Chapter 887

The arm emitted a white light. Wherever it passed, a white mark was left in the air, as if it was about to be torn apart.

Han Li's chest was hit by the palm. A huge force came crashing down. His body flew back several times faster and slammed into the stone door behind him.

"Peng!" A loud sound rang out!

The stone door was smashed into pieces, and rubble flew everywhere.

Han Li's body smashed into the ground, creating a big pit.

Now that his physical strength had increased greatly, even though he had been hit, he did not suffer any serious injuries. However, a hint of dizziness appeared in his mind, and he was about to turn over and leap up.

Just at this moment, two sharp whistling sounds rang out. Two black shadows descended like lightning. They were two black chains that rapidly wrapped around his arms and legs. Then, with a "ka" sound, they locked tightly.

The two black chains were extremely tough. Han Li's body suddenly couldn't move. His heart sank.

Without waiting for him to struggle again, a figure appeared in front of him in a flash, and a shining white palm grabbed his throat.

"Stop struggling. You can't escape." The owner of the hand sneered. It was Chen Yang.

At this moment, two black-robed armored soldiers appeared next to the pit, each holding the other end of the black chain.

Han Li's face was pale, but he didn't struggle anymore.

The Xuan fighters in the ninth district were shocked. But when they saw Chen Yang and the others, they didn't dare to say anything.

"How did you know?" Han Li looked at Chen Yang and asked slowly.

"Why should I know? With your personality, you won't just let yourself be captured. You'll definitely take action.

It's funny that Hu Ben and the others didn't notice anything and gave me such a big credit. "Chen Yang glanced at the people nearby and said.

Han Li didn't say anything.

One of the black-robed soldiers took out a pair of shackles and put them on Han Li.

"This person has violated the rules of the Xuan Arena. He will be detained at the city lord's mansion to receive punishment. You don't need to panic. This has nothing to do with you." Chen Yang said to the people nearby.

The people didn't calm down after hearing this. They looked at each other.

"Take him away!" Chen Yang ignored the crowd and walked out.

At this moment, Daoist Xie also walked out and followed behind Chen Yang, not even sparing a glance at Han Li.

Han Li frowned slightly when he saw this.

Two black-robed armored soldiers escorted Han Li and quickly left the 9th district.

The figures of these people disappeared at the end of the horizon. The 9th district was in an uproar. Everyone was discussing the cause and effect of Han Li's capture.

Behind the crowd, a figure stood there quietly. It was Chen Lin.

His eyes flashed, and after a long while, he turned around and walked into his room.

…

Chen Yang's group quickly left the arena and entered Qingyang City.

The Castellan's Mansion was located at the highest point of Qingyang City. Chen Yang walked with Han Li in custody, attracting the attention of passers-by.

Han Li lowered his head as he walked. His eyes flickered, and thoughts churned in his mind.

"I know you have spiritual attacks, but this is Qingyang City. There's no way you can escape. Don't waste your energy. It will only increase your pain." Chen Yang seemed to have sensed Han Li's thoughts and sneered.

Han Li's pupils contracted, and he harrumphed coldly.

The group soon arrived at the Castellan's Mansion. The Castellan's Mansion was quite large, but it didn't have much of a luxurious atmosphere.

Chen Yang didn't announce his arrival and directly walked in with Han Li.

Chen Yang walked at the front alone. His eyes were deep, as if he was thinking about something.

Daoist Xie followed behind him in silence. He didn't even turn around to look at Han Li.

Han Li's hands were tied behind his back, and he was escorted by two armored soldiers. He followed Chen Yang all the way to the Castellan's Mansion.

"Castellan, I'm Chen Yang, and I would like to see you." Chen Yang walked up to the closed stone door and reported.

There was no response from inside the cave, and there was no movement from the two closed stone doors.

Chen Yang frowned slightly. Just as he was about to speak again, the heavy stone door opened with a heavy grinding sound.

"Come in."

A voice sounded from inside. It seemed to be filled with irrepressible anger.

Chen Yang crooked his finger, and the two armored soldiers brought Han Li to him, then excused themselves.

He looked up at Han Li with a pitiful smile. He pressed his hand on Han Li's shoulder and pushed him into the main hall of the cave.

The group walked through the door and found that there were four other people in the main hall apart from the Castellan, Du Qingyang.

These four people were the hunting captains who had been summoned by Du Qingyang along with Hu Ben.

"Why did you bring him here at a time like this?"

Seeing that Chen Yang had brought Han Li in, Du Qingyang's eyes flashed with a hint of displeasure as he asked.

"Reporting to the Castellan, I just came back from a hunt today and happened to encounter this person trying to escape from prison. So I captured him and brought him here for you to punish." Chen Yang cupped his fist and bowed.

"Oh, is that so?" Du Qingyang's face became more and more unsightly.

Seeing this, the four people beside him looked at each other with a hint of fear.

"Recently, the Xuan Fighting Ring seems to have neglected its security. I suggest that we increase the number of people to prevent similar incidents from happening again. I may not be so lucky next time." Chen Yang cupped his fist and said.

The square-faced Youth standing next to Du Qingyang heard this and glanced at Chen Yang. A trace of hatred flashed in his eyes. He was in charge of the defense of the Xuan Fighting Ring, so he had to bear a large part of the responsibility for Han Li's escape.

"Not bad. You've done a good job. You've done well." Although Du Qingyang did not smile, he still praised him.

Hearing this, the square-faced Youth secretly let out a sigh of relief when he saw that the Castellan did not intend to pursue the matter.

"It's my duty. If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave." Chen Yang bowed and said.

Du Qingyang's eyes fell on Chen Yang. After a moment of hesitation, he sighed and said, "Don't be in a hurry to leave.

"Don't be in such a hurry. There's something I want to discuss with you."

"I'll do as you say, Castellan." Chen Yang immediately said.

Du Qingyang waved his hand and signaled him to come forward. Chen Yang handed Han Li to Daoist Xie and quickly walked forward.

"This morning, Hu Ben was found dead in his room." Du Qingyang lowered his voice and said.

Hearing this, Chen Yang's expression suddenly changed. His face was full of shock as he asked, "Hu Ben is dead, what's going on?"

"I'm not sure. There are no external injuries on his body, and there are no signs of a fight in the room. However, there are traces of blood in his ears." Du Qingyang shook his head and said.

"There are traces of blood in his ears. Was he poisoned?

That shouldn't be the case. What kind of poison would work on Hu Ben's body? "Chen Yang was puzzled.

"I don't have a clue for now.

Now that he was dead, the task that he had been assigned to do would be in vain.

Since you've captured the fugitive, you can replace Hu Ben and preside over the Gama Blood Formation. What do you think? "Du Qingyang said slowly.

"Thank you, Castellan. I'm willing to serve you." Chen Yang was overjoyed and quickly cupped his fists.

"Before the ceremony, I need to go into seclusion for a while. You'll be in charge of setting up the blood formation.

As for the murder of Hu Ben, I'll send someone else to investigate it. You should strengthen the defense of Qingyang City. Everything in the near future will be centered on the Kyara Blood Formation. You must ensure that the ceremony goes smoothly, "Du Qingyang said as his eyes swept over the crowd.

"Yes." Chen Yang and the others cupped their fists in unison.

After that, Chen Yang and Daoist Xie escorted Han Li away, but they didn't return to the arena. Instead, they locked him up in a heavily guarded dungeon.

…

Time flew by, and over a month had passed.

In the dark dungeon without the slightest bit of light, the heavy prison door suddenly opened slowly, and two figures walked in.

"Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Li. How have you been?" A familiar voice sounded. It was Chen Yang.

Following behind him was naturally Daoist Xie.

"It's time?" Han Li, who was sitting in a corner of the room, slowly raised his head and glanced at him.

Chen Yang faltered slightly upon hearing this before replying with a smile, "You could say so."

Han Li didn't say anything. He stood up and patted the dust off his clothes before making his way out of the dungeon.

Several armored warriors guarding outside immediately came up to surround Han Li.

"Stand down," Chen Yang ordered.

The armored warriors immediately stepped aside, and Han Li made his way into the passageway.

Chen Yang made his way forward alongside Han Li, while Daoist Xie and the others followed behind them.

"Fellow Daoist Li, we've known each other for a while now. Do you have any unfulfilled wishes? Tell me, and perhaps I'll be able to fulfill them," Chen Yang teased with a smile.

"I hope you can let me go and send me out of Qingyang City, is that alright?" Han Li's expression remained unchanged.

"Of course … I can't.

However, if you're willing to teach me your cultivation method, I wouldn't mind letting your puppet bury your corpse in one piece. At the very least, you won't end up as food for the Scaled Beasts, "Chen Yang replied with a smile.

Han Li merely chuckled coldly in response and didn't say anything further.

Everyone followed the passageway in the belly of the mountain and went all the way down. Soon, they came to an underground space that occupied a large area.

The space here had a domed structure, and it appeared to be a naturally formed underground cave. Before they had even made it into the cave, they could already sense a scorching aura mixed with a fishy scent wafting toward them, and even Han Li couldn't help but wrinkle his nose.

Han Li made his way into the cave, and he was greeted by the sight of a strange stone platform that resembled a five-pointed star.

The stone platform had a radius of several hundred feet and was raised three feet above the ground. There were two indentations that were around a foot deep at the center, and at the tips of each of the five sharp corners was a circular platform that was around six feet tall, with a fist-sized beast core embedded into each of the indentations.

The five Beast Cores shone with a deep luster. Surprisingly, they were all Earth-rank Beast Cores of excellent quality.

At this moment, Du Qingyang and the other four captains were all standing beside the stone platform, as if they were waiting for their arrival.

(Fellow Daoists, I have a piece of great news that you've all been waiting for; the production of a mortal animated series has begun!!!

The commencement ceremony was just held today!!)
