"City Lord, I believe that you will not give up on us. However, how can Wutong City stop the Star Killing Army?"
A sentence resounded within the crowd, instantly causing the people who had originally received Xian Yun'er's reply to clamour once more. Everyone looked at Xian Yun'er fearfully.
This matter concerned the Star Killer Army. Xian Yun'er had originally sealed off the news and prohibited the insiders from telling the people in the city, so as to avoid unnecessary panic.
Unfortunately, this news had been leaked by someone. It had already spread in the city yesterday, and today, the people had gathered here. Someone had brought up this topic again, and the scene could not be controlled.
"This. . . "
Xian Yun'er's expression was ugly. She could feign civility with Qiu Langjun and the others, but facing these people that she had personally saved, it was difficult for her to lie.
It was just that the truth was too cruel, so she didn't know how to say it out loud.
On the contrary, it was Yu Lingzi. When he saw the person who brought up the matter of the Star Kill Army, his pupils could not help but shrink as he suddenly looked at the officer surnamed Niu beside him.
The person who had raised the question, and even the accompanying servant of the officer surnamed Niu, had been caught by the sharp-eyed Yu Lingzi even though he had immediately concealed himself the moment the servant had appeared and shouted.
"Rain Guardian, I am doing this for Wutong City as well as for the people. "
Seeing that the matter had been exposed, that official surnamed Niu felt nervous as he hurriedly smiled bitterly and whispered helplessly to Yu Lingzi.
Yu Lingzi was a 3-star cultivator as well as the strongest expert within the city apart from Xian Yun'er, commanding the defending troops of Wutong City. As such, he was called the guardian of Wutong City.
"Hmph!"
Yu Lingzi glared at the official surnamed Niu, but there was nothing he could do about it. What the other party was worried about was the truth. The fact that the other party had stirred up public opinion and forced Xian Yun'er to accept the challenge was that they were bound to coexist and perish together with Wutong City.
"You don't understand the Immortal City Lord at all. She is so kind. If you don't do this, she will vow to protect Wutong City to the death. "
Yu Lingzi cursed hatefully.
Xian Yun-er did not know about these insider matters as she hesitated for a long time now. Finally, she still knit her delicate brows tightly as she said, "Everyone, rest assured. I will think of a way. Even if I do not find any assistance in the end, I will still live and die with everyone. "
These words were spoken out of their hearts. When the people heard this, they calmed down, but some of them were even more agitated.
"Your Excellency City Lord, I heard that the Immortals of the Jupiter Sect have arrived. Why didn't they beg the Jupiter Sect to protect Wutong City?"
"That's right. Your Excellency City Lord, only the Immortal Masters of the Wood Star Sect can save Wutong City. "
"There is still a chance of survival. Immortal City Lord must grasp this chance!"
The crowd shouted. Qiu Langjun, who was following behind Xian Yun'er, frowned unhappily.
"Hmph! A group of ants! What right does the Jupiter Sect have to protect all of you?"
Qiu Langjun felt great disdain in his heart. These lowly commoners were ugly to the extreme, yet they were still hoping for the Wood Star Sect to protect Wutong City despite the risk of being attacked by the Horned Demon Race. This was simply a pipe dream.
It was just that with so many commoners gathered here, Qiu Langjun could not directly say what he was thinking. At this moment, Liu Jiu's eyes turned and he sneakily moved closer.
"Senior Qiu. "
Liu Jiu whispered into his ear, "We can ignore these people, but Senior Sister Xian is a kind person. She will definitely take care of them. "
"Of course I know that. Do I need you to tell me?"
Qiu Langjun looked at Liu Jiu unhappily. Wasn't this guy quite smart? Could it be that he didn't understand this logic and similarly understood it, so he still needed him to remind him?
"No, Senior Brother Qiu, you've misunderstood my meaning. I mean, we can use these commoners to force Senior Sister Xian to submit to Senior Brother and wait until the rice is cooked and the rice is cooked. At that time, Senior Sister Xian will still have to obediently listen to Senior Brother's words?"
Liu Jiu hurriedly said.
Hearing this, Qiu Langjun's eyes lit up. He patted Liu Jiu's shoulder in admiration and said, "Junior Brother Liu knows me. This is a wonderful plan!"
Without saying another word, Qiu Langjun took a step forward and arrived before the crowd. He said with a clear voice, "Don't make things difficult for Senior Sister Xian. I'm a guest of the Jupiter Sect. "
As soon as these words were spoken, The crowd boiled once more as they all fell to their knees, "Immortals of the Jupiter Sect, please protect Wutong City. . . Otherwise, we are all finished. "
"Exalted Immortal, Wutong City is the hope of all of us. Immortal Master, please help us. "
Disdain flashed through Qiu Langjun's eyes, but a troubled look appeared on his face as he said: "It is not that I am unwilling to protect Wutong City, but rather that I am helpless. There are also many powers surrounding the Wood Star Sect eyeing us covetously. If we were to act to protect Wutong City, the Wood Star Sect would only end up in trouble. "
Having said that, Qiu Langjun paused for a moment. Looking at the despairing gazes of the people, he laughed inwardly, saying: "But. . . "
"But what is it?"
All the citizens widened their eyes and stared at Qiu Langjun, afraid that they would miss their only chance of survival.
"If the City Lord and I are connected by marriage and become members of my Qiu Clan, then I will have a great chance of requesting assistance from the sect. "
Qiu Langjun finally revealed his scheme at this moment. Even though he had displayed his ambition, he didn't say anything to kill Qiu Langjun. He only had great hope. When that time came, Jupiter wouldn't send anyone to help. He could just casually say that the sect didn't agree to solve the problem.
"Shameless!"
Yu Lingzi could not help but look at Qiu Langjun. He clenched his fists tightly, and his nails were about to be dug into his flesh.
He could already tell that this was Qiu Langjun threatening Xian Yun-er with the common people. Earlier, Qiu Langjun was still pretending to be a dog. Now that his fox tail was revealed, he did not expect it to be so disgusting.
However, the civilians were already scared out of their wits by the Star Kill Army. They wanted to grab hold of this chance of survival. Even if they saw through Qiu Langjun's scheme, they did not care and looked at Xian Yuner one after another.
"City Lord, for us, you'll obey Immortal Master. "
"That's right. Sir Immortal Master looks like a talented person and is a match for the City Lord. Other than this Sir Immortal Master, who else is worthy of being the City Lord?"
"Wuwuwu, City Lord. . . I beg you, please obey Sir Immortal Master. Our lives are all on you. "
The civilians were screaming and crying, but at this moment, they were trying to force Xian Yun'er into a corner. It was as if they were trying to trap her in a fire.
They knew in their hearts that Qiu Langjun was using their hands to threaten Xian Yun'er, yet they could only do as Xian Yun'er wished for in order to live. Even if Xian Yun'er was their saviour, in the face of death, everything was insignificant.
"All of you. . . "
Xian Yun'er's throat rolled. Even though Jupiter's Sect refused to help, Xian Yun'er did not feel despair, nor did she think of abandoning the people. Instead, she prepared to bring the people to flee everywhere, and live and die together with them.
However, at this moment, when she saw these people that she personally saved, who didn't care about her own wishes and forced her to leave Qiu Langjun, Xian Yun'er's heart was deathly silent.
