Chapter 253 Imprisonment
Seeing that the time was right, Nan Xiao made a high-profile appearance and killed all the remaining men in black.
Gu An lay on the stone lion in front of the City Lord's Mansion, breathing heavily. "Brother, you finally showed up. These evil cultivators are like dogs for a walk. After we defeat one group, there's another. It's wrong to run, and it's wrong not to run either. We're wasting all our time on them."
He paused and glanced behind Nan Xiao: "By the way, what were you doing before? Where are the others?"
Nan Xiao grinned and said, "I went into the evil cultivator's base camp to check the enemy situation."
Jingzhi's face was also stained with a lot of blood. He wiped it casually and said, "Junior Sister Nan, what did you find?"
Nan Xiao raised her eyebrows slightly and glanced at everyone. Third Senior Brother was not there. He was probably the one who had followed her in before.
She replied, "Of course, I've pretty much figured out the route inside. Everyone else is already inside, so I'm just waiting for you."
"Okay, let's go and finish the things here as soon as possible so that we can return to the sect earlier."
Nan Xiao led the way in front: "Follow me."
The others didn't doubt it much, only Song Hui, who was walking at the end, frowned slightly.
This damn girl showed up at the wrong time, and her smile wasn't well-intentioned.
If you ask him how he figured it out, he can only say that it was his intuition that came from being cheated so many times.
Now that everyone else had followed in, he could only remain vigilant.
Wu Qi and the others in the darkness were also a little surprised. Did these people just believe it?
Nan Xiao led everyone to a wide area without any obstacles.
"arrive."
Jingzhi looked around, "Where are Senior Brother Jiang and the others?"
There is just an ordinary garden around, nothing else.
Nan Xiao approached Jing Zhi with a smile, placed her hand on his shoulder, and moved her lips slightly, with a hint of temptation: "Brother Jing, no matter what others do, since you are here... stay."
Jingzhi's eyes flickered slightly.
The next second, Nan Xiao hit Jingzhi's chest with a heavy blow. Because he was caught off guard, his body flew a short distance before falling heavily to the ground.
The others were stunned by the scene.
All the young disciples of Huanhai Sect gathered around and spoke with concern:
"Second Brother..."
"Second Brother, are you okay?"
“····”
Song Hui held up his sword and asked, "Nan Xiao, what are you doing?"
Gu An also asked: "Brother, what's going on? Is there any misunderstanding?"
Ye Lingling's nose twitched, and she immediately warned, "There's a strange smell in the air, everyone hold your breath."
"What?"
Nan Xiao clapped her hands and said, "Senior Sister Ye is really smart, but it's a pity that it's too late."
Song Hui felt his body go weak, and he quickly mobilized the spiritual energy in his body, trying to suppress this abnormality.
"Nan Xiao, what did you do to us?"
Nan Xiao waved his hand and said loudly, "Brother Wu, this incense won't last long. If you don't come out and catch them, they'll be gone by the time they recover."
As she finished speaking, a group of people in black robes instantly appeared around her.
Jingzhi and others were captured instantly.
Wu Qi: "Well done."
Everyone looked at this scene, and there was still something they didn't understand. One young disciple said angrily:
"Nan Xiao, you actually colluded with evil cultivators and harmed your fellow disciples. You will not die a good death."
"Senior Sister Nan, we trusted you so much, and you're such a disappointment."
“···”
The young disciples all glared at her, Gu An and Ye Lingling looked confused, and only Song Huiqi's eyes turned red.
This Nan Xiao must be his nemesis.
Nan Xiao sneered disdainfully, "You can't blame others for your own stupidity."
She turned to Wu Qi and said, "Brother Wu, let's lock these people up first. There are four of our direct disciples here. They have many magical weapons and are extremely cunning. We need to find a safe place to lock them up. If they escape, my identity will be exposed. I still want to serve you well!"
Wu Qi raised his chin slightly and looked at Nan Xiao with a hint of contempt.
A cowardly clown.
Do you really think you can please both sides by saying a few flattering words?
Little did she know that her master was only using her temporarily. Once all these disciples were captured, none of them would be able to escape.
He said, "Don't worry. The place where they are imprisoned contains an ancient formation, and only a few people can decipher it."
Nan Xiao's eyes lit up, and her tone was a little excited: "Wow, that's great."
"Brother Wu, you've worked hard to stay here all night. Let me help you out." She pointed at Jing Zhi and the others and said seriously, "Let me escort these people to the location myself, otherwise I won't be at ease. What do you think?"
Wu Qi rejected it outright: "No."
He softened his tone slightly, and seeing the girl's disappointed eyes drooping, he continued, "You don't know the way, but I can take you there."
I'm going to die sooner or later anyway, so it doesn't matter if you see it.
Nan Xiao admired and said, "Brother Wu is so nice."
···
Wu Qi and the other two walked in front, while a group of black-robed men escorted Jing Zhi and others, following in a line behind.
Nan Xiao chattered non-stop all the way and had almost memorized the route.
The number of puppets here is obviously more than that in one city. In addition to the different space that Xiaoya mentioned, since they can overlap with Yuehua City, it is naturally possible to establish overlapping points in other cities.
Also, the puppets she has encountered so far are all made by ordinary people. Since they are capturing monks from the sect, they must have also captured a lot of independent cultivators. She can take this opportunity to see if there are any survivors.
As for Jingzhi and the others, she did remind them that if they didn't understand, they deserved to die.
Wu Qi brought Nan Xiao to a cave, where a row of black-robed men stood on each side.
"Open."
A man in black robe checked everyone and confirmed that there was nothing unusual before opening the formation at the door.
Nan Xiao followed Wu Qi inside. The space inside was very large and divided into three floors: upper, middle, and lower. Each floor had countless compartments.
Wu Qi saw that Nan Xiao's eyes were fixed on the prisoners. He narrowed his eyes and said in a nonchalant tone, with a hint of coldness: "Why, you can't bear to see these fools?"
The prisoners on the first floor are all ordinary people, and every compartment is overcrowded.
Their eyes were silent, their expressions painful, and they struggled only by instinct. Some people were even trampled to death in some cubicles because they were too crowded, and no one cared.
Nan Xiao looked sideways at him and said, "Brother Wu, how could you think that?"
"It's their honor to serve you, my Lord." She said earnestly, "Brother Wu, you're the first brother I've met here, and I want to work with you for a long time. I'll keep it a secret for you this time and not tell you, my Lord. But next time, don't sympathize with them anymore."
Wu Qi's eye twitched.
You can't tell good from bad, right?
Wu Qi was too lazy to talk to her and took his men straight up to the third floor.
When Nan Xiao passed by the second floor, he took a quick look. The number of people was not as exaggerated as that on the first floor. They were all cultivators, and there were quite a few of them. Judging from their listless expressions, they must have suffered a lot of torture.
The third floor is quite spacious compared to the first and second floors.
There were three to five people in a single room, which was not crowded at all, but their limbs were tied with chains and they could not move at all.
Nan Xiao quickly glanced at these disciples and judging by their clothing, they were disciples from various sects.
She followed Wu Qi inside and actually found someone she knew in one of the cells.
Nan Xiao turned his head away silently. How did this man get caught?
