Before Tielianggu’s laughter stopped, he suddenly felt a chill in his lower abdomen, and then a sharp pain swept through his sea of consciousness.
His laughter was still echoing, and then it turned into a scream.
Then, a cold voice appeared behind him.
The voice was so close, as if it was ringing right next to his ear, causing Tielianggu, who was in great pain, to have his hair stand on end.
"You're done!"
As soon as these three words fell, in front of Wutu and the tall woman's horrified gaze, everything in front of their eyes shattered like the moon in the water and the flowers in the mirror.
There was no trace of any enemy in the "Evil Spirits in All Directions of the Night" spell cast by Tielianggu. Those evil ghosts and resentful spirits were desperately tearing and attacking the empty void.
"Illusion attack!"
Wutu, who had been extremely calm all the time, suddenly cried out.
On the other side, a figure was clinging to Tie Lianggu's back. Tie Lianggu's eyes were wide open, with his eyeballs bulging out of his sockets.
His mouth was wide open, and the screams from his mouth turned into unconscious hisses, and a palm appeared from the front of his lower abdomen.
The palm was strong and thick, with five fingers stretched out flat, without a trace of blood on them, but there was a golden object the size of a soybean sandwiched between the index finger and the middle finger.
The golden elixir, the golden elixir of Tielianggu, a cultivator in the late golden elixir stage, had his golden elixir taken away by someone without his knowledge.
"you dare… "
"Brother..."
As soon as the two voices sounded, Li Yan's expressionless palm turned slightly, and his magic power burst out as he was withdrawn.
Tielianggu's body exploded without any warning and broke into pieces, raining blood all over the sky.
This fight lasted only about a breath and a half from start to finish, but this result was something the Tianlan cultivators had never expected.
At the same time, Li Yan's voice sounded in Zhao Min's mind.
"Wild Moon!"
Since Li Yan decided to take action, he told Zhao Min about his plan while flying.
He felt that the arrogant young man should be a person of a certain status in the Tianlan clan. Just by looking at the fake infant monk guarding him on both sides like a guard, he could guess that his status should not be low.
Moreover, the Jindan cultivators who began to surround him from behind should have been summoned by him, which further proved that he was of noble status.
Li Yan decided to focus on dealing with this person. Li Yan has always disliked fighting with others, and this method has always dominated his fighting style.
So he began to use his spiritual sense to quickly search for a suitable area while flying, while silently calculating the distance between him and Tielianggu and the others in his mind.
At some point in time, the direction of flight changed slightly secretly and quietly, but his action did not attract anyone's attention.
Soon it flew into the designated area, and Li Yan quickly spread the phantom poison in the fragmented poisonous body, which was the poison that had killed Dong Liqing.
He also told Zhao Min not to believe anything she saw after that, until he said the two words "Huang Yue" in a voice transmission, then she could be sure that everything she saw then was true.
Zhao Min once worked with Li Yan in the "Holy Demon City" to lure out Dong Liqing, so she knew about Li Yan's phantom poison. After experiencing it personally, she believed in Li Yan's methods.
When Li Yan saw Tie Lianggu and his men were about to approach the ambush area, he immediately counterattacked with Zhao Min.
In fact, even Zhao Min didn’t know how big the area where Li Yan set up an ambush was, and she didn’t even realize that she had unknowingly entered an illusion.
After Li Yan used the "Stealth at Night" technique to quietly leave, Zhao Min knew nothing about it and thought that Li Yan beside her was still his real self.
Even with Li Yan's previous hints, she didn't know whether it was true or not when she suddenly saw Li Yan being attacked by Tie Lianggu and unable to move.
She even really thought that Li Yan had been tricked by the other party first and was completely unaware of it.
So, she really wanted to rescue Li Yan. The more she did so, the more it became difficult for Tie Lianggu and the other two to find any flaws.
After Li Yan performed the "Stealth at Night" technique, he changed his mind after seeing the enemy's position and reaction.
He wanted to get rid of the gray-haired old man, who was the most threatening person here.
But when he got a little closer, the gray-haired old man seemed to sense something and moved his feet, and his spiritual sense swept around.
This forced Li Yan to stop approaching immediately.
"That old man is too sensitive!"
Li Yan had to give up the idea of attacking the gray-haired old man and quickly approached behind Tie Lianggu...
In the bloody rain, Li Yan's lips moved slightly. Zhao Min, who was far away, finally breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Li Yan's voice.
"Junior brother's phantom poison has become more unpredictable than it was decades ago, making it impossible to distinguish reality from illusion. I was completely unaware of when he left!"
Li Yan waved his sleeves and dispersed the blood rain in the sky. At this time, a sharp sound came from his fingertips.
"You...you...you dared to destroy my body. You caused a terrible disaster. You...do you know who I am?"
Li Yan moved his fingers in front of his eyes, and the golden beans pinched between his index and middle fingers emitted a surge of force in an attempt to break free.
On the surface of the golden bean-like elixir, Tielianggu's furious face appeared.
"Let him go soon, we can discuss other matters later!"
"Let my brother go!"
Two more voices came from both sides, and at the same time, an extremely strong pressure instantly enveloped Li Yan and Zhao Min.
Li Yan raised his chin, a dark light flashing on his body, resisting the pressure. He glanced at the gray-haired old man with frost on his face.
He didn't expect that even though he had the other party's golden elixir in his hands, the attitudes of these three people were still so tough.
"You chased the two of us for no reason, and now you want me to let him go. This is ridiculous. Why should I let him go?"
Li Yan's face was expressionless. He raised his hand, and the hand holding the golden elixir was surrounded by black air, ready to destroy it at any time. "He is Tie Lianggu!"
The grey-haired old man spoke word by word, and Li Yan was startled.
"What does he mean by this? Is he telling me that this person's name is Tielianggu and that he has a great background? It seems that I made the right choice to target him!"
Li Yan thought quickly in his mind.
"Boy, did you hear that
Let me go quickly, I can pretend that this incident never happened. I was only checking the foreign cultivators who entered the Tianlan clan.
Now it has been confirmed that you are not a spy from Tingyun Country. They don't have a Jindan cultivator as strong as you!"
Just as Li Yan was thinking, Tie Lianggu's voice came from the golden elixir again.
"This man named Tielianggu is not really arrogant. He knows how to judge the situation!"
Li Yan immediately made a judgment about Tie Lianggu in his heart. Although Tie Lianggu was still arrogant, Li Yan saw another side of this man.
Tielianggu's arrogance makes it easy for people to look down on him, but what he said is not really stupid and reckless.
He gave his reasons for hunting down Li Yan, and said that he would not seek revenge.
If it were a cultivator who knew Tie Lianggu's identity and who really came here to gain experience, he might consider whether this matter could be resolved.
At the very least, I had to make sure I could leave here safely.
After knowing Tie Lianggu's identity, there is a 50% chance that Tie Lianggu's golden elixir will not be destroyed, so as to avoid being endlessly hunted down by the other party.
However, Tie Lianggu and his companions now met Li Yan and Zhao Min, who didn't know much about the Tianlan tribe. The two of them had the same attitude towards their enemies and didn't like to have their enemies thinking about them the most.
"According to what you said, it means that everything before was a misunderstanding
Hehe, sorry, I can't let you go now. We have to wait until we are out of Tianlan Grassland and are sure it is safe!"
"You want to take me to Tingyun Country? That means you have no intention of letting me go!!"
Tie Lianggu's voice was heard again from the golden elixir, and his voice revealed extreme dissatisfaction.
If he was taken out of Tianlan Grassland by the other party, especially to the territory of Tingyun Kingdom, what would be his fate? Just thinking about it, he felt boundless fear in his heart.
The monks of Tingyun Kingdom wanted to eat his flesh alive, which was why he was arranged to be followed by a fake infant monk.
It’s not like he had not been assassinated by the Tingyun Kingdom before, but he is still safe and sound now, which is also the reason why Tielianggu basically limits his activities to the grassland.
With his current level of cultivation, it would be almost impossible to capture him in Tianlan Grassland.
What's more, Wutu is by his side. Unless a cultivator of the Nascent Soul level enters the grassland, he can be killed with one strike.
Both sides have a long heritage and have their own methods for detecting the aura of Nascent Soul cultivators. It is not easy for a Nascent Soul cultivator to break into the other's territory.
Moreover, even when those Nascent Soul monsters are in seclusion, they will separate a wisp of their spiritual consciousness or a clone to always pay attention to the movements of the other Nascent Soul cultivators.
"If you let him go, I'll make sure you can leave here safely!"
Wutu stared at Li Yan.
"Your promise?? I don't believe it, I only believe my own eyes!!"
Li Yan shook his head slowly, and as he spoke, he began to fly towards the south, completely ignoring Wutu and the other man behind him, whose breath was already unstable and their anger was rising.
"If you attract other monks again, Tielianggu will die!"
Li Yan didn't want to get entangled with the other party at all.
As he flew, a spiritual light flashed in his hand, which sealed the magic power and voice of Tielianggu's golden elixir, stopping his shouting.
Seeing that the other party did not immediately crush Tielianggu's golden elixir, Wutu quickly used his eyes to stop the woman who was about to snatch the golden elixir.
"No, this person is so decisive that he doesn't even give us time to discuss. Don't irritate him. Let's follow him!"
Junior Sister Tie Lianggu was anxious. Although she did not like what this senior brother did, her master asked her to pay more attention before he went into seclusion.
Now that this kind of thing has happened, if Tie Lianggu is really dead, how will she explain to her master
She never expected that in just a few breaths, Tielianggu fell into the hands of others and his body was destroyed. Everything happened too suddenly.
Fortunately, Tielianggu has never possessed another body before, so there is still a chance for him to do so. However, he can only practice in seclusion for the next hundred years.
"That's good too. With this lesson, Senior Brother will remember this calamity and be able to concentrate on cultivation!"
She thought to herself and quickly followed.
At the southern border of the grassland, Bart glanced at the northern sky and said to Baru.
"Didn't Tielianggu say before that they would show up soon? There has been no movement yet. Ask them!"
Baru immediately took out a small red grass and was about to transmit the message when he suddenly stopped.
"Someone is flying over here!!"
"Hmm? Why doesn't it look like a chase? There are four people in total. That Sen guy might be hiding in the dark. Where's Tielianggu?"
The two looked at each other, with a look of surprise and doubt on their faces.
Although the four people who were approaching quickly in the spiritual sense were flying very fast, they did not look like they were chasing each other. It seemed more like the two sides were deliberately keeping some distance between them while being on guard.
What surprised them most was that Tielianggu was not among them. Tielianggu had always been the one in charge of their previous contacts.
Bart immediately put the red grass to his mouth, and his lips moved quickly in silence.
Soon, the red grass trembled slightly. After Bart swept his spiritual sense over it, he raised his head in surprise.
"We don't need to ambush the enemy. Tielianggu has been held hostage by the enemy!"
