The difficult path of cultivation for a grassroots female practitioner

Chapter 560: We Can Only Wait

A group of people appeared in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion again.

The male cultivator noticed that the only person in the group who was at the same realm as him was an acquaintance. The other two were at the Void Refinement Realm, and the other three were at realms unknown, like ordinary people without any cultivation.

But it is impossible for a mortal to appear here, and the natural and casual expressions of these three people can only mean that they are also high-level monks.

So, what mistake did he make to attract so many great monks?

Therefore, after the male cultivator was released, before anyone took the initiative to ask questions, he bowed deeply to Xiao Han and said with a very aggrieved tone, "My fellow Daoist, although I was nosy and tried to stop you, I was attacked by you in the end, but I didn't do anything to you. You really don't need to ask this senior to vent your anger on you, right?"

Xiao Han: What the hell is going on? Besides, if I'm in trouble, I can call on these big guys to back me up, unless I'm the daughter of God.

She laughed dryly, "You're mistaken, fellow Daoist. They're the ones looking for you."

Tianjizi quickly said, "Just tell me how you got back from the Yunwu Mountains?"

The male cultivator was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously replied, "He came back just like that!"

Shui Wuhen suddenly released a trace of pressure, enveloping the male cultivator, and said in a cold voice: "Tell me clearly, what did you see after you fell into the abyss?"

Under this pressure, the male cultivator's heart suddenly trembled and cold sweat dripped down his face. He no longer dared to have any luck or perfunctory mentality.

"I vaguely remember that when this fellow Daoist and I were trapped in the abyss by a fog that blocked our spiritual consciousness, I saw a stunning beauty. When I regained consciousness, I had already fallen to the bottom of the abyss. Then I saw a strange formation."

Seeing everyone staring at him intently, he paused, swallowed, and continued, "I'm a formation master. Seeing prey, I immediately went up to take a closer look. I discovered that this formation is very similar to the Six-Rank Starlight Soul-Calming Formation recorded in ancient books. However, I don't know if this formation has been worn down due to its age."

At this point, he seemed a little embarrassed, his voice stammering, "Later, uh, later, a very pleasant voice whispered in my ear, saying that as long as I could break this formation, she would follow me."

Tianjizi thought of the succubus who had fled to who knows where, and glared at him angrily, "So, you broke the formation?"

The male cultivator nodded fearfully.

Ji Shuang said with a bit of disbelief, "Even if this formation has been destroyed and damaged after millions of years, it shouldn't be something you can break, right?"

The male cultivator shrank his neck and whispered, "My master once gave me a one-time array-breaking treasure, the Breaking Array Pearl. The array was already a little damaged, so I used the Breaking Array Pearl to destroy it directly at the damaged part."

Ji Shuang looked at everyone helplessly and sighed, "This is her chance."

Everyone understood that the "she" Ji Shuang was referring to was the succubus.

Everyone was silent. Indeed, some things were just so coincidental. If the male cultivator wasn't a formation master, or didn't have a treasure to break the formation, the succubus wouldn't have escaped in time. Once they arrived, they could summon a formation master to come and seal it again.

At this time, Xuanyuan Heng asked, "What did you see after the formation was broken?"

The male cultivator said, "After the formation-breaking bead exploded, the formation suddenly lit up with a blinding light, then completely went out. Then, a pink shadow appeared within the formation, and a woman's loud laughter emanated from it."

He paused and continued, "I felt something was wrong, as if I had released something bad, so I thought about destroying it, but I quickly lost consciousness.

Then, when I regained consciousness, I was already standing on the streets of Yunwu City."

At this point, everyone knew everything that happened at the bottom of the abyss, and they were 100% sure that the succubus had completely escaped and possessed the male cultivator. After arriving in Yunwu City, it moved on to another possessed object.

As for who it is possessed by now and whether it is still in Yunwu City, there is no way to know.

Tianjizi was very frustrated. He had been alert and proactive enough, but he was still a step too late. He glared at the male cultivator with hatred and asked everyone, "What should we do with this guy?"

Shui Wuhen said, "Let's lock him up in the City Lord's Mansion first."

Although everyone knew that the male cultivator had been bewitched by the succubus and had broken the formation, and his crime was not punishable by death, it was impossible to let the culprit off so easily.

We can only lock him up first, and then punish him depending on the severity of the damage he has caused to the Yuantian Continent.

City Lord Ye immediately called for someone to take the male cultivator, whose face looked as pale as death, away.

Tianjizi asked everyone, "What should we do next?"

Ji Shuang thought for a moment and said, "Everyone should pay more attention from now on. If you find any trace of the succubus, immediately surround and eliminate it secretly."

Then, she stretched out her hand in front of Tianjizi and said, "Give me the soul-calming talisman."

Tianjizi muttered, "It's difficult to draw the soul-calming talisman successfully. You have to use it sparingly."

As he spoke, he took out a yellow talisman, handed it to Ji Shuang, and explained how to use the soul-calming talisman.

Shui Wuhen looked at Tianjizi, who immediately said, "Men will only be charmed by her, not possessed by her. Just stick to your original intentions."

Xuanyuan Heng rolled his eyes. "We have the soul-suppressing talisman to deal with the cultivator possessed by her. As long as we seal it within the cultivator's body, then dealing with her will be easy."

Tianjizi smiled wryly and took out two soul-calming talismans and gave them to him and Shui Wuhen.

As for Xiao Han, the little Nascent Soul, Tianjizi didn't expect her to help capture the succubus, so he didn't give her the soul-calming talisman.

Now that things have come to this, all we can do is wait for the succubus to show up.

Several people left together. City Lord Ye respectfully escorted them out of the City Lord's Mansion. Seeing Xiao Han was about to leave, he hurriedly spoke to persuade him to stay, "Fellow Daoist Xiao, please stay for a while."

Xiao Han remembered that City Lord Ye once said that he would have a good chat with her after finishing the serious business, so she stopped in her tracks.

After these big guys left, the two returned to the main hall. City Lord Ye personally poured a cup of tea for Xiao Han, which made Xiao Han a little flattered.

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, you don't know that it was because I read those articles you wrote in the military newspaper that I took the initiative to go to the Arctic Ice Field to resist the alien monsters without receiving any call-up orders. So, I have always wanted to know what kind of person this cultivator who can write so many passionate articles is."

Xiao Han smiled awkwardly, "Senior, you must be very disappointed after seeing this this time, right?"

City Lord Ye shook his head. "Not really. The fact that you were able to notify Tianjizi immediately after discovering the peculiarities of this soul shows that you are very cautious. The fact that you were able to avoid being possessed by the succubus also shows that you are quite extraordinary. I truly admire you."

Xiao Han: I never thought that I, Xiao, also have fans with ten times the filter.

City Lord Ye introduced himself, and Xiao Han learned that City Lord Ye’s real name was Ye Ling.

Ye Ling talked to her about some of the things that happened when they resisted the alien monsters, and they got along very well.

The main reason was that Xiao Han felt that Ye Ling was the kind of hot-blooded monk who had a strong sense of justice and was easily instigated.

Xiao Han flattered her subtly and echoed her somewhat idealistic views on justice, which immediately made Ye Ling regard her as a close friend.

When she was done chatting and Xiao Han was about to leave, Ye Ling said, "If you need any help from me in Yunwu City, just let me know."
