"What's going on, why won't you let us go?"
"That's right, can't we stop looking?"
"I want to leave, I want to go home."
The adventurers noticed that the situation was not right and wanted to leave. However, the patrolling guards and reinforcements of the city guards surrounded them layer by layer. Sea Cutter City even sent out a few large ships to completely seal off this part of the sea. Because the captain had already passed on the order of the city lord, to not let any insider leave. Even if they were not killed, they had to erase this part of their memories from their minds.
The reason why the city lord took this matter so seriously was because Du Feng's sword qi had the same feeling as the venerable Sword Emperor. If the Sword Emperor had a new successor, then this matter would be very serious. Because the Sword Emperor had been missing for over a thousand years, no one knew where he went. If anyone knew, it would definitely be his disciple, Kenji. But Kenji had never mentioned anything about his master. And no one dared to interrogate him.
If the Sword Emperor had taken in a new disciple, it meant that he was still alive. Then the news about him ascending to the Ascension Realm was most likely false. If even the venerable Sword Emperor failed to ascend, then who else in the entire War God Continent could succeed? Or rather, the gate to the Ascension Realm from this world had already closed.
Regarding ascension to the Ascension Realm, the higher one's status, the more concerned they were. Sea Cutter City's city lord was no exception. Interestingly, because the matter of the sword qi was too serious, the city lord's people neglected to investigate the Heaven Descending Treasure, so naturally they did not know about the White Bone Banner.
"Huuu … …"
Du Feng flew above the clouds for a while, leaving the Hybrid Sea for a distance before descending. He let out a long sigh, luckily he left in time. If he did not ascend to the sky at that time, he would have already been surrounded. The Netherworld Eyes he left in the Hybrid Sea observed the city lord's decision to seal off the sea. Not only the surface of the sea, but many beast cultivators who were adept at water also dove into the sea, probably to prevent people from escaping from below.
Just now when Du Feng was flying above the clouds, it was not without danger. He had encountered a huge seabird, and it was at the peak of the eighth level. Perhaps it was because she despised his entire body of bones, without any shameful flesh. Therefore, after taking a glance, it flew away from the side, unexpectedly not harming Du Feng.
Hehe, after getting ashore, Du Feng still felt it was a little funny. The porcelain bone armor's disguise was really good. If it weren't for the bones, he might have already been in the big seabird's stomach. Sometimes, a sophisticated disguise like restraining one's aura or even hiding one's body was not as good as the most intuitive thing.
However, he couldn't hide his aura or hide his figure. He couldn't deceive the peak-level-8 seabird. However, because of the tasteless bones on its body, it actually left in disappointment.
"Master, you must not take out the White Bone Banner in the city."
Zhuang Pipi removed the porcelain bone armor and allowed the white bone banner to return to its original form. He instructed Du Feng to quickly disguise himself and not expose himself in front of others. Especially within the range of the demon cultivator's city, even if there was no one around, he couldn't casually take it out. This was because some experts could sense the White Bone Banner's aura from far away and thus lock onto Du Feng's position.
Moreover, there were many surveillance locations within the city. Perhaps one might think that there was no one around, but in fact, one had already been monitored by the people from the city lord's residence.
"Don't worry, I won't act rashly."
Du Feng was increasingly satisfied with this newly recruited battle general. He was strong, experienced, and knew a lot of things. Moreover, he was especially fast in dealing with urgent matters.
"Sigh, if I had known, I wouldn't have dragged my uncle into this."
Zhuang Yingying had framed Zhuang Pipi to frame him so that he wouldn't have a chance to fight for power with his father. However, she didn't expect that after Zhuang Pipi entered the White Bone Banner, he would steal all the limelight from her.
"Don't say that, we are all serving Master."
In fact, all the battle generals who had been captured by the White Bone Banner knew that without Du Feng's permission, they would never be able to leave. However, they still felt somewhat indignant about being enslaved by others. For example, Sun Xingyi and the female Ghost Emperor of the Locust Tree Spirit. They clearly knew that they couldn't resist Du Feng, but they still didn't cooperate. They often played tricks and didn't put in their best effort.
Zhuang Pipi was different. It was precisely because he was the descendant of a ghostly cultivator clan and a male ghostly cultivator who had cultivated the Heavenly Demon Body that he had a better understanding of the White Bone Banner. If he wanted to regain his freedom and make a name for himself, there was only one way, and that was to upgrade the White Bone Banner to a Demonic Divine Weapon and successfully become a Demonic God.
Therefore, his goal was very clear. Once he entered the White Bone Banner, he began to wholeheartedly assist Du Feng. Those sneaky actions were actually just a waste of time. If Master died, they definitely wouldn't be able to survive. If Master gave up on nurturing the White Bone Banner, they would also not have a chance to make a name for themselves.
If he wanted Du Feng not to give up on the White Bone Banner, he had to bring out its greatest value. He had to let Master know that he was indeed useful. Only then would he continue to nurture him.
"Yes, Uncle's words make sense."
After listening to Zhuang Pipi's explanation, Zhuang Yingying couldn't help but nod. She could be considered to be more supportive of Du Feng, but she didn't put in as much effort as Zhuang Pipi. As for the other battle generals, after hearing this, they all had their own thoughts. Only the three Faceless Ghost Emperors didn't have their own consciousness, so they basically didn't understand anything.
"Brother Du, Brother Du …"
Du Feng was just about to discuss the Demonic Ruler with Zhuang Pipi when he suddenly heard Song Wanshan's soul speak. She was now one of the battle generals in the White Bone Banner, so Du Feng could hear her muttering.
"Sister-in-law, do you remember me?"
"Li Jun, how is Li Jun?"
In theory, people who had their memories taken away basically couldn't remember anything. However, he didn't expect Song Wanshan to still be able to call out Brother Du. Since she could call out Brother Du, perhaps she still remembered Li Jun.
"Li Jun, Li Jun, he …"
When Song Wanshan said this, she started to cry. She slowly told the truth. Sure enough, Li Jun was also captured, and his hands and feet were chopped off. Leaving him alive seemed to be to bring him to the Northern Continent for some secret experiment. She vaguely heard that it had something to do with beastmen.
