Xie Ningyuan smiled, "Why not?"

Ji Heng said without hesitation: "I have clearly locked this formation with a thousand-year moon stone. Unless the moon stone is found, it is impossible..."

"Oh, is this what you're talking about?"

Before Ji Heng finished speaking, he was interrupted by Xie Ningyuan.

He held a stone that exuded the moonlight in one hand and smiled softly at Ji Heng, "I just stopped by your yard for a walk. This stone looks very nice, so I brought it here. Do you want it?" ?"

Ji Heng's eyes widened, "You... how is that possible? I clearly put the moon stone in a hidden secret room..."

At this time, Yan Zui, who had been pretending to be asleep just now, couldn't help but open his eyes, "Ahem... I quietly went for a walk in your yard at night when I had nothing to do, and I happened to see you coming out of the secret room."

"I conveniently stuck a piece of debris on the door that was about to close, but you seemed to have something to do, so you hurried away without even bothering to check."

However, there were other guards in her yard. If Yan Zui had only herself, she really had no confidence that she could enter the secret room without being discovered, so she just wanted to wait for Lu Sangjiu and the others to come back and explore together.

Unexpectedly, it was such a coincidence that because of her smooth movement, Xie Ningyuan later easily entered and exited Ji Heng's secret room and found the moon stone placed in another associated formation to lock the formation here.

When he saw the formation, he roughly knew what Ji Heng was going to do, so he sent a message to Lu Sangjiu to briefly explain it. Only then did Lu Sangjiu become so confident.

At this time, Ji Heng suddenly collapsed after hearing Yan Zui's words, "How could this happen? Then my men..."

"Oh, kill them all."

Xie Ningyuan's words became the last straw that broke the camel's back. Ji Heng went completely crazy, "I will fight with you!"

She rushed towards Xie Ningyuan angrily, but Xie Ningyuan didn't change his expression and just threw the moonstone in his hand as if it was a hidden weapon, hitting Ji Heng in the chest.

Ji Heng immediately vomited blood and flew out, just in time to fall in front of the city lord.

However, the lovers who had been inseparable before now looked at each other again, but they were already in different moods.

"lady……"

The city lord murmured, and subconsciously stretched out his hand to help, but stopped halfway and did not move forward after all.

He really wanted to ask why, but in fact he already had the answer in his heart. It didn't make much sense to ask or not to ask this question.

So when he was about to die, facing this woman whom he once loved to the core, he ended up in silence.

Ji Heng, on the other hand, seemed to be stung by his distant and disappointed gaze, and couldn't help but scream, "What's that expression on your face!"

"Didn't you say that no matter what I become, you would always love me? Didn't you say that you would love and protect me forever?"

"What now? You can't do anything, you useless piece of trash!"

Her screams and curses were harsh and unpleasant, but the city lord's expression surprisingly gradually calmed down.

As if he suddenly understood something, he smiled softly, "I'm really ashamed to say that I claimed to love you as much as my life, but in the end I never saw you clearly... You scolded me and mocked me, which is right. of."

Shen Yuzhao had an incomprehensible look on his face and couldn't help but leaned closer to Lu Sangjiu, "Little junior sister, is there something wrong with his brain?"

Lu Sangjiu seemed to have guessed something, and just shook his head. It was rare that he didn't mock him for being a love brain.

Ji Heng, who was originally hysterical, felt like a deflated ball after hearing the city lord's calm words. His whole body went limp.

"I'm so stupid, why do I put my hope in a loser like you?"

"Obviously I am only one step away from success, but after all..."

She closed her eyes hard and murmured softly, "If there is another life, I hope God will not be so mean to me again..."

After saying that, she suddenly opened her eyes and glanced coldly at the city lord who was struggling to move towards her step by step.

She didn't say anything or move away, just letting him try to hold her hand.

The city lord was lying on the ground, looking up slightly at Ji Heng who was sitting there, and tried his best to squeeze out a smile.

"A Heng... everything in this world has passed. I will still be with you on the road to hell. If there is an afterlife, I hope we are just an ordinary couple."

No one paid attention to him just now, he had quietly opened some of the sealed hole.

At this time, he did not take action against Lu Sangjiu and the others, but only used his last spiritual power to shatter his and Ji Heng's hearts.

As their bodies fell softly, they also completely died.

The scene in front of them left everyone speechless for a long time.

Although it is his own fault, it still makes the spectators sigh.

Lu Sangjiu sighed softly, "He is indeed an infatuated person."

Unfortunately, it was used in the wrong place.

As soon as the city lord and Ji Heng died, the guards who had been controlled by them also died. In the huge city lord's mansion, only six of them were left alive.

Looking back at Gu Jue and his group of wounded, Lu Sangjiu said to Shen Yuzhao, "Third senior brother, we have to rely on you and Duoduo to take care of us here. Xie Ningyuan and I are going to see if there are any survivors."

Shen Yuzhao nodded repeatedly, "Leave this to me, you can go without worries!"

After a pause, he looked at the corpses all over the yard with lingering fear, and shrank back to Lu Sangjiu with some fear, "But... little junior sister, there are too many corpses here, I'm a little scared."

Lu Sangjiu: "..."

I didn’t see you scared when I was killing people, but you were scared when there were corpses on the ground?

However, considering that this is all the influence of the Seven Emotions Jue on him, now that he has been promoted to the Golden Core stage, he is actually more courageous than before, so he cannot be too harsh.

So she thought about saying a few words of comfort, but before she could say anything, she heard him say again, "Can I burn them all? This way they won't feel intrusive."

Lu Sangjiu: "..."

It turns out to be the living King of Hell in the world, and I’m disturbing you.

She swallowed back her comforting words, "Before the fever..."

Shen Yuzhao immediately answered, "Search yourself first and take away the valuables. I understand!"

Lu Sangjiu: "...Very good."

She turned around and walked towards Xie Ningyuan without saying anything, "Leave this to the third senior brother. Let's go to the backyard to have a look."

Along the way, Lu Sangjiu was silent as he reviewed the events of Yuelincheng in his mind.

Although there was no danger in the end, to be honest, many things surprised Lu Sangjiu.

For example... Chengzheng's action was a bit too fast and too sudden.

Judging from the preparations he had made, he probably didn't intend to fall out with them directly, or at least wanted to delay it for a few more days.

He denied that he did not need to send a maid to monitor him in the first place, nor did he need to agree to let her see Ji Heng in order to stabilize Yan Zui.

Moreover, after she and Xie Ningyuan left the city, if they wanted to take action, they could have done so long ago, but they delayed the sudden attack on them until night.

It felt more like something happened temporarily, forcing the city lord to take action.

So...what exactly happened?
