God Destroying Pearl

After hearing what Yang Yuxuan said, Song Yun was shocked beyond words. There was disbelief in his voice: "What? Why is the city closed suddenly?"

In his opinion, lockdown is an extremely serious measure that is usually only taken in the face of major threats or emergencies.

Yang Yuxuan's face was solemn. She explained, "This morning, the Wang family and the Liu family suddenly ordered a closure of the city under the pretext of martial law."

Song Yun frowned, looking puzzled: "The Wang family you are talking about, is it the family that Wang Delong belongs to? Are they from the City Lord's Mansion?"

Yang Yuxuan shook her head and replied, "It's Wang Delong's family. The Wang family is not from the City Lord's Mansion."

Song Yun was even more puzzled. He asked, "How can they have such great power? Isn't it the City Lord's Mansion that can issue the order to seal off the city?"

Yang Yuxuan sighed and said, "The problem lies in the City Lord's Mansion. According to the news from the Wang family and the Liu family, the City Lord of Yuxu City is missing, along with his subordinates and family members."

"According to the regulations of Yuxu City, if the city lord is absent, as long as two of the three major families in the city agree, they can exercise the city lord's rights on his behalf." Yang Yuxuan continued to explain.

After listening to Yang Yuxuan's narration, the word "conspiracy" immediately flashed through Song Yun's mind.

There was a hint of vigilance in his eyes, and he said, "Yuxu City is developing so well, it is impossible for the Yuxu City Lord to disappear for no reason, not to mention that he took his family and subordinates with him. So many people disappeared at the same time, there must be traces left. Has no one gone to the City Lord's Mansion to investigate?"

Yang Yuxuan's expression became more serious, and she replied: "Now the City Lord's Mansion has also been put under martial law by the Wang and Liu families. No one except the people from the Wang and Liu families can enter the City Lord's Mansion."

"Are the Wang family and the Liu family so powerful? They can actually stop so many people from Yuxu City. Also, what is the strength of the Lord of Yuxu City?" Song Yun continued to ask.

Yang Yuxuan explained: "The Lord of Yuxu City is at the initial stage of Jindan. The one with the highest cultivation in Yuxu City is the Lord of Yuxu City. There are three major families in Yuxu City, namely the Wang family, the Liu family and our Yang family. The highest-level person in each family is only at the great perfection of foundation building. Over the years, everyone has been equally strong. Although there are often frictions, they are never exposed. If the Jindan cultivators do not come out, the Wang family and the Liu family can join forces to completely control the situation."

After hearing this, Song Yun nodded. He already had some guesses in his mind.

He knew that in the world of immortal cultivation, strength determined everything, and the alliance between the Wang family and the Liu family had obviously broken the original balance of Yuxu City.

Song Yun frowned, he pondered for a moment, and then raised his question: "Could it be that everyone in the City Lord's Mansion was killed? What does your uncle Li say?"

"My uncle Li also suspected that everyone in the City Lord's Mansion had been killed. He wanted to go to the City Lord's Mansion to find out the news, but he has to protect my father in seclusion, so he can't leave. The City Lord's Mansion must be heavily guarded now. It would be dangerous for ordinary cultivators to go and investigate. We don't have a suitable candidate yet, so we can only wait and see."

After hearing this, Song Yun pondered in his heart. He had originally planned to rest in Yuxu City for a day before going to Void Valley to practice, but the current situation has obviously exceeded his expectations. Now it seems that he has to solve the problem of Yuxu City for the time being.

So Song Yun said decisively: "To avoid any more trouble, I'll go."

When Yang Yuxuan heard Song Yun's words, a look of gratitude appeared on her face: "Thank you, Brother Song."

Song Yun waved his hand, indicating that it was no need to be polite, and then continued: "Tonight, I will go to investigate the situation in the City Lord's Mansion. I hope the result is not what we think. Do you have a portrait of Yuxu City Lord?"

"Yes, Brother Song, I'll give it to you later. Let's go eat something first."

"it is good."

After breakfast, Yang Yuxuan handed Song Yun a portrait.

Song Yun took the portrait and saw an old man in white clothes with a majestic appearance.

He had a few grey hairs on his temples and a neat beard on his lips, and his eyes revealed a sophisticated wisdom and calmness.

Song Yun carefully observed the portrait and memorized the appearance of the Lord of Yuxu City deeply in his mind.

Then Song Yun returned to the room.

When night fell, the sky of Yuxu City was covered by a dark blue curtain, and twinkling stars appeared in the sky.

Song Yun deliberately changed into a black nightgown, which not only helped him hide in the night, but also reduced the possibility of being discovered in the subsequent exploration.

Afterwards, Song Yun used his ability of spatial teleportation to leave the Yang family quietly.

His figure appeared and disappeared in the night, as if blending into the surrounding space.

Not long after, he followed the route provided by Yang Yuxuan and arrived near the City Lord's Mansion without anyone noticing.

Song Yun hid in a secluded corner, carefully observing the guarding situation of the City Lord's Mansion.

He found that the security at the City Lord's Mansion was extremely strict. There were eight disciples standing on both sides of the door. The cultivation base of these disciples was about the twelfth level of Qi Refining. They looked alert and glanced around from time to time. They were obviously carefully selected guards.

In addition, there were three disciples in the early stage of foundation building patrolling at the door from time to time. Their steps were steady, and the spirit swords in their hands flashed coldly under the moonlight.

Although the cultivation of these patrolling disciples is not as good as Song Yun's, their presence undoubtedly increases the difficulty of Song Yun's investigation.

Song Yun pondered secretly, and said in his heart: "What a big battle."

Under the cover of night, Song Yun began to look for a way to enter the City Lord's Mansion.

His eyes scanned the area around the City Lord's Mansion, looking for a possible entrance or a blind spot of the guards.

He knew that if he was discovered, not only would his exploration mission fail, but he might also be in danger.

Under the cover of night, Song Yun quietly circled around the outskirts of the City Lord's Mansion.

He discovered that there were protective formations set up on the walls. These formations were flickering with light, forming a defensive barrier.

Song Yun did not rush into action, but patiently looked for possible weaknesses.

He knew that any formation had its weak point, and as long as he found this point, it would be possible to break through the defense.

After careful investigation with his spiritual sense, Song Yun finally discovered a weak link in the formation.

He used space distortion to destroy the formation and created a large hole that was only big enough for one person to pass through.

Then, Song Yun passed through the big hole and used space teleportation to successfully enter the City Lord's Mansion.
