The City Lord immediately ordered, “Men, take down this group of people!”

The others wanted to resist, but their arms could not go against their thighs. Moreover, with their little strength, the guards of the City Lord’s estates and the masters of several big families and forces were all around them. Crushing them was as easy as crushing a mosquito.
There was a huge difference in strength. Without even fighting, they would already know that they had suffered a crushing defeat. They might even be labeled as traitors by the City Lord for colluding with the demons. It would be better to just surrender.

At this moment, Bai Xi walked out. Among them, Bai Xi was the strongest and had the highest status. After all, he was the last disciple of the principal of one of the four great academies.

The people who were originally in a mess looked at him as if they were looking at the backbone of their hearts.

The City Lord sized up Bai Xi. Compared to the others who were flustered, at a loss, and even scared like a fly that had no direction and could only buzz around, Bai Xi appeared to be too calm.

“City Lord, can I say a few words?”

His ice cold eyes did not have any human emotions. It was as if even when Mount Tai collapsed in front of him, his expression would not change. His expression was cold, and no one could read his thoughts.

The spiritual power fluctuations that came from Bai Xi’s body were not very strong. Of course, this was only for the City Lord. However, among his peers, he could be said to be one of the best.

Moreover, according to his temperament, his future achievements would only be high. If he could grow up, he would definitely be a masterof a region. The City Lord’s eyes were filled with interest as he said, “Go ahead.”

“We have interacted with Lin Bai day and night. We can ensure that during that period of time, Lin Bai is normal and has not been possessed by an evil demon.”

Everyone’s hearts could not help but hang in their throats. At this point in time, Bai Xi was actually still speaking up for Lin Bai. He was afraid that they would not be implicated as accomplices and would be captured together as the puppets of the evil demons.
Just as they were scratching their ears and cheeks anxiously, Bai Xi’s tone changed. “But later on, Lin Bai went to the Alchemist Association, and from there he went to the City Lord’s residence. We did not have any interactions during this.”

“Especially during that period of time in the City Lord’s Estate, who doesn’t know that the City Lord’s Estate is heavily guarded? Not to mention passing on information, not even a fly can fly out. We completely lost contact with Lin Bai. We only know that when he was taken away, he said that he was
refining pills for the City Lord. We have no idea what exactly he was doing inside.”

After hearing the rest of his words, everyone’s hearts finally relaxed. They knew that Bai Xi had not lost his mind. He wanted to remove all the connections between them from this matter.

After all, there were witnesses and evidence, and the whole city was searching for Lin Bai. There was no doubt that he was an evil demon. If he continued to speak up for Lin Bai, it would only make their situation worse, and they would be regarded as accomplices. When that time came, things would not
be good.

“Although senior brother Bai and senior brother Lin usually have a good relationship, senior brother Bai still knows what is right and wrong.”
Bai Xi’s words were reasonable and well-grounded. It was so watertight that no one could find anything wrong with it. The City Lord slowly said, “So you’re saying that this matter has nothing to do with you?”

Bai Xi definitely nodded.

However, how could the City Lord let them off so easily? Since Lin Bai couldn’t be found, then he could also find trouble with his senior and junior brothers. He could just treat it as collecting some interest in advance.

After all, it was Lin Bai who had ruined the plan that he had meticulously planned for a hundred years. The hundred years of hard work and effort had been destroyed just like that. He needed to go into hibernation again and wait for the next opportunity.

However, he had already alerted the enemy this time. Presumably, the big families and forces in the capital would be even more vigilant and pay attention to the situation at the seal at all times. He didn’t know how long he would have to wait before he could see the light of day again.
At the thought of this, he could not help but feel this anger rise up in his heart. If Lin Bai was in front of him, he would definitely cut him into pieces to vent the hatred in his heart.

Bai Xi noticed that a red light flashed in the City Lord’s eyes before it quickly retuned to normal. It was as if he had just been hallucinating.

As he stared closely, the City Lord seemed to have sensed something. He suddenly turned his gaze towards Bai Xi. His deep pupils were like unfathomable vortexes. If he was not careful, he would be sucked into them. He was in danger of being torn to shreds.

He had only looked at them for a few seconds, but he already felt a little unwell. It was as if many negative emotions had appeared in his heart. It was so stifling that Bai Xi tried his best to suppress them and could not help but look away.

The feeling of frustration and anger that he had nowhere to vent slowly dissipated. The emotions that suddenly surged up made him seem a little different from himself. Bai Xi was puzzled, but he secretly kept an eye out.

This City Lord seemed a little strange. However, just a few casual glances from him could actually cause such a huge reaction.

One had to know that Bai Xi had a firm personality and was also a cultivator of the sword dao, so he would not be easily influenced by the outside world. However, just a few glances from him made his mind unstable, which was enough to prove that something was strange.

“Why are you looking at me like that?” The City Lord narrowed his eyes and examined Bai Xi. A light that made him uncomfortable appeared in his eyes once again, but that feeling was not as obvious as before.

Bai Xi frowned slightly. “I’ve never seen the City Lord before, so I can’t help but lose my composure. I hope the City Lord won’t take offense.”

The City Lord smiled coldly, “What you said just now was indeed quite reasonable.” His tone suddenly turned extremely cold. “However, these are all your one-sided words. How can I dispel the suspicions in my heart just because of your few words?”

After saying that, an invisible pressure pressed towards Bai Xi. If it was anyone else, it would be difficult for them to withstand it. However, although Bai Xi’s expression was unsightly, he was neither servile nor humble.

“The City Lord should have evidence when you capture someone right? You can’t attack us based on mere suspicions, right?”
