In the alley, Xiao Wu had a harmless smile on his face, but in the eyes of the spies, it was extremely terrifying.
The spy was trembling and couldn't do it. Life and death were completely in the hands of the demon king in front of him.
"I...I said...the Thirteenth Prince sent me here."
"The Thirteenth Prince!"
Xiao Wu and Xu Nuo looked at each other, and Xiao Wu asked, "Why is he here, but he keeps following us?"
"No...the Thirteenth Prince was out on the street and saw you by chance."
"Where does the Thirteenth Prince live now?"
"At the city lord's residence."
"Are there any strong men around you?"
"No...no!"
Xu Nuo nodded to Xiao Wu, and Xiao Wu immediately shook his Taoist power. The spy's heart was shattered and his body died.
"We have to go back quickly and tell Master and ask him to make a decision."
"Walk!"
At the same time, at the city lord's house, Ji Yanchou summoned Liu Yuan, the lord of Shanghe City. Liu Yuan was a Confucian scholar and cultivated in the Lingxu realm. He became an official in the Zhou Dynasty because of his integrity.
Liu Yuan bowed his hands and said, "Your Highness has summoned you, what is the important matter?"
"Did you know that there is a Celestial Realm Demon King in Shanghe City under your rule?"
"This...how is this possible!"
Liu Yuan looked shocked: "Where is he now?"
"They are right in the city. I have sent people to keep an eye on them. If we find out where they are staying, we will come back and report. City Lord Liu, I need you to summon troops and horses immediately and listen to my call to encircle and suppress the Demon King!"
"However, the soldiers and horses in Shanghe City cannot deal with the strong demon king. I need to ask the court for help and send strong men to capture the demon."
"I'm afraid it's too late?"
"Then what should we do?"
Liu Yuan paced back and forth, looking panicked: "We can't let them in the city and try to lure them out of the city, otherwise the people will suffer."
"I have to report to the court immediately!"
Liu Yuan ignored Ji Yanchou and ran out of the door.
A guard nearby asked Ji Yanchou: "Your Highness, what preparations should we make?"
"When the news comes back and we know their whereabouts, I will personally lead them out of the city."
"Your Highness..."
"No need to say more, I know what's appropriate. What's going on? Zhang Luan has been gone for so long and he still hasn't come back?"
"Do you want me to send someone to pick you up?"
"Go quickly!"
But before the guard went out, two people came in carrying Zhang Luan's body: "Your Highness, it's bad, Zhang Luan has been killed!"
"How can it be!"
Ji Yanchou hurriedly stepped forward and saw Zhang Luan dead. There was a letter beside him. He opened it and saw that it read: "Kill the guards first, then take the prince. The Great Zhou Dynasty will be destroyed!"
"This is too much!"
Ji Yanchou tore the letter into pieces, turned around and shouted: "Gather your troops immediately, I will fight them to the death!"
"Your Highness, please don't be impulsive. We are no match for the powerful Demon King."
"You have humiliated me several times, and I would rather die than surrender!"
"Your Highness!"
Liu Yuan hurried in with a happy face: "Your Highness, Chen Qingbin, the great scholar in charge of Shanghe Academy, has arrived."
Chen Qingbin is a great scholar who has cultivated in the Celestial Realm. If he is here, he will not be afraid of Xiao Wu, the demon king.
So Ji Yanchou hurriedly followed Liu Yuan out to greet him.
This Chen Qingbin is dressed in blue and has gray beard and hair. He looks elegant, easy-going, and unfathomable.
Liu Yuandao: "Please help me, sir, to capture the demon king."
Chen Qingbin smiled and said, "I came here just for this matter, but I wonder where they are?"
Liu Yuan looked at Ji Yanchou, and Ji Yanchou said in a deep voice: "I will send someone to look for him right now."
"I'm just afraid that I might alert someone else."
Ji Yanchou looked unkind. After all, the spy he sent had been killed and he had already alerted the enemy.
Liu Yuanchang was good at observing words and expressions. When he saw Ji Yanchou's expression, and what he had said before about sending spies to follow him, he thought of the whole story, and said, "The blame for this matter lies with the lower official. The lower official was careless and it has been leaked." I just hope they can get out of the city without hurting the people."
"Master Liu is kind-hearted and I admire him for that. But Master Liu, there is no need to panic. I think those people are leaving the city now. We only need to stop them halfway."
"Oh? Are you serious about this?"
"There is a demon king in the city, and I have been aware of it for a long time. You two, follow me out of the city to capture this demon!"
After that, Zhang Qingbin stood up and left. Liu Yuan immediately went to summon the soldiers, but Zhang Qingbin stopped him and said: "In front of the demon king, no matter how many soldiers and horses are, it is useless."
Liu Yuan had no choice but to take two guards and follow him with Ji Yanchou.
On the green hills outside the city, Zhang Qingbin stood in mid-air, with Liu Yuan and Ji Yanchou behind him.
Liu Yuan hurriedly asked: "Sir, I wonder when the demon king will arrive?"
"Don't worry, with me here, everything will be safe!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Qingbin's power suddenly shook, trapping Liu Yuan and Ji Yanchou, unable to move!
"Sir, what do you mean?"
Zhang Qingbin turned around and said, "Nothing, I just wanted to borrow your City Lord's Great Seal!"
Zhang Qingbin slapped it down with a palm, and Liu Yuan was immediately stunned. Then he waved his hand to catch Ji Yanchou, but unexpectedly several people rushed over from a distance, it was the commander of Ji Yanchou's flying wing army.
The four commanders, who had reached the Ying Chong realm, worked together to break Zhang Qingbin's restriction and rescued Ji Yanchou: "Your Highness, leave quickly!"
Ji Yanchou was furious, manifested the musket in his hand, and shouted: "I will take this old thief's life!"
"Your Highness, don't try to gain momentum for a moment, retreat quickly and avenge us!"
The soldiers of the Feiyi Army stepped forward and pulled Ji Yanchou away, and the rest, led by the four commanders, stopped Zhang Qingbin. However, they were no match for Zhang Qingbin. In just a moment, the four commanders died tragically, and most of the soldiers were killed or injured.
Zhang Qingbin waved his big hand, and the clouds in the sky danced, turning into thunder and falling towards Ji Yanchou.
Two soldiers beside Ji Yanchou stepped forward to block him, but no bones were left.
Ji Yanchou gritted his teeth and took out a jade device from his arms. Under the influence of Tao power, the light shone and enveloped his whole body.
The next moment, Zhang Qingbin arrived: "Thirteenth Prince, don't engage in a trapped beast fight. I won't harm your life. All I need is your cooperation."
"Old thief, I will kill you!"
The divine light completely shrouded Ji Yanchou, but before he disappeared, he was hit by a thunderbolt, leaving a trail of blood.
"Is it a teleportation device?"
Zhang Qingbin looked into the sky and couldn't find any trace of Ji Yanchou.
At this moment, a man in black came from far away, smiled at Zhang Qingbin and said, "Mr. Zhang, it seems we're done."
Zhang Qingbin frowned and said, "It's a pity that Ji Yanchou is gone, but my thunder has already hit him and he won't survive for a few days."
"Flaws do not hide the virtues."
The man in black smiled slightly: "Now that we have six yuan in hand, we have mastered Shanghe City. Shanghe City is a thoroughfare in all directions. With it, we have a springboard for the next plan. Mr. Zhang, thanks to your contribution, The leader will remember that when the work is completed, he will be rewarded according to his merits!"
"I would like to thank the leader for his holy grace."
"In that case, let's go back to Shanghe City to make arrangements. Just announce to the outside world that Ye Ling killed the Thirteenth Prince."
"Follow the order!"......
However, Xiao Wu and Xu Nuo returned to the inn to meet Ye Ling and told them how they met Ji Yanchou's spy. .
Ye Ling said: "It's not suitable to stay here for a long time. Let's leave now and rush to Jixia Academy."
So the three of them immediately left Shanghe City. Just outside Shanghe City is the Weijiang River. Ye Ling rented a boat and pretended to be an ordinary tourist and slowly went eastward along the river.
It wasn't until the third day that Ye Ling saw that no one was coming to pursue him, so they abandoned the boat and set sail in the air.
About ten thousand miles away from Shanghe City
, is already an inaccessible mountain forest. There are many monsters in the mountain forest, but their cultivation level is not high.
The three realms where the human race is located are very repulsive to the demon clan and are not allowed to set foot in the places where the human race lives. Even in this mountain forest, if the demon clan has reached the realm of immortality, the human race will send strong men to surround and kill them.
Occasionally, Xiao Wu's demon king aura was revealed, and many demon clans came to worship him in the mountains and forests, but only those with the highest cultivation level were in the Lingxu realm.
Xiao Wu enjoyed this feeling of being aloof and invited these monsters to offer me fruits for him to enjoy.
Xu Nuo didn't like this ostentation, so he and Ye Ling went to the side to sit on the canopy of a tree and meditate.
The Lingxu Realm old demon had already transformed and bowed forward with a flattering look on his face: "Your Majesty, we found a Yingchong Realm human race in the woods a few days ago. He has been seriously injured. If we eat him, It will definitely be of great benefit, why not, Your Majesty?"
After hearing this, Xiao Wu naturally didn't care about the life and death of the human race. After all, all the people they met when they came to the Central Territory were against them, so what's wrong with eating one or two of them?
"Bring it here and let's enjoy it together!"
Not long after, a tiger demon came forward carrying an unconscious man.
The old demon immediately said: "Your Majesty, this is the person."
"Um!"
Xiao Wu stepped forward to take a look and immediately shouted: "How could it be you? Master, senior brother, come over and have a look, our enemy is here again!"
When Ye Ling and Xu Nuo came up and saw it, they turned out to be Ji Yanchou, the thirteenth prince of the Zhou Dynasty!
Ye Ling checked and said, "He was seriously injured and is in critical condition."
"You deserve it!"
Xiao Wu said: "Master, let the disciple eat him and let out a bad breath!"
Xu Nuo frowned and said, "Something's wrong. He's the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Who dares to offend him in the Central Region? A few days ago, he wanted to arrest us in Shanghe City. How come he ran in front of us now and was so seriously injured?" .”
Xiao Wu snorted coldly from the side: "I'm afraid he's used to being arrogant and domineering, and he was plotted against by his enemies. It's his own fault!"
Xu Nuo sighed: "I hope it doesn't involve us."
Ye Ling used his Dao power to enter Ji Yanchou's body, and then said: "There is still hope!"
"ah?"
Xiao Wu looked incredulous: "Master, do you want to save him? It's better for this kind of person to die. If he dies, he will have one less enemy."
"It is better to dissolve enemies than to make enemies. Do you think that if you kill an enemy, you will have one less enemy? Sometimes, if you kill one, you will end up with enemies."
Make more enemies. Killing someone is not the best solution. "
Xiao Wu and Xu Nuo looked unconvinced. After all, in their opinion, Ye Ling had killed many people himself.
Ye Ling used Dao power to stabilize Ji Yanchou's injuries, and then took out a pill for him to take. After a while, he saw Ji Yanchou slowly exhaling a breath of turbid air and opening his eyes.
When he saw Xiao Wu's appearance clearly, he said excitedly: "You guys? If you want to kill or behead me, it's up to you!"
Xiao Wu's nose was twisted and he said: "We were kind-hearted to save you, but you said bad words. Master, I said we shouldn't save him!"
"Hmph! You must have colluded with Zhang Qingbin. There is no need to act anymore. As the prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, I will never compromise with you!"
"What Zhang Qingbin, what acting, what are you talking about?"
Ye Ling smiled and said: "Why should the Thirteenth Prince be angry? Even if we want to harm you, you can only wait for death now. But you can tell us what happened. Maybe we will admit the crime after hearing it."
After hearing this, Ji Yanchou nodded angrily and said, "Forget it, I'll tell you exactly what you did. I'll see if you have anything else to deny!"
