Chapter 4892: 5.0644 Disguise?
Now she felt hot and cold all over, as if sitting in a small boat, bobbing up and down on a stormy sea.
She tried to concentrate her spiritual consciousness, but it was very difficult.
Everything before her eyes was blurry, and the sounds in her ears seemed to drift further and further away.
An inexplicable panic surged within her. Great Overlord Jisi laboriously raised her head, trying to get a clear look at the middle-aged man before her.
But unfortunately, it was a very unremarkable face, not at all like that of a cultivator who had embarked on the path of cultivation.
There wasn't a hint of expression on that plain face.
No, wait, this person's face looked... somewhat strange, as if it were a fake face.
That's right, his face simply didn't match his overall detached, ethereal, and solitary demeanor.
This person is in disguise!
Great Overlord Jisi's eyes widened in shock. The moment this thought flashed through her mind, she felt a sharp pain in her back.
She involuntarily took a few steps forward.
"Great Overlord!" Several indigenous inhabitants of the City of Sin, seeing their leader being restrained, couldn't help but cry out in anguish.
Jisi, with Mo Lian's sword at her back, descended the stone steps one by one. Her originally captivating face was now pale and contorted.
"If you don't want to die, tell them not to resist and obediently drop their weapons," Mo Lian sneered unceremoniously, his sword piercing into the woman's lower back.
"You, what do you want?" Jisi suddenly realized she could speak and quickly shrieked, "Do you know how many citizens my Land of Sin has?! You few trying to rebel, you must be tired of living!"
"Slap!" Immortal Venerable Taohua found her words utterly boring and delivered a heavy slap across her face from a distance. "Say something actually useful."
She wondered if she should call Jisi foolish. With half her life in someone else's hands, she still dared to spout such arrogant nonsense.
Saying she was tired of living, when her own current situation was quite difficult, wasn't it?
Great Overlord Jisi had wielded power in the Deep Sea Abyss for so many years, enjoying the best of everything and having a multitude of husbands. She had never suffered such humiliation as she did today.
First being fed poison, then being publicly beaten.
How could this not make the fire of resentment rage fiercely within her heart?
"Quickly release our Great Overlord!" A trembling old man stepped forward, pointing at Mo Lian and bellowing, "You are desecrating our Great Overlord! You, you are bold, outrageously bold!"
Immortal Venerable Taohua glanced at him.
Actually, they had infiltrated this main cavern of the City Lord's Mansion two days prior and had encountered guards once or twice during that time.
Relying on the password given by Da Sen, they had safely passed through several times.
But for some reason, the password seemed to have changed today...
Hence, they were exposed.
Of course, exposure wasn't a big problem; after all, as long as one's strength was overwhelming, nothing else truly mattered.
Through their secret contact over the past two days, they had discovered a very peculiar phenomenon.
These citizens of the Land of Sin all seemed to be brainwashed, worshipping Great Overlord Jisi supremely.
So, even if resource distribution was very unfair and the food they found was harshly exploited by the Great Overlord, they still displayed an extremely reverent attitude towards the Great Overlord, without question.
The old man before them had been seen previously during the offerings at the Heavenly Pit, and was likely an old resident of the Land of Sin.
Mo Lian raised his hand, and his sword light flashed.
