Sky Region City, deep within the City Lord's Mansion, in the great hall.

A stalwart middle-aged man flew into a rage. His face was ugly as he roared, "Bastard! A bunch of rice buckets! There's even you! You …" He swept his gaze over the group of advisers, and the star power within his body exploded forth, pressing down on them like a mountain.

Pfft!

More than a dozen advisers were sent flying. They coughed out mouthfuls of blood as their faces twitched.

In the next moment, he extended his hand to grab Duan Wuhen's neck, and looked at him maliciously: "What's the use of keeping you alive? "A piece of trash."

Duan Wuhen's face flushed red, his eyes narrowed as he clenched his hands. His entire body was trembling. He wanted to resist, but he didn't dare. He didn't have the ability to do so either.

"Where is he? Who can tell me? " "Stand up and speak," the mayor shouted, sweeping his eyes over the trembling and terrified advisers.

Swish!

More than ten strategists stood up, holding back their pain and injuries.

The advisor calmed himself down, took a deep breath and said with a slightly trembling voice, "Reporting to the City Lord, they should be heading towards the Broken Heaven Mountain Range."

The middle-aged City Lord roared, "Hurry up and chase him!"

His soul was trembling as he explained carefully, "The Heaven Breaking Mountain Range is so vast and limitless. Three days ago, we sent out a huge army of one hundred thousand to search for it, but we haven't found it yet."

Pfft!

The middle-aged man slapped over with a tremendous amount of power, directly killing that advisor. The entire hall was dyed red with blood.

Everyone's body shook as they went silent like cicadas in the winter.

Even Duan Wuhen did not dare to speak, his body trembling uncontrollably, the hatred in his heart overflowing to the heavens.

"City Lord."

Suddenly, a voice rang out in the midst of the furious scene.

Everyone subconsciously looked over, and the speaker was Wu Qing, who was sitting upright by the side.

As soon as Wu Qing said this, all the strategists and Duan Wuhen tensed up.

He continued, "The other side only has three people, and they are carrying such a heavy statue. I did not expect that the speed would not be very fast, and most importantly, they cannot leave with the help of a flying ship. As long as it is within the Broken Sky Mountain Range, isn't their life or death at the hands of the City Lord?"

The Broken Sky Mountain Range was also a part of the border pass and was under the jurisdiction of the Sky Region City.

Even though the mountain range was huge and boundless, the depths of the mountain range was filled with terrifying existences, such as Demonic Beast s, Vicious Beast s, etc. Ordinary cultivators would not even dare to step foot there.

Wu Qing absolutely had reason to believe that they wouldn't dare to do so. Moreover, once they went deep in, it was very easy for them to lose themselves in it.

There was only one way, and that was to walk along the edge of the Broken Sky Mountain Range. They could avoid the crowds, but they could also reduce the danger.

The middle-aged City Lord calmed down as he glanced coldly at the group of strategists, "Five days, I'll give you five days. If you can't find the person or get the deity statue back, you won't even need to come back."

Five days?

The group of strategists looked at each other as their faces turned pale white. With how big the Broken Sky Mountain Range was, how much space could it cover in five days?

Fine!

Five days was five days. Looking at the furious City Lord, they no longer dared to refute him and left with ashen faces.

Duan Wuhen wanted to leave as well, but was stopped by Wu Qing, "Young Noble Duan, you are the one who has the deepest contact with those few people. Can you draw their portraits?"

Duan Wuhen remained silent. He did not speak, but instead stopped in his tracks.

Not long after, a few servants came over with a pen and ink.

An hour later, the first portrait was out. It was Chen Meng.

Immediately after, the second portrait, was taken by Li Yi.

When Wu Qing saw the first portrait, doubts arose in his heart. This girl seemed very familiar to him, as though he had seen her somewhere before, until the second portrait appeared.

Wu Qing's body jerked as he abruptly stood up from his seat. His expression turned icy cold and his eyes were suffused with a shocking killing intent.

It was them.

The group of people that met in the crater of the volcano.

Back then, he had just walked in. Although he had his doubts, due to the strength of the other party, he didn't do anything excessive.

It was only when he entered the depths that he found out that his martial uncle had been killed.

One had to know, his Junior Master was a fourth stage Talisman Dao Ranker! Such a powerful force had actually died in the depths of the volcano.

Wu Qing was furious on the spot as he swore inwardly that he would find the murderer to avenge his Martial Uncle.

He never thought that he would meet two people from that group here.

The mayor looked over in confusion, "Young master? What? You've seen these two before? "

Duan Wuhen looked at him.

Wu Qing regained his senses and said coldly, "I have."

With the return of the City Lord, the entire Sky Region City, and even the border gates, became even more boisterous.

Almost every day, people could see the soldiers rushing back and forth.

Within the ancient city of Darknorth, some experts also began to enter the Broken Sky Mountain Range.

In Weicheng, the Dragon Dynasty of Grand Xia, there were also quite a few experts who began to take action.

What Li Yi and Yue Yang had stolen was a peerless divine weapon that the City Lord of Sky Region had forged for four years.

On the fourth day.

The injuries on Li Yi's body gradually improved.

Hu Tiankun walked over, his expression was gloomy: "Fifth Young Noble, we should be going." If it were not for the fact that he and Chen Meng were unable to handle the statue, they would have long ago left.

Li Yi nodded.

After an hour, the group began their journey.

Not long after they left, a strategist and several hundred soldiers came to this place.

On the way.

Li Yi could not help but ask, "Are we going to walk back to the capital like this?"

It would take at least a month to walk the five days distance of the spaceship. It was still considered small. If he encountered anything along the way, the travel time would increase significantly.

Hu Tiankun replied: "Fifth Young Master, we have two choices. One, as you said, we'll walk back to the capital like this, two, after we escape from the border, we'll find a residence to board the flying ship."

Li Yi grinned: "I choose the second choice."

Hu Tiankun paused for a moment before explaining, "From the border gates to the capital, there are a total of fifty-six residences. Amongst them, there are more than twenty that are under the control of the Gao Family, and more than ten that are under the control of the Lan family.

Li Yi was confused listening to her, and did not understand what she meant.

With a serious expression, he continued, "Unless you can hide the deity statue, you might not even be able to enter through the city gates."

He could not help but ask, "Why? Could it be that everyone knows about the existence of the God Sculpture? "

Hu Tiankun nodded his head, "In the short period of eight or ten days, they might not know, but after ten days, they might not know." With his understanding of Sky Region City Lord, he would not send news back to the capital in such a short period of time. He would only use this time to get the statue back.

There was also one more thing. It was the tenth day since they had escaped from Sky Region City and entered the Broken Sky Mountain Range.

Li Yi paused for a moment, and could not help but fall silent.

Chen Meng turned his face away, baffled.

Hu Tiankun muttered, "Perhaps in the entire Shang Kingdom, other than Fifth Institute, no one would wish for the deity statue to return to the hands of the Fifth Institute once again."
