of water in front of them. Naturally, Lu Xia Tian, who was striding forward, wouldn't be the first to charge into the fray. Facing these formidable demonic eagles, which numbered in the dozens and h...“You only have the strength surpassing ordinary celestial immortals because of the Seven Divine Swords. We are far from the main city, and it's unlikely you can defeat the two of us working together!” The woman in blue, after her initial embarrassment, saw that the other party had no intention of letting them go. She stood up directly, a powerful aura erupting from within her body, and a blue moon slowly rose behind her.

"If you could show mercy,

"

We can also coexist peacefully. As for what happened before, we'll keep our mouths shut. Otherwise, even if you kill us both, and secretly tarnish the City Lord's reputation, undermining his rule over Jiuyang City,

"... will inevitably leak out."

Not bad,

If the master presses too hard, we two will have no choice but to fight to the death. The man who had spoken just now also summoned his courage at this time,

It's not that he was born cowardly, it's just that since the Lotus avatar became the Lord of Nine Heavens, his achievements have been remarkable. Replacing Jiuren Mountain as the guardian of Jiuyang City for so many years, the powerful demons who fell into the hands of the Lotus avatar are countless. Over time, the prestige of the Lord of Nine Heavens has spread far and wide, even in Jiuyang City, the Lord of Nine Heavens is equivalent to a Golden Immortal. Even if some people know that the Lotus avatar has not yet reached the level of a Golden Immortal, so what In Jiuyang City, who dares to challenge the prestige of the Lord of Nine Heavens

Though he now knew they were far from the main city, this man still couldn't help but feel a sense of fear towards the lotus avatar.

"A last stand You overestimate yourselves. Heaven may forgive man's sins, but not his own folly. You chose this path of death, and you have no one to blame but yourselves." As the ethereal figure in the air spoke, faint sword intents emanated from the surrounding trees and flowers,

Below, or perhaps amidst the clouds, they continually emerge.

With this state of the lotus flower's division, all things can become swords. Although it is far from as miraculous when facing extremely powerful beings, against these two present individuals, it is already like using a cleaver to kill chickens.

Waves of sword intent surged in, striking the hearts of the man and woman before them. In an instant, they felt themselves plunged into a world where sword intent flowed everywhere, with everything around them constantly evolving into sword intent. Their Dao realm cultivation seemed flimsy and porous under this seemingly tranquil sword intent.

Although both exerted all their efforts, utilizing all their lifetime's learning to obstruct the omnipresent sword intent, in just a few breaths' time, one or two strands of indifferent sword intent pierced through their defenses, drawing faint bloodstains on their palms. Although such injuries were practically negligible for two individuals already at the celestial fairy level, it turned their faces deathly pale, devoid of any trace of color.

The defense was broken, and this was only the beginning. The man and the woman in blue each let out a loud shout, their bodies bursting with light, like fireballs exploding. They barely managed to expand their auras to cover an area of several hundred miles before being squeezed back by the layers upon layers of sword energy surrounding them.

The man and woman tried many ways to break out, advancing together or scattering, but every attempt was blocked by the omnipresent sword intent. In the end, there was no escape.

A moment later, a series of subtle sword qi passed through the bodies of the two people one after another. In the void, there was only a cloud of blood mist left. The bodies of the other party, along with their clothes, were shattered to pieces. Even their souls dissipated in this world.

In the void, that faint human figure with a wave of its hand, along with this pale blood color in the void, disappeared without a trace.

After eliminating these two possibly leaking guys, the faint figure in mid-air dissipated, as if it had never been here.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate anything else!

Meanwhile, the lotus avatar sat cross-legged under the Zhen Shan Sword. Constantly, celestial messengers arrived. As the lord of Jiuyang Order, the lotus avatar naturally had a dedicated palace in Jiuyang City for handling city affairs and his own staff of advisors and subordinate celestial officials. However, the lotus avatar's actual time spent in the Lord's Palace was not much. In fact, there weren't many things that required him to make decisions.

And the lotus avatar has always prioritized cultivation above all else. His role in Jiuyang City was to provide a formidable presence, capable of rivaling even Golden Immortal realms. This ensured that when the city lord led armies into battle, Jiuyang City would still have powerful figures to safeguard it.

At the beginning, the Lotus Avatar was mainly a symbol. Later, as its authority grew, and with Jiu Ren Shan constantly waging war outside, more and more power in Jiuyang City began to concentrate in the hands of the Lotus Avatar. However, apart from some important decisions, ordinary matters could be decided by the people below. But the Immortal Envoy who had returned now was obviously abnormal. He was sent back directly by Jiu Ren Shan.

The fairy attendant bowed to the lotus blossom incarnation and said, "Lord, please receive the City Lord's jade disc."

The lotus avatar stretched out a hand, summoning a jade disc alternating between red and white. It flew towards them and hovered in mid-air several dozen meters away. The image of the city lord, Jiuren Shan, appeared.

“Lord City Master!” The lotus avatar and Jiu Ren Shan bowed.

"Greetings, nameless friend. How have you been these days" Jiuren Mountain laughed.

"Thanks to the Lord's protection, the situation is still manageable. I wonder what important matter the Lord wishes to convey with this jade disc" asked the lotus avatar.

“Recently, there have been rumors circulating in the city. Have you heard of any unknown friends, Dao You” Jiuren Mountain Road.

"I have heard rumors that some people are slandering the city lord, spreading gossip and causing unrest. I have already sent my men to patrol strictly, and anyone who spreads rumors will be immediately dispersed."

The lotus incarnation nodded, even though Jiu Ren Shan's cultivation was far superior to his, and his status was something he couldn't compare to now. However, the other party was in charge of many immortal armies in Luo Yang Prison, so naturally they wouldn't know about the little things he had done in Jiuyang City. During this period, the lotus incarnation did not rely on others; from beginning to end, he personally silenced everyone involved and wasn't afraid of being exposed.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

“These people have already disrupted the foundation of Jiuyang City's rule. Unidentified Daoist friend, as an example here in Jiuyang City, should be apprehended and imprisoned. This serves as a warning to all.” Jiu Ren Shan said.

"Lord Mayor, with all due respect, such actions will only stir up more controversy," the lotus avatar frowned and said.

“I have made my decision, Daoist friend, you needn't worry about this. Just follow these instructions.” The phantom of Jiuren Mountain shook its head and ignored the advice of the lotus avatar.

“I cannot obey your order.” The lotus avatar shook its head.

“Dare you disobey” Jiuren Mountain looked at the lotus split body again, full of surprise, but also with a hint of anger in his eyes.

“Presumptuous!” The celestial envoy from the Jiuren Mountain sect earlier spoke up, rebuking him harshly.

"Ordering a city-wide patrol to root out those who speak privately is already crossing my line. I don't much care about the matter of joining forces with Heavenly Punishment Palace and storming Luo Yang Prison, but if it means punishing innocent people in Jiuyuan City, I cannot condone it," the lotus avatar shook its head.
