"What's going on? Why did these guys suddenly become stronger?" Feng Baobao asked while fighting.

Li Tong also noticed something unusual. He found that the strength of himself and his companions seemed to be suppressed. He looked around carefully, trying to find out the reason.

At this time, the voice of Monk Yongjue came: "Donor Li, you have been trapped in my Twelve Labor Emotion Formation. This formation can stimulate the desires in people's hearts and make them fall into endless illusions. Coupled with the influence of my Hua Zi Zai Tian Demon Mantra, you can no longer extricate yourself."

Li Tong was shocked when he heard this. He finally understood why he and his companions were suppressed. It turned out that all this was done by Monk Yongjue!

"Monk Yongjue, you are indeed a genius!" Li Tong sneered, "But do you think you can trap us like this?"

Monk Yongjue's voice sounded again: "Donor Li, you are too kind. My practice is still shallow, and I cannot make you completely fall into a certain desire. But I can still influence you slightly."

Li Tong's heart sank. He knew that Monk Yongjue was telling the truth. But now was not the time to be depressed. He had to find a way to solve this dilemma.

He took a deep breath and began to think carefully about countermeasures. He had to consider how to break the influence of the Twelve Labor Emotion Formation and the Transformation of Freedom Heavenly Devil Curse, and also how to preserve his strength so that he could win the battle against Qu Tong later.

However, just as he was thinking, Goudan, who had been motionless, suddenly spoke up: "Li Tong, don't bother. Although this monk's methods are powerful, they are nothing to me. Let me handle it."

Li Tong was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect Goudan to speak at this time. But looking at Goudan's confident look, he couldn't help but feel a surge of hope in his heart.

"Ah--" Goudan's barking echoed in the corridor, making Li Tong's ears buzz. He looked at Goudan in surprise, and saw that his eyes were shining, as if a mysterious power was surging in his body.

As Goudan barked, the air around him seemed to tremble. The enemies who were originally arrogant now looked terrified, as if they were frightened by something terrible.

At this moment, a scream suddenly came from the second floor. Li Tong looked up and saw Monk Yongjue fell from the railing on the second floor, blood flowing from his eyes and nose, looking very miserable.

It turned out that Goudan's shouting actually broke the evil magic of Monk Yongjue. He originally relied on this evil way to control the enemy, but he didn't expect that Goudan's shouting would break his magic. At this moment, he was so weak that he couldn't even stand up.

Seeing the miserable state of Monk Yongjue, Li Tong felt happy. He knew that it was time to end the battle.

He waved his weapon and led everyone to rush towards the remaining enemies. After a fierce battle, the enemies fell one after another, and only Li Tong and his companions were left in the corridor.

"There are rooms on the second floor. We have to go up and take a look." Li Tong said, and took the lead to walk towards the stairs. He knew that there might be greater dangers hidden there.

When Li Tong kicked open the door of the room on the second floor, a familiar figure appeared in front of him - Shen Chong.

Shen Chong is one of the four madmen, and is usually known for his cunningness. But at this moment, he looks a little embarrassed, trying to break the window and escape from the scene.

"Li Tong, please listen to my explanation..." Shen Chong showed an awkward smile on his face when he saw Li Tong.

"What to explain? Explain why you betrayed us?" Li Tong sneered and approached Shen Chong step by step.

"Li Tong, I really didn't betray you. I just..." Shen Chong tried to explain, but was interrupted by Li Tong before he could finish his words.

"Enough! I've heard enough of your excuses. Do you think I don't know your background? You are just an opportunist who will only betray others for your own benefit." Li Tong said, punching Shen Chong in the face.

Shen Chong was knocked to the ground, blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. He raised his head and looked at Li Tong, with a trace of resentment and unwillingness in his eyes.

"Li Tong, you will regret it!" Shen Chong said gritting his teeth.

"What I regret is that I didn't see your true face earlier!" Li Tong said, turned around and left the room.

"Li Tong, why do you sentence me to death? I just joined Quan Xing and became one of the four madmen. This is not my choice!" Shen Chong roared, his voice full of unwillingness.

Li Tong sneered, unmoved, "Your ability, your ambition, are all your sins. Today, I will eliminate you!"

Before he finished speaking, Li Tong punched out with a fierce punch, aiming directly at Shen Chong. Although Shen Chong had a good cultivation, he was still unable to withstand Li Tong's thundering blow, and was knocked out by the punch and fell heavily to the ground.

"Your cultivation is gathered but not condensed, and extremely loose. It seems that you have been relying on devouring the cultivation of others to grow yourself over the years. Such power is not yours after all." Li Tong said lightly, with a trace of disdain in his eyes.

Shen Chong lay on the ground, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, his eyes full of despair. He knew he was no match for Li Tong, but the reluctance in his heart burned like a flame.

At this time, Dou Mei, who was standing by, saw this and felt a chill in her heart. She knew that she was no match for Li Tong, so she chose to surrender. She walked up to Li Tong, bowed her head and said, "Senior Li, I am willing to surrender and follow your arrangements."

Li Tong glanced at her and nodded, "You are sensible."

After dealing with Shen Chong and Dou Mei, Li Tong turned to look at Zhang Chulan and the others, "How's your search going?"

Zhang Chulan shook his head. "We have searched the second floor. Except for Monk Yongjue's room, the other places are empty. It seems that Qu Tong is no longer here."

Li Tong frowned, "Where can she run to? Has she noticed our actions?"

Zhang Chulan pondered for a moment, "Maybe she got the news in advance, or maybe she hid in a secret place on the second floor. In any case, we can't take it lightly."

At this moment, a slight noise suddenly came from the corridor on the second floor. Li Tong, Zhang Chulan and others immediately looked in the direction of the sound with vigilance. They saw a figure slowly walking out of the darkness. It was Qu Tong who had disappeared before.

"You are here as expected." Qu Tong sneered, with a cunning light flashing in her eyes.

A cold light flashed in Li Tong's eyes, "Qu Tong, do you think you can escape?"

Qu Tong chuckled, "Escape? Why should I escape? This is my battlefield."

Li Tong nodded, holding a talisman in his hand, with a determined light in his eyes, "My tracking talisman will not be wrong, Qu Tong is in this villa."

Zhang Chulan took a deep breath. He knew Li Tong’s tracking methods, but Qu Tong was also famous for his cunning. If he couldn’t find the person, then this operation would be in vain.

Li Tong turned around and looked at Monk Yongjue, Dou Mei and Shen Chong.

"Does anyone know Qu Tong's exact location?" His voice was cold and full of unquestionable majesty.

Monk Yongjue was injured and could only lie on the ground. He shook his head and said nothing. Dou Mei closed her eyes tightly, as if she didn't hear what Li Tong said. Shen Chong frowned, as if he was thinking about something.

Li Tong didn't have the patience to wait any longer. He looked at Lu Liang and said, "Search his soul."

At this moment, Li Tong suddenly felt a strong sense of crisis rising from the bottom of his heart. He raised his head suddenly, and a trace of fear flashed in his eyes. "Everyone, be alert and move closer to me!" His voice was full of tension.

Everyone reacted immediately, took up a defensive stance, and surrounded Li Tong. Monk Yongjue, Dou Mei, and Shen Chong, who were lying on the ground, were also bewildered, not understanding why there was suddenly such a great danger.

"boom!"

A loud bang came from the bottom of the villa, and the whole villa seemed to be penetrated by a huge force. The violent vibration made everyone unstable.

"Defense!" Li Tong shouted loudly.

The defensive magic weapons on everyone's body instantly expanded, forming a series of light curtains to protect everyone. However, the power of the explosion was too great, and the light curtains shattered under the impact of the explosion.

The defensive magic weapons on Li Tong and Ma Xianhong were of new type and relatively tough, but they were also crumbling under this impact.

The aftermath of the explosion swept over, and the scorching temperature was enough to singe a person's hair even through the protection of defensive magic weapons.

Li Tong's face turned ugly. He knew that the strength of the magic weapon alone could not withstand the explosion. Once the defense was broken, all of them would face a life-and-death crisis.

"What should we do?" There was a tremor in Zhang Chulan's voice.

Li Tong didn't say anything, but a trace of determination flashed in his eyes. He knew that there was only one way out.

Li Tong took out a jade bottle from the storage space and crushed it with force.

"boom!"

The moment the jade bottle shattered, a stream of blood spurted out and instantly filled the air.

This was Li Tong's foolproof plan. He had anticipated that there might be such a crisis, so he prepared this. This was his blood, and also his secret technique.

Li Tong stood in the ruins, holding the test tube that had just been used to extract blood from Goudan. A hint of determination flashed in his eyes, and he raised the test tube high, muttering something.

"Dragon blood is the medium, the spirit of language, protect me!"

As he cast the spell, the blood in the test tube seemed to be activated, emitting a faint golden light. An invisible protective shield was formed instantly, covering everyone.

At this moment, a loud bang shook the sky. The originally luxurious villa was reduced to ruins in the explosion, flames shot up into the sky, and heat waves rolled in.

"Oh my God, what an explosion!" Zhang Chulan exclaimed.

Li Tong gritted his teeth, his protective shield trembled slightly under the impact of the explosion, but it still withstood most of the power. He felt a strong internal force surging in his body, which was obviously caused by the excessive consumption of the Dragon Language Spirit.

"It was a close call. Fortunately, I had dragon blood to protect me." Li Tong said, panting.

The aftermath of the explosion was still continuing, affecting the entire community. The surrounding buildings were shaking in the explosion, and dust and debris were flying everywhere.

"Is everyone okay?" Li Tong asked loudly.

"I'm fine, it's just too hot!" Zhang Chulan said, wiping the sweat from his face.

"Where are Monk Yongjue and the others?" someone asked worriedly.

Li Tong shook his head, indicating that he didn't know. The explosion just now was too sudden, and they had no time to react.

"Qu Tong is such a cruel woman!" Zhang Chulan said gritting his teeth.

"Yes, she wants to catch us all in one fell swoop." Li Tong sighed.

Everyone fell silent, their hearts filled with anger and helplessness towards Qu Tong.

"By the way, Li Tong, how wide is the range of the explosion you just mentioned?" Zhang Chulan suddenly asked.

Li Tong pondered for a moment and said, "I'm afraid the entire community has been affected."

"What? Then Mr. Zhao and the others would also..." Zhang Chulan's face suddenly turned pale.

Mr. Zhao is the director of Nadutong, and their action this time also received the secret support of Mr. Zhao. If Mr. Zhao was also killed in this explosion, it would undoubtedly be a huge blow to them.

"We have to find them quickly!" Zhang Chulan said anxiously.

He looked around, and his eyes finally settled on the basement of the villa. That might be where Qu Tong was hiding. She had many burrows, so she must have built a safe house here. Li Tong took a deep breath and made up his mind.

However, his body was not as strong as before. He felt exhausted after running around for a long time. He hesitated, should he continue to track Qu Tong, or go back to rest?
Just as he was hesitating, a hand suddenly stretched out from the ground, breaking the silence around him. Li Tong's pupils shrank, and he quickly took out the sharp knife and stared at the hand vigilantly. The hand slowly moved upwards, and a middle-aged man emerged from the ground.

Li Tong recognized him at a glance. It was the man who followed Qu Tong before. He was shocked and thought to himself that something was wrong. Sure enough, the man rushed towards them as soon as he appeared.

Everyone attacked, but the man dodged every attack like a ghost. His speed was so fast that it was dazzling. Li Tong was even more anxious when he saw this. He knew that if they continued like this, they would not be the opponent of the man at all.

Suddenly, the man turned around and rushed towards Li Tong. Li Tong's heart tightened and he quickly swung his knife to meet him. The tips of their knives collided in the air, making a harsh metal collision sound.

Li Tong pushed the man back a few steps with all his strength. He took the opportunity to catch his breath and shouted to the man, "Who are you? Why are you working for Qu Tong?"

The man didn't say anything, but just stared at Li Tong coldly. There was no emotion in his eyes, as if he was a puppet without a soul.

Li Tong's heart sank. He knew that he could not get any useful information from this man. He could only rely on his own strength to track down Qu Tong's whereabouts.

He took a deep breath and rushed towards the man again with his knife. This time, he used all his strength. As the knife flashed, the two figures intertwined.

After a fierce battle, Li Tong finally found the man's weakness. He chopped the man down with his sword. (End of this chapter)
