Jing An stayed in the middle of the night throughout Judgment City before he casually found a hotel to stay in.

What, you want to ask him that he has no money on him, so what should he do when he goes to so many teahouses to drink tea and check out?

This question is not a problem for Jing An at all, as a top assassin, how can he be embarrassed to claim to be the top if he can't slip away silently?

He sat cross-legged on the bed and thought quietly, summed up the information he had gathered, and came to the following conclusions.

First, the Red Jade City Lord rarely comes forward, and his origin has always been a mystery.

Second, Mo Yuan's reputation is very stinky, to the point that everyone scolds him, but Li Lingtian is the opposite, very loved by people!

Third, the only people who could control the city guards were Mo Yuan and Hongyu.

The above is his harvest today, it seems to be useful, but in fact, it is useless, and even the [World Stone] that he is most concerned about has no news, but according to rumors, this thing is likely to be in the city lord's treasury.

"It looks like I have to go to the martial arts competition tomorrow to recruit relatives" Jing An weighed it for a while before making this decision, because only by participating in the competition and winning a complete victory can he contact the city lord and take this opportunity to find the [World Stone].

In fact, there are other ways, but it is too time-consuming and laborious, far from being simple and rude to participate in the competition to recruit relatives, besides, he is full of confidence that he can achieve the final victory, in this soul-based world, he is not afraid of any opponent, whether this opponent is a high-level professional or a master-level professional.

There was another reason why he took part in the tournament, and that was because Karn had warned him not to take part in it—the enemy had to listen to it the other way, and the more he didn't allow himself to participate, the more he had to participate!

The next day, Jing An followed the huge flow of people towards the Ruling City Lord's Mansion to converge.

The venue of the contest was on the square in front of the City Lord's Mansion, and when he arrived, it was already crowded, and there were so many people that he couldn't even see the ring in the middle, perhaps because he was relatively short.

Just when he was thinking about whether to squeeze in directly by brute force, a familiar voice stopped him: "Are you also here to participate in the martial arts competition?" ”

Jing An turned his head and saw that it was Zhicheng, and his image here was similar to that outside, which was easy to identify.

"You say 'yes', do you want to participate too?" Jing An asked curiously.

"Hehe, I just heard that the city lord here is a super beauty and want to see it" Zhicheng gave Jing An a look that you know, sighed and said: "I heard that many people from outside are ready to participate, after all, she is the city lord here, and with her help, it will be much easier to capture souls!" I don't have much chance of being such a master participating."

"Aren't the people on this street all souls, so do you need to look for them?" Jing An asked puzzled, according to his own understanding, except for these outsiders here, the rest should be souls, since it is just like this, why use it to find it?

"You're not a soul control master and don't understand the key here," Orichi shook his head, pointing to the bustling crowd and explaining, "You see that they are one person on the surface, and they are complete, but they are all fake, and they are what the [Dream] wants you to see." In fact, these people are all pieced together from soul fragments, and such impure souls cannot be used at all. Only those who were strong in their lifetime could maintain their soul intact, such as Li Lingtian, such a person is very difficult to find."

"Oh, so that's the case" Jing An nodded and asked curiously, "The world is very afraid of soul controllers, why is that?" Is it just killing people invisibly? ”

"This ......" Zhicheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, there is nothing that can't be said, it's just a little scary to say." You said that people are afraid that soul controllers will kill people invisibly, which is true, but that's just that the lethality of its spells is relatively large, and which class is not lethal? and the world was not afraid. In fact, the most fundamental reason why people are afraid of soul control is his signature skill, [Soul Control Technique]"

"Can the world be frightened, does it have any special effect?"

"Of course, the most terrifying thing about it is that the people who fall for this technique are the same as when they don't, and even the closest people can't see the slightest clue," Zhicheng said with a solemn expression: "Can you imagine that kind of fear? The relatives around you are unconsciously replaced by another person, and you are kept in the dark, and you treat him as a relative, trust him as always, respect him, this kind of thing just thinking about it makes people shudder! ”

"That's true" Jing An nodded sympathetically, this kind of thing is really terrifying, if any of his loved ones falls into the enemy's [Soul Control Technique], it will be difficult for him not to die! And this is not the most serious, the most serious is the leader of a certain organization, if he is hit by this technique, then this organization will become a toy in the hands of the spellcaster, and he can play as he wants, how can this not make the world afraid?

"The personality of the person who has been hit by the [Soul Control Technique] will change, right? Or is it a lifestyle habit or something, this should be easy to detect, right? Jing An said uncertainly.

"Of course, the situation you mentioned exists, and there are many people who have discovered that their companions have been infected with the [Soul Control Technique], but there must be a premise, that is, the soul control master who performed the [Soul Control Technique] has performed this technique on more than two people."

"You mean that if the soul control master only casts the [Soul Control Technique] on one person, there will be no such flaws?"

"That's right, that's what it means" Zhicheng said: "If you meet a soul controller in the future, the first thing you do is to escape, if you can't escape, try to kill him with one blow, if you can't do the above two points, kill yourself, otherwise you will wait to be tortured by him until you have a mental breakdown and then die!" ”

"Aren't you also a soul controller?" Jing An touched his nose, a little surprised by Weaving City's evaluation of the soul control master.

"Hehe, our Weaver family can only be regarded as half of the soul control master family, and it is far from the real soul control master" Zhicheng waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't say more, hurry up and occupy a position, the competition will start in a while"

"Hmm," Jing An nodded, absentmindedly following behind Zhicheng.

He didn't ask Ori Cheng about the Soul Controller on a whim, but to prove some of his guesses.

Now, he had basically determined that the main person who destroyed Qingcheng had a third person besides Mo Yuan and Li Lingtian, and he was also an extremely key figure among them, without him, Qingcheng might not be destroyed.

"If it weren't for this thing, maybe I would have died!" He touched the [Ethereal Spirit Stone] hanging around his neck and muttered to himself.

This [Ethereal Stone] was obtained by him from the head of the Perfect God Cult, and its function is to be immune to any soul control skills!
