Tall trees had always been planted on both sides of the official road, but the sunlight was always mischievous. Even with the cover of the leaves, the sunlight would still jump back and forth on the road. From time to time, it would even jump onto people's faces.
As there were only two days left until they reached the sect, Yang Li simply took off his mask and showed his true face. The sunlight shone on his face, but it gave him a warm feeling. It had been too long since Yang Li's face had felt the warmth of the sun.
Yang Li and Jiang Yuan hurried on the road for ten days before they reached the vicinity of Mist City. The city gate was not far away.
Under the illumination of the sun, the guards of Mist City seemed to be lazing around, checking the identity of the passersby from time to time.
The difference between cultivators and mortals was very obvious. These guards were also cultivators at the fourth or fifth level of the Qi Condensation Stage, so they could naturally feel that Yang Li and Jiang Yuan were not mortals. When the two of them walked through the city gate, the guards became extremely respectful, and even their attitude was much better.
They must have sensed that the two of them were a great threat to him and wanted to leave a good impression. After all, even the worst sect disciples had a better life than soldiers.
However, when Yang Li was about to enter the city, he saw a soldier looking at him with a thoughtful and doubtful gaze. Yang Li had an idea, but he pretended to be nonchalant and entered the city.
Seeing that Yang Li and Jiang Yuan had completely disappeared into the crowd, the guard rubbed his face, and an extremely anxious expression appeared on his face. He asked for leave from the team leader and said, "Team leader, my childhood friend, Er Hu, just sent me a message saying that my mother is sick. He wants me to quickly go home and take a look."
The team leader glanced at him and realized that the anxiety on his face did not seem to be fake. He nodded and said, "Alright, then go. If there's nothing else, come back early."
The guard hurriedly used his movement technique and dashed into the city. The anxiety on his face also changed into a calm expression after he left the crowd's sight, but his eyes revealed an unconcealable joy.
Not long after, the guard arrived at an inn. He walked up to the third floor and looked left and right. After confirming that there was no one around, he knocked on one of the doors and said in a low voice, "Mister Yi, it's me, Wei Liu."
"Come in."
A low voice came from the other side of the door, accompanied by the creaking sound of the door opening.
After looking left and right again and confirming that no one was watching him, the guard hurriedly entered the door.
In the room was a middle-aged man who was sitting cross-legged and cultivating. He was wearing a black and loose robe, which made him look extremely skinny and small. As the guards entered the room, the middle-aged man opened his eyes, which emitted a sharp light.
Seeing this person, the guard immediately bowed slightly and lowered his head, looking like a servant. He did not dare to look directly into the other party's eyes and said in a low voice, "Mister Yi, I found traces of Yang Li! Yang Li just came in from the city gate, I think he will return to the sect in a while. "
When Mister Yi heard his words, he said in a low voice, "Alright, I understand. You did well. Go, someone will send your reward to your home."
When the guard heard this, he was instantly overjoyed. His originally slightly bent body bent even more and he bowed deeply. The guard raised his head and said, "Thank you, Mister Yi. I will take my leave first." When he saw Mister Yi wave his hand, the guard lowered his head and left.
Mister Yi then closed his eyes and released his divine senses, wanting to find traces of Yang Li. What he found interesting was that Yang Li was actually downstairs of the inn.
After thinking for a while, Mister Yi understood why Yang Li was here. The corner of his lips curled into a mocking smile as he looked at the guard who had just walked out of the door and thought to himself, "I just asked you to observe a person and you were discovered. What a piece of trash! It seems like I can save your reward. "
When Yang Li was at the city gate, he had already noticed the guard's strange behavior. After he disappeared from the city gate with Jiang Yuan, the two of them immediately changed into masks and followed this guard. When he saw the guard enter the door, Yang Li took off his mask.
His brows furrowed slightly while his eyes were filled with contemplation. He thought to himself, The ones who have enmity with my original appearance are only the Yi Clan and Wan Sheng. If Wan Sheng wants to kill me, he will definitely ask the sect disciples to pay attention to me. He wouldn't have to stay in the inn himself.
"It seems like the person upstairs is from the Yi Clan." After thinking it through, Yang Li took a glance at the door on the third floor and smiled. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, he realized that the door on the third floor had opened, and the guard retreated from inside with his head lowered.
After the guard came out, he guiltily looked around and looked downstairs. Just as he looked downstairs, he saw Yang Li's smile. His body stiffened, and a sense of fear spread from the bottom of his heart. A smile that was uglier than crying appeared on his face, and his legs unconsciously trembled.
"Why is Yang Li here? He wasn't here when I came. What should I do? What should I do now? "The guard was extremely flustered and even had the impulse to turn around and knock on Mister Yi's door.
When Yang Li saw the guard's state, he smiled and hooked his finger at the guard, asking him to follow him down the stairs.
When the guard saw Yang Li hooking his finger, he understood that Yang Li was asking him to follow him, and the fear in his heart instantly intensified. Yang Li's smile, which looked extremely warm and clean to outsiders, was even scarier than the devil in the guard's eyes. However, he didn't dare to not follow. His feet shuffled step by step, and he was even slower than an adult woman from a certain country who had her feet bound.
The smile that was originally hanging on Yang Li's face immediately vanished when he saw the guard's actions. His face revealed an expression of disgust. Originally, he was still benevolent and thought that the guard had no choice but to betray him. But from the guard's expression, it was obvious that he wasn't being coerced.
"Trash! It's fine if you betrayed this Young Master, but you can't even take responsibility for your actions. What's the use of keeping you around?! "Yang Li thought in his heart, and the disgust on his face intensified.
"Jiang Yuan, go and capture him for me! Dilly-Dallying is really wasting my time. "Yang Li said coldly to Jiang Yuan.
When Jiang Yuan heard this, he suddenly became excited. He used his movement technique and rushed to the third floor. He grabbed the guard who was shivering like a sieve and brought him downstairs.
Because it was currently morning, there weren't many people in the inn. Only a few guests looked at Jiang Yuan with envy and thought to themselves, "This is a cultivator, jumping up three floors in one go. I'm really envious."
Seeing that Jiang Yuan had captured the guard, Yang Li directly turned around and left the inn. Jiang Yuan hurriedly followed with the guard. After finding an extremely remote alley with few people, Yang Li stopped, and Jiang Yuan directly threw the guard into the alley.
"Tell me, who were you reporting to?" Yang Li squinted his eyes slightly and emitted a murderous intent. His icy cold eyes made the guard's body shiver even more violently.
A foul smell came along, and the guard was actually frightened to the point of urinating and defecating. Yang Li frowned and used his spirit force to isolate the smell. His disgust grew even stronger.
"Yang Li … Young Master Yang Li, it was Mister Yi who forced me. I didn't do it willingly!" The guard explained with a trembling voice, hoping that Yang Li would spare his life. He even gave up on Mister Yi.
"Trash."
After getting the answer he wanted, Yang Li immediately shot out his spirit force and incinerated the guard into ashes. He then turned around and walked out.
I might not know what cultivation realm a member of the Yi Clan is at, but you better not come and provoke me. Yang Li's eyes were filled with viciousness as he thought in his heart.
At this moment, a voice transmission suddenly entered Yang Li's ears. It actually escaped Mister Yi's surveillance. After Yang Li heard it, his expression didn't change as he nodded subtly.
Then, he brought Jiang Yuan and started to wander around the city. Mister Yi, who had been observing the two of them with his divine senses, let out a disdainful smile and thought to himself, "No matter how we wander around, we will still die. What a joke."
It was only in the evening when the two of them walked out of the city gates. Seeing that the two of them had walked out of the city gates, Mister Yi stood up and swiftly chased after them.
After Yang Li and Jiang Yuan left the city, they walked slowly towards the direction of the sect. It was as if the guard was reporting to the Yi Clan and wasn't giving them any pressure.
When Mister Yi saw the two of them acting like this, he didn't feel anxious or anxious. When the two of them were a distance away from the city and were only a few miles away from the sect gates, Mister Yi couldn't wait any longer and appeared in front of them.
"Yang Li, your guts are even bigger than your reputation." Mister Yi straightened his back and smiled as he looked toward Yang Li. His eyes were overflowing with coldness and ridicule.
When Yang Li saw the black-robed man that suddenly appeared in front of him, he knew that this was a member of the Yi Clan. His body tensed up slightly as if he was facing a formidable enemy. His eyes were filled with seriousness as he said, "Yi Clan?"
When Jiang Yuan saw Mister Yi appear, he immediately raised his right hand and held onto the saber on his back. His eyes were sharp as he observed Mister Yi's movements and looked like he was ready to make a move at any moment. However, be it Yang Li or Jiang Yuan — although their eyes were sharp and serious, they didn't have any fear. Instead, there was a hint of ridicule in the depths of their eyes.
"En, you are rather smart. I am Yi Nan from the Yi Clan. I am here on Young Lady Yixue's orders to bring you back to the Yi Clan to receive your punishment." When he mentioned Yixue, Yi Nan's eyes were filled with adoration and respect. He even straightened his back a little, and his tone became extremely serious. It was as if Yixue's orders were his greatest honor.
"I really want to know, why did you only make a move now?" Seeing Yi Nan like this, although Yang Li's eyes were still extremely serious, there was a flash of ridicule and pity in the depths of his eyes. He thought in his heart, "How pitiful. You are about to die, but you are still trying your best."
When Yi Nan heard Yang Li's words, he looked at him with interest and said, "Don't you feel that it's very comfortable to capture someone after they see a glimmer of hope? The look of despair on their faces when they collapse?"
"En?" When Yang Li heard his words, he frowned and said in a cold voice, "You are really a pervert."
"Hahaha …" When Yi Nan heard Yang Li's words, he let out a maniacal laugh. The spirit force around his body started to fluctuate violently. His Soul Controlling Realm eighth-stage cultivation was fully displayed, giving Yang Li and Yi Nan immense pressure. He said, "Pervert? Haha, I like your praise for me, but I still cannot let you off. Cripple your own cultivation and come with me. If Young Lady Yixue is in a good mood, she might even spare your life. "
"Yi Nan, do you know what kind of people are the most ridiculous?" Yang Li's tensed body suddenly relaxed, and his serious expression became relaxed. He looked at Yi Nan with a gaze full of pity and sympathy.
"En?" Yi Nan realized that the two of them were behaving strangely and had a bad premonition. He said in a serious tone, "I have no interest in talking nonsense with you. Since you are not willing to do it yourself, then let me capture you!"
When he finished speaking, Yi Nan's spirit force gushed out and grabbed towards Yang Li and Yi Nan. Although he did not use any spirit techniques, the boundless spirit force still made it difficult for them to breathe.
Yang Li and Yi Nan remained motionless. Just as Yi Nan's spirit technique was about to grab them, a spirit force light screen appeared in front of Yi Nan along with a powerful voice.
