Chapter Forty-Eight: The Silver Lion's Troubles

Ling Xi and the three of them were wandering around the downtown of Sunset City, and the slim Shi Zhuxue and Li Shuangyu seemed to wear halos wherever they went, and immediately attracted the attention of many people. Every time the three of them pass by, someone will whisper about how beautiful Zhu Xue and Li Shuangyu will be after they grow up, and when the suitors of the second daughter will probably be able to fill the sunset pit.

Shi Zhuxue said to buy this for a while, and then said to buy that, and it didn't take long for Ling Xi to hold a lot of things, but fortunately, he now has more than forty source crystals on him, and he can be regarded as a rich man, otherwise he would not have the money to pay these accounts for Shi Zhuxue.

In fact, Shi Zhuxue has a space ring, but in order to let Ling Xi take things, she didn't put the things she bought into the space ring.

Li Shuangyu and Shi Zhuxue are just the opposite, they have always been very quiet, just quietly accompanying Ling Xi, and rarely even speaking.

Along the way, Ling Xi heard that many people were talking about the palace's suppression of the Silver Lion Beast Hunting Troupe, so he asked:

"Senior sister, what is the matter between your Silver Lion and the Royal Mansion, how could the Royal Mansion suddenly suppress your Silver Lion?"

"I don't know the specific reason, it seems that my father and the head of the royal mansion have something to discuss, and the head of the royal mansion is angry because of this, and then the royal mansion directly said that whoever wants to buy the things of our Silver Lion Beast Hunting Group is the enemy of the royal mansion, so the most discussed thing in Sunset City now is that the royal mansion suppresses the Silver Lion Beast Hunting Regiment. โ€

Li Shuangyu shook her head, and when she talked about it, her face was full of sadness.

Ling Xi asked with concern:

"And how are you Silver Lion?"

Ling Xi knew that although the Silver Lion was the number one beast hunting group in Sunset City, it was still easy for the palace to cut off the silver lion's economic resources, after all, the palace controlled most of the economy of Sunset City, and the silver lion was still too weak in comparison.

"Fortunately, my sister's master is the dean of Sunset Academy, and the palace doesn't dare to push the silver lion too hard, although the silver lion is not very good now, but it has not yet reached the point of exhaustion, besides, it really can't be done and Zhuxue helps us. โ€

Li Shuangyu may have been afraid that Ling Xi would be worried, and showed a smile that reassured Ling Xi, but Ling Xi still saw the sadness in her eyes.

"You take these back, and the silver lion's crisis will be solved. โ€

Ling Xi handed Li Shuangyu a bag, which contained the source crystals he had obtained in the Sunset Forest.

"This is too expensive for me to want. โ€

Li Shuangyu took the bag and saw so many source crystals, she was really taken aback, and hurriedly returned the bag to Ling Xi.

"You just take it, these source crystals are of no use to me anyway. โ€

Ling Xi smiled, you gave Li Shuangyu more than twenty source crystals, and he kept some of the rest for himself, just in case.

"But ยทยทยทยทยทยท"

Li Shuangyu was still a little hesitant, so many Yuan Crystals were a lot of wealth, which was equivalent to half a year's income of their Silver Lion.

"Take it, with these source crystals, your silver lion can be saved. โ€

Although the palace said that buying silver lion things is to be the enemy of the palace, in front of the extremely rare source crystals, even if they want to offend the palace, there will be people who will rush to buy these source crystals first.

"Then I'll take it, thank you, junior brother. โ€

Li Shuangyu was very touched in her heart that Ling Xi could give her so many source crystals without hesitation, with these source crystal silver lions, she would be able to survive the current economic crisis, because no one would be stupid enough not to want these rare source crystals, and as long as the silver lion spread the news of the sale of source crystals, naturally there would be people competing to buy them, and it was difficult to say whether the palace could sit still.

Shi Zhuxue looked around at the dazzling array of things and said:

"If you want me to say, the palace is just not cleaned up, thinking that no one in Sunset City can control them, so they dare to do whatever they want, if Sister Shuangyu asked me to go to the palace to make trouble at the beginning, the palace would definitely not dare to suppress the silver lion. โ€

"You dare to say that. โ€

Shi Zhuxue's eccentricity made Li Shuangyu shake her head, if she hadn't stopped Shi Zhuxue at the beginning, Shi Zhuxue might have gone to the palace to make a big fuss.

"What is it that your father and the head of the royal family discussed that made the royal palace spend so much effort to suppress you silver lions. โ€

Ling Xi frowned slightly, he felt that the matter discussed between the Silver Lion and the palace was by no means that simple, otherwise the palace would not be so prosperous, after all, suppressing the silver lion also cost money.

Li Shuangyu shook his head and said:

"Only my father knows what it is, and my father didn't say anything about it in Silver Lion, so I don't know. โ€

"That being the case, I'm afraid it's not a trivial matter. โ€

Ling Xi had a thoughtful look on his face, the head of the royal mansion must have threatened Li Wanlei, so that Li Wanlei did not dare to mention the matter discussed with the head of the royal family, which further showed that the matter they discussed was not so simple.

Shi Zhuxue said at this time:

"I think it has something to do with the City Lord's Mansion. โ€

"City Lord's Mansion?"

Ling Xi glanced at Shi Zhuxue in surprise, the color of thought between his eyebrows became even stronger, and then he immediately reacted and said:

"Yes, why didn't I think of it, maybe it really has something to do with the City Lord's Mansion, Zhuxue is very smart. โ€

Who in Sunset City doesn't know that the palace has coveted the location of the City Lord's Mansion for a long time, and it is not impossible to say that it is not impossible for him to win over the Silver Lion for the position of the City Lord's Mansion, after all, the strength of the Silver Lion is not much weaker than that of some families, not to mention that the Silver Lion also has a close relationship with the Sunset Academy, and it is extremely beneficial for the palace to win over the Silver Lion.

Thinking about it, Ling Xi was even more sure that the matter that the silver lion and the palace were talking about had something to do with the City Lord's Mansion.

"Of course. โ€

Ling Xi's praise made Shi Zhuxue's chin raised, and her face was arrogant.

"It's impossible, the palace is the enemy of the Hongling Empire when it moves against the City Lord's Mansion, does the palace really have that guts?"

Li Shuangyu shook her head, anyway, she didn't believe that the palace dared to really move the city lord's mansion, she knew that the city lord of Sunset City was hand-picked by the monarch of the Hongling Empire, and the palace moving the city lord's mansion was tantamount to being an enemy of the Hongling Empire, so she felt that the palace did not have the courage to move the city lord's mansion.

"That's not for sure. โ€

Ling Xi smiled, who could guess what the palace was thinking, the current strength of the palace was stronger day by day, he didn't believe that the palace didn't have any thoughts about the position of the city lord.

"Since the palace plans to make a move on the city lord's mansion, it means that the palace is fully prepared, and the purple mother-in-law said that the palace has almost opened up the relationship with the Hongling Empire, so even if the palace makes a move on the city lord's mansion, I think the Hongling Empire will not have any movement. โ€

Shi Zhuxue said.

"No, the palace can have such great ability, and the relationship between the Hongling Empire has been opened. โ€

Li Shuangyu's face was full of disbelief, although the palace is one of the three major forces in Sunset City, but if the palace is at the level of the Hongling Empire, then the palace is a force that cannot be smaller, making people can't believe that it can open up the relationship between the Hongling Empire.

"If it is really related to the City Lord's Mansion, it means that the palace is ready to make a move on the City Lord's Mansion, and I have a hunch that the palace will not endure it for long. โ€

Ling Xi said and looked at the tallest building in Sunset City, the City Lord's Mansion, for this position, Sunset City was afraid that there would be an earth-shattering battle.

City Lord's Mansion, Luo Chongchen walked behind a middle-aged man and said:

"Father, the palace has been in contact with the Zhang family again today, and the Zhang family's current attitude is not clear. โ€

This middle-aged man is like a Confucian scholar who has read poetry and books, and he can't feel a trace of edge from him, and he is the city lord of Sunset City, Luo Wufeng, one of the four great earth seals.

Luo Wufeng took a deep breath and said:

"What forces are standing on the side of the palace now?"

"Up to now, except for the Zhang family, the Li family, and the Silver Lion Beast Hunting Troupe, the rest of the powerful families have all said that they are standing on the side of the palace. โ€

Luo Chongchen's face was not angry, these families had received a lot of benefits from their City Lord's Mansion at the beginning, but they were all ungrateful, and now they had to help the palace deal with them.

Luo Wufeng didn't know what the expression was on his face, but he smiled and said:

"Wang Fengyun, can't you finally take it anymore?"
