At the moment when the last rays of sunlight disappeared into the horizon, Sima Xuan appeared in front of a towering city tower with Sun Erlei. There is a stone plaque embedded on the top of the city tower, which reads: Heavenly Punishment. Sun Erlei, who was sitting on the ground, covered his head while complaining to Sima Xuan and said: "Brother Sima, why don't you know me, so that I can be prepared, I have drunk a lot of soil foam along the way!"

"Hehe......" Sima Xuan smiled and said, "I'm really sorry for Brother Erlei, but we have already arrived at our destination before the sun sets!"

Hearing this, Sun Erlei slowly stood up from the ground, looked at the city tower in front of him, and said with some complaints: "Okay! Okay! Now that you've arrived, I won't say anything about you, let's hurry into the city!"

Sima Xuan did not delay, and walked towards the city gate with Sun Erlei.

After a while, the two of them came to the city gate. In the evening, there were indeed quite a few people entering the city, and under the command of the garrison sergeant, the people who entered the city walked towards the city in an orderly manner. The sergeants guarding the city were not idle, they carried out some checks on those who felt suspicious from time to time, and their attitude was quite modest, and those who were in a hurry to enter the city were also very cooperative.

Sima Xuan followed Sun Erlei and hurriedly joined the team entering the city, Sima Xuan saw the city guard near the city gate, and asked curiously: "Brother Erlei, what is the matter with this city guard?"

Sun Erlei glanced at the city defenders at the front of the team, and said without looking back: "They, they are the city guards who punished the city this day~"

"You ......" Sima Xuan was about to speak and ask Sun Erlei when he heard this, but he interrupted: "Why do you have so many questions, wait a while to enter the city, don't talk now......

As the two spoke, it was time for them to enter the city after being inspected by the garrison sergeant. Sun Erlei walked in front respectfully, and the sergeant guarding the city looked up at him, waved his hand, and motioned for him to hurry over. Sun Erlei saw that he didn't have to check, so he saved trouble and didn't go towards the city quickly. When he arrived at Sima Xuan, he was a little puzzled when he saw Sun Erlei's appearance, but after thinking about it, maybe there was something greasy in it, so he also followed Sun Erlei's example and walked towards the city gate.

"Please wait a minute!" the serious voice of the garrison sergeant reached Sima Xuan's ears. Sima Xuan stopped, looked at the sergeant who spoke without the slightest doubt on his face, and said lightly, "Is there something wrong?"

The sergeant defending the city glanced at Sima Xuan and shouted, "Someone! Arrest him!"

Sun Erlei, who was walking in front, heard the voice of the city defender behind him, and he turned around to see what was going on, just when he saw Sima Xuan being grabbed by two sergeants and pulled aside. Seeing that Sima Xuan was inexplicably arrested, he hurriedly turned around and walked back and forth, but the number of people entering the city suddenly increased, and Sun Erlei was forced into the Heavenly Punishment City by the crowd that rushed in. At this time, the voice of the garrison sergeant sounded: "Hurry up and enter the city, close the city gate!"

As the words fell, as the last group of people entered the city, the city gate was tightly closed, and when the crowd dispersed, Sun Erlei wanted to find Sima Xuan again, but found that in addition to the closed city gate, even the soldiers guarding the city had disappeared without a trace. He had no choice but to shake his head, sighed, and said to himself: "Brother Sima, this is fate!"

When night fell, the city was brightly lit. Let's say that Sima Xuan was taken by the soldiers guarding the city to a not very large place next to the city gate. Sima Xuan looked around at the layout of the premises, and it seemed that it should be a place for the sergeants guarding the city to change their guard and rest.

"Is he in there?" said a man's voice outside the door.

"Yes, he's locked up here by us. Another man replied.

Sima Xuan heard the voice of the second man who spoke, he was the sergeant who ordered the others to take him down at the city gate, so who was the man before?

Just as Sima Xuan was thinking, the door was opened. Two men walked in, led by a middle-aged man in a long robe, followed by the sergeant defending the city. Sima Xuan's eyes were calm, staring at the two people who walked in.

The middle-aged man in a long robe smiled, walked a few steps to Sima Xuan's approach, and arched his hand towards Sima Xuan and said, "Sima Pavilion Master, I'm really sorry, my subordinates are not very good at doing things, please bear with me if you offend." ”

Sima Xuan was shocked when he heard this, and said with a calm face: "Who are you?"

The middle-aged man in the long robe smiled, and then replied, "Master Sima Pavilion, below is the deputy city lord of this Heavenly Punishment City, the chief manager of the Heavenly Punishment God Pavilion, Situ Ghost Bai. ”

"Your surname is Situ?" said Sima Xuan with a little surprise.

Situ Ghost Bai nodded and said, "Don't hide it from Master Sima Pavilion, I was saved by Lord Situ, and fortunately received the name from Lord Situ, so that I won't become a lonely ghost!"

Sima Xuan nodded when he heard Situ Guibai's words, and then asked, "Chief Situ, I don't know why you came to me?"

"Hehe~" Situ Guibai replied with a smile, "Sima Pavilion Master, you can call me Guibai." ”

Sima Xuan nodded, but he didn't speak, waiting for Situ Guibai to continue. Seeing this, Situ Ghost Bai did not hesitate, and then said: "I came this time to bring a letter to the Lord Sima Pavilion at the request of the Great Lord. As he spoke, he took out a letter and presented it to Sima Xuan.

Sima Xuan took the letter, and the front of the envelope said "Sima Pavilion Master", but there was no other word. After opening the envelope, Sima Xuan took out the letter: Sima Xuan, or I should call you "Xuan'er"! However, none of this matters. I didn't expect that you would really be able to come to this heavenly realm, and I didn't expect that your cultivation would not grow at all, and now you can't take revenge...... That's it, that's it, let's not talk about superfluous nonsense. Since you have successfully defeated everyone, then you are the new Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Punishment God Domain, and you are also the City Lord of this Heavenly Punishment City. You will meet Onihaku, and he will teach you how to be a good city lord. Finally, by the time you read this letter, I have already left the Heavenly Punishment God Pavilion, and if something happens in the future, you will be fully responsible......

The content of the letter came to an abrupt end here, and Sima Xuan did not show a trace of strange expression on his face from beginning to end. Situ Guibai saw everything in his eyes, and couldn't help but have an inexplicable fear of this new master in his heart.

Sima Xuan put down the letter in his hand and said lightly: "Ghost Bai, take me to the City Lord's Mansion to have a look." ”

When Situ Ghost Bai heard this, he hurriedly replied, "Okay, Master Sima Pavilion, please here!"

Sima Xuan stood up, looked at Situ Guibai and said, "This sergeant asked him to come to the City Lord's Mansion. ”

Situ Ghost Bai was stunned for a moment, and immediately replied, "Yes, Sima Pavilion Master." Then, he turned to the sergeant guarding the city and said, "Thank you Sima Pavilion Master yet!"

When the sergeant heard this, he bowed down and said, "Thank you, Master Sima Pavilion!"

Sima Xuan waved his hand and walked out of the room.
