olid iron, unable to budge them an inch.Ye Tian is a third-rank golden corpse, equivalent to a martial artist in the middle stage of the Heavenly Rank. In terms of level, he is one level higher than h..."Don't worry, I'll take another look."

Ye Bufan once again pressed his hand on Wu Qi's pulse point, and after a moment he withdrew it.

"How are you, Brother Ye"

Si Tu Dian Mo was filled with anxiety. She and Lu Ban Xia were usually very close, but now she was extremely nervous.

"Banh Xia was possessed!"

Ye Bufan's voice was icy cold, his eyes full of killing intent.

This body truly belongs to Lu Banxia, but the soul is no longer within it.

That is to say, now the soul belongs to Wu Qi Meimei, and the body belongs to Lu Banxia's whuiling.

"Damn it, who did this!"

Hearing this result, Si Tu Dian Mo's murderous intent surged to the heavens.

Ye Bufan frowned, now he had to determine who the other party was and see if there was any hope of retrieving Lu Banxia's soul.

Generally speaking, a witch spirit's power doesn't just come from its physical body but also from its soul. It shouldn't dissipate so easily.

But now the problem is how to get to the bottom of things, it's really too difficult.

If someone else were in this situation, they could use force without hesitation, employing any means necessary. But since it's Lu Banxia's body, this approach won't work.

If the Seven Soul-Fixing Needles technique is used, aside from not mentioning that his current spiritual power is at the peak of an Immortal Venerable and comparable to the opponent's, he doesn't have any advantage.

Even with powerful mental strength, one shouldn't use it casually. If the other person has any mental restrictions in their mind, Lu Banxia would be finished.

Even if I could retrieve the soul, this body would be unusable. After all, I've encountered this situation before.

All in all, it comes down to the fact that imprisonment is not an option, and there are no other solutions. We've asked around, but haven't gotten any answers. This has clearly become the most difficult issue.

Unable to do anything else, he looked at the ring in Wu Qi's hand and reached out to take it off, hoping to find some useful clues.

A divine sense scan revealed that the ring was large, but it contained very little.

When Ye Bufan saw those objects clearly, his expression instantly turned cold, and a murderous intent filled his eyes.

There weren't many things, all just tools used by assassins. He had dealt with several assassins from the Shadow Gate recently, so he was intimately familiar with them.

With a thought, a sign appeared in her palm. On the front were the three words "Shadow Gate," and on the back was Red Lady.

"Damn it, it's really the Shadow Gate!"

Ye Bufan was incredibly enraged, murderous intent surging through him.

Isn't the mission over just after dodging the opponent's three assassination attempts Why is there a fourth one now

The most crucial person sent was actually Lu Banxia who had taken possession of someone else's body. Was this a coincidence or was it done intentionally by the other party

I finally found some clues. Although I couldn't uncover the true culprit from Wu Qiumei, at least I have a direction to follow.

Ye Bufan completely sealed Wu Qiumei's acupoints, then took Situ Dianmo away from the Dragon King Hall and back to the Xuanji Hall.

Ao Yue Xianzi and several others were consolidating their cultivation. Upon seeing him return, they all stopped practicing.

Kim Meier saw that his face was wrong, and asked with concern: "Xiaofan, what's wrong What happened"

"Let's talk about this later."

Ye Bufan looked at Aoyue Xianzi and Qin Muyue, “How much do you know about the Shadow Gate Do you know where their lair is”

Originally, he thought that after dodging three assassination attempts, it would be over. He figured the other party wouldn't send any more assassins, and he wouldn't pursue it further either.

Anyway, since my ambition is not in the Zhongtian Domain, I will leave here soon and head to Shangtiandome.

But now that something like Lu Banxia has happened, we must find the Shadow Gate no matter what.

Ao Yue Xianzi said in surprise, "Ye Shenyi, could Wu Qi Meimei before have been an assassin from the Dark Shadow Sect"

"Yes, she is indeed from the Shadow Gate."

Ye Bufan did not say about Lu Banxia's witch spirit, but instead told from beginning to end his grievances with the Shadow Gate.

By the end, he asked, “Didn’t it say that the Shadow Sect had their rules, and if you survived three assassination missions, it would end Why suddenly a fourth one”

Ao Yue Xian Zi's face was full of surprise, she didn't expect that he had such a entanglement with the Shadow Gate, nor did she expect that he had actually dodged three assassination attempts.

To be assassinated by the Shadow Sect in Zhongtian Domain is tantamount to a death sentence, with almost no one surviving.

Taking a deep breath to calm her racing heart, she said: "You're right. The Shadow Sect does have such rules. A mission is considered abandoned if there are three consecutive assassination failures."

But has Divine Physician Ye ever thought, will he trigger a second mission

"The second task"

Ye Bufan was stunned and asked, "Do you mean that someone has offered a reward to assassinate me again"

It should be like this.

Ao Yue Xian Zi said, "I heard the Grand Elder mention that the Dark Shadow Gate does indeed have such a rule."

But to launch a second task for the same person, the cost is also extremely high, the commission at least ten times that of the first, or even higher.

Ye Bufan said nothing, at this moment he only had "what the heck" in his heart.

After taking care of the third assassin, I thought that was the end of it. Never expected to be reassigned to this task again.

Who on earth is the other party How much hatred do they have for me to go to such lengths

Ao Yue Xian Zi continued, "Moreover, this matter is quite serious. The Shadow Gate has always hidden in the shadows, and no one knows how strong it truly is, but everyone has a guess."

It should be about the same as the Three Sects. Judging by this strength, there are probably no more than three peak Immortal Venerable level powerhouses.

"And Wu Qi Mei who attacked you before is at the peak of Immortal Venerable, she's definitely a high-level member of the Dark Shadow Sect, either an elder or the sect master himself."

Aoyue Xianzi, after all, is a direct disciple of Bixia Sect. The information she possesses is much more detailed than what Luo Bingyan had before.

And for this very reason, after she finished speaking, a gasp of astonishment rippled through the crowd.

Qin Muyue said, "Isn't that saying we've reached a situation of life and death"

Ye Bufan didn't care about these things. Even if the Shadow Gate didn't cause him trouble, he would still go to their door. He had to get back Lu Banxia's primordial spirit no matter what.

"Do you know where the Shadow Gate is located How can I find its lair"

When he finished speaking, Ao Yue Fairy was startled: "Ye Shenyi, what are you going to do You won't be going to find the Shadow Gate, will you"

"Getting to that point, she looked eager and said: 'We should think this through carefully. Don't act rashly. Even though you're incredibly powerful now, it's still not enough to take on the Shadow Gate.'"

Everything said before is just speculation, no one knows how strong it really is, perhaps even stronger than this.

"Let me go back and discuss with the sect leader. We'll see if Bixia Sect can offer our full support."

"I appreciate the fairy's kindness, but I don't need this. I'll figure it out myself."

Ye Bufan didn't want to involve Bixia Sect in this. He said, "Fairy, if you just tell me where they are, it would be a great help. I would be incredibly grateful."

"That..."

Ao Yue Xianzi sighed, seeing his resolute attitude she had no choice but to say: “The exact location of the Shadow Gate is unknown to anyone. Legend has it that they hide within the Zang Xian Valley. That's why no one has found their lair for so many years, after all, it’s too dangerous there.” secretly astonished in his heart. His cultivation speed had increased too rapidly, as if there were no bottlenecks at all.But he couldn't care about anything else now, only frantically absorbing the...
