Chapter Fifty-Eight: Mysterious Force, Great War Is Imminent
Wei Wutian came all the way to the Zhang family in the south of the city, the Zhang family has always maintained a neutral attitude, and neither side helps, at this time the Li family has sent four waves of people to win over, but they were all rejected by the Zhang family's proposition.
As soon as the people of the Li family left on the front foot, Wei Wutian came on the back foot.
"Who dares to break into Zhang's house, take it down for me" The guards of the Zhang family came to arrest Wei Wutian, but they were all knocked unconscious by him.
"Family master, it's not good, there is a strong man from the Gathering Star Realm outside who broke into our Zhang family's compound and said that he was looking for you, and many disciples were knocked to the ground by him."
When Zhang Wuwu heard this, he hurriedly ran out to take a look, only to see a man in black surrounded by the children of the Zhang family.
"Stop," Zhang Wuwu shouted at them, "Dare to ask Your Excellency what is the important matter of breaking into my Zhang family?"
"Old worry, did you forget me so soon" Wei Wutian took off his mask and turned to Zhang Wuwu and said.
"Old... Old Wei, aren't you..."Zhang Wuwu was very surprised to see Wei Wutian, but he was very happy.
"City Lord" The children of the Zhang family all recognized it, "City Lord, you are back", and everyone was very happy.
"Old Wei, didn't you disappear mysteriously, what happened?" Zhang Wuwu asked curiously.
"Come in first, it's loud outside, I'll have a good chat with you," Wei Wutian said.
"All the children of the Zhang family listen to the order, today's matter must not be leaked out, otherwise the astrolabe will be abolished and expelled from the Zhang Mansion"
"Yes, Master, remember the Promise"
"Lao Wei, please, what's going on?" asked Zhang Wuwu anxiously.
"Time is urgent, let's just tell you, I was calculated by the Li family before, was imprisoned in the Li family's secret room, and was later rescued by a magical young man...... That's how it happened," Wei Wutian replied succinctly.
"I didn't expect that the Li family kidnapped you, this is unreasonable, this Li family's ambition is really not small, you came here to let our Zhang family support the city lord's mansion" Zhang Wuwu said in one word.
"That's right, I hope you can support the City Lord's Mansion and give the people a stable environment, you definitely don't want the Li family to take the entire Pyloric City for their own use, once the Pyloric City is ruled by the Li family, the people will be miserable!"
"Okay, for the sake of the people of Pyloric City, I have been worried about it, and our Zhang family is willing to support the City Lord's Mansion," Zhang Wuwu said awe-inspiringly.
"I must remember this kindness, I will leave first, and when this matter is over, our brothers will go have a drink."
"Be careful, your identity," Zhang said worriedly.
"Hmm," Wei Wutian suddenly disappeared into Zhang Fu after speaking.
Not long after Wei Wutian left, Zhang Wuwu urgently summoned his clansmen to prepare to go to the City Lord's Mansion.
On the other side, Han Xi didn't wake up until Chen, and he didn't dare to slack off after waking up, so he ran straight towards the City Lord's Mansion, but Wei Ziling didn't know Han Xi's identity, because Han Xi was recruited by secret guards, so Wei Ziling didn't summon Han Xi.
Han Xi could only stay in the secret base by himself, so bored, after a while, Wei Wutian came in, he saw Han Xi sitting here, so he sat directly next to Han Xi, there were five or six people in the secret base, all of them were recruited killers and intelligence officers.
When Han Xi saw Wei Wutian coming in, he deliberately moved his seat closer to him, the identities of these killers around him were still a mystery, and no one would have thought that there were any undercover agents from the Li family who had mixed in, so as a professional killer, everyone seemed cold, never spoke and moved easily, and his eyes were always secretly observing everything around him.
Han Xi motioned for Wei Wutian to go to the second floor, Han Xi went to the second floor first and returned to his room, Wei Wutian followed, the two locked the door, and arranged a barrier to prevent anyone from eavesdropping outside.
"How's it going?"
"Everything is going well, at present, there are already two people who support the City Lord's Mansion, the Scimitar Gate and the Zhang family, and there are some small families who also support the City Lord's Mansion, but we don't have a strong person in the Star Residence Realm here, I'm afraid there will be variables" Wei Wutian said worriedly, "It will take some time for me to recover to the Star Residence Realm."
"I have an elixir here that can allow you to instantly ascend to the Star Residence Realm, but the side effect is a bit big, that is, although you can reach the previous realm after taking the pill, but after the effect of the pill, you will lose the strength of the previous Star Residence Realm, and you can only reach the Supreme Star Gathering Realm, if you want to break through to the Star Residence Realm, it will take at least a year, and you also need an herb: Star Gathering Grass" Han Xi said seriously, "This is the Star Breaking Pill"
"And the Gathering Star Grass can only be found in extremely cold places, so it is very precious, if there is no Gathering Star Grass, you may stay at the peak of the Gathering Star Realm forever," Han Xi said.
Wei Wutian pondered for a while, took the pill and said to Han Xi, "I'm also old, and I will have to rely on you young people in the future, thank you, Brother Han, now we are sure to win this war."
"Don't you really regret it?"
"As long as I can protect the people, even if I go to the soup and the fire, if it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I wouldn't be alive now, please accept Wei's worship" Wei Wutian knelt down and expressed his gratitude to Han Xi.
"Please, City Lord Wei, it's all for the sake of thousands of people," Han Xi pulled Wei Wutian up and said.
The two talked about a lot of things, and there were still five or six hours before the evening, and there was a solemn atmosphere everywhere in the Pyloric City, as if a small spark could burn the whole city, and the streets were empty, and they looked lonely and desolate.
At this time, the Li family was discussing the matter of forcibly occupying the city lord's mansion tonight.
"Ancestor, now that Wei Wutian has fled, and we don't have his whereabouts for the time being, how can this be good?"
"The big secret room can allow a little hairy child to rescue people under his nose, and it can also let them get out of the secret room, what should you housekeepers do" The ancestor of the Li family slapped the table angrily, and the people below were trembling and didn't dare to make a sound.
"The matter has come to this point, complaining will not help, tonight we are going to set foot in the city lord's mansion, hang our Li family's flag on the city tower, a rat in the star realm can't turn the sky" The ancestor of the Li family said with a high look, "By the way, what's going on over there at the scimitar gate"
The elders in the audience were even more frightened, and even the head of the family didn't dare to speak out, if he knew that the scimitar gate had taken refuge in the city lord's mansion, he might not be able to save his life.
"Why don't you speak one by one, you say," said the ancestor, standing up and shaking his hand.
Li Hongtian walked out tremblingly, although he was the head of the family and his father, he was also very afraid of such a strong man, because the family here is respected by strength, and the weak eat the strong. "Father, the scimitar gate has been..."Li Hongtian said with a winch.
"What has already come? You say," the ancestor of the Li family was obviously angry.
As soon as the words of "have taken refuge in the City Lord's Mansion" fell, the ancestor of the Li family immediately became angry, and couldn't help but slap the table, and the table was shattered in an instant, and the people below were afraid and tried to avoid his eyes.
"What about the Zhang family" The ancestor of the Li family wanted to hear a good news, but what he didn't expect was that the Zhang family, who had always been neutral, had also taken refuge in the City Lord's Mansion, and now he was going crazy.
"Also take refuge in the City Lord's Mansion"
"What? You can't do things one by one, what else can I do, if it weren't for the Li family with me in charge, I would have been served a long time ago, you can have a snack, and you mess things up every time" The ancestor couldn't help it, and his temper surged up.
Just when everyone was being scolded, a man in black suddenly broke in, "Ancestor is angry, our plan is still there" This man in black was girly, and everyone saw that an assassin came in, and they were all ready to fight.
"Presumptuous, this is our Li family's honored guest, don't you hurry up and entertain them well" The ancestor of the Li family shouted at them.
"Yes, yes, father" Everyone hurriedly cleaned up the debris on the ground and brought a chair for the man in black to sit down.
"I won't sit down, I'll just talk about one thing, remember our agreement tonight, otherwise I can't guarantee that you will live until tomorrow" After saying that, the man in black disappeared in an instant.
"Father, this man is... Why do you dare to talk to you like this," Li Hongtian asked suspiciously.
"This person acts strangely, he comes and goes without a trace, his strength is far above us, not like the star cultivator of our Tang Imperial Kingdom, not something we can afford to provoke, and his purpose is the treasure of the town in the City Lord's Mansion, he will help us seize the City Lord's Mansion tonight"
"Then we don't have to be afraid, we have two Star Habitat Realms, and the opposite side is the Gathering Star Realm," Li Hongtian said sincerely.
"Tian'er, you are still young, some things are not as simple as imagined, you go down first to rectify the team, we will leave tonight, you all go down and prepare"
"Yes, send the ancestor" The Li family is going in and out, and the same is true for the city lord's mansion, it seems that this battle for the city is bound to happen, the guards of the city lord's mansion have urgently moved the residents near the city lord's mansion to the rear, in order to prevent their safety from being affected, this move has won a good public opinion for the city lord's mansion, and the so-called one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world.
Wei Wutian and Han Xi were walking down the street, and the residents had already evacuated from the city.
"A few days ago, it was a bustling and lively neighborhood, but now it is so cold, the war is really ruthless, and it is always these helpless ordinary people who suffer," Wei Wutian sighed.
"The battlefield can really destroy the originally prosperous and warm city, if there is no such power struggle in time, then it would be better," Han Xi replied. "War destroys not only a city, but also the harmonious world that people yearn for."
"I hope that after this war, the city of Pylorus can never fight and live and work in peace and contentment, and then I will be at ease."
Han Xi stopped, he felt a familiar aura lingering nearby, but after opening the Heavenly Eye Spiritual Eye, he didn't find anything, Han Xi hoped that it was an illusion.
"What's the matter, Little Brother Han" Wei Wutian asked.
"It's nothing, I'm wondering if there will be other mysterious forces on the other side in tonight's fight" Han Xi analyzed, "I always felt that there was a force snooping on me from the first time I came to Pyloric City, but I didn't find anything, maybe I thought too much."
"That's right, but we still have to be careful, the hole cards can't be easily revealed"
"You're right, we have to learn to be patient and force out all the hole cards on the opposite side," Han Xi said.
"Let's go back, the City Lord's Mansion should be in a hurry"
"Well, let's go"
Han Xi and Wei Wutian returned to the City Lord's Mansion, and they stood on the city wall, watching the surrounding terrain in case the enemy suddenly invaded.
"Brother Wei, are you also here to plan for tonight's war" At this time, Wei Ziling came to Wei Wutian's side.
