Chapter 421: Bargaining
After these two wars, the Far North was basically abolished, but the ups and downs of Fengyu City were not over.
At the moment of life and death, Feng Minnian did not hesitate to make a heavy promise, and was willing to thank Li Yunuan with a heavy gift afterwards, but after the situation was really calm, this old fox was reluctant to bleed again.
"The city lord of Mengli rescued me this time, and my Fengyu City can be reborn in adversity. I am willing to form a friendly neighbor with Wushuang City, and live in harmony and take care of each other in the future!"
Feng Minnian said lightly, the meaning was very obvious: Since we are brother cities in trouble, why do you have to worry about such mundane things as money with me?
How could Li Yunuan not know the thoughts of this old fox, and said with a smile: "It is the honor of the Wushuang City that the Lord of Fengcheng is willing to deign to befriend the Wushuang City. I don't know what the Phoenix Feather City Lord plans to send to celebrate this happy event?"
As soon as Feng Minnian heard Li Yunuan's debt collection, he immediately groaned exaggeratedly: "This ice field invasion, my Fengyu City has also suffered heavy losses, and the City Lord Li is a person with a lot of virtue, so he shouldn't see the people of Fengyu City sufferingβ"
Li Yunuan knew that he didn't have the slightest sincerity, and said with a smile: "Of course I don't want the people of Fengyu City to suffer! I remember that there are several mines at the junction of Fengyu City and Wushuang City, which are quite rich. Fengyu City has been taking care of itself recently, and I am afraid that the City of Tigers and Wolves will take advantage of the fire to rob it, but since my Wushuang City has become a friendly neighbor of Fengyu City, I am naturally willing to take on the responsibility of safety for Fengyu City!"
Feng Minnian really had a toothache this time!
This woman actually wanted to swallow three of his mines in one go!
"Is City Lord Li really humorous?" he said with a smile.
Li Yunuan said sternly: "Lord Fengcheng, since we have formed an alliance, Fengyu City's is Wushuang City's, and it is only natural for Wushuang City to help Fengyu City!"
"Li City Lord Gao Yi ...... Li City Lord Gao Yi!" Feng Minnian gritted his teeth and said, after all, he was the lord of a city, and he made a promise to Li Yunuan twice in public, but he didn't dare to break his word openly, and could only hint at his unhappiness in the voice of a toothache patient!
Li Yunuan smiled and watched Feng Minnian eat the fruit of his own actions, and after a little perfunctory, he found an excuse to retreat.
She thought, Feng Lantai was afraid that she had been waiting outside for a long time!
......
Sure enough, just after walking out of the City Lord's Mansion, Feng Lantai couldn't wait to greet him, and said gratefully: "Thank you seniors, no, it was City Lord Li who saved Feng Yu City!"
He already knew Li Yunuan's identity as a peerless city lord from Feng Minnian, so he naturally redoubled his respect for her.
Li Yunuan saw that although he was impatient in his heart, he could still thank himself for Feng Yucheng first, and he also had a little admiration, and said, "Feng San is less polite." β
Feng Lantai said: "Don't dare not be polite." β
While inviting Li Yunuan to get into the carriage, he said in a low voice: "City Lord Li's face is not happy, has he suffered a secret loss on the old thing's side?"
Li Yunuan pouted and said: "You still don't know Feng Minnian's temperament? There are people who have nothing to do, no one who has nothing to do, and the crisis has passed and refuses to fulfill the promise!"
Feng Lantai knew that Feng Minnian would definitely turn his face and deny people, and after his guess was confirmed, he immediately attached it and said: "Not only did he promise the benefits of City Lord Li and turn around, but he also didn't plan to fulfill the position of City Lord that he had promised me before! As a member of the Feng clan, I worked hard for Feng Yu City, and I shouldn't have asked for repayment! But he shouldn't have promised me benefits and turned around...... It's really chilling to say that I still need to sharpen!"
Li Yunuan said: "His character has always been like this! His vision is too small, and he only cares about his own one-third of an acre. β
When Feng Lantai heard this, he complained: "What City Lord Li said is extremely true! After this battle, he was seriously injured and could not last long. Since he can't hold on, why don't he just give up his position as the city lord? Does he still expect a miracle to survive for a few hundred more years!"
Li Yunuan said lightly: "Maybe he really thinks so, maybe not!"
Feng Lantai couldn't help but erupt, and said angrily: "It's clear that you're playing us like monkeys!"
Li Yunuan smiled instead.
Feng Lantai saw her smile lightly, and quickly changed her words, "Actually, I don't covet the position of the city lord, I just hate him for making promises but not fulfilling them." And then it's disgusting, and he ...... to his predecessors Such an unbearable character has actually been in charge of Fengyu City for hundreds of years, no wonder the status of my Fengyu City in the Northern Regions is getting more and more ...... Senior, even if it is for the future of Fengyu City, I ......"
"You want to replace it?" Li Yunuan hit the nail on the head.
Feng Lantai sneered: "I just don't want Feng Yu City to fall again. β
Li Yunuan pursed her lips and did not debunk it.
At this time, the carriage had also arrived at the temporary residence of Fenglantai, and without waiting for the carriage to stop at Fenglantai, he jumped out of the carriage and waited diligently, and his every move was just right.
Li Yunuan enjoyed this qiΔ as a matter of course.
Feng Lantai is a careerist, but he also knows current affairs, because he has performed well in the disaster brought by Feng Jinyan, he has gained enough trust from the Feng clan. But in order for Feng Minnian to give up the throne of the city lord, Li Yunuan's help is still indispensable. So he did not hesitate to serve flatteringly, in exchange for Li Yunuan's liking, and at the same time hinted that after he ascended the throne of the city lord, he would definitely promise a generous gift to Wushuang City!
Li Yunuan didn't have much interest in Fenglantai's promise, the only thing she wanted was to set the wind bead!
Since Feng Minnian turned her face and refused to admit it, she had to find another way.
......
After a little meditation and a well-balanced breath, Li Yunuan left Feng Lantai's residence and went to Feng Jinyan's mansion.
Feng Jinyan has been ambushed, and his mansion is naturally in ruins, because there are secrets buried underground that can allow the Feng clan to forcibly evolve, and Feng Minnian simply carried his weak body to press this piece into the seal.
But when he designed the seal, he obviously didn't expect that not only was the Feng family interested in this ruin, but Li Yunuan also wanted to know how Feng Jinyan forcibly improved the purity of his bloodline, and finally turned into this non-human and non-ghostly appearance!
During the battle, she actually smelled the breath of the Blood God Son on Feng Jinyan's body!
And the Son of the Blood God ...... The relationship with the Spirit Clan and Li Yeyin is extremely close!
......
Even if he is weak, he is still in the transformation period, and Feng Minnian's seal is naturally extremely strong, but unfortunately Li Yunuan is also in the transformation stage, and he found a flaw in only a few turns. In order to take care of the face of the Feng clan, she did not forcibly break it head-on, but condensed it into silk with her divine sense, slowly flowing into the ruins, quietly probing, looking for stupidity from the ice field.
The quiet, almost stagnant air, the slightest trembling could cause the consciousness to vibrate, and in the world that was slowly close to solidification, the consciousness finally touched something unusual.
Bloody gas!
It's so thick that it almost drives people crazy.
The chain of divine consciousness probed into the most bloody place, bypassed the remains of the limbs, and all kinds of strange medicines, and found a little blood clotting!
Mana fluctuations resemble blood clotting of blood particles!
It's-
Li Yunuan, who was guarding outside the barrier, opened his eyes!
The mana fluctuations on the surface of this blood coagulation were so familiar that she even felt nostalgic.
"Who are you!"
Her will flowed slowly, asking.
It's a pity that the drop of blood condensation is very weak, and he can't respond to her at all, only a trembling of excitement returns to Li Yunuan's sea of consciousness through his divine sense.
This tremor is ......
Li Yu's heart was shocked.
Among the many substances that the headless monk used to forcibly enhance the power of Feng Jinyan's bloodline, there was a blood slave mixed in!
Li Yunuan hurriedly and carefully split his divine consciousness into one-tenth of the thickness of a hair, loosely wrapped the blood condensation divine consciousness that was already close to dispersion, and guided it little by little, and it took three hours to pull it out of the ruins and pull it in front of him.
After leaving the blood pool that eroded the divine sense, the blood coagulation also recovered slightly, Li Yunuan saw that it was dilapidated and could be dispersed at any time, and he couldn't bear it, so he took a little water of life and put it in, and the blood condensation got the most mysterious liquid in the world, and suddenly the light was great, and in the blink of an eye, it changed from a drop of firefly that was about to volatilize to a fist-sized ball of light.
The ball of light slowly condensed, hooked into a one-foot-tall human shape, and it could be vaguely seen that it was a girl in her twenties, with a delicate appearance, a slender body, and a little transparent.
"Thank you for saving my life!" said the girl, her eyes full of tears.
Li Yunuan knew that most of the blood slaves were young women, so she was naturally not surprised, and said straightforwardly: "It's not without a price for me to save you." β
The blood slave wiped away his tears and said softly, "I'm just a touch of divine consciousness that may dissipate at any time, what value is there?"
Li Yunuan said: "If you are worthless, why should I work hard to get you out of the pool of blood?"
When the blood slave heard this, he frowned slightly, and replied: "You saved my life, you can only say whatever you want." β
"Okay, let me ask you, the blood slave is the food of the spirit race, why did you leave the Ice Plains Temple and appear in Fengyu City?"
The woman did not answer.
Li Yunuan repeated it again.
The blood slave lowered his head: "Our master has offended the Lord, and we have been thrown by the Lord to the headless monks for this reason. β
"What do you mean by offending the Lord!" Li Yunuan said as calmly as possible, her heart was actually extremely nervous.
The blood slave said in a low voice: "We only obeyed the dispatch of the young master, and we also have a lot of status in the temple. But...... The young master didn't know why, but he insisted on going against the Lord. Although the Lord liked him, he could not allow him to disobey him again and again. After a violent conflict, the young master completely fell out of favor and was locked up in a place where only the lord could enter and exit. We, the slaves and maidservants of the young masters, also ......"
"Do you know where the young master is being held?" asked Li Yunuan.
The blood slave lowered his face and said nothing.
"I really don't know anything about it?"
"Everyone who knows is dead, or...... It's better to live than to die......"
"It's better to live than to die?"
Li Yunuan thought of the miserable state of the blood slave being stripped of his strength and soaked in the pool of blood, it was indeed better to live than to die.
"What are you going to do next?"
The blood slave said in a low voice: "My life is in the hands of the great power, naturally the great power you want...... How to deal with it, just ......"
Li Yunuan looked at her as a pitiful resigned to fate, and couldn't help but feel pity.
"I don't know who you were before you became a blood slave, or why you chose this life with no future. But I want to tell you that even the humblest of beings have the qualifications to live. β
"Of course, the words of the great power make sense, but the blood slave was born to be the food of the spirit race, and the whole point of my life is ...... In the service of the spirits...... Keep devouring, growing, and turning yourself into delicious food for the spirits to enjoy!"
The blood slave said as a matter of course, and Li Yunuan suddenly lost interest when she heard her say this.
"In that case, I don't force it. Let's go, don't appear in front of me again!"
"Thank you. β
The Blood Slave said happily, its translucent body evaporating in the first rays of the morning sun.
