Mortal Seeking Immortal

Before Xuan Yangzi walked out of the hall, he heard an old and sharp female voice coming into the hall: "Crazy Xuan, you came out just in time. I am just going to settle accounts with you!"

The voice was so sharp, like metal scraping, which made most of the cultivators present feel numb all over.

Hearing this voice, a cold color flashed in Xuan Yangzi's eyes, and the index finger of his right hand hanging by his side moved slightly. The city lord sitting on the high seat frowned slightly and stood up to look outside the hall.

The next moment, a red light appeared out of thin air outside the hall. When the red light dissipated, two figures were revealed.

The person in the lead was wearing a tight red dress, barefoot in the air, and a pair of beautiful eyes looked coldly at Xuan Yangzi in the hall.

Her figure was graceful, her hair was black like a waterfall, her skin was white like snow, her face was delicate like a peony, and her red lips were charming. Judging from her age, she was about the prime of her life.

This person was another Yuanying realm cultivator under the seat of the city lord in Xianliu City, Hongyu Fairy.

When the Jindan cultivators in the hall saw this person, they all bowed and saluted, and there was a trace of fear in their eyes.

Half a meter behind Hongyu Fairy, stood a Jindan Great Perfection female cultivator wearing a purple skirt and a smoky purple veil. She was Hongyu Fairy's beloved disciple, Fairy Ziyun.

Xuan Yangzi looked at the person and said sternly: "Old witch Hongyu, you came at the right time. You ordered Ziyun to kill my beloved disciple. I want to ask you for an explanation!"

As soon as the voice fell, a black light shot out from Xuan Yangzi's sleeve and stopped in front of him. It was the ruler with runes engraved all over it.

A powerful pressure of the Yuanying magic weapon came from the ruler and attacked Hongyu Fairy outside the hall.

"Tongtian Ruler!"

A cultivator in the hall who recognized this object whispered that this magic weapon was Xuan Yangzi's famous magic weapon with amazing power. It had killed Yuanying spirit insects.

Seeing that the battle was about to break out, all the Jindan realm cultivators in the hall retreated tacitly to avoid being affected, trying to stay away from the battle circle.

Before the pressure came, Hongyu Fairy snorted coldly, and the pressure collapsed instantly, and Xuan Yangzi's face instantly became very ugly.

Hongyu Fairy said disdainfully: "Xuan Crazy, you dare to show off with this broken ruler. If the battle is ruined later, I will not compensate you!"

Hongyu Fairy's voice was as old as an old woman.

Xuan Yangzi was so angry that his old face turned red. He pointed at Hongyu Fairy and said angrily: "Old witch! You are really bullying me too much!"

Hongyu Fairy's eyes turned cold, and she looked at Xuan Yangzi as if she was looking at a dead person, and said coldly: "Xuan Crazy, you don't know that I hate people saying the word "old" the most!"

A red light emerged from Hongyu Fairy, and Xuan Yangzi showed a trace of fear in his eyes.

Could it be that she was going to use that magic weapon?

Xuan Yangzi's expression changed slightly, and he was about to activate the Tongtian Ruler to resist, but the city lord standing on the high platform said in time: "Stop!"

Hong Yuxian Gu glanced at the city lord's position, frowned slightly, and seemed a little reluctant. After a moment, the red light on Hong Yuxian Gu finally dissipated.

Xuan Yangzi breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. He didn't really want to fight with Hong Yuxian Gu.

How could an old monster who has lived to their level fight to the death with people of the same level for a little thing outside of his body? Even if the dead person is his only blood descendant in the world.

He made that gesture just now, just to make the other party compensate more resources.

After all, the person is dead, even revenge can't bring him back to life, and resources are real benefits. Compared with finding the real murderer who killed Zheng Yao, Xuan Yangzi wants to blame Hong Yuxian Gu and his apprentice for this matter.

In Xianliu City, besides the city lord, this woman has the richest wealth.

Hongyu Fairy stepped into the hall. Xuan Yangzi stood in front of the hall door and was unwilling to give way, but when Hongyu Fairy glanced at him coldly, his body involuntarily stepped aside to give way.

Everyone in the hall bowed their heads and counted ants.

Hongyu Fairy led Ziyun Fairy straight to the city lord. When they arrived in front of the hall, Hongyu Fairy stopped and said, "City Lord, today I brought my beloved disciple Ziyun here to ask the city lord to do justice for our master and disciple!"

Xuan Yangzi felt something was wrong when he heard it. He hurried to Hongyu Fairy and said to the city lord, "City Lord, everything has a first come first served. Please let the city lord decide for me about the murder of my only descendant. The murderer must be severely punished!"

Before the city lord could speak, Hongyu Fairy glared at Xuan Yangzi coldly. "Crazy Xuan, you are talking about justice, but you just want to put the blame on me so that you can get a huge compensation from me."

Xuan Yangzi was hit by someone's words, and his lips stammered a few times. He was about to argue, but before he opened his mouth, he saw Hongyu Fairy turned to look at the city lord and said, "City lord, I have carefully questioned Ziyun, the little girl, just now, and she has not done anything to kill Zheng."

"Everything is slandered by others!"

The city lord heard this and turned to look at Xuan Yangzi, with a little embarrassment in his eyes.

Xuan Yangzi hurriedly said, "Words are not enough! The only people in Xianliu City who have the courage and strength to kill Zheng Yao are your disciples."

Hongyu Fairy said coldly, "I can make Ziyun swear to the Heavenly Dao!"

After Hongyu Fairy said this, Xuan Yangzi had nothing to say. After all, for cultivators, only those who are truly clear in conscience dare to swear to the Heavenly Dao.

It seems that Zheng Yaozhen was not killed by Ziyun, and the dream of getting resources from Hongyu Fairy has been shattered.

Xuan Yangzi's eyes showed a hint of disappointment.

The city lord standing above breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Xuan Yangzi and said: "Don't worry, Master Xuan, I will definitely let someone find the real murderer who killed your apprentice."

Xuan Yangzi bowed to the city lord and said, "Thank you, city lord. If you know the identity of the murderer, please let me know as soon as possible so that I can avenge my disciple myself."

After saying that, Xuan Yangzi turned around and walked out of the hall. The two young men in white shirts standing beside him saw this and were about to follow Xuan Yangzi's pace. Unexpectedly, before they took three steps, a terrifying pressure fell on them.

The two young men in white shirts stood there with terrified expressions on their faces.

Xuan Yangzi, who was about to leave, turned cold and looked at Hongyu Fairy and said, "Hongyu, what do you want to do?"

Hongyu Fairy said coldly, "Crazy Xuan, your cultivation has not improved in recent years and you have an ear disease. I just said that I came here to let the city lord do justice for my master and disciple!"

"Just now at the city gate, your two good disciples wanted to attack Ziyun. If I hadn't discovered it in time, I'm afraid Ziyun would have been caught by them as a murderer!"

"How can my beloved disciple bear such humiliation? Tell me, how should this matter end?"

Xuan Yangzi frowned slightly, glanced at the two young men in white standing there, and said, "They were also eager to protect their children and lost their sense of proportion for a while."

"Besides, it was your disciple who admitted to killing Yaoer at the city gate. Otherwise, they would not have attacked your disciple."
