Chapter 599: Chapter 220: Everything is under my control, fight with me!? You’ve fallen into my trap! (Seeking Monthly Tickets!!!)
Longevity Immortal City.
At this moment, the scene was somewhat bizarre, with dozens of Nascent Soul Powerhouses from the two major factions confronting each other, yet all wearing cautious expressions, not daring to act recklessly.
Among them, two beams of Spirit Light shot into the sky, which were Spirit Tools that had already recognized their masters, standing proudly next to Li Chang.
Li Chang couldn’t help but feel like crying, for at this point, how could he not know that he had been set up by others?
But even if he told the truth, no one would believe him, since he had used his essence blood to refine the Spirit Tools. Without his consent, how could anyone obtain his essence blood?
Thus, after the Spirit Tools automatically recognized their masters, even his companions at this moment were looking at him with suspicious eyes.
Fortunately, after City Lord Feng Yuan appeared, he didn’t seem to doubt Li Chang, but just quietly watched Liang Sheng with a chilling murderous intent in his eyes.
Without doubting his instincts, Li Chang believed that Senior Brother Feng Yuan definitely didn’t suspect him. Otherwise, the reaction would have been different. Indeed, he was an extraordinary man whose actions and thoughts were different from others.
Feeling slightly relieved, Li Chang turned around and reflected, straightened his body and wore an innocent expression on his face. After all, he had no reason to do such a thing.
Who would provoke a Soul Emergence Heaven’s Chosen who had crossed the Heavenly Tribulation just to get a Spirit Tool, wasn’t it courting death?
The reason why cultivators were fanatical about chasing after Spirit Tools was for their own safety and security. So, which fool would risk his life for a Spirit Tool?
Amidst the silence, others gradually withdrew their doubtful gazes and no longer looked at Li Chang.
At first, things happened suddenly, but after they calmed down, they realized that Li Chang under no circumstances would betray Feng Yuan.
After all, they were the reinforcements prepared by Ling Xiaozi and Chunyangzi and were even more aware of the consequences of betrayal. Only if they wanted to die could they possibly do so.
However, Li Chang’s essence blood was indeed exploited by the other party now, which was a clear indication that the other party’s methods were no ordinary matter and could not be underestimated.
Although they understood this principle, ordinary cultivators in the Immortal City did not know the key points. Especially, since it concerned their own interests—the opportunity to forge Spirit Tools for each person.
Under heaven, prosperity is due to benefit.
So, after Liang Sheng’s manipulation, they felt that the benefits they might have gained from the Spirit Tools were directly damaged, making the anger in their hearts capable of burning down the entire Immortal City in an instant.
Although most of them may not even be able to prepare the materials for a Spirit Tool, yet precisely because of this, they were more easily incited.
The psychology of the lower cultivators was well known to Feng Yuan and his group since they were Higher Beings who were best at manipulating people.
On the City Lord Mansion side, anxiety filled their hearts, while on Pei Linyu’s side, their faces showed surprise and joy. In their eyes, Liang Sheng’s actions at this moment were no different than what they felt about the Zhou Family in their hearts.
After all, Liang Sheng and the Zhou Family had once caused a huge commotion in front of the City Lord Mansion, and Pei Linyu even had an incredible thought.
Could it be that Junior Brother Chen Chen had already persuaded the Zhou Family tonight, or that the Zhou Family had suddenly realized their mistake at the last moment and finally acknowledged their alliance to Seeking the Truth Lineage, resulting in such a change?
However, no matter what the reason was, the current situation was favorable for Pei Linyu. Originally, they were the ones ambushed in the City Lord Mansion’s plan, but now, at the very least, the situation had become a clear stand-off.
Therefore, at this moment, Pei Linyu secretly conveyed that they must not act rashly, and if the situation turned sour, they must ensure Liang Sheng’s escape even at the cost of their lives today.
Even if Liang Sheng couldn’t get away, they would wait for everyone else to fall before him, and only then would he face death last.
In an instant, those who received Pei Linyu’s instructions from the Seeking the Truth Lineage had determined gazes. Seeing this, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but curse in his heart.
What the hell, are you all idiots? Why is everyone looking at me as if I’m dead?
If you want to die, just die and don’t drag me into it. I’ll live a long, prosperous life, dancing on your graves…
However, now was not the time to argue with these stubborn mules from the Seeking Truth Lineage. So Liang Sheng, who was unhappy in his heart, simply ignored them and looked at Feng Yuan, who was suspended in mid-air.
At this moment, Liang Sheng actually wanted to provoke him further. This situation had been rehearsed countless times by him, and after all, no one would die today!
He said it!
Even if there were unexpected accidents, he still had the next plan in place. By that time, it would be even more challenging for Feng Yuan to back down.
Of course, Liang Sheng was a kind-hearted person and couldn’t bear to see innocent cultivators getting killed. So today, he still wanted the Immortal City to shed less blood.
If Feng Yuan knew what Liang Sheng was thinking now, he would probably be furious. How could there be such a shameless person in this world, who, despite causing such a situation, is still not grateful for the mercy shown to him?
However, Feng Yuan didn’t know Liang Sheng’s thoughts at this moment, and he only felt a little tired in his heart. Considering his status as the Longevity Immortal City Lord and being a powerful Soul Emergence Heaven’s Chosen who had crossed the Heavenly Tribulation, he was now bound by the fortune contained within the ordinary cultivators of the Immortal City.
If it weren’t for this burden, he probably would have lost his patience and made a move already. After all, even if Liang Sheng had the backing of a Sacred Land Representative in this situation, he would have no choice but to accept it.
Such a despicable person, not only was he not grateful for the mercy shown to him, but he would also provoke time and time again. If he didn’t make a move, his Dao heart would remain unsettled.
In this case, if his Master knew about his predicament, he would probably come forward to support him as well.
