Not long after, a law enforcement disciple came to Xing Bai's living room. In front of him was Xing Bai, who was discussing something with an elder.
"What's the matter?" Xing Bai raised his head and looked at the disciple.
"Sect Leader, Linlong has appeared on the ninth floor of the pagoda," the disciple hurriedly said.
This disciple was placed in the law enforcement team by Xing Bai, so he naturally picked the most important matter first.
"Linlong has appeared?" Xing Bai was stunned. He already knew that Linlong had entered the third floor, but he didn't expect him to come out unscathed and appear on the ninth floor.
"Did he get hurt?" Xing Bai asked expressionlessly.
"No," the disciple replied.
"Oh," Xing Bai nodded thoughtfully.
"Other than coming out himself, Lin Long also brought some natives out from the third floor of the pagoda," the disciple added.
"Natives?" Xing Bai was stunned.
"From what Linlong said, some people who have lived on the third floor for many years had to come out because of the changes inside," the disciple replied.
Hearing this, Xing Bai frowned. He didn't expect there to be humans living in the pagoda. Then, he hurriedly asked, "Did Linlong say what happened on the third floor?"
"Linlong said that he didn't encounter anything dangerous on the third floor," the disciple said.
"Yes," Xing Bai nodded.
"Other than reporting this information, I also hope that Sect Leader can let these natives leave the pagoda," the disciple continued.
"Oh." Hearing this disciple's words, Xing Bai thought for a moment before asking, "Is Linlong also among them?"
"No, Linlong left after sending them to the ninth floor. From the looks of it, he went to the third floor," the disciple replied.
"Is that so?" Xing Bai's eyes immediately lit up. Then, he said, "Alright, take these rune terms to Nangong Yi and ask her to bring those people out. However, after they come out, immediately bring them to the law enforcement hall to see me."
With that, he picked up a pen and wrote some rune terms on a piece of paper before handing it to the disciple.
The disciple immediately left after receiving it.
When the disciple walked out, the elder beside him immediately said in surprise, "I never thought that there would be natives in the pagoda, and that Lin Long was able to come out unscathed."
"That is quite surprising," Xing Bai said.
"For Linlong to be able to come out of the third level unscathed, I'm sure the Violet Sun Divine Sword is really in his hands. As for why he immediately returned, it's most likely because there are still some treasures on the third floor, "the elder said.
Previously, they had already guessed that the Violet Sun Divine Sword had been obtained by a disciple of the Zi Yang Sect. However, in the end, Nangong Yi had brought a group of disciples out of the pagoda, while Hua Haotian and the others had died in the fourth level of the pagoda.
Under such circumstances, although Nangong Yi did not elaborate and did not mention that the Violet Sun Divine Sword was in Linlong's hands, Xing Bai and the elder naturally guessed so.
After all, the strong cultivators who were still alive were basically Nangong Yi and Linlong. Nangong Yi did not have the Violet Sun Divine Sword, so only Linlong had it.
Of course, it was also possible that the Violet Sun Divine Sword had been taken back by the demons below, but that did not stop them from treating Linlong as a suspect. Moreover, Linlong had come out of the third level unscathed and returned.
"That's most likely it." Xing Bai nodded, then sighed, "Unfortunately, because of the restrictions of the pagoda's Runic Matrix, we cannot enter. Otherwise, we could go in and check it out."
"Don't worry, Sect Leader. After all, there are still some loyal disciples who can go in and see what's going on," the elder said.
"Now that things have come to this, that's all we can do," Xing Bai replied.
Then, he called a disciple in and ordered him to find some other disciples. He had urgent matters to discuss with them.
After receiving the order, the disciple hurriedly left.
As he watched the disciple leave, a sliver of worry surfaced on the elder's face. "If Lin Long has the violet sun divine sword in his hand, coupled with his improvement in strength, I'm afraid that the disciples we've sent will not be a match for him."
"Elder Lu, you don't have to worry about that. I'm only sending these disciples just in case. At that time, even if they don't gain anything, even if the sword is in Linlong's hands, I will use my own identity to take it. After all, Linlong is a disciple of the Zi Yang Sect in name. I don't think he'll dare to refuse." Xing Bai's face revealed a sinister smile as he spoke.
Although Nangong Yi said that Hua Haotian was killed by the evil spirit, Xing Bai did not think that it was that simple. He had a feeling that it was Linlong who did it.
However, without any evidence, he could only suspect and hate Linlong in his heart.
Under the new and old hatred, he did not like Linlong at all. Coupled with his greed for the Violet Sun Divine Sword, it was not strange for him to have such thoughts.
"I was too engrossed in personal gains and losses. I actually forgot about this." Elder Lu slapped his forehead upon hearing Xing Bai's words.
"Alright, Elder Lu, come with me to the Disciplinary Hall. Let's see just what kind of people these natives are." Xing Bai walked out of the hall in large strides.
After responding, Elder Lu followed behind Xing Bai.
The two of them had a good relationship. Therefore, no matter what happened, Xing Bai would discuss it with Elder Lu.
Of course, the Zi Yang Sect was not divided into factions. It was just that Elder Lu was more agreeable to Xing Bai, unlike the Disciplinary Elder, who was sometimes stubborn to the end.
When the two of them arrived at the Disciplinary Hall, Nangong Yi was already waiting with A 'Ying and the others.
After glancing at A 'Ying and the others, Xing Bai's gaze paused on Nangong Yi.
"Yi 'er, are these the people who live on the third level of the pagoda?" Xing Bai asked.
"Yes, Uncle-Master." Nangong Yi nodded, "Uncle-Master, I've checked these people. They are all ordinary people without any Qi. I hope you can arrange for them to live in a nearby town."
Nangong Yi originally thought that Xing Bai would agree readily, but Xing Bai frowned and said coldly, "Yi 'er, what makes you think that these people are not a threat to us in Xuan Yang City? You should know that these people came from a place where evil spirits roam. Who knows if they have any evil things on them?"
Nangong Yi was speechless and didn't know what to say. After all, Xing Bai was her elder and the headmaster of the Zi Yang Sect.
"But …"
Nangong Yi wanted to say something else, but Xing Bai already spoke to the law enforcement disciples outside, "Take these people to the dungeon."
A 'Ying and the others, who were curiously looking at the grand Disciplinary Hall, had a change of expression. They didn't think that things would take such a sudden turn.
They immediately said, "We're not bad people."
But Xing Bai didn't give them a chance. He directly ordered the law enforcement disciples to take them away.
A 'Long and the other warriors naturally didn't want to give up, but compared to the law enforcement disciples, they were far too weak. They only struggled for a while before they were put down.
As for the women and children, the elderly, they couldn't even resist.
The group of people were quickly subdued and taken to the dungeon.
Nangong Yi was anxious, but there was nothing he could do.
"Yi 'er, why are you so anxious about these people you've just met? Could it be because of Linlong?"
At this moment, Xing Bai suddenly spoke, and it caused Nangong Yi's expression to change slightly.
After a cold snort, Xing Bai turned around and left the Disciplinary Hall.
Then, under Xing Bai's arrangements, a few disciples who listened to his orders and were quite strong were arranged to enter the pagoda and went straight to the third level.
Apart from them, some disciples who received news of the possible treasures on the third level also entered the pagoda and went to the third level.
In an instant, the originally quiet Demon Subduing Pagoda became lively again.
While they were moving, Linlong had already arrived at the world where A 'Ying and the others were. He entered through the entrance above the swamp.
Now, there was no longer any light in this world. It was pitch-black everywhere. Other than that, there was no other change.
The mountain was still the same mountain, and the road was still the same.
Following his memory, Linlong quickly arrived at the entrance of the Black Cloud Cave.
He heaved a sigh of relief. The strange rebound force at the entrance of the cave was still there. In other words, the Black Cloud Cave was still bound by the runic array. Otherwise, he was really worried that something strange would happen to the Black Cloud Cave and he wouldn't be able to find the demon inside.
Although the demon was incomparably strong, Linlong couldn't care less for the sake of obtaining the spiritual fire. Hence, after a slight pause, he walked towards the entrance of the cave.
Since his strength had recovered, the strange rebound force at the entrance of the cave did not pose much of an obstacle to him. In a short while, he had already reached the entrance of the cave with ease.
The moment he entered the cave, he immediately arrived at the endless desert world.
His Divine Sense immediately spread out. Not far in front of him, the incomparably huge cage was still in the endless desert, and the seemingly endless chains were still on the cage.
Soon after, Linlong's gaze stopped at the cage. The endless demonic aura inside was slowly gathering together, and an incomparably old man with grizzled hair appeared in front of him.
Linlong was slightly taken aback when he saw the other party's face. Soon after, he immediately understood that this old man was the Third Prince of the Demon Race, whose eyes were incomparably demonic.
It was likely that his vitality had been greatly damaged, which was why he had become so old.
At the sight of Linlong, the demon immediately roared, "Little brat, you actually dare to return! Do you believe that I won't use the supreme true method of the Demon Race to kill you! "
If he wanted to kill Linlong in this place, he would definitely have to pay an even greater price than before. Generally speaking, he would not do such a thing.
