Chapter Forty-Six: Stalling for Time!
Looking at the fiery red-haired lions below, Nangong Yi was slightly stunned.
The patriarchs of the major families looked at the lion surrounded by several lions, and the lion with shiny hair and strong body was also distracted for a while.
"Flame Lion King!" Nangong Yi felt a slight bitterness in his mouth.
How can I meet this disaster star!
The fiery lion, a relatively powerful race on the outskirts of the Broken Soul Mountains.
Warlike, cruel, powerful!
These are all synonymous with them!
It was already obvious that this spirit beast tide was caused by the Flame Lion King!
"City Lord, how are we going to fight?" Liu De asked in a condensed voice while standing behind Nangong Yi.
The voice is resolute but sad!
The Flame Lion King's cultivation reached the eighth layer of Jindan.
And Nangong Yicai, the sixth layer of Jindan, coupled with the amazing defense of spirit beasts, spirit beasts are usually more difficult to deal with than humans of the same level.
This means that the war has been over since it even began.
There's no way they're going to win against the Flame Lion King!
Without speaking, Nangong Yi quietly made a gesture to Liu De and the others with his hands behind his back.
Liu De immediately understood, then quietly got off the city wall, and rushed to the city lord's mansion to get the things that the city lord asked him to take.
"The Lion King, I know you hear and understand what I say.
You caused this spirit beast tide, and although I don't know why you did this, you must have a reason.
Don't go to war yet!I'll go down now, let's talk about it and see what you need!" Nangong Yi shouted.
Then he went down the wall alone.
"Open the city gate!" Nangong Yi took a deep breath, and his face became serious.
He must not show cowardice!
As soon as he has a trace of confidence, the city will be finished.
"Lord Castle, you can't open it!" the soldier pleaded with horror on his face.
What if the spirit beast suddenly attacks when the city gate is opened?
The spirit beast drove straight in, and the city that never sleeps may be directly destroyed!
"Open, this is an order!" Nangong Yi said coldly.
The more ruthless he must be, and he must ensure that no one dares to disobey his orders.
The soldiers, despite their reluctance, began to open the gates.
Outside the city gate was a fierce spirit beast, and when they saw the city gate open, they all stood up and prepared to rush in.
When Nangong Yi stepped out of the city gate, the spirit beast also moved.
Several wolves flew up in front of them, and the cold light in their mouths made people shudder.
No one can imagine how much damage this bite can cause!
A cold snort! The wave of air swept away in an instant, and before the wolf could land, it flew upside down, flying sideways ten meters away as if it had suffered a heavy blow.
Lying on all fours on the ground, he whimpered, obviously seriously injured and had no strength to fight again.
"The spirit beasts of the fusion realm also dare to be presumptuous in front of me?!!" Nangong Yi's face was as usual, as if the blow just now was not from him.
Seeing this scene, the surrounding spirit beasts kept rubbing their claws on the ground and wanted to attack, but they were afraid of the incomprehensible situation just now!
The Flame Lion King gave an order to these spirit beasts.
The spirit beast that was blocking in front of Nangong Yi quickly retreated from his side after hearing the roar, making way in front of him.
The Flame Lion King wants to see him!
"Close the city gate, no matter what happens for a while, don't open it!" After giving the order, Nangong Yi walked towards the center of the spirit beast.
The road in front of him had been out of the way, and on the left and right sides of the road were squatting spirit beasts.
There is no formation, and it looks very scattered.
The more you go inside, the more powerful the spirit beasts around you become!
The spirit beasts of the fusion realm have disappeared, and all the spirit beasts in front of them are all from the Jindan realm.
There are probably dozens, hundreds, and so on!
Although the realm is not high by about one or two floors, these quantities are enough for people in the city to drink a pot.
Continuing to move forward, I finally came to the center of the spirit beast tide and saw the lion king surrounded by a group of lions.
The current Nangong Yi is gambling with his own life, as long as the Flame Lion King gives an order, it is absolutely impossible for him to get out alive in this position!
"Hello the Fire Lion King. Nangong Yi said neither humbly nor arrogantly.
The Fire Lion King's closed eyes, which felt comfortable being scratched by other lions, opened instantly.
His eyes were full of indifference and cunning.
Although he can't speak yet, his IQ may be close to that of a human!
Roar, the Flame Lion King roared in a low voice.
The lions around him also retreated.
The Flame Lion King stood up and walked slowly towards Nangong Yi.
To say that it can't be fake, now Nangong Yi's heart is extremely nervous, but his face is still silent.
The roar of the Flame Lion King fell, and a starling landed in front of Nangong Yi from the sky.
Roar, roar, roar!
Starling opened his mouth and said: "Hello human, we don't really want to hurt you, as long as you are willing to hand over my king's magic weapon that was stolen by you humans, we will retreat immediately." ”
The spirit beast Starling is a bird, similar to the parrot on the earth, and has a very high IQ, because the difference in the throat allows him to speak when he is building a foundation realm.
That's why the Flame Lion King asked him to be the translator.
Nangong Yi frowned slightly and said, "What magic weapon?"
Roar, roar, roar!
"A round thing, glowing red. Starling said.
In fact, this thing is a bead, which was found by the Fire Lion King from a secret realm.
At that time, he found that this bead contained a very powerful power, and if he could absorb the power in it, he might be able to break through to the ninth layer of Jindan in one fell swoop.
It can even impact the Yuanying realm.
After that, he took the bead back to his cave and put it away.
Then he went out to forage for food, but when he came back he found that the beads were missing and there were human footprints on the ground.
He thought that it was a human who stole the beads, and there was only one city within a radius of a hundred miles, the city that never sleeps, and under the drive of anger, the Fire Lion King launched a wave of spirit beasts.
............
"I'm sorry!" Nangong Yi shook his head.
"I've never seen what you're talking about, so give me some time and I'll go back and ask if anyone knows what you're talking about!"
Roar, roar, roar!
"Yes, we can give you time to think about it.
But it's only half a day at most, and if we don't find it within half a day, then we'll break through the city gate and look for it ourselves!"
"Half a day?" Nangong Yi laughed angrily: "Never Sleepless City says that it is big or small, you let me find what you want in half a day? Are you joking with me?"
The Flame Lion King stared at Nangong Yi without a trace of emotion in his eyes.
Time passes slowly in this moment.
Roar, roar, roar!
"My king said that he would only give you half a day, and if you can't do it, it's your own business!
And do you think my king doesn't know those little tricks in your heart?
Don't think it's too pretty!"
Starling fluttered his wings and said proudly.
"Go quickly, the king has no patience to talk to you anymore!"
Damn it!
At first, Nangong Yi thought that he would be able to hold out until the reinforcements arrived, but he didn't expect that his idea had already been seen through by the Flame Lion King!
"Okay, half a day, half a day!" After speaking, Nangong Yi turned around and left.
He couldn't stay any longer, and it would be bad if the Fire Lion King saw that he wanted to spend half a day without delaying the time.
............
"All be vigilant!If there is any abnormal movement of the spirit beast, notify me immediately!You can attack directly if necessary!" Back in the city, Nangong Yi gave an order to the soldiers.
After that, he took the patriarchs of the major families and walked towards his city lord's mansion.
"Round, red, what's that, I've never heard of it!" Liu De was a little frenzied, pulling his hair with both hands.
The originally neat long white hair was a little messy by him.
Liu De had already obtained the magic weapons collected by the city lord, but when he went back, he bumped into the city lord who was coming back.
Knowing that the war would not start for the time being, he also returned.
Now he's tormented by what the Flame Lion King is looking for.
This Fire Lion King also has little brains, and he has given such a clue how to find it? And it is not clear if someone in the city that never sleeps stole it!
The rest were also silent.
"Uncle Liu, don't worry, the most important thing now is to notify the whole city quickly.
If that person is really in the city, he will be willing to hand it over. That's good!" Nangong Yi pinched his brows and said in a low tone.
"Now I can only try it first. Chen Chen also agreed with Nangong Yi's approach.
After all, that's by far the best way to do it!
"Then I'll go find someone to inform you, and you can continue to figure out a way here. Liu Yan stood up and walked out.
"Wait for me, I'll follow you too, there are many people with great strength!" Li Jin also shouted in the back.
But is that how much power is used?
An hour later, Liu Yan and Li Jin returned.
"They all said that they hadn't seen what the lion king wanted. The two looked at each other and said in unison.
"Well, I didn't think I'd just settle it. "Thinking about coming to Nangong Yi, he has long been mentally prepared.
But Liu De was so anxious that he walked back and forth in the lobby.
Looking at Liu De, who was wandering around, the people were also very irritable in their hearts.
"It seems that there is only one way. Nangong Yi took out two wooden sticks from the box behind him and said to everyone.
At this time, everyone found that there was an inconspicuous box on the table behind Nangong Yi.
The box was the same color as the table, a quaint yellow.
What is this? Liu De was also puzzled, although the city lord told him to take this box, he didn't know what it contained.
Seeing everyone's doubts, Nangong Yi said: "This magic weapon is called a twin lot, put him in a bamboo tube and shake it to make a lot, and the same people can transfer power to each other."
Time can last for an hour. ”
Nangong Yi paused and continued: "However, it can only be used by five people, and the user will reduce his life span by ten years. ”
At first, everyone was happy in their hearts, but when they heard the last sentence, the joy in their hearts was diluted.
Pay ten years of life, just for this half of the odds.
No matter how you look at it, it's not worth it.
"This is the only way I can think of!" Looking at everyone's somewhat solemn looks, Nangong Yi said bitterly.
Exchanging ten years of life for this moment's strength, this was the only way he could fight against the Flame Lion King.
"Isn't it just ten years of life, anyway, there are no years to live, and it won't be a big deal in a few years!" Liu De picked up the wooden skewer and put it in the bamboo tube and shook it.
"It's nothing to sacrifice for the people of this city! I'll take a sample first!"
The wooden skewer falls out, and the sign says on it.
Seeing this, Nangong Yi breathed a sigh of relief.
Signing means that the two people can use each other's powers.
At this moment, a white light emerged from Liu De's body and merged into the wooden stick.
Liu De's face aged at a visible rate, and he looked ten years old in just a few seconds.
