He had to get out of here and survive.
Just as Zhu Minglang was thinking about how to deal with this, Nan Lingsha took the initiative to reach out and gently held Zhu Minglang's hand.
Zhu Minglang was stunned.
In the next moment, Zhu Minglang also held her hand and whispered, "Don't be afraid. I can get you out of here."
Zhu Minglang took a deep breath again and stared at the mysterious person in the tiger skin coat. He was estimating whether he could injure this person with one strike before Jian Xing …
However, at this moment, Nan Lingsha used her other hand to gently pull off her veil.
"The murderer who killed God Liu?" Nan Lingsha used a cold voice with some dissatisfaction and doubt. "If I remember correctly, I was still on my way back to Shen Du when God Liu was killed. The entire Jinhui Army can testify for me …"
When Zhu Minglang heard this, he was stunned. However, he quickly reacted and exclaimed in his heart, "My sister-in-law is so smart!"
Cough cough!
Zhu Minglang was also an experienced actor who had been in Jianghu for many years.
He immediately got into the mood and said with a serious and impatient face, "Where did you get this fake news? I'm here with my wife to recuperate. If there was a murderer here who challenged the divine authority, the two of us would have already taken him down."
"Martial Saint?" Saint Master Li Song Yao looked at the woman who took off her veil in shock.
"Li Yunzi?" The Incense God was also stunned.
Although the artist they met was indeed wearing a veil, everyone in Shen Du, including Xuan Ge, had the habit of wearing a veil. Therefore, it was impossible to determine her identity based on the veil.
However, the woman who was with Zhu Minglang was none other than Li Yunzi, the Martial Saint who was wearing an ordinary set of beautiful clothes …
"Is there anyone else in the courtyard?" Saint Master Li Song Yao immediately reacted.
"Only one of my friends, Master Dragon Shepherd." Zhu Minglang called Fang Niannian out.
Fang Niannian performed a Kitchen Dragon Summoning on the spot, proving that she couldn't possibly be a Divine Painter.
The thousand soldiers of the Royal Divine Army who had descended from the sky were dumbfounded as well. Their leader even bowed towards Nan Lingsha in a hurry.
"The saint is here. We did not know and offended the Martial Saint. Please forgive us!" The commander of the Royal Divine Army knelt down.
The other soldiers of the Royal Divine Army naturally knew about the Martial Saint's current status in Xuan Ge, so they all knelt down and bowed.
"Li Yunzi, why are you here?" The Incense Deity felt that something was amiss and questioned.
"I came to find my husband after the meeting. Is there anything wrong with that?" Nan Lingsha asked.
"That's right. Do you think everyone is like you, a lonely woman wandering around?" Fang Niannian scolded angrily.
The Fragrant Deity glared fiercely at the sharp-tongued girl.
"Whose orders are you serving?" Nan Lingsha asked coldly. She was imitating Li Yunzi's arrogant tone.
Song Yao, the Incense Deity, the commander of the Royal Divine Army, and the mysterious man all fell silent.
They were not bold enough to say that they were serving God Xuan Ge.
"I- I believed in fake news and disturbed the Martial Saint's cultivation. I, Song Yao, apologize." In the end, Song Yao gritted his teeth and temporarily took the blame for God Xuan Ge.
"Really? I almost thought that my god was someone who would get rid of the donkey after it had outlived its usefulness …" said Nan Lingsha.
The Sacred Deity immediately became covered in cold sweat.
Li Yunzi had done a great service by repelling God Ming Meng's army and returning victorious.
The entire Xuan Ge Divine Capital naturally knew about Li Yunzi's fame as the war goddess. If news spread now that Xuan Ge had ordered the Royal Divine Army to surround Li Yunzi's residence …
Wouldn't that be telling the world that Xuan Ge was jealous of the Martial Saint's achievements and wanted to suppress a war goddess who had returned victorious?
"My god doesn't know. Please don't overthink it, Martial Saint. It was my mistake. It was my mistake." The Sacred Deity Song Yao walked forward and bowed deeply. He maintained a long bow as he apologized.
"Disperse. Don't cause unnecessary panic and misunderstandings," said Nan Lingsha.
"Yes, yes!" The Sacred Deity immediately shot a glance at the commander of the Royal Divine Army.
The commander of the Royal Divine Army was quite frightened as well. He led his army away from the courtyard in a hurry.
The golden wall of wind was dispelled as well. The ferocious pursuit receded like the tide.
Even though the Incense Deity was still rather confused, she knew that God Xuan Ge's reputation would be greatly affected if things got out of hand …
…
Within the courtyard, Zhu Minglang watched the Royal Divine Army leave. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief.
So close!
Something huge had almost happened.
Fortunately, his sister-in-law was smart!
However, there was still a huge problem.
If Li Yunzi was seen somewhere at this moment, the fact that Li Yunzi and Nan Lingsha were twins would be exposed. The trick would fall apart on its own!
…
The Martial Saint's estate was at the end of the White Elephant Mountain.
A woman in a sari with a gauze covering her face slowly made her way into the estate.
When the guard saw her, he was shocked at first before his eyes became filled with excitement and joy. Just when he was about to kneel down and greet her, the woman placed a white finger by her lips and shook her head.
The guard did not say anything even though he was confused. Instead, he stared at the woman's back in a rather infatuated manner.
The woman's steps were light and slow as she entered the windy corridor of the estate. She would stop to pick a flower at times, read the poem in the pavilion at times, and purposefully make a detour to a quiet path at times …
Servants, gardeners, servants, guards, and soldiers came and went in the Martial Saint's estate, but no one saw her along the way. They would always avoid her when she was picking flowers, admiring the pond, or making a detour. At most, they would only see her disappear around the corner or along the corridor.
The woman directly arrived at Li Yunzi's courtyard. It was much quieter than outside. The person guarding here was only the skinny girl who had always been by Li Yunzi's side.
"Where's your mistress?" The woman walked over and asked.
Zhi Rou was picking flowers. When she saw the woman suddenly appear, she was stunned.
God Xuan Ge!
Why was she here?
Why didn't anyone report her arrival?
"She … She went out," Zhi Rou answered nervously.
"On duty?"
"She … She went to see my master."
"Oh, I have something to discuss with her. When she comes back, tell her that I've been here," Xuan Ge said.
"Okay, see you off, God Xuan Ge." Zhi Rou then remembered to bow.
The woman turned and left.
When she walked out of the courtyard, she did not deliberately avoid the people in the estate anymore.
"I've been avoiding people along the way, but something went wrong at the end. She's not here?" Xuan Ge muttered to himself.
…
After Xuan Ge left, Zhi Rou brought the flower seeds back to the house.
When she entered the house, Zhi Rou was preparing to make tea with the flower seeds. She placed them in the small tea room where Li Yunzi was meditating.
"Water will do."
"Oh, okay." Zhi Rou immediately put away the flower seeds and replaced them with a cup of water.
Zhi Rou placed the cup in front of her and looked at her with confusion. She could not help but ask, "God Xuan Ge seems to have something important to talk to you about. Otherwise, he would not have come to the estate personally. Why did you suddenly tell me that you went out to see my master?"
"Xuan Ge knows that the person who killed God Liu is Lingsha. Something happened to my master and Lingsha."
"Ah? Fortunately, sister just woke up. It seems like the Ginseng Immortal Soup that my master sent is really good at nourishing the soul. I can count the number of times sister has woken up in the past three years, "Zhi Rou said.
"She's just resting and cultivating. It's nothing serious," Li Xinghua said.
"Since Lingsha and my master are in trouble, should we go and help them?" Zhi Rou said anxiously.
Xuan Ge was a seer. He always gave people the feeling that he could see through everything.
"We can't leave here. Xuan Ge has spies in the estate." Li Xinghua shook her head.
"Then what can we do?"
"Wait. No one can see me. There can only be one Li Yunzi in the Divine Capital," Li Xinghua said.
…
Back in the Sunset Mountain.
Zhu Minglang and Nan Lingsha had just avoided a crisis, but they were now faced with a rather troublesome matter.
Zhu Minglang did his best to remain calm as he looked at the woman with a headscarf who had appeared before them.
Nan Lingsha was clearly rather nervous as well. When Zhu Minglang held her hand, he could feel the warm sweat on her palm.
Nan Lingsha let go of Zhu Minglang and bowed slightly towards Xuan Ge, who had suddenly appeared.
"I heard from your maidservant that you were here, so I came looking for you. There's an urgent matter that I might need you to deal with personally. I've disturbed you. Please forgive me," said Xuan Ge.
"Please speak," said Nan Lingsha.
"What happened earlier?" Xuan Ge asked.
"It's nothing. Saint Li must have sensed that someone was sneaking around, so he brought the Royal Divine Army over. In the end, it was all a misunderstanding," Nan Lingsha said calmly.
"Saint Li is indeed a little too rash at times. He should learn from you and Qing Qian," said Xuan Ge.
"Let's not talk about such trivial matters. Has something major happened that requires you to come personally?" Nan Lingsha asked.
"Ming Meng Shen has already arrived in the Divine Capital. He's willing to negotiate, and one of his conditions is for you to come personally. Right now, he's in White Saint City with his Blade God Army, which is to the west of the Divine Capital. His Blade God Army is no weaker than our Royal Divine Army. There are over three thousand of them, and they follow him like a shadow, "said Xuan Ge.
In terms of strength, Hua Chou was number one in the entire Shenjiang, while Ming Meng Shen was number two.
Moreover, Ming Meng Shen was the only god who dared to insult Hua Chou.
Ming Meng Shen could be described as the true mad god of Tianshu. If he had absolute confidence, he would probably challenge Hua Chou personally.
There was only one way for Ming Meng Shen to negotiate with other gods — to start a war!
The news of Ming Meng Shen's arrival in the Divine Capital had just been spread recently.
Even if the Sparrow Wolf God had crawled out of his coffin to participate in the Sacred Assembly of Leaders, everyone would believe it. However, Ming Meng Shen's arrival was the most unbelievable!
