Chapter 716: Vanguard
Pucheng City Lord's Mansion, City Lord Li Qiming is meeting guests, and after a while, it will be an important day for the Eight Spirits Family - Eight Spirits Day! Although there are actually only four spirits left in the Eight Spirits family, the Eight Spirits Festival has always been retained. As the leader of the Four Spirits Family, the Evil Spirit Family holds important gatherings every hundred years, and when the time comes, important people from each family will be present.
Li Qiming, as the lord of a city, is naturally invited again. The person who came to announce this time was an eight-rank hunter of the evil spirit family. The Eight Souls Day is not only a gathering and exchange of important people, but also an important day to visit the younger generation. If the younger generation is selected, they will have the opportunity to be trained by the four major families. Therefore, no matter which family it is, it attaches great importance to this festival.
Li Qiming learned that his nephew has made a lot of progress recently, and he intends to let him participate this time. Although Li Mohuan is a peripheral person after all, it is not difficult to obtain some rewards with his strength.
"City Lord Li, after that three months, we will be waiting for you." The two talked happily, and the messenger of the evil spirit family bowed his hand.
Li Qiming returned the salute, "It must be certain, this time it is troublesome brother, I will definitely be there on time." While the two were talking, a subordinate recklessly barged in, "Report to the lord of the city...... "He saw that there was a guest here, and swallowed back the following words, and retreated to the side knowing that he was wrong.
Li Qiming frowned, "What kind of presumptuous and reckless deed, didn't you see that I have a distinguished guest here?" The messenger got up and said, "Since City Lord Li has something to do, then I will retire first." "He's just giving orders, and he's not interested in anything else.
In order to make a good impression on him, Li Qiming hurriedly pressed his hand and said, "Brother Tai, why do you have to see outside, our Siling family is already a family." This reckless subordinate seems to have something important, and it just so happens that my brother Tai gave me a staff officer. He turned to look at his subordinates, still a little dissatisfied, "What's the matter, this is the envoy of the Kong family, not an outsider." ”
The subordinate thought to himself, "Since the city lord has said so, although the matter is very big, I can't blame me for being ashamed." So he bowed to Li Qiming and the envoy respectively, and said, "Lord Yu City, the little one just learned that the City Lord of Mocheng was ...... was killed, Mocheng was occupied, and it seemed that the people of Xue Sixuan rebelled. When he heard the news, he hurried to report it, but it was not very clear what the situation was.
"What!" Li Qiming got up from his seat, realized his gaffe, and looked at the messenger before slowly sitting down, "Is it true at this time?" ”
"It was said by a guard in Mocheng himself, the matter is urgent, and his subordinates brought him without authorization, and he is waiting outside the door at the moment." The subordinate was a little worried, he violated the rules by bringing outsiders into the city lord's mansion, breaking the rules, and maybe he would be punished. But it is also possible that because of this little thing, he was appreciated by the city lord, and he was gambling.
However, often this kind of courageous person will be reused. Li Qiming nodded, "You did a good job," he simply praised him, but this sentence was enough to make him happy, "Bring him in, I have something to ask." "I just decided to let Li Mohuan go to the Eight Souls Festival, and this incident happened, this is a naked slap in the face.
In fact, he had already believed seven or eight points in his heart, and secretly clenched his fists, "No matter who it is, I won't let you die easily." "His face was a little hideous. It's just that because the envoy of the evil spirit family is here, he tries to be as calm as possible.
The subordinates retreated, and after a while, they came in with a second-grade hunter, "Lord of the city, this is the guard of Mocheng." ”
The guard also obediently kneeled and saluted, "The villain sees the lord of the city," and looked at the messenger of the evil spirit family, because he did not know the unchanging name, so he only bowed once.
"Get up and speak." Li Qiming suppressed his anger and tried his best to show the generosity of the city lord.
"Master Xie." The guards stood respectfully, waiting for questions.
Li Qiming's voice was majestic, but very polite, "You are reporting that Li Mohuan, the city lord of Mocheng, was killed?" ”
"Yes, the villain saw it with his own eyes." The guard replied.
Li Qiming kept watching the guard's demeanor when he spoke, knowing that he was not lying, he was angry in his heart, "Who killed Li Mohuan?" You tell what happened as it is. He looked at the messenger and asked him to hear it too.
Before the guards came again, they first sorted out what happened that day, so they didn't panic, "Lord Hui, the guards guarding the city that day were the first to see a super grade spirit crystal ship flying in, so they went to inform the deputy city lord. The deputy city lord went to greet him, but the man was very arrogant, and he ignored our deputy city lord at all, and only said that he wanted to find our city lord for something. The deputy city lord hurried back to the city lord's mansion and told the city lord about it, and the city lord set up a table of wine to prepare for the man. But it didn't take long for that person to come to the City Lord's Mansion with Zhang Qi of Xue Sixuan, kill the City Lord and the Deputy City Lord, and advertise himself as the master of Mocheng. The guards talked about it in one breath, but as for the relationship between Zhang Shun and Xue Sixuan, they didn't know.
The next day, when everyone went to congratulate the new city owner, the person did not show up, but it was the boss of Xue Sixuan who picked up the new city owner. A few of my companions and I quietly escaped because we missed the old city lord. The villain thought that this matter was very important, so he hurried to report to the lord of the castle. "He is an ambitious man who does not want to stay in a small town for the rest of his life and wants to take this opportunity to turn over.
After Li Qiming and the envoy heard this, the two of them glanced at each other, and they both thought intently, "Super Grade Spirit Crystal Ship? The people in the Cuiwei Continent who can afford to sit on this kind of spirit crystal boat are basically people from the four major families, and they shouldn't have trouble getting along with Huan'er. But Huan'er has never been out of the Cuiwei Continent, so how can she offend a master of this level? The key to the matter is in this Xue Sixuan. ”
Although Xue Sixuan has been gaining momentum in recent years, it is a low-end product after all, and it has not yet attracted his attention. So he hadn't heard of Xue Sixuan at all, and he didn't know about Zhao Wuxian. He was a little worried, since the other party could afford to sit on the super grade spirit crystal ship, his strength must not be simple, and with his own strength, he may not be an opponent. Li Qiming set his eyes on the envoy, "If you can get the help of the evil spirit family, you will definitely be able to let out this evil breath." ”
The envoy smiled slightly and asked, "Do you know what marks are on the super grade spirit crystal ship, and what kind of strength is the person who makes the ship?" Although his strength is not as good as Li Qiming, he often travels between major families, and his means of dealing with people are much more clever than Li Qiming.
The guard thought back for a moment and said, "It happened that I was guarding the gate that day, and I saw them crossing the boat, and there was a sign of a wave. The person who killed the city lord, I heard the soldiers say that he was a seven-rank master, and his strength was very strong, and our city lord couldn't stop his move. "When Zhang Shun killed someone, he was not there, and he just listened to others.
"Waves?" The envoy pondered this mark, looked at Li Qiming with his eyes, and tried to think about it, but unfortunately, there was no such mark in his information base, "City Lord Li, do you know that the place is marked with ocean waves?" ”
Li Qiming also shook his head, "I don't know this, we basically know several big cities around the Day of the Dead, and I haven't heard of anyone using waves as a mark." The two thought for a while, and really didn't know this mark.
This is the mark of Xihai City, tens of billions of miles away, they have never been there, how would they know.
"Fortunately, the other party is only a seven-rank person, presumably at this time, City Lord Li will definitely be able to handle it properly." The messenger said. He didn't know that Li Mohuan was the object chosen by Li Qiming, so he only dealt with it as an ordinary incident. This kind of thing happens several times a year, and he is used to it.
Li Qiming was also relieved, if he was only a seventh-grade master, of course he would have a way to deal with it. "No matter where you come from, I'm going to let you die without a place to be buried." After asking the guard a few more things, he asked him to go down and receive the reward. The guards were slightly disappointed when they saw that the city lord had no intention of taking him in. But there is a reward, and it comforts a lot.
Soon, Li Qiming called his four generals. They are the head of the tiger, the head of the bear, the head of the leopard, and the head of the wolf, the head of the tiger has been promoted to the early stage of the ninth grade, and the other three are all at the peak of the eighth grade, and their strength should not be underestimated. Although there are other eight-rank hunters in Pucheng, these four people are the most important. Li Qiming briefly said that Li Mohuan was killed, and said to the leopard head and the wolf head: "Leopard, gray wolf, this matter will be handed over to you, I don't want you to kill him, bring people here for me, I want to see who eats the bear's heart and leopard gall and dares to kill my nephew." ”
"Don't worry, city lord, you will definitely bring people here." The head of the leopard and the head of the wolf led the way. When they heard that the other party was just a seven-rank hunter, they didn't pay attention to it at all. What's more, they are from the big city, and the guards in the small city will definitely not help Zhang Shun and them.
The two of them did not take the spirit crystal boat, but used energy to fly and rushed to Mocheng as fast as possible.
In the past few days, Zhang Shun has urged several girls to cultivate, and has also made a lot of progress. Yin Yixue and Zhao Wuxian comprehended the combination of skills, hiding mines in the ice, and suddenly casting killing moves. And Feng Ling'er and Jacorina also comprehended the combination of skills, fusing the gold element into the wind, although the energy is not strong, but if the sneak attack is successful, they will be able to win by surprise. As for Ye Shiqing and Yang Simin, although they have not comprehended the combination skills, their strength has been stabilized and they have made great progress.
And because Zhao Bingling got a large number of Hongmeng Stones, he suddenly realized the bottleneck of the five grades, and at this time he was in retreat and cultivating, impacting the level of the five grades. At this moment, they suddenly got news that they found that a master was approaching Pucheng, and Zhang Shun and Yin Yixue rushed to the city to check. Hateless, Nana, and Feng Ling'er also rushed over, but they didn't show up, but secretly ambushed them.
The leopard head and the wolf head guessed wrong, except for a few guards in Mocheng who were not convinced by Zhao Wuxian's accident, the rest of the people were convinced, and they were willing to serve Zhao Wuxian and Yin Yixue as the new city lords. Therefore, the daily order of Mocheng is maintained normally. When they got closer, they were spotted by the observing system.
Zhang Shun looked at the two people who were moving quickly, and smiled faintly, "Send two vanguard troops to send them to death." ”
