In the dilapidated wine shop.
Once the cooldown was over, Qiao Rui immediately released the Spirit of the Falcon and flew into the sky to scout the enemy situation in Jiangdu City.
During the scouting, Qiao Rui's expression became more and more strange.
"There are barely any demon soldiers on the streets of Jiangdu City. I feel like the Yuwen Huaji brothers in the Wanxiang Palace didn't send out any patrols."
Bai Xiaowen furrowed his brows. This situation was indeed somewhat unexpected.
After thinking for a while, Bai Xiaowen said, "Let the Spirit of the Falcon fly in the direction of the Wanxiang Palace and see if the demon army stationed there is still there."
Qiao Rui agreed.
"Everyone should have rested enough, right?" Bai Xiaowen stood up.
Li Shuyi said, "Except for some equipment skills with a cooldown of 24 hours, the other big moves are ready."
"Let's not wait any longer. The situation might have changed. Let's go directly to the Wanxiang Palace! "Bai Xiaowen said.
The White Phoenix team was very efficient. After Bai Xiaowen gave the order, the other four immediately stood up without any hesitation.
Empress Xiao led the two ghost palace maids. Yang Guang's thin wooden coffin floated behind her and moved forward. As a ghost, she relied on floating to walk. Her speed was quite fast, comparable to that of an elite wolf.
Halfway through the journey, Qiao Rui's Spirit of the Falcon received new information. She opened her eyes in surprise and said,
"The sentries of the Wanxiang Palace are all gone! Although I can't see the situation in the palace, the courtyard is in chaos. It's completely different from the first time I went there! It seems like all the valuable things have been swept away. "
"Rebels!" Yang Guang opened the coffin and stood up.
"…"
Before he could complain about why demons were still interested in gold, silver and jewelry, Bai Xiaowen sighed, "It seems that I overestimated Brother Yuwen. These two are mediocre! They're even worse than Sima Dekan. They don't even have the courage to stay and fight. "
Hearing Bai Xiaowen's words, Qiao Rui said, "You think Brother Yuwen has escaped?"
Bai Xiaowen exhaled and said, "That's right. The treasured land where Jiang Capital is located is an 'open' space. It is not isolated from the outside world. The fact that the army of demons appeared in the uninhabited area in the southwest is the evidence. That is to say, there is at least one, and possibly many, escape points that the army of demons can escape from this treasured land!"
Yang Guang's True Spirit shouted angrily, "You can't let these traitors leave!"
"Your Majesty, I'm very sorry, but things have developed unexpectedly," Bai Xiaowen cupped his hands and said. "It's not a bad thing that Brother Yuwen escaped … According to my understanding, the Space Stone … Oh, no, the treasure, the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box, can't be taken out of Jiang Capital. Even if they escape, it will not affect me from obtaining this treasure. "
As the Space Stone, the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box could not be taken out of the treasured land unless the Space Stone was collected by the Awakened, which was equivalent to the treasured land recognizing its owner. Only then could it be taken away by the Awakened. This was the same as the White Ghost Realm's White Stone.
Empress Xiao sighed and said, "Your Majesty, you should be more open-minded … Things have come to this, and Taoist Bai Wenzi can't do anything about it. Yuwen Huaji and the remaining traitors will definitely be punished by Heaven. It's not a long-term solution for us to be affected by the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box and become ghosts. We should let go of our obsession as soon as possible and reincarnate. "
"No! I won't allow it. I want to see Yuwen Huaji and the other traitors die in front of me! " Yang Guang's True Spirit jumped out of the coffin and floated around. His helpless and angry posture reminded people of a caged beast.
Qiao Rui suddenly said, "I found one of the escaping army of demons, but I only saw Pei Qiantong and Fu Xilang."
"It seems that the situation is worse. The remaining leaders of the demons fled in different directions, which makes it more difficult for us to chase after them." Bai Xiaowen said, "Your Majesty, we are few in number. We can't split up to chase after them. What do you think …"
Yang Guang suddenly calmed down and said in a cold voice, "No, I have a way … Quick, send me to the Wanxiang Palace! I can feel that the box is there. "
Empress Xiao was really responsible for Yang Guang. The faint Ghost Qi carried Yang Guang's coffin and accelerated in the direction of the Wanxiang Palace.
Bai Xiaowen and the others looked at each other and sped up to catch up.
No matter what was wrong with Yang Guang, Bai Xiaowen and the others were determined to get the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box. They couldn't go wrong by following him.
After a quarter of an hour, they saw the magnificent gate of the Wanxiang Palace in the north of Jiang Du.
This palace was built by Yang Guang when he was in Jiang Du. A large number of people were recruited, and the palace was majestic and magnificent.
However, Yang Guang wasn't in the mood to revisit his old place. He urged Empress Xiao to hurry into the palace. They walked through the corridors and came to a pavilion.
Bai Xiaowen followed Yang Guang and finally saw the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box.
As its name suggested, the box was made of black gold. However, there was no lock or keyhole. It looked like a heavy black brick. Only the coiling dragon pattern on the surface gave the brick a different aura.
Yang Guang came to the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box and touched the surface of the box with his illusory hand.
Bai Xiaowen frowned. He realized that things weren't simple. As Yang Guang touched it, there seemed to be some changes in the treasured land of Jiang Du.
"The flow of spiritual particles … seems to have slowed down a lot." Qiao Rui was a spiritual expert, and his senses were very sharp.
This feeling was as if someone had suddenly built a dam to block the waterway of a gurgling river.
Yang Guang's slender eyes glanced at Bai Xiaowen. "Alright. Now, the escape passage between Jiang Du and the outside world has been closed! Yuwen Huaji and the other thieves can't escape from this space. You have enough time to hunt down these traitors and present their heads to me! "
After a pause, Yang Guang continued, "But you have to be quick. If I'm not wrong, Jiang Du has become a land of demons due to the influence of the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box. You cultivators won't be able to escape! Maybe in less than three days, you'll become exactly like Yuwen Huaji and the others and lose your human identity. "
Qiao Rui narrowed his eyes and said in the team channel, "Do you want to make a move? Yang Guang's true spirit hasn't been repaired yet. Empress Xiao and the two ghost palace maids shouldn't be able to stop us. Let's just snatch the Dragon-Patterned Golden Box. "
Li Shuyi, Cecilia, and the others had sharp reactions. After hearing Qiao Rui's words, they all moved slightly. On the contrary, Han Xu's reaction was slow. After hearing Qiao Rui's words, he only glanced at Bai Xiaowen and didn't move.
Li Shuyi and Cecilia's movements were very slight. They only adjusted their positions slightly, but the air started to become tense. The two groups of people who were originally from the same camp were now faintly opposing each other.
