Demon Realm, Wusu.
There is a mud pool under the huge dead tree, and the smoking city wall outside Wusu City is reflected in the mud pool.
A man wearing a black and gold robe stood under the tree with his hands behind his back. His curly black hair hung down to his waist, and he wore a black ring on his slender, bony fingers.
He had a very beautiful face and a tall and straight figure.
The youthful demeanor of the past has completely faded away, and he has become a ruthless, deep and noble man.
The man watched the fighting in the city with indifferent eyes.
"My lord, Yingci has surrendered." Xiao Pin appeared in front of Cen Ji and reported respectfully.
"Surrender?" Cen Ji said softly with a faint smile on his lips.
"Yes." Chopin nodded hesitantly, not understanding what Cen Ji meant.
The Lord's appearance has changed a lot in recent years, but the ambition and gloom in his eyes have never changed.
"You're mistaken. It should be the Wusu lord Yingci who rebelled. The Holy City sent troops to encircle and suppress him. Yingci refused to surrender and was beheaded on the spot." There was a cold look in Cen Ji's eyes.
Yingci had helped Ghost Blade fight him for so many years, and now she still wanted a peaceful ending? What wishful thinking!
It has been seven years, and he has not been able to meet the little ghost during these seven years. During these seven years, the Demon Realm has been in endless war, and Ghost Blade cannot control him with the Devouring Delusion Curse, so he can only join forces with Yingci to attack the Holy City.
Over the years, countless wars and deaths have dyed the land of the Demon Realm red.
Cen Ji's eyes were used to seeing life and death, so he let go and fought with Ghost Blade.
Xiao Pin was stunned for a moment, then he understood what Cen Ji meant. "I understand."
Normally speaking, surrendered soldiers cannot be killed in the Demon Realm, but the Lord does not want Yingci to surrender. What he means is that Yingci must die.
"My lord, Ghost Blade has escaped. I have sent troops to chase him." Feng Xu, dressed in purple, ran over from a distance.
"Run away? Where are his men?" Cen Ji asked coldly.
"They are all still in the city." Feng Xu pointed to the city gate, which was heavily guarded. Gui Ren could escape, but his men could not.
"Kill them all, cut off their heads and hang them on the city gates."
"Run." Cen Ji chuckled. "Where can he run to?"
In today's battle, Cen Ji mobilized all the troops of the Holy City in order to capture the Ghost Blade in one fell swoop.
The Ghost Blade was like a spark on the grassland. If he wasn't careful, the Ghost Blade would increase the fire and burn it back again, so he couldn't leave him any chance.
"My lord...kill them all?" Feng Xu asked in shock.
Ghost Blade has at least thousands of subordinates, if not tens of thousands, and so many of these soldiers are all citizens of the Demon Realm.
"When they followed Ghost Blade, they should have thought about the consequences. If they leave anyone alive, you will be the one to be held accountable." Cen Ji said coldly.
He will not give Ghost Blade any chance to turn the tables.
"My lord, the Delusion-Devouring Curse in your body has not been lifted yet. If we push Ghost Blade into a corner... I'm worried..." Feng Xu said in embarrassment with his eyes lowered.
The Delusion Devouring Curse within Cen Ji's body could not be broken except by Ghost Blade. If Ghost Blade knew that all his men had been killed, there was no guarantee that he would not go all out...
Cen Ji's deep eyes were filled with a smile as he looked at Feng Xu meaningfully.
"He won't."
Ghost Blade is a very cunning man. He would never do such a stupid thing even if he was desperate.
"But..." Feng Xu still couldn't let go.
He wondered why the Lord was so fearless. Even though the Lord was under such a powerful curse as the Delusion-Devouring Curse, he acted as if it was a piece of cake. There was no sign of pain on his face at all.
"Do as I say." Cen Ji said softly as he looked at the flames rising into the sky in Wusu City.
Over the years, countless people have died.
Even if Ghost Blade's men are innocent, then aren't his dead soldiers innocent?
No matter what, he must give an explanation to the soldiers who died in the war.
"Yes." Feng Xu saluted and disappeared on the spot.
"Qi Jiang, let them deal with it before returning to the Holy City." Cen Ji said.
"I obey your command!" Qi Jiang appeared and saluted respectfully.
A black mist rose and the silence disappeared.
Cen Ji returned to the City of No Return and walked on the streets of the Holy City.
After today, the situation in the Demon Realm will become clear, and his mood will improve.
The sun is shining brightly today, so it doesn't look like it's going to rain.
He hadn't been to Guiyun Sect for a long time and wanted to find a day to meet the little ghost.
"What? Did you buy this demon pill?"
"Yes, I bought it in Jiuzhou. This is the first time I know there is a place selling demon pills in Jiuzhou."
"Where did you buy it? I'll go check it out later."
"In Fuzhou, it seems to be called... Xingyue Pavilion."
Cen Ji listened to the whispers of passers-by without changing his expression.
Star Moon Pavilion......
After the inn in Fuzhou was bought by Xiao Gui, it was handed over to a man named Xiao Si. This man used some unknown means, but in just one year he built Xingyue Pavilion into a shopping mall that was known to everyone in Jiuzhou.
The Xingyue Pavilion not only has talismans and spiritual weapons, but also spiritual pills and spiritual herbs. It also has its own talisman masters, weapon masters, and alchemists, and now it even sells demon pills.
Xiao Si calls himself the master of Xingyue Pavilion. Two years ago, he bought half of Fuzhou City. Now he is considered half the city lord of Fuzhou.
This person is not simple. Fortunately, Xiao Gui has not gone to Fuzhou to look for him in recent years, otherwise he would not be able to spare his life.
Not only did Xiao Si open the Xingyue Pavilion in Jiuzhou, but now he has expanded his business to the Demon Realm.
Cen Ji was feeling unhappy, and his original desire to go for a walk was gone.
Although he disliked Xiao Si, he couldn't do anything about him. Xingyue Pavilion was the little ghost's territory. He couldn't destroy it or demolish it. Xiao Si was really an eyesore to him.
When he sees the little ghost, he will buy her hundreds of shops, calling them Sun Pavilion or Cloud Pavilion, but he will not let her go to the Star and Moon Pavilion again.
