At the same time, the two of them noticed a slight abnormality—the mana sent by the Qiankun Bag suddenly split in two, touching them separately.

But it had no harmful effect, like a breeze blowing.

The guest on the left, ignoring everything else, coldly asked, "Was it one of you who killed that person just now?"

Huang Yingying trembled with fear.

Wu Jinliang remained silent, watching the faces of the two formidable enemies simultaneously change before they became motionless, leaving only gurgling sounds from their throats. He then rubbed his nose and sneered, "What if I killed him? Did you really think you could intimidate me?"

What? Huang Yingying was stunned, thinking he must have misheard.

Wu Jinliang abruptly pulled him up from his kneeling position, flipped his hand, and stuffed a knife into his hand, raising his chin, "Go, cut them up."

Clang, the knife fell directly to the ground in fear.

Huang Yingying cried on the spot. He had seen these two people before at the Divine Mountain and knew they were someone's trusted aides, some of the rare human monks from the Divine Mountain, and he didn't dare provoke them, "Little Gao, Mr. Gao, if we must die, can we die peacefully, stop tormenting me, I can't take it anymore, I, ah..."

Before finishing his words, Wu Jinliang grabbed the iron chain and swung him over.

Bam, Huang Yingying slammed into the other person and fell to the ground, staggering back two steps, finding himself unharmed, while the two remained standing like stone statues. He wasn't stupid, realizing something was amiss.

"I've used the immobilization skill to immobilize them, catch the knife!" Wu Jinliang kicked the knife on the ground, sending it flying towards Huang Yingying.

Huang Yingying instinctively caught it.

Wu Jinliang continued, "This is not the place to linger, I don't have time for chit-chat, you have until the count of five. Either you kill them, or I kill you. One, two, three..."

Did Huang Yingying have a choice? Having witnessed him killing without blinking, he dared not think he was joking. He quickly mustered the courage, swung the knife, and lunged left and right, wildly slashing at the two pursuers.

Cut into pieces, yet due to the immobilization, they remained intact, not collapsing.

"Enough." Wu Jinliang called out, and passed swiftly, taking the knife from Old Huang.

Recovering, Huang Yingying looked at the 'lined' corpses, laughing bitterly, "My hands are already stained with City Guard blood, yet you still push me to this?"

Wu Jinliang chuckled, teasing, "Old Huang, this time is different."

From the current situation, the person he asked him to kill earlier was a traitor in Dazhi City, more willing to turn back, but the ones he just asked Huang Yingying to kill were official ones.

Based on their cultivation, he knew their origins were extraordinary. With this opportunity, shouldn't he let Old Huang dirty his hands once more?

Since Chun Tian had agreed to temporarily spare Old Huang's life, there were some things Chun Tian didn't need to articulate further, as he already knew what to do.

As for why it was different, he was now too lazy to explain, waved his hand, and the wall exploded open, with three Magical Treasures flying back, then he used the Earth Escape Technique to bury this space.

Then he secretly retrieved the immobilized Qiankun Bag and lifted the immobilization skill on the two corpses.

Afterwards, he ordered the still bewildered Old Huang to continue running like a worker.

This time he was much more composed, believing the sight of these two corpses would frighten anyone trying to pursue him using the same method...

A hole appeared on the grassland ground with a rumbling sound, and Po Yuan leaped out, attracting the searching personnel's attention.

Meeting face to face like this, Po Yuan realized while walking down the main road that this was where Fan Wuzhe previously found and disposed of items.

In other words, this was the killer's escape route after meeting, the route his two assistants attempted to pursue was indeed the killer's escape path.

He departed after fruitlessly, flashed his frame into the sky, flying towards the entrance he just came from.

In the sky, many people were driving Wind Scale, crisscrossing, surveying the land...

Within the mountain fortress, City Lord Li Xianghong filled with gloom, standing in the dark prison before the large corpse of a plum blossom deer—it was Mei You's revealed true form, bleeding from seven apertures.

The female attendant responsible for the interrogation narrated how Mei You suddenly died from poison.

White Qiru, who participated in the interrogation, looked grim. Mei You answered everything ambiguously, then abruptly succumbed to poison...

Lou Xiu, seemingly freed yet still under watch, stood on the city wall gazing intently.

He poured out everything voluntarily, confessing the situation of gathering various people, but he followed the usual course, blaming everything on Mei You.

Even if Huang Yingying is located, he didn't worry, as he didn't show his face in Chao Yue Hall nor spoke nonsense, the only one who took his orders was Mei You, and Huang Yingying could only point at Mei You...

On a mountain overlooking the sunset, a streak of light descended; Wu Jinliang and Huang Yingying landed on the summit, both relieved.

Huang Yingying remained in disarray.

They had already left Dazhi City territory.

In the rosy sunset, Wu Jinliang took out the Mother-child Talisman to assure Shi Chun, giving detailed accounts of unforeseen situations.

In the library, Shi Chun relaxed, sending a message to Wu Jinliang to quickly identify 'Death Refusing Incense' among A Xun's possessions.

Afterwards, he could work peacefully, organizing disarrayed books, and seeing the second sister Dong Liangyu upstairs, his face displayed a free smile, even voluntarily nodding with a smile.

He was leaving, wouldn't stay long, after confirming the target, he'd bid farewell never to see again, fading into the long years.

It was due to a woman's keen intuition, second sister Dong Liangyu was secretly puzzled.

Not only her, third sister Dongliang Ying at the lobby counter also noticed an anomaly.

At dusk on the grassland, a huge pit surrounded by many people appeared, with some inside too.

City Lord Li Xianghong descended from the sky, queried those at the pit, learned Lord Po Yuan was inside, and flew directly within.

At the pit's bottom, amidst the light of Sandal Gold Flame Energy, Lord Po Yuan was facing the wall, with two corpses embedded in the soil wall.

He hadn't heard from his two subordinates for long, sensed something was wrong, so he traced their route, only to uncover this scene.

Having verified the cause of death, he dared not pursue further due to the peculiar death.

He didn't retrieve the bodies lightly; taking them out would cause them to shatter.

Li Xianghong, familiar with his two aides, was shocked, and when investigating the cause of death with spells, she was increasingly surprised, "How could this happen?"

Po Yuan calmly stated, "No signs of battle, if there was a clash in the Earth Immortal Realm, people above would definitely hear it. There's only one possibility: either the opponent's cultivation is so high they can easily crush, or it's due to a Magical Treasure. Observing their death, it appears to be instantaneous, hence the corpses remain intact."

Li Xianghong hesitated, "What Magical Treasure could cause such injuries? They seem cut by a knife."

Po Huang: "The killer uses the 'Earth Escape Technique', within Dazhi City, do you not know who uses the 'Earth Escape Technique'?"

Li Xianghong's eyes showed hesitation.

Po Huang suddenly fixed his gaze on her, "Do you have a suspect?"

Li Xianghong slightly shook her head, "Within Dazhi City, currently, the only known user of the Earth Escape Technique is the missing Huang Yingying. However, his cultivation hasn't reached the High Martial threshold, how could he possibly kill your aides?"

"Given their cultivation, comparing the underground travel distance, it can be inferred the killer's escape speed using the Earth Escape Technique wasn't fast, aligning with what you said about Huang Yingying's cultivation. If it really was him, it indicates those rat-like people haven't given up. Find him!"

"He is Granny Qi's grandson-in-law."

"If he did it, Granny Qi wouldn't be able to protect him."
