C728 Hell City
The suppression restriction set up by the five great saint-level masters forced the Earth Flame Tiger to the ground, unable to move no matter how hard it struggled.
It was struck by Huo Qianzhong again. Fortunately, Huo Qianzhong didn't take its life, so it was able to survive.
It roared unwillingly, its eyes filled with anger.
Huo Qianzhong sighed softly, "I will suppress you for a hundred years, and then let you leave on your own after a hundred years!
"You despicable and cunning human, my Beast King will never let you go... I will never let you go!" The Earth Flame Tiger roared.
With this incident happening, it was already powerless. It could only continuously let out unresigned roars.
"Junior brother, why don't we subdue it and let it become our Medicine Sect's sect protecting medicinal Spirit Beasts? That's not bad either!" A Saint voiced his opinion.
Huo Qianzhong immediately refused. "No, this might be the medicinal Protective Spirit Beast Big Brother Evil Monarch subdued to Ling Martial Nephew. Currently, Ling Martial Nephew might already be in grave danger. We can't do this anymore!
Huo Qianzhong already felt extremely guilty. If he subdued the Earth Flame Tiger again, he would no longer care about the past.
When the four Saint heard Huo Qianzhong's firm stance, they no longer forced him.
Immediately after, Huo Qianzhong went to the outer perimeter and called Huo Tang over.
The Fire Hall came forward and asked respectfully, "What do you need from Old Sect Master?
"How many people know that Ling Xiao has come to the Medicine Sect?" Huo Qianzhong asked.
Huo Tang shook his head. I don't know about this, I have to ask Xun Zheng.
Huo Qianzhong frowned and asked, "Who is Xun?
"She is the city lord of our city," Huo Tang said.
"Alright, go and announce it now. Ask Xun Zheng to return to our sect and become an elder. Don't send an elder to guard the city. If anyone asks about Xun Zheng's whereabouts, just say that he is missing. Don't reveal anything about Ling Xiao. Just say that you don't know anything about him. Do you understand?" Huo Qianzhong explained solemnly.
Huo Tang's eyes twitched. He bowed and said, "It's Old Sect Master. I know what to do.
He suspected that something had happened to Ling Xiao, but he did not dare to ask anything. He was sure that an existence at the level of Old Sect Master was not someone he could easily guess and doubt.
...
Three months' time could make many things forgotten.
The matter of Ling Xiao becoming the champion of the Elixir Association competition was rarely discussed again. Everyone in the family had left.
The Medicine Capital was still operating as usual. Nothing major happened.
What was worth mentioning was that the candidate for the City Lord of the Medicine Capital had been changed. This matter caused some discussion.
However, it quickly calmed down.
Everyone must have thought that those were just some movements from the upper echelons of the Medicine Sect. There was nothing strange about it.
The only thing that felt inappropriate was Ye Yunfeng, Liu Qun, Lyi Xue, and her master and disciple Bing Ruoshui and Yao Qingmin, who were staying in the Gu family.
It had been three months since they last saw Ling Xiao, and they were in a terrible mood.
In the main hall of Gu family's residence, a group of people gathered together.
"I can't wait any longer. I must go and find Xiao Yao!" Bing Ruoshui said loudly with a firm tone. Her delicate face became incomparably indifferent.
She had not been with Ling Xiao for long. Now that they were separated, she was worried that Ling Xiao would be framed by the Medicine Sect.
"Sister-in-law, I know how you feel. But where are we going to find our boss? Now that the city lord has been replaced, they always say that they don't know about this matter. The original City Lord also doesn't know where he is, but I believe that Boss will definitely be fine. Our boss is very strong, even a Imperial Rank wouldn't be able to tolerate him. He is protected by a super expert, and I think he must have something to worry about right now. He just can't come back to us! " Ye Yunfeng comforted him.
How could he not be anxious? However, he was facing a huge force from the Medicine Sect. They definitely did not lose anything. Moreover, he also felt that Ling Xiao should be fine. With a rank eight guard by his side, who else could hurt his boss?
"But we can't keep waiting like this," Lyi Xue said indifferently.
Yao Qingmin also shouted from the side, "It must be related to the Medicine Sect. That Huo Chen was beaten into a pig's head by the young master. He might have found someone to deal with the young master.
Ye Yunfeng frowned and looked at Liu Qun, "Uncle Liu, do you have any suggestions?
Liu Qun was the strongest among them. Ye Yunfeng had a reason to ask him.
Liu Qun thought for a moment and said, "Did you explain anything to Young Master before he left?
"It happened too suddenly. Boss didn't say anything to me," Ye Yunfeng said. At the same time, he looked at Bing Ruoshui.
Bing Ruoshui was Ling Xiao's woman. Could Ling Xiao have mentioned something to her before?
Bing Ruoshui shook her head and said, "He didn't say anything." After a pause, she suddenly exclaimed, "By the way, I heard him say that he will meet up with the military advisor after this matter is settled. But I don't know who this' military advisor 'is.
"Military advisor, how did I forget about this matter? I know the next step!" Ye Yunfeng thought for a moment and exclaimed.
Everyone's eyes fell on Ye Yunfeng. Bing Ruoshui asked, "Yunfeng, do you know who the advisor is?
"Yes, I know. Now that the boss is not here, we will go look for the advisor. The few sister-in-law are with the advisor, Uncle Leopard, and the others. I wonder how they are doing over there." Ye Yunfeng said excitedly. After a pause, he said," I will tell Elder Xing that if Boss comes back, he will be fine. Tell him we've gone to the military counselor, and he'll come to us. Moreover, all of the Sister-in-law have Boss's Jade Cylinder of Life. Is Boss alright? They must know. '
Hearing Ye Yunfeng's words, they looked at each other and nodded.
They were all considered Ling Xiao's men, and Ye Yunfeng was Ling Xiao's little brother. They knew that Ling Xiao had already made arrangements, so they naturally supported Ye Yunfeng's suggestion without hesitation.
After everyone had made up their minds, Ye Yunfeng went to Gu Longxing and told him about his departure. He asked him to wait for Ling Xiao to return and tell him where they were going.
Therefore, Ye Yunfeng brought everyone and left Medicine Sect unwillingly.
They knew that Ling Xiao's disappearance had something to do with the Medicine Sect, but they couldn't pose any threat to the Medicine Sect at the moment. The only thing they could do was to meet up with the others.
...
Hell City, also known as the City of Death and the City of Madness!
The death rate of this city is too high. Moreover, it was the closest city to Death Mountain Range, and the name of the city came from this.
The Death Mountain Range was the most bizarre and terrifying mountain range in the Central Region. At the same time, it was also a forbidden zone of life in the Central Region. Not even Imperial Rank experts dared to venture too deep into it.
Those warriors who weren't afraid of death never came out after entering the depths. Therefore, they were called the Death Mountain Range by everyone in the Central Region.
However, there were still many natural treasures in the vast outer area of the Death Mountain Range. This was also where many mercenary groups gathered. At the same time, it was also a place where disciples of the Black Devil Sect often trained. This was because the Death Mountain Range was close to the territory of the Black Devil Sect.
Originally, the Black Devil Sect had wanted to take the Hell City back to their territory. Unfortunately, those people who were the city lords of the city had died mysteriously within one to three years. The Black Devil Sect had also sent out Peerless Experts to investigate. Unfortunately, they didn't find anything strange here, which made the Black Devil Sect give up on the decision to continue sending people to guard this place.
The current Hell City was a place where mercenary groups and some evil people often stayed, and no one dared to stay here for long. Soon, they would leave.
They were all afraid of dying here for no rhyme or reason.
This city that had the most fights and had the highest mortality rate had a group of people that attracted attention a year and a half ago.
Because among this group of people, a group of people had come. I can't believe there are three of them. They were all the kind of peerless beauties that no man would be able to resist when he looked at them.
In the city, every man was not a good person. They lived their lives licking knives all year round. A boor like them naturally coveted these three beauties endlessly.0
However, all those mercenaries, raiders, and villains that didn't intend to lay their hands on these three beauties were slapped to death by their guards.
After this, no one dared to act impudently towards these three beauties anymore.
When they saw these three women, they would even bow their heads and ask, "City Lord's wife!
Because they all knew that these three women had men, and their men were the legendary "City Lord" that outsiders had never seen before!
They only knew that the City Lord's surname was Ling, and they did not know anything else. This caused them to be filled with curiosity towards this mysterious City Lord.
They really couldn't understand that there were still people who dared to station themselves in the City of Hell for a long time. They all sneered coldly in their hearts. This City Lord was probably afraid. He was also a short-lived creature, and they were all feeling sorry for the three beautiful women!
The City Lord's Mansion in Hell City was an ancient building built on a mountain. It was grand and magnificent, no less than the City Lord's Mansion of any major power. It looked mysterious and ancient from afar, as if it had existed for countless years.
It turned out that this ominous place had become somewhat lively. Many people were talking in the hall.
In the hall, there were three men and three women, one old man, two young men, and three top beauties.
The seat of honor was empty, and no one was sitting on it. It was as if they were waiting for the City Lord to take his seat.
"Counsellor, the Battle of Imperial Ranking has been over for more than half a year. Why are you laughing at him for not coming back?" An extremely plump Daoist nun in a Daoist robe asked the young man in white opposite her.
A beautiful and delicate woman that caused others to cherish her spoke up as well. "Right, military advisor. Why hasn't Young Master returned yet?
A noble woman wearing a foreign decoration just sat in front of the two women and looked at the young man in white. Although she didn't say anything, her eyes were full of doubt.
The young man in white waved the white paper fan and said with a faint smile. This is the reason why I gathered everyone here. I received the latest news from young master.
"Quickly say it!" The three women said anxiously at the same time.
