Shi Xuan's sword energy struck his defensive magic weapon, shattering it instantly!
Tu Yecheng's demonic energy dissipated after being beaten, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
At this moment, Tu Yecheng already knew that he had no chance of winning this battle.
He quickly released the little demonic energy he had left, and a black mist spread out, making it impossible to see.
Under the cover of demonic energy, Tu Yecheng retreated quickly.
If this continues, he might be in danger.
Now, take this opportunity to escape. If you can't win, can't you at least run away?
As it turns out, it seems he really couldn't escape!
Just as he was retreating rapidly, a formation had already enveloped him. Lu Shenzhi, who had been missing for a long time, was waiting behind him!
A net has already been cast, a trap that can be set in all directions.
The reason Shi Xuan did not end the battle immediately was because she was waiting for Lu Shenzhi's formation.
For a demonic cultivator with cultivation equivalent to the Nascent Soul stage, capturing him alive is not easy. If he sees that he cannot defeat his opponent, he can simply run away.
Injuring him isn't difficult; killing him or capturing him is the hardest part! Even killing him is harder than capturing him alive.
That's how the process of cooperating with Lu Shenzhi came about.
She held off Tu Yecheng while Lu Shenzhi went out to set up the formation.
Once the formation is complete, that will be the time for her to reveal her true intentions.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Tu Yecheng immediately tried to activate the teleportation talisman, but his move had already been anticipated by the two people in front of him.
The formation that Lu Shenzhi set up was called the Demon Imprisoning Formation!
Within this formation, Tu Yecheng couldn't unleash any demonic energy! He was immediately terrified; was he going to die here today?!
As soon as Shi Xuan's Ice Soul Sword was drawn, it struck Tu Yecheng, who was trapped in the formation and had no power to resist.
She didn't kill him; she merely shattered his demonic core with a single sword strike.
The first step for a demonic cultivator to become a demon is to transform into a demonic core, roughly equivalent to a cultivator's dantian. However, while a shattered dantian is difficult to restore, a shattered demonic core only temporarily transforms a demonic cultivator into the lowest level. It will eventually condense again, but it will take several more years.
So when Tu Yecheng discovered that Shi Xuan had no intention of killing him, he was relieved.
The Tu family is not to be trifled with. As long as they survive, they can always turn things around. When he regains his freedom, he will definitely take revenge for today's humiliation.
Shi Xuan had no idea what he was thinking, gritting his teeth. She bound Tu Yecheng tightly with the Demon-Binding Rope and stuffed him into her separate space that could hold living beings.
By this point, they could be fairly certain of their previous guesses. However, since the matter was of great importance, Shi Xuan immediately took out his communication jade and reported the matter to the sect and his master.
If word got out that the entire family had fallen into demonic possession, it would likely cause a sensation throughout the cultivation world.
Demonic cultivators have reappeared! And the first thing they did was bring news of an entire family falling into demonic possession, plus the Fan family father and daughter... Beneath the seemingly calm surface of the cultivation world, undercurrents are already surging.
How many more cultivators have fallen into demonic possession without their knowledge? The peaceful days of the cultivation world are probably over.
The matter was of great importance, so Shi Mingxiu immediately organized a group of high-ranking cultivators from his sect to travel to Nuojiang. He also notified the other four major sects in the western region of Qianyuan, instructing them to send personnel and take precautions.
At the same time, Shi Xuan and Lu Shenzhi also set off from Jitong to Nuojiang to meet up with the sect.
The Lianfeng Sword Sect was closer to Nuojiang, and Lu Shenzhi couldn't care less about the ugly spirit boat at this moment, so the two of them chose to take the faster spirit boat.
Five days later, when they arrived in Nuojiang City, the sect members had already arrived ahead of them.
Shi Mingxiu personally led the team. When he saw Shi Xuan and the other two approaching, he said with a serious expression, "The Tu family is wiped out."
"They ran away?" Shi Xuan asked in surprise. "The entire family is gone?"
Shi Mingxiu nodded and said, "It's as if they've vanished into thin air. We interviewed the residents here, but no one saw how the Tu family moved away. All we know is that five days ago, all of the Tu family's shops and gambling dens stopped opening, and we haven't seen a single member of the Tu family since."
"Five days ago?" Shi Xuan said, "Wasn't that when we captured Tu Yecheng?"
As she spoke, she released Tu Yecheng from the space.
Tu Yecheng had been in the dark and cramped space for five days when he suddenly saw light. He squinted slightly before slowly opening his eyes and seeing the scene around him.
He knew this place all too well! He had actually entered the territory of the Tu family!
The Tu family was a powerful and influential force in Nuojiang. Now that he had arrived, he had hope!
But his hopes were extinguished by a single sentence from Shi Xuan.
"The entire Tu family fled, abandoning you behind."
"Impossible!" Tu Yecheng struggled against the binding ropes, exclaiming in alarm, "Don't try to scare me with your clumsy methods! How could you frighten me with such a ridiculous trick!"
Without saying a word, Shi Xuan grabbed him by the collar and flew up on his sword, suspending him beneath it and carrying him around the Tu family mansion.
Shi Xuan flew extremely low, allowing Tu Yecheng, who was hanging upside down below the flying sword, to get a clear view.
On several occasions, Tu Yecheng nearly crashed into the roof below.
He saw with his own eyes that the entire Tu family home was indeed deserted, with nothing left!
Impossible! How could this be? Isn't he the patriarch's most beloved youngest son? Now that he's been captured, instead of trying to save him, they're fleeing as a whole family. What kind of logic is that!
The spoiled young master, accustomed to his domineering ways, has never seen the other side of humanity. When real danger arrives, he could be the one abandoned.
This result was a huge blow to Tu Yecheng, and he was unwilling to accept the current reality.
After carrying him around the Tu family's residence, Shi Xuan returned to the original spot and put him down.
Tu Yecheng sat there blankly, his eyes unfocused. The time he had spent hanging upside down on the flying sword had left him disheveled, his hair and clothes in disarray.
"Tell me, where did they escape to?" Shi Xuan asked.
The pressure on Tu Yecheng was intense here, not only because the sect leader of the Lianfeng Sword Sect was present, but also because two cultivators at the Void Refinement stage, including Lin Daozi, had arrived.
As for the Tu family, only Tu Yecheng remained, looking haggard and slumped on the ground, bound.
Under the watchful eyes of so many people, he finally realized he was afraid.
"I...I don't know..." he stammered, his eyes flickering.
Upon hearing this, Shi Xuan smiled. It was a perfectly normal smile, but to Tu Yecheng, it sent shivers down his spine.
"Think it over carefully, think it over before you speak," Shi Xuan said gently. "Look, if you don't know anything, what use are you? You agree, right?"
