Chen Yang glanced at Han Li and sighed, "As for Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit, I've already thoroughly investigated Profound City and the other three cities, but I haven't found any clues."

"You didn't find him?" Han Li furrowed his brows.

"If Fellow Daoist Violet Spirit is in Profound City, then even if there's no definite news, there should still be rumors. But according to my investigations, there's not a single rumor about Violet Spirit.

I speculate that he was either in the Puppet City or in the Scale Realm, but he was unfortunately eaten by the Scale Beasts, "Chen Yang hurriedly said.

Han Li's expression darkened upon hearing this, but he didn't say anything.

"Violet Spirit might not have been found, but I've found out about Shi Kong. He's currently in the City Lord's Mansion, but he's been locked up in prison," Chen Yang said.

"Locked up in prison?

Did you find out why? "Han Li asked.

"The City Lord's Mansion is keeping a tight watch on this information. I've asked around, but I didn't find any useful clues.

Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Li, even though Shi Kong is locked up, his life isn't in any danger, "Chen Yang shook his head in a resigned manner.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Chen. Even though I wasn't able to find Violet Spirit, I was able to find out about Shi Kong's whereabouts, so I've fulfilled my request," Han Li said after a brief silence.

Chen Yang inwardly heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Then I'll be taking my leave." Han Li nodded before departing.

Chen Yang looked at Han Li's departing figure with a peculiar glint in his eyes, and he returned to his room.

Daoist Xie was currently standing in a corner of the room with his head lowered, and he slowly raised his head upon seeing Chen Yang return.

"You don't seem to be in a good mood," Daoist Xie said expressionlessly.

"If you were the City Lord, I'm sure you wouldn't be in a good mood if your subordinates were blindly confident," Chen Yang said with a wry smile.

Daoist Xie remained silent upon hearing this.

"Although Yi Liya is strong, he is too conceited. Compared to the top experts of the other cities, there is still a gap. I'm afraid that only Gu Qianxun has some hope.

As for that Fellow Daoist Li of yours, I can't see through him, but I'm afraid he's still inferior to Gu Qianxun, "Chen Yang murmured to himself.

…

Han Li left Chen Yang's residence and quickly returned to his room, his mind spinning.

Shi Chuankong was currently locked in the prison of Xuan City, and it would not be easy to rescue him. After being in Xuan City for such a long time, he had already felt that Xuan City was much more powerful than Qingyang City. It would not be easy to rescue him from the prison.

As for Violet Spirit, he did not know whether she was faring well or not.

Han Li sat in silence for a long time. Suddenly, he shook his head and calmed his mind. His expression became calm again.

Now was not the time to think about Violet Spirit and Shi Chuankong. He had to fight the Five Cities Martial Tournament first, get the Heavenly Qilin Meteorite Crystal, and get rid of the hidden danger of the Black Tribulation Bug before thinking about other things.

Han Li thought to himself as he slowly closed his eyes.

…

Within a stone hall in the City Lord's Courtyard, Autumn Sand Courtyard.

A burly middle-aged man wrapped in a beast skin cloak was leaning against a wide stone chair. His dark nose shone under the light of the fire. He was none other than the City Lord of Tongyu City, Fu Jian.

Below him sat six cultivators from Tongyu City, one on each side of the table.

"City Master Eche clearly places great importance on the Five Cities Martial Competition this time. Every single one of the rewards is extraordinary. All of you must do your best and strive to be amongst the best.

Especially you, Duan Tong, "Fu Jian said with a glint in his eyes.

The burly man covered in bandages was sitting right below him. After a long while, Fu Jian's voice fell, he only let out a muffled "hmm", and no other reaction.

Fu Jian seemed to be used to this and did not mind. He continued, "Let's not talk about Zhu Ziyuan of Mysterious City for now. Fang Chan of Opal City and Feng Wuchen of Xuanzhi City, are you confident you can defeat them?"

"Although Feng Wuchen has the advantage in speed, as long as he can't break through my defence, it won't be a problem. Once he gets close to me, it will be what I want," Duan Tong said after a moment of silence.

"What about Fang Chan?" Fu Jian asked.

"I haven't fought him before, so I'm not sure.

However, he was able to defeat Gu Qianxun last time, which shows that he is quite strong.

After so many years, his battle strength should have increased, "Duan Tong said after a moment of silence.

"Mm, it's good that you're so cautious …" Fu Jian nodded and said.

…

At the entrance of another stone hall in the garden, there were people walking out of the hall one after another.

Very soon, there was only a tall, skinny, middle-aged man and a handsome Youth in white clothes left in the hall. They were Qin Yuan and Feng Wuchen.

"Wuchen, you've been in seclusion these days. Did you make a breakthrough again?" Qin Yuan asked with a smile.

"Godfather, I've been cultivating for many years. I only managed to unlock another chakra yesterday," Feng Wuchen replied respectfully.

"Not bad, not bad … It's a good sign.

Looks like you'll definitely be able to enter the top three in the Five Cities Martial Competition, "Qin Yuan nodded and smiled.

When Feng Wuchen heard that, he frowned slightly and fell silent.

"What's wrong?

Is there something on your mind? "Qin Yuan raised his eyebrows and asked.

"I don't know why, but I feel that something is wrong in this martial competition. I feel uneasy," Feng Wuchen said after a moment of hesitation.

"Oh?

Could it be that his visit to Madame Liu Hua was fruitless and he was unable to obtain a brand new weapon?

No matter how good a weapon is, it's just an external object. In the Jilin Empty Realm, our bodies are the foundation, "Qin Yuan said with a frown.

"Godfather, you're right. I was thinking too much," Feng Wuchen said hurriedly.

"But the situation this time was indeed out of my expectations. Not only did you fail to get anything from Madam Liu Hua, even when I went to visit him personally, I was told that he was refining a weapon in seclusion and was shut out," Qin Yuan said.

"Could it be because of the two people from Qingyang City?

Previously, they suddenly took out some token and forcefully took away my chance to visit Madam Liu Hua.

After that, I wanted to visit him a few times, but I wasn't allowed to, "Feng Wuchen said as he raised his head.

"How did the two brats from Qingyang City get so much power?

It's most likely because we did something wrong that made Madam Liu Hua unhappy.

I'll try to visit him again after the martial competition, "Qin Yuan waved his hand and said.

"It doesn't matter if it's because of those two or not. The moment I bump into them in the sparring, I'll definitely not let them have it easy. As for Gu Qianxun, I might still need to expend some effort. As for that human …" Feng Wuchen stopped halfway through his sentence. His sinister smile was filled with killing intent.

...

At the same time, the people of Opal City had gathered in a large hall. Sun Tu was making preparations for the battle.

"The Martial Competition of the Five Cities is about to begin. I don't expect everyone to be among the best, but I hope that you will do your best and at least win the first battle. When we return to Opal City, I will reward you according to your performance," Sun Tu said loudly.

"We will do our best and not let you down," a man in a grey robe immediately responded.

Soon after, the crowd also shouted, "We will do our best and not let you down …"

Amidst the impassioned cheers, there were also intermittent, discordant snoring sounds.

The source of the snoring was Fang Chan, who was sitting to the left of Sun Tu's seat.

At this moment, he was half lying on the stone chair with his back to him, snoring loudly in his sleep.

No one knew what kind of sweet dream he was having, but his ugly pig-like face was filled with a satisfied smile. Saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth, and from time to time, he would smack his lips and mumble incoherently.

The more excited Sun Tu was, the louder his snoring became. However, everyone present seemed to be used to this and no one thought anything was wrong.

Just then, Fang Chan's throat suddenly moved. Di Bao Tian's mouth opened slightly and the snoring from his mouth suddenly became softer and softer. The snoring became louder and louder.

After the snoring, a strange wave came from his mouth and nose.

At first, the tables and chairs in the stone hall began to shake slightly. Then, everyone felt their limbs go numb and their heads become heavy.

"It's happening again …" The crowd sighed.

When Sun Tu saw this, a trace of a smile appeared on his lips. He bent his finger and flicked Fang Chan's forehead.

Fang Chan's body trembled violently. His eyes opened abruptly and he looked at the people around him blankly.

Sun Tu raised his sleeve and wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth. He said with a smile, "It's okay. Go back to sleep …"

Fang Chan gave a silly smile and adjusted his sitting position. He leaned his head back and fell asleep again.

…

At night, the moonlight was as bright as frost.

In the City Lord's Mansion, on the roof of an independent hall, two figures lay side by side, looking up at the starry sky.

One of them had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. He had a dignified appearance and wore white bone armor. His hands were behind his head and his expression was calm. It was Zhu Ziyuan, who had won the Five Cities Martial Competition several times in a row.

The other person had a beautiful appearance and a cold temperament. She also wore a tight-fitting bone armor and had exquisite curves.

"Big Brother, the City Lord is really something. He didn't do anything about the mobilization before the war, but let you do it …" The beautiful woman complained softly.

"Zi Qing, this is the City Lord's Mansion. No matter how soft your voice is, the City Lord can still hear you." Zhu Ziyuan smiled.

"The City Lord is magnanimous. He won't care about this." The beautiful woman hurriedly stuck out her tongue when she heard this and tried to make up for it.

"This is the first time you are participating in the Five Cities Martial Competition. You must remember the battle strength of each city.

Tong Yu City's Duan Tong's Tongxuan Arm is not to be underestimated. I think he … "

Before Zhu Ziyuan could finish speaking, he was interrupted by his sister, Zhu Ziqing, "Alright, alright!

Big Brother, including what I said at the mobilization meeting, this is already the seventh time. My ears are about to get calluses … "
