Yuan Lianyao arrived in midair.
Numerous blazing flame lotuses, releasing an astonishingly high temperature, revolved around her like little suns.
She was also at the late Subtle realm, and she had made great gains in the Fallen Moon Forbidden Land. Her actual battle prowess might not be any weaker than Lei Xiao and Liu Wei's.
The Silver Moon Empire and the Red Devil School stood behind Yuan Lianyao. This was a fact that everyone was aware of.
The Red Devil School of the Tranquil Continent was the third most powerful sect after the Devil's Palace and the Goblin Temple.
Compared to the lightning element sect and the Frigid Yin Sect, the Red Devil School's foundation and strength were much stronger.
After the Silver Moon Empire and the Red Devil School had reached a tacit understanding, Yuan Lianyao had become more and more important. This also gave her confidence that she didn't fear anyone from the lightning element sect and the Frigid Yin Sect.
"City Lord Yuan."
Liu Wei's brow furrowed. After a moment of hesitation, he pointed at the corpses of the Black Fiend Army and said, "These are the traitors of the Divine Might Empire. They fled to Dark Moon City. We ran into them and took care of them for you. How will you thank us, City Lord?"
The young men and women who had come to the Qian Xuan Continent for the first time all sized Yuan Lianyao up and clicked their tongues in wonder.
Upon seeing her, Yu Yuan sighed inwardly. "What a pity..."
Yu Zhu had been hiding in the dark. Given her strength, it wouldn't have been difficult for her to take care of Lei Xiao, Liu Wei, and the other guests from the lightning element sect and the Frigid Yin Sect.
Originally, he had planned to take care of them all in one go.
Now that Yuan Lianyao had arrived, it was no longer realistic for him to kill Lei Xiao and Liu Wei without anyone noticing.
He didn't want to expose Yu Zhu's abilities and talents too early, lest she attract unwanted attention.
Therefore, he could only give up for now.
"The Black Fiend Army attacked our people. We'll definitely pursue this matter." Yuan Lianyao floated beside Yu Yuan. She suddenly landed and looked at Wei Feng, who was bound and had a cloth stuffed in her mouth, and asked, "Is she a member of the Black Fiend Army?"
Yu Yuan nodded.
"I must have this Black Fiend Army soldier called Wei Feng!" Liu Wei sucked in a deep breath and suddenly stared at Yu Yuan, saying, "Name your price."
Before Yuan Lianyao appeared, he had planned to take Wei Feng away by force.
If Yu Yuan tried to stop him, he might just take the opportunity to get rid of him to prevent future troubles.
Now that Yuan Lianyao was here, he knew that if he really messed things up, the Chilling Yin Sect would immediately become enemies with the Silver Moon Empire and the Red Devil School. He was afraid that his actions would be restricted in the future.
After weighing the pros and cons, he felt that the gains did not make up for the losses, so he changed his method.
"Zhan Tianyou of the Zhan family in Youyue City was almost killed by her crossbow." Yuan Lian Yao's face was dark, "I also want to know why the Black Fiend Army appeared in Anyue City! Yu Yuan, can you let me deal with this female Black Liao Army soldier named Wei Feng and let me bring her back to Dark Moon City? "
Yu Yuan stared blankly for a moment before nodding. "I'll listen to the City Lord."
Liu Wei and Lei Xiao looked displeased after hearing Yuan Lianyao's words.
"Alright, take her with you. We'll return to Dark Moon City." Yuan Lianyao made a prompt decision.
"Alright."
Yu Yuan did not waste time. He lifted Wei Feng, whose hands were tied behind her back, onto his shoulder, and motioned to Ning Ji, saying, "Let's go back."
Ning Ji deliberately avoided looking at Liu Wei and immediately walked over.
Bai Shenshen of the Heavenly Medicine Sect pondered for a moment before saying, "Yu Yuan, I've come to visit your grandfather in the Yu Clan."
"Then let's go together." Yu Yuan nodded.
With these words, he carried Wei Feng away.
Ning Ji and Bai Shenshen followed suit. Yuan Lianyao was the only one who did not move. She just looked at Liu Wei calmly.
Lei Xiao and the seven disciples of the Thunder Sect and the Chilling Yin Sect also looked at Liu Wei.
It seemed that if Liu Wei said the word, they would attack together, kill Yu Yuan and the others, and take Wei Feng away regardless of Yuan Lianyao's status.
Liu Wei's face was cold, and he did not say a word.
He did not say a word and just stared at Yuan Lianyao.
Yuan Lianyao was unmoved.
"Let's part ways here."
After a while, when she saw that Yu Yuan had completely disappeared, Yuan Lianyao smiled at Liu Wei and flew away on her flaming lotus.
After she left, Lei Xiao frowned and said, "Why didn't you attack?"
"Liu Wei!"
The man from the Frigid Yin Sect looked at the heroic disciple and called him by his name without any trace of politeness. "Even if a small city lord of Dark Moon City has some connections with the Crimson Devil Sect, what do we have to fear? With your and Elder Lei's strength, can't you defeat her if you work together?
"As for Junior Martial Sister Lin's fiancé and that Heavenly Medicine Sect disciple, we can definitely subdue them."
He did not understand why Liu Wei, who was known for his courage in the sect, became so restrained.
"Do you see that arm?"
Liu Wei pointed at the arm of the Black Fiend Army's Subtle realm warrior that he had cut off.
Lei Xiao asked, "What's wrong?"
"Before we came, he had lost an arm. Moreover, Wei Feng and the Black Fiend Army were planning to retreat." Liu Wei suddenly became unusually calm. "With just Yu Yuan, the Heavenly Medicine Sect, and those three trash, how could they make the Black Fiend Army retreat? If the Black Fiend Army retreated, there was only one possibility for Wei Feng to seek death.
"They had no chance of winning at all. That's why they did this!
"Actually, I've been vigilant and felt that there was someone else in the dark. I infuriated Yu Yuan because I wanted to see who it was and see if we could swallow them.
"In the end, it was Yuan Lianyao who came."
Whether it was Lei Xiao or the other young sect disciples, they were all baffled by his words. They could not guess what he was thinking.
"It's not Yuan Lianyao!"
Liu Wei took a deep breath and looked at the Black Fiend Army warrior who had his heart pierced by a bone. He said, "The one hiding in the dark, forcing the Black Fiend Army to flee and making Wei Feng want to commit suicide is not the City Lord of Dark Moon City!"
When he said this, Lei Xiao suddenly realized, "There's someone else?"
"Yes, there must be someone else!" Liu Wei nodded. "If the person who came matched the death of the Black Fiend Army, I would have let you attack. But that Yuan Lianyao's attack method was completely different from the injuries of the Black Fiend Army warrior. This means that there is someone else in the dark.
"And I was actually paying attention in secret, but I couldn't detect the other person's presence. But when Yuan Lianyao came close, I instantly became vigilant. After a certain distance, I knew that it was the City Lord of Dark Moon City. "
At this point, the handsome young man from Frost Yin Sect also realized. "There is someone in the dark who is even scarier than Yuan Lianyao? Also, you knew that it was definitely not our friend, so you endured it? "
"That's right," Liu Wei said.
After hearing his explanation, the trial takers of the Thunder Sect and Frost Yin Sect all thought deeply and then went to check the injuries of the Black Fiend Army warrior to confirm his guess.
Soon, everyone came to a conclusion — Liu Wei's guess was correct.
The expert who had secretly killed the Black Fiend Army warrior had used an attack method that didn't contain a trace of flame power. It had nothing to do with Yuan Lianyao.
— There was someone else!
"Wei Feng has been taken away by Yuan Lianyao. What should we do?" Lei Xiao suddenly asked.
"Yuan Lian Yao insisted on getting herself into trouble and wanted Dark Moon City to die with her. Why should we care so much?" Liu Wei snorted. "It's not like Wei Feng's group was the only ones who passed through that strange land. We want to capture Wei Feng alive and are worried that she will commit suicide. Of course we can't go all out.
"However, it won't be hard to spread the news that she has been captured by Yuan Lianyao and let the rest of the Black Fiend Army know."
Looking in the direction of Dark Moon City, Liu Wei's eyes were cold. "The Black Fiend Army is a bunch of vicious mad dogs. They don't care about anything now. If they know that Wei Feng has been captured by the City Lord of Dark Moon City, do you think the surviving Black Fiend Army warriors will let this go?
"They don't even fear the Divine Might Empire, much less Dark Moon City, the weakest city in the Silver Moon Empire."
Liu Wei said maliciously.
Lei Xiao's expression changed as he said, "If the Black Fiend Army enters Silver Moon City in large numbers, the casualties will be terrifying. Maybe even Yuan Lianyao's city lord's mansion will fall."
Liu Wei said, "If that's the case, the Silver Moon Empire and the Red Devil School won't blame us. Instead, they will think of a way to deal with the Black Fiend Army. Isn't that the same as our goal?"
"You're so thoughtful," the young man from the Frigid Yin Sect said in admiration. "The older the ginger, the wiser."
… …
Yu Yuan, who was carrying Wei Feng and knocking her unconscious again after she struggled repeatedly, lowered his head, his eyes flashing with uncertainty.
He was hesitating.
Yu Zhu was still in the dark and had a subtle connection with his heavenly soul. Yu Zhu could sense the thoughts he sent out.
He was wondering if he should order Yu Zhu to quietly take out Lei Xiao, Liu Wei, and the others.
But now, they were still too close to Liu Wei and the others.
Once Yu Zhu made her move, the spiritual light that burst out from the other side would probably alarm Yuan Lianyao and cause her to turn around.
He didn't want Yuan Lianyao to know too much about Yu Zhu.
Therefore, he silently calculated the distance between them and asked Yu Zhu to follow them in secret.
All of a sudden, faint wisps of soul smoke came to form around Yu Zhu.
Yu Zhu seemed to have heard the conversation between Lei Xiao and Liu Wei with her innate talent. Then, she tried to tell him with her unique rhythm, which only Yu Yuan could sense.
Yu Yuan stopped and focused on sensing her. Only then did he understand what she wanted to say.
The way she expressed herself wasn't that complicated, so Yu Yuan could easily understand her.
It was much more complicated for her to tell Yu Yuan what she heard from other people in her own way. Therefore, it was a little difficult for Yu Yuan to understand what she was saying.
Eventually, he got a general idea.
"We can't take Wei Feng back to Dark Moon City."
Under Yuan Lianyao's confused gaze, he added, "This woman is very special in the Black Fiend Army. The Frigid Yin Sect and the lightning element sect are here for her. As far as I know, there are quite a few survivors in the Black Fiend Army. It seems that their commander is still alive. If we take her back to Dark Moon City and the Black Fiend Army learns about it, I'm afraid it'll bring disaster to Dark Moon City. "
Upon hearing these words, Yuan Lianyao's heart tightened, and she couldn't help but ponder.
After a while, she looked at Yu Yuan and asked, "What should we do then?"
