Chapter 224: Hiding from the Sky and Crossing the Sea
At this time, just as everyone in the martial arts arena was being fiercely eliminated, it was in an inn located in the northeast corner of Wanyan City.
Because of today's martial arts competition, most of the people went to join in the fun, and the inn that was usually full of people also seemed a little light.
The second floor of the inn was empty with only one table of guests, a man wearing a black gauze straw hat, and on the man's table was a black greatsword.
Although the neck and above were covered by black veil, it was obvious from the figure and dress of that person Qu Man that this was a woman.
The woman held a cup of tea in her hand, raised her head slightly and looked at the entrance of the palace opposite, under the black veil was a beautiful face, this person was Wang Qi.
Jiang Ming and Xiaoyu participated in the martial arts tournament together, and Wang Qi went to this inn near the palace to perform other tasks under Jiang Ming's instructions.
After a while, a group of people appeared at the gate of the Wang family's compound, and there were more than thirty people coming, led by a young man and an old man.
This is a group of ironclad troops, the team is very orderly between the marches, such an army can often be seen in Wanyan City, these are the defenders of the city.
And the two people who were the leader, Wang Qi, were also, one was the old man who had bought information in the Fang City before, as for the young man, although he had not met, Wang Qi could, this person was the eldest son of the city lord's family, Du Fang.
Of course, Du Wei's identity is fake, and the young man's true identity is that Situ Feng's disciple, but these outsiders are not.
Du Fang and the old man entered the palace with a Gan defender army, they came out not long after they entered, and when they came out again, Du Yu and the old man walked in front, and there were four people in the city defender behind carrying a big tripod to walk in the middle of the troops, and it was the prize of the conference that was planted in the tripod, Huoyun Lotus.
Although this martial arts tournament is a conspiracy planned by Situ Feng, but others are not, and now the martial arts tournament is already underway, and Huo Yunlian, who is the highlight of this event, has now been carried out by the defenders.
Although the preciousness of the Fire Cloud Lotus can make countless cultivators crazy, but now there are a large number of strong people gathered in Wanyan City, among which there is a giant force like the Heavenly Palace, under this kind of lineup, who would dare to rob the Fire Cloud Lotus?
Soon after the people of the city defenders left with Huo Yunlian, Wang Qi, who had been sitting in the inn, finally moved.
She put down two spirit stones on the table as a consumption fee, and then jumped directly through the window from the second floor and swept all the way to the front.
Wang Qi did not enter the palace, but went directly to the city lord's mansion in front, the previous city lord's mansion not only had strict guards, but also a city lord with the spirit saint realm, ordinary people could not get close at all.
But today is different, a large number of city defenders have been sent to maintain the order of this conference, at this time, there are only a few soldiers left in the city lord's mansion, and most of these soldiers' strength is in the realm of the spirit king, this kind of strength is naturally no problem for Wang Qi, she skillfully avoided those guards and entered the city lord's mansion.
After entering, Wang Qi immediately unfolded his divine sense to sense Du Zhan's position, since Du Zhan had finished strengthening the formation in the palace three days ago, he had not gone out in the City Lord's Mansion.
Since Jiang Ming's divine consciousness had also been detached from Du Zhan's body, Du Zhan had been following Jiang Ming's last instruction.
After the strengthening of the formation was over, Jiang Ming's divine sense remained in the palace, and he knew that Du Zhan would have a lot of flaws after leaving his divine sense, so in order not to be discovered, Jiang Ming's last order to him was not to go out at will after returning to the city lord's mansion.
Since all this is Situ Feng's conspiracy, Jiang Ming has no reason to let him go like this, he wants to take this opportunity to get rid of Situ Feng.
Situ Feng's plan was to run away with Huo Yunlian halfway through the competition, of course, Jiang Ming would not let this happen.
He had already told Wang Qi how to disarm the puppet array, and Wang Qi would go to remove the puppet shackles from Du Zhan's body and then inform him of everything.
Du Zhan, who knew the truth, would definitely go to the new City Lord's Mansion to inform everyone of the conspiracy of the whole matter, and by that time, all the forces would definitely go to Situ Feng's trouble after they understood.
Situ Feng has an extremely secret disguise technique, even if he is killed by someone as long as he can take advantage of the chaos to blend into the crowd, he can still escape his life, but although his life can be saved, it is inevitable to suffer a little.
And the reason why Jiang Ming went to participate in the competition was this, although Situ Feng's disguise technique was indeed very secretive, but if Jiang Ming could leave an extremely cold aura on his body, even if Situ Feng was disguised by Jiang Ming, he could sense it.
When Situ Feng is debunked, he will definitely be surrounded and suppressed by the major forces, under the siege of so many strong people, even if Situ Feng can use the disguise technique to hide, he will definitely be seriously injured, and then Jiang Ming will find Situ Feng with the induction of extremely cold qi, with the strength of him, Xiaoyu and Wang Qi, it is still possible to deal with a seriously injured strong man in the early stage of the Spirit Saint, so Jiang Ming deliberately went to participate in the martial arts competition.
After some exploration, Wang Qi finally came to Du Zhan's room, and she threw out a light and shot into Du Zhan's body, which was Jiang Ming's divine sense, which could be used to contact the puppet array in Du Zhan's body.
Then, Wang Qi flipped his palm and took out a scroll from the spatial ring, and then sealed the puppet array in Du Zhan's body.
The puppet array was pulled out, and Du Zhan, who was originally a little wooden, gradually regained his brightness in his eyes at first, and then his expression became relaxed.
The controlled person controlled by the puppet array can feel all the dynamics, but they can't react irresistibly because of the constraints of the formation.
Of course, he still remembered the whole process of being controlled by Jiang Ming at the beginning, and Wang Qi was now covered by a black gauze straw hat, plus there was such an obvious black giant sword behind his back, Du Zan immediately remembered what happened when he was taught by Jiang Ming in Fang City that day.
"It's you, you want to do it!" Du Zhan suddenly got up and retreated to the corner of the room, he was about to run, but he was stopped by a strong force.
With the power of Wang Qi Lingzun's realm, it was still very easy to control Du Zhan, but I saw that she directly pulled out the Netherworld Sword behind her and put it on Du Zhan's neck.
"A good man spares his life, I am the son of the city lord, as long as you don't kill me, I can give you the conditions......" Du Zan knelt directly on the ground and begged for mercy.
Wang Qi sighed bitterly when he saw it, the second of the city lord's family was really a soft bone who was afraid of death, and it was no wonder that his biological father and eldest brother didn't even notice such an ignorant behavior.
"I'm not going to kill you, I just want to tell you something." Wang Qi whispered, and as she spoke, she took off the black gauze hat on her head.
…………
After the fierce scuffle, the restless heaven and earth energy in the martial arts arena began to calm down, and after a fierce competition, the total number of more than forty people at the beginning was now only twelve.
Jiang Ming and the other eight people who received Situ Feng's attention were naturally among the winners, and the other four people were all elites.
In the corner of the martial arts arena, Jiang Ming and Qian Lei stood together, and opposite them was Bai Yu of the Heavenly Palace.
Although the two teamed up to deal with Bai Yu, Jiang Ming could only use pure physical strength, and Qian Lei was even more injured, not only did he not take advantage of the slightest advantage after a battle, but he was also forced to a dead end by Bai Yu several times.
If it weren't for the rules of the knockout round, I'm afraid that Jiang Ming and both of them would have been killed by Bai Yu, and this was still in the midst of other melees, not only was Lu Ming entangled during the battle, but Bai Yu was also besieged by others many times, if it was in the usual duel, Jiang Ming and Qian Lei would have been killed long ago.
"Boss, are you alright?" The game was over, and Xiaoyu also hurried away from other places.
The people who dared to come to participate in this martial arts competition were all elite children of various sects, and even Xiaoyu was entangled and couldn't pull away.
Although Qian Lei had also lived in Hidden Dragon Yuan for a long time before, Xiaoyu used to mostly show people in the form of demon beasts, and he also lived in the Warcraft Mountains and forests all year round like the Tyrannosaurus Rex, so Qian Lei was not clear about Xiaoyu's human appearance.
Qian Lei only had a demon beast by Jiang Ming's side, but he didn't know Xiao Yu, who had transformed into a human.
Jiang Ming shook his head slightly and then looked at the other side, at this time, Lu Ming also rushed to Bai Yu's side, and failed to kill Qian Lei in the knockout round, and Bai Yu and Bai Yu were obviously very unhappy.
"Ladies and gentlemen, congratulations on passing the first level of the knockout round, the next thing is a personal showdown, before that, you have a little rest!" That Situ Feng explained to everyone in the sky above the martial arts arena.
When Jiang Ming raised his eyes and glanced at Xiao Yu, Xiao Yu immediately understood.
During the melee just now, Jiang Ming had already contaminated Situ Feng's body with the extremely cold qi through the energy fragments in the air, so his task was completed.
No matter how clever Situ Feng's disguise technique is, the extremely yin and cold qi is different from any other breath, even if that Situ Feng is hidden, Jiang Ming can also sense it.
After Situ Feng finished speaking, many people were a little surprised after hearing his words, after all, everyone was no longer in the peak state after the first round of the competition, and it was somewhat unexpected to go directly to the next game.
However, there are only two people in this regard, Jiang Ming and Xiao Yu, there is no so-called duel at all, Situ Feng will leave this place with a large number of spirit stones and fire cloud lotus that he defrauded at this intermission.
"It's almost time......" muttered to himself in his heart, Jiang Ming turned his head to look outside the martial arts arena.
Going back a little further, when the fierce knockout match was still underway, it was located in the old city lord's mansion in the center of Wanyan City. (To be continued.) )
