Before coming here, Ye Zichen had foreseen that Gu Li would set up an inescapable net to deal with him.
It would be very difficult for him and the Great Sage to defend against Gu Li's subordinates. Even if the two of them managed to break through the encirclement, the Zi family members would still be affected.
That was why Ye Zichen had come up with this plan. He'd used the Seventy-Two Transformations to create the box containing the key fragment.
Then, he told Ziyun and Zixia to go ahead and repeat the lines they'd rehearsed countless times before heading out. He had Gu Li lead them to the Zi Family clansmen.
Earlier, Ye Zichen hadn't dared say he'd save the entire Zi Family clansmen because he could only use this method once. He couldn't be sure whether or not Gu Li would lock them up separately.
To his surprise, Gu Li had placed them all in the same courtyard for the sake of keeping an eye on them.
"I knew you'd come."
When he saw Ye Zichen appear out of nowhere, Gu Li's eyes didn't betray even a hint of surprise. On the contrary, he smiled faintly.
"Of course I came. Thank you for leading the way. Otherwise, it would've taken me a lot of trouble to find this place. Also, thank you for keeping them all in the same place. It saved me the trouble of looking for someone else, "laughed Ye Zichen.
"I truly miscalculated. It's just that there are so many people in the Zi Family. You …."
Before Gu Li could even finish his sentence, a black pagoda suddenly appeared in the sky with a loud rumble.
"Did you forget? The Yao-Sealing Pagoda is in my hands!"
"Return!"
Under the astonished gazes of the surrounding demons, the members of the Zi Clan in the courtyard flickered, and in the blink of an eye, all the members of the Zi Clan in the courtyard disappeared.
Ziyun and Zixia disappeared as well. Ye Zichen put them all in the Yao-Sealing Pagoda, then the black pagoda returned to his hands.
"It really is a treasure!"
Even now, Gu Li didn't seem surprised in the slightest.
"I still have to thank you for coming to my trap, and even … delivering all your treasures into my hands."
Suddenly, Gu Li took a step back. Ye Zichen was instantly surrounded by a sea of demon experts.
"Hey, quite a few people, huh?" Ye Zichen scratched his head and laughed.
"Are you afraid?" asked Gu Li.
"Afraid? Did we just meet? What have I not seen before? You actually think that I'm afraid? " "It seems like you still haven't noticed. Do you want me to remind you? Don't you feel like I'm missing someone?"
Gu Li, who'd been grinning from ear to ear, finally revealed a hint of surprise. Only now did he realize that the Great Sage, who'd always been by Ye Zichen's side, wasn't here.
He knew that person's cultivation realm. At the very least, he was an Imperial Lord.
Could it be?
"Great Sage, I'm here!"
Suddenly, Ye Zichen waved behind Gu Li. Almost all the demons in the courtyard were attracted by it and looked back.
However, there was no one behind them at all. Where was the Great Sage Ye Zichen had mentioned?
When they retracted their gazes, they discovered …
He was gone!
"F * ck, I've fallen into his trap."
Ye Zichen had long since lost all sense of direction. Gu Li, who hadn't swore in ages, couldn't help but curse.
"Did anyone see where he went?"
None of the demons replied. Gu Li narrowed his eyes and looked around. He could vaguely sense the spatial fluctuations around him.
Could it be that he'd mastered the Dao of Space as well?
"Chase him! Even if he's comprehended the Dao of Space, there's no way he can travel such a long distance in such a short amount of time. He can't leave Biubo City!"
The surrounding demons chased after him. Gu Li, who'd remained in the courtyard, couldn't help but mutter to himself.
What was wrong with him recently? It was clearly an easy trick to see through, yet he'd jumped in without the slightest suspicion.
An Lu!
After learning that Ye Zichen had taken An Lu, he realized that he couldn't remain as calm and composed as before.
He desperately wanted to kill the person who'd taken An Lu, but little did he know, his plans were riddled with loopholes.
Gu Li shook his hands, narrowed his eyes, and chased after him. 1
Not long after Gu Li left, a pebble beneath his feet suddenly leaped up into the sky, then returned to Ye Zichen's appearance.
The Dao of Space?
Even scratching the surface of such a grand dao required a tremendous amount of time and experience. Even if he was a peerless, monstrous genius, he'd only been in the God Realm for a short time. He didn't have the time to study such things.
It was still the Seventy-Two Transformations.
While Gu Li and the other demon experts panicked, he took advantage of that moment to transform into a pebble.
"Dammit, that scared me to death."
Ye Zichen leaned against the wall and took a few deep breaths. From time to time, he stuck his head out to see what was going on.
He absolutely didn't dare use his divine sense. If he did, the Zi Family's demon experts would definitely sense it.
There were so many devil experts in the Zi family, so they would definitely sense it. At that time, they would follow the fluctuations and come over. Even if he had wings, he wouldn't be able to escape.
"There's no time to waste."
Ye Zichen calmed himself down slightly, then turned into a moth, which flapped its wings as it leisurely left the Zi family estate.
"Hey, just how many people did Gu Li bring with him?"
Ye Zichen flew for a while, then landed somewhere to survey his surroundings. He was less than a thousand miles away, but he sensed at least ten diviner-level demons searching for him.
Whenever someone swept past him with their divine sense, Ye Zichen would have to completely erase his aura and disguise it as a moth's.
It didn't seem like he'd be noticed in the short term, but switching between auras consumed too much divine power.
In his moth form, he couldn't replenish himself. Besides, even if Blue Wave City was a small city, he didn't know how long it would take for a moth to slowly fly there.
Just as he was pondering how to leave Greenwave City as soon as possible ….
"It's him."
Inwardly, Ye Zichen smiled, then flapped his wings and flew forward.
In order to find Ye Zichen, Gu Li's subordinates had wreaked havoc in Greenwave City. Countless peddlers couldn't even find peace.
Whoosh.
At this time, a Demon Race expert landed in front of the vendor's stall that was selling spirit herbs and spirit medicines.
"Have you seen this person before?"
The demon expert stretched out his hand, and a screen of water appeared in the sky. Ye Zichen's image slowly appeared on the screen.
The vendor was a fatty, but he was merely an earth supreme.
The demon expert before him was a diviner. Logically speaking, the vendor should've been terrified of a demon expert, but …..
He actually laughed foolishly.
"What are you laughing at? I'm asking you if you've seen him or not!"
