Mysterious mirror hanging high

Just talking about the dozen or so losers in front of him, even if the more than ten black-armored guards formed a formation and could barely serve as a combat force at the threshold of foundation building, and tied together with Commander Li, they would not be enough for Jing Yu to defeat with one hand.

He killed all these lackeys and fled far away with Zhao Yuanxi. As long as Xiaoyao Xiancheng did not activate the city defense formation, the probability of his escape was 100%.

As for Jindan Zhenren personally pursuing him?

There are only four or five real people in charge of the Immortal City now, and some of them are close to him like Hu Yueqiu. Even if that real person Chengming is really shameless and chases after him, at most he will not kill them for a while, but just suppress this team of [Tower Guards]. There will be room for maneuver at that time. Jing Yu can mobilize his connections and there is a lot of room for mediation.

However, if he followed her into the [Tower in the Clouds], if something went wrong and the formation inside was activated, Jing Yu would be facing a Jindan Zhenren, and it would be difficult for him to escape.

It has to be said that as Jing Yu's realm climbed and his strength grew, his means and powers gradually increased, and his mentality also changed a lot. His originally cautious character became more outspoken and lively, and he gradually stopped using the previous gentle means in many things and started to be straightforward.

"It's a good opportunity to try out some of the magical powers I've honed!" Jing Yu sneered in his heart.

"Wait!"

Just as the two sides were on the verge of a show of force, a young man in fine clothes, whose cultivation level was only at the Qi training stage, but who was accompanied by a Foundation Establishment guard, landed between Jing Yu and Commander Li on a flying light. He waved a folding fan in his hand and greeted Jing Yu and Zhao Yuanxi before them.

"Uncle Xuan Jing, Sister Yuan Xi!"

When Commander Li saw this person, his expression changed. A dignified Foundation Establishment cultivator actually bowed to this young man in the Qi Condensation Stage.

"It turns out that the young master of the Yuwen family has arrived."

This person is Yuwen Yundan, the son of Yuwen Xiaojin and Hu Yueqiu, who is now 21 years old!

"It turned out to be Yundan." Jing Yu's expression eased slightly and he nodded.

Although Yuwen Yundan was young, he was also new to the art of alchemy. Apart from long periods of uninterrupted seclusion, Jing Yu usually gave him a lot of guidance, and they were like a semi-teacher.

Yuwen Yundan smiled and said, "I was just finishing the homework my father left me today when I heard that Sister Yuanxi had established her immortal foundation. I hurried over to congratulate her, but unexpectedly ran into Commander Li. I wonder what misunderstanding led to this!"

The young man in fancy clothes before him was quite influential, and Commander Li had his own backers, so he wasn't intimidated. He simply said in a deep voice, "I've already told Taoist Xuanjing that I'm here to recruit independent cultivators to the battlefield. While this is unprecedented, it was a rule agreed upon by the Immortal Alliance's top leaders a few days ago. It's a final decision, but the written document hasn't been issued yet..."

"Who knows whether you, a lackey, are here to deceive me by falsely conveying the imperial edict..." Jing Yu was still unforgiving and sneered.

"you!"

Commander Li was furious, and he wished he could capture the old Taoist immediately. However, Yuwen Yundan snapped his fan shut, his expression calm, "Commander Li, please calm down. I want to talk to my elders."

Then he came closer to Jing Yu and said in a voice transmission, "Uncle Xuan Jing, what this person said is true. Father and Mother were discussing this matter today, and it has really been decided... If Sister Yuan Xi doesn't accept the transfer order, I'm afraid people will gossip about her."

Jing Yu narrowed his eyes. "Isn't the Xiaoyao Alliance afraid of causing panic among the cultivators? Once the door is opened to recruiting independent cultivators, I'm afraid that people will panic and all the independent cultivators in the city will scatter like birds and beasts!"

Yuwen Yundan smiled bitterly and said, "Now the Tang family and the Beast Taming Sect have blocked the west, the east is the Endless Sea with frequent spiritual storms, the south is the base camp of the demon cultivators, and the north is the Hundred Thousand Mountains and it's inaccessible... Where can a casual cultivator run to? It's better to try your luck on the battlefield. Maybe you can repel the demon cultivators and hold out until the war is over, and there's still a way out."

"That Chengming guy has been fighting with my father for a long time. He took advantage of the fact that no official document was issued and ordered Sister Yuanxi to do something about it. He wanted to force my uncle to have a tantrum so that he could use it as an excuse to vent his anger."

"So, I've been affected by this." Jing Yu thought deeply and asked again, "Where is your father?"

"I'm currently discussing matters with Chengming in the Cloud Tower with my mother."

Yuwen Yundan turned around and said calmly, "Commander Li, Immortal Chengming is currently discussing matters with Immortal Yueqiu and Patriarch Yuwen in the tower. It just so happens that I, a young master, would also like to enter the tower. Why not let me take fellow Daoists Xuanjing and Yuanxi to visit the Immortal?"

After saying that, without caring whether Commander Li agreed or not, he invited Jing Yu and Zhao Yuanxi to board the flying boat driven by the foundation-building guards and flew towards the Cloud Tower in the center of the fairy city.

"Uncle Xuan Jing, don't be impulsive later. Just watch how my father deals with Cheng Ming." Yuwen Yundan warned in a low voice.

Jing Yu nodded without comment, and followed Yuwen Yundan into the meeting room in the [Tower in the Clouds]. He saw Yuwen Xiaojin and Hu Yueqiu, who were still in the late stage of foundation building, sitting on one side, and a man with a hooked nose and a gloomy face on the other side.

When Jing Yu saw this person, he felt a little more contempt in his heart, thinking: "He looks like a born villain. It's really a waste of such a good Taoist name as [Chengming]."

He respectfully said to Hu Yueqiu, "Xuan Jing greets Master Yueqiu."

But he ignored Master Chengming who was standing beside him.

Cheng Ming Zhenren glanced at Jing Yu coldly, his heart already raging with anger. He thought to himself, "Well, you're just a good dog of Yu Wen Xiao Jin, and now you're taking advantage of your power! I'll punish you for disrespecting a Zhenren later..."

Before he could even begin to attack, Yuwen Xiaojin spoke first, "Master Chengming, although the two Great Masters have decided to recruit independent cultivators, the specific implementation still needs to be discussed. In my opinion, we should prioritize a gentle approach. If we use harsh measures, I'm afraid chaos will break out in the city. By then, the independent cultivators who have been drafted won't be able to contribute much on the battlefield, and they might not be able to make much of a difference."

Although Yuwen Xiaojin is still only in the late stage of foundation building, he is the head of the Yuwen family. Yuwen Baoding is missing, but there is no news of his death. That means the Yuwen family is still a Jindan family. Relying on this identity, Yuwen Xiaojin can be on par with Chengming Zhenren.

After finally forming a golden elixir, Cheng Ming Zhenren was now having an equal conversation with Yu Wen Xiao Jin, a Foundation Establishment cultivator. Cheng Ming Zhenren was very unhappy and said in a somewhat stiff tone: "Master Yu Wen, are you implying that I am being cruel?"

Yuwen Xiaojin didn't deny it, but simply stroked his short beard and said calmly, "The Immortal Alliance is already in the wrong in this matter. I hope you will be more careful with your words and actions."

Jing Yu watched the two of them interacting, and gradually things became clear in his mind:

"Alright, it looks like these two have fallen out. Although Yuwen Xiaojin is the head of the Yuwen family, he now relies on Hu Yueqiu, a non-Zhenren, to keep the situation under control. He is on the side of Zhenren Yuehua, while Zhenren Chengming is a disciple of Zhenren Tota."

"On the surface, it seems to be just a personal grudge between the two of them, but in reality, Yuwen Baoding has been missing for over twenty years, and the two remaining Great Immortals of the Xiaoyao Alliance are fighting for power or profit. I'm afraid a rift has already developed..."
