When the black-robed figure of the Asura Prefecture King appeared, Long Yu told Huo Yuanbai and Ren Pingfan everything that had happened outside.
"The Prefecture King is here?"
Huo Yuanbai's face was filled with excitement. "If that's the case, we won't have to worry about our lives anymore."
"There's also a woman in a silver dress with a Silver Mirror Combat Weapon. Who is she?"
Long Yu asked curiously.
"One of the Prefecture King's concubines."
Huo Yuanbai explained, "Her name is Yin Jing, and the Silver Mirror Combat Weapon is a great desolate-level combat weapon passed down from her ancestors. It can reflect the power of most Divine Runes and create a Mirror Clone."
"Mirror Clone?"
Long Yu frowned. The name sounded familiar.
"Do you know that our Asura Prefecture has a general election every twenty years?"
Huo Yuanbai asked with a smile.
"That's right."
Long Yu nodded his head. Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind and he asked, "I heard that the second test of the selection is to deal with a mirror image of the same level as you. Only by defeating it will you be considered to have passed. This mirror image clone was created by the silver mirror, right?"
"That's right."
Huo Yuanbai nodded with a smile. "That's right. With Yin Jing and the Asura Prefecture King together, the Ghost Evil Prefecture King won't be able to deal with us."
"Does that mean that Yin Jing is Princess Shu Chan's mother?"
Long Yu asked uncertainly.
He remembered that when Princess Shu Chan had introduced the Mirror Image Avatar, she had said that the Mirror Image Avatar had been created by one of her father's subordinates. Now, it seemed that the person who had created the Mirror Image Avatar was not a subordinate of the Asura Duke, but one of his concubines.
"That's not it."
Huo Yuanbai shook his head. "Princess is the Prefecture King's only descendant. Her mother passed away more than ten years ago. This Yin Jing was originally the Prefecture King's subordinate, and later became one of his concubines."
Long Yu thought to himself, no wonder Shu Chan said that Silver Mirror is her father's subordinate. It seems that Shu Chan doesn't have a good impression of Silver Mirror.
When Long Yu figured out the identity of the person outside, he carefully observed the battle of the three King Path Secret Realm experts outside.
Unfortunately, when the Guixie Prefecture King saw the Yin Mirror and the Asura Prefecture King together, he abandoned the thousands of cultivators around him and fled towards the depths of the Guixie Prefecture. He didn't even care about the Dragon Bone Pagoda.
Duke Gui Xie was still laughing on the surface, but in reality, his heart was filled with fear. After all, it was one against two, and his chances of winning were slim!
Under such circumstances, the Duke of Ghost Evil would naturally prioritize his own life. He could only temporarily forget about the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower.
"Chase."
The Asura Prefecture King and Yin Mirror, two powerful martial cultivators, chased after the Ghost Evil Prefecture King. Soon, they disappeared from Long Yu's sight.
"We can't see, but we're free now."
Long Yu heaved a sigh of relief.
Although he was unable to witness the battle between the Emperor Road Secret Grounds experts, after the Ghost Evil Monarch left, no one could stop Long Yu from leaving!
He activated the Ancient Dragon Skeleton Tower and circled around the area where the Great Formation of Evil and Ghost and Destruction was located, before flying in the direction of the Shura Prefecture.
The thousands of cultivators from the Ghost Evil County all had gloomy auras. When they saw this, they all fled towards the dense forest below. When the Asura County King and Yin Jing appeared, they knew that the situation was not good.
Now that the Guixie Prefecture King had fled, how could they dare to stay?
Not long after, the thousands of cultivators from the Ghost Evil County disappeared from the sky. All of them hid in the forest and mountains below. They must be escaping towards the Ghost Evil County's territory.
Long Yu relayed the news to Huo Yuanbai. Huo Yuanbai said, "If that's the case, let's leave this ancient pagoda first. Young Dragon, store the ancient pagoda. We'll go back and wait for the King and the others to return."
Long Yu nodded and stored the Dragon Bone Pagoda.
Without the threat of the King Path Secret Realm experts, there was no need for them to hide in the Dragon Bone Pagoda. After all, Long Yu's speed with the Dragon Bone Pagoda was not fast.
Moreover, with Huo Yuanbai around, no one could threaten them apart from the King Path Secret Realm experts.
After Long Yu came out, he took out the Asura Spirit Boat and handed it to Huo Yuanbai to control.
As a Heaven Rank High Rank Combat Weapon, Long Yu could naturally control the Asura Spirit Boat as well, but the speed was not that great.
After handing the Asura Spirit Boat to Huo Yuanbai, its speed was more than twice as fast as when Ren Pingfan was controlling it. As expected of a Seven Daos Divine Realm expert, the Xuan Qi in his body was extremely dense.
The Asura Spirit Boat carried the three of them to a camp at the border of the Asura Prefecture and stopped. This camp was where Ren Pingfan had been waiting for news from Long Yu.
After handing the Asura Spirit Boat to Long Yu, the three of them descended towards the camp.
"Let's wait here for the Regional King and Silver Mirror to return."
Huo Yuanbai said and was the first to land.
However, the atmosphere in the army camp was not quite right at this moment. Huo Yuanbai, the general of the entire Nightmare Army, had arrived, but no one dared to welcome him. They all stayed far away from him and looked at him doubtfully.
"What's going on?"
Huo Yuanbai frowned and asked the nearest Martial Cultivator.
"This … General Huo, aren't you …"
The Martial Cultivator jumped in fright and was about to say something when he was interrupted by a burst of laughter from the side.
"Hahaha, Huo Yuanbai. Impressive, impressive. You managed to escape in such a situation!"
The laughter obviously came from a familiar person — Deputy General Zou Li of the Nightmare Legion!
Following this laughter, the three of them saw Deputy General Zou Li leading a group of Nightmare Legion troops from the side. They surrounded the three of them with covetous eyes.
"General Huo, you betrayed Asura Prefecture and caused the deaths of more than 20,000 Nightmare Legion troops. How dare you come back to the camp?"
Deputy General Zou Li snorted as he spoke. "The Regional King has already appeared, but you went to deal with the Regional King Gui Xie first. What's your motive for returning to the camp? "
"Ridiculous."
Huo Yuanbai looked at Deputy General Zou Li and sneered.
He was so angry at Deputy General Zou Li that he did not know what to say. Betrayed Asura Prefecture and caused the deaths of more than 20,000 Nightmare Legion troops?
These things were obviously done by Deputy General Zou Li!
But now, Deputy General Zou Li was pointing the spearhead at Huo Yuanbai and trying to frame him.
"Soldiers, Huo Yuanbai betrayed Asura Prefecture and sided with Gui Xie County. The evidence is conclusive and more than 20,000 of his comrades were killed by him. Since we've found him, we can't let him go so easily. We must capture him and wait for the Regional King's return!"
Deputy General Zou Li's face was full of righteousness, but his eyes were as sinister as a fox's, "Today, I took the liberty of inviting two experts from Lieyang County to arrest Huo Yuanbai!"
Two middle-aged men in fiery-red robes walked out from behind Zou Li, one on the left and one on the right. They looked at Huo Yuanbai with extremely unfriendly expressions.
"Experts from Lieyang Prefecture."
Huo Yuanbai's expression changed slightly. These two middle-aged men in fiery-red robes were actually experts from Lieyang County, a county adjacent to Shura County. Each of them was a seven path divine-realm expert.
Moreover, Huo Yuanbai had a rough idea of their names. After all, in each prefecture, seven divine-realm martial cultivators were considered extremely powerful.
"Yang Guan, Yang Kong, you two are actually on the same side as the Zou Family."
Huo Yuanbai said in a low voice.
Yang Guan and Yang Kong were the two middle-aged men in fiery-red robes from the neighboring Lieyang Prefecture!
"Heh, our Yang Family and the Zou Family are old friends."
The older of the two middle-aged men said matter-of-factly, "Moreover, our Lieyang Prefecture has a good relationship with your county. Now that you're a general of the Nightmare Legion, you've betrayed Asura Prefecture and sided with Gui Xie County … I have to say, we must capture you today!"
Long Yu stood beside Huo Yuanbai and listened to the two guys distorting the truth while the Nightmare Legion experts seemed to believe them. He couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Fatty Ren Pingfan also had the same thought.
"You can't use such a clumsy method to frame others, right?"
Fatty said casually, "Moreover, Senior Shura Prefecture will naturally be managed by the Shura Prefecture King. Why are you here?"
"Who do you think you are?"
Yang Guan and Yang Kong scolded angrily when they heard Fatty Ren Pingfan's words. "You're just a junior. How dare you say such things. You're courting death."
"Yo, you people from Lieyang Prefecture dare to act so presumptuously in our Shura Prefecture? Do you think Senior Shura Prefecture King will let you off if he finds out?"
Fatty wasn't afraid at all. Although there was a huge gap between their martial realms, he knew that Long Yu had the Ancient Dragon Bone Tower!
The Ancient Dragon Bone Tower was something that even the Duke of Ghost Evil could not break through, let alone these two seven Divinity realm fellas.
"Don't waste your breath on them. Otherwise, they'll have a chance to escape. Let's do it."
Deputy General Zou Li snorted coldly and nodded at Yang Kong and Yang Guan.
He had initiated this series of plans and framed Huo Yuanbai for the crime of betraying Shura Prefecture and killing more than 20,000 people from the Nightmare Legion. Of course, it wouldn't be that simple.
Yang Kong and Yang Guan, who came from the neighboring Lieyang Prefecture, were both Seven Divine Realm experts. All they had to do now was capture Huo Yuanbai as an excuse and 'accidentally' kill him. Then, even if the Shura Prefecture King pursued the matter, he wouldn't be able to do anything to them!
Zou Li or the Zou family alone wouldn't dare to do such a thing.
