Zheng Tianlong stared at the two and scoffed. He waved his hand. "Get out!"
The group of black-clothed city guards marched out of the courtyard in front of the hall in unison, not making a single sound.
Zheng Tianlong stared at the two, especially at the young man on the left. His eyes shone like fireworks.
Zhao Haiyuan tapped twice.
The silent finger force landed on the bodies of the two youths, emitting a soft 'chi' sound. It directly broke through the two's astral energy defense and sealed their movements. Zheng Tianlong instantly sent out several palm strikes, sealing their movements.
Zheng Tianlong stared at the young man on the left and said coldly, "Zheng Xi is dead, right?"
Zheng Xi looked confused.
Zheng Tianlong gritted his teeth and said, "I will send you to the Spirit Mountain Temple and let you bathe in the Light of Buddha. I will make you wish you were dead and send you to heaven!"
Zheng Xi frowned. "Governor, what are you doing?"
"Do you know that this is a disciple of the Heaven Shaking Tower? Do you think you can hide it?" Zheng Tianlong pointed at Zhao Haiyuan.
Zheng Xi shook his head. "What did I do wrong that the Heaven Shaking Tower's disciple has to come?"
"Hehe …" Zheng Tianlong laughed in anger. He shook his head. "Fine! Fine! Wait until you enter the Spirit Mountain Temple. Let's see if you can still say such things! "
When Zhao Haiyuan appeared, Chu Li retracted his Omniscient Mirror and Heavenly Star Insight Skill. Even so, he could tell that Zheng Xi had a close relationship with Zheng Tianlong. It was possible that he was Zheng Tianlong's nephew or someone even closer to him, which was why Zheng Tianlong had lost his composure.
Zhao Haiyuan said coldly, "Governor Zheng, the Heavenly Demon is still here. Bring the Scribes of the Town Guards Residence."
"… Okay." Zheng Tianlong looked at Zheng Xi and brought him and Lu Yongzhou into the hall. He quickly composed himself and brought the Scribes of the Town Guards over.
Although the Scribes were quiet, they were not as well-trained as the Town Guards. They stood scattered and looked around carefully. Chu Li was also stared at by them.
Zhao Haiyuan was still looking at the sky with his hands behind his back. After a while, he pointed two fingers.
Two fingers followed by two finger energies. Chu Li was secretly shocked.
Now that he had hidden the Omniscient Mirror, he could not see the finger energy. He only knew that it was invisible and soundless. He did not even feel any danger. If it was a finger energy that could obscure the Celestial Intuition, he might not be able to dodge it.
He was even more afraid of Zhao Haiyuan.
Under the power of Zhao Haiyuan's finger, the movements of the two delicate maids stopped. Then, Zheng Tianlong stepped forward and sealed their acupoints.
Zhao Haiyuan waved his hand.
Zheng Tianlong dismissed the guards and maids with a wave of his hand and brought the two maids into the main hall. His face was as gloomy as water.
He never expected that so many Skyfiends would sneak into the City Lord's Mansion. It really made him, the City Lord, lose face. Moreover, such a mistake was enough for him to be removed from the position of City Lord and step down dejectedly.
Zhao Haiyuan said, "There are more in the city, come with me."
"Yes," Zheng Tianlong said solemnly.
Zhao Haiyuan left the City Lord's Mansion with his hands behind his back. Chu Li and Song Chengzhi did not follow. It would not be wise to do so. Looking at Zheng Tianlong's face, they knew that he did not want others to know about such a mistake.
Song Chengzhi brought Chu Li to his own courtyard. As soon as he entered, before his butt even landed on the stone bench, he said, "Chu Li, are you really going to destroy the Heavenly Heart Technique?"
Chu Li nodded.
Song Chengzhi said, "Are you willing?"
"I'm even more unwilling to give up my life. This Zhao Haiyuan is very dangerous, and the Stargazing Pavilion is even more dangerous, right?" Chu Li sighed and showed a helpless expression.
In fact, it was easy to destroy it. He could just hang it on the Life and Death Tree and it would be difficult for others to notice.
He was very confident in the Life and Death Scripture. He felt that even the Heaven Shaking Tower could not see through it.
It was said that the Scripture of Life and Death came from the Thirty-three Heavens, and the Scripture of Life and Death also belonged to the Thirty-three Heavens. Although it was only a legend, it still gave him great confidence. Unfortunately, he had never been able to thoroughly understand the Scripture of Life and Death, and had only touched the surface of it.
"There are six pavilions in the Heaven Shaking Tower. The Stargazing Pavilion is one of them. Oh right, the Stargazing Pavilion in the Lower Realm is also passed down from the Stargazing Pavilion." Song Chengzhi said, "Looking at Zhao Haiyuan's situation, he should belong to the Void Observation Pavilion."
"The Void Observation Pavilion …" Chu Li muttered and searched in his mind.
Unfortunately, he only knew about the Heaven Shaking Tower and not the Void Observation Pavilion. As for the Stargazing Pavilion, he had only heard of it.
"The Stargazing Pavilion here is not the Stargazing Pavilion in the Lower Realm. The Cosmic Power they cultivate is to guide starlight into the body and turn it into pure inner energy. Although it is not invincible, it is rare to find a worthy opponent." Song Chengzhi shook his head and sighed. "There is no way out after offending them."
Not only did they have strong martial arts, but they could also predict the opponent's movements. There was no way to escape.
Chu Li said, "So you should just destroy the Heavenly Heart Technique. You have to lower your head when you are under someone else's roof."
Song Chengzhi looked Chu Li up and down.
Chu Li smiled. "What are you looking at, Clan Leader?"
"I am not as good as you." Song Chengzhi shook his head. "Advancing and retreating at will, changing at will. As the world's number one master, it is really rare to be able to do this."
Chu Li said, "I was not the world's number one back then. Now, I am just returning to the situation back then."
"It is easy to advance but difficult to retreat. How many people can do that?" Song Chengzhi smiled.
If it was him, he would not be able to take this lying down. He would not agree to destroy the Heavenly Heart Technique so easily. Especially since the Heavenly Heart Technique could bring him so many benefits, how could he give it up so easily?
Chu Li said, "The Heaven Shaking Tower's status is so high that it is much higher than the Rain Master Hall?"
"They are aware of the heavenly secrets," Song Chengzhi said. "Moreover, they are independent and do not like to deal with worldly affairs. They do not care about worldly benefits, so they are trusted by everyone."
Chu Li slowly nodded.
"If he really has an order, do not disobey," Song Chengzhi said. "Otherwise, if he makes a move, we will not be able to stop him."
He could naturally sense that Zhao Haiyuan's cultivation level was far higher than his. It would be easy for him to take care of the White Dew Hall.
—
The moon was as round as a mirror and the moonlight was clear.
Chu Li, Song Chengzhi, Mo Heng, and Fu Tianlei sat in the main hall of the Town Guards House. Zheng Tianlong sat opposite them with a gloomy face. Zhao Haiyuan sat on the highest seat, holding a silver cup in a daze.
The main hall was so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.
After a while, Zhao Haiyuan put down the silver cup and said, "Tomorrow, the White Dew Hall will go to the Triple Dragon Mountain. Strive to clear the Triple Dragon Mountain in two days."
"Yes," Song Chengzhi said.
Chu Li did not say anything.
The Triple Dragon Mountain was located in the mountain range before the Crouching Dragon Mountain. It was the second last mountain. The foreign battlefield was close to the Outland. There were nine mountains in total. Previously, the Celestials and Asura fought outside the nine mountains.
The Celestials were losing ground and had already pushed to the last mountain, the Crouching Dragon Mountain. Even so, they were not paid much attention. They felt that the Asura could not attack the Crouching Dragon Mountain and that it was more important to deal with the Heavenly Demon first.
Now that they heard that the Heavenly Demon and the Asura were working together, the Elders Society finally paid attention.
Zhao Haiyuan said, "Go back and rest."
He got up and left with his hands behind his back.
Zheng Tianlong shook his head and did not say anything else. He closed fist saluted. "Thank you, White Dew Hall."
Song Chengzhi forced a smile. "It's our duty. Farewell."
He led Chu Li out. As soon as they left the main hall, they saw Zhao Haiyuan standing on the steps and looking at the sky. When Chu Li approached, Zhao Haiyuan looked at the night sky and said, "It's good that you were able to destroy the Heavenly Heart Technique in time."
After that, he walked down the steps and left.
