Don't take it, I switched to the ruthless way

Chapter 142 Upside Down

"This formation is called the Inversion Formation. As the name suggests, anything that enters this formation will be turned upside down. Supreme Elder, please take a look -"

While adjusting the formation in the air, Li Jiu put a huge boulder into the formation and said:
"If a person enters this formation, it will be turned upside down. Of course, people will not feel any discomfort inside it."

With that said, Li Jiu flew into the formation.

He stood on the boulder inside the formation, but his whole body was upside down.

This appearance seems a bit strange.

Li Jiu took two steps as usual, looking relaxed.

"With such a stone, if we can raise the entire inner city, we can use this formation to hang the entire inner city in the air. In this way, everyone in the inner sea will still have a place to live..."

While talking, Li Jiu looked at Kong Ruolan.
There was a fiery light in his eyes.

Kong Ruolan stood outside the formation and watched Li Jiu's formation for a long time.

Immediately, she entered the formation herself and felt it carefully.

Zhuoping on the side also followed in, and then smiled and said:

"Ajiu, this formation of yours is really powerful. Just now, I looked at your reflection outside and felt something was wrong. However, since entering this formation, I haven't felt any discomfort at all, and I just followed you outside. It’s like walking on flat ground.”

After hearing Zhuoping's compliment, Li Jiu scratched his head and smiled innocently.

Kong Ruolan also said: "Your inverted formation is indeed quite wonderful."

Li Jiu immediately asked in anticipation: "Then, can the disciple ask the Supreme Elder to help lift up the entire inner city and put it into this formation?"

Kong Ruolan smiled slightly and said, "In that case, the inner city will be rectified according to your instructions."

When Kong Ruolan said so, he agreed.

——Li Jiu felt that his heart, which had been tense for a long time, finally settled.

But his heart beat rapidly again due to excitement, "Supreme Elder, in this case, can the mortals and other monks in the inner sea continue to stay?"

Kong Ruolan shook his head, "No, they still have to move out of the inland sea as soon as possible. Huh? Isn't today the day for them to leave? Why don't you go and get this done?"

Hearing this, the smile on Li Jiu's face froze, and he said:
"Supreme Elder, my disciples have already studied this inverted formation, so they can continue to stay in this inner city. Can't they, can't they also continue to stay..."

However, in the face of Kong Ruolan's increasingly cold expression and increasingly indifferent eyes, Li Jiu's words became quieter and quieter, and his hot heart became colder and colder.

Kong Ruolan said calmly: "You have done your best for the people in Inner Sea."

Seeing this, Zhuo Ping couldn't bear it anymore. He cupped his hands to Kong Ruolan and begged:

"Master, this disciple also asks the master to take back his orders and let everyone in Inner Sea stay."

Kong Ruolan turned to look at Zhuo Ping, then looked at Li Jiu and said:

"You two have pure minds and only think about the people in Inner Sea. I will naturally understand.

But now, Wanyan Sect is in turmoil, and there is a huge treasure hidden under this inner sea.

Recently, thieves have come frequently to spy... Can't you see all this? "

After hearing what Kong Ruolan said, Zhuoping slowly put down his hands, frowned, and was silent for a moment.

Li Jiu, on the other hand, was a little lost.

Kong Ruolan added, "Moreover, in this inner sea, beast tides frequently attack. If the mortals in the inner sea could go to the foot of the mountain of Wanyan Sect and be protected by Wanyan Sect, wouldn't they be safer than here?
And if those monks who are not my Wanyan Sect become greedy for the spirit stone mines under the Inland Sea and cooperate with the thieves outside, then in this Inner Sea, without me, I will continue to stay here and sit here. Only you, How can we protect it? "

Li Jiu's eyes trembled, and the corners of his mouth moved slightly.

He wanted to say: No, everyone in Inland Sea has always been united and would never do anything harmful to Inland Sea... However, he could not say these words again.

Kong Ruolan also seemed to see Li Jiu's thoughts and said coldly:
"Profits are the most attractive, but people's hearts are the most unpredictable. As the city lord of Inner Sea, you have been in charge of Inner Sea for many years, but you still don't understand this truth?"

Zhuo Ping looked at Li Jiu's devastated look and couldn't help but sigh secretly.

"Ajiu, you——"

"I understand." Li Jiu said sadly: "Disciple, take them out of the inner sea now."

After saying that, Li Jiu handed over to Kong Ruolan and Zhuo Ping, then turned and left Erdao.

However, the upside-down formation created by Li Jiu was not taken away, but allowed to remain in place.

This battle was originally done for the inner sea.

Although the final result was not exactly what he wanted, he did his best to do what he could.

Li Jiu could naturally understand what Kong Ruolan said.

But thinking of the mortals in the Inner Sea and the monks in the Inner Sea who were about to leave, Li Jiu felt guilty.

As the city lord of Inner Sea, he still failed to do his best for everyone in Inner Sea.

Mo Yunzhi, Qi Yi and others looked at each other in shock when they saw Li Jiu's lonely look from a distance.

"Ah Jiu, what's wrong with you?"

Li Jiu secretly took a deep breath. After flying from the air, the disappointment on his face was already covered up, "Nothing happened."

A foundation-building monk asked: "City Lord, are we finally going to set off?"

Li Jiu raised his head and saw that everyone was looking at him.

At this moment, he felt extremely heavy in his heart.

But there was a gentle smile on his face: "Yes, let's go."

Li Jiu said as he started to activate the large teleportation array.

He has already repaired this formation.

However, what he didn't expect was that he would send everyone away in this way.

Mo Yunzhi was thoughtful and seemed to have noticed something, so she also smiled and said:

"I heard that Yuewan Village has beautiful mountains and clear waters, and it is a village at the foot of the Wanyan Sect Mountain. I believe that in the future, under the protection of the Wanyan Sect, these mortals will be able to live and settle down.

Moreover, not far from Yuewan Village is the largest Luocheng Xianfang in the entire Eastern Region. "

Qi Yi also said: "In this case, after arriving at Yuewan Village, we can go to Zhucheng Xianfang for a good stroll."

"Yeah, I've been waiting in the inner sea for so long, and I haven't been to Xianfang for a long time."

A monk who has never left the inner sea said: "I heard that there is everything in the Immortal Workshop. I wonder if you can customize a magic weapon for me."

"Of course you can." Li Jiu also smiled, "I also know that there is a place called Xianlai Pavilion. The immortal food produced there is the most delicious, and it can turn into spiritual energy when you enter it. When the time comes, I will invite you to go inside and enjoy the food. Have a meal.”

"Okay! City Lord, I will take note of your words."

"Haha, you are indispensable..."
