Chapter 468, Cave?
Although the army of demonic beasts has retreated, the entire Devil Cry City is only in ruins.
The only thing to be thankful for is that the Great Array of Protectors has not suffered much damage, it is just that its energy has been exhausted.
As for the collapse of the walls of the house, it was too easy for all the monks in the city to recover from it.
While the other monks in the city were busy repairing Ghost Cry City, Li Xiao and the four Distraction Stage Sea Clans in the city sat together in the city lord's council hall and looked at each other speechlessly.
Looking at the silent four, Li Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly. He knew that they were all afraid of themselves. Especially now that he is still on the side of the ghost sea.
In desperation, he had no choice but to break this silence.
"Now that the beast tide has receded, do you want to continue the battle that was interrupted earlier?"
Hearing Li Xiao say this, the others looked at each other. In the end, Han You answered: "Dare to ask Brother Li if he wants to support the Ghost Sea?"
Li Xiao didn't answer, and also asked rhetorically: "Dare to ask, if I don't care." In the end, let you join forces to destroy the sea of ghosts and his people. When the same beast tide comes next time, will you be able to resist it?"
It was Qinghai who answered Li Xiao, and he said very confidently: "You can rest assured that such a large-scale beast tide usually occurs once in ten years." ”
"The next time I come, I'm confident I'll find enough people to defend Devil May Cry. ”
"Oh, what are you going to do if they're a day or two late this time?"
Qiu Lingyu replied: "This time it was a complete accident. Under normal circumstances, such large-scale and organized attacks would not take place until at least next year. ”
This made Li Xiao even more curious: "So, are you sure you can find the same number of people in a year?"
As soon as Li Xiao asked, Qinghai and the others looked at the sea of ghosts with a sneer. Seeing this, Ghost Sea just snorted coldly.
Seeing this situation, Li Xiao combined with the situation he had seen before, suddenly looked at the ghost sea with a smile on his face, and then asked.
"I've heard Feng Xiaoxiao say that this relatively safe passage in the storm area was created by the Sea Clan with a lot of effort. ”
"And these temporary stops were also arranged by the Sea Emperor. In other words, this also belongs to the rule of the Sea Emperor. ”
"But when I first arrived, I felt that this place was completely a chaotic place, and it was the other party of the city lord who collected money. ”
"At that time, I thought it was caused by the city lord killing all the original people and occupying the mountain as the king. Now it seems that I was overthinking. ”
Seeing that Li Xiao had already said it, Guihai did not deny it, but said: "It is indeed three things here." As long as you can hold the city, then pay the tax every year. As for who is the lord of the city, it doesn't matter to the Sea Emperor. ”
Hearing him say this, Li Xiao suddenly looked at Qinghai and the others with a smile on his face, and didn't stop until he looked the three of them a little uncomfortable.
He took a deep breath, and then asked, "It turns out that this kind of problem is none of my business, and it doesn't matter if you live or die." But I can't help but be a little curious. ”
"There must be many advantages to becoming a city lord, such as the entire city being under your control, having a large number of cultivation resources and the best cultivation conditions. ”
"But there are three of you. But there is only one position for the city lord. If the Ghost Sea gives up the position of city lord, which of you will be the city lord?"
However, Li Xiao didn't expect that his words were like igniting gunpowder, and the three of them in Qinghai instantly looked at the ghost sea with angry faces.
At the same time, Han Yu roared angrily: "We are not because of this city lord position at all, just to kill him, a shameless villain." ”
Li Xiao guessed that there was a story between them, and his eyes lit up when he heard this. Immediately sat up slightly straight.
Sure enough, Han Yu immediately began to tell the story. But the first sentence made Li Xiao couldn't help but be taken aback.
I only heard him say: "We gave him the position of the lord of the city, but what did they do to us?" You let him speak. ”
Li Xiao looked at the sea of ghosts with a surprised expression, but when he saw that he had always been calm, he was also excited at this time.
He also yelled, "What have I done to you?" For so many years, I have supported you in everything. If it weren't for my help, your gang would have been like this?"
"If it weren't for me sharing my cultivation resources with you, you would have been able to cultivate to this point so quickly. ”
"You've always blamed me for being self-conscious. Have you ever thought that if it weren't for me, Devil May Cry would still have a place for us?"
"Not to mention that other people come to compete for the position of this city lord, let's just say that the beast tide, if it weren't for my desperate cultivation to improve my strength, the beast tide of decades ago would have been finished long ago. ”
Hearing him say this, Qinghai snorted coldly. said with a disdainful face: "Although we were friends halfway back then, we were like brothers and sisters, and we wandered around. ”
Later, by chance, they snatched the position of the city lord of Devil Cry City together. At that time, we felt that you had the best leadership talents, so we made you the lord of the city. ”
"We thought we would be able to enjoy happiness together and practice together in peace and stability. ”
"As a result, you were good, and you got all the good things alone. Regardless of the cultivation exercises, cultivation resources and treasures. We're all taking the rest from you. ”
"Back then, our strength was almost the same, and although your talent was slightly higher, it wasn't much higher than ours. ”
"And now, even if Ling Yu and I join forces, we are not your opponents, even if the three of them are together, we can only barely suppress you. ”
Hearing him say this, Onikai sighed.
"In order to increase my cultivation speed and reach a higher realm as soon as possible, I did have some good materials left. ”
"However, I also did it to improve my strength quickly. ”
"You know for yourselves, as the lord of the city, I want to keep this city safe. Without strong strength, how can I lead you to defend the beast tide again and again. ”
"It's not that I don't want to give it to you. But those materials, the effect you get, is definitely not as good as for me. It is even likely to be wasted. ”
"I know you've always had problems with me because of this, so you said you wanted to form your own snobbery, and I did everything I could to help you. ”
"But since you formed a gang, you've been working against me at every turn. Wish you wanted to kill me. ”
Seeing them arguing like this, if they continue to quarrel, maybe they will have to do it again.
So Li Xiao felt interrupted and said, "A few people stop for a while and listen to a few words." ”
Seeing Li Xiao speak, several other people also gave up arguing and turned their eyes to him.
Li Xiao cleared his throat, and then said, "Since the ghost city lord has his own troubles, then a few of them will believe his words. ”
"However, with the current strength of the ghost city lord, I am afraid that it will not be an overnight thing to go further. ”
"In that case, why don't the ghost city lord share his good things with everyone and improve everyone's strength. ”
"This will not improve the strength of the entire Devil Cry City, so that the loss will be smaller when resisting the beast tide in the future. ”
"And it can also prove the hardships that the city lord said before, and resolve the contradictions between the two sides. Why not?"
