Shanli City, East Gate.

After a short stay, Nangong Yueze and the disciples of Tianxin Academy left Shanli City one after another on horseback.

It wasn't until they could no longer be seen that Ye Bei felt that the spiritual restrictions in his body were lifted.

However, he did not feel relaxed because of this, but became more worried.

Just now, he heard with his own ears the identity of this young man.

It turned out that the person he wanted to kill was actually the Ninth Prince of the Nebula Empire.

Thinking of what he had just said to him, Ye Bei felt scared in his heart.

He actually said in public that he was a wanted felon by the Seventh Prince Nangong Jing!
This is not obvious to everyone, does Nangong Jing want to deal with his biological brother?
Not to mention whether this sentence offended Nangong Yueze, once Nangong Jing knew about it, with his temper, even if he had a hundred mouths, he might not be able to explain it.

Thinking of this, a thin layer of cold sweat suddenly broke out on Ye Bei's forehead.

At this moment, Murong Yongchun, who had regained his composure, suddenly came to Ye Bei with his sword in hand, "You just hurt me so much!!"

"You, what do you want to do??" Seeing Murong Yongchun charging toward him with a long sword, Ye Bei immediately drew his sword.

"If it weren't for you, how could I have offended the Ninth Prince??!!" Murong Yongchun roared ferociously, "I will kill you today!!"

"You are entirely responsible for this matter, what does it have to do with me??" Ye Bei shouted unwilling to be outdone, "Besides, you just accepted three thousand gold leaves from me!"

"Me!!" Murong Yongchun was choked and speechless. He looked at the heavy money bag in his hand and his face turned blue and white.

"Murong City Master, in my opinion, you should go back and have a good rest. Once the Ninth Prince reports your matter to His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, your good days will come to an end." Ye Bei looked at him and said.

Murong Yongchun's expression was extremely ugly. He knew that no matter what he did now, he could not change Nangong Yueze's opinion of him.

But he is still not reconciled!
"Since I'm having a hard time, don't even think about having a good time!" Murong Yongchun clenched his sword, stared at Ye Bei fiercely, and said every word.

After saying that, he swung his sword and stabbed Ye Bei directly.

"Seeking death!!" Ye Bei cursed angrily, and then quickly dodged Murong Yongchun's attack.

Murong Yongchun did not give up and continued to wield his sword, chasing Ye Bei.

"Boom-boom-boom-"

Seeing that the fight between the two became more and more fierce, a group of black people standing not far away and two groups of Shanli City soldiers also began to fight.

The scene quickly descended into chaos...

Seeing the group of Shanli City soldiers fighting madly behind him, Ye Bei's face was filled with uncertainty. The Feiyun Sect originally sent him to investigate the disappearance of Bai Jinghan, but he was trapped here because of 20 gold leaves... …

How to do?
How should he get rid of these people?
Just when Ye Bei was hesitating, a strong wind suddenly hit him.

Ye Bei suddenly turned his head and saw a man wearing a bamboo hat coming behind him at some point.

Ye Bei quickly recognized that the man was the man who gave him [-] gold leaves and asked him to assassinate Nangong Yueze.

"What do you want to do..." Ye Bei asked warily.

"What are you doing?" The man sneered, "Those who are not successful enough and are prone to failure have no need to live."

As soon as the man finished speaking, Ye Bei felt a powerful force coming from his back.

The next second, the man's figure disappeared from the spot, and Ye Bei's expression became completely stiff.

He didn't know that the man wearing a bamboo hat was already a second-level spiritual master.

And he is just a spiritual king!
This gap is a chasm that he cannot bridge at all...

At the moment when the man's breath disappeared, Ye Bei fell to the ground with a bang and died.

His eyes were wide open, and he was obviously unwilling to rest in death.

"Master!!!!"

The group of men in black were so frightened that they screamed when they saw Ye Bei's tragic death.

When Murong Yongchun saw this, his eyes widened in shock. He clearly didn't touch the other person, why did he die? ?

"Murong Yongchun, you, you actually killed my young master!!!" A man in black roared at Murong Yongchun.

Several other people also locked their sights on Murong Yongchun, seemingly preparing to avenge Ye Bei.

"I didn't do it, I didn't kill him at all!!" Seeing this scene, Murong Yongchun hurriedly shook his head in denial.

"You are the only one fighting against my young master here. Who else can there be besides you??!!" The man in black asked through gritted teeth.

"I...I..." Murong Yongchun hesitated for a while.

In fact, he was not sure who killed Ye Bei.

After all, the moment just now was too short. He didn't even see how Ye Bei died, so how could he kill him?

"Whether you believe it or not, I didn't kill him if I said I didn't kill him. If you want someone to pay for your life, go find the murderer yourself. This matter has nothing to do with me!" Murong Yongchun rolled his sleeves and snorted coldly.

Although he really wanted to kill Ye Bei just now, he was not stupid enough to kill someone in public. "Hmph, do you think we will believe your lies?"

"Believe it or not!!" Murong Yongchun was too lazy to continue arguing. Anyway, he had never done it before. "If you continue to insist on entangled, I will put you and all in prison!"

The group of men in black looked at each other, and finally chose to take Ye Bei's body away from here.

"Murong Yongchun, just wait, our Feiyun Sect will not let this matter go!" The man in black said harsh words, turned around and left with the remaining men in black.

……

Another half day of traveling.

Not long after, Qin Xuan and his party came to a place called Linfeng Mountain Range. It was surrounded by high peaks and cliffs. It was easy to defend but difficult to attack. It was a natural fortress.

"Master, I just looked at the map. Once we cross this mountain range, we will not be far from Zixu Academy." Tang Liu said to Qin Xuan and everyone.

"Well, although we are not far from Zixu, everyone should be more vigilant. There are many monsters in the Linfeng Mountains, and few people usually set foot here." Qin Xuan warned seriously.

"Yes, Master."

Qin Xuan nodded, then raised his hand and led everyone deeper into the mountains.

In just a moment, they came to a valley.

"Master, we have been traveling for several hours. Do you want to stop and take a rest?" Tang Liu looked at the desolate scene around him and asked in a low voice.

"Yes, Master, we have been working hard all the way, and we haven't had any water or food yet, so why not take this opportunity to rest." Another disciple added.

Qin Xuan frowned and glanced around, "This place is desolate and remote, and it is in the hinterland of the mountains. If there are really monsters, we will be in danger. It is better for everyone to be cautious."

Qin Xuan's worries were not groundless. After all, such desolate places were also the favorite places for monsters to hide. Unless their cultivation was strong enough, ordinary practitioners would try to avoid staying in such places for a long time.

"Master, since everyone is tired, let's rest for half an hour. As long as we leave here before dark, we will be fine." Nangong Yueze suddenly suggested.

Since leaving Shanli City, everyone has been traveling for more than three hours without eating or drinking.

"But..." Qin Xuan still hesitated.

Nangong Yueze smiled slightly and said: "Master, it's okay even if there are a few monster beasts. With your cultivation level, master, you can kill a few of them and refine them into spiritual power."

After hearing this, Qin Xuan thought for a moment, and finally agreed to Nangong Yueze's proposal, "Okay then, let's find an open place to rest nearby, and everyone will take turns keeping watch to prevent accidents."

Upon hearing Qin Xuan's agreement, the disciples breathed a sigh of relief, and then each took out their own dry food and began to fill their stomachs.

Jiuge also took out a steamed bun from her bag and was about to eat it when she suddenly saw Nangong Yueze standing alone on the hillside not far away, watching.

"Strange, why didn't he eat and ran over there alone?" Jiuge said to himself.

Jiuge glanced at Nangong Yueze a few more times, and found that the other party ignored him, so he curled his lips, put the bun to his mouth, and took a big bite.

After a long time, just as Jiuge was about to go over and ask him if he wanted to eat something, suddenly, a lightning thunder eagle flew towards Nangong Yueze.

The thunder eagle flew down on his arm, as if whispering something to him. Soon, a look of solemnity appeared in Nangong Yueze's eyes.

"Oze, what's wrong? What happened??" Qin Xuan stood up and walked forward and asked.

Nangong Yueze pondered for a moment, looked at Qin Xuan and said, "Not long after we left Shanli City, the Feiyun Sect Young Master was killed."

"What?" Qin Xuan's expression changed and he immediately asked: "Who did it?"

"Lightning Thunder Eagle said he was a man wearing a bamboo hat." Nangong Yueze said in a deep voice, "That man has been lurking in Shanli City since we stayed at the Phoenix Inn."

"The man wearing a bamboo hat? Who is he?" Qin Xuan asked again.

Nangong Yueze frowned slightly, paused for a moment, and then said: "Although Lightning Thunder Eagle did not see his face, I am basically certain that that person is Li Mingyang, the commander of the guards around Nangong Jing's mother-concubine Ning Qimeng. He claims to the outside world that he is just a spiritual king, but in fact, he is already a second-level spiritual master."

"Second-level spiritual master..."

After listening to what Nangong Yueze said, Qin Xuan's heart immediately cast a shadow.

In the entire Tianyan Continent, there are no more than ten people who have cultivated to the realm of spiritual masters, and yet a mere guard commander can possess such a profound cultivation level.

This is puzzling.

The reason why he appeared in Shanli City may not be that simple.

"Nangong Jing hasn't thought of taking action against me yet, but his mother can't wait any longer." Nangong Yueze murmured to himself.

With Si Qin not around, he could no longer monitor Ning Qimeng and Li Mingyang's actions at any time like before. Not only that, he might not be able to hide his cultivation for much longer.

However, Nangong Yueze was not panicked by this.

Since the other party can no longer hold back, there is no need for him to continue to hold back.

"Go to the Imperial City to see what happened. Why did Ning Qimeng suddenly send Li Mingyang to follow me?" Nangong Yueze turned to the lightning eagle and said.

"Yes, Master." The Lightning Thunder Eagle nodded in agreement, then soared into the sky and disappeared over the Linfeng Mountains.
