Chapter Twenty-Three: Lord of the Castle
The middle-aged man was none other than Ning Haotian, the city lord of Jiangzhou City.
Seeing this scene, Chen Yu was dumbfounded.
Ning Haotian is a legendary figure, and his heroic deeds have been praised by countless people. At the martial arts forum in Jiangzhou City, everyone admires him the most. His deeds have long been picked up by people, and Chen Yu can recite his deeds on his back, don't believe you.
Ning Haotian was born poor, but he showed a very good talent since he was a child, and he was admitted to the Demon Capital Martial Arts University during the martial arts examination, and after graduation, he entered the army and made great contributions.
After he got married, he chose to retire. With his merits, there was no problem at all in going to a wealthy city to become the city lord, but he decisively chose Jiangzhou City. Because he came out of Jiangzhou City, after he had strength, he did not forget his roots, and still chose to defend Jiangzhou City.
In the more than ten years that he has been the city lord, Jiangzhou City has not been broken once. He had also taken the head of the demon beast leader in the millions of beast tides, and he had also killed countless cult elders.
At the most dangerous time, dozens of demon beasts rushed into Jiangzhou City, and the cult also held his wife hostage and forced him to surrender. However, he resolutely rejected the conditions of the cult and gave up rescuing his wife, and he led the master to kill all the monsters that rushed into the city.
In this battle, he successfully broke through to the Grandmaster Realm and became a hero in the eyes of all the people of Jiangzhou City, but ordinary people would not know what he gave up for Jiangzhou City. On that day, he did not have the joy of becoming a guru, the joy of being sung by hundreds of people, on the contrary, his heart was full of grief because he had lost his wife.
During his tenure, the little-known city of Gangju City also became one of the top cities in Gangbuk Province, and the number of warriors in the city increased dramatically, and the economy became very developed.
It can be said that he is perfect in the hearts of the people of Jiangzhou City and has no shortcomings. Chen Yu knew that with the speed of improvement of his strength, he would be able to meet him sooner or later. It's just that he didn't expect that sooner or later this would be too early.
Ning Haotian glanced at him coldly and did not speak.
Ning Ruxue was a little anxious and said, "Didn't I say it, if I don't call you, don't come out, who let you come out?" ”
"I just can't get used to seeing him do this to you."
Chen Yu's voice lowered unconsciously, in front of this legendary figure, he really didn't have the courage to speak loudly.
"You can, let him hide in your room so I can't find it."
Ning Haotian also calmed down at this time, pointed at Chen Yu and said to Ning Ruxue.
"Dad, the two of us are really nothing."
Ning Ruxue stuck out her tongue and said embarrassedly.
She knew that her father would not use mental power to perceive her room, so she had an idea and let Chen Yu hide in her room.
With Ning Haotian's eyesight, he knew that Ning Ruxue was not lying, so he was relieved. He was also too worried at the time, seeing that his daughter's hair was wet, she looked like she had just taken a bath, and Chen Yu was in her room, so he unconsciously planned to go to the worst.
It's understandable for him to do this, who has raised cabbage for more than ten years and is arched by pigs, and won't worry?
Ning Ruxue threw herself into her father's arms and said coquettishly: "Dad, how did you know that Chen Yu was at my house?" ”
Ning Haotian looked at his daughter dotingly, and said softly: "It was the security team who told me, as soon as I heard that you brought a man back, I quickly finished dealing with the matter at hand and rushed back." ”
Everyone knows that Ning Haotian is a big hero, but few people know that he is actually a daughter slave. Since the death of his wife, he felt that he owed a lot to his daughter, so he obeyed what his daughter said.
His daughter is also his intimate little padded jacket and never makes excessive demands. is also very considerate of him, knowing that he works overtime all day for the people of the entire Jiangzhou City, and he does not complain about rarely accompanying him, but supports his work.
Ning Ruxue said dissatisfiedly: "Dad, which security officer said it, you tell me." ”
Ning Haotian laughed when he heard this, "It's not easy for other security team members, so don't think about revenge." ”
Chen Yu stood aside dumbfounded, he was still dead and alive just now, how did it become such a warm scene now.
"What are you doing...... Reconciled? ”
Chen Yu thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't think of any words to describe it, so he could only use the word "reconciliation".
"We didn't have any conflicts, what kind of reconciliation should we talk about."
Ning Ruxue lay in her father's arms and said with a smile.
Then she said with some dissatisfaction: "Didn't I tell you not to come out, you still don't listen to me." ”
"I'm not worried about you."
Chen Yu scratched his head and said with a smile.
He thought that the matter had been resolved, but he didn't expect that there would be a reversal.
Ning Haotian snorted coldly, "If he didn't come out just now, he would be dead." ”
He looks down on men hiding behind women the most, men should stand up to the sky and the earth, carry everything by themselves, and hide behind women is something. As the so-called man should get married and a woman should get married, he was both a little disappointed and a little emotional about his daughter bringing back a man. He knew that even if he beat the mandarin duck now, in a few years, his daughter would still get married.
His deliberate anger just now is also a test, he wants to see if the man his daughter brought back is a coward, whether he can protect his daughter, and whether it is worth entrusting for life. Now it seems that at least Chen Yu has passed the courage level.
Ning Ruxue said coquettishly: "Dad, don't scare him." ”
Ning Haotian stroked his daughter's long silky hair, snorted coldly, and did not reply.
Cold sweat broke out on Chen Yu's forehead, and he almost entered the ghost gate with one foot. He knew that Ning Haotian was not scaring himself, if he really had a relationship with his daughter and didn't stand up in time, he would really kill himself.
As the saying goes, long pain is better than short pain, kill yourself, Ning Ruxue will be sad for a while at most, life still has to live, after a while, she will get used to not having her own life, and she will only exist in her memory. But if she doesn't kill herself, it is useless to let herself leave Ning Ruxue, just like a broken thread, she will always think about herself.
Chen Yu quickly thought about the stakes, and he was a little glad that he stood up not because he had courage, but because he was confident that Ning Haotian would not be able to kill him.
How old Ning Ruxue is, he originally thought that Ning Ruxue's father was a new grandmaster at most, even if Ning Ruxue's father wanted to kill him, he was confident that with the strength of his kendo grandmaster, he would be able to escape from Ning Ruxue's father.
What he never expected was that Ning Ruxue's father turned out to be Ning Haotian, Ning Haotian had been in the Grandmaster Realm for decades, and he could already be called a veteran Grandmaster. Ning Haotian wanted to kill himself, and no matter how he escaped, he couldn't escape.
