Chapter 102: Misfortune
"I'll go to the underground dungeon and have a look!" As soon as Confucius heard the news that the city lord was back, he immediately opened his mouth and said a word to the fat city lord, and his figure disappeared after a few flashes, leaving only the fat city lord with a stunned face.
The fat city lord also faintly began to feel that something seemed to be wrong, he had never seen such an anxious scene in the eyes of the Confucian surnamed Xu before.
However, he also had no better way, since the city lord came, he naturally asked him to greet him in person.
When he returned to the City Lord's Hall, the central seat in the hall was already sitting in the position that should have belonged to him, and there was already a middle-aged man dressed in a blue robe with a black and white three-foot sword hanging from his waist.
The fat city lord naturally didn't dare to say more than half a word about all this, so he had to stand obediently in the lower position of the hall and bow slightly to the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man didn't seem to care about the arrival of the fat city lord, and just took a sip of tea to himself.
"Master Zheng, why are you back again, could it be that there is something to tell the little one?" The fat city lord asked with some puzzlement.
"When did you see me coming?" Zheng Xuan put down the teacup in his hand and frowned.
"Just now, you... Didn't you come to check out the Thousand Shadow Sword? When the fat city lord heard this, his heart immediately "chuckled", and a bad feeling arose.
"You said I've been here before, and I've gone to see the Thousand Shadow Sword!" Zheng Xuan's eyes instantly became extremely cold, although he didn't know exactly what was going on, but the guy in front of him obviously fell for the trick.
"Yes... That's right, after you saw the Thousand Shadows Sword just now... Just left. The fat city lord's eyes trembled slightly, now even if he was stupid, he knew that the previous city lord had a problem.
"Rubbish!" As soon as the words fell, the fat city lord only felt that his body had flown into the air uncontrollably, his body drew an arc in the air, and then slammed into the wall on one side of the hall, and the whole person was embedded in the wall.
"Poof!"
As soon as his body fell to the ground, a stream of blood surged into his heart again, and the ground in front of him was covered with a large area of scarlet blood.
Half of the reason for him this time was that Zheng Xuan's strength far surpassed him, but the other half was angered by Ye Xingyu and Wuwei.
Zheng Xuan didn't care about him anymore after he struck out, but went towards the underground secret room at a high speed.
On the other side, inside the underground stone chamber.
Confucian Sheng's face was pale, the Thousand Shadow Sword originally placed in front of the Ding Furnace had disappeared, and in the vertical and horizontal ravines that had been carved by a large area of sharp sword shadows, a bright red magic circle had already lost its luster, and only a little dried blood was left.
"It's really thoughtful to use the sword to mark the key spiritual points in the formation, and then cover it up with chaotic sword marks, and lure us away at a critical moment."
"This Blood Escape Array needs to be poured with blood, and there must be sacrifices and drivers to do it, which means that there are a total of three people who came to participate in the sword stealing this time, and Wu Wei and his master account for two, so what is the origin of this third person?" Confucius gently stroked the circle on the ground with his hand and muttered to himself.
Outside the City Lord's Mansion in Linjiang City, three people wearing black gauze hats and coarse cloth clothes slowly emerged from the shadows in the corners of the alleyway.
"Damn, how could this Zheng Xuan appear in this shitty place in the middle of the night for no reason?" Among them, the young man with a long face and short hair spat to the side with some hatred, obviously he was very disgusted with this Zheng Xuan.
"This sanctimonious Xu family slave, he must have done something unsightly when he came here in the middle of the night, but this old guy's strength is really something, just a little more glanced at him just now, and he almost found out." The burly man first looked disgusted, and then showed a little fear.
"Hey, what if he's a Xuanjie? Didn't you deceive the eldest brother's mental barrier? The young man with short hair and long face fell on the man with a heroic sword eyebrow and said with a smile.
"Yes, I think that although this Zheng Xuan is named the first person in Jinling, in fact, his strength is only like this." The burly man also echoed.
"I don't know if he saw through our position, but he must have been aware of our presence." The man said with a blank face.
As soon as they heard the man's words, the other two stopped joking.
"Then why did this Chihiro lead us here?" The burly man also had a serious expression and spoke.
"Wait, we came here after Wuwei all the way, and this is the territory of the Xu family's lackey Wen Fatzi, and then Zheng Xuan came, all this is too much of a coincidence, with the remoteness of this place, it stands to reason that a big man like Zheng Xuan should not have appeared, even if the Xu family has a task to hand over to Wen Fatzi, it is impossible for Zheng Xuan to come in person." The long-faced young man said in a deep voice.
"There is still a slight possibility that Zheng Xuan will come here, but I don't understand how this inaction can come here?"
"I think this sword stealing seems to be absolutely inseparable from the Jin family, and it is possible that the sword thief was instructed by the Xu family! Perhaps, Wu Wei is here to trade the Thousand Shadow Sword with the Xu family! Dahan snorted coldly, but he spoke.
"Doesn't that mean that the Thousand Shadow Sword is in here now, but Zheng Xuan is in it now, with our strength..."When the short-haired and long-faced young man heard the big man's words, his tone was a little hesitant, and he didn't finish his words.
Spirit level and Xuan level, the difference in strength between these two levels is not a star and a half, let alone the three of them, even if there are six or seven spirit levels, I am afraid that it is not Zheng Xuan's opponent, if the sword is really here, then they can only wait for the people sent by their family to come over and make a move.
"I don't know if Wuwei came here at the behest of the Jin family, but the matter of stealing the sword and the Jin family must not be able to escape, and with Wuwei's ability alone, there is no way to steal the sword from the well-defended Jin weapon shop."
"As for if you want to know the truth of the matter, it's not difficult, as long as you catch Wuwei, everything will be understood." The man with sword eyebrows suddenly said loudly.
The burly man and the long-faced man were slightly stunned, this Wuwei is now in this city lord's mansion, and there are not a few guards inside, not to mention the spirit level of Wen Fatzi, and now Zheng Xuan is personally in charge, how can they arrest Wuwei?
The two looked at each other and fell on the man.
The sword-eyed man didn't say much, but took out the Chihiro plate that exuded a silver aura from his sleeve.
The direction of the pointer in the Chihiro disk has changed, and the pointers that originally overlapped together to point to the City Lord's Mansion have been pointing in the opposite direction from before, and the invisible silver thread of spiritual breath is also extending in this direction.
"Wuwei is out of the city!" The three of them looked at each other. Take a look at the latest chapter of "Half NPC Player Claw Book House" for free reading for the first time.
