Qiong Ying frowned tightly. This was undoubtedly a major blow. You must know that the main target of this mission, Sun Batian, was in the late Mahayana stage. There was no difference between them facing the former and automatically dying.
When they came out and reached an uninhabited land, Bai Lin couldn't wait to ask: "What should we do now? Let's agree first that it is impossible for me to deal with Sun Batian. I still want to live a few years earlier. "
The incident of publicly angrily attacking Mao for practicing football in a valley somewhere is still fresh in his mind, and Bai Lin is still frightened when he thinks about it.
"Even if you want to, I won't go crazy with you."
Qiongying rolled her eyes at him and then said thoughtfully: "That's it for now. Let's go visit the city lord first and then make the next step."
The next few people disguised themselves and headed to the City Lord's Mansion in the center of Li County.
Occasionally I saw monks passing by along the way. Most of them were praising the Sun family and other three families for their bravery in killing monsters, and at the same time they looked down upon the Sun family.
Wu Tian and others looked at each other. It seemed that the Sun family had gained popularity in recent years.
Soon after, they appeared at the door of the city lord's mansion.
Qiongying took out a strange whistle, but when she blew it to her mouth, no sound came out.
"This is a treasure given by the door. It can contact Immortal Lin Xing." She explained.
After a while, a black shadow flew out from the city lord's palace. If you look closely, you will see that it is an emerald green bird.
It glanced at the four people, then flew twice in mid-air, and then flew back to the house again.
"Follow up."
Clearly, the bird is leading the way.
After several people climbed over the wall, they followed the bird around the houses and came to a courtyard.
As soon as they entered, before they could observe the beautiful scenery of the Immortal's Cave, a powerful Immortal pressure rushed towards them. Bai Lin, who was the weakest, snorted and his face instantly turned pale.
Wu Tian also felt uncomfortable. This coercion was scattered and violent, and there were already signs of losing control.
He looked up at a 100-meter-high peak in the distance. On the top of the mountain, Lin Xing, a young man in black, was sitting cross-legged. His eyes were closed, his expression was painful, and a black line flashed across his face from time to time, which looked very scary.
"Sorry, I can't suppress my immortal power for the time being."
A hoarse voice sounded, and Lin Xing opened his tired eyes and looked at everyone.
The leader, Qiong Ying, quickly raised his hands and said, "Greetings to the city lord. May I ask the city lord what happened?"
"I was attacked by a beast."
Lin Xing gritted his teeth. Half a year ago, he left Li County in search of a spiritual object from heaven and earth. When he came back, he was stopped by a demon from the Ten Thousand Demons Hall.
During the fight between the two sides, another demon fairy suddenly appeared, and he was also good at using poison. This time, he did not have the protective treasures given by his parents to help him. After being poisoned, he luckily escaped back to Li County and has been struggling to this day.
The expressions on the faces of several people who heard the news were moved. Even the immortals could not resist the poison. Wouldn't it be certain that they would die if they got even a trace of it?
The same is true for Wu Tian. Although his body is immune to poison, it depends on the situation, but he still has a problem at this time.
Before he left, Lin Xing heard that he had been injured in an ambush for several years, and now he was poisoned not long ago. If it was just luck, how bad would it be?
After being shocked, Qiong Ying promptly proposed the purpose of her group's coming here. If no one could restrain Sun Batian in the late Mahayana period, then they would have no choice but to give up.
At this time, she had an idea, and then she sent a message to several people: "I remember that the heads of the four major families in Li County are all Mahayana monks. If the city lord is really seriously injured and unable to take action, he can order the other three heads to take action."
Bai Lin and Li Tu's eyes lit up, but Wu Tian shook his head and said: "This road may not work. There is a high possibility that the Wang family will be in cahoots with the Sun family."
When he was attacked before, he saw Wang family disciples and Sun family disciples taking action together. This possibility is not low.
What?
When Qiong Ying was helpless, Lin Xing's voice came over.
"It doesn't matter. Although I can't take action, someone will stop Sun Batian. You don't have to worry."
"This is his communication jade talisman. You can just go to him directly."
"In addition, I also have a steward who has been with me for many years. You can also take him with you."
"Thank you, City Lord." Hearing this, Qiongying and the others were overjoyed and quickly bowed to express their thanks.
After leaving, she sighed: "This city lord is really calm and convincing in his work. Our worries just now were all due to suspicion. All of this was already expected by him."
Bai Lin and Bai Lin nodded in agreement, but Wu Tian had a trace of doubt in his heart.
He had been in contact with Lin Xing before, and he didn't look like the kind of person with a wealthy family. Could it be that he had changed his gender in the past few years?
Soon, several people came to the door of the mansion. At this time, there was a smiling old man standing there. He seemed to be old, but his skin was extremely delicate. With his red face, he looked very happy.
"The old man's surname is Shu. He is the steward of this mansion. The city lord has ordered me to follow you and the young heroes these past few days, waiting for orders."
As he spoke, he also revealed a hint of his aura realm. He was in the early stage of Mahayana. He was clearly a high-level monk in the Mahayana stage.
"Butler Shu is serious."
Qiongying quickly returned the gift.
While they were talking, Wu Tian touched his head, a trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes.
He knew it wasn't that simple, because the old man in front of him had a shiny black mouse on top of his head, indicating that the other person was clearly a monster.
As for why Wu Tian felt that the other party was not a monster that Lin Xing had conquered, there were three reasons.
First of all, he didn't mention it when he was introduced to the city lord's palace, and the old man didn't take the initiative to reveal his identity. The most important thing is that Wu Tian discovered that the way this guy concealed his true colors was very similar to the monsters who sneaked into the Thousand Treasures Pagoda before. .
If it were a monster that Lin Xing had conquered, there would be no need to do this.
Wu Tian wanted to remind him, but when he saw that the two parties were talking happily, he thought about it and could only give up temporarily.
At this time, Qiongying happened to ask the other party about the current situation in Li County. The latter shook his head and said: "It's not good. Now the Red Earth Forty-nine Sect is getting stronger and stronger. If it hadn't happened to start a war between the human and demon clans this time, it would have blocked Li County. The passage to the other side of the city, I’m afraid more people will leave.”
"The three families currently stationed in Licheng seem to be working hard to resist the demon clan's attack on the city, but privately they have been inquiring about the situation of the city lord, and it seems that they want to replace him."
"In addition, five days ago, three nine-turn heavenly demons led a group of monsters to launch a large-scale attack. Licheng's foundation was also forced to be exhausted. It depends on the situation that it will not last long."
Hearing this, several people frowned tightly.
The situation in Licheng is not optimistic.
If we rashly attack the Sun family, even if it succeeds in the end, Licheng's defense force will be severely damaged. What will be done to stop the demon clan's siege?
Just when Qiong Ying was inquiring about the situation of the Four-Nine Red Earth Sect that had appeared, Wu Tian turned to look at Bai Lin aside and asked in a low voice: "What is the foundation of Licheng?"
"It is the result of a city's human destiny, and it can help resist the siege of monsters."
Following Bai Lin's explanation, Wu Tian quickly understood what was going on.
Nowadays, the human race is blessed by heaven, and its body contains luck. If they get together, they can form the human race's luck, and once they encounter a crisis, they can overflow to defend against the enemy.
Just like the monster attack that Licheng suffered a few days ago, the sword of luck turned into human luck directly killed a ninth-level demon and caused thousands of monsters around it to turn into ashes.
However, it is not endless, and it takes tens to hundreds of years to gestate. Once it is consumed, it can no longer help mankind.
"It is in the hands of the city lord. Only he knows how much luck this county has left."
Wu Tian suddenly realized that at this moment, Qiong Ying finished talking to Butler Na Shu, and after he left, she came over and muttered: "I don't know where the 49th Red Earth Sect came from, and he even brought the Human Emperor Dragon with him." Qi, it is said that the luck is enough to kill the invading demon king."
At this time, Qiongying was distraught. Not only did she have to consider the success rate of annihilating the Sun family, but she also had to consider the crisis that Licheng might encounter without the Sun family and the Wang family.
"If it hadn't taken away so many monks, we wouldn't be tied up now."
"I have thought about it, and now there is only one way. Let the people over there come back to help defend Licheng. Otherwise, it will definitely not be able to defend it."
But what should I do with the Human Emperor’s Dragon Qi over there?
Besides, the other party deliberately established a sect there, and now they have so many followers, looking like a small Li County. Are they willing to give up this good foundation and come back?
"Ahem,"
At this moment, two coughs came from beside him, and Wu Tian said with a strange expression: "Well, I am the deputy sect leader of the Forty-Nine Red Earth Sect."
"you?"
The three of them turned their heads in unison, and Qiong Ying stared at Wu Tiandao with those big eyes: "Really?"
"Why did I lie to you?"
Wu Tian added in his heart, in fact, I also know that this Human Emperor Dragon Qi belongs to me, and it has also absorbed the power of my merits. There is also a demon king, the Red Earth Black Turtle, sitting in the Forty-Nine Sect.
Thinking of this, he touched his chest, where a little golden dragon was sleeping.
Since this destiny is gathered by the human race, why can it absorb the power of merit and become stronger? Is there any connection between the two? Or should they be said to be the same thing, just with different names.
"That's great,"
Qiong Ying patted Wu Tian on the shoulder and said, "Then I'll leave this task to you. Let your sect come back to guard Li City, and we can take care of the Sun family."
"Wait a minute," Wu Tian thought for a moment, then looked at Qiong Ying and asked, "Will there be monsters sneaking into your Licheng city?"
"It's not normally possible,"
Qiong Ying shook her head, "With luck guarding them, they have no way to hide. Like Wushuang County, which has a population of tens of millions, not to mention monsters, not even the monster king can get in."
"Are there no exceptions?" Wu Tian asked unwillingly.
"Yes, when luck is poor or there are some heaven-defying treasures to protect the body, some daring monsters may sneak in, but it is limited to monsters below the level of demon immortal. By the way, why do you ask this?"
As a human being with luck, monsters can be killed, even nine-turn heavenly monsters, but not demons, evil ghosts, fairies, or even human immortals. Once killed, they will be stained with sin, making immortals The power of the Three Decays and Nine Tribulations is greatly enhanced.
