Chapter 264: The Earl

Qi Heng and Yan Nangui's mood at this time can be said to be very complicated.

After all, the two of them and Chu Xiong, who was already dead, had the original purpose of appearing here tonight to kill Xiao Ke. But they didn't expect to encounter the advance team of zombies by mistake, and they had no choice but to fight side by side with Xiao Ke temporarily.

There was a common enemy just now, and in order to deal with the zombies, everyone didn't feel any problem fighting together.

Now that the zombie problem has been solved temporarily, Qi Heng and Yan Nangui are a little cramped and uneasy when facing Xiao Ke.

Especially now that there are a large number of steel warriors surrounded by Xiao Ke, and judging from Xiao Ke's strong killing of Asura just now, if Xiao Ke now has more than 5,000 steel warriors with Qin Bing, Lin Hao, and Ling Feng, and wants to settle accounts with Qi Heng and Yan Nangui after the autumn, Qi Heng and Yan Nangui feel that they can't resist at all.

This is also the reason why Qi Heng and Yan Nangui are nervous when facing Xiao Ke now, after all, it is a human habit to settle accounts after the autumn.

But Xiao Ke's words made the two of them feel a little relieved, because listening to the meaning of Xiao Ke's words, they were obviously informal, and they didn't take the previous grievances to heart, but were ready to start from the overall situation, not considering personal petty grievances, and only thinking about how to meet the catastrophe that the lawless land would face together.

Since Xiao Ke came to Bai Ze City, Xiao Ke has begun to get along with things related to zombies, basically the Double Eagle Business Alliance, Qin Liao, and even Chu Xiong's bad relations with Xiao Ke are all caused by human trafficking to zombies.

At the beginning, Qi Heng's several overlords agreed with Chu Xiong's opinion, Xiao Ke has the identity of an imperial background, and the purpose of coming here is not simple, to suppress the opponent in the name of colluding with zombies.

Now, Qi Heng and Yan Nangui finally believe that Xiao Ke has nothing to do with suppressing and suppressing opponents, Xiao Ke simply hates zombies, and simply wants to destroy zombies and protect mankind.

The two couldn't help but feel happy and convinced by Xiao Ke's behavior, and at the same time were impressed by Xiao Ke's disdain to care about personal grievances, the two glanced at each other, and suddenly said in unison: "Lord Xiao, we didn't know Taishan before, and you deliberately couldn't get along with us, so we made some disrespectful behaviors to you, and we now solemnly apologize to you and make amends, and at the same time intend to accept any punishment from you." ”

When Xiao Ke heard this, he couldn't cry or laugh: "What are the two brothers talking about, now that the zombie army is about to invade the land of lawlessness, when the wind and rain are drifting, we should unite even more." The little contradiction between everyone before is not worth mentioning, and I hope that in the future, I can fight side by side with you. ”

Together, there is definitely a chance!

Because the area of Bai Ze City is relatively close to the country of death, if the zombie army really invades, then Bai Ze City will definitely bear the brunt, Xiao Ke and Qi Heng, Yan Nangui and others all belong to the Bai Ze overlord, and they are all one of the six members of the Bai Ze Council, they are all the order makers and maintainers of Bai Ze City, and the responsibility of protecting Bai Ze City is naturally on their shoulders.

Therefore, the opportunity to fight side by side is not only there, but it will come soon, if everyone is not united, Bai Zecheng will be finished directly, and their several overlords, if there is no foundation of Bai Zecheng, it will be nothing.

Qi Heng and Yan Nangui glanced at each other again, making eye contact with each other, and seemed to have reached some opinion.

Qi Heng opened his mouth and said, "We also hope to continue to fight side by side with you, Lord Xiao." ”

Yan Nangui: "Now that the zombie advance team has appeared, it is estimated that the main army of zombies will also come at any time, and our Bai Zecheng will bear the brunt of it at that time." And our six overlords of Bai Ze, Brother Chu has died in battle tonight, I think it is necessary to select a city lord at this critical moment to lead the Bai Ze Council and withstand this catastrophe. ”

Qi Heng immediately said: "Yes, I think so too, and I think the most suitable person to be the lord of Bai Ze City, the most suitable person to lead Bai Ze City, is you, Lord Xiao, I highly recommend you to be the city lord." ”

Yan Nangui also said: "Yes, I also think that Lord Xiao is the best candidate, please don't live up to our expectations." ”

Qin Bing, Ling Feng, Lin Hao, and Xiao Ke's right-hand men, when they heard Qi Heng and Yan Nangui's words at this time, they were all dumbfounded, before tonight, Qi Heng and these people were still planning to kill Xiao Ke like this day and night, but now these people actually plan to support Xiao Ke as the city lord of Bai Ze together?!

Bai Ze City used to have a city lord, but in recent years, several overlords of Bai Ze Council are not very different in strength from each other, and no one has an overwhelming advantage, so the position of city lord has always been empty, and all affairs are discussed by the six overlords of Bai Ze City.

This time, Qi Heng and Nan Yangui actually offered to let Xiao Ke serve as the city lord of Bai Ze, which made Xiao Ke himself a little stunned.

However, Xiao Ke immediately understood why Qi Heng and Yan Nangui did this.

First of all, Qi Heng and Yan Nangui were convinced by Xiao Ke's open-mindedness regardless of his previous suspicions, and secondly, Xiao Ke's current strength is indeed far superior to Qi Heng and their overlords. What's more, although Xiao Ke said that he didn't care about his previous suspicions, Qi Heng and Yan Nangui felt that it was still very taboo to plot to kill Xiao Ke before, so they wanted to remedy it and curry favor with Xiao Ke, so as not to settle accounts after Xiao Ke fell off. Therefore, they strongly advocated that Xiao Ke serve as the lord of Bai Ze City, give Xiao Ke a great benefit, and make up for their mistakes.

Of course, there is another very important reason, that is, Qi Heng and they all know that the zombie army is coming, Bai Zecheng is the first to bear the brunt, and Bai Zecheng really needs a super strong person like Xiao Ke to stand up and lead everyone to resist, so that everyone can have a chance to carry it.

It was precisely under various factors that prompted Qi Heng and Yan Nangui to make this decision.

Xiao Ke said lightly: "Let's go back to Bai Zecheng and discuss this matter!" ”

Xiao Ke returned to Bai Ze City with Qi Heng and Yan Nangui, and the first thing Xiao Ke did when he returned to Bai Ze City was to send someone to send Asura's corpse emperor brain nucleus, as well as the latest news, to the palace of Qilin City in Zhongzhou, and present it to His Majesty, so that His Majesty can decide.

A few days later, Jiang Ning saw the zombie brain nucleus of the Asura Corpse Emperor in the imperial study, and also read Xiao Ke's battle report.

Jiang Ning was surprised and delighted, surprised that the news was true, the zombies were indeed preparing to invade the landless land, and the joy was that Xiao Ke did not disappoint him, let alone lose the face of the emperor's family, this time he actually intercepted the advance team of zombies and killed a corpse emperor.

Jiang Ning said to the eunuch Li Gonggong: "Pass on my will, Xiao Ke, the commander of the steel war group, has made meritorious contributions in intercepting the zombie advance team, and also beheaded a corpse emperor, raising the prestige of the empire, and I named him the Earl of Cangwu, with 700 households." ”

"Yes!"

Gonggong Li couldn't help but be a little envious of Xiao Ke, Xiao Ke had only been knighted before, and he was only a ninth-class baron before, but this time he directly skipped the eighth-class viscount and was directly named a seventh-class count.

At a young age, he became an imperial earl, which is really promising!
