When Xu Nian and the others arrived at the City Lord Mansion in Feixian City.
They found the gates tightly closed, with strict security.
Above the entire City Lord Mansion, a layer of top-tier defensive Immortal Array enveloped it.
The power of this Immortal Array, even an Immortal King Level would need so ti to break through.
"What’s going on?" Gongsun Qing asked in surprise.
"Sothing must have happened at the City Lord Mansion, we should go up and ask to find out." Xu Nian said.
Gongsun Qing nodded and went forward to knock on the door of the Feixian Mansion.
The door of the Feixian Mansion was opened, and a pair of guards charged out.
Each of these guards was holding Immortal Swords, watching Xu Nian and the others with strict vigilance.
Following that, Xu Nian and the others saw a middle-aged man in Immortal Armor walk out from inside the gates.
"Who are you?" The middle-aged man’s gaze swept over Xu Nian and the others before imdiately shouting.
Xu Nian glanced at these guards and found that they were all at the Profound Immortal Level.
As for the leader of the guards, his cultivation is unexpectedly not low, having reached the Golden Immortal Early Stage.
Such strength, yet willingly serving as a guard, is indeed sowhat surprising.
Even as a guard leader, it shows that Feixian City possesses extraordinary strength.
"General, we are the nephew and niece of City Lord Yan Chang of Feixian City, I’m Gongsun Qing, and she is Gongsun Wan’er." Gongsun Qing imdiately said.
"The City Lord’s nephew and niece?" The guard leader was sowhat surprised, then took out a Communication Immortal Talisman, seemingly transmitting inquiries.
Soon, a middle-aged man in gray attire walked out from inside the gates.
"Qing’er, Wan’er? Why have you co?"
The middle-aged man was overjoyed upon seeing Gongsun Qing and Gongsun Wan’er, smiling as he spoke.
"Wan’er greets Uncle." Gongsun Wan’er hurriedly greeted.
"Haha, Wan’er is getting more and more beautiful." Yan Chang laughed.
"Uncle, we were planning to return to the family and happened to pass by here, so we decided to co and see." Gongsun Qing said.
"I see, since you are here, stay longer at Uncle’s place so Uncle can properly entertain you." Yan Chang smiled.
His gaze filled with affection as he looked at Gongsun Qing and Gongsun Wan’er.
Xu Nian could see that Yan Chang truly cherished this pair of siblings.
However, what surprised Xu Nian the most was that Yan Chang’s cultivation had reached the Immortal King Peak Level.
This is the highest cultivation level Xu Nian has seen in a City Lord.
"Who might this be?" Yan Chang asked, looking at Xu Nian.
He had t Gongsun Ling before and knew he was an old servant of the Gongsun family.
But Xu Nian was completely unfamiliar to him.
"His na is Xu Nian, a disciple of Shendang Mountain. This ti, he accepted our commission to escort us back to Tianwu City." Gongsun Qing replied.
"Oh? A disciple of Shendang Mountain, escorting you back to Tianwu City?" Yan Chang revealed a hint of doubt.
Because he noticed that Xu Nian’s cultivation was only at the Late-stage Golden Immortal level.
With Gongsun Ling present, what need was there for a disciple of the Late-stage Golden Immortal level to escort them?
However, Yan Chang did not display any disdainful expression, calmly smiling and saying, "So it’s a disciple from Shendang Mountain, welco, welco, in that case, please co inside together."
With those words, he invited Xu Nian and the others into the City Lord Mansion.
"Uncle, earlier I saw a group of won urgently flying toward your City Lord Mansion, has sothing happened?" Gongsun Qing asked while walking.
"Indeed, there have been so issues. Those won are disciples of Turquoise Pool. Recently, a batch of Demon Cultivators has erged in the city, targeting the Turquoise Pool female disciples. Many Turquoise Pool’s female disciples have unfortunately t with disaster, and even an Immortal King was injured. Those disciples just now are the disciples of the injured Immortal King." Yan Chang explained.
"Demon Cultivators? How could they appear within our Immortal Realm?" Gongsun Qing asked in astonishnt.
Between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm, there is not only a natural barrier but also strong guardians.
It is generally impossible to cross the boundaries.
Yet now, not only has one Demon Cultivator appeared, but a batch of them, it’s indeed strange.
"We haven’t figured out how they arrived yet. These individuals’ strengths vary, with the lowest at the Profound Immortal Realm and the highest reportedly at Immortal Sovereign Level. Their true purpose seems to be searching for sothing or soone rather than simply targeting female disciples." Yan Chang stated.
"Are these Demon Cultivators hard to capture?" Gongsun Wan’er asked.
"Very difficult. They are all skilled in concealing techniques and can change their own aura, making them indistinguishable from ordinary Immortals. So during this period, it is better for you to stay inside the mansion and avoid going out." Yan Chang advised.
Gongsun Qing and Gongsun Wan’er both nodded.
"Since we’re here, we’ll naturally stay longer with Uncle." Gongsun Qing smiled.
"Yes, I want to have fun with Uncle as well." Gongsun Wan’er smiled.
"Haha, no problem, stay as long as you want," Yan Chang laughed heartily.
Then Yan Chang looked at Xu Nian and said, "Brother Xu, since you are here, make yourself at ho and treat this as your own mansion."
"Thank you, City Lord!" Xu Nian smiled.
Yan Chang’s enthusiasm increased Xu Nian’s goodwill towards him.
After that, Xu Nian and the others were arranged to stay.
Xu Nian got a courtyard, Gongsun Wan’er got a courtyard, and Gongsun Qing and Gongsun Ling shared a courtyard.
The City Lord Mansion is undeniably vast.
Besides that, many Turquoise Pool female disciples also lived within the mansion.
These female disciples were each remarkably beautiful and attractive.
However, Xu Nian kept a low profile and rarely encountered them.
...
At this mont, not far from the residence where Xu Nian stayed, in a large mansion, many female disciples were gathered.
These female disciples were young and beautiful, stunning in appearance.
At the center of these female disciples were two won of exceptional beauty, as if capable of captivating any nation.
One wore green clothing, the other white.
The green-clothed woman already outshone all others.
But the white-clothed woman’s beauty and temperant overshadowed the green-clothed woman’s brilliance.
Coldly beautiful and pristine.
At present, this white-clothed woman was looking nervously at a beautiful woman lying on the bed.
The beautiful woman’s face was pale, unconscious.
"Master has been poisoned by the Demon Cultivators’ Thousand Insect Poison, which cannot even be removed by Immortal Power. The poison has begun to invade her Immortal Embryo, and before long, she will..."
The green-clothed woman said to the white-clothed woman.
Upon hearing this, the white-clothed woman’s expression turned grief-stricken.
"Is there no solution to this poison?" the white-clothed woman hurriedly asked.
"The poison is too potent. Only when my husband intervened and combined it with a top-grade Revival Pill was the poison suppressed; otherwise, Master would have died already." The green-clothed woman stated coldly.
The white-clothed woman frowned.
"Currently, there is only one way to save Master." The green-clothed woman continued.
"What way?" the white-clothed woman hastily asked.
"The Immortal Treasure Pavilion has a miraculous pill called the Revival Pill, which can cure all poison. However, the eldest son of the Immortal Spirit Pavilion has a condition—he will only give us the pill if Junior Sister agrees to marry him." The green-clothed woman said, narrowing her eyes.
Her eyes showed a deep jealousy.
However, upon hearing this, the white-clothed woman’s face changed, and she imdiately refused, saying, "No, I already have a husband; I cannot marry soone else."
