Chapter 997: Uproar
As panicked sounds came out, the originally silent mountain behind Tianmomen suddenly fell into an uproar.
Not long after, another large piece of light escaped from the light and came galloping.
Many demon sect monks dressed in black completely surrounded the hall specially used to store jade tablets.
Looking at the broken jade plaque, the scene exploded!
Many demon cultivators were shocked and horrified, and couldn't help but talk about it, and even some good-hearted people began to secretly speculate.
"Isn't this... Isn't this the soul card of Senior Brother Jiang? Isn't he the leader of Wusheng Palace? Why suddenly...!"
"Hehe! If you often walk by the river, how can your shoes not get wet!"
"Alas! I heard that Senior Brother Jiang is the number one killer with gold medals. His strength is almost second only to Yu Wenyuan. He has never failed to perform tasks for many years. Unexpectedly, he suddenly fell... ...!”
"Isn't that right? I heard that the senior management of our sect has placed high hopes on him and trained him as the future successor of Wusheng Palace! But now all the hard work has been wasted!"
"Who is it that dares to kill my Holy Son of the Demon Sect? How audacious!"
"However, given the strength of Senior Brother Jiang, looking at the entire world of Immortal Cultivation in the Jiuzhou Continent today, which master in the Golden Core Stage can keep him? Could it be that a strong person in the Nascent Soul Stage is secretly taking action?"
"That's not necessarily the case. I heard that the Shadow Saint was sent to the capital of Youzhou to perform a mission, but not long ago, the new city lord of Fengming Fairy City suddenly began to vigorously implement the ban on demons. I think there must be something fishy in this!"
"Could it be that the Holy Son's assassination mission failed and he was killed by Dao Sect monks instead? Isn't this impossible? Is there such a powerful figure in Dao Sect?
"I heard that the Lord of Fengming Fairy City seems to be... called Qin Tian...!"
..................
However, just as the demon cultivators were talking about it, a figure suddenly appeared silently in the empty air.
The person watching was wearing a large black robe and a face-covering hood. It was unclear whether he was a man or a woman, but the aura that was faintly exuded was as strong as the abyss and the sea, as vast as the devil. The world is ordinary.
Judging by the aura and pressure alone, the person who came here was at a high level of cultivation, at least above the peak of the mid-Nascent Soul stage!
And this person's true identity is the Master of Wusheng Hall who makes many immortal sects in the entire Jiuzhou Continent fear him, and countless monks change their expressions upon hearing this!
Seeing the visitor, all the demon cultivators couldn't help but secretly change their expressions, and quickly saluted respectfully:
"We have met the palace master!"
It can be seen from this that even the Demon Sect monks are as afraid of him as the master of Wusheng Hall is so powerful.
However, the man in black robe turned a blind eye to the salutes of the cultivators below. Instead, under the black robe that covered his face, there was a pair of dark and deep eyes, staring coldly at the broken jade token not far away.
There was also a hoarse voice, with a cold murderous intent, slowly echoing in the air:
"Interesting, but I have underestimated the Five Profound Dao Sect! If you dare to kill my beloved disciple, you will definitely pay for it with blood!"
"Where is the dead star officer? Come down the mountain immediately. I don't need to teach you what to do!"
....................................................
....................................................
In Youzhou, there is Fengming Fairy City.
In a quiet courtyard in the inner city area, Xiao Bufan, who was dressed in white robe, together with the Mangshan ghost and the Venerable Nanli, were gathering in the reception hall, as if they were quietly waiting for something.
For a while, the three of them drank tea and chatted, and the scene was quite pleasant. It was obvious that they had almost blind confidence in the Shadow Saint Son Jiang Yehan.
After all, so far, the number one gold medal killer has never failed.
No one has ever appeared in the world of immortality alive after being targeted by the Shadow Saint Son.
However, at this moment, a black stream of light suddenly flew from the horizon, wrapped in an exquisite ink-colored jade talisman, and quickly fell into the courtyard.
Seeing this situation, everyone in the field changed their expressions.
The Mangshan ghost envoy and the Venerable Nanli even praised with admiration on their faces:
"Yes, Fellow Daoist Jiang is indeed very powerful, and his efficiency is truly unparalleled!"
"That makes sense. It was rumored that the Shadow Saint was the most popular, but now it turns out that he is indeed well-deserved!"
"Yes, yes, you really have the style of the top sect of the Demon Sect! You are truly a role model for our generation!"
.....................
As he spoke, Xiao Bufan also looked relaxed. He couldn't help but take two steps forward to activate the Wanli Transmission Note, and then listened attentively.
However, in just a short moment, Xiao Bufan, who was originally calm, suddenly changed his face, as if he had discovered something terrible, and he couldn't help shouting in a horrified panic:
"What? This...how is this possible!"
Seeing this situation, the two deputy city lords on the side were slightly startled, and then said with curiosity on their faces:
"May I ask Fellow Daoist Xiao, why are you so panicked?"
"Dao Youyou, as the dignified young master of the Xiao family, how can he be so impetuous?"
.....................
After being stunned for several breaths, Xiao Bufan finally recovered from the shock and said in a difficult tone:
"The Shadow Son... has fallen!"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the two deputy city lords became stiff almost instantly.
After they came to their senses, both of them looked frightened and collapsed on the seats. The tea cups in their hands fell to the ground with a "pop" and shattered on the spot.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the venue fell into a deathly silence!
Although no sound was heard, it was easy to see how shocked they were at this moment from the horrified expressions on their faces and fearful eyes.
After all, only three people knew the purpose of Jiang Yehan's trip best. Therefore, it is self-evident what this result means now.
Who would have expected that the majestic Shadow Saint Son of the Demon Sect would be unable to defeat the unknown Qin Tian, and would even be killed on the spot?
It can be seen from this that how terrifying is the strength of this new city lord?
Thinking of this, one can imagine the fear in the hearts of the three of them.
He was even more afraid of Qin Tian!
So the Mangshan ghost envoy's face changed, and he couldn't help but speak first and said in a panic:
"This boy is so powerful. If we continue to stay in the fairy city, wouldn't we be lambs to be slaughtered? This... what should we do!"
Venerable Nanli from the Bixiao Sword Sect on the side was also as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, and he quickly echoed in a trembling voice:
"With that boy's cruel methods, he will definitely not let us go. How about we retreat overnight? Ask the sect for help by the way? After all, with the current situation in Immortal City, I am afraid that we cannot handle it!"
However, after hearing this, Xiao Bufan frowned, then sighed bitterly, and said with deep meaning in his tone:
"This game in the Immortal City involves a lot. I don't know how many big figures are watching behind it. With our mere Golden Core cultivation level, we are just chess pieces. How can we have any room to retreat?"
As soon as these words came out, the two deputy city lords turned pale, apparently gradually realizing something.
And with Xiao Bufan's eyes twinkling, he spoke solemnly again:
"Two fellow Taoists, please be patient and calm. The envoy from the Demon Sect has issued an order, instructing us to continue carrying out the mission. Strong men will come to assist us in the future!"
.............................
Deep in the Qifeng Mountains.
Within the Five Mysterious Dao Sect.
In the solemn meeting hall, four Supreme Elders gathered together, with a hint of astonishment on their faces.
As for Fairy Yun Xin, who was standing with her hands behind her hands below, she was shocked but couldn't help but feel worried secretly.
For a moment, the atmosphere in the venue was somewhat strange.
Mi Qianshang, who was sitting at the top, could not help but fall into deep thought while looking at the Wanli Sound Transmission Jade Talisman in his hand.
At this moment, Master Huo Jue, who was impatient and could not help but speak first, said hesitantly:
"Senior brother, is this matter... going to cause a big fuss? If the situation continues like this, we might start a war directly!"
