Chapter 49: Worship the Lord of the Heavenly Temple
Dongfang Qi has joined the Lei Xiao Sect.
This news quickly spread throughout Zhucheng under Dongfang Li's arrangement.
He has just become the lord of the city, and he needs a happy event to have fun with everyone, to shorten the distance between them, so that those forces and people who want to take refuge in him also have an excuse to come to the door to give gifts and deepen the connection.
After all, the son of the city lord worshiped a powerful sect like the Lei Xiao Sect, and he had a bright future in the future, and it was only a matter of time before he became a peerless master who changed his life for a thousand years.
With this kind of Immortal Sect disciples as backers, highlighting the potential of the Dongfang family, there will be more forces attached to Dongfang Li, and more talents will take refuge in Dongfang Li.
Originally, Dongfang Li was going to have fun with everyone at the knighthood ceremony, but now it doesn't hurt to celebrate it in advance.
Under Wang Mu's careful arrangement, the entire Bamboo City was ready to celebrate in a big way, and the lights were lit up everywhere, as if it was a grand festival.
The officials of Zhucheng all received rewards from the City Lord's Mansion, the servants of the Dongfang family all received red envelopes, and the family's new chamber of commerce and various industries took the opportunity to reduce prices to celebrate the young master's worship in the Lei Xiao Sect.
In a restaurant in the outer city of Zhucheng, several outsiders were obviously eating and drinking, and when they saw the restaurant decorated with lights, they also sent a few glasses of wine to each table of customers, and one of them asked: "Running the hall, you are also lighting up and sending wine, what happy event happened in Zhucheng?" ”
"Haha, of course it's a great event." The one who ran the hall was also happy to explain: "Our young city lord Dongfang Qi was valued by the predecessors of the Lei Xiao Sect, and brought to the Lei Xiao Sect to learn art, I heard that in a few years, he will definitely become a fairy-like thousand-year-old life change master, hehe, you said that our Bamboo City has a fairy-like figure, should we celebrate, so the city lord announced that the Bamboo City celebrates a day today, and I also heard that all the big people in the Bamboo City will go to the City Lord's Mansion at night to congratulate the city lord!" ”
After the hall finished, he was busy again, and the business of the restaurant was very good today, almost full of customers.
"Dongfang Li actually found such a backer, it seems that the city lord of Zhucheng died in vain." The young man who had questioned him whispered to his companion.
"Although our Bilong Island dominates the southeast of the Demonless Sea, it is like dust and stars, dew and the sea, the ordinary disciples of the Thunder Xiao Sect and the four island masters dare not provoke, being able to worship the sect with the Heavenly Monarch is equivalent to stepping into the immortal path with half a foot, it is only a matter of time before you become a thousand years old and change your life, and after becoming a thousand years old and changing your life, you can still seek a position as an immortal official in the Heavenly Court." The man next to the young man was envious.
Several of them came to Bilong Island to inquire about how the city lord of Zhucheng died, and today they found out that Dongfang Li's father and son killed the city lord of Zhucheng, and they were about to investigate Dongfang Li, when they encountered this kind of thing.
"We only need to find out the news, and we can't control what the island owner does." The other said.
They entered the field on Bilong Island to contact the Chitose Changing Destiny Realm, knowing that these people were all powerful, Dongfang Li's son became a disciple of the Lei Xiao Sect, and he would definitely become a Chitose Changing Life in the future, so they didn't want to mess with Dongfang Li.
The main hall of the Eike Rock Castle.
In the past two days, both the Wei family and the dealer have fought a few tentative battles, regardless of victory or defeat.
At this time, Wei Yan was discussing with the ministers how to deal with the dealer.
"Monarch, I have inquired clearly, it was Dongfang Li who killed the city lord of Bamboo City, and then Zhuang Zi of the Zhuang family led people to slaughter the city lord's mansion." Ji Ziyun bowed and said.
Monarch Wei Yan frowned when he heard this, but did not speak.
A courtier beside him said: "The Zhuang family and Dongfang have joined forces, and Wei Xiaoyu has betrayed the family. ”
"Please also ask the monarch to kill Wei Xiaoyu, a traitor." A young man beside Wei Yan stood up and said bitterly.
He is Wei Yan's second son, Wei Huai, and he can't get used to Wei Xiaoyu, as long as he has the opportunity to kill Wei Xiaoyu, he will not give it away.
"Let the little fish in, I want to hear what he has to say?" Monarch Wei Yan said coldly.
Wei Yan is a monarch, but he is also a father, so he naturally will not kill his son because of speculation.
Wei Xiaoyu entered the door and said, "Meet the monarch." ”
Wei Yan stared at Wei Xiaoyu and said coldly: "Can you re-explain, why Dongfang Li killed the city lord of Bamboo City, but the city lord seal is in your hands?" And you also handed over the Great Seal of the Bamboo City City Lord to Dongfang Li? ”
"Now that my father knows about it, I won't hide it." Wei Xiaoyu stood up, the true qi of the Great Grandmaster came out of his body, and said: "The City Lord Seal is in Dongfang Li's hands, he wants me to hand over the City Lord Great Seal to him in public, and he will give me an elixir to let me break through the Great Grandmaster." Moreover, Dongfang Li also said that he was willing to join forces with the Wei family to eradicate the dealer. All he needs is Bamboo City. ”
"Hmph, you dare to deceive me." Monarch Wei Yan slammed the seat to smash with a palm, pointed at Wei Xiaoyu and said, "Do you think Zhucheng is only worth one pill?" ”
"Father's Atonement." Wei Xiaoyu knelt on the ground in a panic and said, "The child didn't think about it at the time, I thought that anyway, the city lord's seal was in Dongfang Li's hands, and it was for nothing to hand it over to him in public to get the pill." ”
Wei Huai jumped up and accused: "Dad, Wei Xiaoyu is so selfish that he replaced the family's fiefdom with pills and took it himself, and he should be executed to make an example." ”
"Dad, the child knows that he is wrong, even if you execute the child, the child has nothing to say, but I hope that my father will let me make meritorious service with my guilt, and I can rest assured that even if I die after the dealer is destroyed." Wei Xiaoyu said bitterly.
He can mix from a concubine to be better than his sister-in-law, he can see at a glance that Wei Yan doesn't want to kill him, so he pretends to regret it and finds an excuse for Wei Yan not to kill him.
Monarch Wei Yan looked up at the ministers in the hall at this time and asked, "Everyone, what do you think Wei Xiaoyu should do?" ”
Ji Ziyun glanced at Wei Xiaoyu, who was kneeling on the ground, and said, "Qiyu Monarch, now is the time to employ people, and Wei Xiaoyu should be exempted from the death penalty and let him make meritorious contributions with the crime." Wei Xiaoyu has the cultivation of a great grandmaster, and it is a sharp weapon against the dealer, and he cannot be killed now. ”
"Ji Zai is right, it is the best policy to make meritorious service with guilt." And another of his courtiers came forward.
"Hey, since all the ministers said so, then exempt Wei Xiaoyu from the death penalty and make meritorious contributions." Monarch Wei Yan said expressionlessly: "However, the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, so Wei Xiaoyu will be deprived of his position as commander and temporarily replaced by Ji Ziyun." ”
"Thank you, father." Wei Xiaoyu's eyes were red, and he said gratefully: "Thank you ministers for interceding for me." ”
Ji Ziyun stood up and said to Wei Yan at this time: "Since Dongfang Li is the real murderer who killed the city lord of Bamboo City, then we should notify the big island lord on Bilong Island and let the big island lord take revenge for the city lord of Bamboo City." ”
"Well, that's exactly what I wanted." Wei Yan nodded, and said to Wei Xiaoyu again: "Wei Xiaoyu, you take a guard to the outside of Bamboo City, if Dongfang Li dies, take Bamboo City back, don't let the dealer get cheap." ”
"Yes, the child will live up to his father's expectations." Wei Xiaoyu responded.
Bamboo City Castle Lord's Mansion.
When night fell, the lights were on, the city lord's mansion was full of traffic, and the big people within a hundred miles of Bamboo City appeared one after another, all wanting to take the opportunity to leave the east.
In the future, Dongfang Qi will become a thousand years old and change his life, they will have one more backer and one more way, even if Dongfang Qi is not successful, there is no big loss in giving some gifts.
"Come and pay a visit under Lei Hong."
An old man in a purple robe said in a loud voice.
"The Lord of the Bamboo City Sacrifice Heavenly Palace."
Dongfang Li found this person's information from the depths of his memory, the hall master of a city controlled all the sacrifices here, and his power was no worse than that of him, the city lord.
He took the officials of Zhucheng and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him.
"Lord of the Thunder Palace, please come in quickly."
He was also the first person to greet Dongfang Li in person, and after Lei Hong entered the main hall, he looked respectful and enthusiastic: "I heard that the young city lord worshiped Lei Xiao Heavenly Sect, and I came to congratulate him." ”
Everyone behind him also echoed him, with compliments and smiles on their faces.
"A small gift is not a tribute, and I hope the city lord will not dislike it."
Lei Hong's respect and enthusiasm made Dongfang Li feel strange, could it be that Lei Xiaozong's reputation was really so attractive?
He wasn't familiar with Lei Hong in the past, but he also knew that Lei Hong was notoriously old-fashioned and mean, and since he served as the master of the Bamboo City Heavenly Temple a hundred years ago, he had never participated in any public activities in Longyan County, let alone come to the door to say goodbye.
Dongfang Li smiled: "Haha, the hall master is too polite. ”
Not long after everyone entered the door, a shocking roar suddenly came from a distance outside the bamboo city.
This long howl seemed to be ten miles away from Zhucheng, but it reached the inner city of Zhucheng in a few breaths, and the sound of the long howl was endless, and the next moment everyone in the inner city felt that the sound was like rolling thunder in the sky, shaking the inner city and shaking.
When the people, including Dongfang Li, heard this, their faces changed.
Dongfang Li had already taken the Rebirth Pill at this time, and his cultivation had already reached the peak of the great grandmaster's peak, his true qi was not so strong, and the true qi power contained in this long howl far exceeded the peak of any great grandmaster, more than ten times more powerful than ordinary great grandmasters, or even a hundred times, much stronger than him.
A long howl almost changed the world, and it had the ability to call for wind and rain.
"Isn't it ......?" Dongfang was shocked: "Could it be that this person is a peerless master of a thousand years old who changed his life." ”
He was going to intercept it to prevent this person from coming to the inner city to wreak havoc, but after thinking about it, he still took back his true anger, although the person who came was suspected of demonstrating, but it was not clear whether he was a friend or foe.
In the blink of an eye, a slender figure appeared at the entrance of the main hall like a phantom.
It was a young woman, and she seemed to be a fairy who had descended to earth.
Everyone saw that her beautiful long hair fluttered down like a waterfall, willow eyebrows like distant mountains, a pair of starry eyes like stars like bright moon, a beautiful nose, pink cheeks with anger, delicate red lips, snow-like cheeks were very beautiful, delicate and flawless snow muscles were like frost and snow, and her body was slender, so beautiful that she couldn't eat the fireworks of the world.
As soon as she arrived at the door, her eyes stayed on Dongfang Li's father and son and Lei Hong, the master of the Heaven Sacrifice Temple, Dongfang Li's eyes made contact with her, and her heart trembled, as if she had seen an unfathomable sea, which seemed to be calm but actually contained danger.
The woman rolled her eyes and asked, "Are you Dongfang Li?" ”
