Half a day later, Xu Chunniang's figure disappeared into the cross-border teleportation formation.
The city lord withdrew his gaze and was about to leave when he received a message.
"City Lord, Your Highness the Tenth Prince has returned from outside the territory. She is waiting for you in the reception hall."
The city lord said "hmm" unhurriedly, turned around and walked towards the guest hall. Suddenly he thought of something and asked the person who reported the news.
"Only His Royal Highness is here? Didn't His Highness Ninth come?"
"No."
Stepping into the palace, the city lord was about to exchange greetings when his eyes fell on Mu Yun's red eyes. He subconsciously closed his mouth and did not dare to ask any more questions.
It seems that His Highness's trip to the ancient cemetery did not go well.
Sensing someone coming in, Mu Yun raised his eyes and said, "I want to borrow the teleportation array to return to the demon world."
The city lord was startled, then nodded, "Yes, but someone just borrowed the teleportation array, and it will take three days to use it again."
Mu Yun frowned slightly, "Who borrowed the teleportation array?"
She had to go back to the Demon Realm quickly to find out who was attacking their brother and sister. After three days of delay, some things might not be found out.
How could it be such a coincidence that someone rushed ahead of her and borrowed the teleportation array?
The city lord shook his head, "That person is a female cultivator from a human race. She did not reveal her name. She only has the cultivation level of the Earth Demon Empress Realm, and holds the Golden Dragon Token..."
"etc!"
Mu Yun looked slightly strange and asked again, "The human race female cultivator only has the cultivation level of the Earth Demon Empress Realm?"
Seeing her reaction, the city lord had some guesses in his mind and pointed his finger in the void, "Could it be that His Highness the Tenth Prince knows this woman?"
Mu Yun looked at the projection in the void, his expression suddenly became very complicated, it was really her!
When she fell into the hands of the black shadow, she was busy escaping and Wu Xia didn't care about the rest. Unexpectedly, she survived in the hands of the black shadow.
No... with Heiying's terrifying strength, how could Xu Chunniang be able to defeat him?
She has long been connected with the black bone skeleton. In all likelihood, it was the black shadow summoned by the black bone skeleton that spared her life!
And she might have done it intentionally before she could use the teleportation array to return to the demon world.
Mu Yun laughed angrily, with a coldness in his eyes, "Okay, it's really good!"
The city lord looked at her cautiously, "What's wrong with that person?"
Mu Yun lost interest in talking and closed his eyes tiredly, covering up the pain and hatred in his eyes.
"In three days, I want to borrow the teleportation array."
The city lord wisely did not ask any further questions, "Okay, will your highness return to the demon world with your ninth highness?"
The consumption of the teleportation array is closely related to the number of people using the teleportation array. He needs to understand it clearly in advance and make preparations in advance.
Mu Yun was silent for a long time, and then said solemnly, "No, I will go back alone."
The city lord was shocked. His Highness Ninth Prince and His Highness Tenth Prince were twins. No matter where they went, they always came in and out together. However, His Highness Tenth Prince actually wanted to return to the Demon Realm alone.
Could it be that something unexpected happened to His Highness Ninth Prince...
He didn't dare to think about it and lowered his head so as not to look at Mu Yun's expression, "Okay, I will prepare it."
While Mu Yun was waiting in the city lord's mansion, Xu Chunniang had successfully returned to the demon world through the cross-border teleportation formation.
She walked out from the other end of the formation and looked at the unfamiliar sky, feeling calm that she had not seen for a long time.
This is the fourth heaven of the demon world.
After being exiled for hundreds of years, she finally returned.
Perhaps her current strength is not enough to deal with Greedy Wolf and Lian Xing, or even the mysterious black shadow summoned by the Black Bone Skull.
But the demon world is vast and the cultivation resources are much richer than outside the realm. As long as Shenshang is cured, she can continue to practice and improve her strength.
She was about to leave when a guard guarding the formation suddenly blocked her way, "Are you Xu Chunniang? Someone wants to see you, come with me."
Xu Chunniang's heart was ringing with alarms. This was her first time in the Fourth Heaven. Logically speaking, no one should know her. Why was she found so quickly as soon as she stepped out of the teleportation array?
Is it Mu Sha and Mu Yun? Could it be that they returned to Yuan City and the Demon Realm one step ahead of her?
Many thoughts flashed through her mind, and her face remained calm, "Who wants to see me?"
There was impatience in the guard's eyes, "He's a big shot. You'll know it when you see him."
"Okay, you lead the way."
Xu Chunniang didn't ask any more questions and bowed her head obediently.
Seeing her understanding, the guard's expression softened a lot and he walked in front to lead the way.
Xu Chunniang followed behind him, seemingly indifferent to her surroundings, but in fact she was quietly observing everything around her.
In addition to the guards guarding the formation, there are also several teams stationed here to maintain order.
The cultivation level of these guards is generally that of the Earth Demon Realm, and the leader of the soldiers also has the cultivation level of the Heavenly Demon Realm.
She followed the guard and came to the outside of a side hall.
The guard was about to enter the side hall when he suddenly felt a pain in his eyebrows and his pupils suddenly dilated.
His lips moved and he was about to say something, but his body collapsed weakly and fell to the ground.
A vine came out from between his eyebrows, its leaves shaking happily, looking very happy.
Xu Chunniang glanced at the vine. The vine that was still shaking suddenly stopped moving. After it quickly sucked the guard's soul, it shrank back.
From the moment the vine took action to the moment the guard fell into despair, the whole process took less than three breaths, and no one was disturbed during this period.
When the people inside noticed something was wrong and came out to investigate, they only saw a cold body lying on the ground, and Xu Chunniang had already disappeared.
The leader's expression changed slightly, he hurriedly checked the corpses on the ground, quickly took out the summons, and reported the news to his superiors.
Soon, the teleportation array in the side hall lit up, and a general in light armor with a majestic temperament walked out of it.
He slowly stepped out of the side hall and immediately locked eyes with the fresh corpse on the ground, his brows furrowed in displeasure.
"what happened?"
The leader detached the others and reported to him alone.
"The cause of death was the dissipation of the spirit. The time of death was about a quarter of an hour. Except for the wound between the eyebrows, there were no external injuries on his body."
"The person is dead, where is the person your Highness wanted?"
The leader lowered his head in shame, "It would alarm the others and cause unnecessary trouble to His Highness. It just so happened that the female cultivator was very cooperative, so we didn't send out too many manpower..."
"A bunch of trash."
The general's eyes flashed with chills, "Have you forgotten what His Highness told you? Or did you despise him when you saw that the man only had the cultivation of the Earth Demon Realm?"
The leader lowered his head even lower. He had no way to argue, because he did have contempt.
"The subordinates are incompetent and are left to their own devices."
"I'll find you again and I'll settle the score with you."
The general snorted coldly, "She has only been away for a quarter of an hour, and she must not have gone far. Now take people to search for her. If you find any signs, don't act rashly. Report to me immediately!"
"Yes!" (End of this chapter)
