"Are you toying with us?"
Tian Yuan frowned. He suddenly had a bad feeling and asked, "Have you heard of this scripture?"
Everyone shook their heads.
Tian Yuan's expression changed drastically. "Isn't Tian Chou cultivating the Great Light Universal Illumination Scripture?"
The person from before said, "The City Lord's cultivation method is heavenly. He cultivates the Ghost Emperor's Art of Longevity."
Tian Yuan's face instantly turned pale. However, he suddenly thought, 'Did Tian Chou change the name of the Great Light Universal Illumination Scripture?' That was possible. That way, no one would be able to find out. He immediately shouted, "Which one of you knows the Ghost Emperor's Art of Longevity?"
Many people looked at a Ghost Emperor with a delicate face. He was only a peak four-star Ghost Emperor.
That Ghost Emperor's face turned deathly pale, and he hurriedly retreated in fear. However, Tian Yuan flashed and appeared in front of him. He grabbed his throat and said coldly, "What is the Ghost Emperor's Secret Art of Longevity like? What kind of avatar will there be after cultivating it? "
This was Tian Chou's other son. Tian Chou had a total of three sons. One died in battle, one was killed by Tian Yuan, and this was the last one.
"The Ghost Emperor's Art of Longevity exists without defense, it's formed in an instant. Mixing with the wind, it's formed in a hundred days …"
The kid trembled in fear and hurriedly recited the technique's incantation.
"Boom!"
His head was crushed by Tian Yuan's aura.
Tian Yuan had no patience to listen to him. After killing him, he pulled out the kid's soul and read his memories.
The kid's soul was in extreme pain. It soon became sluggish and was digested bit by bit.
After reading his memories, Tian Yuan's body instantly turned cold.
He immediately understood that he had fallen into a trap.
The anger in his heart had accumulated to the extreme. His entire head was red with anger. Just as he was about to roar and find Yang Qingxuan and Onishi to skin them alive, pull out their tendons, and refine their souls, an extremely fierce aura suddenly came from below, along with a shocking killing intent. Who dares to cause trouble in my residence and kill my subordinates? Ah, my son! "
"Ah! — "
A heart-wrenching voice came from the ruins of the mansion. Everyone who heard it felt their hair stand on end. However, to the people of Ghost Fire Holy City, it was no different from a savior. They were all overjoyed. "The City Lord has come out of seclusion. We are saved!"
Onishi hid in a corner and looked in the direction of the voice expressionlessly. At this moment, his heart was incomparably calm.
Yang Qingxuan also stopped killing and stood quietly behind him.
They were almost done killing. Now, the two of them were waiting for an opportunity to kill Tian Chou together.
"Boom!"
A powerful aura soared into the sky from the ruins, forming a boundless field of energy that enveloped an area of several hundred kilometres, covering almost a third of the city.
Everyone felt the heart-palpitating pressure and was aghast. "Is this the power of a mid-tier 9-star Ghost Emperor? It's so scary and makes me yearn for it! "
Countless ghostly cultivators were silent as they secretly made up their minds, "One day, I will also become a Nine-Star Ghost Emperor!"
Tian Yuan was instantly targeted. His face was like a frosted eggplant, uglier than a pig's liver.
A tall and sturdy figure clad in green armor slowly walked out of the ruins. His eyes were bloodshot as he stared at him.
Tian Yuan's heart thumped violently. He knew he was in big trouble. He temporarily suppressed the anger in his heart and thought about how to solve the problem in front of him first to save his life.
"Sir, City Lord!"
An 8-star Ghost Emperor hurriedly went forward as if he had seen his savior. He pointed at Tian Yuan and cried, "This person, it's this person who came to provoke us for no reason. He killed Steward Lei Ming, three young masters, and …"
He poured out his heart's content and cried bitterly.
Tian Chou did not say a word. He just stared at Tian Yuan with bloodshot eyes and said coldly, "Who are you? What's going on here? "
Tian Yuan's heart was extremely bitter. He said with a long face, "If I say this is all a misunderstanding, will you believe me?"
Tian Chou said, "I will."
Tian Yuan was stunned. He hurriedly said, "It really is a misunderstanding. I was schemed against by someone …"
Then, he told the whole story in full detail.
Never in his wildest dreams would he have thought that Tian Chou would be able to calmly listen to him speak in such an angry situation.
His vigilance and fear towards Tian Chou had risen to a new height. A person with such a temperament was too scary just thinking about it.
Tian Chou said, "Where are those two people?"
Tian Yuan said, "They should be in this hundred miles of space. I just sensed and did not find any trace of them. They might have escaped …" His voice became softer.
Tian Chou said, "What you mean is, the two people who might have escaped and could never be found tricked you to come here and kill my three sons and many subordinates."
Tian Yuan said bitterly, "It sounds absurd but it is so."
Tian Chou nodded, "Wait until I summon the Innate Ghost to search your soul. Everything will be clear."
Tian Yuan's face changed drastically. He said in shock and anger, "If you and I fight, we will fall into their trap."
The eight-star Ghost Emperor kneeling in front of Tian Chou cried, "Lord, you must kill this man and avenge the three young masters and all the dead!"
Tian Chou said calmly, "Don't worry, I will kill him and avenge everyone. But I am very curious. Why are my three sons and Lei Ming dead but you all are still alive?"
The eight-star Ghost Emperor's heart shook. He said with a trembling voice, "This, this …."
Tian Chou said, "I hired you as guards, paid you a salary and provided you with a place to cultivate. I hoped that when the City Lord's Mansion was in danger, you would come out to fight and protect my mansion, my family, and my steward. But now, my mansion, my family, and my steward are all dead. But you, who took my salary, are all still alive. I am very curious and puzzled about this. "
The Eight-star Ghost Emperor was trembling all over. The rest of the people were also panic-stricken. In the huge energy field that covered hundreds of miles, the killing intent was rising exponentially.
Yang Qingxuan and Onishi both felt the terror of this energy field, and they both showed a solemn expression.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Seems like this will be a tough battle."
Onishi's eyes flashed and he said coldly, "I was afraid that he would die in an instant and I wouldn't be able to vent my anger. A battle to the death is exactly what I want!"
In the sky, the eight-star Ghost Emperor said desperately, "Lord, please forgive us. We did not do our job well. We will fight to the death and protect the Ghost Fire Saint City!"
The surrounding guards also shouted, "We will fight to the death and protect the Saint City!", "We will fight to the death and protect the Saint City!"
Their voices grew louder and louder.
The morale was high and they were all expressing their loyalty.
Tian Chou signaled for silence and the entire place fell silent. Tian Chou said, "I have seen your loyalty and ability. I think there is no need for you to stay in the Saint City anymore. Follow my son and Steward Lei Ming."
