As usual, he maintained a certain distance from Miao Yi. This was his style.
Miao Yi was used to it, so he didn't mind.
Seeing that Bi Yue had returned, Murong Xinghua revealed a slight smile. They lived together in the Right Garden and also left their man. Naturally, the relationship between the two women was deeper. The difference between them in the past no longer existed. Furthermore, Bi Yue had already been kicked out of the Heavenly Court.
However, to Murong Xinghua's surprise, as soon as they reached the bottom of the stairs, Yan Xiu came up and stood behind Miao Yi as usual. Yang Zhaoqing made a hand signal, and dozens of people immediately rushed down from the city walls, surrounding Bi Yue and the four people.
The four looked at each other in shock, then looked at Miao Yi on the stairs and exclaimed, "Governor! What is the meaning of this? "
Miao Yi looked down from above, his expression calm as he stared at Bi Yue.
Even though he had already guessed that Demon Monk Nan Bo would come looking for him after escaping, so he evacuated Yun Zhiqiu and the others to a safe place, he didn't expect Demon Monk Nan Bo to make a move on Bi Yue. He didn't expect Demon Monk Nan Bo to be in cahoots with the remnants of the Ying family.
He didn't think about it before, but now that he realized it, Demon Monk Nan Bo finding the remnants of the Ying family seemed to be reasonable. It was completely understandable.
Yang Zhaoqing said, "Don't think too much about it. I just have some things I need to verify with you. Please cooperate."
As soon as he finished speaking, someone quickly went up to restrain the four people and took them away, leaving Bi Yue alone. Her transcendence energy was already under Miao Yi's control.
Bi Yue glared at Miao Yi, then spread her arms and said angrily, "Niu Youde, what do you mean by restraining me?"
Murong Xinghua was shocked. She looked at Bi Yue, then at Miao Yi, not knowing what was going on.
Miao Yi said calmly, "Murong, this has nothing to do with you. You can leave for now."
Murong Xinghua wanted to say something but hesitated. He wanted to ask about the situation and see if he could plead for Bi Yue. However, when the words were about to come out of his mouth, they were suppressed by Miao Yi's cold glare.
Even though Miao Yi usually tried his best to minimize the difference between them, and even though Miao Yi usually treated her as a friend, she gradually felt that the current Miao Yi was no longer the Miao Yi of the past. No matter how amiable Miao Yi's words and actions were, he would subconsciously exude an intimidating aura.
Being a Marquis, with tens of millions of elite troops under their control, and a vague trend of building up their own army, they were already one of the top forces in the Sky Court. All the big shots had to give them some face, and the era where they could be trampled upon was long gone. Even the Celestial Emperor had to think twice before making a move. Now that he was in such a position of power, some things that he had grown accustomed to had gradually seeped into his bones as time passed. Murong Xinghua gradually understood that no matter how polite and joking they used to be, they could no longer return to how they were in the past. Superiors were superiors, and subordinates were subordinates. Being friends between superiors and subordinates was just deceiving themselves!
Murong Xinghua silently cupped his hands in greeting. He glanced at Bi Yue and left in a flash.
"Niu Youde …" Before Bi Yue could finish her words, Yang Zhaoqing suddenly grabbed the air with his five claws and directly pulled Bi Yue over from the air and kept her into his pouch.
Miao Yi turned around and left. The three of them returned to the inner residence in the backyard.
"Milord!" Fei Hong, who had been giving orders to a few handmaidens in the inner residence, immediately left the handmaidens behind when she saw Miao Yi. She quickly walked over and greeted him with a smile on her face.
During this period of time, she had more or less found the feeling of a mistress in charge.
Miao Yi smiled and said, "I have something to discuss."
"Yes!" Fei Hong tactfully retreated and waved for the surrounding servants to leave as well.
Every time this happened, she would realize the difference between her and the real mistress. Miao Yi wouldn't hide anything from Yun Zhiqiu.
After entering a side hall, Miao Yi turned around and looked at Yan Xiu. Yan Xiu had also tossed a corpse to the ground. It was Tian Yuan's corpse.
Miao Yi walked up to take a look and nodded. He sighed and said, "That's right. It's Tian Yuan. Forget it. You can't be blamed for this. It happened too suddenly! Oh right, tell me what happened in detail. "There were some things that couldn't be explained in detail through Xing Ling.
"At the time, we were lying in ambush in the clouds. When we received the Blue Moon Protector's notice, we immediately made our move. We didn't expect the other party to have so many troops lying in ambush. I led a thousand men and launched a surprise attack from the sky to intercept them …" Yan Xiu recounted the situation in detail.
Yang Zhaoqing's heart skipped a beat as he listened. He realized that Yan Xiu and Yan Beihong were quite ferocious. They clearly knew that it was the infamous Demon Monk Nan Bo, and yet they still dared to pursue him!
Miao Yi's face tensed up as well. Fortunately, he had been a little more careful before this. He had assigned some Hell Mantises to Yan Xiu and made more preparations. Otherwise, he would have been in big trouble this time. Yan Xiu would have either fallen into the enemy's hands or lost his life. Yan Xiu had too many secrets about him. At the very least, Yan Xiu knew the way to enter and exit the small world and Purgatory.
After he finished explaining the situation, Yan Xiu presented a storage bangle with both hands and said, "Milord, the people are all in here. It was my incompetence that caused us to lose two thousand elites."
"You have done well in this matter. It's already a great achievement that you were able to escape unscathed. Not to mention, you managed to capture so many captives!" Miao Yi consoled him. He took the storage bangle and examined it before asking, "These people were under the control of Demon Monk Nan Bo, and now they're under your control. Can you help them regain their consciousness?"
Yan Xiu replied, "I don't know. I've never tried. However, before they lost control of their minds, I was already able to control them. Their brains shouldn't have suffered any damage, so I should be able to give it a try. If everything is normal, I can use my technique to erase their memories from the time of the incident. That way, I won't have to worry about them leaking the secret. At the very least, I can save some of them. "
Yang Zhaoqing was secretly shocked as he listened. He didn't expect the Yin Soul Yang Art to be so powerful. He had heard that once this art was cultivated to a certain level, one could even control reincarnation. Yang Zhaoqing didn't know if that was true or not. At the same time, he was deeply moved. Back then, when Yan Xiu had chosen to cultivate the Yin Soul Yang Art, he had thought it was inconceivable. Now that he looked at it, it was hard to tell whether this was a blessing or a curse.
"Then I'll give it a try when I get back." Miao Yi nodded his head in agreement. He then furrowed his brows and said, "This Bi Yue seems quite normal."
Yan Xiu said, "In short, according to what those four people said, Bi Yue should have come into contact with the demon monk Nan Bo. I don't know if she was controlled or not. I'm just worried that something might go wrong, so I informed Milord in advance to make preparations."
Miao Yi silently pondered. Bi Yue's trip this time was obviously premeditated by the demon monk Nan Bo. It definitely wasn't as simple as just a meeting. He then asked, "You also know about this. Is there any way to verify it?"
Yan Xiu replied, "Milord, the demon monk's control method is quite brilliant. It's far from what I can compare to. What I need the help of a transcendent artifact to do, he can do without making a sound. So I don't dare to be certain. I can only give it a try."
"Then give it a try." Miao Yi tilted his head towards Yang Zhaoqing and gestured.
Yang Zhaoqing immediately summoned Bi Yue from the beast sack.
"Niu Youde …" Bi Yue roared at Miao Yi as soon as she appeared.
Yan Xiu dodged and slapped the top of Bi Yue's head with his palm. Bi Yue immediately rolled her eyes and didn't move. She immediately sat cross-legged on the floor with her eyes closed.
Yang Zhaoqing put away Tian Yuan's corpse. With a wave of his hand, he invoked his arts to close the doors and windows. He and Miao Yi retreated to the side to watch.
The Yang energy on Yan Xiu's body gradually dissipated and gradually turned into a dense Yin energy. The sharp nails on his five fingers were clearly growing longer. The Yin energy in the room whistled with a hint of ghost weeping. Yan Xiu's long hair and clothes fluttered without any wind. His five claws suddenly tightened and Bi Yue's beautiful hair that was coiled up immediately burst open.
The black energy that rolled out from Yan Xiu's palm gradually gathered and twisted. Like a fierce little snake, it began to drill into Bi Yue's mouth, nose, eyes, and ears.
Witnessing this scene, Miao Yi and Yang Zhaoqing subconsciously looked at each other.
"Ugh …" Bi Yue seemed to have touched something. Sitting cross-legged on the floor, her body trembled and let out a muffled groan. She had the tendency to struggle but was firmly held down by Yan Xiu and couldn't move.
After a while, as the few fierce little snakes retracted from Bi Yue's head and retracted back into Yan Xiu's palm, Bi Yue's trembling body finally calmed down.
Withdrawing his hand, Yan Xiu nodded towards Miao Yi and said, "Milord, she is indeed being controlled. Someone has done something to her brain."
Miao Yi said in a low voice, "Let's see if we can remove it for her!"
Yan Xiu nodded. With a flip of his palm, he grabbed the Soul Summoning Banner that was emitting a dense black energy. With a thump, the banner swayed slightly and suddenly shot out a black light, hitting Bi Yue's head. This black light was different from the ones he usually used. It was like a black beam of light directly shining on Bi Yue's head. There was no gap between the two.
After a while, the beam of light gradually retracted. The end of the beam of light connecting to Bi Yue seemed to have turned into five small hands. It seemed to be dragging something from between Bi Yue's eyebrows, temples, the back of her head, and the top of her skull.
Soon, golden spots of light appeared in these five areas. As the five small hands dragged, they dragged out something that looked like golden threads.
Bi Yue, who was sitting cross-legged, was also trembling.
At first, the five small hands were dragging it very smoothly. After dragging it out for about an inch, the golden threads seemed to be wrestling with the five small hands. Bi Yue's face was filled with pain.
"Ah …" In the end, Bi Yue couldn't help but let out a mournful scream. It seemed like she was in unbearable pain. She wanted to struggle but was suppressed by Yan Xiu's five claws.
The two onlookers didn't know why Yan Xiu didn't control Bi Yue's emotions and let her suffer so much. However, they believed that Yan Xiu must have a reason for doing so. Yang Zhaoqing quickly left the scene and went out to warn the people outside not to come close no matter what they heard before returning.
After wrestling for a while, the golden threads seemed to be entangled with something in Bi Yue's head. Yan Xiu obviously didn't dare to use force. His face was full of caution. The Soul Summoning Banner waved again. The beam of light branched out one after another and inserted into Bi Yue's head. It seemed like they were helping to capture something.
The effect was very obvious. The five golden threads began to be pulled out of Bi Yue's head. The small hands dragged the golden threads out and took turns to enter Bi Yue's head. It seemed like they were constantly removing the entanglement in Bi Yue's head.
After two hours, the five golden threads, which were three meters long, were finally completely pulled out of Bi Yue's head.
Bi Yue's scream also became hoarse. Yan Xiu's five claws let go of her. Bi Yue fell to the ground. Her clothes were drenched as if she was fished out of the water. Her face was pale and bloodless. She had already fainted.
Yan Xiu didn't say anything. The two onlookers didn't want to help either. They continued to watch the five golden threads being entangled with the small hands.
The golden threads that were like worms seemed to want to escape the capture. Only when the small hand grabbed them from head to tail did the beam of light slowly retract, completely absorbing the five golden threads into the Spirit-summoning Flag.
"Pfff!" Unexpectedly, Yan Xiu spat out a mouthful of blood. His body swayed and he held onto the Soul Summoning Banner to prevent himself from falling.
Somewhere in the starry sky, Xiong Qi also inexplicably spat out a mouthful of blood.
