
In the end, he realized that no matter what he said, it was wrong, so he simply shut up. Has it been too long since he last talked to anyone?
Yun Xiaosha couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing this.
He raised his hand, and a powerful pressure hit Gu Yue directly. Gu Yue used her spiritual power to condense a spiritual shield to resist, but unexpectedly, the spiritual shield cracked after being hit.
She waved her hand and put away the spiritual shield. She was shocked in her heart: I didn't expect that this person's strength was not weak.
Moreover, the surrounding environment gave her a bad feeling. It was dark and she couldn't see the other person's situation clearly.
She took out a night-shining pearl, and as soon as the pearl appeared in her hand, the surroundings immediately lit up.
The dark shadow raised one hand and placed it in front of his eyes to block the light of the night pearl. After adjusting to the light, he put his hand down.
Yun Xiaosha was surprised and asked, "Are you Cheng Wei?"
This person really looked exactly like Cheng Wei in the illusion. He looked at Yun Xiaosa.
Puzzled, he asked, "Do you know me?"
Since he had been recognized, he waved his hand to remove the illusion, the skylight illuminated the surroundings, and Gu Yue put away the night pearl.
The surrounding courtyards were in a dilapidated state, with only one still habitable. It seemed to be this person's residence, but the right corner had collapsed, probably due to the fan Yun Xiaosha had just opened.
With a wave of his hand, he could make people feel the switch between day and night. What kind of magic is this?
"Of course, you are the famous young master of the Cheng family, the young master who harms women."
Cheng Wei's face changed drastically. Over the years, he had been wandering in this city like a lonely ghost, but couldn't get out.
Although he was able to practice and his cultivation was gradually improving, he always felt that he could not leave the mansion, as if he was imprisoned by something. He always felt that this was his retribution.
"Bold!" He waved his hand and a spiritual blade hit Yun Xiaosha's face. Yun Xiaosha threw out a magic weapon to help her block the attack.
Gu Yue saw that he was using spiritual power, so he should be a living person. Why did the demon-subduing pestle automatically attack? She couldn't figure it out. She said coldly: "The whole city was buried with you, but I didn't expect you to still be alive."
Cheng Wei's face turned pale and blue. He didn't know why they knew what happened more than a thousand years ago, but when it was mentioned, he became angry and embarrassed.
He roared, "I didn't mean to do this, and I didn't want to kill anyone, but the people in Caesar City were devoured by evil spirits, not me."
How ironic! The entire city was wiped out, yet the culprit, the evildoer, lived for over a thousand years!
Perhaps living is torture for him. Being trapped in a city, constantly reminded of the mistakes he made, but unable to make up for them, is indeed a torture.
Li Yuan also looked at him with a look of sarcasm, which made him feel uncomfortable. However, seeing the younger generation being so disrespectful to him, his anger overwhelmed his discomfort.
In Xize City, whoever has the higher cultivation level will dominate everything.
He stretched out his hand, pinched the magic formula, pointed one finger to the sky, and silently recited the magic formula. Finally, he shouted loudly: "Go!"
Gu Yue and the others immediately formed a spiritual power shield to cover the three people. Yun Xiaosha watched as a dazzling spiritual power light rushed towards them, carrying a scorching breath, and the surrounding space seemed to distort.
She felt that she was unable to withstand these attacks, so she raised her hand and threw out a formation plate. The formation plate flew over the three heads and cast a barrier.
With a loud "bang", the attack hit the barrier, causing it to vibrate violently, but at least it was not broken.
Yun Xiaosha breathed a sigh of relief.
Cheng Wei's face turned grim. He hadn't expected these three low-level cultivators to possess a formation disc capable of withstanding his mighty attack. Where did they come from? What was going on in the outside world? Were mid-level magical instruments commonplace?
He didn't know that Yun Xiaosha found this formation plate in Qing'er's cave, and the things inside were not ordinary stuff.
Gu Yue looked at Cheng Wei and said, "Are you angry because of shame? Actually, everything we said was the truth."
Cheng Wei recalled the panic he felt when he heard Fang Wenjun's words on the city wall that spread throughout the city. He recalled this scene countless times and it was still so clear.
His father told him to flee far away to avoid disaster, so he left Xize City immediately. When he returned to the city a month later, he saw Xize City washed by blood by evil spirits.
He watched as Caesar City turned into a hell on earth. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, so strong that it made him nauseous.
The shouting of the monks in the city was extremely uncomfortable to the ears.
The usually smooth bluestone floor beneath my feet became sticky, making every step a bit difficult.
He thought of his father and rushed to the City Lord's Mansion. The door to the City Lord's Mansion was wide open. There was no blood inside, but the ornaments that usually appeared there were gone, as if they had been looted. He anxiously walked around the City Lord's Mansion but did not find his father.
When he walked into his father's study, he seemed to have entered a formation.
He was trapped in the study for several years, and one day he found that he could get out of the study. It might be because the spirit stones that maintained the formation in the study were used up, and the formation became ineffective, so he was able to get out.
But he still couldn't leave the City Lord's Mansion. Every night he could hear Fang Yuanyuan's shrill and desperate screams in his yard.
Later, he wondered if it was a formation set up by Fang Wenjun that allowed this voice to come every night to remind him of what he had done.
