Chapter 156 If nothing unexpected happens, something unexpected will happen.
Li Nian had been waiting for the demons to take action, but at night, when the evil energy of the blood moon was at its heaviest, the entire Wuyue City was as silent as death, without any movement.
Su Yu sat upright in the main seat, his beautiful eyes and eyebrows still calm, and it was obvious that he was out of place in the anxious atmosphere of the room.
As for Wangyou and Yizhe, their eyebrows were twisted into knots and they were filled with anxiety.
After all, this batch of direct disciples are only teenagers in their teens and twenties. They are not yet able to remain calm and composed, and are helplessly infected with anxiety.
Li Nian blinked and looked at Su Yu who was calm and composed. Perhaps influenced by him, she strangely found a balance point and became the second calm person here.
When Elder Yizhe set out from the sect, the sect leader told him in person that he must bring the key back intact.
In short, he can be missing limbs, but the key cannot be missing even a corner, otherwise he doesn't have to go back.
Under this half-true and half-false threat, coupled with his concern for the Heluo Realm, he was the first to lose patience and asked
"What on earth are these villains from the demon clan doing? Are they all asleep? Why aren't they taking any action?"
Xue Hu's mouth twitched when he heard that. He wanted to cover his uncle's mouth. He was so old, but he was still so impatient. He was really getting older.
The disciples below were a little impatient. These young men who had not been beaten by reality were very excited and had a hint of rebelliousness. They couldn't wait to rush to the front of the demons and decide who was stronger in one fell swoop.
Elder Wangyou pinched his brows and couldn't help thinking of the young man who seemed to have never grown up and was so frivolous all day long. He wondered if he was hurt.
When he thought of the demons, immense hatred flashed in his eyes. That was the child he had worked so hard to save and whom he cherished like a treasure. If he was hurt in the slightest, he would make Sikong Cangming pay the price.
"Elder Shuanghua, the demons haven't made any moves yet. Should we continue with our plan?" he asked.
Su Yu slowly looked at everyone and said, "No, we don't even know their main location. It's too risky for us to break in without permission."
Yue Jian frowned slightly, tightening her grip on the sword. "The longer we delay, the more dangerous it will be for Junior Brother and the people. Is there really no other way?"
Elder Yizhe touched his chin in confusion. "Logically, the Blood Moon is the best day to break through the Heluo Realm. Why did the demons change their plans at the last minute? Did they know about our plan?"
Haolian was shocked, blinking his peach blossom eyes. "We are the only ones who know about this plan. How could it be leaked?"
Haolian just said it casually, but Chu Xu behind him shuddered violently. She bit her lower lip and her face turned pale. Could it be... was it yesterday?
Su Yu did not say a word about such speculation. His indifferent expression showed no trace of his thoughts, and it was impossible for anyone to get a glimpse of his thoughts.
Su Yu's cold and indifferent eyes swept over everyone present, tapping the table with his fingertips and giving a faint order.
"All plans for tonight are cancelled. No one is allowed to act on their own."
Elder Wangyou was stunned, then asked, "What about Qi An and the others? The demons can wait, but we can't."
Su Yu glanced at him calmly and said, "Before the formation begins, they will all be safe."
Elder Wangyou sighed and had to sit back. What he said was true, but he was always afraid that something would go wrong and An'er's identity would be discovered.
Li Nian frowned, as if he understood Su Yudao's intention, "Master, do you want to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances?"
Su Yu paused, nodded slightly, and a hint of praise appeared in his eyes.
The demons simply knew something and temporarily changed their plans, but there will always be a moment to activate the formation, and as soon as this moment comes, they will move quickly.
The best way is to remain unchanged in the face of all changes and never lose your composure.
So, these days, the two sides seem to be at odds with each other, pulling each other, and it depends on who loses patience first.
After a few days of peace and tranquility, the people in the city were ordered not to go out and were trapped at home for more than ten days. Now they are feeling a little restless.
These days, the monks in the city not only have to patrol and be vigilant against the evil cultivators lurking in the dark, but also have to devote their attention to comforting the people. They are so busy that they have no time to rest.
Yue Jian, who is in charge of the city's dispatch, is so busy that he is rarely seen and often does not return home all night.
But the people in the inn were even more bored. Look, Yu Feichen was holding a piece of dogtail grass in his mouth, with an unhappy look on his face.
"Li Nian, when do you think this will end? I'm really going crazy. My master and father's jade slips are about to explode."
Li Nian leaned against the wooden railing and said casually, "It's still a long time, there's no need to rush. What's the matter? Is Master Yu missing home?"
The gates of Wuyue City are now closed, and no one can enter or leave. All outsiders have been stranded in the city for some time.
Yu Feichen scratched his head, the root of his tongue pressed against the grass roots, and after a while he said, "It's not that I think too much, but after going through all these things, I understand a truth."
Li Nian raised his eyebrows and motioned him to continue.
Yu Feichen cleared his throat and said seriously
"Freedom is precious, but life is more precious."
Li Nian: “…”
Yu Feichen was born into a fortunate family. He was the young master of the Shendan Pavilion. He had a smooth life and was raised in the palm of his hand. He never encountered any danger.
It was only twice. If it weren't for Li Nian, he would have said goodbye to this world.
Li Nian blinked his eyes, which curved into crescents, and said with a hint of smile, "It's okay, nothing will happen if you follow me, you won't die."
Yu Feichen looked at her dimly. He couldn't believe a single word of what she said. It couldn't be more fake.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Li Nian's expression change. He looked at him seriously and said -
"Although...but there may be a little surprise now."
As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful and terrifying aura came quietly and enveloped the two of them. Yu Feichen turned his head stiffly, his lips trembling slightly.
"You...you lied to me again!" His voice was shaking, and it was easy to tell that the boy was about to collapse.
Li Nian's lazy posture suddenly changed. He was on guard, but a hint of understanding flashed in his eyes. But it finally came.
"Little girl, I told you. I'm determined to have you."
A voice that sounded like it was filled with sand and struck by thunder was heard. Li Nian curled his lips and smiled, but his expression showed no fear at all.
She knew she couldn't escape, so she didn't waste her energy struggling and just said calmly, "Oh? That's fine."
The Ghost King Tower did not last long. The ghost cultivator was choked by Li Nian's indifferent tone. He waved his sleeves, and a thick and powerful ghost energy attacked and wrapped around Li Nian's body.
When the ghost energy rolled around Yu Feichen's waist, Li Nian seized the opportunity and kicked him in the butt, kicking him several meters away.
The next moment, Li Nian was covered by ghost energy and lost consciousness.
Yu Feichen fell to the ground with his hands covering his butt in a funny way. When he turned around, he saw that Li Nian was gone. His lips trembled. This scene seemed familiar.
However, unlike the last time when it was carried away by the formation, this time it was retained.
Soon, a shrill young voice echoed throughout the inn—
"Help! Li Nian has been captured!!!"
