Chapter 283 Going to the Eternal Heaven

No matter how much the guards pleaded, Ling Yi simply watched without making a move.

Seeing that Ling Yi had no intention of letting them go, the guards went from begging for mercy to hurling insults.

"what!"

As more and more people were mutated, the guards had nowhere to hide and were eventually torn apart.

After everyone inside the room had undergone metamorphosis, Ling Yi looked at the city lord and beckoned, "Come here."

The city lord walked over.

Ling Yi looked at the approaching city lord and said, "Kneel down."

The city lord knelt down as if he were a puppet, obeying the order.

Ling Yi looked at the city lord kneeling in front of him, placed his hands on both sides of the city lord's head, pressed the head and twisted it, and the sound of bones breaking rang out.

The city lord's neck snapped, and his body fell backward, crashing to the ground with a thud.

Ling stood up, looking coldly at the corpse on the ground. He raised his hand and sent down a ball of flame, which landed on the city lord and quickly ignited.

Ling Yi didn't look again, turned around and left the house.

The flames gradually spread from the city lord's body, then the furniture, the house, and other rooms, turning into a sea of ​​fire, and finally engulfing the entire city lord's mansion.

The fire at the city lord's mansion attracted people from surrounding mansions. At first, everyone was afraid that the flames would spread and endanger them. Later, they discovered that there was a barrier that would prevent the flames from spreading to them. While everyone was relieved, they began to be shocked as to who had burned down the city lord's mansion.

The people of Twin Cities know that the city lord is not a good person, not to mention the owners of the mansions near the city lord's mansion.

The city lord is a scoundrel, and his youngest son is even worse. A few years ago, he abused a child and was retaliated against. Although the city lord is a scoundrel, he is good at currying favor and has dealings with the Nangong family, the most powerful family in Cangdu. The Nangong family intervened and saved the city lord, but the family that lost their child was unwilling to accept it and insisted on killing Cheng Xu, who killed their child.

The city lord had no choice but to arrange for someone to escort his youngest son away, but something went wrong on the way, and there was no further news of the youngest son.

Over the years, the city lord had been searching for his youngest son. They dared not say it out loud, but in their hearts they all hoped that Cheng Xu would die outside. As for the city lord's mansion, no matter how dissatisfied they were, they dared not say anything. They never expected that someone would destroy the city lord's mansion!

Where did this incredibly kind person come from?!

News of the burning of the city lord's mansion spread rapidly. After the fire was discovered, many people went to watch the spectacle and observed from all directions, but no one was seen running out.

This means that, apart from those who were outside, no one from the city lord's mansion escaped!

Very good!

While everyone was watching the show, they were also wondering who was so bold as to destroy the city lord's mansion?

As the news spread, everyone quickly realized it was Ling Yi and his group. After all, the events at the riverbank were widely known, and it was precisely because they knew the city lord would retaliate against those people that the inns at the riverbank dared not let them stay.

They thought they would face retaliation from the city lord, but they never expected that the city lord's mansion would be destroyed!

"I heard they came from Qizhou. Are all the people from Qizhou this powerful?"

"Even with high cultivation, one shouldn't be so reckless, right?" someone said. "After all, he's the city lord. Every city lord is appointed by the realm lord. Everyone always thinks that the city lord is bad and is causing trouble behind the realm lord's back, but if the realm lord is good, how could he appoint someone without investigating?"

"The city lord is dead. I see many people are happy, but to me, there's nothing to be happy about." The speaker's voice was heavy. "Who knows what the next city lord will be like?"

"This……"

Upon hearing this, the initially happy people fell silent.

Indeed, in a territory, the lord of the territory is the most powerful. The lord of the territory will not allow the appointed city lords to escape his control. Those city lords must have people planted around them. The people know what the city lords of the Twin Cities have done. How could the lord of the territory not know?

In reality, not many people thought the Lord of the Realm was unaware of the situation. They just didn't want to have a Lord of the Realm who was like a tyrant, after already having a Lord of the City who was like a bully.

That would make people even more desperate.

Everyone is just deceiving themselves.

"Why think so much?" In the silence, someone said, "We really don't know what the next city lord will be like, but this city lord has done all sorts of bad things. Now that the entire city lord's mansion has been destroyed, isn't that a warning to the next city lord?"

"Let him know that if he does too many bad things, someone will eventually catch him."

"Too."

"Besides, the death of this city lord is something to be happy about. Can't we worry about what happens afterward?"

In the past, the people would never have dared to gather together to discuss the city lord like this, but now, the raging fire gave them courage.

Amid the chatter of the people, Ling Yi emerged from the mansion, climbed back onto Little Golden Tiger's back, and said to the group, "Don't stay here. Go find an inn nearby and wait for me."

Ye Qingshuang asked, "Are you going to stay here?"

"Hmm." Ling Yi's voice was calm: "Check it over after the fire has burned out."

Since she intended to wipe out everyone in the city lord's mansion, she wouldn't allow them to leave alive.

Furthermore, it's impossible for all the people in the city lord's mansion to be in the mansion. There must be some who have been sent out to do things. Although she thought that normal subordinates would not seek revenge after their master's family was destroyed, what if they did?

If there is one, that's her unlock point, and we can't waste it.

After listening to Ling Yi's words, Ye Qingshuang said, "Three days is enough. We'll come to pick you up in three days."

"Alright." Ling nodded, then flew away and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

The little golden tiger flew away, and Ling Yi, unafraid of the flames, chose a spot on an artificial hill to sit down and asked Tian Yan, "How many people are there?"

Tianyan Dao: [The current statistics are incomplete.]

"Then let's wait until the fire is over to do the math." After saying that, Ling Yi sat down cross-legged, took out the Destiny Chart and placed it beside him, and began to cultivate.

While Ling was focused on his cultivation, news of the burning of the Twin Cities City Lord's Mansion spread rapidly to all corners of the land.

...

The fire at the city lord's mansion burned for three days. By the time Ling Yi stopped cultivating, the fire had subsided considerably.

When it was almost time, Ling Yi stopped cultivating and began to carefully explore the mansion.

During the search, quite a few people were found who had managed to hide using magical artifacts and escape the calamity, but it wasn't a big problem. They had managed to evade the attack, so she could just kill them later.

One, two, three...

More and more people who had been hiding were found, and all of them were killed by Ling Yi. However... after finding the secret door and going down the secret passage, they came out in an unfamiliar place.

Ling Yi looked at the messy grass, her feelings were somewhat complicated.

It's her fault; she forgot about the secret passage.

Those who know about the secret passage and can escape through it are all the city lord's trusted subordinates. Will these people come to avenge the city lord?

If they can, it's okay if they escape; if they can't, it's a bit of a pity.

After observing the weeds for a while, Ling Yi returned to the city lord's mansion, blocked the secret passage, and then continued searching for people.

The city lord's mansion was too large, and Ling Yi searched it carefully, taking almost ten days to finish. After confirming that no one had escaped, Ling Yi went out to bring in Ye Qingshuang, who had been waiting there.

After Ye Qingshuang entered, she asked Ling Yi, "What do you need me to do?"

Ling Yi said, "Purify."

Ye Qingshuang was a little surprised: "You mean my purifying power can remove those poisons?"

"Hmm." Ling Yi said, "Those poisons are very weak and can be purified."

Ye Qingshuang didn't ask any more questions. She opened her hand, and the flute appeared in her palm. She began to purify it.

The flute music carried a purifying power, and wherever it passed, the subtle and barely noticeable black mist was purified. Once completely cleared, Ling Yi led Ye Qingshuang away from the city lord's mansion.

After they came out, Ye Qingshuang asked Ling Yi, "Where to next?"

Ling Yidao: "Eternal Heaven."
