Chapter 517 Plot
Inside the stone house by the Forgotten River.
"Are there any spies in the camp?" Chen Mu asked Lu Liang.
Lu Liang sighed helplessly: "Qingyang City has been targeting Feng'an City for more than a hundred years. It will be difficult to completely eradicate it in a short period of time!"
"Don't be afraid." Chen Mu waved his hand.
"I will start monitoring the entire camp in real time in a moment."
"When we evacuate, I will use the Danshan Sutra to force everyone to stay together. If anyone uses the power of the Yin spirit to do something, I will be able to find out immediately."
"Whoever dares to leak the secret will be killed instantly by me!"
He turned to look at Lu Liang, his face solemn: "During this escape, any leak of secrets may bring fatal danger."
"So, if the person who leaked the information involves your confidant, I will not show mercy!"
"If something like that really happens, you'd better not stop it."
Lu Liang's face changed: "Do you suspect there is a traitor around me?"
"Of course!" Chen Mu nodded firmly.
"What if I made a mistake?" Lu Liang hesitated.
"Impossible!" Chen Mu shook his head firmly.
The person closest to you is betrayed by someone else, and then betrayed at the critical moment. This is how it is played in movies and TV dramas, how can it be wrong!
He narrowed his eyes and looked at Lu Liang, his face grim: "When the time comes, don't let your emotions get the better of you and protect the traitor."
"Otherwise... hehe!"
Lu Liang shuddered suddenly.
……
late at night.
An invisible wave slowly spread out, surrounding the entire camp.
Beside a campfire somewhere, a ghost who was sleeping with his clothes on, leaning against a rock, suddenly woke up with a start.
Before he could figure out what was going on, he was pulled away by an invisible force and turned into a ball of black smoke.
Then, it flew uncontrollably through the thick, god-obstructing fog, flew above the Forgotten River, and sank into a black cloud.
Immediately, wisps of black flames appeared, wrapping and surrounding the black cloud, and then the entire black cloud fell silently into the Forgotten River and disappeared.
In the pitch-black divine fog, countless black smoke-like things flew out silently, gathered into black clouds on the Wangchuan River, and then quickly fell into the Wangchuan River, wrapped in the Nine Nether Green Flames.
"The divine fog blocks the view, the breath-stopping magic power conceals the breath, King Wuyou? Ha!" With a sneer, Chen Mu's spiritual power vibrated, and a faint blue light bloomed in the palm of his hand. A circle of invisible power enveloped the surroundings, and the breath of several people was immediately concealed.
Then he activated the Danshan Sutra, and took Lu Liang Shangyang and others with him, turning into dark clouds and gloomy winds, and quickly fell into the Wangchuan River and disappeared.
The whistling breeze was swirling in the camp.
From time to time, there were crackling and popping sounds coming from the campfire.
In just a few breaths, the huge camp became empty.
……
Qingyang City, inside the main hall of the City Lord’s Mansion.
Xiao Jingbai was wearing a purple robe embellished with gold threads.
He sat on the dark gold chair above him, looking at Lu Chengshan below with a sinister expression.
"As soon as I completed the transformation into a Yin God, I was canonized by Yinshan Mansion, holding the Soul-Catching Pen and writing the Book of Life and Death, to guard the area."
"Chengshan, I really underestimated you."
"Over the years, you have been humble in front of me, but secretly colluded with Yinshan Mansion."
"Great acting, great scheming."
He spoke slowly and calmly, but his heart was filled with coldness and chilliness.
"I dare not say that." Lu Chengshan, wearing silver-black armor, smiled and said, "You and I are both generals under the command of Yinshan Mansion. It is natural for us to work for Yinshan Mansion. How can it be said that we are colluding with each other?"
"The city lord is so disrespectful to the Lord of the Mansion. Could it be that he has a rebellious heart and wants to rebel?"
"You traitor, you're telling me you're committing treason in front of me? Ha!" Xiao Jingbai stared at Lu Chengshan with sarcasm on his face.
"So, you have secretly sent the Nether Stone to Yinshan Mansion a long time ago. The news that it was hidden among the ghosts in Feng'an City was just a lie you made up to confuse people."
"Using your own son and the ghosts of a city as bait? Chengshan, you are really cruel."
"If Lu Liang knew the truth... he would be so heartbroken!"
Hearing this, Lu Chengshan raised his lips and showed a proud smile: "Guess who created the gate of hell for me, and who made this plan?"
Xiao Jingbai's expression changed.
After a long while, he spoke indifferently: "You gave birth to a good son."
"Unfortunately, I heard that Feng'an City is not very safe recently. If you go back too late, you might not be able to see me for the last time."
Lu Chengshan just chuckled.
"You mean King Wuyou?"
"City Lord, you said that I didn't save my son immediately after returning from Yinshan Prefecture. Why did I come here to offend you?"
"Although King Wuyou has many hidden dangers, he is still a ghost spirit embryo after all..." He smiled meaningfully.
Xiao Jingbai's face changed drastically.
He immediately closed his eyes and sensed, but found that the vague connection had completely disappeared without him noticing!
"How dare you use my foundation for enlightenment as a stepping stone to advancement?"
hum!
Invisible energy suddenly spread from his body, sweeping across the entire hall. The wooden doors and windows were blown away, and the tables and chairs in the hall were toppled over, leaving a mess.
Feeling the pressure all around him, Lu Chengshan's expression remained unchanged: "You don't think you've hidden yourself so well that no one in Yinshan Mansion knows about it, do you?"
"To tell you the truth, it was not me who went to collude with Yinshan Mansion, but Yinshan Mansion came to find me."
"That weird thing has long been spotted by someone."
"When I left Yinshan Mansion, someone went to the Wangchuan River. I'm afraid that King Wuyou is already on his way to Yinshan Mansion."
Xiao Jingbai's face turned ashen.
"roll!"
boom!
The air waves are rolling.
Lu Chengshan was immediately pulled out of the hall by Xiao Jingbai's sleeve, and rolled on the ground for hundreds of meters before he broke free from the lock of qi and stood up in embarrassment.
Glancing back at the hall filled with a cold and chilly atmosphere, he couldn't help but smile.
The old guy has been targeting him openly and secretly for more than a hundred years. Today he can finally get some revenge. How satisfying!
"It's time to go see my son."
"I heard that he recruited a great talent. Thanks to him, he was able to make many moves."
"You'd better meet him properly."
……
Two days later, by the Forgotten River.
Black smoke billowed up, and traces of fire and ice could be seen everywhere. The originally clean and tidy camp was now in tatters, as if it had been bombarded by a meteor shower several times.
"Just by looking at the aftermath of Yinshan Mansion's attack, I know that this Wuyou King is not a simple person." Lu Chengshan stood by the river and looked at him with a look of amazement: "Fortunately my son got away early, otherwise he would have been in great danger if he had been affected."
He didn't believe that the people in Yinshan Prefecture would care about the safety of everyone in Feng'an City.
"But there is no clue left. The Forgotten River is so vast that we can't find the direction even if we want to chase it."
"Young Master is very cautious and left clues. It would be bad if Old Ghost Xiao found out." A short, white-haired, childlike figure floated beside Lu Chengshan and advised with a smile: "Besides, those people in Yinshan Mansion are not trustworthy."
"What if he wants us to fight to the death with Old Ghost Xiao, sow discord between us, and then specifically target the young master? It's better to be cautious."
"That makes sense, Lu Lao Er, what you said makes sense!" Lu Chengshan nodded repeatedly: "The people in Yinshan Prefecture and Qingyang City are all bad guys!"
"Don't worry, big brother. Thirteenth brother is right beside you, young master."
"I have used the secret method of telepathy to contact Xiao Shisan. He will soon write back to tell us the meeting place." Lu Zhongjun, who has white hair and a youthful face, said calmly, "We just need to wait for a while."
And this wait lasted for five days.
……
Five days later, somewhere at the bottom of the Wangchuan River, Chen Mu glanced at Lu Shisan with a calm expression.
"No one can leak secrets under my nose."
"The fate of being a traitor is to have your soul torn to pieces!"
As he spoke, his eyes became fierce, and five black smoke-like dragon auras appeared and dissipated around him.
A black dragon head as big as a millstone suddenly appeared beside a black cloud not far away.
It reached into the black cloud and easily took out a cloud of black smoke. It raised its head, let out a short scream, and swallowed the black smoke into its stomach in a whoosh.
As the black light flashed, the steel and iron dragon head shrank and rotated, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"You want to play tricks on me? You're courting death!"
As he said this, he looked at Lu Shisan meaningfully.
Lu Shisan: “…”
I actually wanted to notify City Lord Lu to pick us up. I'm really not a traitor.
