At the street corner.

Two people, a man and a woman, surrounded by several capital guards, were being questioned. However, the man kept groveling, lowering his head and not daring to speak. The woman was doing all the talking.

"I knew as soon as I saw him that he was not a good person! He even beat me! All my teeth were knocked out!"

"Then suddenly many people wearing prison uniforms appeared. They must be the people you are looking for!"

"Then the boy forced my husband to tell me which place in the capital was the most heavily defended. My husband was timid, so I told him directly!"

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect to cause such a big mess! Please forgive me, Empress, because I was knocked unconscious by him and didn't know anything. Otherwise, I would never let my husband talk too much!"

"It's all your fault!"

While complaining, the woman turned her head and glared at the man next to her with a reproachful look on her face.

After hearing the woman's answer, several Douying guards glanced at the man who nodded and bowed with cold expressions, a murderous look flashing in their eyes.

This couple was exactly the two people Li Wuji saw after he fought his way out of the palace!

At the same time, the woman's cunning eyes suddenly noticed Li Wuji walking straight past, revealing a trace of doubt.

She saw half of Li Wuji's face!

“Roasted chestnuts with sugar!”

"Roasted chestnuts with sugar!"

There was a small stall on the street, and the steaming sugar-roasted chestnuts had just come out of the pot. When I saw Li Wuji walking by, he smiled and shouted loudly.

Li Wuji stopped with a smile, pretended to choose, picked up a chestnut, flicked his fingers, and the chestnut flew towards the woman without anyone noticing!

A scream came out, and the woman who was looking at Li Wuji fell backward instantly, with a hole between her eyebrows that was bleeding outward!

"careful!"

Several capital guardsmen were shocked and hurriedly drew their weapons and looked around with nervous expressions.

However, at this time, Li Wuji had already walked to the other end of the street as if nothing had happened, as if he hadn't seen anything.

He knew that the woman's remarks just now were not only because she wanted to avenge herself for being beaten, but she also wanted to kill her husband with the help of Du Yingwei!

If it hadn't been for her husband, today's three yamen, including Duyingwei, might not have suffered this disaster.

But she did not say that her husband also mentioned the Princess's Mansion, otherwise she might not even be able to survive!

A smart and vicious woman, it seems that she really wants to marry another one!

Taking advantage of the darkness, Li Wuji and Di Long slowly disappeared at the end of the street without attracting anyone's attention.

From the moment he escaped from the hell alive, he had already decided that he would destroy everyone or anything in the world that disgusted him!

...

Yunxiao Palace.

In the main hall, Empress Xiaoyun stood on the high floor with an expressionless face, her eyes full of anger!

The commander of the Duying Guard, Lan Zhan, the commander of the Yanyu Guard, and Leng Yue, the governor of the Five Elements Division, all knelt in the middle of the hall, all with their heads lowered, not daring to look directly at the majesty of the empress.

"Just one Li Wuji! All three of your yamen have suffered heavy losses! And now you can't even find his shadow?!"

"What do you do for food?!"

The empress glared at the three of them and lowered her voice, her voice filled with murderous intent.

"Reporting to the Empress, I fought against Li Wuji. He should have obtained Pang Xun's true inheritance. His martial arts is unfathomable. Even if I took action myself, I still couldn't defeat him..."

"Shut up! If you lose, you lose. What excuse can you make! The one who disappoints me the most is you! I didn't expect that your Five Elements Division didn't even catch him, but instead let the Earth Element Division's envoy die under his sword!"

"A bunch of trash!"

Leng Yue, the governor of the Five Elements Division, was about to explain, but was interrupted by the empress's angry voice.

In the fifteen years since she ascended the throne as emperor, she has never lost her face like she did today!

No one dared to openly resist her!

But I didn't expect that I would be caught off guard the first time by the evildoer I had imprisoned for fifteen years!

If word of this gets out, everyone in the world will probably laugh at her!

"The humble position deserves to die! I hope the empress will give the humble position another chance!"

"I promise from my humble position that I will catch Li Wuji and bring him to see the Empress!"

Leng Yue clenched her fists, raised her hands in a salute, and asked for instructions in a frightened manner.

"There is no need to arrest him and bring him to see me. He can be punished directly on the spot! Don't give him a chance to breathe!"

"Remember, we must not let him escape the capital alive!"

The empress waved her hand, her voice cold.

At this moment, Ye Han, the commander of the Red Fish Guards, walked in from outside the hall with a solemn expression.

"Empress Qi, we just received news that Li Wuji and his men robbed the eldest princess's mansion and stole one hundred thousand taels of silver notes..."

Ye Han bowed and looked nervous.

"Are there any casualties?!"

When the empress heard this, she frowned again and asked sternly.

"Only one servant died."

Yehan answered hurriedly.

"Why are you still standing there?! Go quickly!"

"The deadline is three days. If I can't kill Li Wuji, I'll take it from you!"

The empress' face turned red and she waved her hand, gradually becoming hysterical.

Leng Yue and others hurriedly agreed and left in a hurry. Almost everyone's backs were soaked with cold sweat.

...

Min Lane in the east of the city.

In an abandoned house, Li Wuji sat at the table, looking at himself in the bronze mirror, and smiled with satisfaction.

Di Long on the side looked at Li Wuji who had completely changed his appearance, his eyes widened and he couldn't believe his eyes.

Just now, Li Wuji changed his appearance in front of Ti Long and returned to the way he was before his rebirth.

This face, even if you look around the world, I'm afraid you will never find another face that is the same.

But despite this, his thin appearance still makes him look like a frail and terminally ill person.

After all, after being imprisoned in heavenly prison for ten years and suffering so much, it would be impossible for him to still look like a healthy person.

After staying with the old man for ten years, the first skill he learned was superb martial arts, and the second skill was the world's best disguise technique.

Looking back now, the old man seems like a treasure. There seems to be no skill in the world that he can't master.

"Now I understand why the master chose to stay. Now, even our own people will never recognize your appearance."

Di Long cupped his hands and said sincerely.

"Don't call me Master. Since I have changed my appearance, from now on, just call me Young Master."

As Li Wuji spoke, he placed the bronze mirror on the table and destroyed all the disguise tools, leaving no trace.

"Yes, sir."

"I wonder what your master is going to do next? We should find a place to stay. I'm afraid the court won't give up its pursuit of us for a while."

Di Long nodded with concern on his face.

All the prisoners on death row on the 18th floor of the Heavenly Prison have not received any favor from Li Wuji in the past ten years. They have long been subdued by him and have decided to follow him to death.

Some of them were people who were imprisoned in the Heavenly Prison in the previous dynasty, some were because they offended the empress, some were from green forests, and some were from the military.

But now they only have one identity, and that is Li Wuji's dead soldiers. For Li Wuji, they can go up mountains of swords and seas of fire.

"The old man said that if you can escape from the Hell alive one day, the Nine Nether Realm can be used as a temporary hiding place. The people there are all lowly, and there are all three religions and nine streams. There is a mixture of fish and dragons, and the court's control is relatively loose."

"It's a place where you don't care about anything. Come with me to find out more about it."

Li Wuji stood up and walked straight out.

Di Long agreed and followed slowly.

After leaving Minxiang, Li Wuji took Di Long towards the Nine Nether Realm.

Jiuyou Realm, commonly known as the ghost city, is well known to everyone in the capital, and you can ask just anyone. It is filled with the most filthy and filthy people in the capital, and is home to a group of the most despicable people.

Once you enter the Nine Nether Realm, you will never be able to stand out.

...

Under night.

Leng Yue, the governor of the Five Elements Division, appeared on the street with a group of people, next to a stall selling roasted chestnuts.

Looking at the body of the woman lying on the stretcher, there was no expression on her face.

The woman's husband was kneeling on the ground, trembling and looking pale.

"Did you tell that person that the Five Elements Division is the most heavily defended place in the capital?"

Leng Yue looked at the man condescendingly, her voice cold.

"...yes..."

The man answered tremblingly, his teeth chattering.

He never dreamed that his casual remarks would cause such a big trouble.

However, just as he was answering tremblingly, Leng Yue's long sword was slowly unsheathed.
