C1256 The City Lord's Trouble
He wasn't willing to be someone who broke his promise.
"This matter, I know what to do. Please rest assured City Master, this humble one will definitely not involve the people of the Profound Sky Continent. " Ye Feng who was cupping his hands had a determined expression.
At most, he would just leave. Now that the Divine Martial big was gone, there was always a place for him.
Since he did not contribute much to Starlight City, City Lord Hsing being able to do this step could already be considered as taking care of him. Ye Feng was also not willing to become a burden on City Lord's Mansion.
After hearing this, the fatigue on City Lord Hsing's face deepened as he sighed, "Ye Feng, it's not that this old man isn't willing to keep you, it's just that my City Lord's Mansion … Currently, you are in a precarious situation. If I force you to stay, even you will be delayed by then. "
"Hmm? Your Excellency City Lord... What do you mean by that? "
Surprised, Ye Feng quickly asked.
City Lord's Mansion were people who represented and governed Starlight City in the royal family. Even if their Three Sects of Extreme Fire Fort were stronger than City Lord's Mansion, they would not dare to do anything to City Lord's Mansion.
"Ai …" It is also my fault for being stubborn, disdainful of trying to curry favor with the influential people of the Upper City. I only managed to get my hands on the city lord position with my own means, but due to my innate talent in martial arts, I am afraid that my path of martial arts will be stopped at the semi-sage realm. "
"Extreme Fire Fort, Ning Shentong, has always coveted the position of City Lord, but because his cultivation is slightly lower than this old man's, he was able to forcefully hold it in."
After saying all that, City Lord Hsing's face revealed a bitter expression, and his eyes revealed regret. "Back then when the three sects made their move on White Tiger Sect, this old man was currently trapped by this matter and was unable to stop it in time. With Bai Hucheng at the Starlight City, even they would not be able to control the three sects, it's a pity that they won't be able to cause too much of a stir … "
"Your Excellency City Lord acts in an open and aboveboard manner. There is no need to blame yourself." Ye Feng comforted her.
"That is true, but White Tiger Sect have already been destroyed by the three sects, so the whereabouts of Bai Hucheng is unknown. The three sects no longer have much fear towards my City Lord's Mansion. This old man has received news that Ning Shentong has established a relationship with a senior official of the Upper City. As long as the time is right, there is a high chance that he will covet the City Lord's position. "
"At that time, the three sects will join hands and the order will be issued. Before this old man can react, the City Lord of Starlight City will change …"
City Lord Hsing's voice was a little tired as he continued speaking. It was true that he had one or two supporters in the Upper City, but since he was in the light and the opponent was in the dark, no one knew when the Three Sects of Extreme Fire Fort would force him into a position, they naturally fell into a disadvantageous position.
The most difficult thing was that with City Lord Hsing's strength, he could not do anything to the three sects.
No wonder Mo Gaokun dared to say that "even the City Lord can't change his mind", he already understood the meaning behind those words, and was probably already aware of the truth.
It was even possible that Ding Mo was well aware of the Three Sects' schemes.
With that in mind, Ye Feng muttered to himself for a while, then slowly told City Lord Hsing all the information he heard from Mo Gaokun and the others.
Boom! *
The more he listened, the uglier City Lord Hsing's face became. Suddenly, the teacup in his hand exploded, and the tea water evaporated in a flash, turning into a light vapor.
Ye Feng was shocked, he retreated a few steps quickly and managed to stabilize his body.
"So that's how it is!"
"Hmph …" So it turned out that they had already been unable to hold back and had secretly launched an attack? Buy my City Lord's Mansion Manager? Hmph, you sure have a good plan. "
Suddenly, the slightly exhausted old man disappeared. Standing in front of Ye Feng, he had once again become the lofty Starlight City Master, dignified and inviolable.
After a moment, City Lord Hsing slapped the table and said coldly: "Ye Feng, you don't need to leave, let the Water Clan come in large numbers. This old man would like to see, even if you are married to the Water Clan, within your Starlight City, who can cause a ruckus?"
"This old man would like to take this opportunity to see the entire Starlight City. Whoever has the heart of this old man, who would disobey this old man and secretly cause trouble for me …"
This...
The City Lord Hsing was making use of this opportunity to sing a big play. Very clearly, the movements secretly made by the three sects had completely ignited the anger accumulated by the City Lord Hsing over the years.
Half Saint Realm.
This was a tiger that had been asleep for many years. Once it woke up, no one knew what would happen.
"This humble one … Accompany Your Excellency City Lord in singing this play … "
Ye Feng happily agreed, and then turned and reminded him: "Then Ding Mo, City Lord, you need to be extra careful."
"Eating external things …" Let's keep him alive for now. Once this matter is resolved, this old man will settle his old grudge with him! "
After raising Ding Mo for so many years, he had painstakingly nurtured Ding Mo, and in exchange, he had repaid the debt of gratitude and hatred, which would make anyone extremely angry.
However, he could not do anything to Ding Mo at the moment, in case he startled the snake by hitting the grass.
"Alright, you can go now …" In the past few days, this old man still has some matters to take care of. I'm afraid I don't have the time to pay attention to you. "
"Ye Feng, you be careful." City Lord Hsing frowned, his expression somewhat agitated.
Ye Feng clasped his hands together, but didn't immediately turn around and leave. Instead, he probingly asked in a small voice: "Has the city lord encountered any trouble?
In Ye Feng's memories, City Lord Hsing always had the attitude of an expert who wouldn't change his expression even if Mount Tai were to collapse.
The anger just now had something to do with the three sects and Ding Mo's betrayal.
City Lord Hsing did not say a word, he wanted to say something, but then sighed again.
In this matter, even he, a single Half Saint Stage Expert, was helpless, what could a mere Void Stage Martial Cultivator think of?
"Forget it, you should just go down and focus on your cultivation. This matter …" You can't help it. "
"If the mayor trusts me, then feel free to say it." Ye Feng did not give up, it was not because he wanted to show off, but because he had suffered too much from City Lord Hsing's kindness, and only wanted to do his best to repay this debt.
Seeing Ye Feng's determined look, the City Lord Hsing gave a bitter laugh before replying, "My City Lord's Mansion's Guardian Beast encountered some problems, I'm afraid … "He's going to die."
"Guardian Beast? What level of beast was this? There's such a thing? "
Ye Feng was startled, and immediately had interest.
Before this, he had never heard of any Guardian Beast.
"A hundred years ago, this old man coincidentally took in a Star-Moon Beast from an Ancient Secret Realm. Due to having some connections with this old man, this old man managed to bring back City Lord's Mansion for protection. then you will become the city's guardian beast. "
"The Star-Moon Beast would transform once in a while, just like the Phoenix Nirvana. Every time it transformed, it would become even stronger, and of course, because of this, this process would only result in a slim chance of survival. "If you can't handle it, you will die …"
Following the words of the City Lord Hsing, Ye Feng asked with doubt: "Could it be … It just so happens that the day of the Star-Moon Beast's transformation has arrived? "
"That's right. It has already been going on for several days … "Sigh, this time, I probably won't be able to hold on."
City Lord Hsing's face was filled with unwillingness to part. After hundreds of years of being together with him, Star-Moon Beast had become his best friend for the longest time in his life.
Ye Feng muttered to himself, Demonic Beast were only Demonic Beast after all. Even if they had opened up a few Intelligence, it was a pity that they had fallen, but since they were Guardian Beasts, they should be able to find other substitutes.
