Chapter 189 Caught
"What should we do? We seem to be trapped!"
Hu Ximei said anxiously, with a hint of trembling and fear in her voice.
"Don't panic, we will definitely find a way to crack it."
Although Su Daji felt a little nervous, she still tried to stay calm and tried to find a way to break the formation.
However, just when the three of them were extremely anxious, Zhenren Huanglong appeared from the darkness.
He looked coldly at the three people in front of him, with a smug smile on his face.
"Humph, you three evildoers actually dared to break into the formation I set up. You are really courting death!"
Huang Long Zhenren sneered and said, his voice full of disdain and ridicule.
Su Daji, Hu Ximei and Wang Zijin were startled by the sudden voice.
They didn't expect that there was a master hidden in Xibohou Mansion.
The three of them looked at each other, with a hint of surprise and uneasiness in their eyes.
As the leader of the three, 'Su Daji' quickly calmed her mind.
She took a deep breath and bowed to Master Huanglong with a graceful and elegant posture.
She said softly, "I wonder who the leader is? My two sisters and I came here with no ill intentions."
"It is only because we entered this place by mistake that we ran into this formation. I beg you to show mercy and let the three of us go."
Her voice was clear and pleasant, like a mountain spring, with a hint of sincerity and request.
However, Master Huanglong remained unmoved. He stared at Su Daji coldly, with a hint of contempt in his eyes.
"How can we trust the words of a demon?"
Huang Long Zhenren shouted coldly, "The three of you have demonic energy all over you. It's obvious that you came here to do something bad."
"Besides, this is not your first time here. How can I let you go so easily?"
Su Daji's heart tightened when she heard this, she knew she had to be careful at this moment.
She took a deep breath, calmed her inner turmoil, and bowed to Master Huanglong again.
Su Daji spoke softly, her voice flowing like a spring, with a hint of sincerity and awe:
"Master, please understand. Although we are demons, we have already cultivated our human nature and understand the way of good and evil in the world."
She paused, raised her head slightly, looked at Master Huanglong firmly, and continued:
"Even though we have passed by this place many times, we were just curious about the grandeur and mystery of this mansion. It was really unintentional. Please believe us, Taoist Priest, we really have no intention of harming you."
"Master, please let us go, considering how difficult it is for us to practice."
Hu Ximei and Wang Zijin also quickly echoed:
"Yes, Taoist priest. We really just came here by mistake and have no ill intentions. Please show some mercy and let us go."
Zhenren Huanglong looked at the three demons in front of him with a sharp gaze. Although their words were sincere, his vigilance did not decrease in the slightest.
He snorted coldly and shouted:
"Shut up! You are surrounded by evil spirits, how dare you speak nonsense? I have no intention of harming anyone."
Huang Long Zhenren raised his finger slightly and pointed at the three demons, speaking with unquestionable majesty:
"You all, just wait here. The next morning, I will meet with the Marquis of Xibo and explain this matter to him. As for how to deal with you, it will be up to him to decide."
After saying this, Master Huanglong left the place.
Su Daji, Hu Ximei and Wang Zijin looked at each other, feeling uneasy.
They knew that their fate at this moment was in the hands of Huanglong Zhenren and Xibohou Jichang.
Hu Ximei's face turned slightly pale, and her eyes were full of anxiety.
She clenched her hands tightly, her voice trembling as she looked at Su Daji:
"Sister, what should we do? Are we just going to surrender and let them do whatever they want?"
'Su Daji' sighed softly, with a hint of complicated emotions flashing in her eyes.
She frowned slightly and sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness and determination in her voice:
"Xi Mei, don't panic. I will immediately try to ask for help from Master Shen. If he knows our situation, he will definitely come to rescue us."
When Hu Ximei heard this, a glimmer of hope flashed in her eyes, but then it dimmed again.
She looked at Su Daji anxiously, her voice trembling slightly:
"Sister, but we are now suppressed by this formation and our spiritual power cannot be circulated. How can we convey the message to Master Shen?"
Su Daji took a deep breath and looked determined:
"I have my own way. Even if we are in the formation, I can still find a way to pass the message."
However, Wang Zijin at the side shook his head and reminded softly:
"Sister, we are indeed suppressed by the formation, and our spiritual power cannot function. Even if you have a way to pass on the message, we cannot be sure where Taoist Master Shen is at the moment."
"If he is thousands of miles away, even if he receives the news, he won't be able to rush to rescue us in the first place."
When Su Daji heard Wang Zijin's reminder, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. She had indeed never considered the issues of distance and time.
This made her feel an invisible pressure in an instant, but she was not discouraged.
She was silent for a moment, her eyes became deep:
"You are right, Zijin. But even so, we cannot just sit there and wait for death."
"As long as there is still a glimmer of hope, we must try our best." There was an unyielding determination in her tone.
Su Daji paused, her eyes moving between Hu Ximei and Wang Zijin, and continued:
"Ximei, Zijin, there is still some time until the next morning. We need to calm down and try to find a way to break the formation."
When Hu Ximei heard this, her originally anxious expression eased a little.
She clenched her fists tightly, with a determined gleam in her eyes:
"Sister, you are right. We can't give up. We will definitely find a way."
Wang Zijin also nodded in agreement. Although there was still a trace of worry on her face, there was a determination in her eyes.
The three of them smiled at each other; the fear and anxiety in their hearts seemed to be slightly relieved at this moment.
……
The next morning, Huanglong Zhenren informed Xibohou Jichang of what happened last night.
Ji Chang heard this and a trace of shock flashed in his eyes. Then, he brought Jiang Ziya, Ji Fa and others to the main courtyard.
At this time, the three demons from Xuanyuan Tomb were sitting together, studying how to break the formation all night.
However, since their cultivation level was far inferior to that of Master Huanglong, even if they tried their best, they still could not find a solution.
The faces of 'Su Daji' and the other two were filled with fatigue and frustration, and their eyes revealed deep helplessness.
When Ji Chang and others stepped into the main courtyard, the three demons immediately noticed their arrival.
They all stood up, their originally scattered gazes immediately focused, and a hint of vigilance flashed across their faces.
Ji Chang walked forward and glanced at the three monsters one by one.
The charm of 'Su Daji', the agility of Hu Ximei, and the elegance of Wang Zijin all came into his sight, causing him to be slightly startled, with a hint of amazement flashing in his eyes.
However, Ji Chang quickly regained his composure and asked in a deep voice:
"I want to ask you, why did you sneak into the mansion and cause chaos in the middle of the night? What do you want to do?"
The three demons in Xuanyuan Tomb looked at each other when they heard this. They exchanged glances but did not answer.
Ji Chang’s patience was limited. He waited for a moment, but when he saw that the three demons still did not answer, he couldn’t help but frown.
He turned to look at Master Huanglong and said respectfully:
"Master, since these three demons are unwilling to tell the truth, there must be something fishy going on. Please use your magical powers to find out their background and purpose."
Upon hearing this, Master Huang Long pondered for a moment, and his sharp eyes swept over the three monsters in Xuanyuan Tomb. His voice was calm and firm:
"My Lord, in my opinion, although these three little demons have some skills, their cultivation is limited after all. How much trouble can they cause?"
He shook his head slightly, seemingly dismissing the threat posed by the three monsters.
"However, since they sneaked into the Marquis' Mansion late at night, their purpose must be impure. It is better to eliminate them directly to prevent future troubles."
Zhenren Huanglong changed the subject, and his tone revealed a hint of coldness.
As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere around him instantly became tense.
Ji Chang frowned, he knew very well that Master Huanglong was a man of high cultivation level, so what he said must have a reason.
But it seems too cruel to get rid of these three monsters directly. Besides, the truth about what these three monsters are planning has not been found out yet.
Just as Ji Chang was hesitating, Ji Fa came forward, bowed to Ji Chang, and said bluntly:
"Father, I think what the Immortal said makes sense. Monsters are monsters after all, and they will always have the intention to harm others if they are kept alive. It is better to get rid of them as soon as possible!"
As soon as Ji Fa finished speaking, the air seemed to freeze for a moment, and Su Daji and the other two looked shocked.
They didn't expect Jifa to have such an intention and they really underestimated him.
Especially "Su Daji", she thought Ji Fa was a kind person, but she didn't expect him to be so cruel and ruthless.
Fortunately, she did not show her appearance as Su Daji. Because this operation was in Xibohou Mansion, she used the body of the nine-tailed fox.
Otherwise, Su Daji would feel very uncomfortable.
