Chapter 333: The Origin of the Assassin
"Hmph, punishment, you guards are not effective, you didn't even see the appearance of the assassin clearly, let alone warned in advance, resulting in the assassination of adults, this is a capital crime! Hmph, come on, drag a few of them out, break their legs, abolish Xiuwei, and throw them out to feed the dogs!"
After listening to the words of these four people, Yu Fan was also sure that he was indeed an external assassin, and the last bit of doubt about Xutianzhi disappeared, but his heart was very angry, so he let Xutianzhi become the city lord, and he was unwilling.
It just so happened that these four guards were his subordinates, so he was embarrassed in front of Xu Tianzhi, not to mention, at least he had to have an explanation, and the four of them became Yu Fan's punching bag and a complete cup.
And after the four guards heard Yu Fan's punishment for them, their faces were like ashes, and they knew that their lives were difficult to protect, so they even forgot to beg for mercy. Because they know Yu Fan's character, this is a ruthless person, and the orders he gave except for the city lord Bu Xingdao, no one can change them, and the hearts of several people have also sunk to the bottom.
Seeing that the four guards were about to be dragged out, Xu Tianzhi, who was sitting in front of him, spoke at this time, "Slow, Commander Yu, this matter is no wonder for them, the other party's cultivation is high, the speed is too fast, even I didn't stop it, it is even more impossible for them to stop it, let them go! Even if you kill them, it won't help, spare them this time!"
"Hmph, since the virtual old man has spoken, then I will spare the lives of a few of you, next time I make a mistake, I will definitely not spare you, you few wastes, don't hurry up with these virtual elders. ”
Calmed down, Yu Fan didn't really want to kill them, after all, it was his subordinates, just now he was just angry, since Xu Tianzhi spoke, then he couldn't help but follow Xu Tianzhi's opinion, and he naturally found a step down.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, Lord Commander. ”
Originally thought that the fate of death, who knew that there was a turning point, Xu Tianzhi opened his mouth to intercede for them, and did not punish them, not only saved their lives, but also did not receive any punishment, and the commander Yu Fan also spared them, how could the four of them not be happy, as if they had come from hell to heaven for a while. They just excitedly kept kowtowing to the Void Heaven to express their gratitude, and the joy in their hearts was indescribable.
"Okay, there's nothing to do with you here, you go down, and be careful next time you're on duty. ”
Xu Tianzhi opened his mouth to stop the actions of a few people, a few people were wronged, and there was nothing wrong with it, it was more beneficial to sell their favors to them to control the power of the entire City Lord's Mansion, why not do it!
The four guards waved their hands when they saw Xu Tianzhi and motioned for them to retreat, and the four of them suddenly withdrew from the hall excitedly as if they had been amnestied.
"Although we don't know who the assassin is, it's not difficult to deduce who sent the assassin! There are only two major families who have a disagreement with our city lord and don't want the city lord to succeed in his advancement, and they are the only ones who have the ability to send an assassin to the Condensing Source Realm. Before the city lord died, he also suspected that he was a member of the two major families, and now the assassin who assassinated the city lord is obvious!"
Xu Tianzhi squinted his fox-like eyes, looked at the contemplative Wind and Roll Cloud and Yu Fan, and said his speculation.
"The two major families, well, they are the only ones who dare to assassinate the adults at this time, I don't know which one of them is!"
Wind and Roll Cloud also agreed after listening to Xutianzhi's words, and nodded.
