Chapter 859: Saving Zhongzhou's Divine Artifact
For the sake of Moonfall Town, Ji Tianxing tossed for half the night.
When he returned to the City Lord's Mansion, it was already dawn.
The city lord's mansion was silent, and the guards were still heavily guarded.
The study where Yun Yao lived was still lit with dim light.
She was still busy in her study, hunched down at the desk to take care of her business, as if she were tireless.
Ji Tianxing came to the door of the study, and the guards guarding the door were about to bow and salute, and he hurriedly made a silent gesture.
Then, he silently entered the study and quietly walked behind Yun Yao.
Yun Yao was still concentrating on reviewing the dossier, and she didn't notice his arrival at all.
He showed a gentle smile, quietly stretched out his arms, wrapped his arms around Yun Yao's slender waist, and hugged her into his arms.
Yun Yao woke up suddenly, her body stiffened, and she subconsciously wanted to fight back.
But she reacted immediately, and after knowing that the person who came was Ji Tianxing, she immediately relaxed her vigilance.
"Tianxing, why are you here......? What are you doing?"
She turned her head to look at Ji Tianxing, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.
Ji Tianxing held her hands, rubbed her pretty face with his cheek, and said with a smile: "Yaoyao, you forgot to rest as soon as you were busy, so tired, I feel distressed when I look at it."
Honestly, did you work like this every day for the past half a month?"
Yun Yao replied hesitantly, feeling a little moved and warm in her heart.
But she was smart, and immediately saw the clue, stared at Ji Tianxing, and asked, "Tianxing, haven't you slept all night?"
Where did you go last night? I look at you, it seems that you have been in a hurry, and you have even started to fight?"
Ji Tianxing nodded and said with a smile: "Yaoyao, I didn't expect that these can't be hidden from you." You guessed it, I went to Moonfall last night. ”
"Moonfall Town?" Yun Yao frowned slightly, and asked suspiciously, "It's a remote town farthest away from Yuejian City, what are you doing there in the middle of the night?"
Ji Tianxing didn't hide it from her, and said to her with a spiritual sense: "Yaoyao, I have a surprise to tell you, this is what I just discovered.
The Heavenly Dzi I got in the Sea of Burial Stars is a very mysterious artifact, and its effect is very peculiar!
This artifact merged with my soul, and last night it was induced and guided me to Moonfall Town.
When I arrived at Moonfall Town, I found that a black-robed man had escaped from the town, carrying an unconscious young warrior. ”
Hearing this, Yun Yao suddenly showed a surprised expression, "The Heavenly Dzi has such a magical effect, that black-robed man must be a demon clan, and he wants to sow demon Gu for that young martial artist, right?"
Ji Tianxing smiled and shook his head, "I thought so at first, but he is not a demon.
After I chased him into a cave, I realized that he was actually a demon puppet, trying to devour the flesh and soul of that young warrior......"
He told Yun Yao what had happened.
After Yun Yao listened, she only felt incredible, and her clear eyes were full of excitement.
"Tianxing, the mending dzi is so magical, and it can also purify the demon Gu?"
"That's right!" Ji Tianxing nodded, and said with a smile on his face: "The Mending Heaven Bead is an ancient artifact, and no one knows how powerful it is and what other effects it has."
But what I can be sure of at the moment is that this artifact is very likely to be the nemesis of the Demon Gu and the Demon Race!
Although the evolved Demon Gu is very powerful, and the Demon Gu puppets are very difficult to deal with, I have the Heavenly Replenishing Dzi in hand, and I will be able to deal with them in no time!"
"Great!" Yun Yao was also in high spirits, and said excitedly: "Tianxing, if the Heavenly Bead is really the nemesis of the Demon Clan, we will soon be able to relieve the crisis in Yuejian City."
The hundreds of thousands of Li people in Yuejian City are finally saved!
Not only the people of Yuejian City, but also the people of Li in the hundred cities of Zhongzhou, they can finally get rid of the shadow of the Demon Gu!"
Ji Tianxing knew Yun Yao very well, knew that she cared about Li Min's common people, and had long guessed that she would react like this.
Because, he and Yun Yao have a lot of similarities.
This is also one of the reasons why they love each other deeply, cherish and rely on each other.
He held Yun Yao's hands and said in a solemn tone: "Yaoyao, if the Heavenly Dzi is really the nemesis of the demon clan, then of course everyone will be happy, and we will have a way to deal with the demon Gu."
But this is just my guess, and I need your help to verify my suspicions. ”
Yun Yao hurriedly asked, "How can I help you?"
Ji Tianxing said with a solemn face: "Didn't you arrest a lot of suspicious people and lock them up in the dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion?"
Yun Yao nodded and said, "That's right, those more than a hundred people are suspicious, but we can't tell who is the demon disguise, so we can only imprison them all."
Facts have proved that among the more than 100 people, there are really people in the disguise of the demon race.
Ever since I ordered those people to be locked up, there have been no demons in the city to sow demon Gu anymore. ”
Ji Tianxing showed a playful smile and said, "Okay, you take me to the dungeon now, I want to see those people."
If the Dzi is really the nemesis of the demons, they may be able to tell who the demons are. ”
Yun Yao showed an expectant look in her eyes, and nodded again and again: "Makes sense! We can't tell who is the demon in disguise, but it is possible to tell the difference between the Heavenly Dzi Beads!"
After we arrested the more than 100 suspects, many of their family members and relatives and friends ran to the City Lord's Mansion every day to plead and ask the City Lord's Mansion to release their relatives.
However, most of those people were powerful and wealthy families in the city, and City Lord Ye had to deal with those people every day, and he was already annoyed and haggard.
Tianxing, it would be great if you could tell who is innocent and who is the demon!"
With that, Yun Yao took Ji Tianxing out of the study and walked towards the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.
The wide but deserted backyard seems to be defenseless, but in fact there are many hidden sentinels.
The entrance to the dungeon, just under a stone sculpture in the corner of the backyard, was protected by the Tian Yuan Great Array.
Yun Yao cast a secret method to open the formation, and the base of the stone carving suddenly cracked, opening a gate.
Behind the stone gate is a dark passage that connects to a dungeon deep underground.
Yun Yao took Ji Tianxing through the stone gate and walked down the stone steps to the ground.
A quarter of an hour later, the two reached the end of the passage and entered the dungeon.
The dungeon of the City Lord's Mansion is very large, like an underground palace, divided into upper and lower floors.
There are two passages on each floor, flanked by rows of cells.
The entrance to the dungeon and each passage are heavily guarded and heavily guarded.
Moreover, the entire dungeon was protected by the Tian Yuan Great Array, and even if there was an earthquake or a strong fight, it would be impossible to destroy the dungeon.
When Ji Tianxing and Yun Yao entered the dungeon, the guards knelt down and saluted, and the commander of the guards personally accompanied the two of them, serving before and after the saddle.
