Chapter 169 Success, Defeat Liu Lei

In the eerie depths of the Demon Blood Cult, Hong Huang and Ling Qingyue are carrying out their undercover mission on thin ice. Every step they take is like walking on a tightrope above an abyss, extremely thrilling.

At the same time, Lin Fan, who was far away in the Cultivation Alliance, was immersed in the pursuit of the Great Dao in that holy place of cultivation, which was filled with spiritual energy, quiet and peaceful. Time was like a gurgling stream, quietly flowing through the six months of hard training.

The place where Lin Fan was located was filled with spiritual charm, as if a fairyland had fallen into the human world. Every inch of the air seemed to be filled with mist transformed from spiritual liquid, hazy and mysterious.

He was like a tireless traveler, immersed in the exquisite world of martial arts day and night. At dawn, he was already on the top of the mountain facing the rising sun, breathing in spiritual power and absorbing the first ray of purple air from the east; when the sun set in the west, he was still meditating in the woods, comprehending the mysteries of martial arts in the afterglow of the sunset.

All the fellows in the Cultivation Alliance were moved by Lin Fan's rock-hard determination and bottomless potential, and extended a helping hand.

Whenever Lin Fan was in seclusion to break through his realm, there were always several companions who volunteered to protect him. They were as motionless as sculptures, but as sensitive as spirit birds, and any disturbance from the outside world could not escape their perception.

What's more, some seniors who have rich experience in cultivation would share with Lin Fan their own insights on the circulation of spiritual power and the tempering of the mind over the years during his practice, helping him to overcome the difficulties on the rugged road to breaking through the bottleneck.

During this long six months, Lin Fan and his companions were like fearless adventurers, traveling through the deep mountains and old forests in search of rare spiritual herbs.

The ancient and mysterious forest is like a huge maze, where every step may hide unknown dangers.

They once encountered a ferocious monster, the evil aura emanating from its body was like a tangible dark cloud, covering the sky and the sun.

Lin Fan fought side by side with his companions. The spiritual power in their hands turned into brilliant arcs of light, and they fought a desperate battle with the monsters.

He also explored the secrets of spiritual power in the ancient ruins forgotten by time. The ruins were full of mechanisms, and behind every stone door could be a deadly trap.

They carefully cracked the rune code. Any mistake would trigger a violent backlash of spiritual power.

However, for Lin Fan, every challenge and hardship is a solid step on the road to becoming a strong man.

From the initial stage of Golden Elixir, he gradually broke through layers of obstacles like bamboo shoots breaking through the ground.

Every time the spiritual power impacted and expanded in the meridians, it was accompanied by unspeakable pain, but Lin Fan gritted his teeth and persisted. With his tenacious will and persistent pursuit of the great Dao, he successfully entered the middle stage of the Golden Core. At this time, he even had a faint aura of the late Golden Core.

At that moment, his body was surrounded by brilliant golden light, as if a god had descended to earth. Spiritual energy flowed through his meridians like a surging tide, roaring and surging. His powerful aura spread out in all directions like ripples, amazed and impressed his companions around him.

In Jigui City, Zhang Wenyu and the mysterious man Hong Huang's carefully planned plan to overthrow Liu Lei is about to usher in the critical moment that will determine the outcome.

Half a year ago, Hong Huang sneaked into the residence of Liu Lei, the lord of Jigui City, like a ghost in the dark night. Relying on his familiarity with the secretive style of the Demon Blood Cult, he skillfully shuttled through the heavy guards and traps, and finally successfully planted solid evidence of Liu Lei's secret collusion with the Demon Blood Cult.

The irrefutable evidence was like a bomb hidden in the dark, waiting for the right moment to completely destroy Liu Lei's evil empire.

Time passed, and half a year later, Ling Qingyue successfully got in touch with the Anti-Demon Alliance with her mysterious and special life experience.

With firm belief and sincere words, she told everyone in the alliance about the crisis in Jigui City and Liu Lei's heinous crimes, and finally won the trust and support of the alliance.

At this point, all preparations have been completed, waiting for the time to close the net, just like a hunter waiting in the dark for prey to fall into a trap.

Jigui City, a city that usually seems like a calm lake, is now full of crises due to undercurrents. Zhang Wenyu, like a cautious chess player, secretly summons righteous people from all sides in the city.

They were like shadows hidden in the streets, silent and yet closely watching every move of the City Lord's Mansion.

They passed messages secretly, exchanged information with eye contact and secret codes, and wove a tight intelligence network that tightly enveloped the City Lord's Mansion.

Finally, the long-awaited day began to ring slowly and unstoppably like the heavy bell of fate, approaching people step by step.

The arrival of this day seems to herald the advent of a huge storm that will drag all those involved into an unknown vortex.

Hong Huang and Ling Qingyue are like two resourceful dancers inside the Demon Blood Cult, moving and spinning lightly among the numerous cult members, skillfully dealing with the pressure and challenges from all sides.

When Hong Huang faced the senior figures in the sect, he pretended to be loyal on the surface and actively participated in various affairs within the sect.

However, behind this seemingly ordinary performance, he always manages to accidentally or intentionally reveal some ambiguous and specious information at unintentional moments.

These subtle details were like pebbles thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples and making the leaders of the Demon Blood Cult begin to feel suspicious and dissatisfied with Liu Lei.

Gradually, the forces that could have been concentrated to support Liu Lei were successfully dispersed, greatly weakening the support that Liu Lei's side could get.

At the same time, Ling Qingyue was not idle either. She seized the opportunity and made up excuses to leave the Demon Blood Cult headquarters. Like an extremely agile and cunning rabbit, she cleverly avoided the close surveillance of the Demon Blood Cult members with her wit and agility.

Finally, she successfully arrived outside the city and met up with the elites of the Anti-Demon Alliance who had been waiting there.

The cold moonlight was like a waterfall of mercury, pouring down unreservedly from the high night sky, and the silver light gently fell on the cold, resolute, sculpture-like faces of each of them.

Under the reflection of this light, there was a chilling and murderous aura, as if countless cold and sharp frost blades, flashing with cold light, piercing deep into people's souls.

Ling Qingyue opened her red lips slightly, deliberately lowered her voice, and softly explained to everyone the details of the next crucial battle plan.

However, although her voice was as gentle as the spring breeze, every word she spoke was like a huge bell, exploding in everyone's ears with a tremendous force.

Each syllable is so clear and firm that it does not allow for even the slightest doubt or wavering.

Everyone nodded slightly, expressing their agreement and understanding of the instructions given by Ling Qingyue.

Then, like ghosts in the dark night, their figures vanished in a flash. As light as a swallow and swift as the wind, they silently and rapidly approached Jigui City.

Their actions were as fast as lightning, swift and stealthy, just like a silent gust of wind, lightly sweeping across the vast wilderness, over mountains and across rivers, and in the blink of an eye they were approaching the target.

The night at this time was as deep as thick ink, heavily smeared over the sky above Jigui City, shrouding the city in darkness.

The thick night was like a huge natural curtain, providing an excellent cover for the thrilling action that was about to unfold.

Zhang Wenyu led a group of elite soldiers from the Cultivation Alliance, like a ferocious cheetah lurking in the dark abyss, quietly lurking in the gloomy shadows around the City Lord's Mansion.

They held their breath, their eyes sharp as hawks, closely watching every move in the City Lord's Mansion. When the time was right, they would suddenly launch a thunderous attack like a tiger descending from the mountain.

They restrained their own aura, as if blending into the darkness, only their hawk-like sharp eyes were fixed on the movements in the City Lord's Mansion, not missing any trace of movement.

The remaining four major forces in Jigui City were also well aware of the importance and danger of this operation. They dispatched their most elite men to guard the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, like a solid barrier, to prevent the Liu family from escaping in the chaos.

These young men all had solemn expressions, holding sharp blades, ready for battle, their eyes revealing their dedication to justice and their determination to fight evil.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Liu Lei, who had recovered from his injuries, was sitting in the luxurious study. The flickering candlelight around him illuminated his slightly tired but still ambitious face.

He was completely unaware of the approaching danger, like an ant immersed in a beautiful dream. He was still pondering how to escape the control of the Demon Blood Cult. The Demon Blood Cult's restraints were like an invisible iron chain, making him feel suffocated and uneasy.

At the same time, he was also thinking about how to further expand his power. The greedy desire flickered in his eyes like a burning flame.

Suddenly, a series of extremely subtle footsteps were heard, as if they were stepping out from the netherworld, gently breaking the deathly silence. Although the footsteps were faint, they were like the tolling of a death knell, striking the hearts of the people again and again, making people shudder.

Liu Lei was originally immersed in his own thoughts, but when he heard the unusual footsteps, he instantly became alert.

He raised his head suddenly like a frightened cheetah, his eyes scanning the surroundings sharply.

Before he could open his mouth to ask, he heard a loud "bang" and the door was suddenly pushed open.

Zhang Wenyu came to the world like a messenger of justice. He held his head high and stood at the door with a righteous look.

His eyes widened in anger as he shouted, "Liu Lei, all your crimes will be exposed to the world today!"

His voice was like thunder exploding from the sky, echoing continuously in this small study, shaking the dust that had accumulated on the beams for a long time and making it fall down like a gray snowstorm.

Liu Lei was so frightened by this sudden change that his face turned pale, and a strong sense of panic and anger suddenly surged in his heart.

His eyes widened, his face ferocious as he roared, "What on earth do you want to do? You daring fellows, how dare you rebel! I am the dignified Lord Mayor. Aren't you afraid of severe punishment for such a treasonous act?"

There was a hint of obvious fear in his voice, and he sounded like an enraged wolf, trying to scare away the enemies who dared to challenge his authority with a fierce roar.

However, at this moment, Ling Qingyue led the Anti-Demon Alliance and rushed into the City Lord's Mansion like a surging tide.

They are all agile and quick, cooperate with each other tacitly, move quickly and orderly, and look like an elite force that has been strictly trained and disciplined.

They formed a siege with Zhang Wenyu and others, trapping Liu Lei in the middle. Seeing that the situation was not good, Liu Lei tried to cast a spell to break out. He quickly formed seals with his hands and muttered something. In an instant, the spiritual power around him seemed to be stirred by a whirlpool, spinning wildly.

However, the masters of the Anti-Demon Alliance would never give him a chance. They also cast powerful spells, and brilliant rays of light collided and intertwined in the air, ruthlessly breaking Liu Lei's spells time and time again.

Immediately afterwards, the people from the Anti-Demon Alliance quickly stepped forward, and the ropes in their hands were like nimble snakes, instantly tying Liu Lei up.

Liu Lei's face was pale, his eyes full of fear and despair. He knew that everything was over for him.

The power, glory and wealth that once existed shattered and dissipated before my eyes like bubbles.

With Liu Lei being captured, the remnants of the Demon Blood Cult in the City Lord's Mansion were also eliminated one after another. The warriors of the Cultivation Alliance and the Anti-Demon Alliance launched a carpet-style search and eradication operation in the City Lord's Mansion.

They did not miss any corner and hunted out the members of the Demon Blood Cult hiding in the dark one by one, like hunters catching fleeing prey.

The crisis in Jigui City was finally resolved with the concerted efforts of everyone.

After the people in the city learned the truth about the collusion between the city lord and the Demon Blood Cult, they were all in disbelief at first. They could not imagine that the city lord who was so high and mighty in daily life could be such an evil person.

But as the truth was gradually revealed, the people's emotions changed from disbelief to enthusiasm, and they felt anger and disgust at Liu Lei's evil deeds.

Finally, when they learned that Liu Lei had been captured and the remnants of the Demon Blood Cult had been eliminated, the people applauded and rejoiced, as if they had welcomed the dawn of a new life.

After this turmoil, Jigui City ushered in a new turning point. The Cultivation Alliance and the other four major forces in Jigui City gathered together to discuss the future governance strategy of Jigui City.

After an intense but rational discussion, they finally decided that the five major forces would take turns to serve as the lord of Jigui City.

Zhang Wenyu made great contributions in the operation to encircle and suppress Liu Lei. He was like a beacon that lit the light of hope in the darkness, leading everyone to victory.

Moreover, a few days ago, his cultivation level even broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. His powerful strength and outstanding leadership skills made the remaining four major forces take notice of him.

Taking all factors into consideration, the four major forces finally agreed that letting Zhang Wenyu serve as the mayor of Jigui City was what everyone wanted.

Zhang Wenyu was fully aware of the weight of his responsibility as the city lord. Standing on the high platform of the city lord's mansion, he looked at the cheering people below and secretly vowed in his heart that he would govern Jigui City to prosperity and make it a solid fortress against evil forces such as the Demon Blood Cult.
