"Have you heard that a shocking event happened in Xiyu City?"
"I heard that someone kidnapped Ji Wuhui and Leng Aoxue, which made Cheng Yu the God of Thunder furious. He is now searching the whole city for the perpetrator."
"It is said that many important figures from the Northern Continent came to Ji Wuhui's wedding. This person actually dared to be so rampant. I don't know who he is."
"I think he is either a desperado or a being more powerful than God Cheng Yu. Otherwise, it is impossible that even Cheng Yu can't do anything to him."
"That makes sense. I really want to see what this person looks like, to see if he has three heads and six arms."
"Don't be ridiculous. People like this are ruthless and cruel. I'm afraid that the moment we see them, they'll be dead."
"… "
As soon as he appeared in Tianmen Square, such discussions continuously poured into Wutan's ears, making him smile bitterly.
Calming himself down, he put his hands behind his back, bent over, hunched over, and walked towards the portal tremblingly.
The people around him also noticed his presence, but they only took a quick glance.
Portal.
Four Xuan Palace Ninth Tribulation law enforcers were guarding the door with sharp eyes and imposing manner!
When they saw an old man approaching, the four of them looked at each other, and one of them strode forward, his eyes softened, and he smiled and said, "Old man, where are you going?"
“Ahem!”
Wu Tian coughed a few times and said hoarsely: "Young man, I heard that a god has descended on Xiyu City, so I want to go and see what the high and mighty gods look like."
Hearing this, the four law enforcement officers were stunned.
The people around were also stunned, and the scene fell into silence, but the next moment, everyone burst into laughter.
"Old man, you really have wild imaginations. The gods are gods. How can you see them just by saying so?"
"That's right. Besides, with your body, you can't even walk steadily. Even if you see the Lord God, you will be scared to death immediately."
"That's right. Even we don't dare to go. You better not join in the fun."
The crowd advised one after another, but all with a mocking tone.
Glancing at the crowd, the four law enforcers frowned slightly, the displeasure on their faces clearly visible, but it was undeniable that what they said was true.
The law enforcer in front of Wu Tian smiled and said, "Old man, although their words are harsh, they are not wrong. You should go home quickly and enjoy your remaining years in peace!"
"Yeah, you're an old man, stop running around."
"If you don't know your own limits, you'll lose your life. I think you can live a few more years, so don't do anything foolish."
The crowd followed suit.
The law enforcer's face turned cold, and he shouted, "Shut up, anyone who dares to say another word will be killed without mercy!"
"Sir, we have good intentions too!"
"Yes, if we see an old man jumping into a fire pit and we don't help him, are we still human beings?"
The crowd began to protest, and as long as they were on the side of reason, they were not afraid of law enforcers.
The two parties talked for a long time, but Wutan, the person involved, didn't take it to heart at all.
However, he knew that if he didn't show some strength, he might not be able to go to Xiyu City today.
"Hehe, although I am old, I was also a man of great stature when I was young. You don't believe me? Well, I will let you see for yourself."
Wutan put his hands on his hips and twisted his body slowly, seemingly stretching his muscles, which amused the people around him.
"Old man, can you do this?"
"If it doesn't work, just leave now and stop showing off here."
boom!
Suddenly!
Wutan straightened his back, and a powerful aura suddenly burst out of his body, rolling in all directions like a torrent of beasts!
The sudden change startled the people around and they retreated instinctively.
The same goes for the law enforcer standing in front of Wutan.
"You young people, don't look down on us old people. Sometimes, old people should not be underestimated."
Wutan said this lightly, then he restrained his momentum, bent his waist, hunched his back, turned around and walked towards the portal.
When passing by the four law enforcers, Wu Tian laughed hoarsely and said, "You four are pretty good. I hope you can keep this mentality and keep working hard."
Then, he waved his hand, and ten million essences flew through the air, activating the portal, and walked in tremblingly.
The law enforcer who had been standing in front of Wu Tian looked at the old figure and said, "How strange! The aura he exudes is clearly only at the sixth calamity, but why do I feel so frightened?"
Another person also said: "I feel the same, as if I am facing a ferocious beast. It seems that this person is far from being as simple as he appears. He is probably a hidden master."
"Old man, please stay."
Suddenly, a clear and pleasant voice rang out.
Wutan looked back and saw a graceful and charming beautiful woman in white walking out of the crowd.
"The Second Venerable!"
Wu Tian was delighted. He didn't expect to run into Ye Yangxue here. He said hoarsely, "It's you. Come here quickly. Let's go to Xiyu City together."
"good."
Ye Yangxue turned into a stream of light and rushed in just when the portal was about to close.
Xiyu City, Tianmen Square.
At the moment, this place is also heavily guarded. They are all the law enforcers of the underground palace. Their faces are solemn and their eyes are sharp. They dare not be distracted at all.
Seeing Wu Tian and Ye Yang Xue appear one after another, one of the law enforcers shouted, "You two, leave quickly, don't stay here."
"Yes, yes, I will leave right away. Yang Xue, come and give this old man a hand." Wu Tian said.
Ye Yangxue was slightly stunned, then she understood and stepped forward to hold Wutan's arm, like a filial daughter supporting her father. While constantly reminding Wutan to be careful, she slowly walked towards the outside of Tianmai Square.
…
Jiyue Tower.
In a private room called Chunxiang Pavilion, Wutan and Ye Yangxue sat opposite each other.
The reason why Wutan chose to come here is because he believes in a concept that the most dangerous place is the safest place.
Looking at Wu Tian's current appearance, Ye Yangxue couldn't help but laugh and shook her head, "Wutian, after not seeing you for many years, you are still so hard to figure out."
"Really? I feel fine!"
Wu Tian nodded, as if he suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Second Venerable, how did you recognize me?"
"Haha, I watched you grow up. Do you think I can't recognize you?" Ye Yangxue said with a smile.
Wu Tian was stunned, looking at the beautiful woman opposite him, a long-lost sense of familiarity arose spontaneously.
Yes, if it weren't for the woman in front of him, the great venerable, Old Twelve, who lent a helping hand when he was in trouble, he would have turned into a handful of earth long ago!
Ye Yangxue thought Wu Tian was shocked, and said with a smile: "In fact, you pretended to be quite similar. I couldn't recognize you at first, but when you showed your momentum and shocked everyone, I saw your eyes, that kind of determined eyes, I have only seen it in you, so I knew that you are Wu Tian."
"I see." Wu Tian smiled and asked, "Second Venerable, you are with Shan Youde and the others, so why are you in Ximing City?"
"well!"
Ye Yangxue sighed softly and said, "I came here specifically to find you."
Wu Tian frowned, and only then did he notice that Ye Yangxue looked rather haggard. He was startled and asked hurriedly, "Did something happen to you?"
"Yes." Ye Yangxue nodded, stared at Wu Tian, and said: "Ye Yi and Cang Muxue are dead."
"What?"
Wutan stood up suddenly and looked at her in disbelief.
But he remembered that Jade-faced Candle Dragon was with the four people.
Before entering the heaven, Jade-faced Candle Dragon already had the strength of a great sage. With this strength, as long as he did not take the initiative to cause trouble and offend the heavenly and demonic soldiers, he would have no problem saving the lives of several people.
But now he was told that Ye Yi and Cang Muxue were dead, and he found it hard to believe it.
"well!"
Ye Yangxue sighed deeply again and explained, "We went to Donggezhou in the beginning. Everything was going well at first, but not long ago, when Jade-faced Candle Dragon broke through the Great Sage Minor Success Stage, a thunderstorm struck from the sky, which attracted the attention of the Heavenly Generals and Demon Generals of Donggezhou."
Wu Tian said: "And they became greedy and wanted to subdue the Jade-faced Candle Dragon?"
"That's right. Jade-faced Candle Dragon is an arrogant and unruly guy. Naturally, he would never surrender. So the two of them captured the four of us and used us as bargaining chips to threaten Jade-faced Dulong. Jade-faced Dulong refused to compromise at first, but when Ye Yi and Cang Muxue were killed one after another, it had no choice but to compromise."
Ye Yangxue sighed.
Wu Tian asked, "What about Shan Youde?"
"He is still in Donggezhou."
Ye Yangxue said that after the Jade-faced Candle Dragon surrendered, the Demon Generals and the Heavenly Generals were fighting for control and had no time to take care of them, so they just released them.
Afterwards, they thought of many ways, but none of them could rescue the Jade-faced Candle Dragon. So after some discussion, they unanimously decided to come to Xilingzhou to ask Wutan for help.
When it comes to life experience and foresight, Ye Yangxue is obviously better than Shan Youde. Therefore, the task of finding Wutan fell on Ye Yangxue, while Shan Youde stayed in Donggezhou to monitor the movements of the demon generals and the heavenly generals.
However, despite Ye Yangxue's extraordinary intelligence, she was unable to find out any news about Wutan. Just when she was about to give up, she suddenly remembered that Wutan had used the name Gu Yi in the Samsara Continent.
So, with a lucky mentality, she followed the clue and searched all the way, but later she learned that Gu Yi was dead. However, when she heard the details of the battle between Wutan and Ji Boyun, she immediately judged that Wutan was definitely not dead.
However, Gu Yi's clue was cut off because of this. In the end, she simply stayed in Tianmen Square in Ximing City, waiting for something to happen. Unexpectedly, she really waited for it.
"Aunt Ye, thank you for your hard work. Don't worry, I will find a way to rescue Jade-faced Candle Dragon!" Wutan clenched his fists and said solemnly.
