Chen Changsheng's cold gaze frightened many cultivators.
As the light reflected from the bronze mirror shone, more than a dozen cultivators in the crowd suddenly used their escape techniques and fled towards the outside of the City Lord's mansion.
Without Chen Changsheng needing to say more, Yuan Rao immediately raised her slender hand.
Boom!
The terrifying pressure of true energy pressed down like the sky, and the cultivators in the midst of their escape simultaneously crashed into the ground. Those in the Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment stages were directly blasted into a bloody mist by this vast true energy.
The Golden Core stage cultivators reacted faster and summoned defensive magic tools, but they were still slapped into serious injuries with a single palm strike, and even their magic tools were shattered into pieces!
Below the Nascent Soul stage, all are ants!
Yuan Rao's repeated actions demonstrated her unparalleled Daoist foundation, causing the surrounding people's hearts to tremble slightly.
"City Lord Yuan! Their identities have not yet been verified, so why did you take action directly?" a Nascent Soul Sect Leader shouted anxiously.
Before Yuan Rao could speak, Chen Changsheng said first, "No need to investigate. I saw it before I entered the City Lord's mansion. These people are all demons and evil cultivators. City Lord Yuan did not wrongly kill a single person."
"You say so?"
Someone immediately retorted.
"Are you questioning my Taiping Demon Suppression Division? Or are you questioning whether Taiping City is deliberately targeting everyone?"
Chen Changsheng's cold gaze swept over them.
His powerful and imposing aura caused the expressions of the crowd to change slightly.
Several people hesitated, but when they saw Yuan Rao behind Chen Changsheng with a smile on her face, they all closed their mouths.
Seeing the gloomy faces of a group of cultivators, Chen Changsheng spoke again: "My Taiping City is a celestial city built by the ancient immortal Dao lineage. It exists to cleanse the world of demons and evil cultivators, to restore peace to the cultivation world. It would not stoop to abusing its authority to falsely accuse you for a little grievance."
"From now on, if anyone dares to question Taiping City again, they will be provoking the majesty of the ancient immortal Dao lineage, and they will be investigated to the end!"
Taiping City and the ancient immortal Dao lineage must be able to deter people. When faced with questioning, they must counterattack strongly in order to gain a firm foothold in the cultivation world.
A celestial alliance and city without prestige is nothing but a flash in the pan, and anyone will want to step forward and trample on it to elevate themselves.
"What Changsheng says represents the attitude of my ancient immortal Dao lineage and Taiping City. I hope you will all remember it in your hearts and tell the people around you."
Yuan Rao added in a timely manner: "The previous grievances have been completely settled today. In the future, do not provoke the ancient immortal Dao lineage again."
Qian Yan from Dragon Bone Fort was the most discerning, immediately stepping forward and respectfully cupping his fists, saying: "We will remember what City Lord Yuan and Director Chen said, and we will never speculate recklessly in the future."
When the other cultivators heard this, they hurriedly expressed their attitudes.
"The ancient immortal Dao lineage has pioneered righteous factions in the world. Our questioning was indeed abrupt and rude."
"I didn't expect that there would be so many black sheep in our righteous sect. Thanks to the Demon Suppression Division's assistance, they eliminated the tumors for my sect!"
Ji Chudao, after the Daoist spell was lifted, climbed up from the ground and said with an embarrassed expression: "I'm sorry, I was rude just now. Please forgive me, City Lord Yuan."
They couldn't win in a fight, and they couldn't stand on moral high ground.
Yuan Rao not taking his life was already the greatest forgiveness. If he still didn't know what was good for him and wanted to avenge the dead evil cultivator disciples, then the Volcanic Society could choose a new president after today.
Chen Changsheng glanced around, manipulated the bronze mirror to shine, and after ensuring that all the demons and evil cultivators were eliminated, he turned and left.
The battle of the Transformation Gods outside entered its final stage, and the roar of Daoist spells never stopped for a moment. The two hundred-foot-tall Dharma Idols collapsed and shattered in the fierce battle.
Du Changping was old after all, and his true energy was no longer as strong as it was in his prime.
In addition, Yu Fu also possessed ancient inheritance, and it was an evil magic Daoist spell stronger than the righteous path. Although both were in the early stage of Transformation God, he erupted with cultivation comparable to the middle stage of Transformation God.
"Hahahaha! Du Changping, it seems you are old after all!"
"Why didn't you just hide and retire? Why did you have to join the ancient immortal Dao lineage? What's the difference between this and courting death?"
Yu Fu laughed loudly and cast a heaven-reaching Daoist spell.
In an instant, mountains and rivers collapsed, rivers evaporated, and the demonic magic Daoist spell formed a blood-colored anomaly covering the sky and the earth, as if pulling the entire Taiping City into a small world.
Du Changping coughed lightly and tore apart the blood-red scene in front of him with the large saber in his hand, and a stream of light rippled around him to resist the erosion of the anomaly.
"We cultivators cultivate, first, for longevity, second, for carefree happiness, and third, to create a prosperous world for future generations!"
"I cannot achieve the first two, so I can only choose to contribute to future generations. I will do everything in my power to kill all the demons and evil cultivators in the world."
"As long as I am still here, I will block all disasters for Taiping City!"
Boom!
A wisp of red flame burned from Du Changping's body, and the Dharma Idol behind him expanded to nearly a thousand feet in size, tearing the sky with a single slash with the might of the heavens!
He ignited the origin of his life, returning to his peak strength in a short period of time.
His original intention of sitting in Taiping City was to do his best to protect the safety of Taiping City in his lifetime. He did what he said!
Even if it meant burning the origin of his life and reducing his lifespan, he would not hesitate!
"Well done, this is more like it."
Yu Fu laughed loudly, and his blood-colored demonic magic erupted wantonly. He directly urged the origin of life in his clone, also erupting with his strongest posture.
At the moment when the strongest Daoist spells of the two collided, everyone in Taiping City fell into a brief tinnitus, and their naked eyes were painfully illuminated by the dazzling Daoist light, and the range of their divine consciousness was greatly reduced.
Even the city-protecting formation carefully arranged by Chen Changsheng shattered into a sky full of rune ripples at the moment of the Daoist spells colliding.
The terrifying waves of true energy swept through like a hurricane, causing the city's buildings to sway.
The cultivators immediately cast Daoist spells to resist the impact, and the city guards lined up in formation to block the sweeping gale for the people as much as possible.
The disciples of the Dao Treasure Pavilion had already been stationed at various formation points under Chen Changsheng's arrangement. At the moment when the city-protecting formation shattered, they immediately raised a new defensive formation.
The raging gale only blew in the city for a moment before being smoothed out by the shrouded formation.
When the buzzing in their ears dissipated and the dazzling Daoist light gradually disappeared, the sky had returned to tranquility.
The sky was blue for thousands of miles, without a trace of white clouds.
The bright sunshine shone on the streets and alleys of Taiping City, shining like a layer of gold foil.
"Is it over?"
The representatives of the various sects in the City Lord's mansion looked around, searching for the figures of the two Transformation God powerhouses in shock.
However, Yu Fu was not seen in the sky, nor did Du Changping appear.
Did they perish together?
At this time, Yuan Rao said: "It's not over yet, but our Taiping City has won. Senior Du is injured and in seclusion. Please help my Taiping City to cleanse all the demonic and evil cultivation forces outside the city!"
Whether this was true or false, the cultivators present could not judge.
Not giving them a chance to ask, Yuan Rao took the lead in flying out of the city, and her loud voice spread throughout the city.
The cultivators of Taiping City all soared into the sky with a murderous aura, like countless sharp arrows flying out.
Dense! Scattered all over!
And the demonic and evil cultivation forces stationed outside Taiping City had not yet recovered from the battle of the Transformation Gods when they saw the colorful Daoist light, like a torrential rain sweeping down.
