Chapter 338: The City Lord's Concealment

Get out of that living area.

Xiao Yi thought and walked back.

The name of the Mountain God Cult, he had heard.

As Yan Wuwei, since he has taken over the task to be completed near here.

Naturally, it is necessary to find out the situation here.

Regardless of it, after all, it was the first time he came to Wanshan County, and he didn't know anything about the Mountain God Sect.

Not much.

Xiao Yi met Fang Hu in the morning.

Fang Hu leaped around in the mist, trying to find some clues.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi shook his head.

In a big city, the people who really know it best must be the people who live in it.

"Archdeacon Fang Hu. Xiao Yi shouted and stopped Fang Hu.

"Oh, Captain Yat. Fang Hu leaped out of a certain mist.

"What's the matter?"

Xiao Yi nodded and asked, "I wonder if Chief Deacon Fang Hu has heard of the Mountain God Sect?"

"Naturally, I've heard of it. Fang Hu replied.

"That's our old power in Wanshan County. ā€

Xiao Yi asked, "Wanshan County, but there is a sacrifice?"

Fang Hu frowned and said, "Yes, yes, but that's just some customs of other sects." ā€

"As far as I know, before, the Mountain God Cult didn't do this. ā€

"About ten years ago, it was said that there was a godson of some mountain god sect. ā€

And then there was the sacrifice. ā€

"Every year, we catch a few living sacrifices, no more than 10 people at most. ā€

Wanshan County is extremely vast.

It was surrounded by mountains again.

Some large cities were even built in the mountains.

It is normal for ordinary people to believe in mountain gods, or to have some of their own customs.

Xiao Yi sneered, "Such nonsense, there are people who believe it?"

Fang Hu replied with a smile, "The letter is also normal. ā€

"In the eyes of ordinary people, the martial artists of the Cave Xuan Realm who can fly in the sky are already like immortals. ā€

Xiao Yi asked, "Do you believe Archdeacon Fang Hu?"

Fang Hu smiled and said, "I'm not an idiot, how can I believe it." ā€

"However, Captain Xiao Yi, you asked me this, but you are suspicious of the Mountain God Sect?"

"Not bad. Xiao Yi nodded.

"Impossible. Fang Hu shook his head.

"The sacrificial affairs of the mountain gods may be a custom, or it may be the belief of their sect. ā€

"Every year, the people who are caught alive are also wanted criminals. ā€

"For decades, they've kept the peace. ā€

"The nearby demon beasts, mountain bandits and the like have all been destroyed by them, and the wind is very good. ā€

Xiao Yi nodded, "I hope it's just my random speculation." ā€

"I'll wait a few more days, if I go missing, it will still happen frequently. ā€

"And we don't have any clues. ā€

"I can only go to the Mountain God Sect to check. ā€

Xiao Yat was always suspicious of the Mountain God Sect.

He had already concluded that it was man-made.

The two city guards who were suddenly taken captive in the fog today.

That person was able to easily kidnap people under his nose, and the method was so strange.

It must be a powerful warrior.

And those who can have powerful warriors must be big forces.

The Mountain God Cult happens to be located in the mountains not far from Misty City and several nearby big cities.

To put it simply, the Mountain God Cult is the closest major force to here.

Xiao Yat naturally pointed the finger there.

At this moment, an exclamation disturbed Xiao Yi's thoughts.

"Captain, no. ā€

Several figures flew quickly.

It turned out to be Zhou Ping.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yi frowned.

Zhou Ping and a few people are now injured.

"Ziyang had an accident and was taken away in the fog. Zhou Ping said anxiously.

"What?" Xiao Yi was startled.

Zhou Ping said quickly, "Sure enough, as the captain expected." ā€

"It's not a monster at all, it's someone who is doing it. ā€

Several other team members said, "Originally, we walked side by side with Ziyang. ā€

"I didn't expect to just enter a thick fog. ā€

"A strong man suddenly appeared out of thin air and tried to take a few of us captive. ā€

"Luckily, we reacted quickly and got out of the way immediately. ā€

"But that man is too strong, and we are invincible. ā€

Ziyang was captured by him. ā€

"It just so happened that Zhou Ping was patrolling nearby and met us. ā€

With the joint efforts, they escaped at the cost of being injured. ā€

"Hmm. Zhou Ping also said, "I can see it clearly." ā€

"After the strong man kidnapped Ziyang, he disappeared directly. ā€

"No wonder they appear so quickly and disappear so eerily in the fog. ā€

"Can you sense what kind of strength that strong man is?" Xiao Yi asked in a deep voice.

"I can't perceive it, it's definitely better than us. Zhou Ping replied.

"But, according to our estimates, it won't be much stronger. ā€

"It's probably around the Broken Ninefold. ā€

"Breaking the Nine Folds. Xiao Yi frowned.

Yan Wuwei, all of them are elite martial artists.

Although Zhou Ping and they have only broken the seven layers of the mystery.

But in terms of strength, it is much stronger than the warriors outside.

Although he was defeated by the strong man, he could still run for his life.

"Come with me to the City Lord's Mansion. Xiao Yi's face turned cold, and he turned around and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.

"City Lord's Mansion?" Zhou Ping was shocked, "Aren't you going to save Ziyang?"

Xiao Yi replied in a deep voice, "Do you know where Ziyang is?"

When the words fell, Xiao Yi was gone.

"Keep up. Zhou Ping was taken aback and hurriedly followed.

Seeing this, Fang Hu frowned, and immediately followed.

......

Not much.

The group came to the City Lord's Mansion.

Inside the Castle Lord's Mansion.

"I don't know how many of them are?" asked the city lord of Misty City.

"Yan Wuwei, Captain, Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi said in a deep voice.

"Yan Wuwei?" a hint of surprise clearly flashed on the face of the Misty City City Lord.

and a hint of imperceptible panic.

"What?" the city lord seemed a little nervous. Xiao Yi smiled playfully.

Captain Xiao Yi smiled. The city lord laughed twice.

"Recently, the disappearance of Misty City has caused me a headache. ā€

"You, Yan Wuwei, came to help. ā€

"It's too late for the lord of this city to be happy. ā€

Xiao Yi smiled faintly and said, "I'm afraid, City Lord, you can't be happy for the time being." ā€

"Because, under the next is preparing to leave. ā€

Leave?

Fang Hu was a little surprised.

Zhou Ping was even more frowned, not understanding what Xiao Yi meant.

But didn't ask much.

They knew the captain had a plan.

"Leave?" the joy on the face of the city lord of Misty City flashed.

Immediately, he looked anxious, "Why did you leave so quickly?"

"Our affairs in the Misty City have not yet been resolved. ā€

"Well, as soon as you leave, the people of Misty City will be panicked again. ā€

"However, Yan Wuwei has always had a heavy task. ā€

"If you haven't been here for a long time, you can't find out why. ā€

"It's normal to choose to leave temporarily, and the city lord can understand it. ā€

"Huh. Xiao Yi smiled and said, "The city lord doesn't have to worry. ā€

"This time I'm leaving, it's for the sake of Misty City. ā€

"Now, in my judgment, the matter here is beyond the scope of our ordinary team members. ā€

"I must go back to the royal capital in the next place. ā€

"Let the strong people of the royal capital come and investigate. ā€

"What?" the city lord was startled.

"No, no, no. The city lord hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Captain Xiao Yi is making too much of a fuss. ā€

"We are a trivial matter in the Misty City District, how dare we bother the strong man of the Yanwuwei Headquarters. ā€

"I think it's better to forget it. ā€

"Forget it?" The indifference on Xiao Yi's face faded in an instant.

In the next second, his face was extremely cold.

"As the lord of the city, he should care about the people of the city and ensure the stability of the party. ā€

"Now there's such chaos in your Misty City, and thousands of people disappear every day. ā€

"If it is someone else, it is too late to be happy when you learn that the strong people of the royal capital have come to help. ā€

"But you make more excuses?"

"I—" The Misty City Lord was speechless for a moment.

"Bastard thing. Xiao Yi's body was full of momentum.

"Still won't tell me the truth?"

"Lao Tzu's subordinates have lost a team member now, and I don't have time to talk nonsense with you. ā€

"Do you want me to lock you up in Yanwuwei Prison before you are willing to confess?"

"No... No... Can't. The city lord shuddered.

Xiao Yi's momentum pressed the city lord fiercely, and asked in a cold voice, "Did you already know about the disappearance?" ā€

"Is it the work of the Mountain God Cult?"

"Yes. The lord replied in a shudder.

"Why hide it?" Xiao Yi snorted coldly.

"I... I... I—" The lord of the castle hesitated.

Xiao Yi's eyes flashed with murderous intent, "You dare to hide it." ā€

"Bastard, I don't have time for you right now. ā€

"I'll be able to come back and settle accounts with you. ā€

With that, Xiao Yi turned around and said, "Let's go." ā€

Zhou Ping was stunned for a moment and said, "Captain, where are you going?"

"Mountain God Cult. Xiao Yi said coldly.

......
