Chapter 406 - Night of Twin Moons (2) (1/2)
Ren Fuyao was too late to stop it. There was a flash of light, the cultivator had already been cut in half through his waist, and his blood made a gushing noise and sprayed all around. His legs were still running forward, and his eyes were wide and round, as he stared at his lower body rushing to the gate. Just as it was about to exit the city gate, something unknown smashed him into minced meat turning into dust soon after, not leaving a trace behind.
“Bang” With a sound half of his body fell on the floor.
The scene was deathly still.
The people behind Ren Fuyao who were originally restless, were all overwhelmed with horror, no longer daring to act blindly.
After a moment, Huangfu Jin opened his mouth, “Young Master Lin, your swordplay is quite good, did you happen to see who acted?”
Lin Xuanzhi said, “No matter how good my swordplay is, it’s only at the third layer of the Hardened Body Stage, if you, who has already entered the Primary Realm, was not able to see it clearly, then I naturally would not have been able to clearly see it as well.”
“Gulp.”
It is not known who gulped.
This scene really was extremely terrible.
The cultivator who boldly courted death rashly, served once again as proof of Lin Xuanzhi’s thoughts, that there is not a single person in Twin Moons City who could be challenged by them.
If they wanted to leave, they would have to find another method.
However, the silver lining in their misfortune was that after killing someone, those guards didn’t pay attention to what had just been done, and they faced each other remaining fully concentrated with a meaning of “If you don’t look for a fight, I won’t pay attention to you.”.
Seeing that the city gate could be considered impossible to leave from, Lin Xuanzhi had no choice but to find the next best plan, which was to go to the City Lord’s mansion to have a look.
However, at this moment, an unknown ball woven by Purple rattans tumbled next to Lin Xuanzhi’s feet.
Lin Xuanzhi followed the direction that the ball rolled over from and saw a child wearing a big red robe.
He looked exactly like the Little Monkey they had been looking for all these days. They had not even managed to see a trace of his shadow.
Several eyes uniformly fell on Little Monkey, for a moment no one spoke, as if they were afraid to scare away the child.
Nonetheless, Yan Tianhen spoke first. He picked up the ball and waved at Little Monkey, showing a mouthful of white teeth and smiling, “Hey, long time no see.”
Little Monkey beamed and walked over, “Long time no see, you actually haven’t left Twin Moons City. Are you perhaps invited to attend the birthday feast of the Young City Lord?”

The mistress of the Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital?
Where did this rumor come from?
Lin Xuanzhi and the others were shocked, especially Wan Yitong and Bei Shitian, they had the feeling of going to the opera — in the past, when they were in Nine Lands, they only knew that the Nine Great Divine Clans and a quasi-divine clan were striving for the ruling position of the Purple Emperor’s Heavenly Capital every year. They simply had never heard of a time when a person had been designated as the empress since birth.
Wan Yitong couldn’t help but roast him, “To actually dare to say these words, if Twin Moons City is not exterminated, who else would be exterminated? That is the seat of the Empress of Heaven, once someone sits on it, who knows how much it will advance the succession rights of that Empress’s entire family’s disciples. The Yin Family…. How can the other Divine Clans not put them under surveillance?”
Bei Shitian said, “You should speak less.”
Wan Yitong blankly stared and became aware that Little Monkey was looking at him.
Little Monkey smiled, showing two dimples on his cheeks and said, “Big brother, what are you saying? Why can’t I understand?”
Wan Yitong had some trouble speaking for a moment, and after a pause, he resisted his temper and patiently said, “Little brother, although I don’t know who you are, but if you have the connections, go tell City Lord Yin that this rumor from Twin Moons City will bring death and calamity to this city.”
The smile on Little Monkey’s face disappeared, and his expression became rather strange and complex. He stared at Wan Yitong and said, “Older Brother, for you to say these kinds of words only now, it’s already too late.”
Wan Yitong: “…”
How is it too late?
Why is it too late?
And also why was it so strange when this sentence comes out of the mouth of a child?
After Little Monkey said the phrase “too late”, he looked out toward the gate and surveyed the scene, with his beautiful black and white eyes full of eager anticipation, as if waiting for someone to come.
Lin Xuanzhi walked next to Little Monkey and said, “Your Brother Lou hasn’t come yet?”
Little Monkey was full of hope and said, “He will come. Brother Lou promised me that he will definitely come today.”
Lin Xuanzhi paused for a moment and said, “He will come.”
Little Monkey smiled towards Lin Xuanzhi and waved his hand at him. “The birthday feast of Young City Lord is about to start, I also have to leave.”
He also reminded, “Today, the city is lively, nonetheless the city gate is quiet. You guys should stay here, it’ll be harder to get separated.”
