The tallest and most splendid building in Pengcheng is the City Lord's Mansion.

In the main hall, a figure was prostrate on the ground. He was wearing gray armor and said respectfully: "City Lord, a caravan from Annam entered the city today. If there is no accident, it is very likely that it is the person who gave our attention above. ”

"Huh?"

A tall figure sat on the Taishi's chair. His expression was cold, his eyes were indifferent, and there was a terrifying aura looming all over his body. His name is Zhou Xiong, and he is the city lord personally appointed by the empire. He has been in this position for ten years, and holds the most important authority in Pengcheng.

"They came faster than expected. ”

Zhou Xiong muttered softly, with a touch of solemnity in his eyes. Although he had already been informed by the people above, he still felt a little apprehensive when he heard that the caravan had entered the city.

The letter clearly explained the identities of several people in the caravan, and each one was more surprisingly coming from than the other. That's all, and he didn't have much weakness. At present, the most difficult choice is to clearly explain in the letter that the imperial family does not want to see several of them leave Pengcheng safe and sound.

"City Lord, what should we do next?"

"What should I do?"

Zhou Xiong laughed at himself, stared at his henchmen who had followed him for ten years, and asked rhetorically, "What do you think I should do?"

"That's not what the subordinates meant. ”

Hearing this, the soldier hurriedly shook his head. Although his own master is loyal, if he thinks it is no problem to deal with ordinary people. But they are facing several descendants of the eight major families, and there is even a young head of the Liu Mansion, if they really have any mistakes in Pengcheng, even if they have the protection of the imperial family, it won't be long before Zhou Xiong and the entire Pengcheng will disappear from everyone's sight.

There is no doubt about that.

The eight great families have stood in the empire for thousands of years, and even the imperial family is afraid of them. Although he is the city lord of Pengcheng and has thousands of elite soldiers and horses in his hands, he doesn't dare to do it easily in the face of so many behemoths, and he doesn't dare to do it lightly.

"The Imperial Clan's side also needs an explanation. What a nuisance. Shaking his head, Zhou Xiong's brows furrowed even deeper.

"The city lord's subordinates have a suggestion. ”

"Say it. ”

After a moment of silence, the half-kneeling figure said softly: "There is a person imprisoned in the prison, why don't you make a deal with him and let him do it on his behalf." ”

"You mean ......"

The essence was bright, and Zhou Xiong's eyes flickered. Because of the pressure of the imperial family, he had to make a move, but he couldn't. If someone else acts on his behalf, even if this caravan from Annan is destroyed, he will not be able to trace himself.

"You go ahead and do it. ”

I don't know how long it has been, Zhou Xiong said slowly.

"The subordinates obeyed. ”

......

As soon as Liu Yang came out of the house, he saw that many people in the caravan were already active in the courtyard.

Many people in this caravan are indeed figures from the Annan City Chamber of Commerce, but they have a lot to do with the Li family, so they successfully came to Pengcheng in the mix.

"Master, you're awake. ”

A lean man spoke respectfully, he seemed to have been outside for a long time, and there was a lot of dew on his body.

"What's your name?"

"My name is Liu Shijiu, and the shopkeeper arranged for me to run errands for you. ”

Liu Yang's face did not change, but he was a little satisfied in his heart. Liu Fu is really careful in his work. A few days ago, he left Liu's Mansion a few days ago without any of his subordinates. Several clan elders once strongly demanded to follow, but they were all refused.

If the clan elders followed, they would certainly be able to better guarantee their safety, but now the Liu Mansion is very weak and cannot do without any clan elder taking care of the overall situation. If it was another ordinary subordinate, because this time it was very dangerous, Liu Yang was afraid of any losses, so he didn't let him follow.

"Breakfast has been arranged, is the head of the house going over to eat now?"

"I'm not hungry. ”

After pondering for a moment, Liu Yang asked him softly: "You have followed Liu Fu all the year round, and you should be very clear about the situation in Pengcheng, so you might as well tell me." ”

"Since the head of the family asked, I will introduce it to you. Regarding Liu Yang's question, Liu Shijiu seems to have expected it a long time ago.

"Pengcheng seems to be strict, but the security inside is very chaotic, because most of the people in the city are outlaws who go up the mountain to hunt demon beasts, so there are fights from time to time. ”

"Now the most powerful force in Pengcheng belongs to the City Lord's Mansion, and there are other three major gangs, the Sky Eagle Gang, the Haisha Gang, and the Vicious Dog Gang. These three gangs are all spontaneously organized by outlaws in the city, and they belong to the scattered cultivation forces that huddle together for warmth, although they have no background, but because there are many outlaws in them, they act ruthlessly and decisively, so that many people dare not provoke easily. ”

"What is the current city lord's cultivation?"

"City Lord Zhou Xiong used to be a powerhouse in the Fourth Realm, and now no one has seen him make a move for five or six years. In terms of cultivation, even the people in the City Lord's Mansion are difficult to guess. ”

"The head of the house seems to be very concerned about the city lord. ”

Liu Shijiu was a little confused, not knowing why Liu Yang was so concerned about the city lord of Pengcheng.

"Nothing, just casually mentioned. Shaking his head, Liu Yang didn't explain much. The city lord of Pengcheng, it is rumored that this person is a hand-picked person of the imperial family. If their identities are revealed, maybe the other party will do something wrong, so Liu Yang asked casually.

Suddenly, there was a sharp sound of breaking through the air.

Liu Yang raised his chin, and a look of surprise appeared on his face. His pupils constricted, and his eyes were full of bows and arrows that covered the sky.

The black iron arrow was thick and cold, slicing through the void and crashing down like a meteorite. Whether it is a hard courtyard wall or a thick house, it is difficult to resist.

"Enemy attack!"

The roar was short and urgent, and more than a dozen figures appeared in the air. The invincible arrow turned into a toy in front of them, and a large piece of it could be shot with a single stretch of hand.

This kind of black iron arrow is to deal with the demon beasts on the mountain. Each one weighs several pounds and is equipped with a heavy bow for great penetration.

But no matter how many arrows there are, in front of more than a dozen abyss-like figures, they are all shattered and difficult to fall half.

They are the Li family, the Sun family, and the strong people who followed the Feng family, and several of them are as thick as the sea, which makes it difficult for Liu Yang to see through any realm. They reacted quickly, and they blocked all the arrows in a flash of lightning, and no one was injured for the time being.

"Humph!"

There was a muffled snort, like a thunderous explosion. Several shadows swept like big birds, they didn't fly through the sky, just with the power of bouncing, they were able to sweep more than 20 zhang, obviously cultivators with extremely powerful physical bodies and realms.

Especially the first one, veiled but an old man in terms of size. He has a very deep aura. Far away, the heavens and the earth roared with their hands, forming a wave-like energy that bombarded the caravan all over the world.

"Boom!"

At this moment, outside the courtyard, I don't know when a dense crowd of people will appear. Each of them, dressed in soft armor made of animal skins and carrying huge sharp weapons, poured over like a tide.

"Fight!"

A roar, short and quick. The caravan guards, who had been scattered, quickly formed into a formation and blocked the entrance of the courtyard.

There are several elite guards in the caravan, although there are only a few dozen people, but each of them is powerful enough to be ten of them.

"What's going on?"

Li Qianqian and the others appeared, looking at the hundreds of murderous figures, their faces were also very embarrassed.

"It's interesting, I don't know if it's alive or dead. Sun Jiu snorted lightly and made the first move. Although she is a woman, she is very domineering in her hands. The true yuan is rolling, like a Valkyrie. With one punch, several people were knocked away.

"I'm going to help her. Feng Dao stepped forward with an iron spear and a grim face.

Although the other party also had strong people, after Sun Jiu and Feng Dao, two demons, joined the battle group, the situation immediately turned upside down.

Demon-level characters cannot be judged by realm. Whether it is talent or means, it is very terrifying, and the strength of the full force is definitely enough to fight against the powerhouses of the fourth realm.

"These people are all veiled, and if there is no accident, it seems that our identities have been exposed. Li Qianqian's beautiful eyes flowed, and there was a touch of solemnity in her voice.

"Could it be someone from the City Lord's Mansion?" Liu Yang's face was also a little unnatural. For several days, they have kept a low profile, and they were attacked and killed by others early this morning when they arrived in Pengcheng yesterday, apparently revealing their whereabouts.

"I don't know. ”

"But these people are very strong. Li Qianqian frowned, and her eyes fell on the first short old man.

This old man's aura is compelling, and he has already shaken off several family masters. There are two of them who are characters from the fourth realm of their Li family, but they were injured by the other party in the face, so you can imagine how terrifying the strength is.

The house collapsed, and a fierce battle broke out between the two cultivators. In the middle of breathing, someone died of blood. Liu Yang and Li Qianqian didn't rush to make a move, there were a lot of people on the other side, and they didn't know if there were other strong people in the secret.

The two were ready to deal with other unexpected situations, after all, they didn't have the slightest information about the origin of these killers.

"Bang!"

Picking up a figure, Feng Dao suddenly noticed. He subconsciously took a step back, narrowly avoiding a knife ray.

"The response was quick. ”

The man with the silver knife came slowly, his whole body wrapped in a black robe. Only a pair of cold eyes were revealed.

"Who are you? How dare you attack us? ”

"Who's it, go to the underworld and ask." ”

He is very murderous, and when he lifts his knife, he slashes horizontally. A touch of cold light exploded several bloody rays. The caravan guards, who could not dodge, died on the spot.

Feng Dao's eyes were sharp, and the iron spear was like a dragon shattering the blade, and the residual strength of the knife was undiminished, stabbing at a very tricky and weird angle.

"Bang!"

The silver long knife trembled slightly, and the black-robed man took a few steps back. His eyes lit up slightly, and he snorted lightly: "I have a little ability, and I deserve to know your name." ”

"You don't deserve it. ”

Feng Dao snorted, the iron spear was like a dragon, and his energy was rolling. The whole person was like an awakened beast, with a terrifying and violent aura appearing on his body.

"You pick a handsome little guy. I'll pick a little girl!"

A soft voice sounded, and a woman stood not far away, dressed in red tulle, with smooth and fair skin and delicate facial features. Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and the corners of her mouth curled up, as if with a hint of coldness.

She didn't know when she appeared, but as soon as she raised her hand, there was a starry sky that enveloped Feng Jiu, who was fighting.

Each starlight was so brilliant that the guards around who couldn't dodge had time to scream before they turned into a blood mist and dispersed.

She came step by step, her body was light, and her face hidden under gauze seemed to show a smile. With the autumn water, he stared at Feng Jiu playfully.

"Huh?"

Feng Jiu grinned and directly responded to her with terrifying energy.

The man with the knife fought with Feng Dao, and the woman in red who appeared separately was with Sun Jiudou.

"Master of the family, otherwise, I'll call the Tiejipu brothers to come and support now. Liu Shijiu's face turned a little pale, and the battle in the courtyard became more and more intense. Moreover, the other party came prepared, and there were actually strong people who could compete with Sun Jiu and Feng Dao.

"No, it's useless for them to come. From the moment they saw the man with the knife and the woman in red appear, both Liu Yang and Li Qianqian's faces were a little complicated. Judging from the qi machine alone, the former and both of them are actually very profound, and they are very likely to be powerhouses in the fourth realm.

"Brother Liu, it seems that we should also take action. Saying this, Li Qianqian took a step forward, and a powerful qi machine loomed.

"Wait. ”

Suddenly, Liu Yang stopped her.

"How ......"
