Mu Yun woke up in a luxuriously decorated bedroom, his brain was dizzy, his chest, arms and thighs were all wrapped in bandages, and there was a hot pain coming from it. The last memory was frozen in the moment of the explosion, and eighty percent of it was the shock wave that stunned him.

"Mu Yun, you're finally awake!"

"The young master is awake!"

Qin Yue and Mu Ying'er ran to the side of the bed, Qin Yue was slightly injured, Mu Ying'er was not injured at all, and the dark energy explosion didn't seem to be able to cause damage.

Lan Feng was not lightly injured, his arms were hung on his chest with bandages, and his head was wrapped around a few times, and when he walked over, he said with a depressed face: "This time it's miserable, the black flame causes damage, and ordinary healing techniques can't cure it, I won't be disfigured." ”

Mu Ying'er nodded and said, "You can't blame the young master for this! Who would have thought that it would explode!"

"No, this time it's a bit underestimated. Ying'er helped Mu Yun get out of bed, Mu Yun untied the bandage in a circle, the wound was scorched black, as if carbonized, stared at it for a few seconds and said, "There is dark attribute energy attached to it, dark energy has an erosive effect, if it is not treated in time, the body will be eaten away a little bit." I'll write a recipe for refining medicine later, first apply and pull out the dark poison, and then use the healing technique. ”

This kind of dark energy damage is very vicious, and it may not dissipate for decades, and even if you don't die, it will make people feel painful.

Of course, this is the most ordinary dark energy damage for Mu Yun.

"Anyway, where is this?"

Qin Yue saw that Mu Yun was gradually recovering and did not leave any sequelae, so she was relieved and replied, "This is the City Lord's Castle! You have uprooted a big tumor hidden in the White City, and made a miraculous achievement, waiting to receive a heavy reward!"

"Did Sun Zhengdao catch it?"

"Not yet. ”

Mu Yun was slightly injured, but on the whole, he won a big victory, and Akatsuki's power in Baicheng was basically pulled out, and it would be much safer and easier to live in Baicheng from now on. It's just a pity to let Sun Zhengdao escape.

A guard walked in: "The city lord summons!"

Lan Feng frowned and said, "Mu Yun is not feeling well, let's go again later!"

"I'm in good condition, out of the way!"

Mu Yun asked Mu Ying'er to help her and followed the guards to the political hall. The hall is spacious and bright, with a ceiling of 10 meters high, with seven or eight pillars, tiled floors, and a red stall, which is very imposing.

On the main seat, it was the city lord Lan Yue, about forty years old, tall, eyebrows like paint, a resolute face, and a five-point resemblance to Lan Feng between his eyebrows. The seats on both sides were also full of people, judging from their clothes, most of them were Baicheng consuls or officers, and a few were different, among them Lan Feng teacher Zhao Pu, Mu Ying'er student Gu Boyun, and even the father and son of the Nalan family.

Most of the big people with heads and faces were invited to the meeting.

Seeing that everyone's eyes were focused, Mu Yun stepped forward without fear, clasped his fists with both hands and said, "I've seen the city lord!"

Lan Yue was not frightened, not afraid, neither humble nor arrogant, and immediately felt very satisfied, it was indeed a rare material to be made, and asked with concern, "Does your injury matter?"

Mu Yun replied, "It's not enough to worry about!"

Lan Yue nodded reassuringly, waved his hand and said, "Mu Yun is a wounded, he can't stand, give him a seat!"

Two guards brought a chair.

Mu Yun sat down unceremoniously.

Lan Yue began to introduce, first introducing the senior military and political officials one by one, and then introducing some special people: "This is Nalan Houde of the Nalan family, and his eldest son Nalan Gaoyuan. ”

The city lord didn't know about Nalan Gaoyuan's festival with Mu Yun.

Mu Yun immediately felt a hostile gaze when he entered the door.

Nalan Gaoyuan must have hated Mu Yun, Mu Yun beat him up, and now he has pointed out that the teacher Sun Zhengdao is a henchman of the Red Moon, which caused Nalan Gaoyuan's reputation to plummet, which is all due to him!

The city lord then pointed to an old man in a cyan robe, and said slowly in an intriguing tone, "This one...... Mu Yun should not be a stranger, he is Mu Qingshan, the head of the Mu family!"

The head of the Mu family?

Mu Yun glanced at the other party.

This is an old man in a cyan robe, probably very good at maintenance, with few wrinkles on his face, but his hair is gray, his hair is meticulously coiled, and he has a wooden hairpin inserted into it, sitting steadily, quite a bit of a fairy wind bones.

The Mu family is a family of warlocks.

Mu Qingshan is a 34-ring great magician, and his family has a high status in Baicheng, and it is by no means in vain. Warlock is a profession with very strict talent restrictions, and warlock families generally have strict restrictions on marriage. Especially in the family lineage, when marrying a wife or marrying a person, you must choose a famous family with excellent talents, so as to ensure the quality of the offspring.

Since the Mu family moved to Baicheng, it has lasted for more than a hundred years, and almost half of the clan has been studying the art path, and the background is very profound. The ancestor of the Mu family is a geomagician, and the talent of the descendants is not much worse.

Mu Qingshan's status in the warlock world, although it is not as good as Gu Boyun and Weng Lianhai, is at least at the same level as Sun Zhengdao.

"You are Mu Yun......" Mu Qingshan glanced at Mu Yun carefully, without any expression, and said lightly: "Among the descendants of the Mu family, there is a good seedling." ”

Mu Qingshan's tone was more tactful, obviously testing Mu Yun.

Mu Yun said directly: "I have said more than once that my surname is Mu, but it has nothing to do with the Mu family in Baicheng. ”

As soon as this remark came out.

The city lords all looked embarrassed.

Mu Yun inevitably didn't give Mu Qingshan face, what grievances did Mu Yun have with the Mu family, Lan Yue didn't know very well, Mu Qingshan was also the head of the Mu family. Mu Yun was in front of the powerful people in the city, and it was inappropriate to commit such a crime.

Mu Qingshan said slowly: "Whether you want it or not, whether you like it or not, the blood flowing in your veins belongs to the Mu family after all, and no one can change this." As he spoke, Mu Qingshan closed his eyes and recuperated and stopped talking.

Mu Yun was slightly stunned.

This old man is a little more cunning than he imagined, if Mu Qingshan is angry, Mu Yun will expel the Mu family's parents from the family tree, and the heirs of the Mu family will take advantage of the fire to rob and try to occupy Ying'er. As a result, when he said this, Mu Yun was speechless.

Mu Qingshan can become the head of the Mu family, so he is naturally not an ordinary stunned young man.

"Ahem...... Your family affairs are private, and you only talk about business today!" Lan Yue is in the relationship of his own interests, but he hopes that Mu Yun will leave the family, otherwise the Mu family has this figure, and the family status and strength are afraid to increase greatly, and I am afraid that it will endanger the status of the Lan family, Lan Yue changed the topic and continued: "The big event that happened in Baicheng last night caused a sensation in the whole city, and it will also attract the attention of the whole region, if it were not for Mu Yun's work, I am afraid that the city lord would still be kept in the dark." I didn't expect that Akatsuki, who had thought that the grass had been cut down for more than ten years, had resurged, and the secret power had developed to such a point! I invited you here today to discuss that at this time, a chief warlock is an undercover agent of Akatsuki, so I have reason to believe that there are still many Akatsuki henchmen in Baicheng!"

The crowd whispered.

Lan Yue said to Mu Yun, "What do you think?"

Mu Yun stood up and said, "Akatsuki believers worship demons, and they will definitely keep things like tools and instruments, or totem tokens, and even build evil magic circles or altars. I think it's necessary to conduct a city-wide inventory, and I have a close relationship with the Akatsuki believers, especially the need to quarantine them, such as the student ......"

"You...... You're spewing blood!"

Nalan Houde didn't speak, and Nalan Gaoyuan jumped up like a cat that had been stepped on by its tail.

Mu Yun obviously didn't want to let go of an opportunity to hit the Nalan family.

Nalan Houde also hurriedly said: "City Lord, my Baicheng Nalan family is a branch of the Nalan family in the Northland, the Nalan family is a big family with a history of more than 600 years, we have maintained the honor of the Nalan family for generations, this kind of lowly thing to take refuge in the demons is impossible to do, otherwise the family master will not spare us!

Dad is calmer than son after all.

Mu Yun said calmly: "Sun Zhengdao is a worshipper of the Nalan family, and he is also a teacher of the noble son, he is a high-ranking disciple of Chiyue, even if the children of the Nalan family are not bewitched, who can ensure that the rest of the Nalan family is not recruited? This is a logical conjecture, it's just a matter of facts!"

"You ......"

Nalan Houde was already a little unable to sit still.

The Nalan family's power in Baicheng is relatively weak, although it is also among the three major families, but the right to speak is in the hands of the Lan family, if the city lord restricts it a little, the family business will be greatly reduced. The Nalan family is a business family, not a comfortable family like the Mu family, and business is their foundation.

Lan Yue felt that it made sense, no matter whether there was a problem or not, it would never be wrong to take precautions in advance, he thought about it, and decided not to discuss this kind of topic in front of the Nalan family, and immediately shifted his attention and said to Mu Yun: "This matter, this city lord will consider it." Mu Yun has made great contributions to the White City, and I have decided to report to the lord and promote your noble medal to become a Mithril noble!"

Mithril Aristocrat!

This status is one level higher than that of the Fire Bronze Nobles, so that Mu Yun has the right to see the city lord not to worship! The Mithril Nobles have real power, and they are qualified to ask the local city lord for a team of no more than 200 soldiers in any city as personal protection and retinue. In addition, the Mithril nobility is for life, and when you die, you can pass it on to your children.

"Thank you, City Lord!"

"This kind of great merit is inevitable to raise the title, besides, what reward do you want? As long as the requirements are reasonable, the city lord will approve it!"

Lan Yue directly asked for Mu Yun to write a check.

This may be a temptation.

Mu Yun is not greedy for money, not greedy for power, what he really wants, a city lord can't give it, Mu Yun thought about it again and again, suddenly thought of something, and immediately said: "I don't need any prizes, I just need a promise from the city lord!"

"Oh, what is it?"

"I'm going to unite with the merchants, reach the Luohan Mountains from the river, and develop the resources of the plateau!

As soon as this remark came out.

The crowd was stunned.

Plateau?

What did Mu Yun do in that barbaric place?

Lan Yue was also very surprised: "The plateau is full of orcs, a group of robbers, battle maniacs, and barbarians, do you know that dealing with them is a very dangerous thing. ”

"Know it!"

"During the imperial period, the emperor tried to exploit the resources of the plateau, and also planned to establish towns on the plateau, encroach on the territory of the orcs, and consolidate the territory of the human race, but in the end it all failed. Baicheng has always had very little restraint on commerce, and as long as it does not cause anything to the city, the city lord will not interfere. Since I have this idea, I will not stop it, there is only one condition, if you can really open a channel for trading with orcs, you can't sell siege equipment and heavy arms and weapons. ”

Mu Yun said: "Please rest assured, I have my own measure. Besides, this heavy weapon is a restricted-level commodity, and unless it is a large ordnance dealer, there is no way to make and sell it. ”

Mu Yun has the support of the city lord of Baicheng, so he can let go of his hands and feet to do it.

At the meeting, some things were discussed on how to exterminate the Chiyue Yu Party, and in the next few days, Baicheng would definitely be full of turmoil.

Mu Yun, Ying'er, and Qin Yue enjoyed a high-class lunch in the castle, and Mu Yun didn't want to stay longer, so he immediately left the castle with the two of them.
