The killing intent on Li Yunxiao's body stirred up tiny whirlpools that spread in all directions. The entire street seemed to be covered in frost.
"Ning Keyue's strength can be ranked among the top in the entire continent. Who has the ability to kill her?"
The cultivators were so frightened that they almost cried. They hurriedly said, "My Lord, my Lord, this has nothing to do with us. Please don't kill us. Our status is lowly, and this is all we know."
Li Yunxiao's eyes were as cold as a thousand-year-old ice. Seeing the people in front of him crying and begging for mercy, he hated that he could not kill them all. However, he also knew that these people's knowledge was limited. No matter how much he asked, he would not be able to get anything out of them.
His figure flashed and immediately disappeared from the street, turning into a beam of light as he flew towards Purple Cloud Peak.
During this period of time, there were undercurrents surging in Hong Yue City. There were more and more cultivators flying around, so they did not attract much attention.
Purple Cloud Peak was lush and filled with Spiritual Energy. It was not affected by the people in Hong Yue City, standing tall on the ground like before.
Li Yunxiao directly landed on the peak. There was a huge empty area. The grass, trees, sand, and stones were all destroyed. It was clear that there had been an intense battle.
The battlefield had already been cleaned up by the people of Hong Yue City. There were no corpses, only the bare peak and some shocking marks.
The entire peak had been split in half, and there was a deep crack that one could not see the bottom.
Li Yunxiao spread out his Spiritual Sense and did not leave any clues. However, his heart was abnormally heavy. The terrain here showed that there had been an extremely powerful expert fighting not long ago.
He took out the jade token that Ning Keyue had given him and held it in his hand. He wanted to crush it several times, but in the end, he endured it.
He turned into a beam of lightning again and flew towards Hong Yue City.
There seemed to be a faint glow in the pavilion below the Peach Blossom Cove.
Li Yunxiao's heart stirred, and he immediately flew down.
"Who?"
A man's voice filled with hostility came over.
Li Yunxiao was very disappointed. He recognized this voice; it was Ning Hangfeng's.
"Where is your sister?" Li Yunxiao asked directly.
Ning Hangfeng's figure was revealed, looking rather dispirited. He was taken aback when he saw Li Yunxiao, but then he sneered and said, "Why are you looking for my sister?"
Li Yunxiao said, "Your sister is dead?"
Ning Hangfeng's expression froze and then became extremely ferocious as he roared, "Shut up! Your sister is the one who died! "
An extremely ruthless aura spread out from his body, pressing straight towards Li Yunxiao, and smashing into his chest.
Li Yunxiao neither dodged nor gave way. He allowed the energy blast to land on his body and then disappear without a trace. He said, "In that case, Ning Keyue has only gone missing?"
Ning Hangfeng was shocked. His pupils shrunk as he exclaimed, "You, you've become Emperor Wu?!"
The shock he felt was indescribable, and it caused him to lose his composure.
When he fought with Runxiang in Red Moon City, Li Yunxiao was only a Six Star Martial Saint. Throughout the continent's history, when had he ever heard of such a monstrous speed of progress?
Ning Hangfeng regained his composure after a brief moment of absent-mindedness. He regained his previous dispirited look and said indifferently, "Your talent is indeed incomparable to others. Sir Castellan once said that you're the first rising star, and he was right. In time, I'm afraid no one in this world will be a match for you. "
Li Yunxiao said, "Don't talk nonsense with me. I'm only asking you, is your sister dead or missing?"
Ning Hangfeng was irritated, but he suppressed it and said coldly, "What does it have to do with you?"
Killing intent flashed in Li Yunxiao's eyes as he said coldly, "If you weren't her younger brother, I would have crippled you first!"
"Cripple me? Ha, haha! "
Ning Hangfeng laughed exaggeratedly and said, "Come on, cripple me! Let me see just how powerful you, the number one rising star of the younger generation, have! "
The two of them could not contain the irritation in their hearts. An oppressive emotion slowly burned in their blood, and killing intent gradually condensed in their eyes. The entire pavilion became dazed under these two pressures, as if it was going to collapse at any time.
Bang!
Li Yunxiao did not stand on ceremony. He leaped up, and the floor beneath his feet instantly shattered. He smashed a fist forward viciously.
Slap!
Ning Hangfeng's pupils constricted, and he directly grabbed with both hands. With extremely accurate speed, he placed his hands on Li Yunxiao's arms and twisted his body, wanting to throw Li Yunxiao out.
The two of them used pure physical strength and did not use any essence energy.
"En?"
Ning Hangfeng's heart suddenly trembled. When he grabbed Li Yunxiao's arm, it was as if he was grabbing a mountain. Even if he had a thousand catties of strength, he could not budge it in the slightest.
Right at this moment of shock, Li Yunxiao's fist force broke through his defense and directly smashed onto his face!
Bang!
Ning Hangfeng's entire body flew out, smashing through countless buildings and almost falling into the river. His face immediately swelled up.
"Ha, haha, good hit!"
Ning Hangfeng covered his face and laughed crazily. He said, "Hit people but not the face. You're really ruthless!"
Li Yunxiao said indifferently, "Anyway, you don't want your face anymore. What's the use of keeping it?"
Ning Hangfeng suddenly fell silent and said, "My sister is missing."
Li Yunxiao said, "I've been to the scene. There are limited people in the world who can kill her. Among these limited people, those who have the motive to kill her can be counted on one hand. Do you have a plan in mind?"
Ning Hangfeng's body trembled. Following that, his face revealed a mournful look as he said with a bitter smile, "I only know that this matter is related to Tang Qing. There are countless experts in the world. Any matter can involve the interests of wanting to kill my sister. How can it be concluded?"
Li Yunxiao's pupils constricted, and he said coldly, "This is also the second question I want to know. Why can Tang Qing enter Crimson Moon City and become the acting city lord? Just who is the person behind him?"
Ning Hangfeng's body started trembling. His face was full of grief, indignation, and despair. All of a sudden, he turned deathly pale. Gritting his teeth, he said, "I have no comment on this matter!"
Li Yunxiao's gaze turned slightly intent, and he said, "I'm not interested in this matter in the first place. But the person who supports Tang Qing is definitely the culprit who harmed your sister. Don't you want to find out whether your sister is dead or alive?"
"Haha, the person who supports Tang Qing is the person who harmed my sister?"
Ning Hangfeng suddenly burst into laughter. Tears even came out, but the laughter was incomparably painful.
That person who supported Tang Qing to take down Crimson Moon City was precisely the previous city lord, Ning Keyue, and his father!
Li Yunxiao said coldly, "Looks like you suffered a big enough shock. Since you're not willing to say, then let me go find out the truth myself!"
He turned around and turned into a bolt of lightning.
This matter did not just concern Ning Keyue, it also concerned Crimson Moon City. Since Jiang Churan died for him, he absolutely could not sit idly by and watch Crimson Moon City fall into trouble.
But with a power that the entire Crimson Moon City could not contend with, he also knew that it was hard to resist.
His heart felt like it was pressed by a boulder, making it somewhat hard for him to breathe.
He strolled on the streets of Crimson Moon City alone. The moon in the sky had already recovered to its bamboo white color, shining down coldly.
Suddenly, his expression changed slightly. His mind turned, and he looked in a direction.
Back then, in order to exchange for the Exploding Yuan Pill, he pawned the cold sword and ice frost, and agreed to let that old man crush the jade pendant to summon him after gathering all the materials. Just now, it was precisely that old man's jade pendant that sent a commotion. A direction coordinate was immediately sensed under Li Yunxiao's senses.
"It's actually not in Crimson Moon City?"
Li Yunxiao frowned and muttered to himself, "Based on the direction and distance, it should still be within the eastern region. I'll go to the city lord's manor to investigate first, then retrieve the cold sword and ice frost. "
After he made up his mind, he was just about to go to the city lord's manor when a fat figure suddenly appeared in front of him. It was Zhu Jingyi.
"Young Master Yun, is it really you?"
Zhu Jingyi's face was full of surprise. He hurriedly pulled him to the side and said, "Last time, I saw you leave the city with severe injuries. I was worried that you would not survive."
Li Yunxiao frowned and immediately understood. He had been seen leaving the city while he was unconscious. He asked, "How much do you know about what happened in Crimson Moon City?"
Zhu Jingyi's expression changed slightly. Then, he smiled and poked Yun Che's shoulder. He said, "I knew that you were definitely not a heartless person and would definitely return. That was why I had my brothers keep an eye on your whereabouts. As soon as I heard the report, I hurriedly looked everywhere for you. Do you know that Crimson Moon City is also looking for you?"
Li Yunxiao's heart skipped a beat. He said, "Crimson Moon City is looking for me? What do you mean by Crimson Moon City? "
Zhu Jingyi smiled bitterly and said, "Right now, Crimson Moon City is basically under Elder Tang Qing's words. Of course, it's the Four Extremes Sect's Tang Clan that is looking for you. It's very dangerous for you to appear rashly. Hurry up and come with me."
Li Yunxiao asked, "Where to?"
Zhu Jingyi said, "Where Miss Ruobing and Miss Ruomei are."
Li Yunxiao quickly followed Zhu Jingyi through a few streets and came to a residential building. There was an inconspicuous small courtyard in the building and they directly walked in.
This small courtyard was the gathering place of the Ice Cube Organization. It seemed to be empty now.
"Miss Ruomei, look who I've brought!" Zhu Jingyi shouted as he ran in.
Li Yunxiao followed behind. When he entered the house, he saw a group of women gathered together, seemingly discussing something. They all raised their heads.
"Li Yunxiao!"
A few exclamations sounded.
When Li Yunxiao looked over, his heart suddenly sank. He felt an extreme pressure on his chest.
Apart from Jiang Ruobing and her sister, Ruan Hongyu was also among them. They were all members of the Jiang Clan. Most of them were women, but there were also a few men.
Ruan Hongyu's entire body was a few times thinner. She looked up and said indifferently, "It's you?"
"Young Master Yun, you really didn't die!"
Jiang Ruobing squeezed out a rare smile. She stepped forward and said, "What's wrong? Are you unhappy to see us? Why is your face so gloomy?"
A graceful and charming woman behind her opened her mouth and said, "Sister, Big Brother Yunxiao must have something to do. Don't make a fuss."
That extremely charming woman was actually Jiang Ruomei. After the curse was cast, she had gone on a crazy diet. Finally, she had slimmed down and became the number one beauty among the crowd.
Ruan Hongyu said, "Now that the Four Extremes Sect seems to want to capture you, why did you return to Crimson Moon City?"
Zhu Jingyi hurriedly said, "Mistress, Young Master Yun is extremely righteous. He must have known that we were in trouble, so he came back to save us!"
