In the room, no one spoke.

The three of them had their own thoughts and concerns.

After a long while, Hu Tiankun sighed: "If Fifth Young Master gives up this opportunity, I can send Fifth Young Master away safely."

Li Yi shook his head. "The reason I'm here, is to retrieve the deity statue."

Hu Tiankun's body trembled, he was secretly excited: "Fifth Young Master has agreed?"

Li Yi nodded, "Yes!" He subconsciously tightened his fists, as he also remembered the situation in the capital. The Principal and Qin Meng were both waiting for him, so he had to return.

Hu Tiankun laughed. In the next moment, he stopped smiling and spoke with a solemn expression: "It just so happens that Sky Region City Lord is out, Second Young Master and Third Young Master are no longer here, Mount Yuheng's two disciples have not arrived yet. Fifth Young Master, you only have three days."

In these three short days, time was of the essence, but it was also the only opportunity.

Following this, Hu Tiankun began to explain the situation of Sky Region City to the two of them, and the distribution of power.

After a few hours, Hu Tiankun left the room.

The two of them sleepless, they had been digesting the information Hu Tiankun had brought them.

After a long while, Li Yi stood up, looked at the moonlight outside the window, and subconsciously held onto the huge black sword on his back, whispering: "I'll go tomorrow by myself."

She shook her head. "Your family member said that there were two disciples from Mount Yuheng."

He was silent.

The most touching words in the world are "I'll go with you".

But he was only friends with Chen Meng, he did not want to involve Chen Meng in this.

But he didn't refuse.

The morning sun rose and the mist dispersed.

Eldest Young Master Duan Wuhen had long since arrived at the inn. After a night of struggling, he decided to first stabilize the two of them and probe them out before bringing them to that place.

If the two of them were fake, he would behead them. If it was true, he would not hesitate to befriend them.

Li Yi and Chen Meng pushed the door open and came out. A group of soldiers made way and the two of them went down the stairs with calm and lazy expressions, looking like they were high up in the sky.

Duan Wuhen walked over with a smile, "Seniors, this way please."

The owner of the inn at the side also revealed a smile. However, he was cursing in his heart. He had already cursed Duan Wuhen's ancestors ten or eight times.

Li Yi and Chen Meng looked at each other, did not say a word, and silently nodded. Under everyone's gaze, the two of them stepped onto the palanquin that Duan Wuhen had prepared.

After about forty to fifty minutes, the sedan stopped.

Lifting their heads, the two of them saw the majestic City Lord's Mansion. Two rows of soldiers lined up in a neat and orderly manner.

On the vermillion door, there were three big words: City Lord's Mansion.

On both sides of the door stood two sinister looking Vicious Beast statues, they were carved so lifelike that it was as if they would come back to life in the next moment.

Arriving at the door, the two of them stopped in their tracks. They seemed to be waiting for something in the dark, but also seemed to be preparing.

Hu Tiankun had said before that Duan Wuhen's schemes were the most scheming. In order to smoothly obtain his approval, and to enter the City Lord's Mansion and that place, he would definitely probe him several times.

The first test will be conducted in front of the City Lord's Mansion.

Li Yi and remembered what Hu Tiankun said, he raised his head and looked around, seeing the few words above the red door, and then his gaze landed on the statue.

In the next moment, he seemed to have sensed something, his mouth slightly raised as he gave Chen Meng a signal with his eyes.

Aooo!

Just then, the two statues resurrected and transformed into two sinister Vicious Beast s. They opened their sharp fangs and pounced towards the two of them.

"Protect the lord!"

Behind him, a group of soldiers were shouting loudly.

Chen Meng took out a Glyph, and a Rank 3 Glyph exploded, suppressing the two Vicious Beast s.

Li Yi immediately pulled out his sword, and a few rays of sword beams fell down, the Sword Intent burst out, chopping down the two Vicious Beast s who had just revived like rotten weeds.

The group of soldiers behind him stopped in surprise, their bodies stiff.

Duan Wuhen's smile froze.

From the time the statue was revived to when it was cut, it had only been a few breaths of time. Li Yi and Yue Shan seemed to have already known about it, taking out their runes first to suppress it, then to kill.

It was too fast, so fast that no one could react. The battle had already ended.

Weng! *

Under everyone's watch, Li Yi took a step forward, and the Sword Intent burst forth, directly chopping down the signboard on top of the vermillion door.

After finishing all of this, Li Yi returned here silently with a calm expression on his face, as if the scene that he had discovered earlier had nothing to do with him.

The scene became quiet in an instant.

The people in the distance did not know that this was Duan Wuhen's test.

However, the strategists in the City Lord's Mansion were clear, including some soldiers.

But what no one expected was that not only did Li Yi destroy the massacre of the two statues, he even solved a problem on the signboard. It seemed that this kind of probing, in the eyes of the two, was just playing house.

Chen Meng slowly opened his eyes and looked at Duan Wuhen with a spurious smile. "Young Master Duan doesn't seem to welcome us very much huh?"

With a single sentence, before Duan Wuhen could even react, Li Yi stepped forward again, and slashed his greatsword downwards. His boundless strength exploded within the scarlet colored door.

Peng! Crack!

The sound of a sword slashing rang out, and soon after, the scarlet door cracked open. Within a few breaths, the door was turned to ash with a bang.

That was Duan Wuhen's probing from before, but now, it was Li Yi and Huo Rulie who were dissatisfied with Duan Wuhen, and were even angry.

Everyone was silent.

The people from the City Lord's Mansion all became stiff and their expressions became unsightly.

Duan Wuhen was even more so, and his face was pale. He didn't expect that his probing had been seen through, and not only that, it had even angered him.

Powerful.

At this moment, everyone was making their judgment of Li Yi and Yue Yang.

At this moment, many people began to believe it as well. If not for disciples of Mount Yuheng, would they dare to be so presumptuous in front of the City Lord's mansion?

Secretly, Hu Tiankun secretly praised them. Since the other party was going to probe them out, then he might as well directly reveal their identity and origins, and catch him off guard, before using a domineering tone to announce their identities and origins.

Chen Meng laughed again: "Young Master Duan, we are very busy, please bring us directly!"

With these words, the City Lord's Mansion became even more silent.

Even Duan Wuhen felt his chest heaving, suffocating, and stifling … His probing had been seen through, and the other party had even forcefully revealed their anger. This was to express their dissatisfaction and anger towards Duan Wuhen.

Now, Chen Meng had directly mentioned that he wanted to enter that place. Or not to agree? Delaying for time? Or should he continue probing?

Duan Wuhen was clear that if he continued to test the waters, only death awaited him. If he delayed or refused, the other party might just turn around and leave.

This was a consequence he could not bear.

But right now, the biggest problem was that he was still unable to confirm whether the two of them were real or fake.

Seeing that he did not say anything, Chen Meng naturally knew that the other party was hesitating. With a cold smile in his heart, he indifferently spoke, "Looks like Young Master Duan is very busy, since you don't have the time, then forget it, let's go!"

With that, Chen Meng turned around and withdrew his huge sword.

Really leave?

The expression of those from the City Governor's Estate slightly changed, and they looked extremely unsightly.

Duan Wuhen took a deep breath, his hesitant gaze becoming resolute. He took a big step forward and said, "My apologies, Wu Hen was rude just now. I will bring the two of you along now."

Done.

The two of them were overjoyed.

Secretly, Hu Tiankun also laughed.
