Lingxu, Sword Coffin, Blind Swordsman

His left hand formed a hand seal, and the talismans shimmered, densely packed, concealing the two figures.

Gu Li stared sharply in all directions, fearing any unexpected events.

With the blessing of the talismans, Zheng Qian also began to have the power to fight back.

Leng Yan's face was pale, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth.

The blood from her shoulders and waist had stained the talismans red.

She opened her eyes, looking at Gu Li's firm face and his sharply defined features.

Her soft, slender waist was embraced by Gu Li, with a large hand gently touching her waist.

The woman was momentarily stunned, not knowing why her heart was beating faster and faster.

At this moment, the flow of talismans around her seemed to slow down.

Before her were only Gu Li's handsome, angular face and his resolute eyes.

Strands of hair at his temples fluttered slightly, and Gu Li, as if sensing something, lowered his head slightly and looked at the woman.

Leng Yan, her face flushed with embarrassment, felt her cheeks burning, and she closed her eyes, feigning unconsciousness.

But Gu Li's face kept appearing before her eyes.

The cultivators from the three major families on the city wall were dumbfounded.

They didn't expect that a city-destroying crisis caused by a great demon invasion would actually be stopped by these young people!

"Are these the Heaven's Chosen from the various peaks of the Great Xia Sword Sect... such terrifying strength."

One of the old men couldn't help but smile wryly and shake his head upon seeing this.

"No wonder that young man would say such a thing."

"If we went up, we would only be seeking death and hindering them."

Duan Chenxin's face was slightly pale, and the previous injuries still throbbed faintly.

Duan Yu, who was supporting the old man, couldn't help but praise.

"What a terrifying talisman master!"

"He is only a Xuan Xian... if he were a Tian Xian, I'm afraid these great demons wouldn't even be able to get within a hundred feet of him, right?"

The old man nodded slightly upon hearing this, his eyes somewhat solemn.

"Yes, this talisman master is not simple..."

Boom!!!

Zheng Qian stood in the air covered in blood, the massive creature before him collapsing heavily outside the city wall!

The body of the Earth Tyrant Ape was covered in messy, crisscrossing sword marks, deep enough to see the bone.

And on Zheng Qian's back were densely packed dozens of various talismans.

Zheng Qian clutched his left shoulder, the intense stinging pain from his broken arm constantly stimulating his nerves.

But he knew that he couldn't stop now, the centipede had not been killed yet.

Gu Li, hugging Leng Yan, headed towards Jiang Yuntao's location.

At this time, Leng Yan was too embarrassed to continue pretending to be unconscious.

She pushed Gu Li away somewhat stiffly, got up, and flew to the outer side with Zheng Qian.

Gu Li stayed where he was, finally breathing a sigh of relief.

Tao Manman, thirty miles outside the city, saw many talismans burning wildly.

Her heart tightened, especially when nearly one-fifth of Zheng Qian's talismans were burned.

"He... what happened to him?!"

Rumble!!!

When the centipede broke through the talisman barrier and finally fell onto the city wall, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Zheng Qian and Jiang Yuntao slumped on the edge of the city wall, gasping for breath.

Tang Lian and the others also breathed a sigh of relief, swallowed pills, and began to heal their injuries.

Gu Li also breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this, and with a wave of his hand, he retrieved the remaining unconsumed talismans into his storage ring.

Duan Chenxin and the others hurried forward, bowing deeply!!

"The cultivators of Tianyou City thank you immortal masters for your righteous help!!"

"The Wu family of Tianyou City thanks you immortal masters."

"The Zhao family of Tianyou City thanks you immortal masters for eliminating the demons!"

Not only were these cultivators grateful, but everyone turned their heads and realized...

The common people of Tianyou City were kneeling in unison!!!

Everyone's eyes were filled with piety, and they kowtowed heavily in the direction of the people on the city wall!!

"Thank you immortal masters for your protection!!"

"Thank you immortal masters for your protection!!"

"Thank you immortal masters..."

Even though these people were in dire straits.

They still kowtowed so piously to their saviors.

Perhaps this was the only way they could express their feelings.

Even Gu Li, who was always calm and collected, was quite touched by this scene.

In the crowd, he saw those children who had asked them to light lamps and pray for blessings.

Some of them had long lost their parents.

Gu Li sighed, and at this time, Chen Manyu and the others handed over the processed materials from the great demon corpses to Gu Li.

Gu Li didn't hesitate and accepted them all.

These materials could only发挥 (fā huī - exert) their greatest value in his hands.

After putting away the things, Gu Li frowned, couldn't help but look at Old Man Duan.

It could be seen that this old man had extremely high prestige in the city.

Not only the common people, but even the other two families were very respectful of the old man.

"Old Duan, I want to ask, how many times have great demons invaded Tianyou City?"

The old man sighed and held up three fingers.

"Including this time, it's exactly the third time!"

Gu Li murmured.

"The third time..."

His mind began to recall the scene when they first arrived.

If he remembered correctly, the great demons that invaded before also had bloodshot eyes, as if they had lost their minds due to some stimulation.

The Nine Nether Thunder Falcon should have been very concerned about its territory.

If it wasn't attracted or stimulated by something, it would almost never leave its territory...

Nine Nether Thunder Falcon... Crimson Flame Fire Lion... Earth Tyrant Ape... Centipede...

All the great demons seemed to have bloodshot eyes and were abnormally crazy.

The Earth Tyrant Ape was gentle in nature and rarely heard of being violent and hurting people.

"This city..."

"Could it be that something is attracting these great demons here?"

Old Man Duan hesitated, opened his mouth as if wanting to say something, but was afraid of being abrupt.

Leng Yan and Zheng Qian looked at each other, then turned their attention to Gu Li.

Unknowingly, Gu Li was actually playing the role of a pillar of support like Chen Heng in this small group.

Gu Li was silent for a long time, and finally asked.

"Let's go, let's talk in detail at the mansion."

Gu Li felt that the matter of Tianyou City was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

The great demons repeatedly invaded, there must be a reason.

Since the Great Xia Sword Sect had accepted this task, it was impossible to just repel two waves of great demons and leave.

What if there were more later?

With just the three clans of cultivators in this Tianyou City, I'm afraid they couldn't even resist a single great demon.

The reason why Gu Li decided to investigate was also because he had asked Leng Yan and others.

These people's cultivation realms were relatively low, even if there was anything, they could escape calmly.

After Tao Manman returned, the group went to the Duan Mansion together.

Unknown to them, behind them, the eyes of a few people in the crowd fluctuated slightly.

At the same time.

Li Guanqi frowned as he looked at the jade slip in his hand.

"Even if he's busy, he shouldn't take so long to reply to me..."

Li Guanqi's heart was faintly uneasy.

Recalling Gu Li's previous message.

"Tianyou City..."

Li Guanqi suddenly stood up, carrying the sword coffin on his back, took a step and disappeared into the other courtyard.

After leaving the Great Xia Sword Sect, he immediately shot towards Tianyou City!!

Yunmiao Land, Ye Feng moved his arm slightly, casually throwing the head of the cultivator in his hand aside.

After searching his body, he only found a jade slip engraved with the character 'Li'.

His eyes flickered, he put on a black robe and gradually hid in the darkness.

"The Li family... is that the Ten Lands branch of the Li family's young master who was killed?"

"Hmph, the strongmen of the lower realm have been killed, and they still haven't given up trying to catch me..."
