The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?! Chapter 268 Yan Xiaoru Sends a Message

Under the gloomy sky, the rain was relentless.

The cold rain incessantly pattered against the land. Find more to read on .Côm

With the arrival of the rainy season, water levels in the rivers of Tianjiao City rose, and the air beca increasingly humid.

In such torrential rain, the bloodstains from the skirmishes in the streets would soon be washed away.

But these incidents were of no concern to the ordinary people of the city.

Despite constant covert skirmishes, on the surface, Tianjiao City thrived and bustled.

As the situation stabilized, the Blood Lotus Sect began to protect rchant trade, and Tianjiao City regained its forr comrcial prosperity.

Ships loaded with goods sailed into the city’s ports, caravans laden with rchandise arrived from distant lands.

Most commoners, as long as they could continue their business, would return to Tianjiao City and resu their trading activities.

The conflicts within the Cultivation World were of no concern to them.

In such a bustling comrcial city, the Sect Hierarch Fang Yingtian often preached in the streets and led the citizens in prayer.

They cleared houses in the center of Tianjiao City to build a vast square.

Countless followers of the Blood Lotus Sect would co to the square to pray daily, and whenever the sky cleared, the Sect Hierarch himself would co forth to expound the teachings and spread the faith.

The Sect Hierarch perford miracles on the square, not only resurrecting the dead but also healing diseases, expelling evil spirits, and even enlightening his followers... These miracles greatly enhanced Fang Yingtian’s prestige, and more and more people chose to join the Blood Lotus Sect.

Tianjiao City had now completely fallen into the hands of the Blood Lotus Sect.

Countless citizens in the city subscribed to the sect’s teachings and joined the Blood Lotus Sect.

And under the city’s fervent religious atmosphere, Shen Yan’s investigation into the assailants grew more severe.

Skirmishes unfolded one after another amidst the veil of rain.

Those cold, stern confrontations were at odds with the fanatical mood of the city.

Shen Yan had already captured three banner leaders, securing evidence of their wrongdoing.

But this was only the beginning.

The three banner leaders belonged to Liehai Hall, Lotus Heart Hall, and Jade Wave Hall, respectively.

Two sub-branches and one main hall were implicated, causing Xie Shanhai, Liu Churen, and Liu Hucheng, the leaders respectively, to be in uproar over the incident.

On the day Shen Yan imprisoned the third banner leader, the three leaders even burst into Shen Yan’s City Lord’s Mansion, bellowing for the release of their n.

But Shen Yan stood firm, and both sides parted on bad terms.

As the torrential rain once again swept through Tianjiao City, Shen Yan stood under the eaves of the City Lord’s Mansion, quietly watching the rain outside, her expression one of wistful contemplation, lost in thought.

At that mont, hurried footsteps approached.

Soone, in a state of panic and alarm, brought dreadful news.

"It’s terrible, Miss, Hall Master Ruan i has been attacked and injured!"

On hearing this news, Shen Yan was stunned, her face showing a look of astonishnt.

In the pitch-black prison, where Li Muyang had successfully defeated the Vermilion Bird phantom and pulled down the Vermilion Bird flag, he was now discussing the attack patterns of the White Tiger of the West with Shen Miao.

The White Tiger, conjured by the western corner of the Four Symbols Formation, was even more powerful than the previous two divine beasts.

As the Four Symbols Formation continued to be deciphered, the remnants beca more terrifying and increasingly difficult to break.

Just then, Shen Miao suddenly startled and relayed the news her sister heard in the real world to Li Muyang.

After listening, Li Muyang fell silent.

"...So it was Ruan i who was attacked?"

He had thought those cowards would attack Shen Yan first.

Yet he did not expect them to make a move on Ruan i beforehand.

They did not kill Ruan i, but instead, inflicted her with so sort of severe poison.

This intense poison plunged Ruan i into an oblivious vegetative state; though not dead, the tifra for detoxifying her is uncertain.

And considering Ruan i’s profound cultivation level, if she were to die once, at least one-third of her lifespan would be depleted…

Li Muyang, listening to the news from the outside world, shook his head.

"Mad, completely mad," he said.

Ruan i was Shen Yan’s right-hand woman, her strongest support in investigating this case, the helmsman of the Enforcent Hall, and also the embodint of Sect Hierarch Fang Yingtian’s authority.

Attacking Ruan i, in so respects, was more severe than attacking Shen Yan.

After all, Shen Yan is rely a mortal, who could be resurrected with little cost and could die many tis over.

But Ruan i is precious high-level combat power for the sect!

"It seems I’ve underestimated the extent of these rats’ madness," Li Muyang sighed.

Attacking Ruan i was no different than publicly slapping Fang Yingtian in the face.

If Fang Yingtian swallows this affront, he can forget about consolidating power ever again.

But if he doesn’t, he would have to go to war with everyone in the sect who defies him…

"Tsk… it’s about to beco a slaughterhouse."

That was Li Muyang’s judgnt.

Shen Miao was utterly confused, "What do you an by heads will roll?"

Sighing, Li Muyang explained the situation to the girl, "With the Sect Hierarch’s tactics and assertiveness, he’s now firmly at odds with the troublemakers."

"Those bastards dared to attack Ruan i and even succeeded… Would they dare to attack the Sect Hierarch in the future?"

Ruan i was not an easy target, yet she was still successfully ambushed.

Fang Yingtian could no longer ignore the matter, no matter what.

Indeed, after the news of Ruan i’s ambush spread, Fang Yingtian was enraged.

Fang Yingtian, who had been acting as a hands-off manager and had delegated the task of pursuing the mastermind behind the scenes to Shen Yan, focusing only on preaching within the city, personally ordered martial law in the city and sent his trusted followers to investigate the matter thoroughly.

Although no one had fully turned against each other yet, not even the banner leaders had been deployed.

Yet in the following days, the killing and fighting in the city continued unabated, with more and more sect mbers dying tragically.

Within the crucible of the commotion, the prison where Li Muyang was held welcod an unexpected visitor.

—Cheng Feiyang, whom he had not seen for a long ti.

Cheng Feiyang, fully disguised as another person’s face, was now a prison guard.

Hunching his back and appearing to be aged, he was a martial artist who had experienced the vicissitudes of life.

But after the routine delivery of the daily al, the old prison guard spoke in a low voice.

"Muyang, Elder Yan has sent to deliver a ssage to you…"

Li Muyang, hearing this familiar voice, was astonished.

After inquiring, he learned that Yan Xiaoru had planted Cheng Feiyang in the prison the very day he was incarcerated. It was only because Li Muyang was later out of mortal danger that Cheng Feiyang continued to stay undercover without revealing his identity.

Now, however, amidst the city’s fierce killings and struggles, Cheng Feiyang finally revealed his identity after many days of hiding.

"Elder Yan said that with the intense struggles in the city, the sect’s high-level mbers slaughtering each other, you are the source of this unrest."

"In the chaos, it’s very possible that soone will vent their anger on you and attempt to end your life in the confusion of the prison…"

Cheng Feiyang whispered, "Considering your safety, tomorrow at midnight, soone disguised as a sect disciple will co to break into the prison. At that ti, do not resist and follow them out."
