Sunset City.

The howling night wind made the corners of Hai Linjun's clothes rustle.

He was wearing a thick war robe and a blue cloak, like the general who defended the city in Sunset City. He stood on the city wall, looking at the city defense formation that was close in front of him, but its structure had changed, with deep eyes. , as if thinking about something.

Behind him were several other heads of the seven major families in Sunset City, standing in the rear as if they were serving the Hai family.

After that, there are the elders and elites of the Hai family and the other seven major families...

As for Ding Hui, he was also in the Hai family's queue, but he was in a quite far back position.

After all, she can only be considered a family member of the guest, and logically speaking, she is not even qualified to appear here. However, Ding Hui has already demonstrated her ability and is highly valued by the Hai family, so she naturally has her current place.

"Report!!!"

The urgent news came and attracted everyone's attention.

but……

"My lord, Lord Shengyuan, they have urgently tested the city defense formation, but no matter what the test, all the results show that... the city defense formation, everything is normal!"

When Hai Linjun heard this, his expression did not change.

On the other hand, Coach Ma, who heard the report from behind, his face darkened.

everything is normal?

Then why does it start suddenly!

They even trapped everyone to death in the city!

The function of the city defense formation is to defend the city, not to trap the city. To trap everyone to death in the city, that is called the blockade formation!

"Master Hai, it's just that the formation suddenly changed. There's no need to mobilize troops like this, right?"

The head of the Ke family was woken up by an emergency report in the middle of the night, and it seemed that he was still awake.

"The change in the formation is really weird. Could it be that there is some big demon around and activated our city defense formation?"

The head of the Qing family also raised a possibility.

But the rest of them frowned and remained silent.

Because the city defense formation has always been maintained by Qingling Taoist Temple.

If there is a problem with the city defense formation, it can only be a problem with Qingling Taoist Temple.

What kind of existence is Qingling Taoist Temple? It is a terrifying existence that can suppress the entire city with the power of one party, or one person.

If there is a problem with the formation and someone has done something wrong, the consequences will be unimaginable!

The worst assumptions came to mind, but no one dared to ask the question head-on.

Only a lot of people secretly cast their sights directly in front of them, the majestic back of the Hai Family Patriarch.

Could it be...that it would really be what he said...

Shaking their heads slightly, everyone quickly shook off this dangerous thought.

At the moment, the formation was suddenly activated and there was no danger around, so they still had time to consider countermeasures.

"Since Lord Shengyuan has sent people to test the formation, we should also send some people to help."

The head of the Qing family spoke, and the heads of the other seven major families also responded.

There is strength in numbers. Since we don’t know what’s wrong with the formation, then send more people to detect and repair it. Once the formation is fixed, the problem will naturally be solved.

Everyone seems to be interested in thinking about the problem in a simple way.

But Hai Linjun went straight to the core of the problem and made a shocking statement.

"I have sent people to control all the remaining people in Qingling Taoist Temple."

The faces of the other family heads changed.

"Master Hai?! Why is this?"

"Master Hai, don't be impulsive. Release everyone in Qingling Taoist Temple quickly. If Taoist Master Qingling comes back and finds out about this, he will be misunderstood!"

Hai Linjun turned around, revealing half of his calm profile, staring coldly at these timid people.

"Only Qingling Taoist Temple can access the city defense formation. There is something wrong with the formation right now. If not them, who can we arrest?"

There are six remaining family heads. You look at me, I look at you, but they are all silent.

Hai Linjun then continued to look down from the city wall, leaving his back to everyone.

"Everyone, don't be confused anymore. You should know better than me what is going on with Taoist Qingling now. He is going crazy!"

Crazy.

Crazy of course.

It is possible for people to do crazy things when they are about to die.

That's why they wanted to stabilize Taoist Qingling and let him pass away naturally.

We don’t even know the situation of the city defense formation now, but you suddenly want to force people to a dead end. Doesn’t this force us to make a choice?

The head of the Qing family has an ugly face. He has been a smooth person all his life. What he hates to do the most is to be forced to take sides and make a clear distinction between right and wrong.

The rest of the family heads are similar.

After so many years in Sunset City, who doesn't know how terrifying Taoist Priest Qingling is, and who doesn't know the ambitions of the Hai family.

But Zhigui knew that if they were to directly resist Taoist Qingling openly, it would cost them all their wealth and the lives of everyone in the family. Therefore, this kind of thing can only be done slowly and secretly in private. .

But now, the situation seems to be a little out of control.

"Master Hai, your plan is no different from destroying Sunset City."

Finally, after a brief silence, someone spoke.

But what he said made Ding Hui, who secretly used the demon organ to eavesdrop, feel a little troubled.

These guys, in order to fight against Taoist Qingling, what methods are they preparing? They actually say that they are somewhat sure that they can fight against Taoist Qingling.

"Everything only exists in theory for that guy Sheng Yuan. You trust that guy too much! Once there is a problem with the operation, all of us in Sunset City will be buried with your madness! Then you will be as crazy as you were before you died. What's the difference between Taoist Priest Qingling?"

The head of the Ke family also spoke, with the same objection.

"Master Hai, don't force us. Things haven't reached that point yet, and we won't make the final decision easily before we know what happened."

Ding Hui was confused.

These guys seemed to have made some preparations to fight against Taoist Qingling, but the specific preparations were all well hidden.

As for the city defense formation in front of them, Fang Yu had told them that the formation when Tianyuan Town was destroyed was quite similar in performance, both were internally blocked.

Strange.

One may be a coincidence, but it's hard to say for the other two, especially Tianyuan Town and Sunset City. In fact, from the map perspective, they are not too far apart.

Could it be that these two kinds of city defense formations are actually the same thing? Or the same formation foundation?

It seems that the ancient formations were unreliable. If they were modified casually, they would become a blockade formation.

Ding Hui became interested in it and planned to study it in the future.

At this moment, Ding Hui noticed that the heads of the seven major families in front of them all stopped arguing and looked in a certain direction.

Ding Hui secretly looked in that direction with the eyes of a demon, and saw a guy wearing a Taoist robe, walking towards Sunset City step by step in the night.

It was the arrival of this person that interrupted the conversation among the seven family heads and plunged the scene into silence.

"Qing Ling... Taoist Priest..."

Someone murmured something and revealed the identity of the person coming.

Ding Hui frowned.

Taoist Priest Qingling, didn't he leave with Diao Deyi's expedition team? Why is he the only one back now? Could it be...

Ding Hui's expression changed and he clenched his fists.

Although she believed in Fang Yu's strength, the fact that only Taoist Priest Qingling was back now inevitably made her think too much.

At this moment, Taoist Priest Qing Ling, who was under the city wall, stopped, raised his head, and looked at each other from a distance through the translucent barrier of the city defense formation with the head of the Hai family on the city wall.

"Has it started? There's not much difference in time. How about it? Everyone, do you like the gift I gave you?"

Taoist Priest Qingling's voice was calm, but it reached everyone's ears clearly.

But just such a sentence made everyone change their minds on the spot! The whole scene seemed to be exploding, and some people screamed in fear.

"Lord Qingling, is this weird defensive city really your handiwork?"

"Taoist Priest Qingling, don't be ridiculous, quickly restore the formation to normal so that we can open the city gates and welcome the Taoist Priest back."

"What are you talking about... Priest Qingling, what are you talking about? What's wrong with you? Are you controlled by a demon? Where are the others? Why didn't they come back with you?"

Taoist Priest Qingling ignored these questions and just looked at Hai Linjun on the city wall.

Among the lights of thousands of houses and the vast sea of ​​people in Sunset City, there was only one person, only this man, who truly threatened him.

But, it’s not enough.

The gap in strength makes this threat always just a threat.

What really troubled Taoist Priest Qingling was his own physical condition!

His enemy is himself!

"Hai Linjun, and the rest of you, don't worry. I won't kill everyone. I just want Qingling Taoist Temple to still stand on this land after thousands of years, and still... He is just the uncrowned king of Sunset City."

As soon as these words came out, everyone knew that Taoist Qingling was going to do something big.

All the family heads shouted quickly.

"Master Qingling, don't be impulsive! We are willing to recognize Qingling Taoist Temple as our king!"

"Qingling Taoist Temple has always been the real overlord of Sunset City, no matter in the past or in the future, it will not change!!"

Everyone wanted to appease Taoist Priest Qing Ling.

But it's useless. Taoist priest Qingling knows what human nature is like, and he also knows how to solve it once and for all.

The city defense formation will protect his successor Lei Qingzi, and he will only release the seal when he grows strong enough in the city.

During this period, no one in Sunset City will surpass Lei Qingzi in terms of strength and talent.

Because the existence beyond Lei Qingzi will be obliterated by him tonight.

The other people's voices, to Taoist Priest Qingling's ears at this moment, were just noises.

Only Hai Linjun deserves his attention.

Because this person is the only threatening enemy left in Sunset City.

"Is there anything you want to say? Hai Linjun."

Hai Linjun on the city wall let out a long sigh after hearing this.

"Taoist Master Qingling, you and I will eventually have this battle. But I didn't expect that it would unfold in this way, let alone that you would reach this point. It's simply... heartbreaking!"

Taoist Priest Qingling smiled.

Morality cannot restrain him.

The moment he took this step, the only thing that could restrain him was his fist! Stronger fist! Harder punch!

Smiling, Taoist Priest Qingling walked to the city defense formation.

Under the gaze of everyone on the city wall.

Taoist Priest Qingling raised his hand and placed it on the formation.

Then……

Nothing happened.

Taoist Priest Qingling's smiling expression gradually solidified.

"how so?"

The transformation of the formation will protect Sunset City into a more powerful internal and external blockade.

Outsiders can't get in, and people inside can't get out. It's like a paradise.

For this purpose, Taoist Priest Qingling had already laid out a sufficiently cyclical production system within Sunset City, and subtly improved Sunset City. This improvement was made possible by Lei Qingzi's name. Finally, it has been optimized and accelerated.

All that's left is to control the number of people and ensure that this internal cycle of ecosystems can be maintained without interference.

But now, there is a problem with the formation.

Because now, he can't get in.

This is impossible, because after the city defense formation is improved, he will be the one with the highest authority, with the authority to come and go freely, and he can transfer this authority to his successor Lei Qingzi at any time.

But right now, something is wrong, a big problem.

"I'm surprised, your formation doesn't obey your command."

The sound on the city wall made Taoist Priest Qingling raise his head.

"what have you done?"

Hai Linjun's paralyzed expression finally changed slightly.

"This is probably the first time that I have been looked at by you like this. It's simple. You are too arrogant, Taoist Qingling. You are so arrogant that you ignore some people."

"What's the meaning?"

"The formation was designed and improved by you, but the implementation into every detail is the result of the cooperation of many people."

Taoist Priest Qingling suddenly understood and was stunned on the spot.

"You...incited my people? Impossible! Those people are all loyal to me, how could they betray me! As the head of the Hai family, what conditions can you give them to betray me!"

Hai Linjun smiled.

"It's not me who makes them betray you, it's you, Taoist Priest Qingling!"

"I?!"

Taoist Priest Qingling was at a loss.

"Don't you understand yet? Everyone knows that you are going to die! Everyone knows that you are at the end of your life! You are going to die. You want to embrace others and die together with Sunset City. You want to transform the formation, and you want to do something big! But Others don’t want it! You are arrogant and think you have everything under control, but you ignore the simplest and most fundamental human nature!"

"The grand formation in Sunset City was indeed transformed by you, and the transformation was successful. It was approved by you, and what I did was just make some small improvements based on your work."

Taoist Priest Qingling frowned.

The operation and maintenance of the formation in Sunset City have always been maintained by his subordinates from Qingling Taoist Temple. In other words, those people have long been instigated to rebel!

Taoist Priest Qing Ling, who understood everything, exhaled.

"Really, originally I just wanted it to be simple, but I didn't expect that something went wrong. But...do you think I'm really helpless?"

Raise your palm and take the photo!

The spiritual...cutting technique! !

Bang! ! !

A wave of blood-colored steam, centered on Taoist Priest Qingling's palm, spread along the entire Sunset City formation, spreading instantly to every corner of the formation, and also affecting...some people!
