Chapter 726: Evil Monk (3)
The ninth city is the city guard’s mansion.
This is a fortress with a simple and heavy shape, focusing on practicality and defensive capabilities.
The city defense mansion covers an area of more than ten thousand acres. Its four walls are higher and thicker than the walls of the ninth city in Zhenzi. The formations and prohibitions arranged there are more powerful, and the defense and lethality are even more amazing.
Such a mansion not only housed 120,000 regular city garrisons, but also thousands of officials at all levels in charge of daily administrative affairs. Even nearly one million "prisoners" of the same status as Yinyuan, who were at the mercy of others, were stationed here on weekdays.
Of course, all officials, big and small, and the 120,000 standing garrisons were all stationed on the ground.
Nearly one million prisoners from all over Liangyi Heaven who were banished to hell on earth where they would never be reborn for various reasons were imprisoned in a huge underground building.
Prisoners like Yin Yuan, who wore helmets and armor, patrolled the city, and allowed themselves to be driven, could get some fresh air outside every day. They were considered lucky. Many more prisoners were imprisoned underground for years, refining elixirs, refining tools, drawing talismans, making various cultivation tools, etc., little by little, slowly squeezing out the last bit of fat in their bones.
On the east side of the City Guard Mansion, there is a mansion that has just been vacated.
The Yuntai Temple, which Lu Yi had taken when he came, was suspended above the mansion. Thick clouds were rolling, and a hundred thousand monk soldiers were all sitting cross-legged on the Yuntai. The vast Buddhist light was connected as one, and it turned into a heavy pillar of light that completely enveloped the hundred-acre mansion below.
In the backyard of the house, next to a small flowerbed that was not well-tended and where the flowers and plants looked sickly and listless, Lu Yi, Yin Yuan and Bai Yuan were sitting in a small pavilion.
A group of young girls who were released from the dungeon of the Human-Faced Flower were busy flying around like butterflies flying among the flowers.
They brewed tea, offered fruits, and continuously sent various kinds of exquisite snacks and even various kinds of exquisite delicacies. Next to a small red clay charcoal stove, there were several large wine jars, and several young girls were busy scooping out fine wine and warming it in small wine pots. With the overflowing aroma of wine, they continuously sent various kinds of fine wine into the pavilion.
Lu Yi was drinking tea and occasionally eating a few dried nuts.
Yinyuan and Baiyuan showed no regard for their reserve. In front of Lu Yi, they didn't need to observe any etiquette or manners. The young couple ate meat and drank wine with big mouthfuls. As soon as the plates of beautifully presented dishes were served, they were eaten up in just two or three bites of chopsticks.
The body functions of a true immortal are extremely powerful. If they really want to eat, it would be extremely easy for them to eat hundreds of cattle and sheep in a day and a night.
Having just used the jadeite, jade paste, jade liquid, and even extremely old jade ganoderma brought by Lu Yi to nourish his body, Yin Yuan's limbs had grown back, and even his white turtle had regained his True Immortal status, and had directly climbed to the level of the eighteenth level of True Immortal!
With their current cultivation level, swallowing the immortal spirit is enough to satisfy all the body's needs.
But such wanton eating and drinking...
Lu Yi was secretly angry. Yinyuan had been an emperor, and Bai Yuan had grown up in Jianmen with fine clothes and delicious food. Now the two of them were eating and drinking like hungry tigers, which showed that they had been very exhausted in the past few years.
They are not hungry.
But I'm really greedy!
'greedy'!
This proves that they haven’t come across anything good in the past few years!
True Immortals, True Immortals, they are still human at heart, it is impossible for them to achieve "forgetting emotions". What's more, True Immortals have infinite lifespans and infinite time to squander. Generally speaking, for cultivators who have just achieved True Immortal status for less than a thousand years, when their urgent motivation and pressure to practice suddenly disappear, their desires that have been suppressed for countless years will suddenly surge!
For cultivators who have just become true immortals, their various desires, such as wine, sex, money, and power, will be hundreds or thousands of times more intense than when they were still mortal cultivators!
It is possible to eat and drink to your heart's content, indulge in alcohol and sex, even kill people without restraint and do many unspeakable things!
Yinyuan and Bai Yuan have enjoyed a life of luxury since childhood. After becoming true immortals, it is natural that they would have higher desires for wine, sex, money and power... But one can imagine what kind of life they have led in recent years. They have been suppressed for too long, and now it explodes all of a sudden. It is understandable that they behave like this.
They may even be venting their feelings by overeating.
Lu Yu, I can understand it.
Lu Yu did not speak either. He just held the teacup. When Yinyuan and Bai Yuan drank a cup of wine, he would accompany them with a sip of tea. When they ate a piece of food, he would accompany them with two nuts.
There were more than a dozen chefs outside who were violently hired. They were busy with pots and pans. Dishes made with all kinds of rare ingredients, such as dragon liver and phoenix gall, were being served in a continuous stream.
In this way, the couple ate in silence from the time the sun was directly overhead until it set, and then they ate until the full moon was at the center of the blue sky. Only then did the couple put down their chopsticks at the same time.
The white turtle looked up at the sky and laughed shrilly: "Hahaha, you can't kill me after all!"
Yin Yuan stood up, jumped out of the pavilion, tore off his outer coat with a "swish", and started to perform a set of "Tiger Subduing Fist" with punches and kicks. Even the most basic heroes in the martial arts world know how to do it!
With Yin Yuan's current cultivation level of the sixteenth level of the True Immortal Realm, he performed the Subduing Tiger Fist in a mess, with many loopholes, it was extremely ugly and completely unbearable to look at.
After beating them up like crazy, Yin Yuan sneered, put his hands behind his back, walked back to the pavilion slowly, and nodded at Lu Yi: "It's embarrassing. This time, if you hadn't come... I'm afraid we would..."
"Why is it so?" Lu Yi looked at Yin Yuan in confusion: "Sister-in-law's cultivation level is at the eighteenth level of the True Immortal Realm, how could it be like this?"
Yinyuan looked at Bai Yuan, Bai Yuan looked at Yinyuan, and then the couple shook their heads in confusion at the same time.
After a long silence, Bai Yuan said quietly, "We just ascended, and I'm pregnant. All our treatment is quite good... We are in the lower realm, and we don't practice very hard. Therefore, when we were refining the True Immortal status, my husband and I were only at the level of the first level of the True Immortal Realm."
"However, as long as you are willing to invest resources, you can quickly achieve success in the True Immortal Realm below the 30th level."
Bai Yuan frowned, blinking his triangular eyes, with a ray of extremely ferocious cold light in his eyes: "In just ten years, I took several top-level immortal pills whose names I have never heard of. At the highest point, my cultivation reached the 30th level of the True Immortal Realm! My husband was a little bit behind, but he also reached the 27th level of the True Immortal Realm!"
Lu Yi looked at the white turtle in horror.
To allow two rookies who had just ascended and condensed the status of the first level of True Immortal to reach the twenty-seventh and thirtieth levels in just ten years... Such means... Such consumption...
As a true disciple of the Prison-Suppressing Buddha lineage, Lu Yu was not one to envy or be jealous. If the Prison-Suppressing Xuanguang Buddha really needed it, he could also quickly train a group of similar junior masters in a very short period of time to serve as a mentor.
But this is not the right way!
The future achievements of disciples brought up in this way can almost be seen...How can one train disciples seriously in this way?
No wonder Bai Yuan only took a few hundred thousand year old jade ganoderma to make up for the deficiency, and then soaked in chalcedony for a while, and then quickly recovered to the eighteenth level of the True Immortal Realm... It turns out that her previous realm was far beyond this realm?
"But the good times won't last long." A look of fear flashed across Bai Yuan's face. "The child in my belly began to devour my energy and spirit like crazy. My cultivation, my realm, everything I have, was devoured by the child."
Yin Yuan patted Bai Yuan gently and said dryly, "Let me tell you what happened next. When Xiao Bai was still pregnant, we were in the Biluo Dao Palace, enjoying the treatment of the young palace master, calling the wind and rain, life and death, and having unlimited power."
"But everything changed when the baby came."
"That child sucked everything out of Xiaobai and forcibly beat her back from the True Fairyland to the Heavenly Man Realm." Yin Yuan said in a deep voice: "Many times, Xiaobai couldn't bear it, and I used my magic power and blood essence to replace her. My cultivation was also barely maintained in the True Fairyland."
"That's fine. Perhaps, the child of Xiaobai and I is an extremely talented demon?"
Yin Yuan looked at the sky thoughtfully: "As a genius, I can understand his weird behavior."
"But what we can't understand is that on the third day after the birth of the child, the child was snatched away from us... Lao Yu and the others were accused of 'colluding with foreign enemies' and demoted to mining slaves and sent to the mines to dig."
"Xiao Bai and I were scolded for 'not being able to control our subordinates' and were suddenly stripped of all our rights. Our treatment was reduced to that of slaves. In the Biluo Dao Palace, those Daoist sons and daughters who used to be submissive to us, a bunch of thieves and prostitutes, also attacked us... You can imagine what we went through during that period of time."
Yin Yuan exhaled a breath: "So, after more than a year of suffering, we still haven't figured out what happened. We were thrown into the Demon Suppression Ridge and demoted to prisoners, and we can never leave!"
Bai Yuan looked at Lu Yi with deep eyes: "It's really your fault, brother... If it weren't for your powerful background, you wouldn't have been able to seize the position of deputy city lord. According to the contract signed by the saints and Buddha, even if Buddha took action, he couldn't do anything to the prisoners in Demon Suppression Ridge."
"But, as the deputy city lord, you have to stay here for at least a hundred years!"
"A hundred years... a hundred years!"
Bai Yuan's expression suddenly twisted. She gritted her teeth and hissed, "Could it be that the two of us are just bait, and their real purpose is to get you to come to the Demon Suppression Ridge and let you guard it here for a hundred years?"
Lu Yi spread his hands and smiled disapprovingly: "Perhaps, but whether they use my elder brother and elder sister-in-law as bait to force me to come here and rule for a hundred years is not a big deal. I am very curious, after all, my elder sister-in-law is of such a noble birth, why..."
Yin Yuan looked at the white turtle in confusion.
He really didn't know why the couple had fallen to such a state.
Bai Yuan also looked at Yin Yuan with a confused look on her face. She also didn't understand why her biological parents would do such a thing to her!
During the time that the couple was in the Biluo Taoist Palace, they certainly acted arrogantly and recklessly, but the people they offended were all the disciples below them... As the only biological descendants of Taiwei Taoist Master, wasn't it only natural for them to act arrogantly and bully the disciples?
Just because of this?
Degrade your own daughter to become a prisoner in Demon-Suppressing Ridge?
He also took advantage of their friendship with Lu Yi and set up a complete trap to trap his daughter and son-in-law, forcing Lu Yi to helplessly seek the position of deputy mayor of the Ninth City to save them?
Why?
Why?
