After reconciliation with Jianzun

Wushuangzhou is located in the north-central part of the entire continent, densely populated and full of aura.

Xilai Palace was built on the ruins of the palace of a human emperor, without any dangerous mountains and seas of clouds. It is more like an exaggeratedly large martial arts school than a sect of self-cultivation.

Due to the troubles caused by demons and monsters in the past hundred years, many people moved to live near Xilai Palace, and gradually formed Xilai City.

Rumor has it that Xilai City is prosperous and prosperous. Even in the middle of the night, there will be people bustling with small stalls on the side of the road. The long street is brightly lit, and half-grown children can go out to play alone.

But when Ye Zhili and the others arrived in the outer city of Xilai City, their eyes were full of desolation and desertedness. .

There are some small wooden carts scattered on the ground, and the plaque of huanghuali is lying in the middle of the road. It must have been stepped on several times in a panic. Only "Gong Yi" is left of the gilded "Zhang" on it. , the straw frame used to put the candied haws was lying three inches from the side of the plaque. At first glance, the living things on the whole street were densely packed flies on the hawthorns.

Yao Wu muttered as soon as he landed: "Hey, this change is quite big."

Sheng Jian only glanced at the end of the long street, then turned around and led the three of them towards the other end.

After walking around a corner, a female disciple wearing Xuanjian Pavilion's disciple uniform came up quickly: "I've met Sword Master, Hall Master Hei, Hall Master Yao, and Liaison Envoy."

Hei Wuchang asked: "What's the situation now?"

The female disciple respectfully said: "The inner city of Xilai City, including the Xilai Palace, has been completely occupied by monsters, except Hall Master Xu, disciples from all major sects have been arrested in this Xilai Palace.

"The number of people killed and injured in Xilai City is unknown, but the demons are obviously more interested in monks. According to preliminary statistics, at least [-] of the [-] people in the main city escaped.

"The various sects are now gathered in the outer city of Xilai City, discussing rescue plans."

Heiwuchang: "Is there any news from Xilai Palace?"

Female disciple: "No. The elders of the Qingshan Sect and the chief disciple of Mingfengtang led people into the Xilai Palace sect's residence three days ago. The monks who tried to infiltrate the Xilai Palace these days have been unable to get out. But the monsters also No monk's body was thrown into the outer city, so we judge that all the disciples of the major sects who were captured are still alive."

Hei Wuchang looked at Sheng Jian, wanting to see if he had anything else he wanted to ask.

Sheng Jian said in a deep voice, "Who is the devil general?"

Regardless of the small group of demons who came to the world to cause chaos, when the demons have any major actions, there is usually a leading demon general who is in charge of commanding.

The female disciple was not sure: "It should be Xi Le."

Ye Zhili frowned slightly.

Demons are roughly divided into two categories, one is innate demons, the other is human beings, and Xi Le is the latter.

There is very little news about Xi Le in the world, only that Xi Le is ruthless, has never left a living, and is one of the devil's confidantes.

After Sheng Jian asked who the devil general was, he stopped talking and said calmly, "Lead the way."

The matter of rescue needs a long-term plan. The female disciple had already prepared a residence for several people. After hearing Sheng Jian's order, she bowed and said "Yes", and then led everyone to continue walking forward.

Ye Zhili stepped up to keep up, thinking nonstop.

Demons have always liked demonstrations, and they have done things like "accumulating monks' heads and throwing them into the city one by one" many times. Now they have occupied the Xilai Palace and arrested the disciples of various sects, but they have never done anything to the monks in the outer city. What is the purpose of ridicule and provocation?

On Jiuchao Street in the outer city of Xilai City, Qiu Yuankai was discussing the history of Xilai Palace with his companions when he looked up and saw several strange figures appearing on the side of the road.

He took a closer look and saw that the person in the front had an extraordinary aura, his face was as deep as water, and he was wearing a gold and white robe that was spotless. The scabbard of the long sword at his waist was carved with simple patterns of crushed ice. Following the movement of his master, Under the light, the patterns faintly form two vigorous flowing seal characters: Cong Ye.

Yuanheng Sword Master!

He hastily tugged on his companion's sleeve, bowed and saluted: "I have seen Sword Master Yuanheng."

Sword Master Yuanheng is currently guarding the Xuanjian Pavilion in Xushuizhou, and now a hall master of Xuanjian Pavilion has also been arrested, and the Sword Master is probably here to save people.

In that case, that enchanting black-clothed woman must be the ruler of ghosts, black impermanence.

"I've seen the ghost king."

Hearing that Yao Wu, a master of medicine, wears a green silk shirt all year round and never leaves his folding fan, so he continued to pray.

"Meet the Doctor."

Qiu Yuankai paid homage to three people in succession, but when he saw the young man next to Sheng Jian, he had a hard time.

This young man was wearing a water-blue robe with a ring around his waist. He had an elegant demeanor and a gentle smile on his face. He didn't look like a monk, but rather like a young man raised by a wealthy family in the world.

Ye Zhili saw Qiu Yuankai's embarrassment, and was about to take the initiative to make a rescue, when Sheng Jian said, "Yezi."

Qiu Yuankai suddenly realized that this is the liaison envoy sent by the Immortal League to Xuanjian Pavilion, the strange person who released Ren Xinghe's monster identification disk, rewritten it and distributed it to the various sects!

He bowed again: "I have seen Liaison Envoy Ye."

Before his waist straightened completely, he suddenly noticed something was wrong, and raised his head in surprise.

Was it the sword master who spoke just now? !

That taciturn and cold Yuanheng Jianzun is introducing a liaison envoy sent by the Immortal Alliance? !

Before Qiu Yuankai recovered from the shock, other monks on the road came over to salute Sheng Jian and his party.

This is not the first time Ye Zhili has experienced this kind of battle. When he went out with Sheng Jian to slay demons and demons, many people often visited Sheng Jian.

It's just that I didn't expect him to be mentioned one day, and it feels quite fresh.

A few people passed by these saluting monks, and went straight to Yinglin Inn with the female disciple who led the way.

Yinglin Inn is a temporary residence contracted by Xuanjian Pavilion in Xilai City. It is full of disciples and there is no outsider.

The female disciple sensibly took the four of them to the largest box in the inn, then closed the door from the outside, and obediently guarded the door with her sword in her arms.

Yao Wu sat down on the stool, with a distressed face: "This information is too little, I said Heiwuchang, and your intelligence hall has checked so much?"

Hei Wuchang poured a cup of tea by himself: "The elders of Qingshan School and the chief disciple of Mingfengtang brought people into the residence of Xilai Palace School three days ago, and now life and death are still uncertain. You can go in by yourself."

Yao Wu shook his head and said, "I'm a medical practitioner. Fighting is your job. If you lose arms and legs, break golden cores and break tendons, I will take care of you. Master Jian, fight?"

Yao Wu knew in his heart that he had asked nonsense. The situation of Xilai Palace is unknown now, not to mention there are so many monks trapped in it. Their lives, they can't act rashly.

He just asked casually to see what Sheng Jian had in mind.

Sheng Jian: "Find Xu Song first."

Hei Wuchang reminded: "There is a magic circle outside Xilai Palace. As long as we go in, we will definitely be discovered by the monsters inside. By then, Song Song and the others will be in danger."

Ye Zhili asked, "Do you know what type of magic circle it is?"

Hei Wuchang: "A slightly more important person came out of Xilai Palace, the fifth apprentice of the Palace Master, She Yingshao...but he is still in a coma."

Before the few people could say a few words, there was an obvious commotion downstairs in the inn.

A moment later, the female disciple guarding the door asked for instructions: "The consuls of Qingshan School, Yunufeng, Mingfengtang and other sects gathered outside the inn, saying that they want to discuss rescue plans together."

Hei Wuchang raised his brows: "How many days have they been discussing?"

Female disciple: "Counting today, it has been seven days."

Hei Wuchang smiled lightly: "For seven days, nothing was found out, and an elder and a big disciple were brought in. Let them continue to play by themselves, I don't want to listen to any nagging." After finishing speaking, his figure flashed, and he jumped out of the window. out, do not know where to go.

"Hey! Don't go! Put on a show!" Yao Wu sighed at the open window, and turned to look at Ye Zhili expectantly.

Ye Zhili smiled: "I'm from Xianmeng."

Yao Wu looked at Sheng Jian again.

Sheng Jian turned his head and asked Ye Zhili: "Go to see the magic circle in Xilai Palace?"

If possible, Ye Zhili doesn't really want to act alone with Sheng Jian, but since Hei Wuchang is not here, Yao Wu has to stay and deal with people from various sects. Now is not the time to act emotionally, so he nodded and said, "Okay."

So the two left together.

Yao Wu looked at the box which was empty in an instant, and murmured in a low voice: "The family is unlucky."

But now that all the sects are waiting, he can only wave his fan and walk out of the door resignedly.

The moment he stepped over the turning of the stairs with one foot, all the regret on Yao Wu's face dissipated, and he replaced with that exquisite smile that could be called a brother and brother with a few words.

"Elder Xu, Daoist Wu..."

Talking about the two ends, Ye Zhili and Shengjian left the inn and went straight to the inner city area of ​​Xilai City.

If the outer city is bleak, then the inner city clearly bears the traces of being raided by demons. The strong stench mixed with the black air of demons floats in mid-air, and bloodstains can be seen everywhere on the ground and walls.

This place is obviously much more dangerous than the outer city, Ye Zhili didn't dare to stay too far away from Shengjian, don't try to save people when the time comes and fail to save them, instead, he gets involved too.

He called out Liu Xian and held it in his hand, the familiar touch made him calm down a bit.

In addition to confining his body, Sheng Jian also put away all the fragments of Liuxianjian, and went to Master Lianlu to repair it again.

The day after he confessed his identity to Sheng Jian, Sheng Jian returned the sword to him.

Infused with spiritual power, Cong Ye and Liu Xian glowed with ice blue and bright yellow lights in the black mist, illuminating a range of dozens of feet around them.

After continuing to walk forward for a while, Ye Zhili wondered: "I remember that at least 1000 people in the inner city ran out. Based on this number, there are more than [-] people left in the inner city. Now We’ve been walking for so long, why haven’t we seen a single corpse?”

Sheng Jian took a closer look at a courtyard wall: "It's all monk's blood, with this amount of bleeding, no one can die."

Ye Zhili was taken aback.

Cultivators have thick blood, as long as they don't hurt their vitals, they can't die easily. Ordinary people are different. Compared with monks, they are really "fragile".

In other words, the demon intends to capture monks and ordinary people alive.

What are they going to do?
