C148 Open Inner City(part I)

Zi Ling didn't look at Parade any longer. She covered the entire prison with her consciousness and began to search carefully.

Suddenly, she turned around and walked quickly to the right. Paradiel followed quickly.

The prison was originally divided into east and west, and there was an extremely spacious lawn between them. Zi Ling walked out from the somewhat solemn and dull looking square iron gate, passing through the lawn and approaching the prison on the other side.

Paradiel looked around. At this moment, many of the vengeful spirits were hiding in the shade of the trees to prevent the sunlight from shining on them.

"Bang …"

After a loud explosion, a large wave of vengeful spirits surged out from the iron gate and charged toward the purple silk.

Zi Ling was already prepared. As soon as the vengeful spirit rushed out, "Boom!" "Boom!" A series of explosions rang out, and a sea of fire gradually extended outwards.

Not long after, numerous glowing soul orbs appeared on the ground. Zi Ling leaped over the sea of fire and headed towards the prison. Parade wanted to follow as well, but there was still a sea of fire in front of them. It could only wait for the flames to extinguish while sucking in all the soul orbs nearby.

The purple silk rushed off in a certain direction, and by the time Paradiel caught up, the purple silk had already disappeared without a trace.

At this moment, Zi Ling had come to the prison. Other than the inside of the prison, there were almost no vengeful spirits floating outside.

The Undead in the prisons on both sides continuously released their resentment as they attempted to wrap themselves around the purple silk, letting out ear-piercing howls. Zi Ling, however, looked in front of her and did not stop.

Finally, she stopped outside a cell on the inside of the cell. The Undead within the iron railings were screaming at her, as waves of resentment surrounded Zi Ling's body. She smiled lightly, her gaze falling on the green pendant on its chest, then sweeping over the round ears on her side.

The purple silk immediately released a divine intent attack. The vengeful spirit, which was shrieking non-stop, suddenly calmed down and floated silently within the prison.

She raised a leg and kicked open the iron door. The vengeful spirit standing opposite her ordered, "Follow me."

With the guidance of his spiritual sense, the Undead's son obediently floated out of the cell and followed behind Zi Ling as he slowly left the prison.

Paradiel didn't dare to go too far. He was searching for the Purple Ribbon in the nearby prisons. Before he could find any results, he saw Purple Ribbon leading a vengeful spirit out from a nearby prison. He also saw the earpiece and pendant on the undead.

"Let's go …"

After expending so much effort, they finally managed to light up the third lighthouse. Seeing the appearance of the purple silk, Zhu'er and the others all let out sighs of relief.

When the undead guarding the pagoda saw the vengeful spirit behind Zi Ling, he immediately floated up. His lifeless eyes did not reveal any other emotion. "As expected, my son lost his memory."

At this moment, Zi Ling had already released her control over the undead son, so he really had no memory of it.

"Your son has already returned to your side. When will you do what you promised me?" The Purple Ribbon looked straight at the Tower Guardian Undead.

The tower guarding Undead's gaze swept past Zi Ling and her group, before looking at Parade, "Human, do you really want to open up the inner city?"

"Yes, please honor your promise."

"Alright, since I've agreed, I'll let you light up the lighthouse." With that, the Undead floated toward the lighthouse.

Not long after, without knowing what he had done, he floated out, "Human, go and light up the lighthouse."

Zilch did not reply. When the tower guard undead floated out, she too climbed the stairs to the lighthouse.

The Purple Ribbon released her divine intent to carefully check once. The exploding array formation had indeed disappeared without a trace. Her eyes flashed and she extended her hand to start rotating the bead. Not long after, the lighthouse emitted a faint light, which then became brighter and brighter.

As Zi Ling descended from the lighthouse, Paradiel urged, "Humans, there is still one last lighthouse that has yet to be lit. Let's quickly go to the lighthouse in the south."

Zi Ling lightly nodded and was about to leave when the Tower Guardian Undead floated over, "Human, remember what I said before."

Before she could reply, the guardian of the tower, the Undead, had already led her son into the lighthouse.

"What a strange undead." Pearl tugged at her hair and laughed.

"What did it say before?" The Shadow Demon came over and asked Pearl if she still remembered.

"He said so much, how am I supposed to know what he means?"

As they spoke, they left the lighthouse and approached the southern lighthouse.

Very quickly, the group arrived at the southern lighthouse. The reason for their happiness was that this lighthouse was devoid of any undead guards, and there were no other formations around, so it was easily lit up.

At this moment, the happiest aside from Paradiel was Ace. Seeing this, Pearl frowned, "Are you so happy to light the lighthouse?"

The Shadow Devil also came over and stared at Ace for a while. Ace was slightly restrained after they stared at him for a while, but it was obvious that he was in an extremely good mood.

"Could it be that you came here to enter the inner city?" The Shadow Devil laughed.

Ace did not deny it, "We have spent so much effort lighting up the lighthouse, don't we want to enter the inner city?"

"That's true, but you must have some ulterior motive." After saying that, he tossed it to the side, completely oblivious to what was happening.

Ace's eyes flashed, and he unconsciously looked in the direction of the Purple Ribbon. The Purple Ribbon was currently staring forward, as if she hadn't heard their conversation.

"Paradiel, lead the way." Zi Ling made a sound. It was time to open the inner city's gate.

Palladel immediately flew to the front of the purple silk, very quickly floating in one direction.

Zi Ling strode forward and followed. Seeing this, Zhu'er and the others also hurriedly stopped and followed closely behind.

Very soon, Parade led the group to the center of Eternal Night City. Originally, it was a fountain, but now the fountain was no longer there. It was a tall city wall with the city gates shut tightly.

"Didn't you already light up the lighthouse? "Why aren't the city gates open? Parade, go and see if you can open them." Zi Ling stood outside the inner city gate and said to Parade.

"Human, I can't open it. Only you can."

Zi Ling smiled slightly, "Is that so? "Then I'll try." With that, he walked forward.

Creak …

A heavy voice rang out, and the inner city's gate was easily opened by Zi Ling.

A trace of human emotions flashed through his lifeless eyes, seemingly surprised.

A moment later, Zi Ling waved at Zhu'er and the others, "Come here."

Naturally, Zhu Er and the rest didn't hesitate. Under Zi Ling's orders, they immediately followed.

Even after Zi Ling and the rest entered the inner city, Parade was still floating motionlessly in the air.

Noticing that Paradiel was not following her, she looked back at him. "Aren't you coming after your daughter?"

Paradiel hurriedly said, "Right, I want to find my daughter. Wait for me."

With that, Parade flew towards the inner city.

Its silhouette was getting closer and closer to the inner city's gate, and just as it was about to pass through it, a shrill scream came out of Parade's mouth.

His grey figure suddenly turned dark red, and his lifeless eyes became extremely sharp. "Human, you lied to me!" As he spoke, he let out a shrill scream.

Zi Ling faintly smiled and took a few steps forward, "If you didn't lie to me, why would I lie to you?"

The destructive spell formation was extremely powerful, and in the blink of an eye, the dark red light surrounding Parade's body had turned into a light red.

"No, no, I don't want to die!" "Humans, I was wrong, I just don't believe you, but I helped you open up the inner city, so you should let me go, right?" However, he was puzzled as to why these people were able to pass through this place safely.

After being repeatedly strangled by the killing array, the grievance on its body became weaker and its consciousness disappeared. Just when it thought that it was about to die, a transparent barrier suddenly appeared around it.

"Human, thank you." Paradiel, badly wounded, tried to float, but found he could have died.

"Thank me? Thank you for... "Thank me for wanting to kill you?" Zi Ling raised her brows and smiled as she softly said.

Panadel's lifeless eyes widened as he stared at Zi Ling. "What did you say …"

"At this time, are we still going to continue pretending?" Zi Ling snorted, "I didn't leave you alive to save you, but to let you know the consequences of tricking me!"

Panadel's eyes revealed a different expression of fear compared to the eyes of an ordinary Undead.

While Zhu Er and the rest were still confused about the situation, Zi Ling slowly squatted down and looked at the motionless Parade, "You aren't here to find your daughter, nor are you here to lead us into the inner city. From the beginning, you wanted to attract our attention, and under your guidance, have us activate the killing formation, and then die here, am I right? "

It wanted to deny it, but the other party obviously wouldn't believe it. It immediately cried out, "Human, I'm just following orders. Don't kill me, don't kill me."

"Tell your men to go to the inner city?"

"Yes, yes!" Paradiel nodded quickly.

"If that's the case, then there's no use in keeping you. I will naturally find that person." From Zi Ling's point of view, that person was most likely a cultivator.

"Don't! It wasn't easy for me to become a general level Undead. Don't kill me, I'll do whatever you want me to do."

The gray body only looked like it had the strength of a middle rank general. However, after being attacked by the killing array, it could only stay for a little longer. It would not be able to recover at all.

Zi Ling gently smiled, but her eyes slowly turned ice-cold. "I don't want anything from you. I just want you dead." After he finished speaking, the spirit energy shield was removed. Parade, who hadn't completely passed through the killing array, instantly turned into ashes. Not even a soul bead remained.

The Shadow Devil and the others were speechless, "This …" What formation is there? " Shadowfiend was so frightened that he pointed at the door.

Zi Ling turned around, her gaze falling on him, "So don't you run around recklessly, or else what happens to you will be your fate."

The shadow demon was scared cold, immediately moving closer to its master. He understood the situation from before. If it wasn't for his master, he and that undead might have ended up in the same place.

The Purple Ribbon didn't pay any more attention to the Shadow Devil and quickly released its divine intent.
