At this moment, the city lord Meng Qi actually came to the office of the principal Xuan Heng, there were rows of bookshelves in the office, as well as a large desk, which should be a place for office!

The headmaster stood by Meng Qi's side with a respectful face, as if he didn't dare to say more! In fact, although the nobles of Xingyuan City were all independent of each other, they were still specifically divided into gangs! Some people stood on the side of the city lord Meng Qi, and some people stood on the side of the army commander Ye Jianfeng, although this headmaster was not a nobleman, but as the headmaster of the school, he still had a certain amount of influence, so the city lord Meng Qi took this headmaster into his own gang!

The city lord usually takes care of this principal, and in some other aspects such as funds, he also tries to lean towards the school's side! Therefore, Principal Xuanheng naturally does not dare to offend his God of Wealth!

Meng Qi walked to the big chair in the principal's office and sat down! The principal sat on a smaller chair, and at this time Meng Qi spoke: "Principal Xuanheng, you should have participated in this incident throughout the whole process, tell me about it, what happened to this incident, and what does Ye Jianfeng know?"

Principal Xuan Heng didn't dare to hide it, he wasn't from Ye Jianfeng's gang, what were you talking to him for? So he told the city lord Meng Qi about the recent appearance of a cult in the school and a series of events after that!

City Lord Meng Qi frowned after hearing this, it seems that the people of the Holy Ghost Sect probably already know that they have a map hidden in the school, and Ye Jianfeng's officer also caught that green face, although this green face does not know as much as the deacon of the Holy Ghost Sect, but he should also know some of his own situation!

If this green face didn't resist Ye Jianfeng's torture and reveal some secrets, it would be terrible! Fortunately, he controlled that Fire Deacon Yang Qiming in his own hands in advance! Maybe the situation was not too bad! But he had to take the map, otherwise he would be snatched away by the people of the Holy Ghost Sect sooner or later! Once he lost the map, he would have no hope of winning!

Meng Qi nodded and said, "Okay, Principal Xuanheng, I already know your situation! In that case, now I order you to take out what I gave you before and hand it over to me! Then, there will be no task for you!"

Principal Xuan Heng nodded, he took out a small box from his bookshelf, this small box was densely packed, and at first glance it was a box for storing important things! Principal Xuan Heng fiddled left and right on it, and finally opened this small box!

He took out a small scroll, this small scroll was densely covered with various forms of patterns, and the imprints on it were already blurred, and at first glance it was something relatively old! In fact, Xuan Heng didn't know what it was, but Meng Qi told him that this was a very important thing, and it must be kept carefully!

After Meng Qi got what he wanted, he nodded with satisfaction, it seems that although he was targeted by the people of the Holy Ghost Sect, but because of a few little ghosts, he was not lost, which can be regarded as a blessing!

Meng Qi then talked to the headmaster for a few more words, and then hurriedly left with the scroll, returning to his office, the City Lord's Mansion!

Tonight in the conference room of the City Lord's Mansion, it can be described as a sleepless night, because today happens to be the high-level inside the City Lord's Mansion, as well as the high-level of the army, and the important nobles of Xingyuan City! A meeting to discuss how to act next, because the attack on the school has really too great an impact! It has almost caused chaos in the entire Xingyuan City, and these people must gather together to discuss the relevant policies in the next step to prevent the situation from further expanding!

At the conference table, Ye Jianfeng got up and slapped the table angrily, shaking some fruits, teacups, and dishes on it, making a loud noise!

"I said, City Lord, now that the situation has reached this level, don't you take action to curb the actions of these cults? I really can't understand what you are thinking, whether you are from this side of the kingdom or from the side of the Holy Ghost Sect!"

Ye Jianfeng's adjutant next to him, Wuya saw Ye Jianfeng's indignant look, and quickly pulled the corner of his clothes, reminding the other party that this was a conference room, and asked him not to make too outrageous moves!

City Lord Meng Qi saw Ye Jianfeng's angry look, but he didn't look angry at all! He said slowly, "I said, Commander Ye, I can understand that you are thinking about the safety of the residents of Xingyuan City, but I also have my own considerations! The strength of the Holy Ghost Sect is too strong, and now with the strength of our Xingyuan City, we can't compete with the other party at all!" I think we should adopt a roundabout strategy now, first silently consume the strength of the Holy Ghost Sect, and when the strength of the Holy Ghost Sect is weakened to a certain extent, we are taking the initiative to attack and kill them! Taking rash action will only increase our losses and will not do us any good!"

But after listening to the city lord's explanation, Ye Jianfeng still had a reluctant look: "Okay, I can understand the delaying strategy, but what about the action? I only see dead people in our Xingyuan City now, except for the people of our army, the City Lord's Mansion has no action, even if it weakens the strength of the other party, then it should take some action, hold the troops still, what is the delay strategy!"

But the city lord still patiently explained to the other party: "Commander Ye, that's just that you didn't see the actions of our city lord's mansion, our city lord's mansion has actually made a lot of efforts in secret, including the deployment of materials, the distribution of food to the residents of the city, and the maintenance of law and order in Xingyuan City, the radical and violent methods used by your army, and our city lord's mansion doing some logistics work, isn't it also a support for you?"

At this time, the other nobles sitting on both sides could not sit still, and began to accuse each other, and they naturally wanted to speak to their own people, who originally belonged to different forces on both sides! This night, the quarrel between the people on both sides was extremely fierce, and they quarreled for two hours from ten o'clock in the evening before they all returned to their residences with a dissatisfied face!

Ye Jianfeng was holding back his anger today, and he was naturally in a very bad mood! He didn't even put on a very good face when he treated his subordinates! Ye Jianfeng's first words when he returned to the army headquarters were: "Wuya, have all the people I sent out have sent back the news? Have you informed the high-ranking officials of Wang Cheng of the situation in Xingyuan City?"

Wuya shook his head and said, "No, those people we sent out lost contact with all of them within a day, and not a single message came back, I don't know if they met someone from the City Lord's Mansion or someone from the Holy Ghost Sect!

After hearing this, Ye Jianfeng became even more worried in his heart, all of his people were the elite of the army, and there were ten people sent out! If one or two people were missing, it would be understandable, but if they all disappeared, this would be a bit abnormal! And he had a hunch in his heart, this city lord must not have any good intentions towards Xingyuan City, and in the heart of this city lord, I am afraid that there is a shocking secret waiting for him to excavate!

At this time, Wuya put forward his own suggestion: "I said, Commander, why don't we go on a trip in person, although these people can't do it! But with your strength, it shouldn't be a problem to bring a few good players and fight a bloody road!"

However, after listening to Wuya's words, Ye Jianfeng raised an objection: "No, I can't leave now! This city lord Meng Qi, the reason why he is not doing too much is because he is here to restrain him! If he leaves, I am afraid that this Meng Qi will quickly control the situation in Xingyuan City, and it is even possible to completely control the top of the army, what will happen once he leaves, it is really hard to say, let's see what the situation is talking about first!"

However, at this time, Ye Jianfeng seemed to suddenly remember something else, and said to Wuya: "By the way, didn't we arrest a high-ranking person of the Holy Ghost Sect named Qingmian?

Wu Ya suddenly seemed to remember such a thing, and said: "Ah, you said that person! Although this person was very stiff-mouthed at first and didn't want to reveal anything, but after our torture to extract a confession, he finally interrogated and found out something!"

"First of all, this city lord never seems to have contact with the high-level nobles in the royal city, and once other nobles want to come to him as a guest, he will also shirk it in every possible way, which is very strange! And this Xingyuan City, the city lord Meng Qi, not only does not let other people come to him, he never communicates in other cities, and all communication affairs are taken care of by other subordinates!"

"The second point is that although the city lord has never clashed head-on with the people of the Holy Ghost Sect, he has never stopped spying on the daily affairs of the Holy Ghost Sect! It seems that this city lord wants to know the situation inside the Holy Ghost Sect very much! If the city lord is a spy of the Holy Ghost Sect, it doesn't seem to be quite unreasonable!"

"It's also a little strange that although the city lord allows the Holy Ghost Sect to act arbitrarily, it doesn't seem like he's doing nothing, he does do a lot of logistics to help Xingyuan City maintain stability! But if the other party really thinks about the safety of Xingyuan City, it doesn't seem to be very like! It feels like he's delaying time!"

After hearing this, Ye Jianfeng was puzzled, what was going on, this city lord had almost cut off all contact with the outside world, and he was not a traitor of the Holy Ghost Sect, and he was still delaying time! What was his purpose, and what was the problem!

After listening to the endless story, Ye Jianfeng took the other party out, and sat alone on his big back chair, thinking about what had happened in the recent past! It's so strange, what is the identity of this city lord, and what is his purpose, tonight, for Ye Jianfeng, is destined to be a sleepless night!
