The city lord was very angry. His wife was clearly the kindest and gentlest woman in the world. How could she do such a thing?

This was obviously done by him, a man with blood on his hands, they must be lying!

Shen Yuzhao shook his head sincerely and said, "I didn't lie to you, they really said that."

"But when we questioned them later, they refused to say anything more. But we could see clearly that the exercises used by those people were all used by evil cultivators."

"So..." Shen Yuzhao looked at Ji Heng, "Madam, are you also an evil cultivator?"

Ji Heng's face looked a little ugly, but he still bit it and said, "I don't know what you are talking about!"

Lu Sangjiu smiled, "Do you really not know?"

"Actually, I thought you were innocent at first, but... the recruitment of the guard today was really smooth."

She said, "Even if I unblock him, it won't mean that he won't ask anything. He will just be so cooperative and say everything, right?"

"And he also deliberately emphasized in the middle that everything was done by the city lord, and the lady didn't know about it."

"This is very strange. I was controlled by the city lord and did many bad things. It doesn't make sense to suddenly have a conscience at this time, right? Is it necessary to protect the city lord's wife at this time?"

Lu Sangjiu actually began to doubt Ji Heng at that time.

Later, after she fought her way into the courtyard, she received another message from Shen Yuzhao. In addition, Ji Heng had been acting out the image of an innocent person, and she felt that there seemed to be other people around the city lord's mansion.

Combining all these factors, Lu Sangjiu felt that there was probably something really wrong with Ji Heng.

Of course, she was just suspicious in the end. Although she kept threatening to kill them all, she still had the reputation of the Seven Emotions Sect and could not act randomly outside.

So she had been deliberately scaring them, just to make Ji Heng jump over the wall and expose herself.

With Shen Yuzhao's words and Lu Sangjiu's additions, the city lord finally wavered, "No, this is impossible... How could Madam..."

Halfway through, he seemed to suddenly remember something. He turned his head stiffly and looked at Ji Heng, "I remember..."

"The method of refining human elixir was told to me by the person you rescued... Could it be?"

On his face he couldn't believe it, but in his heart he was clearly convinced.

Ji Heng was silent for a moment, but suddenly took off all his disguises. His face no longer had that weak and frightened expression. Instead, he raised his eyebrows, looked at the city lord and smiled softly.

"Husband, isn't it nice to just be a fool? Why do you have to listen to them?"

"But..." As she stood up, she raised her hand and patted the city lord on the cheek, "You were even stopped from self-destructing. You are in the Nascent Soul stage... you are really a waste."

Looking at the lady who was completely different from what he had remembered, the city lord seemed to be shocked and completely stunned.

Ji Heng paid no more attention to him, but looked at Lu Sangjiu, "Little girl, I have given you a way to solve this matter safely, and I have found a scapegoat for you, so why do you have to follow me?" Can't make it?

"It's really... seeking death."

Shen Yuzhao looked at her in confusion, "You can't even beat me, how can you get the confidence to talk to my junior sister like this?"

Ji Heng: "..."

She said angrily, "Shut up! Do you really think I'm not your opponent? I just don't want to expose my trump card prematurely!"

Lu Sangjiu chuckled, "You don't need to be so excited. Isn't your so-called trump card not your own strength?"

She could see clearly that Ji Heng was only at the Golden Core level, and most of it was forcibly improved using some evil method, so he was very vain. Shen Yuzhao could easily defeat her without using strange fire.

Ji Heng probably really cared about the fact that his cultivation was not as good as others, and his face became extremely gloomy when Lu Sangjiu said that.

"What's so great about you? It's just that your talent is a little better and you joined the sect! If I were you, I would definitely do a thousand or ten thousand times better than you!"

Lu Sangjiu said "Oh", "What a pity, you are not me."

Ji Heng: "..."

Her words were fluttering, but she was furious.

"Are you very proud? It's a pity that you all have to die here today and become the nourishment for me to purify my spiritual roots!"

Ji Heng looked ferocious at this time, with madness in his eyes.

What he said also made Shen Yuzhao's expression change. He pulled Lu Sangjiu's sleeve nervously, "Little junior sister, she seems to have some conspiracy..."

Lu Sangjiu smiled and said, "Of course there is a conspiracy. Otherwise, why do you think she is such a weakling? Why would she suddenly have the courage to show off with us? She doesn't think the time is ripe to catch us all."

Shen Yuzhao's eyes suddenly widened, "Huh? Then we..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Ji Heng's wild laughter, "Hahahaha, you are smart, but it's a pity that it's too late now!"

"Open the Blood Wave Formation!"

As she finished speaking, blood shot up from the entire courtyard of the guest room, and blood-red lines appeared on the ground. In just a moment, Shen Yuzhao felt that he could not move.

But before Ji Heng shouted those words, he quickly retreated and was not enveloped by the formation.

Looking at the group of people trapped inside and unable to move, Ji Heng was extremely proud, "Hahahaha, a Nascent Soul and a group of top-notch golden elixirs... My Blood Wave Formation today will definitely help me purify my spiritual roots and achieve success." Great talent!”

She originally only had three spiritual roots, but by taking advantage of this opportunity, she would definitely become a genius with only one spiritual root. By then, she would no longer be constrained by these spiritual roots, and would be unable to catch up with others no matter how hard she tried!

Ji Heng's eyes flashed with excitement, but after waiting for a moment, he discovered that although the formation trapped them all, it did not cause any harm to them.

The excitement in her eyes gradually turned into confusion, "How could..."

Lu Sangjiu smiled softly, "Didn't you realize that we are missing one person?"

Ji Heng's expression changed, "...that Buddhist cultivator!"

Xie Ningyuan's voice then sounded, "How about it, I came in time, right?"

Everyone looked up and saw Xie Ningyuan standing on the roof at some point, looking down.

The corners of Lu Sangjiu's lips raised slightly, "It came just in time."

The next moment, Xie Ningyuan struck down with a palm, and the entire bloody formation was shattered, and the people inside were freed.

Ji Heng suffered a backlash and spit out a large mouthful of blood, but he didn't care about his pain at all. He only widened his eyes in disbelief, "Impossible...how could you break through the blood wave formation so easily?!"
