Leng Shiqi and Hong Guangji were both surprised by the sudden arrival of people from the Discipline Commission. However, since they were already here and their status wasn't low, Hong Guangji had no reason to not receive them.
Hong Guangji looked at Leng Shiqi with a slightly troubled expression, "Lord Liu …"
Leng Shiqi cupped his hands, "The Head Commissioner of the Discipline Commission has arrived. Sect Master Hong, please help yourself."
"Lord Liu, please forgive us." Hong Guangji called over a Spirit Aperture Realm elder, "Elder Qing, accompany Lord Liu."
Then Hong Guangji went to receive the Head Commissioner of the Discipline Commission. Elder Qing said, "Lord Liu, this way please."
Not long after, Leng Shiqi and the others arrived at a dark underground room. Leng Shiqi looked around and found that there were all kinds of formations and restrictions here.
This should be where the beast was locked up.
At this time, Elder Qing took out something that looked like a key and opened up a door in the layers of formations.
He said, "Lord Liu, the beast is inside. However, this beast is abnormally fierce and has strange methods. Even with restrictions, it's still dangerous. It's best if Lord Liu doesn't get too close."
Leng Shiqi nodded silently and walked through the door. Guan Feihong waited in place.
As soon as he stepped in, he immediately sensed Nine Leave in the illusion world. So even though he didn't see it, he knew that it was Nine Leave that was locked up here!
Leng Shiqi raised his head and saw hundreds of golden chains intertwined in the air to form a cage. Inside the cage, there was a Demonic Beast that was half the height of a human curled up.
It was Nine Leave!
Just as Leng Shiqi was wondering why Nine Leave was actually captured, Nine Leave's voice appeared in Leng Shiqi's mind.
"Eh, Leng Shiqi, why are you here?"
Leng Shiqi heard that Nine Leave's tone was very relaxed. It didn't seem like he was about to be publicly killed and become a tool for the Wind and Thunder Tower to gain reputation.
Leng Shiqi couldn't help but recall the time when Nine Leave was being hunted down by the people of Extreme Fire Manor. Nine Leave had also appeared relaxed and content.
He wasn't sure if Nine Leave had deliberately allowed himself to be caught.
"Senior Nine Leave, how did you get captured by the Wind and Thunder Tower?" Leng Shiqi communicated with Nine Leave through the Spiritual Illusion Realm.
"Hmph."
Nine Leave let out a disdainful snort. "If I don't get caught, I won't be able to escape the pursuit of a large number of masters in the East County.
Moreover, the Wind Thunder Tower did not capture me. I came here on my own accord.
Otherwise, how could that bastard Hong Guangji catch me? "
Leng Shiqi thought about it and agreed. Although Nine Leave was a Rank Four Demonic Beast, if she wanted to escape, Hong Guangji really couldn't do anything to her.
However, Leng Shiqi was even more confused. Since Nine Leave wanted to use the Wind and Thunder Tower to avoid being hunted down, he should have achieved his goal by now. Why was he still staying here?
Leng Shiqi didn't believe that this restriction could really control Nine Leave.
As if seeing through Leng Shiqi's thoughts, Nine Leave said, "Since you're here, it means that the Demon Extermination Conference of the Wind and Thunder Tower is starting today, right?"
"That's right. Most of the people outside have arrived. It will probably start at noon.
Senior Nine Leave, do you want me to think of a way to help you escape? "
"There's no need. I don't care about this array formation. I'll just send a fake body out later.
Let me ask you. With so many people here today, the masters of the Wind and Thunder Tower should have gone out to welcome the distinguished guests, right? "
Hearing this, Leng Shiqi's heart skipped a beat. He seemed to have guessed Nine Leave's intention.
Nine Leave was probably eyeing the treasures hidden in the Wind and Thunder Tower again!
However, it was indeed as Nine Leave said. As there were many distinguished guests with high status present today, the sect master and many elders of the Wind and Thunder Tower were also receiving the guests.
Leng Shiqi replied, "Everything is as senior expected."
"Hmph, very good."
Nine Leave said with satisfaction, "Since you're here, help me out later. You don't have to give me the resources you owe me."
Don't have to give?
Leng Shiqi was secretly shocked. He owed half of the resources to the Nine Leave Profound Yang Sect!
Nine Leave actually said he didn't want it!
It could be imagined that what Nine Leave wanted must be an extremely precious heavenly treasure!
However, Leng Shiqi still couldn't agree directly. He still had to ask clearly first, "Senior, can you tell me specifically what you need me to do?"
"Originally, I planned to use the Illusory God Technique to fake my death and then get something.
But that thing is also surrounded by array formations and restrictions, and there is also a Spirit Astral Realm cultivator guarding it.
According to my original plan, I wanted to end the battle quickly and take the treasure before the masters of the Wind and Thunder Tower could react.
Now that you're here, it's even simpler. You are now at the Spirit Aperture Realm and proficient in illusion techniques. You should have a way to hypnotize the person next to you. "
Leng Shiqi glanced at Elder Qing. Since they came in, Elder Qing had been standing behind Leng Shiqi.
This person's cultivation was similar to Leng Shiqi's, at the middle stage of the Spirit Aperture Realm. Leng Shiqi still had some confidence.
"Yes."
"Very good. Later, you can hypnotize him directly. I'll leave an illusory body here to set up first. This way, the chances of success will be higher."
Leng Shiqi nodded silently. Then, a green ring with a ferocious appearance quietly appeared on his finger. It was the seventh level spiritual weapon, the God of Poison Ring!
Immediately after, a majestic and pure mental strength surged out. Leng Shiqi turned around abruptly, and his eyes flashed with five-colored light!
In Elder Qing's eyes, the scene of heaven and earth changed instantly. Four heavenly deities looked down on all living beings.
Elder Qing's eyes suddenly widened, and his gaze became unfocused.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Nine Leave's purple light flowed and left an identical demon body in place. She went directly to Leng Shiqi's side.
Nine Leave glanced at Elder Qing and said in surprise, "This move of yours is quite impressive. The array formation outside can sense my aura. Put away my corporeal body and bring me out first."
Then, a green shadow rushed out from Nine Leave's body and entered Leng Shiqi's illusion world.
Leng Shiqi immediately put away Nine Leave's body, and then he made the same expression as Elder Qing.
After about half an incense's time, Elder Qing finally recovered. His face was pale, and a layer of sweat seeped out of his forehead.
He first looked at the cage in the air and was relieved when he found that the demon beast was still trapped inside.
At this time, Leng Shiqi also "woke up". He immediately said with a bit of shock, "Elder Qing, what happened just now?!"
"This demon beast is very strange. It can control people's souls. We might have fallen into its trap just now!
Lord Liu, let's quickly leave this place. "Elder Qing said with lingering fear.
"Okay, let's go!"
