Chapter 223 Demons Rampage the Capital
"It seems that Grandpa has dragged that demonic master into the Lesser Thousand Worlds," Lin Fei thought to himself upon seeing this scene.
A powerful being at the Celestial Realm is so strong that with a mere gesture, anything within a radius of hundreds of miles can be destroyed.
Therefore, powerful beings at the Celestial Realm generally do not fight in the real world. Instead, they enter a smaller world to have their final battle, in order to avoid the aftershocks of their fight causing too much damage to the real world.
Su Lie naturally couldn't stand by and watch the entire capital of Southern Tang turn into ruins, so he pulled the Demon Master Leng Feng into the Lesser Thousand Worlds for a life-or-death battle.
As for the Lesser Thousand Worlds, apart from powerful beings at the Celestial Realm who have created their own independent worlds, no one else can enter them. Therefore, outsiders have no way to interfere in the battle between the Divine Might Marquis and the Demon Master.
After Su Lie and the Demon Master entered the Lesser Thousand Worlds for their final battle, all that remained on the now-ruins Xuanwu Street were Lin Fei and Li Longqian's men.
Like Lin Fei, Li Longqian's group of subordinates, unless their cultivation was too weak to react in time, had all taken cover and were not affected by the aftershocks of the clash between the Divine Might Marquis and the Demon Master's spiritual power.
At this moment, Marquis Shenwei and the Demon Master entered the Lesser Thousand Worlds, and these people also emerged from the ruins one after another—and their target was Lin Fei.
Besides the three men in black from before, several more men in black arrived, seemingly having come with the Demon Master.
They focused all their attention on Lin Fei, surrounding him completely and giving him no chance to escape.
Seeing this, Lin Fei's heart skipped a beat: "Oh no, I'm afraid I'm really going to die here today!"
He could barely protect himself when dealing with those three people before, but now that there are a few more, Lin Fei probably won't even be able to protect himself.
Just as several men in black surrounded Lin Fei, a loud shout rang out: "Heretical sects, this is the capital, a place where you dare to run wild!"
As soon as he finished speaking, many figures descended from the sky and landed around him. The men in black who had surrounded Lin Fei were now surrounded by these newcomers.
Lin Fei was also very familiar with the clothes worn by the people who came later—they were none other than the uniforms of the head constables of Tianmen Prefecture.
And the one leading the group was none other than Su Wuming, the "Blue-Eyed Catcher" and the Admiral of Tianmen South Prefecture!
Upon seeing Su Wuming arrive with a group of constables from Tianmen Prefecture, Li Longqian shouted, "Su Wuming, this is an internal matter of our royal family and has nothing to do with your Tianmen Prefecture. I advise you not to interfere!"
It's laughable that this guy is completely blinded by greed. Although he sensed something was wrong, he still gritted his teeth and wanted to get rid of Lin Fei first—this guy thought these men in black were there to help him fight for the throne!
Su Wuming frowned, almost bursting into a curse. He said in a deep voice, "Second Prince, this is a dangerous place. You'd better leave quickly. I recognize you, but the sword at my waist doesn't!"
Li Longqian was both shocked and furious. He pointed at Su Wuming and shouted, "Su Wuming, how dare you! Do you want to rebel?"
Su Wuming, too lazy to pay attention to this useless spendthrift, directly ordered the head constable of Tianmen Prefecture: "Seize these heretical sorcerers for this prefecture. Anyone who obstructs them, regardless of who they are, shall be considered an accomplice!"
Su Wuming's words were clearly directed at Li Longqian. If Li Longqian dared to obstruct them, he would be considered an accomplice. Although he wouldn't be killed on the spot, he would inevitably be arrested by the head constables of Tianmen Prefecture.
……
Meanwhile, the commotion on Xuanwu Street also alarmed many powerful figures both inside and outside the capital.
Both civil and military officials were rushing towards Xuanwu Street.
In an instant, dozens of figures landed around the area with a "whoosh," many of them looking puzzled and having no idea what had happened.
"Admiral Su, what exactly happened? How did Xuanwu Street become like this?" Prime Minister Wang You asked first, pointing the finger directly at Su Wuming.
With Xuanwu Street in such a state, whatever happened, he didn't want to involve Li Longqian. So he directly turned his attention to Su Wuming—his meaning was clear: whatever happened, the Tianmen Prefecture should take the blame.
"At this point, you're still thinking about vying for power and profit?" Su Wuming, of course, understood Wang You's scheme, and sneered inwardly. He replied coldly, "What happened? Your Excellency should ask the Second Prince! My immediate priority is to arrest these heretical and wicked people!"
"As expected, it's related to the Second Prince!" Wang You was also filled with disappointment. Li Longqian hadn't consulted him at all about bringing men to intercept Lin Fei on Xuanwu Street. If he had known beforehand, he would never have let Li Longqian do such a foolish thing at this time.
Upon hearing that those men in black were actually sorcerers from the Eight Evil Paths, Prime Minister Wang You's heart sank even further. At this juncture, Li Longqian's open attempt to ambush Lin Fei was already foolish. If he were to become entangled with these sorcerers, then the position of Crown Prince would truly be out of his reach.
The other civil and military officials, upon hearing that these men in black were evil sorcerers, immediately turned their anger towards them as well. At this moment, these princes and high-ranking officials surrounded the men in black, leaving them with no way out.
Just then, a long laugh rang out from afar: "Detective Su, you think you're no match for the Eight Paths' people?"
As soon as the sound faded, a figure descended from the sky, stepping on a lotus flower, and landed in the distance. This person was dressed in a Buddhist robe, with a fat head and large ears, looking like a mountain of flesh.
"Amitabha!" He smiled, his eyes narrowing into slits, and his fat jiggled wildly. "Detective Su, it's been a long time. Do you still remember this humble monk?"
Su Wuming narrowed his eyes, a sharp killing intent flashing within them: "The Joyful Buddha? Even you, a fiend from the Joyful Union Sect, have come to the capital!"
This person is the leader of the Joyful Union Sect among the Eight Evil Paths, known as the "Joyful Buddha." He is a true giant at the third level of the Dharma Aspect Realm.
"It's not just this humble monk who's here." The Joyful Buddha laughed, his fat jiggling all over. "Fellow Daoists, Constable Su wants to arrest members of my Eight Paths. Why don't you show yourselves?"
