Chapter 2145: Disappointment!
"Now that you know, do you need me to say more?" the middle-aged man put away the Elder Token and said lightly.
It can be seen from the middle-aged man's expression and tone that he does not give face to the captain of the guard of the City Lord's Mansion at all.
Seeing the middle-aged man walking past him, the captain of the guard hesitated, but the middle-aged man holding the Elder Token of the Flying Dragon Comprising House was real.
In addition, according to the information he had, the people they needed to arrest were basically in the period of integration, and two of them were in the early stage of Mahayana.
And he can't see through the realm of this middle-aged man, but if he can become an elder of the Flying Dragon Trading Company, even if his strength is not in the late Mahayana period, he is afraid that it is not far from the late Mahayana stage.
"Elder Xiao, is this really the elder of your Flying Dragon Firm?" Looking at the middle-aged man's back, the captain of the guard didn't dare to stop him anymore.
"Didn't you already see his Elder Token just now?"
Originally, he was just guessing, but when he saw the elder token in the middle-aged man's hand, he completely confirmed Cheng Yu's identity. This time, there was only one elder with him, but now another elder has emerged, who is this person not Cheng Yu?
"By the way, what do you want to do here?" the middle-aged man walked less than three feet away, and suddenly turned to the captain of the guard again.
"The people wanted by our City Lord's Mansion are on the treasure ship of your Flying Dragon Firm, we want to get on the boat to arrest these wanted criminals, but Elder Xiao doesn't agree!" Seeing the middle-aged man ask, the captain of the guard said truthfully.
"Elder Xiao, since you are the person who is the main person of the city, you might as well give the city lord this face and let them get on the boat. The middle-aged man looked at Elder Xiao and said.
Hearing the middle-aged man's words, the captain of the guard was immediately happy, and his face was full of gratitude when he looked at the middle-aged man, and at the same time, his favor for him also increased a lot.
"This ......" Elder Xiao was a little puzzled, he was sure that this middle-aged man must be Cheng Yu.
However, now that he is out, then the rest should still be on board. If he let these men on the ship now, wouldn't that expose all his own companions?
"Thank you, Elder!" the captain of the guard said, clenching his fists.
"Don't thank me just yet, you can get on the ship, but I want to remind you that I have been on the ship just now, and there is no one else on this ship except the crew of our Wyvern Firm. After the middle-aged man said lightly, he turned around and left again.
The middle-aged man's words made everyone stunned, especially those who were in the escort team, they saw a group of people return to the ship with their own eyes, how could this guy say that there were no outsiders on this ship?
They didn't believe it at all, it must have been this guy who said it on purpose, thinking that they wouldn't get on the boat and arrest people.
"Elder Xiao, I wonder if we can get on the ship now?" said the captain of the escort as he looked at Elder Xiao with some smugness.
"In that case, then please!" Elder Xiao waved his hand and got out of the way.
He had now gradually understood that the middle-aged man's words were clearly what he had just said to him. There was no one else on the ship except the crew of the Flying Dragon Firm, so Cheng Yu's companions were no longer on board.
He remembered that the crew had told him that there was an ancient divine beast on Cheng Yu's body, although the crew member couldn't say it clearly, but judging from his experience, it was not on Cheng Yu's body, but Cheng Yu had a space magic weapon.
Since it is a space law, it also means that Cheng Yu can store living things in this space magic weapon. Therefore, Cheng Yu's companions must have been stored in the space magic weapon by Cheng Yu just like that ancient divine beast.
Therefore, there was no need for him to embarrass these people from the City Lord's Mansion anymore, they wouldn't be able to find it anyway.
At this time, he admired Cheng Yu's methods a little, originally seeing Cheng Yu and them so young, he still had some doubts in his heart, whether it would be in vain.
Now seeing that Cheng Yu actually left openly through his disguise and resolved this conflict, it seems that the president's vision is indeed not wrong.
Since there is no need to have a head-on conflict with the people of the City Lord's Mansion, this is also a good thing for their Flying Dragon Firm.
Although they may not be afraid of the City Lord's Mansion, they don't want to make too much trouble. After all, their Feilong Merchant House is just a businessman, and the people who are a merchant pay attention to harmony and make money.
It's really going to fall out with the City Lord's Mansion, but in fact, whether it's the City Lord's Mansion or the Flying Dragon Firm, it's actually a loss.
The city lord's palace guards and his party excitedly boarded the ship to search, but when they came out of the cabin again, the captain of the guard had a black face, and when they followed, it was completely two people.
"I don't know what the captain can find out?" Elder Xiao looked at the face of the captain of the guard, and knew that what Cheng Yu said was true, there was indeed no one else on this ship except for the crew of their Flying Dragon Firm.
Seeing the gloating expression of the Flying Dragon Comptoir, the captain of the guard was even more unhappy.
"Elder Xiao, I suspect that your Flying Dragon Firm has deliberately hidden these people, I hope Elder Xiao can cooperate with me and call out all the crew members of your ship, I need to check them one by one!"
"This captain, you can't talk nonsense. Our Flying Dragon Firm and your City Lord's Mansion have always been important partners in business, and the friendship between us also has a deep foundation, if your words reach the ears of your City Lord, and then the business between us will be ruined, this crime, you are a captain of the guard, I don't know if you can bear it?" Elder Xiao said righteously.
Anyway, now that the person is no longer on the ship, he is more confident, and he doesn't have to worry about it at all.
"I ......" Hearing this, the captain of the guard suddenly felt a little lacking in confidence.
"However, our Flying Dragon Firm has always behaved in a proper manner, and since the captain doesn't believe us, in order to avoid suspicion, we will reluctantly agree to the captain's request. Go, call out all the crew members on the ship, and let this captain check it well!" Elder Xiao said with a faint smile.
Several crew members answered, and hurried back to the ship to inform all the crew members to come out.
In a few moments, all the crew members were called to the deck, and there were one hundred and fifty-two crew members, standing together in order.
When the captain of the guard saw Elder Xiao so calm and relaxed, he chuckled in his heart, and suddenly felt as if he had been fooled. But where he was fooled, he couldn't figure it out.
However, just from this Elder Xiao's expression, he could already guess that there were definitely no wanted criminals among these crew members.
However, even then, he had to make a second confirmation. So, let his subordinates take the portraits and compare them with these crew members one by one.
As expected, none of the 152 crew members resembled the person in the portrait.
"Has the captain found the person you were looking for?" said Elder Xiao with a faint smile.
"Elder Xiao, can you let us enter the cabin to look for it again?" Although he had known that this was the result for a long time, his face was still ugly when the situation was confirmed.
