Chapter 850: 846-2

In the heart of Exorcist City at this moment, a host of exorcists rushed out, not to ward off the demons outside the city, but surrounded the Zhuge Manor while dressed in white robes and carried long swords in their hands.

Ni Feng stood right in front of the group of exorcists, looking at the tightly shut iron gate of the Zhuge Manor from behind her veil.

She glanced at the disciple of the Ni family next to her.

The disciple did not say anything and immediately dragged Madam Zhuge over, shouting at Zhuge Manor, “Zhuge Yun, because of you, Madam Zhuge put the safety of the Exorcist City at risk. Are you going to continue hiding in Zhuge Manor like a coward?”

Madam Zhuge knew that all of this was Ni Feng’s doing, so she remained silent and just stood there without any warmth in her eyes.

Ni Feng, however, was very polite and gave the disciple of the Ni family a scolding look, “Do not speak like this in the future.” Then she looked at Madam Zhuge again, “Auntie, Brother Yun has been controlled by hostile ghosts. I must capture him, otherwise it will be irresponsible to the people of the entire Exorcist City. I know you will blame me, but now that the situation has come to this, I can no longer care so much. Please forgive me.”

Her words were not meant for Madam Zhuge, but for the exorcists who were following behind her.

Today’s affairs must end in bloodshed.

Once Zhuge Yun and the others came out later, they were bound to reveal her secret.

If she did not say something in advance, the people would surely raise suspicions against her by then.

As long as she continued to strengthen the public’s impression that Zhuge Yun had been possessed by hostile ghosts, and all that she had done was just to protect the Exorcist City.

Even if Zhuge Yun and the others really found a chance to say something, no one would believe them.

Because in the people’s minds, that was just the provocation of hostile ghosts.

Even if these exorcists did not think so, she would still convince them to think that way.

If she did not come up with a way to kill all the people who had been to the ancient tomb, there was a chance that her secret would be leaked.

Thus, Zhuge Yun and the others must die!

As Ni Feng thought of this, her eyes narrowed and she deliberately lowered her status, “Auntie, don’t worry. As long as Bother Yun doesn’t do anything that crosses the line, everything will be fine.”

Just as Ni Feng expected, everyone supported her even more as they saw her gesture, “Feng’er, there is no need to say so much to the Zhuge family. As one of the Four Factions, she had forgotten the most basic principle of an exorcist. So just go ahead with anything that you want to do, we will back you up.”

“That’s right,” said the elder of another faction. He looked at Madam Zhuge and shook his head, “I never thought that the Zhuge family would become what it is now. When the Zhuge brothers were still alive, they would never have tolerated demons hiding in the family. Since he has been possessed by evil spirits, we must deal with it as soon as possible. She put the lives of the whole city at risk, she is not worthy to be an exorcist!”

Madam Zhuge had no explanation against the clamor of everyone else.

In the Zhuge Manor, several exorcists were working together to grab onto Zhuge Yun, preventing him from going out.

“Ah Yun, you can’t go!”

“That’s right, Young Master. Madam gave us orders before she left. You can’t go out no matter what happens!”

“Zhuge Yun, have you forgotten what Miss Wei said before leaving? Try your best to gain more time, don’t let Ni Feng notice anything!”

Zhuge Yun bit his lip harshly, his eyes red, “You guys stay here, I will go out there myself! I can’t sit by and let these people slander my mother and the reputation of the Zhuge family for so many generations!”

“But what can you do when you go out there? You heard it yourself. Right now, all the exorcists of the entire Exorcist City are on Ni Feng’s side. They believe everything that she’s saying. Even if you go out there, you can’t change the situation.” Someone yelled at Zhuge Yun, with his fingers pressing down on his shoulder, “Ni Feng is very cunning. When we were at the royal tomb, we were all fooled by her. If it wasn’t for Miss Wei, we would never have known that she even dared to fake the identity of the reincarnated Phoenix Girl. If you go out there now, we don’t know what method she will use to deal with you.”

Zhuge Yun’s eyes looked pure black and extremely sharp, “Even so, I can’t let her do whatever she wants. Even if going out there means a dead end, I will still tear down her hypocrisy and let everyone know what kind of woman she is!”

“Zhuge Yun!” The exorcists soon realized that they could not stop him, so they could only watch his back as he walked out the entrance while gritting their teeth, “Wait a minute, we will go with you!”

They had been exorcists for so long that they had forgotten why their younger selves had promised their fathers that they would uphold justice and fight evil.

No one knew exactly when the Exorcist City started to change and was no longer as simple as before.

The perfect cooperation that once existed between the factions had turned into a fight for power.

As exorcists who used to focus on exorcism, they started to consider what they could do to better maintain the benefits of their families.

But now, for the first time in forever, they regained that purest impulse.

They would break all these unknown rules, let everyone know what the truth was, and be a person who would truly uphold justice and fight evil!

Boom!

Someone had pushed the door open forcefully with their hands!

Zhuge Yun stood there as his eyes met Ni Feng’s gaze directly. There was a certain coolness in his voice, “Ni Feng, weren’t you looking for me? Now that I’m here, let my mother go!”

Ni Feng seemed to be startled by his appearance. She deliberately reached out to pat her chest, coughing weakly a couple of times before she spoke, “Brother Yun has indeed been possessed by hostile ghosts, or else his aura of resentment would not be so strong toward me. Auntie, is it because of this that you said nothing and kept Brother Yun in the Zhuge Manor? Unfortunately, his violence is so obvious. The seniors are here as well, and they would not allow him to go on like this.”

“Enough!” A few voices sounded from behind Zhuge Yun. The exorcists who had been to the ancient tomb stood in a line before the entrance of the Zhuge Manor. They were all wearing white exorcism robes, looking at Ni Feng with icy gazes, “Each of us are perfectly fine standing before you, yet you insist that we have been possessed by evil spirits. You’re just afraid that we will expose your secret. Ni Feng, did you really think that you could have the entire Exorcist City in the palm of your hands?!”

The moment when the exorcists came out, Ni Feng did feel a little troubled. She was worried that there might be some unforeseen circumstances, but when she looked around and found no shadows of Phoenix, she laughed in her heart.

She thought that the other party dared to fight against her because they had some tricks up their sleeves, but in fact, there was nothing. They were just a bunch of fools.

Since she could convince all the exorcists of the Exorcist City to listen to her, naturally, she had come well prepared!
