In the end, Nangong Yi still failed to leave Yun Tao and Ye Qitian.

Seeing the two of them leave the City Lord's Mansion with a smile and a smile, Nangong Yi chuckled lightly, with a hint of envy in his eyes.

Years ago, he was the same, with hope for the world.

But reality taught him a hard lesson.

In fact, it stands to reason that Nangong Yi should go out to see them off, but his health is really not good, so he can only let them go by themselves.

Don't look at his majesty last night, to be honest, in fact, he is simply a strong outsider, and he can do his best, but he really can't move much in daily life.

It's just a stretch at night.

"It's time to take precautions. Nangong Yi untied the bandages on his body, and blood slowly flowed out.

Look at the wound, the place that had been healing has been torn open again.

But Nangong Yi shouted at the door as if he didn't see it.

"Someone!"

Stomp, stomp!

Neat footsteps sounded, and a group of Nangong Yi's private soldiers hurried over when they heard the sound.

Then he put one hand on his chest and knelt directly on one knee.

"Please give the city lord an order!"

Listening to the serious voices of the soldiers outside the house, Nangong Yi couldn't help but think of the spirit beast attack some time ago, and now these soldiers kneeling outside were all veterans who survived at that time!

Although he was injured now, he was much luckier than the soldiers who died in that spirit beast tide.

"Your soldiers are divided into two routes, go to Sunset City and Ming City, inform the city lord, and say that the city lord of Nangong has something important to discuss with them, so ask them to come here. ”

A faint voice came from the house, and the soldiers took the order and immediately began to move.

"Well, I hope it won't be the same as I thought. ”

Don't look at what Nangong Yi said, in fact, he probably knew why he was assassinated.

What the Assassin said was true.

The prince of Youguo was originally the established monarch's successor, but he didn't expect that for some reason, he actually let Youruo monarch ascend the throne.

To say that the prince does not hold a grudge is absolutely false.

It would not be a surprise to make a move to kill the king and seize the throne now.

As for why Nangong Yi is so sure?

The supporter behind the Xiaoyao Sect is the prince, and that alone speaks for itself.

Moreover, the matter that Nangong Yi sent someone to investigate half a year ago has recently had some clues.

Half a year ago, the city lord of Shengyun City died, and his death was unknown, claiming that he had been assassinated.

At that time, Nangong Yi sent someone to investigate because of curiosity, but nothing was found.

And this just aroused Nangong Yi's curiosity, after all, there is no such thing in this world for no reason.

If you can't find it out now, it can only mean that the clues have been artificially erased.

It really shouldn't be.

It stands to reason that the lord of the city was assassinated, and people should vigorously look for clues to find the assassin who assassinated.

But Ascension Cloud City didn't do anything, as if the death of the city lord didn't affect them at all.

The most important thing is that a few days after the death of the city lord of Shengyun City, another new city lord took office.

The news of the death of the city lord is estimated to only reach the ears of the Youruo monarch in a few days, no matter how decisive the Yuruo monarch is, no matter how fast the order is, it is impossible to complete the appointment of the new city lord in such a short time.

Moreover, after the new city lord took office, he didn't have the slightest intention of investigating the cause of the death of the previous city lord, as if he had forgotten about it.

There are so many doubts.

It's so much that you can't help but doubt it.

Of course, he couldn't find any clues, and Nangong Yi couldn't determine anything, so he could only temporarily think that the new city lord was cold by nature.

But the news that came out some time ago really shocked Nangong Yi.

The previous city lord of Shengyun City was not assassinated at all, but poisoned by his subordinates!

The person who poisoned him is his right-hand man!

And his assistant also died with the castle lord when he died.

Is the clue broken here?

No.

According to the investigation, that assistant was originally a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect, but later he was taken by the prince and became a personal servant.

After that, I didn't know what happened and went to Shengyun City, because I would observe words and become the right-hand man of the city lord.

Poisoning, disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect, and princes, these three unrelated things are strangely linked to people.

Why poison the city lord?

It was only he who got in the way.

The lord of the city is a diehard loyalist of the sovereign.

I guess that's what smart people think.

Nangong Yi took out a roll of bandages, slowly wrapped them around the wound, and then took out a healing pill and took it.

Only then did his face look better.

But the expression on his face became more solemn.

"Half a year ago, I was the lord of Shengyun City, and a year ago I was the lord of Twilight City, and now it's my turn again?

If you want to say that no ghost and fool will believe it, who will only catch the city lord who is loyal to the monarch and kill it. ”

Nangong Yi informed the soldiers to go to the other two cities, and this is what the main city master said.

The other two cities were the closest to the city that never sleeped, and they were also the ones in the same camp who had the best relationship with him Nangong Yi.

Now he found something that he always had to say to them.

"That assassin was ruthless enough, he almost killed me, and now I have to use pills every day to heal my wounds.

If it weren't for the sharpness of his senses at the time, he would have died. ”

............

"Brother Ye, do you really want to go out and go out on your own?"

Yun Tao and Ye Qitian were wandering around the city that never sleeps, and as they walked, Yun Tao suddenly asked.

"yes, what are you doing in the city that never sleeps? Besides, my senior brother is injured, and if you stay here, you might get into trouble.

Why don't you go out and have fun by yourself? ”

Thousands of machines change, this kind of thing that can change its form, must be well hidden, and cannot be easily exposed, even in front of the same door.

And only when Ye Qitian goes out on his own can the possibility of exposure be minimized.

"But that's dangerous. Yun Tao said worriedly.

"Although your combat power is comparable to the Jindan realm, you are not a real Jindan, even Jindan can be killed outside, let alone you. ”

Yun Tao can't help but worry, needless to say, the danger of spirit beasts should also be considered.

Sometimes people are more terrible than spirit animals.

"Don't worry, I know more about this world than you, don't forget, I was a casual cultivator before joining the Spirit Moon Sect.

I haven't seen any hardships or sophistication. ”

In fact, Ye Qitian didn't worry much about safety at all.

After the thousands of machines are transformed into hot weapons such as firearms, the power is really incredible!

Although there was no specific experiment, Ye Qitian could feel that in the case of defenselessness, the powerhouses of the ninth layer of Jindan could be taken away with one shot.

With such a powerful weapon, as long as he doesn't go to trouble himself, it is estimated that few people will want to kill him.

So, in general, he wasn't worried at all.

"Alright then, be careful. Seeing Ye Qitian's stubborn appearance, Yun Tao could only sigh and not persuade him.

After all, they are just fellow disciples, and two words of warning are enough, whether to listen or not to do it is actually Ye Qitian's own business.

"Brother Yun, don't tell Master that I left the City That Never Sleeps when you go back. ”

Now the biggest resistance comes in the early hours of the morning.

If Ling Chen knew that Ye Qitian had run away, maybe he would have come out to arrest him in a fit of anger.

Therefore, I want Yuntao to help hide it.

"I didn't see anything, I'll come back after sending Ye Qitian to Sleepless City. ”

Yun Tao smiled slightly, and began to lie in front of Ye Qitian.

"Yes, that's it!"

Go on the road!

This is the answer that Ye Qitian wants.

"Speaking of which, I still have some things, so I won't accompany you, Brother Yun. ”

Ye Qitian suddenly thought of what Liu Mang wanted him to help before he came.

"Okay, okay, you go get busy. The corners of Yun Tao's mouth twitched slightly.

You said if you want to leave now, just go.

I promised to help you lie, and now you are still trying to perfunctory me.

That's right, in Yuntao's eyes, Ye Qitian said that he had something to run.

If Ye Qitian knew Yun Tao's thoughts, he would probably be a little crying and laughing.

He really has something to do.

............

"Is this the Liu family?"

After asking a lot of passers-by, Ye Qitian finally found the location of the Liu family.

"What is the matter with Your Excellency?"

The guards guarding the gate of Liu's house stretched out their hands to intercept Ye Qitian, who wanted to enter the door, and asked in a calm tone.

"I want to find your master again. ”

Ye Qitian replied truthfully.

"Then please wait here for a while, and I'll go and ask for instructions. One of the guards looked Ye Qitian up and down.

Then he turned around and went into the gate to report.

That's it????

You don't even know your name?

In fact, this is what Ye Qitian doesn't understand, if the Liu family's guards are really so casual, then the people who come to the Liu family every day will kick the threshold through.

Tired can also exhaust them.

As for why he reported it, it was just that he could see that Ye Qitian was a monk.

If there is a person who has cultivated in his body, will he come to Liu's house for no reason? Of course not!

As for why the name is not asked, this is also easy to explain.

First, they are just guards, or are they guards in turn, how can they come to a person they all know, and it is useless to ask for a name.

Second, they are just guards, if you say it sounds good, it is a guard, and if it sounds bad, it is the dog of the Liu family.

Can a dog know a person's name?

That's disrespect for people!

If they dared to take the liberty of asking people's names, it would not be too much for Ye Qitian to kill them directly.

And the Liu family will definitely not say anything.

These guards can also act in front of ordinary people.

When they encounter something really powerful, they won't be stupid enough to stop it.

Moreover, when the guards went in to report, they didn't report that they were big people.

That is, to notify the housekeeper and tell the housekeeper that there is a cultivator outside, whether to go out to have a look or drive it away.

Of course, this expulsion requires other people's hands, and the steward has the power to mobilize those people.

And this is almost the unspoken rule of the country, and it can't be changed.

"Lord Butler, there is a monk outside who said that he wants to visit the Liu family, you see........." The guard came to the butler and said cautiously.

"Boy, I've said it all, men have to be tough when they speak! Look at you, it's like you haven't eaten. The butler looked at the groveling guard in front of him and said helplessly.
