Cheng Qi had felt several strong auras outside, stronger than those high-level warriors gathered in the Endless Forest for the battle. “Young master, were the people outside very powerful?” he asked.
Li Tianyan, thinking Cheng Qi was scared, reached out and patted Cheng Qi’s back after speaking, “It’s okay.”
“We have to find a way out quickly,” Cheng Qi heard the commotion outside. It seemed that many people were frightened and wanted to escape from the town. They could just take advantage of the chaos to sneak out, otherwise it would be more difficult to leave after the chaos passed.
Li Tianyan thought the same way and took out two disguise pills, and Cheng Qi took one each. Although they all had simple disguises on their faces, it was not easy to avoid the detection of the cultivators.
“Those who wanted to go out, please line up,” two high-level warriors blocked the only exit of the town and shouted to the crowd who were crowded here and wanted to leave the town.
“What are you doing? We are just farmers nearby and have no money,” a peasant woman saw these two fierce men and thought they were going to collect tolls, so she said nervously.
She was happily going to the town to go to the market, but suddenly she found that Wufeng Town was surrounded by several high walls. Seeing such a change, everyone had no intention of shopping, and they all just wanted to go home as soon as possible.
“What do you want to do? Stand still,” the two warriors grabbed a man who was trying to escape from them. The cultivator supervising them immediately scanned the man a few times. Only when he found out that the man was a warrior did he let the man go.
The two warriors saw that people were panicking and refused to cooperate, so they raised their voices and said, “These are cultivators from Tianfan Immortal Sect. They are just looking for two sect traitors, so everyone can rest assured. As long as you line up properly for the check, nothing will happen.”

After hearing that they were from Tianfan Immortal Sect, the panic on everyone’s faces faded slightly, and then they began to queue up calmly. Li Tianyan and Cheng Qi also mixed in with a few lifeless country people among them.
.
“Senior sister, why were we assigned to such a poor place?” Liu Shiran was so smoked by the smell of sweat from these rural farmers, she covered her mouth and nose and complained with a dissatisfied pout.
“They are second-grade disciples of the inner sect, and Senior Brother Zhan actually arranged for them to be monitored in such a remote place in the countryside,” another person commented.
“I thought this mission was very simple, just to capture a young man with a fourth level of Qi Condensation, and exchange for a lot of contribution points when we went back. But I didn’t expect that more than half a month had passed, and Li Tianyan had just disappeared from the world, even we had to stay in the mortal world and search around. Even if we catch someone in the end, the inheritance won’t be around for people like us,” someone else remarked.
Li Tianyan secretly glanced at the two female cultivators wearing blue robes of Tianfan Immortal Sect and found that the one called Senior Sister was an eighth-level Qi Condensation cultivator, and the other one also had a seventh-level Qi Condensation. Thinking of his current level of cultivation, Li Tianyan sighed inwardly, but couldn’t help but act more cautiously.
At this moment, Lin Hong happened to catch a glimpse of two lifeless young boys. It was said that Li Tianyan was accompanied by a fourteen-year-old shuanger. Looking at the two men mixed in the team, they looked exactly like the description in terms of body shape and height. When she saw them almost passing over, Lin Hong immediately signaled for someone to stop them.
“Why do you want to arrest me and my brother? We just came to the town to play, and our parents are waiting for us to go back,” even though the older boy had a look of fear on his face, he still didn’t forget to protect the younger brother beside him.
“Where are you from? What’s your name?” Liu Shiran waited for them to be brought forward before opening the portrait in her hand for comparison.
“My name is Li Zhuo, and my younger brother’s name is Li Zhuang. He is from Lijia Village,” after the young man named Li Zhuo finished speaking, his eyes inadvertently saw the portrait in the other person’s hand, and his face suddenly felt strange.
Liu Shiran saw that the two people had no resemblance to the people in the portrait, but she was not in a hurry to release them. Instead, she took out a jade stone for them to test.
When Li Tianyan saw this scene, he took advantage of the cultivators’ attention being drawn to the two young men and quickly moved Cheng Qi to the exit. He didn’t stop until he was stopped.
“Where are you from?” Two warriors at the door stopped an old couple in front of them and asked in a routine manner.
The old man supported the old woman beside him and replied with a face full of fear, “We are from Dashan Village. I came to the town to buy salt with my wife today.”
“Everyone from Dashan Village just went there together. Why didn’t you two go with them?” The two warriors frowned and asked again when he heard about Dashan Village.
“My wife and I are old and have weak legs and feet, so we have been left behind. We are really from Dashan Village,” the old woman said with a sad face.
The warrior glanced at the salt shaker in her hand, and then at the two rickety old couple with wrinkled faces and ragged clothes, before taking a step back and said, “You can go.”
“Yes, old man, slow down, be careful of falling,” the old woman saw that they could pass and staggered out of the town following her husband.
