Li Fo raised his head, glanced at the man proudly, and then said with a flat expression: "In the next hereditary barony, you are a nobleman's attendant, your master has not spoken, where is your qualification to speak?" There is no etiquette at all, it is really unimaginable, a person like you is actually the follower of the noble lord?" Li Fo said, looked at Cui Ze, who was pale, and bowed slightly: "I'm sorry, I'm very direct, but this servant of yours is really not good!"

Cui Ze glanced at Li Fo hatefully, and then yelled at the servant who lowered his head and couldn't do it: "Why don't you hurry up and get out of me!" As he spoke, he looked at Li Fo with cold eyes, and said coldly: "Okay, I have taught my ignorant servant, the honorable secretary...... Now, can I leave you to invite the city lord?"

Li Fo raised his head elegantly, looked at the group of people with very unkind faces in the circles under his eyes, and said lightly: "I'm sorry, the city lord is not here." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"You're looking for ...... Not...... Hmm!"

As soon as Huang Qiang said two words, Li Nan reached out to cover his mouth, then glared at him fiercely, and smiled at Li Fodian: "Hello, since the city lord is not here, I believe that you can also do it, we need you to issue a certificate that the materials have been robbed, and then, we will go to meet His Majesty the King and ask His Majesty to call the shots for us." ”

Although Li Fo didn't know what was going on, that didn't mean he couldn't guess. Mr. Liverford has always been a very intelligent aristocrat.

He first glanced at the nobles with ugly faces, and the servants with even more ugly faces, and then remembered that when he got up in the morning, people had rumored that the three nobles in the city had been robbed. It's really good news, I guess the lord will be very happy to hear it!

Yes, Li Fo only needs to be clear about this, and he doesn't care who robbed these nobles and what they robbed. As long as you know the attitude of the lord in this matter, you can do it.

Therefore, Li Fo shrugged helplessly and spread his hands: "I'm really sorry, I've just been here for two days, and I'm not familiar with it, and ...... I'm not qualified to issue that certificate, so you'd better wait for the lord to come back. ”

"You really think you're a character!" Huang Qiang broke free of Li Nan, his huge body stepped on the ground and let out a slight tremor, and the voice boss roared: "I'll tell you...... If that bastard doesn't come out again, I'll smash you here!"

"Hmph... Huang Qiang, you are so bold!"

A cold snort, coming from outside, Mo Qing strode over from behind the crowd, don't look at these three nobles and their subordinates who dare to point fingers at Li Fo, but in the face of Mo Qing, they don't have the courage yet. Even before Mo Qing became the city lord, they didn't dare to do anything, not to mention, Mo Qing took refuge in Ling Xiao, and now he is an existence above 10,000 people under Peng Zesi City.

"Brother Mo...... We've been waiting for you for a long time, for the sake of our friends in the past, don't get stuck with us with this certificate!" Li Nan said to Mo Qing with a smiling face, his expression was very real and sincere.

Cui Ze and Huang Qiang, the two nobles, couldn't pull their faces and smiled at Mo Qing, besides, all the supplies of the three families were robbed last night, and the economic losses caused by each family were at least more than half!

Mo Qing said apologetically: "I'm sorry Brother Li, this certification document is in the next ...... I really can't give it to you. ”

"Oh, then why?" Li Nan asked indifferently as if he was not in a hurry.

"The issuance of such a document certifying a major loss is usually due to the negligence of the local lord and the loss to the nobles, so that he will bypass the lord and go directly to the imperial capital to meet His Majesty the king. First of all, the identity of the gang of robbers has yet to be ascertained, and who have been instructed by them to dare to be so bold. Secondly, this is not the lord's negligence, it is just an accident!" Mo Qing said eloquently: "Finally, the most important point, this case, solved, those robbers who robbed you...... All dead. ”

Mo Qing regretted helplessly: "I am very sympathetic to the losses of several people, but the country has national laws, the family has family rules, and this land is the fief of the lord, and the lord is also very concerned about the events of last night, urging me to ...... Let those robbers confess as soon as possible, and see who dares to be so bold and rob the nobles' finances, the young master said...... Once found, we will not tolerate it!"

Mo Qing's words were categorical and upright, Li Fo was infected by the great sentiment of the city lord, he even wiped the corners of his eyes, and added on the side: "With such a good city lord, what are you afraid of?" Go back, the city lord and the lord will give you an explanation!"

Mo Qing glanced approvingly at the down-and-out nobles from this neighboring country, and thought to himself: This person is very promising, and it is the best to use him to govern those nobles in the city, haha!

Cui Ze and the others were so angry that they could only walk away angrily, the hatred for Ling Xiao and Mo Qing in their hearts had reached the point of no return, and the hatred had reached the point where it could not be resolved at all, it can be said that the arrival of Ling Xiao first cut off their biggest financial route, then divided their alliance, and finally simply ended their old bottom. Although the strength of these three nobles is still very strong, by now, they are actually similar to those other nobles in the city.

When the three nobles came to their senses and wanted to find the alliance of those nobles, they suddenly found that those nobles ...... They have already fallen to the lord.

......

From the mouths of the captured mercenaries, Ling Xiao got a piece of news, they turned out to be from the Zichuan Empire, and moreover, it was a very famous mercenary team, the "Kamikaze" second-level mercenary group, with more than 20,000 sword masters, more than 3,000 great sword masters, hundreds of mad sword masters, dozens of demon swordsmen, and eight elders, all of whom had the cultivation of a third-order or higher demon sword master, and the head of the mercenary group was a martial artist with the cultivation of the Sword Sect!

As for the number of orders of the Sword Sect...... Even the mercenaries didn't know that.

Who hired them, all the captured mercenaries are not clear, the only mad swordsman who led the team died in the melee, it should have died under Meng Li's sword!

There are still some internal responses in the city, they are people from the three major aristocratic families, and they blame the three nobles for being unlucky, even Li Nan, the head of the Li family, who has always been resourceful, feels that Ling Xiao is in a catastrophe this time, more than 5,000 powerful mercenaries, dealing with the lightning corps of more than 2,000 people, this is simply a simple thing!

At that time, I didn't know that the Sword Sect had appeared, otherwise, the three nobles might have followed the bare-chested battle to reap the credit! If they really did that, I am afraid that the three nobles would have been completely wiped out of the territory of Penzes City now.

"Kamikaze...... Second-level mercenary group?" Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows lightly, and said to himself: "They shouldn't be willing to let these more than 5,000 people perish, right?

Fu Bo Zhengse said: "Don't underestimate the strength of this mercenary group, they are very powerful! But is the crown prince crazy? He dares to collude with the forces of other countries, if His Majesty the King knows about it......

"If only His Majesty the King knew...... It's still the same!"

Ling Xiao sighed lightly, it seems that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Royal Highness the Second King of the South ...... I don't want to live well!

It's okay, who doesn't want me to live in peace, and who doesn't want to live in peace themselves!" Ling Xiao thought to himself.

The frenzied plundering brought Ling Xiao more than 3 million gold coins in direct income and more than 10 million gold coins worth of materials!

With this money, the families of the more than 400 brothers killed in the Lightning Corps received a pension of one thousand gold coins, which was something that had never happened in the history of the Blue Moon Empire, one thousand gold coins, equivalent to one million copper plates, ordinary families could not save so much money in their lifetime. Those who were alive, as long as they participated in the war, were given five hundred gold coins each! That is, more than a million gold coins were spent on this alone!

And this incident also made Ling Xiao famous in the south, almost all the people in the southern cities knew that the new young lord of Penzes City treated his private soldiers like brothers, and there was even a legend that Viscount Ling Xiao's private soldiers were all practicing ground-level sword skills......

As a result, there are more and more people who come to Penzes City to serve Ling Xiao, and Ling Xiao can only nominally have three thousand private soldiers, which is already more than the upper limit that a viscount can have private soldiers, and now there are many forces that pay attention to Ling Xiao, so this kind of thing that makes people seize the handle, it is best not to do it.

Therefore, most of the people who served Ling Xiao were all stuffed to Mo Qing, anyway, Penzes City was preparing to expand, the city wall was already on the verge of aging, Ling Xiao had seen the power of the orc Comodo War Giant Elephant, and never thought that the current wall of Penzes City could withstand a few hits. Therefore, it is still necessary to have more people.

After a period of cultivation, coupled with some elixirs refined by Ling Xiao, Fu Bo actually faintly showed signs of breaking through to the second-order demon sword master, and he has been practicing hard every day recently.

And Meng Li, after getting a Vatia Holy Fruit, took it, and actually rushed to the third-order demon swordsman in one fell swoop!

This...... It's nothing short of a miracle!

Even Ye Zi, who had always been unhappy with Meng Li, had to admit that this guy was also a genius in cultivation! Being able to rush from a fourth-order mad swordsman to a third-order demon swordsman was definitely not something that ordinary people could do, because the severe pain caused by the expansion of the meridians when rushing through the level was enough for an ordinary person to be hurt to death!

And he ...... Ling Xiao's subordinates, in addition to Fu Bo, finally have a decent master!

Ye Zi, who is getting bigger and bigger from being pulled by others, finally made up his mind to do penance, and it just so happens that there are many people who have defected to Ling Xiao recently, and after screening, there are indeed many good talents, assigned to various departments, and Ye Zi can also be a lot more leisurely.

The work on intelligence has Meng Li, a third-order demon swordsman, who can basically handle it completely, so Ye Weini also began to enter the crazy cultivation.

Ling Xiao's daily cultivation also faintly showed signs of breaking through the middle stage of foundation building and entering the late stage of foundation building, which made Ling Xiao very excited, such a fast cultivation speed was unimaginable in the cultivation realm.

However, there is one thing that makes him quite helpless, many people, including Fu Bo, are quite optimistic about his strength, after all, if he can repel a Sword Sect with one sword, a young man who has just entered adulthood has this strength, isn't it enough to be proud?

Ling Xiao knew bitterly in his heart, if his own move was okay one-on-one, even if he faced the Sword Sect, he would have the power to fight, but the question was, how many opportunities are there like this?

It has been more than a month since the Carnival of the Flame Lion King, and during this time, everything in the entire Penzes City has been developing in an orderly manner. Including Huangpu Yue, who has not left, it seems that he also has plans to stay here for a long time, although he still lives in the Viscount's Mansion, he has begun to increase his efforts to manage the family business here. And she also seems to have a fairly free position in the family, as can be seen from the retinue of the four demon swordsmen beside her.

Although the four demon swordsmen have four very vulgar names: Ah Da, Ah Er, Ah San, Ah Si...... But each of them is quite strong!

There were rumors in the outside world that they were third-order or fourth-order, and it wasn't until Meng Li, who had just been promoted to a third-order demon swordsman, had itchy hands and wanted to compete with them that he knew that these four people had already reached the strength of a fifth-order demon swordsman!

Ling Xiao even wondered if the Huangpu family had too many masters, and even used four fifth-order demon swordsmen to protect a girl! Even if Huangpu Yue's business talent was heavenly, Ling Xiao still thought that it was a big fuss.

However, Ah Da and the others would like to learn more from Ling Xiao, if a young man who can shake off the master of the Sword Sect with a sword, how strong does he have to be? If they can learn from him, it will definitely be of great help to improve their strength. It's just that Ling Xiao never promised them.

What are you kidding, you don't have to "float in the shadows" against the fifth-order demon swordsman at all, if you use it...... The Whampoa family had to find themselves desperately.

The Huangpu family is worthy of being one of the biggest businessmen in the Blue Moon Empire! Huangpu Yuelai can indeed afford to be the first person in the commercial field for thousands of years, and with a little pointer of the family business here, half of the shops in Cameron Town after the original sales have surpassed that side in just ten days!

Ling Xiao felt more and more that Huang Puyue's business talent was valuable, because he was increasingly short of money.

At this time, an invitation letter from His Royal Highness the King of the South was delivered to the Viscount's Mansion.
