Due to the mix of fish and dragons, Dingxian City has always been the first choice place for evil cultivators to hide.
Qi Yunrong thought carefully about Wu Jiao's thoughtful words before leaving, and his heart sank.
If the Immortal Sect wants to gather all the cultivators and eliminate the evil cultivators hiding in the three states, they are determined not to bypass Dingxian City.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, it became necessary to send disciples to follow the formation cultivators from the Hunde Formation Sect to investigate in advance.
She knew clearly in her heart that there were currently five externalized venerables in Dingxian City. In terms of strength, even Yuecang Sect and Yixuan Sword Sect did not dare to attack them head-on.
However, these five externalized sages each occupy their own side in Dingxian City. They often have conflicts and disputes, and they are not very harmonious.
It is also for this reason that the Immortal Sect is not afraid of Dingxian City's plans. Loose cultivators come and go in pursuit of profit, and they can work together to defend against the enemy because they know very well that if Dingxian City is destroyed, they will not benefit at all. As for the others, they all have their own calculations and fears, and it is difficult to be united.
"Most of the external monks have been practicing in seclusion and have not been born for a long time. Even the True Infant Master only appeared after big changes occurred in the city. Therefore, the majority of people walking around in Dingxian City are still low-level monks.
"And the casual cultivators are not like our sect disciples, who have the same friendship with each other, naturally form alliances outside, and act unanimously with the outside world. They put their own interests first, or have righteous intentions, but they are among the minority after all. "That's why Master said that Dingxian City has been unstable for a long time and asked me to be careful about myself." Qi Yunrong said secretly in his heart.
Wu Jiaosu likes to be carefree and carefree. He only serves as an elder in Zhaoyan in name only. He usually either talks to Xie Jing over drinks or travels around to learn about the world. As a result, he is well-informed and covers the situation in various places.
"Fellow Daoist Qi, we are about to enter the city ahead."
The accompanying disciple of the Hunde Formation Sect is a very handsome young man who has just entered the realm of Ning Yuan. His famous name is Shao Yansheng. He was roughly the same height as her, slightly frail in build, and looked to be about thirteen or fourteen years old. Qi Yunrong unconsciously lowered his voice every time he spoke to him, for fear of frightening him with a loud shout.
Moreover, she herself tends to have a straightforward temper, so the two of them rarely spoke during the trip.
"Fellow Taoist, have you been here before?" Qi Yunrong couldn't help but ask, seeing that he was very knowledgeable and had already taken out the document from his arms.
Shao Yansheng then answered her warmly: "In the past, my master often came here to repair the formations. As disciples, we helped to accumulate experience."
He knew that Qi Yunrong had an extraordinary status. Not only did he come from Zhaoyan, he was a hero on the Xibang list, but he also had a powerful Master Zhen Ying behind him. His own strength and talent were greater than those of others, so he admired and admired him quite a bit.
"Dingxian City prohibits people below the rank of Master Guihe from flying in the air. Fellow Daoist Qi, it's time for me to go down."
It was quite convenient to have a fellow traveler who was quite familiar with the rules of the city to lead the way.
Qi Yunrong followed his whereabouts and praised secretly.
As soon as the two landed, there was a noise not far ahead.
A shabby-dressed Foundation Builder man ran out of the city gate with a frightened expression on his face. The next moment he was about to throw out his flying talisman, intending to leave the place quickly.
However, there were still several people chasing after him, shouting and cursing: "Where did the thief come from? He was so bold that he dared to steal my young master's head. If I don't take your head off your neck today, it won't be over!"
Qi Yunrong frowned and looked at it. Although the person running away was in the early stage of foundation building and had low cultivation, the people chasing behind him were only at the seventh or eighth level of Qi training. In such a situation, the latter shouted loudly and looked ferocious, which was really scary. Fog.
However, her eyes widened at the next moment. She saw the qi-training monks taking out musket-like instruments from their arms and shooting out several balls of flames at the fleeing foundation-building man. What followed was a rapid spread of flames. pungent smell.
Gu Qi and the foundation-building man were hit by the flames. He screamed twice and staggered down from the flying boat transformed from the talisman.
Several qi-training monks quickly surrounded him. They raised the knife and lowered it. The head, which was still bleeding, was grabbed by the leader and hung in the air for public display.
There were many qi-training and foundation-building monks coming and going outside the city gate. Seeing such a scene, I couldn't help but feel frightened. I only dared to whisper: "Which servant is this, acting so arrogantly?"
The word arrogance was half swallowed in his mouth, slurred.
The Qi Practitioner who grabbed the head spit on the body on the ground and shouted loudly to the people around him: "We are servants of the Chu family on Linfang Street. This thief stole the treasure of my young master. Now he is showing his head to the public to cheer up." My Chu family is famous!"
He tossed it casually, and the head was hung on a high branch in the forest outside the city, and sparse drops of blood fell to the ground.
"The Chu family, isn't it—"
"Exactly." Shao Yansheng held his forehead and smiled bitterly. He had never expected that he would see this scene before even entering Dingxian City.
The destination for him and Qi Yunrong this time was the Chu family on Linfang Street. They were invited by the head of the family, Chu Zhenqun, to repair several of the original formations in the house and set up new defensive formations and spiritual gathering formations.
"In Dingxian City, forbidden weapons can be used wantonly." Qi Yunrong was slightly surprised.
The fire guns in the hands of those Qi-training monks just now are forbidden magical weapons that are not allowed to be circulated in most cities in the three states.
This thing is naturally worthless to a Yuan Ning Yuan monk like her, but for the common people and monks at the bottom, it is actually a big killer weapon. By placing the spirit jade inside, the spirit jade can be destroyed by using the runes on the magic weapon. Transformed into explosive flames, it poses a threat to the foundation-building monks.
After all, there are mostly ordinary people in the three states of the human race. The monks have the responsibility to protect them, but they cannot interfere arbitrarily in the lives of the people. Even if the circulation of this kind of magic weapon is prohibited, there will still be evil people who kill people and steal goods. If there is a forbidden weapon in their hands, the world will be in chaos. Therefore, the Immortal Sect directly banned this to benefit the people.
Shao Yansheng explained: "The Immortal Sect almost never interferes in the governance of Dingxian City, and the Forbidden Weapon itself is very profitable. The top people turn a blind eye, and the bottom people become more and more wanton...
"The Chu family's actions are not even considered reckless. Some people dare to openly kill people in the city because they believe they have someone to rely on. In the end, nothing happens."
Qi Yunrong's heart tightened, and he obviously had a new understanding of Dingxian City.
After the Chu family's servants entered the city, no one around them dared to whisper, saying, "I know this man, and he is usually an honest man. How could he commit theft?"
"Hey, don't you know about the young master of the Chu family? Only a few months ago, someone bought the thing he wanted first, and he was stripped of his dantian and thrown out of the city..."
The people around him shook their heads secretly with sad expressions on their faces. Although they did not recognize the deceased very much, they felt as if their lips were dead and their teeth were cold.
"How much do fellow Taoists know about the Chu family?" Qi Yunrong's eyes were slightly cold.
Shao Yansheng was slightly startled and responded: "In the past, I only had contact with the master of the family, Chu Zhenqun, together with my master. In addition to him, I also supported two Fenxuan cultivators, with a total of three Fenxuan cultivators. The rest is not very clear." .
"However, the head of the Chu family is modest and polite, but the children in the family are so..."
He sighed slightly.
