On the other side, after leaving Leizhou City, Ye Qing and his group were quite relaxed on the way since they were not in a hurry.
In fact, even within the territory of the human race, it was impossible for all of them to be safe.
Although the number of demons had been greatly reduced, in this environment where the strong preyed on the weak, there was naturally no shortage of villains and evil cultivators among the humans.
There were also many people who relied on their cultivation to occupy the mountains and do evil.
For example, in the wilderness, deep in the mountains and forests far away from the city, there were frequent killings and robberies.
However, what made Ye Qing somewhat regretful was that they had been on the road for almost three days, but they had not encountered such a thing once.
It couldn't be helped. The main reason was that Ye Qing's limelight had been a little too much during this period of time.
The name of the Carefree Divine Sword was already resounding enough. In addition to his two recent appearances, whether it was defeating the Black Yao Inspection Department in Jinhua City alone or defeating the young master of the Wen family in Leizhou City, his fame would increase every time he appeared.
In addition, Ye Qing's journey was basically no different from being made public. Anyone who was observant would know that his destination was Divine Fire Manor.
Moreover, Ye Qing had taken the initiative to spread the news in Leizhou City that he would challenge the experts of various sects along the way to hone his Sword Heart.
Under such circumstances, the bandits and evil cultivators along the way did not even have time to dodge. How could there be any blind fools who would take the initiative to provoke them?
Therefore, the final result was that it had been three days since they left Leizhou City, but Ye Qing and the other three had gone smoothly along the way. Not only did they not see any bad people, but they also did not see any ordinary demons.
They had originally agreed to be chivalrous and kill demons along the way, but in the end, it was as if they were on a leisure trip, leisurely and relaxed.
As for the map that he had gotten from Wen Ting, Ye Qing felt that it was not very meaningful after he had read it twice.
The red dots marked on the map might seem small, but they were all large areas in reality. Even if he knew that the Black Light Inspection Department might set up an ambush here, Ye Qing would not be able to accurately know where they would set up an ambush.
In other words, with Ye Qing's actions of not hiding his itinerary, even if he had this map, it would not have much of an impact. The other party was also a living person, and the ambush plan would definitely change according to the local conditions. Therefore, the purpose of looking at the map was only to prepare himself mentally.
After all, he couldn't hide from the enemy he was supposed to face.
Besides, he had no intention of hiding at all.
Just like that, with this kind of calm mentality, Ye Qing and the others arrived at the first place marked with a red dot on the map after three days of travel.
Jade Sun City.
It was a small city.
According to the map given by Wen Ting, this city was most likely the ambush site of the Black Light Inspection Department.
However, when Ye Qing and the others entered the city, they did not see the familiar arrest warrant at all. Even the Daoist priest guarding the city gate did not show any hostility. It was as if he did not know the four of them at all and simply let them enter the city.
Although Ye Qing was a little surprised by this, he did not pay too much attention to it and entered the city openly.
That night, the four of them checked into the inn.
However, what Ye Qing did not know was that in a manor in the city, there were a few people secretly plotting at the moment.
In the bright hall stood five Taoist priests in black robes.
They were the people from the Black Sun Inspection Department who had been ordered to deal with Ye Qing.
If one looked closely, one would notice that one of them was dressed in purple and black robes, while the other four were dressed in red and black robes. They wore black iron masks on their heads, and there was a small white sword embroidered on their sleeves. They also carried a sheathed sword on their backs.
These five people were Xiao Wanchang, the supervisor, and the four fifth level Obsidian Swordsmen.
"How's the investigation going? Have you confirmed Ye Qing's location?"
One of the Black Light Swordsmen asked. His voice sounded a little strange under the mask.
Although Xiao Wanchang was the person in charge of this operation, he didn't dare to be disrespectful to these four people whose cultivation was far higher than his.
"Reporting to my lord, we've already investigated clearly. Ye Qing and the others are currently staying at the Yuelai Inn. It seems that they haven't discovered our traces.”
Upon hearing this, the other Obsidian Swordsman instantly stood up.
"Then what are we waiting for? If he rushed over and killed him, the mission would be completed.”
Hearing this, Xiao Wanchang immediately tried to dissuade him.
" No, no, no. You must calm down, Your Excellency. I can understand your feelings, but according to the current information, Ye Qing has just defeated the young master of the Wen family, Wen Ting, in Leizhou City. The strength he displayed is infinitely close to the Middle Class of the Five States. In addition, there is a girl with unknown strength beside him.
If we act rashly without waiting for help, it's very likely that we'll alert the enemy and waste our previous efforts.”
His words made the other four frown.
"If it's really like what you said, Ye Qing's strength is infinitely close to the middle level of the Five States. Although the four of us can suppress him by joining forces, we really can't stop him if he wants to escape.”
one of the swordsmen asked.
"In that case, as far as I know, Lord Zhou Lin only sent four of my fifth realm sword envoys for this operation. Those below the fifth realm are almost useless.”
Xiao Wanchang stroked his beard and smiled smugly.
"Four sword envoys, please rest assured. The helper I invited this time is very powerful. If he joins us, a mere Ye Qing will definitely be captured!”
At this point, his face suddenly lit up as he looked outside the door.
"He's here."
Hearing this, the four Obsidian Swordsmen instantly looked outside the door.
Then, they saw a tall man wearing a yellow and white Daoist robe and a red cloak walk into the room.
Seeing this person's appearance, the four Obsidian Swordsmen instantly frowned, and one of them subconsciously blurted out.
"It's you! Golden Phoenix!"
"Why are you here?"
