"Bang!"
The door was pushed open, and the innkeeper rushed in. He shouted, "Not good, those bandits are killing their way into the city. They said that they want to do the last job tonight. They are very strong, and all of them are Yuanying Divine Lord. I'm afraid that the patrolling guards won't be able to stop them. Everyone, hurry and escape! "
Everyone panicked. Xue Lishuang was the strongest among them, but he was only at the late-stage Core Formation realm. However, the enemies were all Yuanying Divine Lord.
The innkeeper urged again, "Everyone, hurry! There are already inns that have been breached. They will be here soon. "
Xue Lishuang and the rest ran out of the room and saw that there was indeed an intense battle in the sky above the city. Those Yuanying Divine Lord were shouting, "It's only the Shadow Tribulation clansmen! If you don't want to die, scram! "
The patrolling cultivators were at most in the Core Formation realm. They were not in the mood to fight. They spat out their magic treasures and made a show of fleeing.
Xue Lishuang looked at the pitch-black swamp forest outside the city and said anxiously, "Where can we escape to? The swamp forest is filled with danger. Without a map, we will die before the bandits can kill us! "
The innkeeper hurriedly said, "Don't worry, I have a map here. I'll give it to you. If you follow the map, you will reach the Gengearth Demon Sect's mountain gate. You will be safe there."
Xue Lishuang and the rest had stayed here for more than a month, and they got along well with the innkeeper. They knew that the innkeeper was a kind person, so they did not suspect him.
"Thank you, innkeeper. We will repay your kindness in the future. Also, those carts of goods …"
The innkeeper said anxiously, "Don't worry, I will help you look after the goods. Let's go, or it will be too late!"
"Let's go." Xue Lishuang held the jade slip and checked the route. He led the group into the dense forest.
Just as they disappeared into the darkness, they saw the innkeeper fall to the ground, and a translucent woman's figure floated out from his body.
"Haha, my Phantom Devil Sect is the best at deceiving people. Those Shadow Clan fools didn't suspect us at all. Haha." The woman laughed and disappeared, leaving behind the innkeeper's corpse.
The ones who escaped into the jungle were all from the Shadow Clan. The bandits all shouted that they were only from the Shadow Clan. As for the other cultivators, the less trouble there was, the better. Who would want to escape with the Shadow Clan?
Huang Shishi also followed them. She was also deceived by the boss, but after running for a while, she felt that something was wrong.
After all, she was a perfected Yuanying Perfected Lord. Although the Phantom Demon Sect was good at controlling corpses, Huang Shishi, who was a perfected Yuanying Perfected Lord, could still sense that there was something wrong with the boss's spiritual power.
Therefore, she released her Divine Sense and immediately discovered that the innkeeper was dead.
"Brother Xue, there's something wrong with that boss." Huang Shi Shi followed Xue Li Shuang and said.
Xue Li Shuang, who was running in the forest, saw Huang Shi Shi and was stunned. He thought to himself, "What is a mortal like you doing?" Aren't you dragging us down?
However, her husband saved her sister, so it wasn't convenient for her to go back now. Therefore, Xue Li Shuang said, "Sister-in-law, there will be a swamp soon. As a mortal, you can't fly. Later on, we will use a flying artifact."
Huang Shi Shi smiled bitterly. What kind of look was this kid giving her? I've already released my Yuanying cultivation, and you can't tell?
Huang Shi Shi said again, "Brother Xue, I'm also a cultivator. My Divine Sense discovered that the innkeeper is dead. Therefore, the person who lured us out just now might not be the real boss."
Only then did Xue Li Shuang notice that Huang Shi Shi was actually a cultivator. Moreover, her cultivation was much higher than his. She was a Yuanying Divine Lord.
He was elated. However, he immediately thought, 'What's the use of a Yuanying Divine Lord?' Those bandits had many Yuanying Divine Lords!
Xue Li Shuang said, "So sister-in-law's cultivation is so high. That's great … But I think we should continue forward. It's not safe to go back. Those Yuanying Divine Lord are chasing us. I'm afraid that before we reach the city, we will meet them."
At this time, they had already arrived at the edge of the swamp. Everyone threw out their artifacts and flew at a low altitude. They weaved through the dense forest to prevent being discovered by the bandits.
Huang Shi Shi felt that what Xue Li Shuang said made sense. If they were to go back now, they would probably meet those Yuanying bandits.
She followed Xue Li Shuang and thought for a while before sending him a voice transmission, "We can fly forward, but in order to not fall into the bandits' trap, I think it's better not to fly according to the route he gave us."
"Sister-in-law's reminder makes sense."
Xue Li Shuang deliberately avoided the route on the jade letter. The direction was still the same, but the route was not the same.
In the dark forest, there were all kinds of flowing lights flashing across the swamp. On each flowing light stood a figure.
While flying, Huang Shi Shi constantly scanned the front with her spiritual sense. Finally, she sensed something.
"Five bandits are in front. At the same time, there are also some Shadow Clan members trapped by the array." Huang Shi Shi reminded.
"Okay, let's go."
In fact, Huang Shi Shi was reminding him to change the route. However, the Shadow Clan members were relatively united and liked to act bravely. Moreover, they heard that the other party only had five people, so they all wanted to try and save the other Shadow Clan members.
In order to prevent being discovered by the other party, they changed out of their flying artifacts and used their flying techniques. They silently approached the front.
Not long after, they saw a large piece of dry ground in front of them. Two arrays rose from the ground. The white light from the arrays illuminated the angry faces of the people inside the arrays.
Inside the two white arrays, there were a total of fifteen Shadow Clan members and six cultivators. They were trying their best to attack the inner walls of the arrays, wanting to break through the arrays and rush out.
Outside the formation, there were five people dressed in black tights.
A guy who spoke quickly laughed, "Don't waste your efforts. Do you think my Mother and Child Chain Array is something you can break? Just wait for your death! "
A cultivator inside the array roared, "Who the hell are you? I am the Imperial Female Demon Sect's disciple, Chen Jian! Quickly let us go. Otherwise, my Honorable Master Qing Liewei Divine Lord will not let you go! "
Huang Shi Shi looked at the trapped Core Formation cultivators. She had seen them before. They were the ones who persuaded Wu Tian's dao companion to leave last time. Presumably, this time, they also wanted to persuade the Shadow Clan woman to become Qing Liewei Divine Lord's cultivation furnace. However, they were also trapped together.
A hoarse voice laughed, "So what if you are Qing Liewei Divine Lord? We just said that we will only kill the Shadow Clan members. How can you blame us for following you to your deaths? "
That Chen Jian continued, "Fellow seniors, my sect's Qing Liewei Divine Lord is currently cultivating the Imperial Female Ascension Devil Art. There is already a Shadow Clan woman here who has agreed to go with us. So please be magnanimous … When we return to the sect, I will definitely report to the Sect Master. Maybe the Sect Master will be happy and accept your sister's daughter. Everyone can ascend together. What do you think?"
