Sima Feng casually asked about the residence of the city lord's brother-in-law, and Zhang Chen immediately knew what Sima Feng was going to do.

When the two of them left the teahouse and walked around the city, Zhang Chen said to Sima Feng:

"Coming here, I felt uneasy. I was worried that we might be in danger."

"Are you saying that someone is setting a trap for us?"

Sima Feng turned and looked at Zhang Chen.

"It's very likely. After all, we just killed a prince in Yanyun County. They will definitely be prepared."

Zhang Chen analyzed it calmly.

"You're saying that you don't agree with taking action against the city lord's brother-in-law tonight."

"We must be careful, for fear that this is a trap set by them."

"It's not such a coincidence, is it?"

"I don't know either. My mind tells me that the best option is for us to leave here immediately."

Zhang Chen said this calmly, and looking at Sima Feng's expression, he knew that he was not very willing.

"Now that I'm here, I can't bear it if you ask me to let him go."

Sima Feng's eyes were determined, and it seemed that he had decided to go.

"Then let's find a place to rest and make some plans."

Zhang Chen looked around and walked towards an inn.

Soon it was night, and Zhang Chen handed a piece of armor to Sima Feng.

"Put this on so you can defend yourself if you encounter an enemy."

Sima Feng took it, looked at it and then put it on.

"is you?"

"I have it too."

Zhang Chen patted his chest. The one he was wearing was taken from Lu Zhi in Hanyuan, while the one Sima Feng wore was obtained from Jin Biao in Wuyun City.

Then the two of them began to walk towards the place of the city lord's brother-in-law. They had asked for the address during the day. Along the way, they would occasionally meet people who went to the city lord's brother-in-law's house to give gifts.

"When we get there, we won't go in together. I'll meet you outside, and you can pretend to be delivering a gift. Get rid of that guy and leave quickly. Don't get entangled or delayed. I'm always uneasy, so you must pay attention to your safety. If you notice something wrong, retreat quietly. You don't have spiritual energy, so if there is an ambush, they shouldn't pay much attention to you."

Zhang Chen gave instructions as he walked, carefully observing his surroundings to see if there was anything unusual.

"it is good."

Sima Feng nodded, and soon arrived at a busy mansion. Seeing people coming in one after another, Zhang Chen said to Sima Feng:

"I'll be waiting for you here on the side. If anything happens, remember to run here."

Zhang Chen pointed to a hidden corner next to the mansion.

Sima Feng took a look and nodded, then walked towards the gate carrying the prepared gift. The silk robe Sima Feng wore today was very gorgeous, and he looked like a local rich man. He walked to the door and handed the gift to the person waiting at the door to greet him.

"This person looks unfamiliar. What do you do? Do you have an invitation?"

The servant who asked the question had an arrogant look on his face and asked impatiently.

"I'm a silk dealer in the city. I came here specifically to congratulate you, but I forgot to take the invitation."

Sima Feng walked over with a smile and quietly handed over a piece of silver in his hand.

The servant put the silver into his pocket calmly and spoke in a much more friendly tone.

"Go in, and don't walk around the mansion casually. Many important people are here today. Don't offend anyone by accident. That would be troublesome."

Sima Feng sneered barely perceptibly and then walked into the mansion.

Watching Sima Feng enter the mansion, Zhang Chen also came to a hidden corner, then used the water-hiding technique, jumped onto the mansion wall, found a hidden place, and observed everything in the mansion.

At this time Sima Feng walked through the gate and followed some people who were giving gifts. He walked in and came to a hall. He saw many people gathered together, waiting for the bride and groom to get married.

Sima Feng looked around and asked the people around him and found out that it would take another half an hour before the auspicious time for the wedding ceremony. Sima Feng could only wait. After all, the mansion was so big that if he searched slowly, not only would he waste time, but he would also be easily discovered.

What Sima Feng and Zhang Chen didn't know was that at this moment, a figure riding a sword was flying over the mansion. It was Wang Cheng. He was flying around the city on the sword, but he was not flying aimlessly. Instead, he was flying around several mansions, including official mansions like the City Lord's Mansion and the Chief Secretary's Mansion, as well as evildoers like the City Lord's brother-in-law.

Moreover, people are deployed in every place to release fireworks to warn if any abnormality is found.

Xiao Yi and Wang Cheng have been in Jiuyuan County for more than half a month and have a clear understanding of the situation in the city. They know that if Zhang Chen and Sima Feng come to Jiuyuan County, they will definitely take action against some of the people they are paying attention to, so they just need to wait and see around these few families.

Time passed slowly, and soon it was the day of the city lord's brother-in-law's wedding. Then a servant shouted loudly.

"The auspicious time has come!"

Suddenly festive music began to be played in the mansion. A man in his forties, wearing a red robe, with a sly smile on his face, walked out of the side room holding a red silk ribbon. Behind the silk ribbon was a bride wearing a red veil. The hall immediately became lively.

Sima Feng looked at the bride's figure carefully. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew and lifted the bride's veil. Although it was just a quick glance, Sima Feng still saw the bride's appearance. She looked about sixteen or seventeen years old, with a beautiful face. She was indeed pitiful.

But there was no happiness or joy on this face. There were two long tear marks on his face, his eyes were empty and lifeless, his body was stiff, and it seemed that his soul had been sucked out, leaving only a shell.

Sima Feng slowly clenched his hands, looked around, and saw that the servants were arranging for the two to get married. Sima Feng could no longer bear it.

He quietly retreated, found an inconspicuous place, took out a bow and arrow, aimed at the position of the city lord's brother-in-law, pulled the bow hard, and with a chirp, the arrow flew out and hit the city lord's brother-in-law in the back, and a scream was heard.

Then, under the huge inertia of the arrow, he was carried forward and shot directly into the wall of the worship hall. The city lord's brother-in-law's limbs twitched constantly, but he soon stopped struggling.

The crowd immediately exploded and ran around in fear. Sima Feng also took the opportunity to put away his bow and arrow, pretending to be frightened and running around like everyone else. On the way, he quietly killed several dandies he had just met in the hall, all of whom were the ones who had been doing evil things with the city lord's brother-in-law.

At this moment, a firework suddenly exploded in the air above the mansion, emitting bright light and a loud noise, which was particularly harsh and glaring in the night.

Everyone was startled and looked up at the sky involuntarily. Zhang Chen, who was on the wall of the mansion, also saw the fireworks in the sky and his face changed.

"Oh no, something is wrong."

When Wang Cheng in the air heard the voice, his face froze and he immediately flew towards the mansion. He was not far away to begin with, and soon he was above the mansion. He looked inside the mansion, paying special attention to those who were about to leave.

Sima Feng also noticed the situation and was about to take advantage of the chaos to leave the house when he saw a figure riding a sword coming in front of everyone, and a cold and loud shout was also heard.

"Everyone, don't move. Stay where you are."

After Wang Cheng finished speaking, he looked at the crowd that was still running around, and immediately a pillar of fire shot out, directly setting the five people on fire. Immediately, shrill screams were heard.

Everyone stopped and dared not move. They looked at the figure flying in the air with expressions of fear and awe.

"If you dare to move again, this will be your fate."

Wang Cheng kept scanning the crowd below, and then waited quietly.
