158, Xu Yue, the city lord of Xiaocheng
158
In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Mo Heng decided not to go to Shuangyun City, but directly went to Xiaocheng, which was not far from Shuangyun City.
Fortunately, the dressing style of the Void Domain is similar to theirs, and walking on the streets of Xiaocheng is not so eye-catching.
The woman in green and the man had a lot of silver in their storage rings, and they didn't have to worry about the silver coins on this trip to the Void Domain.
Nian Ji Yao used two gold coins to open a room in a restaurant, and planned to inquire about the situation in the Void Domain around here first, and it would be better if he could inquire about the situation of Wuliang Mountain again.
There are no people from the heavenly realm here, Nian Ji shook and wondered if he would let the people of the Nian family come out to breathe, but Mo Heng said that there were many unfamiliar faces suddenly, which would attract people's attention.
And the rest of the Nian family almost has no cultivation, once they encounter danger, they have no ability to protect themselves, and when they come to this inn to watch for a long time, it seems that ordinary people have a combined period of cultivation in their spiritual power.
After discussing with everyone, they still decided to stay in the space, and only their grandfather and father came out, naturally wanting to have a good experience.
The four of them ordered some food and ate it in the lobby.
Coincidentally, the table sitting next to him happened to talk about a strange incident in Xiao Cheng recently.
"I don't know if this competition with Shuangyun City, our Xiaocheng has a few chances of winning, we lost last year, and if we lose again this year, we won't be able to get resources in Xiaocheng."
Listening to what these people call him, what is his name Chen Shurong, the second son of the Chen family in Xiaocheng.
"If you can't get resources, how can you be on an equal footing with them in the future. But what's the use of us people in a hurry about this? The city lord doesn't know what evil has fallen into, he hasn't been out of the house for three years, and it's a blessing that our Xiaocheng hasn't been in chaos until now. β
This person has some backgrounds, her mother is the youngest daughter of the Qian family, the first family of Wancheng, the second largest city in the Void Domain, and married to the Lei family in Xiaocheng as the head of the house, his name is Lei Xiao.
These news were learned when several people were talking about each other and touting each other.
"I wondered, with such a profound cultivation of the city lord, what else could he be given to his body? I heard that the maids who served in the city lord's mansion said that every day they could hear the sound of ghosts crying and wolf howling, which made people hear their hairs standing on end. β
This person is not small, he is the brother-in-law of the city lord, his name is Shao Yu, what is the maid said, it is estimated that he heard from his sister Xiaocheng's city lord's wife.
"Hmph, maybe it's something wrong that I did before, and this will be retribution, I see that we people still have to make plans early."
The identity of this person is even more interesting, it turns out to be the younger brother of the woman who claimed to be the lady of the city lord they met outside the city half a day ago.
But no matter how Nian Ji Shao looked, he didn't see where the two of them looked alike.
Could it be that the same father and mother, or the wife of the city lord of Shuangyun City does not know one? Nian Ji shook her eyebrows, touched her nose, and continued to listen.
The more I listened, the more interesting it became, and Nian Ji Shao suspected that the younger brother of the city lord's wife was an undercover agent.
How can other people know his identity, but how close they are to him?
In the end, they found that the competition between Xiaocheng and Shuangyun City not long ago was not only related to the distribution of resources, but also related to the qualifications to go to Wuliang Mountain.
No wonder these people sit together and discuss this.
For Xiao Cheng, this competition is indeed very important.
After eating, the four of them came to the room to discuss, and unanimously decided to start with Xiao Cheng, get the qualification for the competition, win this competition, and then go to Wuliang Mountain with Xiao Cheng, so that they can have the opportunity to meet Lingxu Tianzun.
In the evening, my grandfather and father entered the Dragon Birthday Chain to cultivate, and Mo Heng and Nian Ji Shao came all the way to the City Lord's Mansion according to the map.
The city lord's mansion is heavily guarded, and even the guards have Mahayana cultivation.
Fortunately, the spiritual power of the Void Domain is abundant, and Nian Ji Shao's spiritual power has almost recovered, and with the cultivation of the Immortal Monarch, she will not drag Mo Heng's hind legs.
Mo Heng took Nian Ji Shao to shuttle through the City Lord's Mansion, and soon found the courtyard where the City Lord lived.
In the distance, I heard the man's low roar, which sounded oppressive and painful.
As soon as he got closer, Nian Ji Shao found a problem.
"There's a formation here."
Mo Heng was not surprised, when he heard those words during the day, he began to suspect that it should be something like a formation. It is impossible to be evil, after all, the cultivation of the city lord will not be low, and what kind of evil cultivation will make the city lord be rational.
So the most reasonable explanation is to be trapped in the formation.
"Is it the phantom array that besieged the snake that day?"
Nian Ji shook his head, and then shook his head again: "Compared to the phantom formation I arranged before, this formation is much more advanced, and I couldn't arrange such a high-level formation at that time." β
But now, with the improvement of Nian Ji's cultivation, this phantom array is still not difficult for her.
Nian Ji Shao took out two charms from the space: "Put them on, otherwise we will be affected when we go in." β
Put the charm close to his body, Mo Heng hugged Nian Ji's shaking waist and flew directly into the courtyard, and the closer he was, the man's low roar could be heard more clearly.
Listening to the voice, the city lord is still very young, but he seems to have been immersed in some kind of emotion, and his mood is very unstable.
"He's not simple......"
Mo Heng said suddenly.
Nian Ji shook Mo Heng's eyes and saw a man dressed in black with a disheveled head, he was tied by chains, his chest rose and fell a lot, maybe he had been tortured for so long, the man was very thin, and he would let out a low roar after a few minutes.
But Nian Ji shook from the dim light and saw this man's eyes. It's unusually firm!
A person who has been tormented by illusions for a long time can still stay awake, and Nian Ji Shao feels that she herself does not necessarily have such a strong will.
"Who?"
The man's cultivation is not low, and Nian Ji Shao was noticed by the man after just a few breaths.
The two of them did not hide, and emerged directly from the darkness.
"Who are you?"
Xu Yue looked at the man and woman in front of him vigilantly: "Hmph, it won't be that person who lost his patience and sent you two over and wanted my life!" β
"Who wants your life?"
Xu Yue looked at Mo Heng suspiciously, and suddenly laughed softly: "Isn't it?" That's a strange thing, the people who can come in here are either dead or crazy, why are you okay? β
Nian Ji shook his finger at the charm on his waist: "Of course it's because of this!" β
Xu Yue's eyes changed, spells, this woman can actually draw spells?
"Who the hell are you?"
"This doesn't matter, the important thing is that the match with Twin Cloud City will start immediately, Xiao Cheng has already lost once last year, and if he loses again this year, Xiao Cheng's situation will get even worse. What will become of the end, I believe you know best, city lord. β
Xu Yue's eyes tightened, looking at the iron chain in his hand, it seemed that he had made a big decision, and the iron chain was broken with force.
Nian Ji Shao: "......"
It seems that the lord of the castle locked himself up.
Xu Yue stood up, his height was about the same as Mo Heng, but because he was too thin, Xu Yue's clothes were empty, but he could still imagine the style of the year.
"If you have anything to say, just say it."
Until now, Xu Yue really couldn't guess which side of these two people were.
"Okay, since the city lord is so simple, then we won't beat around the bush, I can solve the things in your yard and restore your personal freedom, on the condition that the two of us represent Xiao Cheng in the competition."
Xu Yue didn't react for a while, this condition is still a condition?
No matter how you listen to it, he takes advantage of it.
"It's as simple as that?"
Nian Ji nodded: "You heard it right, it's as simple as that." β
"No problem." Xu Yue happily agreed.
"Okay, then I'll break the phantom array in this courtyard now." Nian Ji's words made Xu Yue look at her again.
He thought of countless ways to come up with this phantom array, and also asked his subordinates to invite a lot of warlocks over, but there was no way to break this phantom array.
This woman in red can break it if she says it?
What kind of person is she, who can break such a high-level phantom array, is she a disciple of Lingxu Tianzun?
Xu Yue kept staring at Nian Ji Shao, wanting to see what was famous, but Mo Heng was tasted.
Although he knew that Xu Yue only wanted to know Nian Ji Shao's identity, he still hugged Nian Ji Shao and warned unceremoniously: "City Lord, she is my woman." β
Nian Ji shook her heart and rolled her eyes, naΓ―ve or not.
Xu Yue nodded, and at this point, Xu Yue let down his guard against them, and stretched out his hand to Mo Heng: "My name is Xu Yue, and we will be friends in the future." β
Mo Heng raised his eyebrows and replied, "Mo Heng, this is my wife Nian Ji Shao." β
Xu Yue laughed: "It turns out that you are already married." β
Seeing that the two of them were talking and laughing, Nian Ji shook himself and went to the courtyard to observe this phantom array, and after knowing it, he took out yellow paper and cinnabar from the space.
"This phantom array is very advanced, I need to draw a new spell."
Xu Yue looked at Nian Ji Shao, who was moving in one go, and had a new understanding of the abilities of the two, these two people's abilities are so strong, they are definitely not sent by that person, it is possible that they are really the people of Lingxu Tianzun.
Could it be that the Spirit Void Heavenly Venerable already knew about the situation here and was ready to intervene in dealing with it himself?
After the spell was drawn, Nian Ji Shao found the eye of the phantom array, and began to break the formation, and complex words jumped out of Nian Ji Shao's mouth one by one, and the spell was suddenly full of light because of the spell that Nian Ji Shao recited, and a beam of purple golden light rushed straight into the sky.
There was a "bang", like invisible ripples rippling in this courtyard, and with such an explosion, the phantom array disappeared without a trace.
"Alright."
If the person who laid this formation was here, she would have to be angry, she spent a lot of effort to lay down this formation, and it was easily broken by a little girl, how can such a person accept it.
"Thank you both. No matter what your purpose is, if you are useful, as long as it is not harmful, I will be absolutely on call without saying a word. β
This Xu Yue's temper Nian Ji shook like, and returned with a smile: "It's easy to say, I won't trouble you less in the future." β
Mo Heng saw his little wife smiling at other men, and his heart was unhappy, so he didn't say hello to Xu Yue, and directly hugged Nian Ji and disappeared in the City Lord's Mansion in an instant.
