Chapter 275 Chaos
Yin Yang Palace.
The bald old Taoist stood atop the mountain, gazing at the drifting clouds below, his hand constantly changing hand seals, as if sensing something.
So many days have passed, and the Yin-Yang Palace still hasn't found Li Baozheng's whereabouts, as if he had vanished from Qingzhou into thin air.
He risked using a divination book yesterday, but as of today, he still hasn't found any information about Li Baozheng.
But the bald old Taoist knew that Li Baozheng had to be found, because if Changqingzi were resurrected, the entire Seven Absolutes Palace would be destroyed.
No, it's not just the Seven Absolutes Palace.
All shrines, regardless of faction or strength, are doomed to die!!
Thinking of this, the bald old Taoist's eyes immediately turned bloodshot.
"Damn it, damn it! Why haven't we found it yet?! These incompetent bastards from the Yin-Yang Palace!"
"No! I don't want to go back to the past!"
As the bald old Taoist priest finished speaking, he became completely deranged, jumping and leaping on the mountaintop, occasionally bursting into laughter.
...
Sitting in the City of Oblivion.
Ding Yi was standing in the blacksmith shop watching Wang Zhou forge iron when he suddenly heard a commotion coming from the street outside.
"Look, Li Baozheng's bounty has been increased again!"
"My God, is Li Baozheng working for the Yin Yang Palace?"
"Remove 'is' from the list!"
"They also said that anyone who looks like someone can be reported!"
"No way, you look like it too. Can I report you?"
"Hahaha! What are you kidding me for?"
Ding Yi frowned, listening to the commotion of the onlookers, and felt somewhat suspicious.
"The Yin-Yang Palace is supposed to be the overlord of Qingzhou, so why is it compromising so much with an evil god?"
Ding Yi didn't understand, but he didn't take it seriously and turned back to watch Wang Zhou forge iron.
These past few days, he has been using spiritual energy to cultivate every night, tempering his physical body and soul.
Unfortunately, ever since that day when I gained an endless supply of lifespan, the lifespan I've gained in the last few days has begun to shrink considerably.
Ding Yi guessed that the battle a few days ago was probably a major one, while the recent skirmishes had been mostly small-scale skirmishes.
Fortunately, the reputation of this blacksmith shop seems to have spread, and yesterday the Yin-Yang Palace even sent people to deliver a reward to these blacksmiths.
Duan Hai seemed particularly excited about the reward from the Yin Yang Palace.
His ancestors had been blacksmiths for three generations, but none of them had ever become so famous as this time. Duan Hai could be said to have brought glory to his ancestors, and he could walk sideways in the afterlife!
But none of this mattered to Ding Yi. What mattered was that, taking advantage of this opportunity, the weapons forged by the Duan family blacksmith shop began to be transported to the borders of Qingzhou and Bazhou.
Before this, Ding Yi was thinking about how to open up the transport channel to Guanyue City, but now it seems that everything has come to fruition without any effort.
"The entire land is but my life-sustaining base; let chaos reign."
Ding Yi watched Wang Zhou's hammer fall relentlessly, a cold smile playing on his lips.
And so, a few more days passed.
Early in the morning, a man was running frantically down the street, while several burly men in tight-fitting clothes were chasing after him.
"I'm not Li Baozheng, my name is Li Bao, are you guys crazy?!"
The man ran while cursing, his face flashing with panic.
"If it wasn't you, why are you running?!"
The burly man behind him immediately cursed angrily, and the running man was stunned for a moment. But in that short time, the burly men caught up with him and quickly pinned him to the ground.
"Gentlemen, my name is really Li Bao, not Li Baozheng! That beast Wang Er owes me money, you... Ah!!"
Before the man could finish speaking, a burly man severed his Achilles tendon, and the sudden pain immediately caused him to scream in agony.
But soon, he could no longer make a sound. A rag was stuffed into his mouth, and then the big man took out a sack and put it over his head. Several people carried it and quickly left the place.
The scene left the people on the street looking at each other in disbelief; they seemed to find it hard to believe that such a thing could happen at the foot of Zuowang Peak.
But Ding Yi remained calm when he saw this.
"It seems the evil god is in a hurry."
Ding Yi quickly came to a conclusion.
"Kid, stop looking. I've worked here for over ten years and I've never encountered anything like this. You're new to the city, aren't you? Don't wander around too much lately."
Wang Zhou also witnessed this scene, and he solemnly instructed Ding Yi beside him.
"Thank you for your concern, Master Wang."
Ding Yi chuckled.
And it seems that this incident during the day started a trend, with similar incidents appearing in various parts of Qingzhou.
The dungeons of the city's censorate were filled with people in a single day, and the last cell had to be converted into a ten-person cell.
The filthy and foul-smelling environment caused some people with poor health to die in their cells within a few days, but even so, their bodies would not be removed until their identities were confirmed.
The entire Qingzhou had become a living hell!
At the highest point of Zuowang Peak is the Yin-Yang Hall.
Inside Chu Wenxuan's palace, he looked at the letter delivered by his subordinates and then shook his head slightly.
"Palace Master, still no discovery?"
Elder Dong Xu of Yangji Palace stood in the main hall and asked Chu Wenxuan.
"No."
Chu Wenxuan shook his head.
Dong Xu hesitated for a moment, then continued:
“Palace Master, if this continues, Qingzhou, which we have worked so hard to build up, will be thrown into chaos. Moreover, we are currently at war with Yizhou and Bazhou.”
Chu Wenxuan smiled and said upon hearing this:
“I understand what you mean, but that guy is right here in my Yin Yang Palace. Unless I guide the true gods of my palace down to the mortal realm, there is no way to negotiate with that old Taoist.”
"It's a pity. If we want the true god to descend to the mortal realm, we need more people to die to activate the god-descending array buried under Qingzhou. So, although I knew that the old Taoist's actions were inappropriate, I did not stop him."
Upon hearing this, Dong Xu nodded and said:
"That makes sense. Then, Palace Master, why not just kill more people and animals?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Wenxuan's expression immediately turned cold, and he said:
"Absurd! Our Yin Yang Palace is based on the principle of putting people first, how can we indiscriminately kill innocent people?!"
Upon hearing this, Dong Xu's expression turned strange, but he still nodded in agreement.
Upon hearing this, Chu Wenxuan continued:
"In that case, I estimate it will be about half a month later. During this time, keep an eye on the source image and report to me immediately if there is any movement."
Upon hearing this, Dong Xu immediately responded and then hurriedly left the main hall.
Chu Wenxuan watched Dong Xu's departing figure, then suddenly his whole body trembled, and a completely woman's voice rang out from his mouth:
"Brother, if I eat that old Taoist priest, I should be able to break through these shackles and break through to the Lu Xian realm."
The next moment, Chu Wenxuan's male voice let out a cold snort:
"These shackles are not as simple as you think. Master has not appeared since he went into seclusion to break through, and even when the True God of the Seven Absolutes Palace descended to the mortal realm, that old codger did not come out!"
"Brother, did Master fail to break through?"
"Even if the Yin-Yang Palace destroys that old codger, he won't die! I'm also very curious, what exactly did he see after he ate a true god last time?"
As Chu Wenxuan finished speaking, his face turned completely gloomy.
"So, Li Baozheng, after finding him, is he really going to give him to this old man? I always feel like he's not telling the truth."
The woman's voice rang out again.
"Don't worry, they will all be ours, my dear sister."
As Chu Wenxuan spoke, he suddenly opened his arms and picked himself up.
