The two patrolling ghosts saw the opportunity and wanted to send a signal. However, Xue Qian Qiu and Ying Feiyang were even faster. Ying Feiyang used the Imperial Sword Technique and the Star Ji Sword flew out of his hand. He used the One Line Lightning Sword and shot towards one of them. The ghost cultivator did not expect the sword to be so fast and did not have time to send a signal. Instead, he took out a ghost banner to block the sword. 【Love ↑ Go △ Small ↓ Talk → Net

Ying Feiyang followed closely behind the Star Ji Sword and used the Chaotic Wind and Clouds. His sword was like a storm and it was fast and dense. In a short moment, he had already stabbed out countless times. The ghost cultivator was exhausted. He had the signal flare in his arms but he could not send it out.
Suddenly, he heard his companion groan. He was very familiar with that sound. It was the sound of a person's neck being broken before he could even scream. He was shocked but he used his injury to retreat. He quickly retreated and broke through the circle of swords behind him. He took a deep breath and was about to shout. Suddenly, he felt a pair of big hands reaching out from behind and grabbing the back of his neck. The ghost cultivator's vision turned black and he fainted.
Seeing that Xue Qian Qiu had not only defeated his opponent in an instant, but had also easily restrained his own opponent, Ying Feiyang's evaluation of Xue Qian Qiu rose by a few points.
"Although he was defeated by the Sword Emperor, it was only because the Sword Emperor was too strong. The leader of the Asura Path is definitely an expert who can dominate a region …"
Xue Qian Qiu also said to him, "Brother Ying, you are a bit slow …"
Ying Feiyang shrugged his shoulders and said, "I wanted to leave someone alive. Naturally, I had my considerations when I attacked."
Just when he was about to say something, footsteps could be heard from both sides. Ying Feiyang and Xue Qian Qiu did not have time to speak and looked around. To the side, there was an animal shed. There were pillars as tall as a man in the animal shed, and more than ten large lizards were chained to it. In front of the shed was a bloody trough filled with meat scraps for the lizards to eat.
This kind of large lizard moved quickly and was good at carrying heavy loads, so the Yin Wangyao liked it very much. They were raised as their leg power, and the one in the middle was more than twice the size of the others. The cyan sarcoma on its head was like a crown, and on its back was a palanquin the size of a white bone palace. This lizard was the exclusive mount of the Yin Wangyao. When Ying Feiyang first met Yin Wangyao, he was sitting in the palace on the lizard's back, and he easily resolved Xu Weiyang's and Daoist Miao's attacks.
Since there were people coming from both the front and the back, Ying Feiyang and Xie Qian Qiu made a prompt decision, each carrying a person and a corpse into the White Bones Palace to hide.
There were indeed two groups of people coming from both sides. Fortunately, they didn't see any clues.
After they left, Ying Feiyang heaved a sigh of relief and cursed, "Why are there so many people? Vice-leader Xue, when you sneaked into the palace three days ago, was the security as tight as this?"
"Oh? Brother Ying only entered the secret room a little earlier than me. Don't you know how tight the palace's security was then? "Xie Qian Qiu sensed that something was wrong with Ying Feiyang's words, so he asked in a roundabout way.
Ying Feiyang's eyes flashed, and he said vaguely, "I just wanted to compare myself with Vice-leader Xue …"
Xie Qian Qiu revealed an undetectable sneer, and replied, "At that time, the security was very lax, and I could sneak in easily. But today, the security is more than ten times stronger."
Ying Feiyang thought for a while, and pointed to the roof of the palace, saying, "I'll go up and take a look." He then leaped out and hid on the roof.
The main hall of the palace was the tallest building in the Ghost City. From the roof, one could see the palace and even half of the Ghost City. There was a sentry every five steps, and there were ghost cultivators and ghost soldiers patrolling every street in the Imperial Palace and even Ghost City. He couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. This strict security was completely different from the sloppy and lax patrolling three days ago.
Ying Feiyang was afraid of attracting attention from high up, so he didn't dare to stay any longer and flew back into the White Bones Palace.
"How was it?" Xie Qian Qiu asked.
Ying Feiyang told the truth, and Xie Qian Qiu couldn't help but frown. He then patted the captured ghost cultivator to wake him up.
The ghost cultivator opened his eyes, and just when he was about to scream, Xie Qian Qiu grabbed his throat and said, "Do you know who I am?"
"Vice-leader Xue?" The captured ghost only saw Xie Qian Qiu's face for the first time.
Xie Qian Qiu said coldly, "It's good that you recognize me. We are both from the Six Paths, and I don't need to tell you what methods we use to interrogate you. If you don't want to live a life worse than death, then answer my question. Do you hear me?"
The ghost cultivator hurriedly nodded. Xie Qian Qiu let go of him and asked, "Why is the security so tight today? Do you know the reason? "
The ghost cultivator said, "It was the Tenth Young Mistress who ordered us to return …"
"Let's go back and defend. Did something happen again?"
"Not really. It's still about the search for the escaped Daoist disciples. The Tenth Young Mistress said that the most dangerous place is the safest place. But if everyone thinks the same way, the safest place will become the most dangerous place again. Therefore, she ordered us to search outside the city on the first day. If we still can't find anyone within a day, then it would be pointless to expand the search area. It would only make our manpower more and more scattered. Why don't we shrink the search area back to the Ghost City and fight it out? If the Daoist disciples really return to the Ghost City in the opposite direction, then they would be walking right into the trap. We would also be caught in the trap … "Looking at Ying Feiyang's unfriendly expression, the ghost cultivator forcefully swallowed the last word 'turtle'.
"Oh, only capturing the Daoist disciples? Seems like it has nothing to do with the Shura Path?" Xie Qian Qiu's expression changed.
"Yes … The Tenth Young Mistress didn't say, but … Daoist Master Sang secretly told me that if I meet Vice Leader Xue, I should ask you to stay. She wants to reminisce with you …" The ghost cultivator said timidly.
Ying Feiyang patted Xie Qian Qiu's shoulder and said, "Vice Leader Xue, don't try your luck. You should know that we are in the same boat now!"
Xie Qian Qiu snorted and asked a few more questions about the situation of the defense. Although the ghost cultivator answered everything he knew, there was no useful information.
After Xie Qian Qiu finished asking, the ghost cultivator carefully asked, "Vice Leader Xue, I have always heard that you are a man of your words. I have answered all your questions. Can you let me go now?"
"Of course I will!" Xie Qian Qiu smiled and casually twisted his neck, "But I only said that if you don't answer, you will suffer a fate worse than death. I didn't say that I would let you go. Letting you die quickly is considered a promise!"
After that, Xie Qian Qiu dragged out the two corpses and put them into the lizards' food trough. With a spurt of energy, the corpses were crushed into pieces. The lizards smelled the blood and woke up. They started to eat the food and in the blink of an eye, the two corpses were eaten clean.
Ying Feiyang had never seen such a scene before. He felt his stomach churning and wanted to vomit, but he forced himself to be fine. He asked, "Vice Leader Xue, what do you plan to do now?"
"It won't be easy to break in by force. Let's go back to the secret chamber first!"
Ying Feiyang nodded in agreement. The two of them then returned to the secret chamber. Under everyone's expectant gazes, he revealed the unfortunate truth. Everyone's eyes turned gloomy. Only Yin Jiuquan was unsure whether this was good news or bad news for him.
After that, everyone tried to come up with a plan. But under the absolute tight defense, they couldn't come up with any good ideas. In the end, Xie Qian Qiu said, "It seems like you guys don't have any good ideas. The only thing we can do now is to wait. As the saying goes, 'One can only be a thief for a hundred days, but not a thief for a hundred days'. This place is well-stocked. Let's stay here for a long time. At most, they can search for us for ten days or half a month. After a long time, they will definitely give up!"
"Other than the saying that was not very appropriate, I agree with everything else. There's no other way, let's continue to wait …"
After the discussion ended, the two groups of people returned to their respective stone chambers. They then set up a soundproof barrier and started a discussion that they didn't want the other party to know about.
Artifact Room.
Ying Feiyang first said with an apologetic face, "Holy Lady, I'm sorry. I thought that I was smart. I said that the most dangerous place is the safest place. I made you fall into danger …"
Holy Lady Ling Xin shook her head and said, "Brother Ying, you're too serious. It's my injury that dragged you down. With me around, it's not easy to escape from their search. Other than returning to the Ghost City, there's no better way. But this Jiu Zi Ghost Mother's Tenth Lady must be a smart person to be able to predict this. "
"That's true. I wonder who she is," Ying Feiyang said, still feeling a little annoyed.
Zhang Running said, "Let's not talk about her first. Ying Feiyang, are we really going to stay here for another ten days or half a month?"
Ying Feiyang shook his head and said, "No. Based on my observation, Xue Qian Qiu's power is stronger than Holy Lady's at her peak. Plus, Holy Lady's innate Qi is hard to recover in the Ghost Realm. Xue Qian Qiu is a cunning old fox. If we let him test us for another ten days or half a month, we'll definitely reveal our flaws. By then, we won't even need to wait for the Hell Realm to make a move.
Zhang Running's expression changed and he said, "We still have a backup plan. Xue Qian Qiu and the others still don't know that Yin Jiuquan is one of us. We also didn't tell them about the secret passage in the secret chamber. Could it be that we're going to leave from there?"
Ying Feiyang said, "Not only the palace, but the whole Ghost City is heavily guarded. If we leave from there, we'll have to be a little more cautious. After all, we won't be able to escape from the eyes and ears of others."
Zhang Running said anxiously, "This won't work, that won't work. Then how are we going to leave this damn place!"
"Are you in a hurry to go back and hug your unborn child?" Ying Feiyang sneered, but before Zhang Running could get angry, his expression turned serious and he said confidently, "Don't worry, all the preparations are in place. I have my ways!"

Pill Room.
Similarly, a conversation was going on, but there was one person who was pushed out first.
Xue Qian Qiu said, "Brother Yin, I still have something to discuss with Wan Lu. Please stand guard outside first."
Yin Jiuquan cursed in his heart, but he was already used to it. He stood guard outside the door, wanting to find out some information. However, there was also a soundproofing enchantment inside, so he couldn't find out anything.
And in the inner chamber, the originally calm and composed Xue Qian Qiu suddenly turned pale after Yin Jiuquan left, and a trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth.
Seeing this, Xue Wan Lu said, "Uncle, is your sword injury acting up again?"
Xue Qian Qiu wiped his lips and said lightly, "It's nothing. I just went out for a bit of exercise. I can't let my Qi leak in front of that brat Ying Feiyang. In the end, I was too anxious and triggered some Sword Qi. However, I've already suppressed it. Don't worry for now. "
"It's all that brat Ying Feiyang's fault, testing me again and again. Damn it!" Xue Wan Lu slammed his fist on the ground and cursed angrily, looking like he couldn't wait to kill him.
Xue Qian Qiu said disapprovingly, "If he wants to try, then let him try. Although this brat is cunning, he is still inexperienced. What can he do to me?"
"But uncle, although your cultivation is deep, if you keep suppressing the Sword Qi in your body and don't try to force it out, as time goes on, the damage to your meridians will only worsen!"
Xue Qian Qiu laughed, "Now is not the time. Your injuries have not healed yet. If I force the Sword Qi out now, it will add new injuries to your old ones. Both of us are injured, how can we deal with the Buddhists and Yin Jiuquan? Why don't we hold on for a while while we can. "
Xue Wan Lu said, "But uncle, if we really hold on for ten days to half a month, your injuries will worsen. At that time, if we force the Sword Qi out, we might lose our lives."
Xue Qian Qiu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You think too highly of me. How can I suppress Yue Cang Qiong's golden sword light for ten days to half a month? Three days, at most three days. If I don't force the Sword Qi out in three days, it will explode and I will die."
Xue Wan Lu was shocked, "Then you said that if we wait here for ten days to half a month, we will definitely die?"
Xue Qian Qiu laughed and scolded, "Silly child, of course I'm not telling the truth. I'm afraid only you really believe me. We don't need to wait for ten days to half a month. Within three days, we will definitely leave this place."
"Within three days?" Xue Wan Lu's eyes lit up, "Uncle, do you have a way to escape?"
"I don't have one yet?"
Hearing this, Xue Wan Lu was instantly discouraged, "Then why did you say just now …"
Xue Qian Qiu's lips curled into a smile, "Don't worry, although I don't have a way to escape, Ying Feiyang has a way!"
