The Poison Sect was located in the center of the Four Great Empires, but it did not belong to any of the Empires.

Other than Poison Sect, there was also Mercenary Guild headquarters, Spirit Domain, and the three main forces of the Equipment Department. These three powers did not dare to offend the Midland easily, so he could only send people to secretly do the sealing of the Midland, and did not dare to be too arrogant on the surface.

Jiang Lingye was sure, but he was sure, that Helian Yunqian was also severely injured, and would not be able to run away from the Midland in a short amount of time. As long as he sealed off all the Midland, the two of them would not be able to escape either!

"Lei Li, lead your men to track the eastern side of Midland, Han Ye, lead your men to track the western side. Also, ambush a large number of disciples at the four exit areas of Midland, once you find Helian Yunqian and Su Xiruo, kill them!" Jiang Lingye's tone carried deep hatred.

"Yes sir!" The two Protectors lowered their heads to accept the order, but in the cold night's eyes, there was an additional sense of compassion.

"Then High Lord, what will you do?" Lei Li asked.

"My Spiritual Strength has been greatly damaged, so I need to go into closed-door training for a period of time." Jiang Lingye curled his fingers tightly, he was extremely unwilling, "When this sovereign comes out, I hope to see you all personally gift the Beast Core to this sovereign!"

Lei Li immediately knelt down, "Don't worry High Lord. As long as this subordinate is here, the two of them should not even think about leaving the Midland half a step!"

Han Ye also knelt down, but asked tentatively, "Young Master …" You want me to kill you too? "

Jiang Lingye glared at him coldly, "She is already not the young master of this Poison Sect. Han Ye, are you going to disobey this sovereign's orders?"

"I don't dare!"

"Hmph, that would be for the best." Jiang Lingye scoffed, "If I were to find out that you have any ulterior motives, you will end up dead!"

Han Ye slightly nodded his head and did not say another word. His heart was always at a loss and he did not know what to do.

He didn't want to make a move against Xi Ruo, and he couldn't kill her either. Now, he could only take a step forward.

Midland, Mercenary Guild Headquarters.

Inside the main hall, a Men In Black was wearing a mask with his black eyebrows and starry eyes. However, he was still unable to hide his delicate and cold face.

"Did you find him?" The Men In Black asked coldly.

A mercenary dressed like a Dark Guard kneeled in front of His Highness and reported truthfully: "Reporting to the great protector, there hasn't been any yet. The people from the Poison Sect have already secretly sealed off the four great exits of the Midland, so we only need to search the Midland s for them and we will be able to find the whereabouts of the president."

Anger appeared on Men In Black's face: "Are Poison Sect people this arrogant?"

"They secretly sent people to ambush us." The mercenary answered truthfully, "Chief Protector, this is actually a good method to reduce the scope of our search."

Men In Black snorted: "Send another ten thousand mercenaries to search the entire city!"

Following that, the man added, "Also, pass down an order to the Mercenary Guild. From then on, kill every Poison Sect disciple you see!"

His tone was cold and harsh without a trace of emotion.

"Yes sir!"

After the mercenaries disappeared, the Men In Black stood up and looked out the window. The sky had already darkened and a look of worry appeared in his eyes.

The Midland was located in the middle of the Four Great Empires, and because it was not under the jurisdiction of any of the empires, relatively speaking, this place was quite chaotic and there were all kinds of people here.

On the streets, a group of purple-robed Dark Guard s travelled back and forth, searching door to door.

"Milords, show mercy!" The woman saw that the only furniture in her thatched cottage had been destroyed, so she hurriedly begged for mercy.

One of the Dark Guard turned around and kicked the woman away. "Scram, you don't have the right to speak here!"

The woman fell to the ground, unable to retaliate. She could only cry out, "What a sin!"

The Poison Sect disciples searched the city, and the ones who were affected were ordinary families like them. However, they did not dare to openly go against the Poison Sect.

Suddenly, the wooden door shook, and ten mercenaries appeared outside. The Dark Guard s had just reacted, they were all killed by the mercenaries, not a single one was left!

"This Poison Sect person is too despicable, he won't even let ordinary people off!" One of the mercenaries angrily said.

The leading mercenary helped the woman up. The lady thanked him profusely, "Thank you, my lords. Thank you for saving my life!"

"You're welcome." The leading mercenary's tone was extremely polite as he urged, "The Poison Sect has been quite rampant lately. If the sky gets too dark in the future, you guys shouldn't go out."

The woman let out a helpless sigh and said: "Sigh, you all don't know, even if you don't go out, their Poison Sect's disciples would still break in.

The mercenary curled up his fingers, hated the two words Poison Sect to the bone.

As long as their Mercenary Guild exists, anyone with Poison Sect can forget about continuing to act so arrogantly!

Outside a dilapidated temple on the street, Poison Sect disciples were patrolling the place, looking like they were afraid of anyone.

Su Xiruo hid within the temple, passing through the cracks in the door and checking the situation outside. He couldn't help but crease his eyebrows, feeling that the situation wasn't good.

"Xiruo …" Yun Qian's intermittent voice transmitted into his ears. At this moment, he was already in a semi-conscious state and had long since lost track of the situation in the outside world.

Su Xiruo turned around, holding onto his ice-cold fingerbone with a face full of worry, and seemingly muttering to himself: "I have to find a place right now to treat Yun Qian's injuries."

But in the situation outside, if he were to use the Spiritual Strength, it would probably be exposed immediately.

In just a few short hours, she had already dealt with the three attempts at killing using her Poison Sect. Furthermore, she discovered that all the exits from the Midland had been set up with Poison Sect 'spies, and it was difficult for even a fly to fly out.

Suddenly, she heard a movement approaching her, she immediately pulled out her Can Meng, and was ready.

"It's me." The next second, a familiar voice entered his ears.

Su Xiruo raised his head and saw that it was Han Ye. His vigilance did not decrease in the slightest, "Han Ye, are you following orders to capture me?"

Han Ye sighed helplessly. "If I really capture you and bring you back, then you will lose your life."

Su Xiruo raised her eyebrows, she could not quite understand what he meant, "What do you mean?"

"The High Lord has already ordered people to seal off all exits of the Midland, and to search for the two of you with all their might, they have used almost all of the power of the Poison Sect!" Han Ye told her about the current situation. "So right now, your situation is extremely dangerous!"

"Heh, you've told me so much …"

"Xiruo." At that time, in the Poison Sect, I was the only one who knew her, and the first time we met, you still didn't know my true identity, so the relationship between you and I can be considered to be so pure that there isn't any impurities in it. Right now, I really don't want anything to ruin the relationship between us.

Su Xiruo was startled, only to see Han Ye raising his hand and opening a Spiritual Strength, secretly opening a different exit of the temple, he said: "You guys hurry up and leave, this time, just pretend I didn't see you guys, next time we meet, I won't be merciful!"

"You …" Hearing up to this point, Su Xiruo was actually slightly moved.

"Hurry up!" Han Ye couldn't help but urge, "If you hesitate a little longer, they will come searching for us soon!"

Therefore, Su Xiruo didn't hesitate anymore and helped Yun Qian up, saying to Han Ye: "Han Ye, this favor today, in the future, I will definitely repay you!"

"There's no need to be so polite with me." Han Ye helplessly smiled, as if as long as she could be at ease, he would feel at ease.

Looking at Su Xiruo's hastily leaving figure, Han Ye was lost in thought for a while. After that, Poison Sect disciples were immediately searched in.

"Protector Ye, is there any movement here?"

"Search carefully!" Han Ye ordered coldly.
