Chapter 19: Conversation
Ye Shan is indeed very strong, as one of the two masters of the God Refining Realm in Falling Rock City.
But when he met another master of the God Refining Realm, the City Lord of Falling Rock City, he definitely didn't dare to be presumptuous.
On the contrary, he will definitely coax. Because even if he lent Hayama ten guts, he wouldn't dare to offend the Falling Stone City Lord in the slightest.
Back then, Chu Ke's father, Ling Xiao, was also a master of the God Refining Realm, and there were a total of three major God Refining Realms in Falling Stone City.
When Ling Xiao was still there, Ye Shan and him had a very good relationship, at least on the surface, but the Falling Stone City Lord had no worries about the two of them joining forces to form a faction.
Why? Because of absolute confidence in strength.
It is rumored that the masters of the entire Falling Rock City are not as powerful as Kong Fangui alone.
Chu Ke was skeptical about this before, but now it seems that the rumors are true.
Because of this masked man, or rather Hayama, he has already coaxed.
He chased after him all the way until now, but when he arrived in front of the City Lord's Mansion, Chu Ke didn't leave, and he didn't dare to act rashly.
I didn't even dare to throw a throwing knife like before.
Chu Ke stood in front of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion and did not move, and the masked man did not dare to move him, and the two confronted each other for a long time.
Finally, a voice sounded in Chu Ke's ears.
"You're lucky, and you'll live a few more days, and I'll come back to you another day. ”
As soon as the voice dispersed, Chu Ke saw the masked man jump up and disappear into the darkness of the city.
"Whew!"
As soon as the masked man left, Chu Ke took a long breath and sat down in front of the City Lord's Mansion on the steps.
If it weren't for the fact that he thought of coming to the City Lord's Mansion in a hurry, he would be afraid that he would be more than lucky tonight.
Now he is more than enough to deal with the late stage of Qi refining, but when he encounters the God Refining Realm, it always seems that something is missing.
In the end, the foundation is still too weak.
After resting for a while, Chu Ke decided to go home.
The masked man has been here once, I'm afraid he won't come again, right?
If he went back, he would be waiting for him in the Ling Mansion, and it would be a big deal to run to the City Lord's Mansion again.
Anyway, with the "Three Steps of the New Moon" in his body, shuttling back and forth in the streets and alleys of the city, Na Yeshan will definitely not be able to catch up with him.
Just as Chu Ke was about to get up and leave, suddenly a voice sounded in his head.
"Let's go inside. ”
Chu Ke's eyes widened, this voice was very familiar to him, it was the voice of Kong Fangui, the lord of Falling Stone City on the first day of Dabi's start!
Turning to look at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, he heard only a creak, and the gate was opened from the inside.
The door opened, and a man stepped out from behind it.
With the help of the candlelight, Chu Ke saw the face of the person who came, and the person who came was Leng Huitang, who had met him several times.
"Lord Leng. Chu Ke bowed his hand and saluted.
"The lord of the Chu family is polite, come, the city lord is invited. ”
Under the leadership of Leng Huitang, Chu Ke entered the City Lord's Mansion and was taken all the way to the outside of a wing room in the City Lord's Mansion.
"My lord, Chu Ke, the head of the Chu family, brought it. Leng Huitang said respectfully to the door outside the house.
"Let him in. A faint voice came from inside, it was Kong Fangui's voice.
As soon as Leng Huitang said goodbye to Chu Ke, he turned around and left.
As soon as Leng Huitang left, the door of this room creaked open.
Chu Ke saw that there was a person sitting in the room, holding a teacup in one hand and a roll of bamboo slips in the other, reading with relish in the candlelight.
This person is none other than Kong Fangui, the lord of Falling Rock City.
"Chu Ke has seen the city lord. Chu Ke stepped into the threshold and bowed to Kong Fangui.
As soon as he spoke, Chu Ke suddenly felt a twitch in his heart, and there was a strange feeling that he immediately walked all over his body.
"Excuse me, come and sit down. Kong Fangui looked up and saw that Chu Ke was coming, and immediately put the bamboo slip to the side.
"Oh, this paper book is still really expensive, I am reluctant to buy it, so I have to buy some bamboo slips, haha......" Kong Fangui teased, so that Chu Ke does not feel too restrained.
Kong Fangui let himself in, and Chu Ke immediately ignored the strange feeling and walked into the room.
However, Chu Ke really has nothing to be restrained, the scene of more than a dozen immortal venerables in the same room is common, how can the city lord of a small border city make him worried?
"I don't know what the city lord wants Chu Ke to come here late at night?" Chu Ke asked straight to the point.
"It's not that I'm looking for you, it's that you're looking for me. Kong Fangui looked at Chu Ke and said, "Don't you want to know why that Ye Shan suddenly wanted to come over and assassinate you tonight?"
Chu Ke was shocked when he heard this, how could this Kong Fangui be sure that the masked man was Ye Shan?
"Don't be surprised, I already know something about Hayama. Kong Fangui said, "You forgot the letter I gave you? I already knew that your parents were killed by Ye Shan, but there is no evidence, so it is difficult to investigate him directly." ”
Falling Stone City is a city belonging to the Great Qin Kingdom, no matter how much the lord of a city covers the sky and makes a speech in the city.
However, all major matters involving finance, taxation, human life, and so on, must produce evidence, and must act in accordance with the law.
Otherwise, it is a deception and will be punished.
Kong Fangui is very strong, so strong that the strong masters of the entire Falling Rock City are not his opponents combined.
But in Daqin, there are more people who are stronger than him, and even if he has the heart to punish Ye Shan, it will be difficult to do anything without evidence.
"The city lord is bothered about his parents' affairs!" Chu Ke said in a deep voice.
"Alas. Kong Fangui sighed, "Chu Ke, don't worry." Your father worked hard before and after his death, and he was my right-hand man. I was cut off by Hayama's arm, so I naturally won't stop on this matter. Your parents' affairs, I will definitely give them justice. ”
"Thank you, City Lord!" Chu Ke nodded slightly.
Through that letter, he knew that in the past year, Kong Fangui's investigation of Ye Shan had never stopped.
The city lord's words were not perfunctory, but true feelings.
"I just called you over, but I was actually here for another matter. Kong Fangui said.
"What's the matter?" Chu Ke asked.
"Secret Realm. Kong Fangui said two words that made Chu Ke excited.
"There's something I want to tell you about the secret realm. Kong Fangui said.
Chu Ke immediately drew his attention.
"If you can win the first place in the big competition this time, I will give you a chance. Kong Fangui said, "I'll give you a place to enter the secret realm, you have to work hard." ”
Chu Ke was overjoyed in his heart, if he could get a place to enter the secret realm, maybe he would have the opportunity to get a large number of genius earth treasures, and even spirit stones.
"Thank you City Lord for the opportunity, Chu Ke must work hard!" Chu Ke said solemnly.
In his heart, he was guessing what level of secret realm this secret realm would be.
Chu Ke now actually hoped that the level of this secret realm would not be too high, because with his current strength, he couldn't do much in the high-level secret realm.
"Do you know the reward for the first place in this competition?" Kong Fangui suddenly asked.
"I know, it's a century-old nine-leaf era!" Chu Ke said, this century-old nine-leaf treatment is also his goal.
"Then do you know that this Nine Leaf Harvest was obtained from a secret realm?" Kong Fangui smiled faintly.
