In the City Lord's residence, Su Zimo and Lin Luo were both occupied with their own thoughts and did not speak for the entire night.
The next morning, footsteps could be heard outside the door.
Su Zimo and Lin Luo exchanged glances before pushing the door open. Standing at the door was Jiang Xuanyou and a group of Imperial Army guards under him.
"Please follow me."
Jiang Xuanyou said and led the way.
Su Zimo and Lin Luo followed behind. After walking for a while in the City Lord's residence, they arrived at a huge palace.
The palace was a little strange. It was surrounded on all sides and was hollow in the middle. From the outside, one could see the tip of a Saturn Peach Tree in the middle of the palace.
Under Jiang Xuanyou's lead, Su Zimo and Lin Luo stepped into the main hall.
The main hall was bustling with noise and excitement. At a glance, there were thousands of cultivators gathered here and they were discussing fervently.
Most importantly, the auras of these thousands of cultivators were powerful and they were all Perfected Immortals!
Song Xuan had invited most of the Perfected Immortals in the five cities for the Blood Peach Banquet and it was a grand occasion.
With thousands of Perfected Immortals in the main hall, even if they did nothing, they would form an invisible and powerful aura!
If Heavenly Immortals were here, they would inevitably feel guilty and fearful.
The Heavenly Immortal Imperial Army guards behind Jiang Xuanyou did not dare to step forward at all and they looked fearful.
Jiang Xuanyou sneered in his heart and looked at Su Zimo and Lin Luo behind him, wanting to see them make a fool of themselves.
However, the outcome disappointed him greatly.
Lin Luo had a calm expression. This young girl did not seem to be intimidated by such a formation.
Jiang Xuanyou thought about it.
Lin Luo was the daughter of an Immortal King after all and she had been by his side for many years. Naturally, she was knowledgeable and her Dao heart was strong. It was understandable.
What puzzled him was why Su Zimo was so calm and composed as well.
Although this kid came from Heaven and Earth Academy, he was only a level five Heavenly Immortal, an outer court disciple. How could he deal with such a situation?
At this moment, many cultivators were gathered at the side of the hall, and they were looking at the tall and thick Immortal Peach Tree at the center of the hall while pointing and discussing animatedly with excited expressions.
At the front of the crowd stood five people.
One of them was the City Lord of Lang Feng City, Song Xuan.
Jiang Xuanyou led Su Zimo and Lin Luo in that direction. Through the crowd, they could see the peaches on the peach tree that were covered in blood. They swayed slightly and looked extremely strange.
"I have the honor of tasting a xenogeneic blood peach. Thank you, Brother Song."
Among the five, the man on the far left wore a long blue robe. His long hair draped over his shoulders, and he held a jade folding fan in his hand.
"Sure."
Song Xuan said, "Naturally, I wouldn't monopolize such a Worldly Variant. The first thing I thought of was the four of you."
The other four smiled and expressed their thanks.
Lin Luo sent a voice transmission to Su Zimo with her consciousness. "The other four are the City Lords of the remaining four cities in the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain."
"The man on the far left is the City Lord of Qionghua City, known as Young Master Lantian."
"The tall one on his right is the City Lord of Hanging Cattail City, Hong Shan."
"The one in the middle is Song Xuan, and the woman on his right is the City Lord of Bright Candle City, Fairy Nanyang."
"The skinny man on the far right is the City Lord of Heaven Wall City, Gu Xiu."
Su Zimo nodded secretly.
If he was not mistaken, these five City Lords should be the five strongest True Immortals in the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain.
According to their positions, Song Xuan should be the leader of the five.
The five City Lords of the Jade Firmament Immortal Domain had gathered!
Su Zimo and Lin Luo followed behind Jiang Xuanyou. They passed through the crowd of True Immortals and continued forward. The closer they got, the clearer they could see.
Su Zimo's gaze went past the five City Lords. In the corner of the hall, there was a stone pillar. There was a skinny figure tied up by chains, leaning against the stone pillar.
Although the figure had its head lowered and its messy hair covered most of its face, Su Zimo could still recognize it at a glance. It was Momo!
Momo looked even skinnier than when he was in the lower realm. He was like a bag of bones, and his exposed skin was pale without any color.
Even the chains tied to his body were thicker than his arm.
It was hard to imagine how much torture and pain he had endured all these years!
Momo was different from all the other cultivators in the world.
Up till now, Momo's hands had not been stained with any blood.
Momo had fought and killed with others. In fact, he had even devoured large amounts of life essence in blood to cultivate.
However, he had never killed any living being!
Regardless of whether the other party was good or evil, immortal or fiend, Momo had never killed them.
Among the thousands of living beings that could ascend from the lower realm, regardless of whether they were good or evil, who did not have blood in their hands?
Who did not have corpses beneath their feet?
However, Momo himself was an anomaly.
He had never killed and his body was not tainted by karma!
Even if someone released the Red Lotus Karmic Fire on Momo, it would not have any effect.
Yet, such a pure child who could not bear to kill and was not tainted by karma was enduring such pain right now.
Immediately after, Su Zimo saw another scene. He could not help but shudder as a murderous intent flashed through his eyes!
The Immortality Peach Tree in the middle of the hall extended slender branches that extended towards the stone pillar and pierced Momo's body.
Every single branch was like a bloodthirsty worm that was devouring Momo's blood in large mouthfuls!
Momo had long fainted. At this moment, he was trapped on the stone pillar and his body twitched uncontrollably.
Even though Lin Luo did not know Momo, she could not bear to see this scene and frowned.
Lin Luo sensed the killing intent from Su Zimo and was shocked. She grabbed Su Zimo's hand hurriedly and grabbed it forcefully.
Su Zimo glanced sideways with bloodshot eyes.
Lin Luo looked into his eyes and shook her head gently, indicating for him not to be rash.
At this moment, if Su Zimo rushed forward and fought with his life on the line, he might not even be able to touch the corner of Song Xuan's clothes before he was killed on the spot!
With thousands of Perfected Immortal experts, any one of them could kill Su Zimo!
Su Zimo closed his eyes and took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down.
Qinglian's true body could not save Momo. She could only wait for Wu Dao's true body to arrive.
After Wu Dao's true body entered the Jade Heaven Immortal Domain, he sped at full speed. After a while, he would reach Lang Feng City!
"Hmm?"
Although Su Zimo had restrained his killing intent, Song Xuan's senses were extremely sharp. He seemed to have sensed something and turned around to take a look.
Seeing nothing, Song Xuan turned around and waved his hand gently. He scolded, "That's enough. Don't suck this peach spirit to death."
The Immortality Peach Tree seemed to understand Song Xuan's words. Although it was unwilling, it retracted its branches bit by bit.
Instantly, a few bloody holes appeared on Momo's body.
However, his physique was strong and his bloodline was extraordinary. Before long, the bloody holes had closed and stopped bleeding.
