It was night in Wu Du.

Outside the imperial city, Yuan Xi and Yuan Hao's bodies had already been put down, together with the corpse of the Great Immortal Haotian, under a straw mat.

Tonight, the full moon hung high in the sky.

Under the moonlight, the blood stains on the ground emitted a strange glow.

Not far away, there were many citizens of Wu City who had not dispersed, anxiously looking in the direction of the city gate.

At this time, a white hand reached out and lifted up the mat, revealing the figure of the Great Deity Haotian. His head had already been put back down, but it was already difficult to distinguish.

"Tsk tsk, this Wu Yu is truly resentful. She can't even be considered a human anymore."

Under the moonlight, one could see the speaker wearing a silver fox fur coat. His entire body emitted a fascinating and evil aura. Under the moonlight, his hard face and sparkling jade-like skin became even more outstanding, as if he was a celestial that descended from the heavens.

It was none other than Jiang Junlin.

Behind him followed the slightly emaciated Yuan Chen. His eyes were bloodshot and his fists were clenched tightly. His originally handsome face now appeared ferocious.

"Senior-apprentice Brother Jiang, you have to help me!"

Yuan Chen did not cry, but his voice was hoarse.

Jiang Junlin turned his head with a smile on his face. "That's no problem at all." "Don't worry. I've obtained Haotian's benefits. With this fruit, I'll definitely give him an explanation."

"Thank you, senior apprentice-brother."

Jiang Junlin took a few steps back and put his hand on Yuan Chen's shoulder, raising his eyebrows.

"Yuan Chen, speak honestly. This Haotian and this mortal have sent you to the Central Origin Sect since you were young. You have not met them many times, so you don't have much affection for them. Now that they are gone, it just so happens that you lack a burden and are determined to follow me in the future, do you understand?"

Yuan Chen said without much hesitation, "Thank you, Senior Brother. From now on, Yuan Chen belongs to Senior Brother only. However, no matter what, I still have a bloodline connection with them, so I must destroy Wu Yu.

"Don't worry."

Jiang Junlin didn't take Wu Yu very seriously, he smiled and said, "This Wu Yu is the best. I don't know what kind of good fortune she has, but she's actually improving so quickly." "I just got my list of supervisors and he has already taken his revenge in Wu City. This timing is pretty good."

The raw fruit had matured a day earlier. They had just received the raw fruit and coincidentally obtained the list of fruits. On the way back, they received the news that Haotian had already been killed.

"Yuan Chen, can you blame me for not coming back with you, your father, in order to bear fruit?" Jiang Junlin lowered his head to look at Yuan Chen, his eyes twinkling as he asked.

Yuan Chen trembled slightly and quickly replied, "Absolutely not. I know the importance of the Life and Death Fruit to you, and you don't know how powerful Wu Yu is." Furthermore, the Life Fruit's rhizome is an extremely poisonous object. You also wanted to receive it and have the sect master refine it into a Poison Pill. In order to help my father, you didn't even have the time to take away the rhizome.

"Heh heh. As long as you understand the kindness that your Senior Brother has shown you. " Even though the corpse was right beside him, Jiang Junlin was still smiling to himself.

Yuan Chen continued, "It was Senior Jiang who gave me everything. In my heart, Senior Jiang is much stronger than my parents."

"Very good." Jiang Junlin patted him on the shoulder in a good mood.

He laughed for a while and then said: "Wu Yu killed someone and ran far away, so it's not easy for me to catch him. How about I tie up hundreds of thousands of people and force Wu Yu to appear, and if he doesn't appear soon, I'll hang ten thousand people. What do you think?"

Yuan Chen trembled in fear and said, "Senior Brother, don't be like this. Killing mortals and damaging your merits will not benefit you in the future."

"These are all foolish rumors. Only a fool would believe them. To mortals, I am like an immortal. As an immortal, how can I be worthy of my own abilities if I don't kill billions of people? " Jiang Junlin smiled.

"Senior!" Please do not joke around with this matter. If the Sect Master finds out, he will not forgive you! " Yuan Chen panicked.

"I'm serious, I'm just joking with you." Jiang Junlin was just toying with him. Seeing how nervous he was, he felt even more amused.

Right at this moment, a team approached them. Just now, Jiang Junlin had come back on a crane horse. Many people knew that Yuan Chen was likely to be a Supreme Immortal since he was very respectful to him.

Jiang Junlin and Yuan Chen looked over with unfriendly gazes.

"Who?"

A tall high-ranking officer knelt forward and said anxiously, "Prince Yuan Chen and this Supreme Celestial, I am the Martial Marshal of Dong Wu, the commander of the army. We found Princess Wu You and guessed that she would be of use to you, so we brought her here."

Marshal Wu had always been Yuan Xi's confidant. Recently, he had heard faintly from Yuan Xi's words that Prince Yuan Chen seemed to have brought back an even more terrifying Supreme Celestial.

Therefore, he made this gamble.

"Princess Wuyou!"

Jiang Junlin and Yuan Chen exchanged glances as their eyes lit up. Jiang Junlin extended his hand, and with a single swipe, one of the carriages in the group shattered into pieces, revealing a devastatingly beautiful woman. It was none other than Princess Wuyou.

"Whiz!"

An overwhelming force pulled at Princess Wuyou's body, pulling her towards Jiang Junlin. For a moment, her long hair fluttered in the wind.

"It really is her. Wu Yu's sister is on good terms with Wu Yu." Yuan Chen smiled sinisterly. He was just worrying about how to get Wu Yu to deliver the wine to his doorstep when Princess Wuyou appeared.

"I sent someone to look for her just now. She isn't in the Worryfree Palace, where did you find her?" Yuan Chen asked.

"Prince Yuan Chen is at an inn in Mountain Spring Town. It was brought by a person from your clan called Yuan Feng. " The marshal said while kneeling.

"Alright, get lost."

With a flip of Yuan Chen's hand, Marshal Wu and the others rolled a few rounds and left their sight. At this moment, Yuan Chen glared coldly at Wu You and was about to step forward.

"Why?" Jiang Junlin placed Wu You on the ground and then held down the impulsive Yuan Chen.

"Let's torture her to death first to vent our hatred." Yuan Chen gritted his teeth and said.

"Yes, senior brother."

Yuan Chen took a deep breath.

He knew clearly in his heart that Jiang Junlin did not actually think much of Supreme Celestial Haotian. Not only did he not think much of it, he also wanted Yuan Chen to not think much of it.

However, there was nothing he could do. He was an existence that covered the entire sky with one hand in the Central Yuan Dao Sect. If it wasn't for him, how could he be counted as a bird?

Jiang Junlin looked at Wu You with interest, "How can a mere mortal not be scared to the point of peeing his pants when he sees me?"

Wu You glanced at the three corpses on the ground. They were Wu Yu's arch-enemy. She already knew that Wu Yu had fulfilled his wish for the past two years, so she was happy for Wu Yu.

She cast a glance at Jiang Junlin and said, "You're just a mere mortal, but you're a little strong. What's there to be afraid of?" "It would just be killing me, but I am not afraid of death, so why should I be afraid of you?"

Actually, she knew that these two would use her as bait and force Wu Yu to come.

Wu Yu had already taken his revenge. In the future, he would have a prosperous future. As his elder sister, if he allowed Wu Yu to return here and lose his life because of her, she wouldn't be able to accept it.

Now she hoped that Jiang Junlin and Yuan Chen would quickly eliminate her, so that Wu Yu wouldn't have to court his own death.

At the very least, Wu You felt that even if they were to die, there were still three people on the ground who would accompany them in death. That would be worth it.

If it wasn't for Wu Yu's return, she would have been tortured in the Eastern Divine Kingdom.

Hearing Wu You's words, Jiang Junlin smiled and said, "Seems like you're quite a magnanimous man. You wanted to provoke me into killing you so that Wu Yu wouldn't come here to die?" However, I just can't let you do as you wish. "

He easily dragged Wu You and jumped onto the city gate. At this time, the rope tied around the crossbeam was still in place. Jiang Junlin casually wrapped the rope around Yuan Xi's neck and placed her on a protrusion on the city wall.

He was imitating Wu Yu. As long as Wu You wasn't careful, he would fall down from the sky and hang himself.

"Princess Wuyou..."

Seeing that the third person had been hung on the wall, the citizens of Wu Du started to panic. In Wu City, there were at least 90% of people who cared about Princess Wuyou and they did not wish for her to lose her life like that.

Who would have thought that after Supreme Immortal Haotian died, another Supreme Immortal would appear? The commotion today was not over yet.

"Although a mortal's life is fragile, everyone cherishes it. I do not believe that you would dare to commit suicide. "Do you have the guts to jump?" Jiang Junlin leaned against the wall to stabilize himself, looking at Wu You with a smile that was not a smile.

Wu You glanced at the horizon, and she knew that Wu Yu must be madly rushing over at this time.

"Sorry, it was my carelessness that exposed my whereabouts."

She smiled wryly.

Therefore, she jumped down from the protrusion without any hesitation!

As long as she died, Wu Yu would be furious. He would definitely get his revenge, but at least he didn't have to rush in. He could bear with it, and Wu You believed that he wouldn't be so impulsive as to lose his mind.

The hemp rope slowly straightened.

"What a wonderful girl."

Jiang Junyin was dumbstruck. All the mortals he saw were cowards and cowards, and this was the first time he saw someone like Wu You, who would jump down so quickly without saying a word.

However, he would not let Wu You die. He extended his hand and grabbed, and Wu You was sucked up to him.

He returned to the protrusion and chanted a few chants. There were actually quite a few vines growing out of the dry wall, completely locking Wu You in place. In order to prevent her from biting her tongue to commit suicide, he even sealed her mouth.

"You just need to watch. I'll just kill your little brother."

"To be honest, I'm too lazy to do anything, but after owing me such a small favor, I can't do anything about it, haha …"

Jiang Junyin landed on the ground, smiling as he whispered into Wu You's ear.

"Send word to Wu Yu that I'll give him five days. If he doesn't show up within those five days, I'll hang his sister here."

The voice of Jiang Junlin echoed throughout the city.

In fact, when Wu Yu found out that Wu You had been hung on the city gate, not to mention five days, even one day, he couldn't hold himself back.

Jiang Junlin was quite courteous. Regardless of how far Wu Yu had fled at this time, five days was enough time for him to make it back in time.
