Chapter 177 Han Cang Appears
The masters of Sunset City were surprised when they heard this, because when Hua Mantian asked Qi Wei, he did not mention Cheng Lingyu, nor did he mention all the following.
"Is Cheng Lingyu the same person at that time?"
"He has a companion named Lan Xiaozhu next to him, who are currently new disciples in Sunset City."
Amano Lingzun looked at the city lord and whispered: "After the city lord ordered Cheng Lingyu and Lan Xiaozhu to be invited. I want to ask them in person."
The city lord was silent for a moment and sent Hua Mantian to invite him.
When Cheng Lingyu saw Hua Mantian, he had a premonition in his heart. He stood up and gave a wink to his senior brother Wan Fang, and then followed Hua Mantian.
Wan Fang quickly entered the Supreme Palace and told the master about this.
A moment later, Cheng Lingyu and Lan Xiaozhu appeared in the hall for the first time. Apart from Hua Mantian, they did not recognize any of the spiritual master-level figures.
When Lan Xiaozhu saw Li Xiang, Qi Wei, and Fang Cuiyu, she seemed to understand something in her heart.
Cheng Lingyu also felt enlightened, but he acted peacefully.
Amano Lingzun looked at Cheng Lingyu and Lan Xiaozhu and said in a deep voice: "Have you seen Ouyang Lie near Sunset Pass?"
Cheng Lingyu shook his head and said, "No, we didn't stop at Sunset Pass at that time, so we flew by in the air ferry."
"Is that so? Then why do some people say that Ouyang Lie intercepts you near Xiyang Pass and wants to settle the score with you?"
Amano Lingzun's tone was cold and stern, and that mountainous aura made Cheng Lingyu almost unable to stand.
The city lord coughed lightly, and the heavy pressure on the hall disappeared without a trace.
Amano Lingzun was a little unhappy, but he didn't say anything.
Cheng Lingyu stood quietly in the hall and said calmly: "The right and wrong are unpredictable. Ouyang Lie does not have a good relationship with me, and it will not take a day or two to cause trouble for me. But if he wants to cause trouble for me, it does not mean that he must have seen me. Moreover, he is in the realm of blood martial arts. I was only at the third level of soul martial arts. Ling Zun thinks that with my relationship with Ouyang Lie, if I knew he was in the Sunset Pass, I would fly over the Sunset Pass with a swagger and go stupidly to provoke him?"
Cheng Lingyu's words are reasonable, but it is difficult to refute.
"The world is impermanent, and many things seem impossible, but they often happen. The three people next to you said that they had seen Ouyang Lie and also saw you flying over the sky above the sunset. They also said that Ouyang Lie discovered you at that time and said that he wanted to settle the score with you, but later it disappeared mysteriously. Do you think that just by saying that you have never seen it, can people win the trust? "
Cheng Lingyu looked at Li Xiang, Qi Wei, Fang Cuiyu and said in a deep voice: "Since they said they had seen Ouyang Lie and also saw me flying from the sky above the Sunset Pass, this means that they could prove that I did not see Ouyang Lie, and even did not know where Ouyang Lie went at the Sunset Pass. As for where Ouyang Lie went after he separated from them, they did not see it with their own eyes. They just deduced Ouyang Lie to find me based on some of Ouyang Lie's words. But in fact, we did not see Ouyang Lie, and there might be several situations in the middle. First, Ouyang Lie did not catch up with us. Second, Ouyang Lie encountered other things and was delayed in the middle. Third, Ouyang Lie had something to do and left directly. It is even possible that Ouyang Lie met an opponent in the middle before catching up with me. In the fierce battle between the two sides, Ouyang Lie died at the hands of others. After all, there were 100,000 people who came to Sunset City that time, and anything could happen."
Amano Lingzun snorted: "You are good at speaking, but there is another possibility, that is, you are lying."
Cheng Lingyu looked up at Amano Spirit Lord, with no fear on his face.
"Did Ling Zun say that I killed Ouyang Lie? Is this a way to polite me or belittle the blood martial master of Shenwu Sect? If this is true, I, a second-level blood martial cultivator who can easily kill even the third level of soul martial arts, is it worth Ling Zun to investigate his whereabouts?"
"Rareless! What's your attitude?"
The Spirit Lord of Amano was a little angry. Cheng Lingyu was calm and Cheng Lingyu questioned, how could this look like communicating with a Spirit Lord?
The spiritual masters on the Sunset City were secretly applauding themselves and were very satisfied with Cheng Lingyu's performance.
"Lord Lingzun has a lot, why bother with me?"
Cheng Lingyu was very calm, and he seemed to have done nothing wrong. I was afraid of you.
The city lord nodded secretly and liked Cheng Lingyu's calm response.
Communication is an art. With the same meaning, different expressions will bring different results.
Cheng Lingyu's neither humble nor arrogant attitude is naturally more likely to win the attention of those present.
"I'm here to find out the causes and consequences. Since you are involved in this matter, please answer truthfully."
Cheng Lingyu asked, "How do Lingzun hope I will answer? I admit that I killed Ouyang Lie, or did I hide him?"
Amano Lingzun said coldly: "Relax your whole body and open the door of your heart. I want to read your memories and be able to distinguish right from wrong."
Cheng Lingyu raised his eyebrows and said, "Why? I am a disciple of Sunset City. I have no obligation to help you find Ouyang Lie's whereabouts, and you have no right to ask me to do anything."
Amano Lingzun said angrily: "You dare to talk to me like this, are you tired of living?"
The city lord coughed lightly, breaking the situation in the hall.
"Young people don't know the height of their words, so don't be angry, brother Amano. With his strength, he may have hope of killing Ouyang Lie, but he is definitely not a match for Ling Zun. That's it."
Amano Lingzun said: "No, I have a intuition, he is hiding something. His answer is unscathed, and this is considered in advance."
The city lord said: "It may also be that what he said is true."
Amano Lingzun said: "Just read his memory, you will know if it is true."
"It's not good..."
"It is related to the whereabouts of a spiritual master of my Shenwu Sect. If this matter is not found out, Shenwu Sect will never stop. I will not hurt him. At most, he will rest for a day or two and his spirit will recover."
Amano Lingzun's attitude was a bit tough, and he actually wanted to forcefully read Cheng Lingyu's memory.
The city lord was a little unhappy, but before he could speak, another voice echoed in the hall.
"Why?"
These words are very cold, but they do not come from Cheng Lingyu's mouth, but from the entrance of this hall.
A black figure stood in the light, looking a little weird, but it was filled with a chilling indifference.
Amano Lingzun looked at the figure and slowly stood up and said, "I am from Shenwu Sect."
"This is Sunset City, not your Shenwu Sect."
At the entrance of the hall, the figure walked slowly, and the whole hall was trembling, feeling like the sky collapsed and the earth was broken.
The city lord stood up, and a slight fluctuation appeared in his tone.
"Han Cang, why are you here?"
"Let's see how the masters of Shenwu Sect bully my disciples from the Moon Shenling."
Han Cang's tone was cold, revealing provocation and ridicule.
Amano Lingzun is quite familiar with the masters of Sunset City, but he has never seen Han Cang, because he rarely walks down the Moon God Ridge and almost never goes out.
Feeling the indifference from Han Cang's body, the spiritual lights surged around Amano Spirit Lord, and a series of halos were quickly spreading open. A special time and space battle platform appeared under his feet, and his fighting spirit was rising step by step.
This is a festival where you are happy to see the hunter and want to fight.
Amano Spirit Master is extremely powerful and does not retreat in Sunset City.
The city lord was a little angry and shouted, "Brother Amano, what are you doing? Why don't you put it away quickly."
Amano Lingzun shook his head and said, "I have to read his memory today, no one can stop me."
Han Cang sneered: "If you dare to touch a piece of his hair, I will chop off your dog's head as a chamber pot."
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly became tense.
The city lord looked at Amano Spirit Lord and said in a deep voice: "You go, don't mess around here, you are not his opponent. If you anger him, you will die here today."
Amano Lingzun snorted: "You are going to unite and threaten me. Do you think I, Shenwu Sect, can be bullied?"
Seeing that Amano Spirit Lord had been slandering, the city lord said angrily: "Send out the guests!"
This made the atmosphere in the hall even more awkward.
Although Amano Spirit Lord is arrogant, he is still a little worried when facing the many Spirit Lords in Sunset City.
When he practiced to his level, although he was strong in character and was unwilling to admit defeat, he would not be stupid enough to seek death.
Originally, the reason why the Amano Spirit Master was so strong was mainly because Cheng Lingyu was too low. He believed that relying on his identity as a master of the Shenwu Sect and his acquaintance with the city lord, it was a trivial matter that was the size of a sesame and green bean.
Who would have thought Han Cang would suddenly appear, directly change the situation, and get obvious protection from the city lord.
This time, Amano Spirit Master was a little difficult to get rid of the tiger. He had to say some harsh words for the sake of face, but he angered the city lord and was driven away directly.
"For a disciple in the Soul Martial Realm, you Sunset City will regret it!"
Amano Lingzun left with her sleeves and let out a roar.
Han Cang fought back: "If you offended him, you Shenwu Sect don't even have the chance to regret it."
The city lord advised: "Forget it, say less, don't be as familiar with him. You haven't been here for a long time, please accompany me for a walk."
Han Cang hesitated for a moment, as if he was reluctant, and this reaction made many people not understand.
Cheng Lingyu and Lan Xiaozhu were sent away by Hua Mantian, while Li Xiang, Qi Wei and Fang Cuiyu each left.
This matter passed like this, and it was calm, but it offended the Shenwu Sect, which had certain side effects on Cheng Lingyu's future development.
To put it simply, this is equivalent to causing a big trouble, but Cheng Lingyu has no need to worry at the moment.
This is the benefit of becoming a disciple of Sunset City and having a backer.
After this incident, Lan Xiaozhu and Cheng Lingyu were a little angry at Li Xiang, Qi Wei, and Fang Cuiyu's kindness and revenge. If it weren't for them, how could Cheng Lingyu have offended the Shenwu Sect?
The days of cultivation were very peaceful, and Cheng Lingyu's strength was rapidly increasing. In just one month, Cheng Lingyu soared from the Three Cave Heavens to the Eight Cave Heavens. Each Cave Heaven was extremely solid and reached its peak.
The ability to have such a cultivation speed is all due to the Supreme Palace. The rich spiritual liquid wrapped around Cheng Lingyu's body, providing great help to his cultivation.
