In the alley next to the inn, Jiang Fan quietly jumped up to the roof, and then returned to his room through the window.
He dispersed his spiritual body, practiced on the spot, and recovered the spiritual power consumed by the assimilation barrier.
After dawn, he left the room as usual, went to the first floor to have a quick bite, and chatted with the landlady for a few words. At least he got to know each other here first, so that he wouldn't panic if any problems arise in the future.
He didn't plan to stay in the inn that day. He came to the city in the morning to investigate the situation of the Wu family. It was definitely not an easy place to trap Wang Xi.
However, it is not easy for Jiang Fan to buy news about the Wu family in this city, so he is simply asking for trouble.
Unfortunately, there was very little useful information available, but there was one place that Jiang Fan was looking forward to. This was the place where idle monks gathered in the city, and where bounty missions were issued in the city.
In this Tianlin wilderness, from every royal city to a small border city, almost every city has a similar place.
Jiang Fan heard that this was a very powerful force in Tianlinhuang that controlled everything.
There are not only monks from the royal city here, but also monks from other dynasties. Most of them do not have much background, but they can unite in small groups to complete tasks together and support each other.
After Jiang Fan inquired about the specific location, he came directly here to see if he could get some information from such a place.
This is definitely one of the larger buildings in the city. It has a completely open door. When you enter, you will find a hall. There are monks in groups, some chatting and some drinking. It is very lively.
Jiang Fan entered and found a relatively quiet spot first. He carefully observed the monks here. He later discovered that the age range of the monks here ranged from old men to the divine realm to young men who could not reach the life-threatening realm.
people.
These monks are generally not very high in cultivation, and the stronger monks will be attracted and absorbed by various forces early on. After all, only a very small number of casual cultivators can truly rise.
Seeing Jiang Fan alone, someone soon came towards him, invited him to join the team, and informed Jiang Fan of the mission they planned to take on next.
Jiang Fan politely declined his invitation, and the other party was not angry and went directly to find other people to join the team. This is obviously the norm here. For these casual cultivators, if they can find reliable helpers, the mission is half successful.
However, Jiang Fan's attention was not on these people, but on listening to what several groups of drinking monks nearby were talking about.
Although Wang Xi arrived here a few months ago, logically speaking, her sudden appearance should interest many people.
Unfortunately, he didn't hear anything interesting for two full hours.
Just when Jiang Fan was about to leave, a group of people walked in outside the door, and their conversation successfully attracted Jiang Fan's attention.
This is a group of middle-aged people. The monk they lead is not weak at all and has reached the eighth level of the Divine Dharma Realm. This is definitely considered a stronger level among the surrounding monks.
What he said to the monks next to him was full of envy at this time.
"There are people who have reached heaven in one step since they were born. The Ninth Prince's cultivation is not very good, but he can marry such a beauty. It is really enviable."
"Are you talking about that talented woman named Wang Xian? She didn't know where she came from, just like a fairy who descended to earth! But her identity as the Ninth Prince is worthy of her, after all, there are not many in Tianlinhuang.
Prince."
Another monk continued: "Your Highness is really powerful. Even though he knew that a master at the peak of Li Chen Realm appeared, he still sent people to capture her and trapped her elders. It is said that he would wait until the Ninth Prince got married to Wang Xian.
, let’s have a good discussion with her, but I don’t know if the big shot will agree to this marriage, although she can’t control anything.”
The monk who spoke at the beginning looked at the two of them in surprise: "I didn't expect you to know so much news. I thought this matter hadn't spread yet."
"It's not a secret at all. I heard that the palace has begun to prepare a banquet for people from all walks of life. The prince's marriage is a big event, and it should be announced to the world in the near future. The wedding should be a matter of a week or two. Maybe there will be a wedding in the city by then.
There are some benefits, so I plan to live in the royal city for a while."
"That makes sense!"
Jiang Fan said nothing. After listening, he stood up and left the building.
He looked towards the direction of the royal city, his eyes flashing with anger. He knew that something must have happened to Wang Xian. If those monks were right, Wang Xian should be under house arrest in the palace.
Instead of continuing to wander around the city, he planned to go back to the inn first, and then wait for the evening to continue trying to sneak into Wu's house.
On the way back, a huge explosion suddenly sounded. Jiang Fan looked in the direction of the sound and was surprised to find that the sound came from the direction of the Wu family and the palace.
The ground trembled, showing its power.
Just when Jiang Fan was confused, two monks setting up stalls nearby started talking directly.
"It's been another seven days, right? That lady is really powerful. After being trapped for such a long time, she is still so strong. It seems that it will be difficult for the palace to subdue her."
"It's also her fault for being so brave. She dared to break into the royal city on her own. She didn't take this place seriously, so it's not surprising that she was suppressed. People must be responsible for what they do."
Jiang Fan walked directly towards the two of them, and while looking at the things on the stall, he asked with a smile: "Boss, was the noise just now made by the master trapped by the Wu family?"
The monk looked at Jiang Fan and said directly: "You came from the outer city, right? Every seven days, the trapped adult would attack the barrier with all his strength and try to break through the restrictions. Unfortunately, it didn't help. The Wu family trapped her
Her formation was blessed by the formation master invited by the royal palace, and it is even connected with the city protection formation of our royal city. Not to mention that she is just a monk, even if several masters of the Lichen Realm join forces, they may not be able to shake it.
Every cent."
But when it came to this, he raised his eyebrows and said: "Why am I telling you so much? Do you want to buy something or not? If you don't, leave quickly. Don't disturb us here to sell things."
Jiang Fan stood up and left without buying anything, but he learned more about Wang Xi.
These two vendors really helped me a lot, directly telling the reason why the Wu family was able to trap Wang Xi.
Thinking back to the barriers I sensed at Wu's house last night, it was obvious that they were not the most important thing.
He said to himself: "It seems that I will be quite busy tonight."
He originally thought that the whole day was wasted, but he didn't expect that he would gain so much. He already knew everything he wanted to know.
He planned to meet Wang Xi first, and then find a way to sneak into the palace and bring Wang Xian out.
After returning to the inn, Jiang Fan went directly to his room and slept first. In the evening, he went downstairs to eat something, and then returned to the room again to gather his spiritual body. He suppressed his breath and planned to leave the inn.
At night, Jiang Fan quietly left from the window just like yesterday, and soon came to the alley beside the wall of Wu's courtyard.
There was no Lin Zhan as an informant today, so Jiang Fan had to be careful when he acted. He slowly climbed over the courtyard wall and first came to the concealment formation arranged yesterday. This formation was not discovered by anyone, and everything was hidden.
Very normal.
Yesterday's actions gave him a rough idea of the distribution of Wu family monks, so Jiang Fan didn't need to worry about anything in front of the first two barriers. The spiritual power he assimilated yesterday could still be mobilized at any time today. Jiang Fan easily arrived at the last courtyard yesterday.
Among them, it was already very close to Wang Xi's aura.
However, today's courtyard seems much quieter than yesterday. At least I haven't met a single monk since I entered here.
Jiang Fan pressed his hand on the barrier and did not start to assimilate immediately. Instead, he used his spiritual power to sense Lin Zhan's position.
As a formation spirit, Lin Zhan was hardly restricted in the formation. When he felt Jiang Fan's call, he returned as soon as possible. He also planned to inform Jiang Fan of what he had discovered that day as soon as possible.
Jiang Fan obviously didn't want to act rashly. After all, he had already reached this point. If all the previous efforts were wasted, more time would be wasted.
About three minutes later, Lin Zhan's aura gathered near Jiang Fan.
"Little Lord!"
Jiang Fan went straight to the topic: "How is it? What did you find?"
"Now I have completely understood this barrier, but I found that the aura of the barrier in front is very powerful. I tried to enter through the formation on the ground but was blocked by some force. I will see if you can take action later.
I'll send it in."
Jiang Fan said directly: "That barrier is probably connected to the protective formation of the royal city. Of course it is very powerful. Now this barrier is not controlled by spiritual thoughts, right?"
Lin Zhan said: "During the day, a spiritual thought swept through, but it did not control the formation, so you don't need to be too afraid, just start assimilating."
Jiang Fan directly used his Formation-Breaking Spirit Map to continue assimilating spiritual power. He knew that Wang Xi was probably in the next courtyard, and he was very curious about Wang Xi's current situation.
It took half an hour to assimilate the spiritual power this time, but Jiang Fan had no intention of resting and continued to move forward. But at this time, he could vaguely sense the aura of the big shot, which was the aura of a master in the Lichen Realm.
It's not that far away from him.
However, he didn't have much to think about to see Wang Xi, so he quietly came to the next courtyard. The barrier Lin Zhan mentioned before should be the one in the courtyard in front of him.
Jiang Fan discovered that the barrier was not transparent and could not see through the naked eye what was inside. Even if Jiang Fan used his Fire Golden Eyes, he was still disturbed by a very special force and could not see Wang Xi.
However, the aura of Fu Lingyu was not far in front of him, so if he wanted to see Wang Xi, he had to pass through the barrier in front of him.
Jiang Fan used his spiritual power and then injected it into the formation. He planned to try to see if he could send Lin Zhan into it.
But as soon as Lin Zhan entered the barrier, he immediately reminded Jiang Fan anxiously.
