"Fortunately, the worst-case scenario didn't happen. Nightingale was also subdued. As long as we do the right thing this time, there shouldn't be a problem," Chen Lie said.
Chen Tianchui nodded slightly and asked casually, "Which team from the Disciplinary Hall came this time?"
"There's no news for now. Nightingale is on her way to meet them. We'll know when she meets them."
"Report at any time!" Chen Tianchui ordered indifferently, but he was secretly vigilant. He hoped it wasn't one of the more troublesome teams. The secret under the Fog Cliff couldn't be exposed.
While waiting at the edge of the Fog Cliff, Lu Ye said, "You wait here. I'll go down and take a look."
"I'll go with you." Li Baxian stepped forward.
Lu Ye pondered for a moment and agreed.
The two jumped into the thick fog one after the other.
The moment they entered the fog, the surrounding light disappeared and was replaced by darkness. Lu Ye slowed down while sensing Li Baxian's position.
At first, there was nothing abnormal, but as the two dived deeper, Lu Ye found that his perception seemed to be suppressed by an invisible force. He couldn't sense Li Baxian's existence anymore.
He hurriedly urged his Divine Sense and immediately found that Feng Yuechan was right. The fog here had a mysterious suppression on Divine Sense. The deeper they went, the more obvious the suppression.
After diving for less than a hundred feet, Lu Ye's expression changed and he whispered, "Fourth Senior Brother!"
"Magnetic Field!" Li Baxian's voice came from nearby, sounding surprised.
It couldn't be helped. The spiritual power flowing in their bodies showed signs of being suppressed. This was clearly the work of the magnetic field.
Lin Yinxiu only sensed the magnetic field, but the flying sword didn't have Divine Sense. Although it was constantly suppressed, it felt even more vaguely than me.
Dust particles gathered in the thick fog, and the magnetic force field was emitted from those particles. Those particles were shockingly the dust of the Magnetite ores!
"We can go further up," Qu Rongmao said.
Simply having one's perception and Divine Sense suppressed wasn't too big of a problem. As long as one was vigilant enough, they could avoid some of the potential risks. However, the Magnetic Field wasn't the bane of cultivators. The higher they went, the less concentrated the Magnetic Field became. Once Lu Ye's Divine Sense was imprisoned, they would inevitably fall to the bottom of the cliff. Moreover, it wouldn't be safe at all, and even coming down would be troublesome.
The strange thing was that even Divine Ocean Realm cultivators were willing to enter that damned place.
Spiritual power was the smallest advantage of the Spirit Sea Realm, but that advantage was of no use here. With the existence of the magnetic field, such a place could not be considered a small danger zone.
"Go!" The Flying Sword shouted. Taking advantage of the fact that Qu Rong was obviously suppressed, it flew down.
Lin Yin Xiu followed closely behind.
A moment later, the two of them broke through the blockade of the thick fog and returned to the cliff.
When he landed, he saw a cultivator wearing a mask standing to the side. It should be Nightingale.
Qu Rong picked up the guard token at his waist and shook it. "Qu Rong, Fourth Squad of the Law Enforcement Hall!"
"Greetings, little one!" Nightingale saluted.
"Report his findings in detail!" Qu Rong ordered.
Nightingale then informed me of her findings. Yes, before I could finish my sentence, we suddenly heard cries of alarm and screams nearby.
Everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw everything. The source of the sound was not far away. Judging from the sound, something must have happened.
"Let's go and take a look." As the flying sword spoke, it soared into the sky and flew over.
Everyone followed closely behind.
Nightingale's cultivation was the highest. She was at the True Lake Realm, so she was at the front. While someone was paying attention to me, she raised her hand and tapped on her battlefield imprint to send out a message.
In the Chen family's small hall, the young elder Ling Qi raised his head and looked at Li Baxian. "Nightingale sent a message. This time, Fourth Squad is carrying out a mission. The leader is called Flying Sword."
Li Baxian's heart was immediately put at ease. "It's good that it's these teams …" He suddenly reacted and looked up. "What did he say the leader was called?"
"Flying Sword!" Ling Qi answered. "Lu Yiye from the Jade Blood Sect?"
"It should be me." Qu Rong nodded. "You heard that I joined the Law Enforcement Hall and caused a big disturbance in Haotian City."
The news of several teams of the Law Enforcement Hall gathering a crowd to fight had already spread throughout Haotian City. The communication between cultivators was extremely convenient, so it was natural that Ling Qi did not hear about it.
Seeing Li Baxian's expression, Ling Qi asked curiously,
"Master knows me?"
"You've seen him before." Qu Rong Mao shook his head. "Yes. My Lord has already ordered me to befriend this person at all costs if I meet him!"
Qu Rong was moved. "My Lord … thinks so highly of me?"
"My Lord has never considered!" Li Baxian looked excited. "That's really a godsend opportunity."
Originally, the Zhou family was almost exposed. Even if they made up for it beforehand, they would still be punished. But if they could befriend Lu Yiye according to the Lord's order, and even enlighten him so that he could work for the Lord … It would definitely be a small merit! At that time, they would not be able to make up for it.
"The show should be over soon, right?" Li Baxian asked.
"It's not bad. Eighth Elder's Chen Liemang was sent out. It's enough for us to report." Qu Rong replied. It was not that he felt pity for Chen Liemang. Eighth Elder had raised him for decades. That time, Chen Liemang's corpse would not be intact. With Chen Liemang's help, the strength of the eight elders of the Beast Taming School would be reduced. But that was something that could be done.
Nightingale had not reported whether there were any ferocious beasts here. If the Law Enforcement Hall found something, they would definitely leave. They would only leave if they did not find a way to report to the Lord. Then, the secret on the Fog Cliff could be preserved.
Although this secret could not be discovered by anyone, it was better to be safe than sorry.
"He personally went to invite Lu Yiye over. I led the team to kill the ferocious beasts and saved your Chen family. Your Chen family should thank him!"
Ling Qi naturally knew Li Baxian's plan, and immediately accepted the order. "Yes!"
At this time, Flying Sword and the others had not yet arrived at the source of the movement. Looking from afar, they saw a few figures running for their lives in the rear, shouting and yelling. In front of them, there was a giant python that was more than ten feet long chasing after them.
This giant python was very small, and its body was covered with green scales. The two sides of the snake's head were hidden and bulging. Its power was extraordinary.
From afar, they could feel its ferocious aura. If such a giant python took a step back, it would most likely turn into a flood dragon.
The giant python's abdomen was not bulging, and it looked like a human shape. Obviously, no one had encountered it and was swallowed alive. The few people who were still alive were scared out of their wits. In such a situation, they should have been running for their lives every year. However, those people were gathered together. Obviously, they were frightened and did not have the master of the Eight Gods.
The few cultivators' cultivation was also low, and they were all only at the Spirit Stream Realm. They could even escape by flying, and their speed was even slower than Chen Liemang's.
Just as the giant python opened its bloody mouth and was about to launch an attack, a sizzling sound suddenly rang out. Then, the flying sword slashed at the python's head one after another.
Qu Rong Mao took the lead.
The sword cultivator's killing power was the weakest, and the speed of the giant armor was also the slowest. In the blink of an eye, it chopped at Chen Liemang's head.
Sparks flew, and the green scales covering the python's body were extremely strong. They blocked the attack of the giant armor and did not cause any obvious injuries.
However, the force of the collision still caused the giant python to stagger, and the Spirit Stream Stage cultivators managed to avoid disaster by a hair's breadth.
Before the Flying Sword rushed down, it stepped on Chen Liemang's head. Holding the Pan Shan Saber, it stabbed at the python's head fiercely.
Under the saber, a light flashed, and the double-peak sharp spirit pattern supported it.
When the saber fell, Chen Liemang obviously sensed the danger. Its head shook, and its demonic aura surged, turning into a solid defense.
The saber broke through the demonic aura protection and stabbed under Chen Liemang's head. It went half a foot into the flesh, but it could not move back.
Chen Liemang was in pain, and the snake's tongue moved in and out of its mouth. It shook its head and wanted to throw the Flying Sword up.
However, Bi Lin, who was rushing over, grabbed its tail with both hands and pulled it forward.
The thirty-meter-long giant python's body was pulled forward, and it fell to the ground.
Lin Yin's sleeves floated in the air, and her giant armor appeared, turning into streaks of sword light that slashed upwards. Next to me, Feng Yuechan's expression was solemn, and she quickly formed exquisite techniques.
Xiao Xinghe also rushed over, and took out his saber. Taking advantage of Chen Liemang's momentary struggle to get up, he slashed at the python's body, causing sparks to fly and blood to splatter.
A ghostly figure suddenly appeared next to Chen Liemang's head. It was Chen Tianchui, and the short sword in his hand mercilessly stabbed at the python's eyes.
In one strike, the python's eyes were intact.
Chen Liemang was enraged, and it turned its head to bite at Chen Tianchui.
In an instant, a fishy smell assaulted Chen Tianchui's face, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Your body floated forward, and the Qurong Python's bloody mouth chased after you. It looked as if it wanted to bite you to death.
A tower-like body suddenly appeared behind Qurong Mao. Bi Lin's Qi and blood surged. She squatted slightly, and her center of gravity shifted upwards. It was as if special roots had grown from her feet. The giant snake's head slammed into me, and Bi Lin moved.
I suddenly raised my hand, and grabbed one of the fangs on Chen Liemang's lower jaw. My other hand grabbed the fangs on his upper jaw. With a roar, I suddenly spun, and the giant snake's body was shaken like a whip. It spun half a circle, and then fell heavily to the ground.
Dust flew everywhere.
However, everyone's attacks didn't stop. Lin Yin's giant armor, Feng Yuechan's techniques, and Qu Rong's and Xiao Xinghe's saber's attacks didn't break the python's body.
Chen Liemang, who was thrown to the ground, wanted to raise his head, but Bi Lin had already stepped on his head, and she swung her fist at his head.
Every time his fist landed, the small ground would tremble.
No matter how much Chen Liemang struggled, he couldn't break free from the restraints of Qu Rong's foot.
Chen Tianchui took advantage of the situation, and the short sword in his hand slashed at the Qurong Python's weak defense, stabbing it to his heart's content.
At first, the Qurong Python resisted quite fiercely, but gradually, its movements became louder and louder, until it finally stopped breathing.
As Bi Lin punched out, the head of the True Lake Realm Chen Liemang was split open.
