Chapter 77: City Gate Sealed! Fan Dongyang Furious!!

Inside the City Lord's mansion.

The chaos has already ended.

In the vast City Lord's mansion, the guards and maidservants have almost all been wiped out.

City Lord Fan Dongyang, his body swaying, his face twisted, his eyes turned a sinister, terrifying red, the killing intent on his body so thick it was unimaginable, his gaze locked firmly on the ground before him.

In the sunken ground, his wife's shape was horrific, flesh and bone melted, barely retaining a human form.

Even the fetus in her womb perished alongside her.

"Who is it? Who is it?"

Fan Dongyang's mind surged, countless thoughts arising.

It was as if thunder and lightning were crackling across his brain.

After a moment, killing intent surfaced in his eyes, chilling and terrifying.

"Is it Ouyang Feng? Or the Heavenly Principle Sect?"

The deadly poison on his wife's body is so intense that, aside from the Poison King Ouyang Feng, it seems no one else could have done this.

However, Ouyang Feng's records show he is certainly not a master of the Muscle/Tendon Changing Realm.

Even relying on his Poison Technique, it would be impossible to kill her!

Besides Ouyang Feng, only the Heavenly Principle Sect remains.

Within the Heavenly Principle Sect, all kinds of people abound; perhaps there is someone who cultivates poison techniques.

But whether it be the Heavenly Principle Sect or Ouyang Feng, whoever dares to kill his wife, he will tear them to pieces!

"It's all my fault; if I hadn't found life dull and deliberately nurtured an opponent, my wife wouldn't have died. Now that she's dead, this swarm of ants has no right to live—I will slaughter them all!"

Fan Dongyang's heart filled with anguish, tears streaming, he said solemnly: "Seal the city; from now on no one may leave. When I return, also block the news of my wife's death."

"Will the City Lord take action against the Heavenly Principle Sect?"

The elderly servant behind him asked cautiously.

When the Heavenly Principle Sect attacked the City Lord's mansion, he happened to be heading to the Shadow Tower.

By the time he returned, his wife had already died a horrific death.

"A bunch of ants killed my wife; not a single one of them deserves to live."

Fan Dongyang's voice ice-cold, he said: "I will crush them in the most brutal way."

"Yes, City Lord!"

The old servant replied honestly and cautiously.

Another direction.

Fang Yi had just set out, arriving at the city gate, when he saw the gate area crowded with a large throng, many people discussing loudly, the spacious gate already firmly shut.

On the city wall, ranks of city guards stood densely packed.

Each city guard had a stern expression, sharp eyes, scanning downward.

"The city is sealed; the city guards actually sealed it suddenly."

"I heard something major happened at the City Lord's mansion; the mansion was attacked by villains, countless casualties, and the City Lord flew into a rage."

"What? Someone attacked the City Lord's mansion? What did they do?"

"Who else could it be? Besides the Heavenly Principle Sect's evil followers, there wouldn't be a second."

The crowd chattered on.

Fang Yi frowned, his gaze turning to the city wall, preparing to climb over at night, but suddenly his pupils contracted slightly as he noticed an old man in a gray robe appearing atop the high wall.

The old man's body was stooped; at first glance he seemed unremarkable.

But upon closer observation, it inevitably made Fang Yi's hair stand on end, giving him an indescribable sense of danger.

It was as if he had suddenly come face‑to‑face with some unknown creature.

"This old man—his aura is the same as the City Lord's wife's. Is he not human?"

Fang Yi's heart surged; he instantly sensed something was wrong.

Since killing the City Lord's wife, he has developed an instinctive reaction to this unknown aura.

"Not good."

With this old man guarding the city, even if he tried to slip over the wall silently, it would become extraordinarily difficult.

Beings of this kind have extremely keen perception!

Even if he left the city from elsewhere, it would still be unsafe.

Consider that he had just killed the City Lord's wife; her body was saturated with deadly poison, making it easy for City Lord Fan Dongyang to suspect him.

If he rashly left the city again, it would only increase the chance of exposure.

"I need to lay low for a few days, avoid the spotlight; taking advantage of these days, I'll practice those mid‑rank martial arts."

Fang Yi was extremely decisive, turning and walking away.

He now has absolute certainty that City Lord Fan Dongyang is definitely a monster as well!

On the city wall.

The old man stood tall, his gaze indifferent, scanning downward.

All manner of people on the street, without exception, were reflected in his eyes.

Suddenly, he noticed the departing Fang Yi, frowned slightly, then quickly shifted his gaze to others.

"The city gate is sealed?"

Inside the Hundred Herbs Hall, Shen Huairen exclaimed in shock.

"Yes, it's likely to pursue remnants of the Heavenly Principle Sect."

Fang Yi replied.

"Well, it's a troubled autumn, truly a troubled autumn, fortunately the city lord's wife was killed by Ouyang Feng, otherwise our troubles would be greater."

Fan Dongyang sighed lightly.

At least now nobody will silence them anymore.

"Fang Yi, let's do this: starting tomorrow, nobody needs to come to work; I'll guard the thatched hall, you all take a temporary break to avoid running into trouble later."

Shen Huairen said.

"All right."

Fang Yi nodded.

He just needs time to cultivate.

Next, Shen Huairen directly summoned everyone, began giving orders, decided to give everyone a vacation.

Night fell.

The mist spread, bringing with it waves of gloomy, icy chill.

In the spacious forest.

Numerous figures, densely packed, formed a huge camp.

This is the base where the Heavenly Reason Sect and the martial artists of Yunyang City joined forces.

Torches flickered, lights blazed bright.

Inside a spacious tent.

【Jade-Faced Bright Venerable】 Bai Wuchen, face full of smiles, seated upright, bearing the calm expression of one holding a wisdom pearl, seeming unperturbed at any moment, giving an unfathomable impression.

Beside him was Yunyang City's lord, Ge Bin, with a face full of emotion.

"It's a pity this operation lost Brother Wu Yun and let Fan Dongyang escape; Fan Dongyang has no other tricks, this escape method is truly top-notch."

"Rest assured, he was struck by my Point Star Finger; the force shattered seven meridians, even if he escaped, his strength would be greatly diminished, destined not to become a threat."

Bai Wuchen's face was calm.

"Then when will we attack Qingyang City?"

Ge Bin's heart stirred, he asked.

"No rush, wait until Fan Dongyang can't bear it any longer before we speak; know that when a person is about to die, they often go mad, so there's no need to clash with him now."

Bai Wuchen smiled.

"All right, if we capture Fan Dongyang, may I handle him?"

Ge Bin laughed.

"Easy to say."

Bai Wuchen smiled.

"Hehehe"

Suddenly a string of strange, piercing sharp laughs came from outside their tent without warning, accompanied by waves of ineffable yin energy, causing the candles inside the tent to flicker erratically.

"I don't know how you want to deal with me?"

The strange, piercing laugh slowly came.

"Who?"

"What person?"

Everyone inside the tent changed expression and turned back abruptly.

Among them were three experts of the Heavenly Reason Sect, who without hesitation rushed out and lunged straight outside the tent.

But as they just lunged out, they heard a miserable scream instantly.

Bang bang bang!

The three Heavenly Reason Sect experts instantly flew backward, slammed hard into the tent, bodies withered, flesh gone, like dry corpses, dead beyond death.

Bai Wuchen and Ge Bin both pupils shrank, then suddenly rose.

Only see the tent tearing apart as if cut by invisible qi, rapidly shattering; a figure about three meters tall, covered head to toe in dense dark black hair, terrifying silhouette with a strange smile, appeared in their vicinity.

A pair of scarlet terrifying eyes, two thick brutal arms.

Ten nails like black hooks, gleaming with metallic light, coldly glinting, unstoppable.

More importantly.

This terrifying being actually has a face exactly like Fan Dongyang's.

"Fan Dongyang!"

Bai Wuchen and Ge Bin both hearts jolted, crying out in alarm.

"Am I not the old man? I've played with you for so long, you actually thought I was afraid of you? Little did you know, from beginning to end, you are all ants under my hand; now I'm bored, how do you want to die?"

Fan Dongyang laughed strangely.

"You!"

Whoosh!

Ge Bin, without thinking, turned and fled at extreme speed into the distance, his heart terrified to the utmost.

But just as he wanted to flee, Fan Dongyang's body was already like black lightning, instantly rushing over.

Puchi!

"Ah!"

A miserable cry rang out; this Yunyang City lord Ge Bin actually burst on the spot, torn apart.

Fan Dongyang's body appeared again, revealing a grim smile, he licked the blood off his nails, and laughed: "Don't rush, come one by one, nobody can escape; you killed my wife, I will make you all pay with your lives."
