Chapter 0019: Phantom City Lord
The quiet and chic courtyard of the Phantom Mansion, the weeping willows in the shade sway gently in the wind from time to time, the unknown birds constantly chirping in the sky above the courtyard, and the elegant pavilions and pavilions in the green willows are distributed one after another, it is really a famous family, and it is really extraordinary! Ling Chong walked in this high-walled compound and kept looking around left and right, and the luxury in his eyes made Ling Chong secretly marvel......!
Ling Chong followed the veiled woman step by step into the living room of this village, this is the place to receive distinguished guests, if it weren't for Ling Chong's purple rhyme into the sheath, it is estimated that he would not have been met by the city lord in this main hall.
Ling Chong was politely seated on a chair by the veiled woman, and then a maid came with tea, "This young man will rest here for a while, I will go and tell the city lord!" After saying that, the veiled woman bowed and went down.
Ling Chong returned a salute, and after the veiled woman walked out, he sat here and looked around, but saw that there were antique furnishings everywhere around, and it was quiet and simple, such a place was simply not inferior to Xuantianmen, everything was so familiar, and it was very fresh, which made Ling Chong's eyes open!
In the middle of the night, when Ling Chong was starting to get a little impatient, a servant walked in from outside, and when the servant saw Ling Chong, he said, "May I ask if Your Excellency is the young man who put the Ziyun sword into the sheath?"
"Oh, that's right down!" Ling Chong replied, getting up.
"Young man, the city lord's study is invited!" the servant said again.
"Didn't you say let me wait here?" Ling Chong said in surprise.
"I don't know about this little one, the little one just does what the master tells me!" the servant bowed his head and said respectfully, Ling Chong was thinking about whether the famous family would do things or just make ordinary people unpredictable, so he secretly complained and followed the servant.
"Dangdang ......!" Ling Chong came to the door of a house under the guidance of the servant, and then the servant knocked on the door of the room a few times, and then retreated to Ling Chong and said, "Young Xia is here, you can just go in!" After speaking, the servant turned around and left without looking back.
"Eh, you wait!" No matter how anxiously Ling Chong shouted, the servant disappeared around the corner of the road in the blink of an eye, ignoring him no more.
"What is this called?" Ling Chong was very curious, "Could this be the hospitality of this Phantom City Lord?" Ling Chong couldn't figure it out left and right, so he simply didn't want to think about it, and Ling Chong pushed the door in with his mind.
"Whoosh!" Ling Chong didn't have time to react as soon as he entered the door, when a big net fell from his head and instantly buckled him, Ling Chong's face tightened, when he struggled to get out, but this net was made of no material, and he couldn't break free of it after pulling hard, Ling Chong couldn't help but be a little flustered, how could he have thought that he would be so designed in this peaceful courtyard.
"Hahaha, offending Miss Ben is such an end!" At this time, the woman in pink came out of the room, that is, the sister of the Phantom City Lord who recruited relatives.
"It turned out to be you, little demon girl, what do you want to do?" Ling Chong said angrily staring at the pink-clothed woman's unrelenting hatred, he still had a lot of things to do, but he didn't expect to be trapped here inexplicably today.
"You, you actually dare to call Miss Ben a demon girl, see if I don't teach you a lesson!" The woman in pink stared at her, and then several black-clothed men walked out of the room under the high-five.
"Teach him a lesson!" the woman in pink pointed at Ling Chong and said angrily, and then the big men walked towards Ling Chong, Ling Chong wanted to struggle out at this time, but this net was really difficult to get rid of at the moment.
"Hmph, don't waste your efforts, this net is woven by heavenly silk, although your cultivation is not low, you can't escape with your stunts!"
"Hey, I've never known you all my life, are you really here?"
"Who made you really bully me in front of so many people?" said the woman in pink in a coquettish voice.
"Call me!" the woman in pink ordered, and those big men in black raised their fists to attack Ling Chong, but they were suddenly kicked open by someone with a "bang!" from the door, this person was the woman who was waiting to wear the veil, but behind him was followed by a young man with an extraordinary appearance and a kingly atmosphere!
"Stop!" the veiled woman immediately shouted to the man in black.
"Yes, Lord Dharma Protector!" The men in black retreated one after another as the veiled woman shouted, and then turned around and walked to the door and saluted the young man respectfully, "City Lord!"
"Eh, you dog minions, how dare you disobey me?" said the woman in pink as she pointed at the black-clothed men who didn't look back.
"Bi'er, how long are you going to mess around?" At this time, from behind the veiled woman, the mysterious young man walked forward with a slight smile and a folding fan.
"It turns out that he is the Phantom City Lord!" Ling Chong thought to himself, and at the same time subconsciously looked at this noble city lord, only to see that his complexion was fair, his handsome face was as three-dimensional as a carving, and his facial features were delicate with an irresistible aura, which was really heroic.
Although his appearance seems to be very difficult to approach, but the kind light inadvertently revealed in his eyes makes people feel warm and dare not be underestimated, and I have to say that under his sword eyebrows, the pair of slender and charming eyes are full of affection, and that word and smile seem to make the girls in the world fall for themselves!
His tall nose, moderately thick red lips, is really handsome with a touch of tenderness, a splendid satin robe, not only looks graceful and luxurious, but also has a unique elegant atmosphere, the swaying in his hand with a folding fan painted with a good country, but also shows his kingly demeanor!
"Brother!" The pink-clothed woman he called Bi'er stepped forward quickly, grabbed the Phantom City Lord's arm, and at the same time pointed at Ling Chong and said coquettishly: "He, he bullied me!"
"Okay, I don't know your temper, it's good if you don't bully others!" said the Phantom City Lord, and then pointed at the veiled woman and said, "Go, loosen the net for this brother!"
The veiled woman respectfully agreed, and then released Ling Chong from the Heavenly Silkworm Net, "Brother Tai, little sister is ignorant, how offended, please brother Tai Haihan!"
Ling Chong hurriedly came over at this time to return the salute, and said: "The city lord is polite, I have seen the phantom city lord below, the city lord's prestige is like thunder, today I saw that he was really a hero, I am ashamed of myself below, admire, admire!"
"Hehe, brother Tai praised it!" "The Phantom City Lord hugged his fist.
"Brother, why do you always bully me with outsiders, I hate you!" Bi'er turned around in anger and remained silent.
"Bi'er, I already know the whole thing, you don't need to say much, go and go to the Hidden Sword Pavilion with your Aunt Lian Protector to bring the Ziyun Sword here!" said slowly, the woman wearing the veil in front of the mask responded, and then pulled the stubborn Bi'er who was still going to say something.
............
After a while, the veiled woman came over again with Ziyun in her hand, the Phantom City Lord took the sword, and at the same time waved her hand to accompany her sister Bi'er, the Phantom City Lord walked in front of Ling Chong with the sword, and smiled slightly: "Brother Tai, do you know this Ziyun Sword?"
"Oh, this divine weapon that I didn't know before!" Ling Chong replied respectfully.
The Phantom City Lord raised his hand to signal Ling Chong to sit down, and then said meaningfully: "I like to collect swords, this Ziyun is a rare treasure in my mansion, his original name is actually called Ruthless, it was created in ancient times! Legend has it that the owner of this sword fell into the devil's path because of love and hatred, and since then this sword has also been spelled by him, if it is not for the people who are destined for three lives, the sword can never be sent into the scabbard, and the ruthless sword that cannot be returned to the sheath will no longer have spirituality, almost no different from ordinary swords, so for millions of years, this ancient sword has only waited for its true destined person to arrive!"
"People who are destined for three lives!" Ling Chong repeated in shock.
"That's good!" the Phantom City Lord said with a smile.
"At first, I thought that Ling Mei was secretly casting a spell to stop it from returning to the sheath, but it turned out that I was wrong!" Ling Chong said in a low voice.
"No, you're not wrong, Brother Tai's cultivation is probably already in the Xuanling Period, and those who can cultivate the "Xuantian True Scripture" to this state are almost rare people like Brother Tai, which is really admirable, so what Brother Tai can sense will never be wrong!" The Phantom City Lord smiled faintly, his expression did not reveal a trace of abnormality, his knowledge and arrogance are absolutely very incomparable!
"City Lord, you, you can actually see my cultivation, but I can't see Your Excellency's strength, I think Your Excellency must not be an ordinary mortal, dare to ask who Your Excellency is?" Ling Chong stood up in surprise and asked repeatedly.
"Hehe, brother Tai don't panic, I won't ask you where the immortal cultivation is, and you don't need to know my true roots, you and I are all brothers, and everyone can sense that there is no malice towards each other, so it's better not to say some things than not to say them, don't you say?" The Phantom City Lord kept communicating with Ling Chong with a smile on his face.
Indeed, although Ling Chong couldn't gain insight into the cultivation of this city lord, he could really sense the arrogance in him, and he was definitely not a traitorous person, fortunately, he only knew his cultivation, and he didn't know his true identity, otherwise he, the "fish that slipped through the net", might not have a peaceful life.
Although he had just come out of the desert island and didn't know what the changes in the Xuantian Gate were at the moment, he knew that if those rebellious people knew that he was not dead, they would definitely do everything possible to find him and not let him go, which was also the reason why Ling Chong chose to land on the edge of the Yunzhou Continent.
"What the city lord said is not unreasonable, since Your Excellency is unwilling to explain, you naturally don't dare to force it, the city lord's breadth of knowledge really makes you admire!" Ling Chong said again.
"Eh, Brother Tai has won the award, I want to come to Yunzhou Continent to advocate the cultivation of the true Tao, "Xuantian Zhenjing" from the Shenzhang Mountain Xuantianmen spread and popularized, but thousands of years of time flowed, "Xuantian Zhenjing" was cultivated by different comprehensions, so it evolved into a variety of different schools, and also became a variety of forms of exercises, but what flowed on Brother Tai's body is more pure than the pure true scriptures of Xuantianmen, although there is some insight in the following, but it is also unpredictable, I think it is really in response to the sentence 'There is a sky outside the sky, there are mountains outside the mountain', and there are people outside the people!" The Phantom City Lord said with emotion again.
At this time, listening to the Phantom City Lord's remarks, he remembered the words of the guy in the blacksmith shop, the Phantom City Lord is also known as Bai Xiaosheng in the world, with a wide range of contacts and many ears and eyes, he really knows the things in the world, at this moment Ling Chong thought that he had not left the island for half a year, I don't know what happened to the current Xuantian Gate, and now this is really an excellent opportunity to find out one or two......!
