Chapter 243: They Were The Ones Who Suffered

Seeing that everyone’s mood was unprecedentedly high and all of them had the intention of attacking Lin Bai, a smile flashed across the City Lord’s eyes, followed by some haze and viciousness.
If it weren’t for Lin Bai, his plan would have succeeded by now, and the capital would have long been his world. Now, everything would have to start all over again. Moreover, his vitality had been greatly damaged, and he needed to lay low quietly and find another opportunity. He needed to recuperate for a
long time before he could make a comeback.
In any case, he had already been sealed for a thousand years. It did not matter if he wasted a decade or a century years. He was just a little unwilling. Success was clearly right in front of him, but he had fallen short because of one person.
Who would have thought that this cultivator called Lin Bai would have such great ability? If he did not cut him into pieces, it would be difficult to dispel the hatred in his heart.
“Pass down my orders. Search the entire capital for Lin Bai. Even if you have to dig three feet into the ground, you must find him. In addition, from now on, people are strictly prohibited from entering and leaving the city gates. If you want to leave the city, you must have my documents and token.
Otherwise, no one is allowed to pass. If you see anyone suspicious or trying to force their way out, immediately report back and capture them!”
Although he was injured, his prestige was still there. Moreover, the City Lord’s Estate was still there. Everyone hurriedly nodded their heads in agreement.
‘The City Lord faced the clan leaders and elders of the few great aristocratic families and bowed one after another. “This time, I still have to thank everyone for helping me. Otherwise, I would have fallen into the trap of a thief. Everyone is meritorious and has saved the capital from fire and water.”
These words were extremely beautiful. Everyone hurriedly said, “City Lord, you are too polite. It is within our capabilities. Moreover, if the City Lord is in trouble, we will definitely not stand by.”
“That’s right, that’s right. We have set up an inescapable net. I believe that Lin Bai will not be able to escape even if he has wings. It is only a matter of time before we catch him.”
“There will be no eggs left intact after the nest is overthrown. We will definitely help City Lord catch the fish that escaped the net as soon as possible.”
Even though they usually fought for power and benefits, most people still understood this principle in the face of great injustice. Generations of City Lords had always had the responsibility to suppress the evil demons and protect the seal.
There were also some aristocratic families who knew the secret. They knew that if the evil demon really broke the seal and reappeared in the world, it would be a disaster for the people. Presumably, the capital would no longer exist, and it would be harmful to them.
Naturally, they had to help the City Lord.
However, they never thought that the core of the person in front of them had already changed. The real City Lord’s consciousness had been invaded by the evil demon, and it was possible that he had already disappeared into thin air.
The City Lord in front of them was only a clone of the monster, or rather, his spiritual power. He had even misled everyone, tampering with Yan Hua and the others’ memories, making everyone think that Lin Bai was the one who had been possessed by the evil demons.
A wisp of spiritual power was already so powerful. If the real body had come out, one could imagine how powerful it was. Unfortunately, everyone had been kept in the dark, and the only person who knew the truth, Lin Bai, had been hunted down by them as an evil demon.
Soon, the news of Lin Bai’s capture was spread out.
Bai Xi and the others soon learned of this. One incident hadn’t even ended yet and another came. When they heard this news, they were even more incredulous.
“What! Senior brother Lin actually became a demon? How is this possible? We have been living with senior brother Lin all day long. There must be some misunderstanding.”
“I’s absolutely true. I also found out by accident. It’s said that after senior brother Lin went to the City Lord’s estate, he accidentally touched some forbidden array. Then, he was corroded by the demonic qi inside and became the puppet of the demon. He did a lot of bad things in the dark, and even the City
Lord and the Deputy City Lord were affected.”
“After the City Lord woke up, he immediately exposed senior brother Lin’s crimes. The reinforcements and elders from the various large families also rushed over and joined forces to deal with senior brother Lin. Seeing that the matter was exposed, senior brother Lin escaped with serious injuries and his
whereabouts were unknown.”
“Mn any case, the City Lord has ordered the entire city to search for senior brother Lin. We can’t even leave the city. We have to find senior brother Lin’s whereabouts.”
‘When everyone heard this, they were shocked. “Senior brother Lin fought against so many heroes, but he actually escaped. Just how powerful is he? They were the top-tier elite of the various aristocratic families.”
Qin Yan and the others couldn’t help but roll their eyes. “You’re focusing on the wrong things. That’s not the main point. The main point is that senior brother is being hunted down as a demon.”
“If senior brother Lin was really possessed by a demon, with the support of demon qi, it’s no wonder that he could fight with those elders.”
Those who had received Lin Bai’s favor were somewhat displeased when they heard this. “What do you mean? How could senior brother Lin be a demon? How could a person like him be possessed by Devil Qi
“It’s not like I said it. Since the City Lord has said it, it must be true.”
Seeing that both sides were in a heated argument, Bai Xi said in a deep voice, “What time is it? You still have the mood to argue here! A disaster is coming, do you know that?”
There was a moment of silence in the air, and a deathly silence spread.
Bai XI said coldly, “Use your brains to think. If Lin Bai was really possessed by the demon and committed a heinous crime, and now he has escaped, who do you think will be the first to suffer misfortune now that the City Lord and the others haven’t caught him yet?”
Lin Bai was with them, and they were fellow disciples. It was hard to say whether these people would use them as fish in order to lure Lin Bai into taking the bait.
The first person who thought it through couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. “You’re saying that the City Lord will find us?”
Bai Xi revealed a sarcastic smile. “Looks like you’re not too stupid. Now you know to be afraid. Wasn’t your argument quite lively just now?”
Everyone looked at each other and felt their eyes go black. They finally understood what it meant to be in trouble.
