While Lin Long was recuperating, the City Lord of Tai Qingcheng gathered all the experts in Tai Qingcheng.
"City Lord, that person is very powerful, and he's also very good at escaping. Now that he's injured, we must grasp this opportunity to deal with him. Otherwise, he will become a thorn in our Tai Qingcheng City's side in the future." An elder said worriedly.
"That's right." Many of the demon race nodded their heads.
"The City Lord naturally knows about this. But now that he's nowhere to be found, how can we deal with him?" A demon race expert said.
"Don't worry. Didn't he bring a female companion? As long as we use that female companion to threaten him, we won't have to worry about him not showing himself. When the time comes, we can set up a trap that he won't be able to escape even if he has wings." A demon race expert said.
"That's a good idea." Many of the demon race experts immediately agreed.
"However, that female companion of his seems to have a rather good relationship with young master Wade." A demon race expert said.
Hearing those words, all of the demon race experts looked at Wade, who was sitting beside the City Lord of Tai Qingcheng City.
Wade hurriedly said, "I only know that woman. I have nothing to do with her."
"That's good. Then we'll use that woman to deal with him!" Hearing Wade's words, many of the demon race experts immediately became excited.
Of course, the one who made the decision was naturally the City Lord. Therefore, they immediately turned their gazes to the City Lord of Tai Qingcheng City.
"Then we'll do as everyone suggested. Use that woman to threaten that human!" The City Lord of Tai Qingcheng City immediately said.
Soon after, Xu Lingfeng was directly brought to the city gates of Tai Qingcheng City. Looking at the gallows before her, how could Xu Lingfeng not know what was going on?
"What are you guys trying to do?" She couldn't help panicking as she looked at the demon race experts that brought her over.
"Nothing much. We're just putting you on the gallows. If that human doesn't come to save you, we'll kill you!" The demon race expert beside her coldly said.
"I have nothing to do with that person. He won't come to save me. Hurry up and let me go." Xu Lingfeng couldn't help shouting.
However, none of the demon race experts paid any attention to her.
Panicking, she couldn't help looking around. With a single glance, she saw Wade, who was hiding not too far away. She immediately yelled at him. "Wade, hurry and save me!"
Who would have thought that Wade would act as if he didn't see anything?
"Wade, I've treated you so well and even offered my body. Why won't you help me?" Xu Lingfeng shouted again.
However, Wade continued to ignore her. Then, he turned around and left.
After that, she couldn't even scream anymore because the monster beside her had already used a cloth to seal her mouth.
At this moment, Xu Lingfeng was filled with regret. She regretted coming to Tai Qing City with Linlong. Why did she insist on following Wade? That way, she wouldn't have encountered such a thing.
But what was the use of regretting now? She simply couldn't call for help.
Then, the demons beside her hung her on the gallows.
"Citizens of Tai Qing City, this human was hung up because she and another human tried to steal from our Tai Qing City. Fortunately, we caught them. We're hanging her up now to lure her companions out," one of the Demon Clan members said.
After a slight pause, he shouted again. "That human, listen up. Your woman has already been captured by us. You are to immediately come to Tai Qing City and surrender. Otherwise, we will kill this woman!"
As he spoke, he used his Profound Qi. So, his voice was extremely loud and clear. It could be heard from every corner of Tai Qing City.
These demons didn't only shout, they even had the demons in the city spread the news. As long as Linlong was around Tai Qing City, he would know of this news.
So, Linlong, who had been recuperating for half a day, immediately received this news.
"Tsk tsk. I don't have any relationship with this woman, yet you're using her to threaten me." Linlong couldn't help but laugh when he heard this news.
He had no relationship with Xu Lingfeng. Furthermore, Xu Lingfeng was the one who requested to come to Tai Qing City to find Wade. So, Linlong didn't feel any burden in his heart.
In other words, even if Xu Lingfeng died, he wouldn't shed a single tear.
However, there was one thing he didn't like, and that was that he didn't like such threats.
Linlong immediately made his way to Tai Qing City. Very quickly, he saw Xu Lingfeng hanging above the city gate.
Xu Lingfeng seemed to be surrounded by some ordinary demons. However, Linlong's powerful divine sense could sense that there were at least a dozen demon experts around Xu Lingfeng.
It could be said that if he went to save Xu Lingfeng, he would immediately be surrounded by these demons. At that time, no matter how powerful he was, he would have to shed a layer of skin to escape.
As he was thinking, a demon suddenly walked over.
When he saw Linlong, the demon was stunned for a moment. Then, he immediately shouted, "You're a human, you're that woman's …"
He couldn't continue shouting because Linlong had already grabbed him. The powerful aura emitted from his body made it impossible for the demon to continue speaking.
"That's right, I'm that human. Go and tell your city lord that if he uses that woman to threaten me again, then he, the city lord, and his son, Wade, will be beheaded!" Linlong sneered.
"I know, I know." The demon nodded repeatedly.
Although he was a demon, Linlong's strength was many times stronger than his. How could he not be afraid?
"Then go." After saying that, Linlong directly let the demon go.
Once the demon left, he immediately ran to Tai Qing City's city lord and repeated Linlong's words.
"He's too arrogant. He actually used such words to threaten the city lord!"
At this moment, there were other demons beside Tai Qing City's city lord. When they heard this, they were all extremely shocked.
Although they were shocked, they were full of smiles because this meant that the other party cared about that woman. It was very likely that they could use that woman to bait him out.
"Tsk tsk. Since you dare to threaten this city lord like this, then this city lord will let you know what is wrong." Tai Qing City's city lord sneered. Then, he directly said to a demon beside him, "Now, immediately go and chop off one of Xu Lingfeng's hands. Also, tell him that if he doesn't come tonight, then he will chop off Xu Lingfeng's head."
"Yes!" The demon hurriedly responded and then hurried to carry out the city lord's order.
Soon, one of Xu Lingfeng's arms was chopped off at the city gate.
At the same time, the demon also used various methods to tell Linlong that if he didn't come tonight, Xu Lingfeng would die.
Linlong, who was near Tai Qing City, naturally received such a message very quickly. However, he was completely indifferent because he didn't care whether Xu Lingfeng died or not.
Unknowingly, it was already night time. But what made Tai Qing City's city lord and the other demons' faces turn ugly was that there was no news of Linlong at all. It was as if Linlong was no longer near Tai Qing City.
"Human, if you still don't show up, I will directly kill Xu Lingfeng!" This time, Tai Qing City's city lord directly shouted.
But no matter how he shouted, everything around him remained silent.
"You don't agree? Then I will chop off another of her arms!" After saying that, Tai Qing City's city lord immediately ordered the demon beside Xu Lingfeng to attack.
That demon raised his hand and the blade fell down. Xu Lingfeng's other arm was directly chopped off.
But after that, the surroundings were still silent.
"City Lord, could it be that the human doesn't care about Xu Lingfeng at all?" A demon beside Tai Qing City's city lord couldn't help asking.
Tai Qing City's city lord tightly knitted his brows, and then he shouted again, "Human, I will give you another 10 minutes. If you still don't show up, then even her head will be chopped off!"
After he said that, the surroundings were still silent.
"City Lord, are you really going to kill Xu Lingfeng in 10 minutes?" The demon beside Tai Qing City's city lord asked again.
"Of course!" Tai Qing City's city lord replied without the slightest hesitation.
He was a demon that even chopped off Xu Lingfeng's arms, so he wouldn't have tender feelings for the fairer sex. So when the time came, he would naturally do as the demon said.
Time passed slowly, and before he knew it, 10 minutes had passed.
Just when Tai Qing City's city lord was completely disappointed and felt that Xu Lingfeng wouldn't be able to bait Linlong out, a shrill cry suddenly resounded from the west of Tai Qing City.
"Ah … …"
Such a voice resounded through the night sky.
It was clearly the voice of the demon race.
"It's that human!" Many of the demon race immediately exclaimed.
Tai Qing City's city lord and some of the demon race immediately rushed in the direction of the shrill cry.
Very quickly, they rushed to that place, but what made their expressions turn ugly was that apart from the dead Demon Race martial artist, they did not see anyone else at all.
As soon as they stopped, another shrill cry resounded from the north of Tai Qing City. Obviously, another demon race martial artist was killed.
Tai Qing City's city lord and the demon race hurried over.
However, when they arrived there, the situation was still the same as before. There were only dead demons, and that human was nowhere to be seen.
What made them depressed was that as soon as they arrived, another shrill cry resounded from the south.
"Apart from those guarding the city gate, everyone else is to immediately search the city and find that human. I want to tear him into pieces!" Tai Qing City's city lord immediately roared.
After giving this order, he returned to the city gate.
He was afraid that the other party would use the tactic of luring the tiger out of the mountain and then kidnap Xu Lingfeng.
However, what made his face turn ugly was that such a method was useless. Because the demon race was too scattered, the other party wasn't afraid of encountering a group of demon race at all. By the time the other demon race arrived, those demon race martial artists who encountered the other party would have already been killed by the other party.
After two batches of demon race martial artists died in a row, the demon race elders beside Tai Qing City's city lord could no longer sit still.
"City Lord, that human is not only powerful, but his Spirit Sense also seems to be equally powerful!" A demon race elder couldn't help saying.
"Yeah, his Spirit Sense should be very powerful." Another demon race elder echoed.
Because if one didn't have a powerful Spirit Sense, it would be impossible to come and go freely in their Tai Qing City.
"If this goes on, I'm afraid that more than half of the demon race martial artists in our Tai Qing City will die tonight!" Subsequently, they couldn't help worrying.
Tai Qing City's city lord's face was ashen. He also knew that this wouldn't do, but what else could he do now?
"City Lord, perhaps we can only activate the runic array in the city and take out the Tai Qing Sword!" At this moment, a demon race elder who hadn't said a word before suddenly said.
