Of course, the reason why he dared to do this was because he knew that the old man did not dare to kill him, and even if he taught himself a lesson, it would be too late.
As his voice fell, he bit his finger and squeezed out a drop of blood. Essence and blood floated out and condensed in the air.
Seeing this, Zhu Jia made a hand seal and quickly drew something in the air.
Soon, a strange rune was drawn by him, and then it shot into the air, and disappeared into the void almost instantly.
But it was not over yet. Soon, a bloody light suddenly appeared from the air and landed on the head of Ye Lingfeng. Ye Lingfeng wanted to avoid it, but found that he could not dodge at all. The bloody light seemed to identify him. No matter what he did, it just floated above his head, unable to be removed or even blocked.
"Heavenly Evil Order?" Ye Lingfeng was shocked when he heard this. He obviously didn't know what it was, but it felt weird to have this thing floating above his head.
Immediately shouted: "Zhu Jia, what did you do to me?"
"Hmph, Ye Lingfeng, with the Heavenly Evil Order here, you just have to wait to accept the endless pursuit. Today, with the old city lord here, my sect cannot kill you, but you will always die, but the time will be sooner or later, haha... …”
When Zhu Jia heard this, he did not hide it, but smiled extremely proudly.
Then he looked at the old city lord and Xu Qing and said slowly: "Old city lord, Brother Xu, I'll take my leave. I hope you won't regret what happened today. We'll see you later."
"Damn it!" When Xu Qing saw this, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he looked at the old man and said, "Father, do you want to do something?"
"Let him go." The old man's eyes flickered, he glanced in the direction of Tianxie Sect and said calmly.
"Father, Tianxie Sect and other sects have suffered heavy losses this time. I think Xuzhou will be stable for a while, but how should Ye Lingfeng deal with it? After all, he has killed many people."
Xu Qing said, his eyes finally fell on Ye Lingfeng.
Ye Lingfeng was shocked, and finally understood something. The two of them were not helping him. They were actually trying to weaken the various forces in Xuzhou in order to preserve the strength of the City Lord's Mansion and ensure the status of the City Lord's Mansion.
Now that Zhu Jia has left, as Xu Qing said, various forces have suffered heavy losses. What will they do with themselves?
Of course, Ye Lingfeng would not let others control him. The two flames in his hands slowly condensed, and he signaled to Yue Qianhua with his eyes that if anything happened, he should not worry about himself and leave as soon as possible.
Seeing this, Yue Qianhua shook her head slightly, indicating that he didn't need to be nervous.
Ye Lingfeng's eyes flickered when he saw this, and he fell into deep thought. At this moment, he felt like he was being used. It turned out that he was actually a clown.
After all, the mantis stalks the cicada, with the oriole behind. I thought Zhu Jia was the oriole, but I didn't expect that there was a hunter behind Zhu Jia. These hunters were Xu Qing and his son.
At this time, he was frightened and stared at Xu Qing and the old man with his eyes. Fortunately, they had no murderous intentions towards him. Otherwise, he would have had no choice but to ask Mr. Xuan for help.
When the old man heard this, his eyes were fixed on Ye Lingfeng. Ye Lingfeng was startled and did not dare to look at him. He quickly looked away and asked cautiously: "Senior, you helped the junior to get rid of Zhu Jia. The junior is very Thank you, I don’t know what the senior’s instructions are, but as long as it is within the scope of the junior’s ability, the junior’s definition will be accepted.”
"Okay, Ye Lingfeng, you are a smart man. I believe you have noticed that I have no intention of killing you, but after all, you have killed so many monks, which has caused the overall strength of Xuzhou to decline. You must take full responsibility for this matter. "The old city lord nodded when he heard this. It was obvious that he liked Ye Lingfeng very much.
But when he came to the end of his words, a pair of eyes were so sharp that Ye Lingfeng's heart trembled, and he secretly said: "Are you going to take action?"
The birds are gone, the good bow is hidden, the cunning rabbit is dead, the running dogs are cooked, the donkey is killed by unloading the mill, and the bridge is demolished when crossing the river. Such things have happened frequently throughout the ages, and Ye Lingfeng has to guard against it.
"But since you are mainly resisting and doing it as a last resort, I will not hold you responsible, but..."
The old man said calmly, but did not finish the sentence.
Ye Lingfeng's heart skipped a beat when he heard this, and said to himself: "Finally we have settled the score."
However, although he thought so in his heart, he did not show any expression on his face. Instead, he asked with an indifferent expression: "But what? Senior, please make it clear, whether to kill, sleep, or keep, the junior has no opinion." , After all, the seniors have great cultivation and have participated in creation, so even if the juniors resist, it will probably be of no use."
"You're a boy who sees things clearly. Don't worry, I won't kill you, let alone trap you. I just want you to explain what happened to the nine demon cultivators in transformation. If you don't explain, If the accusation of being a spy of the demon clan reaches the Human Emperor Palace, then even if I want to protect you, it will be impossible for me to do so."
The old man chuckled when he heard this and shook his head. Obviously, he would not kill Ye Lingfeng, otherwise, he would not have waited until now.
"Uh!" Ye Lingfeng was stunned when he heard the words, and his tense mind instantly relaxed. He hurriedly bowed respectfully to the old man and said: "It turns out that the junior has wrongly blamed the senior. You are abrupt, thank you senior. As for the nine The junior did not hide why the demon cultivator helped the junior. The senior must have known about the powerful existence deep in the Tianyun Mountains. The junior was besieged by the leader of the Tianmen, Li Changtian, and had no choice but to save the child of that existence. Therefore, In order to repay the favor of the junior, that being promised the junior that he would take action once and that the junior would tell the truth. If there is any deception, the senior would be free to deal with it."
Ye Lingfeng told the old man what happened in one breath. After finishing speaking, he was breathing heavily,
"Well, your reason is not strong. After all, everyone has his or her own opportunities. It makes sense that you have such luck. Let's leave this matter alone. I will clarify the matter of the demon clan's spies for you. However, I need a promise from you, what should you do if you do something detrimental to the interests of the human race that day?"
Hearing this, the old man didn't know whether what Ye Lingfeng said was true or false, but he only had one reason and had no intention of taking action against Ye Lingfeng. Therefore, as long as Ye Lingfeng's attitude was good enough, he could announce it to the outside world. past.
As Zhu Jia said, this matter had to be guarded against. After all, even he was afraid of the existence deep in the Tianyun Mountains.
As the old city lord of Xuzhou City, he has been guarding Xuzhou City all his life, so he naturally does not want any trouble to occur within his jurisdiction.
The old man has said this. If Ye Lingfeng still doesn't understand what he means, he is really stupid.
Immediately he straightened his expression and said with a serious face: "I, Ye Lingfeng, if I do anything harmful to the interests of the human race in the future, I will definitely die a bad death. My soul will be scattered, and my body will be destroyed."
"Very good. I hope you can remember what you said today. Otherwise, unless you are stronger than me, I will catch you and cut you into pieces even if you escape to the ends of the earth."
The old man nodded when he heard this, and then said with great solemnity.
"Father, is this all?" Seeing this, Xu Qing whispered beside the old man.
"What else do you want?" The old man glanced at him, with a hint of displeasure in his tone.
After hearing this, Xu Qing naturally did not dare to say anything, but looked at the bloody token above Ye Lingfeng's head.
Seeing this, the old man said with some approval in his eyes: "I'll leave the rest to you. I hope you won't disappoint my father."
After that, the old man looked at Ye Lingfeng again and said, "Ye Lingfeng, I am looking forward to your growth, and I hope you will not disappoint me."
"Senior, don't worry, I will definitely live up to your expectations." Ye Lingfeng was in awe after hearing this and hurriedly bowed deeply to the old man.
It's just that the old man didn't respond. When Ye Lingfeng finished his salute and stood up, the old man was nowhere to be seen. Seeing this, Ye Lingfeng was amazed in his heart. His own strength might really mean nothing in front of these real strong men.
"Ye Lingfeng, don't be too happy. Although Zhu Jia won't take action against you in the short term, don't forget that the evil order above your head is both a blessing and a curse for you. I hope you take care of yourself."
Just when Ye Lingfeng was amazed, Xu Qing appeared in front of him, only ten feet away from him. If Xu Qing took action, he would definitely be unable to stop him.
"May I ask, Lord City Lord, what exactly is this evil order? Why can't it be removed, let alone hidden?"
Zhu Jia left, and the old city lord also helped him settle the issue of the demon spies. It can be said that a big stone has fallen in his heart, and now only this weird Tianxie Order is left.
"Didn't you listen to what Zhu Jia said? As long as he can kill you, Zhu Jia is willing to share the Tianxie Sect with him, and the Tianxie Order is on you. Unless you can die, or your cultivation level exceeds that of Zhu Jia, otherwise, you We can only wait for a hundred days. If you don't die after a hundred days, this evil order will disappear."
Upon hearing this, Xu Qing introduced the functions of the Tianxie Order to Ye Lingfeng in detail without showing any signs of impatience.
After all, when he first appeared at the Sword Tomb, he asked Xu Tianyang to destroy it. It was because of Ye Lingfeng that Zhu Jia's plan was shattered. It can be said that Ye Lingfeng helped him a lot.
Moreover, Ye Lingfeng also weakened the strength between various sects, so he naturally wanted to thank Ye Lingfeng.
"Kill order? Mark?" When Ye Lingfeng heard this, two words came to mind, and he couldn't help but salute and thank Xu Qing: "Thank you City Lord for clarifying the boy's doubts. I don't know what else the City Lord has to say. If not, The boy still has many friends waiting to pick him up?"
"Young man, I can't wait, but you don't have to thank me. If you want to thank me, just thank the person next to you. If it weren't for him, I'm afraid you would definitely die today."
Xu Qing shook his head when he heard this, and cast his gaze on Yue Qianhua behind Ye Lingfeng.
"Who? Yue Qianhua?" Ye Lingfeng was stunned and couldn't help being extremely surprised. For a moment, he didn't know what to say.
