When Wutan and the other two arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, they learned that the Shadow Guard Commander had left early ten days ago because he had personal matters to deal with.
The person sent to lead the way was a purple-clad shadow guard.
This man has a tall stature, extraordinary appearance, and an arrogant demeanor, especially his long red hair, which is like a burning flame and is particularly eye-catching!
Upon seeing Wutan and the other two arriving, he just announced them and then happily chatted with the little devil, simply ignoring the three people as air.
Wutan and the other two didn't care. They just sat on the chairs nearby and drank their tea.
After half an hour, the purple-clothed shadow guard finally stood up, looked at the three people, and said calmly: "My name is Qing Shuxing, and I will be responsible for taking you to the film city and arranging your accommodation."
Upon hearing this, Sikong Yanran stood up and bowed, saying, "Thank you, brother. I..."
However, before she could finish, Qing Shuxing waved his arm and interrupted her, saying calmly: "I am not interested in knowing your names. Just remember one thing: I am the boss on this journey, and you must obey me."
Then, he looked at Wu Tian expressionlessly and asked, "Are you Li Feng?"
"Why do you ask when you already know the answer?" Wutan smiled faintly.
"Humph!" Hearing this, Qing Shuxing snorted coldly and said disdainfully: "I advise you to be obedient. Don't think that you can do whatever you want just because you have some strength and essence. Let me tell you, in the movie studio, if you don't honestly keep your duty, I'm afraid your life will be in danger."
"A dog should have the awareness of a dog. Just lead the way honestly. Why are you talking so much nonsense? Also, whether we should just do our duty or not is none of your business!" Cang Zheng smiled coldly and retorted.
"Well!"
Wutan and Sikong Yanran looked at each other in bewilderment. The Shadow Guard Commander only asked Qing Shuxing to lead the way, but Cang Zheng compared him to a leading dog. How could he say such words that hurt people's self-esteem
"You really don't know how to live or die." The little devil sneered in his heart, folded his arms, and waited leisurely to watch a good show.
Qing Shuxing was also stunned, and then, the anger in his heart could not be suppressed and burst out. He glared at him fiercely and said gloomily: "If you have the guts, say it again!"
Cang Zheng's face suddenly darkened, and he challenged him rudely: "What? What if you say it again? Do you think I will be afraid of you just because you stare at me with a pair of dog eyes? You useless dog in the minor stage, do you believe that I will suppress you immediately?!"
Because of Wutan, he was already full of anger, and Qing Shuxing had been challenging his bottom line again and again from the very beginning, which finally made Cang Zheng's anger burn, and he was ready to fight if they disagreed.
Qing Shuxing's aura was spreading, and it seemed that a fight was about to break out. Unexpectedly, he suddenly smiled faintly, and his aura was completely restrained. He said meaningfully: "Little brother, you are still young. It is best to think about some words before you say them, so as not to bring about fatal disasters."
"I'm going to return this sentence to you verbatim. I'll also add one more thing. Don't take my low profile as a basis for your arrogance. A dog should behave like a dog." Cang Zheng responded with a clear and unfriendly look on his face.
"I'll let you run wild for now. Once we get to the movie studio, you'll have a good time." Qing Shuxing was filled with murderous intent. He glanced at the little devil beside him and shouted, "Let's go!"
“Hehe! I believe that after you go to the movie studio, you will live a very comfortable life.” The little devil sneered, looking at the three people with eyes that showed his gloating, and then followed Qing Shuxing, without waiting for Wutan and the other two, he soared into the sky and disappeared.
"I'm also looking forward to the upcoming days at the movie studio. I guess they'll be very exciting." Cang Zheng chuckled, and the meaning of his words was very clear. He would not stop until this trip to the movie studio turned everything upside down.
The two little demons were in front, and Wutan and his three followers were behind. They always kept a distance from each other, and it seemed that they didn't like each other very much.
Two hours later, the five people arrived above a mountain one after another.
This mountain range is very vast, with a radius of more than 100,000 miles. It is full of overlapping mountains, crisscrossing each other, mountain streams shrouded in clouds and mist, and lush ancient trees. All kinds of birds and beasts fly and gallop in it. It is like a fairy mountain, very spectacular!
"I finally arrived at the movie studio, brother, please wait for me." Looking down at the majestic mountains below, the little devil was very excited.
When I was a child, I had the same dream as my brother, which was to enter the film studio and become a strong man respected by the world no matter what. My brother succeeded a thousand years ago. A thousand years later, he finally came here and took the first step on the road to becoming a strong man.
"stop."
Just as the little devil was daydreaming, he suddenly heard a low shout. The little devil stopped and looked at Qing Shuxing in confusion, saying, "Brother Qing, why did you stop so suddenly?"
Glancing behind him intentionally or unintentionally, Qing Shuxing sneered, "Some people still want to go against me, and they don't even think about who knows the movie city better. Any random word is enough to cost them their lives."
The little devil's eyes lit up and he asked in surprise, "What do you mean, brother?"
"Yes, I changed my mind. I want them to die in this mountain range before they even enter the film studio!" Qing Shuxing said, with a terrifying murderous intent flashing in his eyes.
"Hehe! That's great."
The little devil nodded repeatedly and grinned evilly. It was definitely the best way to kill these three annoying bastards right in the middle of the journey.
Because of this, the Shadow Guard Commander could not seek responsibility even if he wanted to. After all, it was their own fault for not being strong enough and unfortunately dying at the claws of the ferocious beast, so they could not blame anyone else.
When Wu Tian and the other two approached, Qing Shuxing glanced at them and said calmly, "The Shadow Guard competition is just an elimination round. If you want to become a true Shadow Guard, you have to go through a life-and-death test. Do you see this mountain range? The end of the mountain range is the Shadow City. As long as you can pass through here safely and reach the Shadow City, you will be considered qualified."
"There is such a rule?" Sikong Yanran frowned. Although she was not familiar with the movie city, she was very clear about the rules for electing the shadow guard. There was no such rule at all.
There was nothing unusual on Wutan's face, but he was secretly searching Fengmo's memory. As a result, he found that, just as Sikong Yanran said, there was no such rule at all. It was obviously added by Qing Shuxing himself.
As for the intention, it is already very obvious.
Qing Shuxing nodded and said, "Of course, this is the rule issued by the commander-in-chief last year. If you have any doubts, you can go directly to the movie studio. If you fail, you will be sent back the same way. Don't blame me for not reminding you in advance."
"Haha! Of course I believe what you say, brother Qing." The little devil laughed and said, "Thank you for your care along the way, brother Qing. I am very grateful. Goodbye!"
After saying this, he ignored Wutan and the other two, turned into a stream of light, and disappeared directly into the vast mountains.
Seeing this, Sikong Yanran seemed to want to say something, but at this moment, Wu Tian gave Qing Shuxing a subtle wink, then bowed to him and said, "Since these are the rules set by the commander, we should abide by them. See you later."
"See you later? Haha! How naive of you to be."
Qing Shuxing sneered in his heart, but on the surface he showed no abnormality. He said with a smile: "Although you are not to my taste and even made sarcastic remarks, I am still looking forward to your performance."
"In that case, shouldn't we be grateful to you?" Cang Zheng raised the corner of his mouth and said coldly: "It's better not that you are behind this. Otherwise, even with the protection of the Shadow Guard Commander, I will make you bleed on the spot!"
"There is no point in talking more, let's go!" Wutan transmitted the message, grabbed the chattering Cang Zheng, and he and Sikong Yanran turned into two streams of light and quickly merged into the mountains.
"Haha, if you want me to be killed on the spot, wait until you can walk out of the Devil's Mountains alive!" Looking at the disappearance of several people, Qing Shuxing finally couldn't help laughing.
"So this is the Devil's Mountain Range." Suddenly, the little devil appeared out of thin air beside Qing Shuxing, staring at the mountains below. His tone was solemn, and his eyes were filled with shock and fear.
"Not only here, the entire mountain range below belongs to the Devil's Mountains, and the movie city is right in the center of the Devil's Mountains, but it is covered by the illusion ban and cannot be seen by the naked eye." Qing Shuxing said.
The Devil's Mountains are the most dangerous place in the Dark City, with many ferocious beasts. Moreover, it is rumored that the soul of a devil is sealed in the Devil's Mountains, and anyone who approaches will be eaten alive.
Qing Shuxing and the Little Devil looked at each other, sneered, and then both quickly disappeared from the spot.
In a primitive forest, Sikong Yanran looked around, her dark eyebrows knitted into a line, and finally looked at Wu Tian and said, "Master Li Feng, I always feel that we have been deceived."
"Yes, we were deceived." Wutan smiled faintly.
"What?" Cang Zheng was stunned, and immediately said angrily: "You bastard, if you knew it earlier, why didn't you take the opportunity to kill that bastard?"
"I understand what Master Li Feng means." Sikong Yanran suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Qing Shuxing has made up his mind to kill us. Even if he fails this time, there will be a next time. Master Li Feng probably saw this, so he chose to obey."
Wu Tian nodded in appreciation and said, "Qing Shuxing was sent by the Shadow Guard Commander to lead the way. He cannot be killed for the time being. Instead of constantly being on guard against his plots, it is better for us to go to the Shadow City ourselves."
"Hmph! You have a point, but this matter is definitely not over." Cang Zheng snorted coldly.
"Let's go!" Wutan shook his head, looked in a direction, and then he rushed away in a flash.
"Where are you going? Do you know where the movie studio is?" Cang Zheng hurriedly chased after him, asking puzzledly.
Wu Tian smiled faintly and explained: "When I left before, I separated a wisp of soul power and wrapped it around Qing Shuxing's robe, so I can sense the direction he is going. By the way, Miss Yanran, do you know the name of this mountain range?"
Sikong Yanran shook her head, with confusion in her eyes.
Seeing this, Wutan didn't ask any more questions. He rushed through the forest at lightning speed, quickly chasing in the direction where the soul power disappeared.
Half an hour later, Wutan's brows gradually frowned, because he felt that the soul power was getting farther and farther away from him and was about to disappear in his perception.
This is obviously unreasonable. The speed of the three people is not slower than Qing Shuxing. Logically, they should be getting closer and closer.
"Stop!" Wutan suddenly stretched out his hand and shouted in a low voice, stopping above a low hill. Then, ignoring the puzzled looks of Cang Zheng and Sikong Yanran, he closed his eyes slightly and carefully sensed the location of the soul power.
"Is that possible?!"
Suddenly, Wu Tian cried out in surprise, and his eyes suddenly opened, as if he had discovered something horrifying, filled with disbelief...
