"What deal does the city lord want to make?" asked Yu Chang'an.

"I want plane-time crystallization. Xiao Quan said bluntly: "If you can give me ten pieces of space-time crystals, I can tell you the route back to the Evergreen Domain, and if you can give me twenty pieces, I can even send someone to escort you back." ”

"Time and space crystallization?" Yu Changan showed an embarrassed expression, as if Xiao Quan was going to cut his own flesh.

But in fact, Yu Changan didn't know what the space-time crystallization was, and there was no news of this thing in his memory at all, just looking at Xiao Quan's appearance, it was obvious that the space-time crystallization should not be a strange existence to the Xuanshi in the Evergreen Domain, if he had the slightest doubt now, all the disguises he had made before would be meaningless.

"Lord City, this makes me a little embarrassed, this kind of thing is not something that can be carried around. After thinking for a while, Yu Changan said slowly.

"You mean you have stored the space-time crystallization somewhere?" Xiao Quanda asked with interest.

"It's not stored somewhere, it's that I can only get it after I return to the Evergreen Domain. Yu Changan replied.

"Then it's useless. When Xiao Quan heard this, his face couldn't help but show a little disappointed, maybe he thought of some upsetting things, and he suddenly whispered: "It's not difficult to enter the Evergreen Domain, but it's as difficult as climbing to the sky if you want to get out, I can't expect to wait for a space-time storm to send me out after I go in." ”

Yu Changan didn't follow Xiao Quan's words to continue, his understanding of the Evergreen Domain was limited to the content related to fighting inside, maybe Xiao Quan really believed in his identity, and was just saying something that everyone knew. But if the other party deliberately uses this way to set himself up, it is easy to expose himself by interjecting indiscriminately.

"If the city lord really wants the crystallization of time and space, it's not like I don't have anything to do. After thinking about it, Yu Changan still planned to take a risk.

Xiao Quan looked up at Yu Changan suddenly: "Really?

"There are several ways, but whether it can be done or not can only depend on the specific situation. Yu Changan said ambiguously.

"Can you elaborate on it?" asked Xiao Quan eagerly.

This time, Yu Changan smiled and said nothing, putting on a style that didn't want to show his last hole cards.

Xiao Quan stared at Yu Changan for a while, and after finding that he couldn't overwhelm the other party in terms of momentum, he also laughed, and talked with Yu Changan as if he had never mentioned it. The conversation was nothing more than a bit of a situation in the fortress against the swarm.

As he spoke, Xiao Quan suddenly changed his words and said, "Chang'an, I still have a deal I want to talk to you about." ”

"As long as it's not a space-time crystallization transaction. Yu Changan said calmly: "After all, I really don't have that thing on me now, and no matter how much I talk about, it's all empty talk." ”

Xiao Quan's face showed the strange smile that appeared before, he shook his finger, and said in a low voice: "Is there any, isn't it all up to you to say it." ”

Yu Changan's face sank, and he didn't even hesitate to put on a posture of wanting to fight, looked at Xiao Quan and asked, "What do you mean by this city lord, do you think I'm lying?"

"Don't get me wrong, that's not what I meant. Xiao Quan hurriedly denied it, and explained with a smile: "The transaction I want to mention to you is more interesting, and it needs to use the news of space-time crystallization. ”

After that, Xiao Quan took out a map of Anning City and introduced Yu Changan in detail the content of the deal he wanted to reach with Yu Changan.

Looking at the map and listening to Xiao Quan's explanation, Yu Changan had a comprehensive understanding of the situation in Anning City for the first time.

As he saw when he entered the city, the city of tranquility was divided into two parts: the inner city and the outer city. The outer city is a place where the powerful alien races live and cultivate, while the inner city is inhabited by the ethnic clansmen who actually rule the city of Anning.

But the so-called qualification for domination is not static, and if the strength of the race is not strong enough, it will be replaced by other alien races. In the same way, there is also competition within the races that have the right to rule.

For example, there are very serious contradictions within the human race, and the reason why Xiao Quan can become the city lord of Anning City is because the Xiao family has always been the strongest family among the human race in Anning City before, but now their "strongest family" ranking has been seriously challenged.

The Zong family in the inner city already has the strength to challenge the Xiao family, and even strictly speaking, the real strength of the Zong family has surpassed that of the Xiao family, just because there has not been a full-scale war between the two families, and the so-called strongest family has naturally not changed hands.

But it is obvious that the Zong family has gradually lost patience, and they have already coveted the name of the strongest family, because only by becoming the strongest family can the patriarch sit on the position of the city lord, and then the Zong family can enjoy more benefits.

In the city of tranquility, all the inhabitants of the outer city were required to hand in various offerings, and the objects of their offerings were naturally those races in the inner city who were qualified to rule. It's a brutal but clever thing to do, as the inner city has a stronger race and naturally contributes more when defending against biter attacks.

After all, only by repelling the attacking enemy can Anning City truly gain peace.

And the family of the city lord can get 30% of the offerings in the outer city, which is already quite a remarkable amount. You must know that in addition to the human race, there are also demon clans and orc clans who are also qualified to divide the offerings of the outer city, and the city lord's family can get three percent of it, and you can think of how much the other human families and the forces of the other two clans can get.

It can be said that this is equivalent to a winner-takes-all rule, only by becoming the strongest family can it develop and grow more stably, if you can't become the strongest family, you can only hope that talented clansmen like the Zong family will appear one after another, and then gain absolute superiority in personal combat power, so as to challenge the strongest family.

Compared with the Xiao family, the overall strength of the current Zong family is still a little worse, but the Zong family has more than 20 green-level powerhouses, and these green-level powerhouses are all clansmen who have risen one after another in the Zong family in the past ten years. In Anning City, being able to cultivate to the green level of strength can be regarded as reaching the peak of strength, and the Zong family has more than twenty "peak powerhouses", which naturally brings great pressure to the Xiao family.

The reason why the Zong family dared to challenge the Zong family without worrying about affecting the dominance of the human race in Anning City was based on this. Because they don't plan to have a full-scale decisive battle with the Xiao family, but they plan to rely on their own strong people to disintegrate the Xiao family's dominance little by little, and even as long as they have the opportunity, they will not hesitate to kill the Xiao family's strong people, and this kind of thing has happened more than once.

It can be said that the Xiao family and the Zong family have already formed a mortal enmity, but this mortal feud is difficult to resolve in a short time. To be precise, the Xiao family does not have the ability to cut through the chaos quickly, while the Zong family enjoys this situation very much, and plans to keep killing it like this.

If the Xiao family starts a full-scale war with the Zong family, not to mention that the end will be so miserable after losing, even if it wins, it will definitely be a miserable victory, and at that time, there is no need to wait for the demon clan and the orc clan to come over to clean up the mess, and the other human families in the inner city will definitely take advantage of the fisherman immediately.

Because of this, the main goal of the Xiao family's efforts over the years is to find a way to compete with the Zong family, they did not instantly destroy the ambition of the Zong family, they only thought of finding an opportunity to consume a few green-level powerhouses of the Zong family, and slowly suppress the number of their strong people, when the Zong family has no strength to rely on, naturally there will be no chance to continue to secretly act against the Xiao family.

Yu Chang listened to Xiao Quan's introduction quietly, and did not rush to interrupt his narration, after all, having the opportunity to have an in-depth understanding of the internal strife in Anning City was also a very valuable gain for him now.

Under Yu Chang'an's skillful guidance, Xiao Quan even gave a detailed introduction to several other powerful forces in the inner city, and these forces will also be the objects of Yu Changan's attention, whether they want to occupy Anning City or steal the city spirit, these strong enemies will naturally become opponents.

The only regret is that Yu Changan didn't hear the news about the city spirit, but this is also expected. If things related to the city spirit are always on the lips, Yu Changan will seriously question the authenticity of the news.

After introducing the complicated situation in the inner city at the moment, Xiao Quan finally explained what he wanted to do with Yu Changan.

His idea is very simple, that is, he plans to use Yu Changan's status as an "outsider" to make a fuss and attract some of the people they want to attract.

Although Yu Chang'an followed Xiao Zhu'er into the city secretly, with the city defense strength of Anning City, it was naturally easy to find out. If there was no protection from the City Lord's Mansion, an outsider like him would naturally be caught and killed by the city defense forces of Anning City.

But Xiao Quan naturally wants to keep Yu Chang'an, and will publicize Yu Chang'an's identity as Xiao Zhu'er's life-saving benefactor, in fact, he has already done this at today's dinner.

In addition, he will also reveal that Yu Chang'an is from the Evergreen Domain, and he has the crystallization of time and space on his body. In order to get the time-space crystallization on his body, Xiao Quan had already offered a very sincere price, but Yu Changan never agreed.

Xiao Quan "had no choice" and could only arrange Yu Changan in a city defense fortress in the outer city, planning to slowly find a way to buy the time-space crystals on Yu Changan's body. And in order to prevent Yu Changan from "escaping", he will naturally arrange some guards to be around Yu Changan.

This is the first step of Xiao Quan's plan, relying on Yu Chang'an's special identity and a fake news they deliberately created, so as to cause other forces in the city to covet the time and space crystals on Yu Chang'an's body.

In the face of the crystallization of time and space, the Zong family will inevitably be moved, and at that time, they can proceed to the second step of the plan - booby-trap.

Listening to Xiao Quan's plan, Yu Changan frowned and asked, "How many people does the city lord plan to trap and kill?"
