"Are we waiting for anyone here?" asked Io.

Now they were sitting in front of the railing on the second floor of an inn, opposite the street wall directly opposite the gate of the City Lord's Mansion. The height of this second floor is just right to see the Castle Lord's Mansion opposite.

The city managed by the city lord is different, although it is far less prosperous than Dongzhou, but there are market shops, and the customers are endless.

"Don't worry, it's coming. "Qin Yu deliberately sold Guan Zi by eating this thing.

They had been waiting here for almost a day, and had been sitting in this position since they arrived in the morning and had not left until now.

In the evening, the afterglow of the setting sun soaked the entire town, and the guards of the city lord's mansion came out with solemn expressions, guarding both sides of the street. A middle-aged man in a gorgeous costume walked out of the mansion.

"Nan Yang, the city lord of the Fire City, is he greeting someone with such fanfare?" Although the demon worries don't recognize people, they do recognize clothes.

"It's coming. Qin Yu put down the teacup in his hand.

At this moment, around the corner of the street, a young man riding a ghostly leopard led a transport brigade towards the City Lord's Mansion.

The man at the head was dressed in a purple and gold robe, wearing a jade crown and jade ornaments, his face was resolute, his eyes were bright, and his eyebrows were a little injured, like a sword wound.

"Tan Zhongming, the Second Palm Sect of the Agni Sect!" The description of the person in front of him was consistent with the information, the scar on his eyebrows was injured by a sword cultivator many years ago, and it was also a battle for the life and death of the Agni Sect.

"He's here to collect resources, and it's up to him to do our business. Qin Yu said.

The two women wrinkled their eyebrows at the same time, and said worriedly: "I'm afraid it's not easy, it's a bit too abrupt to talk to him now." ”

"Of course not, he will rest in the City Lord's Mansion today and leave tomorrow. ”

"Shall we deliver the prayer post, then?" asked Io.

"I think he has brought a lot of people, four nine-fold and five eight-fold, and the guards are all above the cultivation of qi. In addition, this city lord's mansion can have at least one ninefold. Qin Yu groaned, as if thinking about something.

Io looked at him and asked, "What's wrong?"

"No, it's nothing, just pass the post. Prepare a special greeting post. ”

Qin Yu and his party stayed on the second floor until the evening, and stayed in the store by the way.

The night was slightly cool, and a breeze blew through the City Lord's Mansion, and Tan Zhongming was cultivating in the cultivation room in the mansion. Outside, there was the sound of loading goods coming and going.

It wasn't until midnight that the sound ceased, the crystal light shone brightly, and the night returned to its silence. But Tan Zhongming, who was cultivating, felt that something was wrong.

The house was so quiet that there was no voice from the guards on patrol, so quiet that even his own heartbeat could be heard clearly.

"Someone!" Tan Zhongming shouted.

However, what answered him was the echo of himself that echoed in the cultivation room, and his heart flickered, and his face sank. The aura immediately emanated, and it was felt that there were countless breaths in the courtyard, at least hundreds of people.

Tan Zhongming immediately got up and turned out of the cultivation room, walked to the door and opened the door with both hands, and when his hand fell on the door, he noticed that there was a figure in his room behind him.

"What person!" he didn't look back, and his cold aura swelled for a moment, but it was dissolved by a hint of silver essence.

The cold and sharp of this silver light made him know the identity of the person who came immediately, because once he almost died under the same light.

"Jianmang~~"

Tan Zhongming turned around and saw a person in a black robe and a mask sitting at the table, holding a cup of tea in his hand. On the table in front of him, a long black sword sat silently.

"Why did this friend come to my Flame Sect?"

His gaze was fixed on the person in front of him, and the other party was able to sneak into his room silently, and he didn't notice it at all, which was enough to show that his strength was by no means ordinary.

"Tan Er Zhangjiao don't have to worry, my name is Qin Yang, a little sword cultivator. I took the liberty of visiting tonight to negotiate a deal with the master. ”

This person is naturally Qin Yu, he put down the teacup in his hand and said.

Feeling the breath of hundreds of people outside the door, Tan Zhongming's eyes lit up, and he sneered: "Deal? ho ho ~ The deal with four or five hundred people to talk about is a robbery!"

"I'm afraid the master misunderstood, the person outside the door is just a small proof of mine, you can open the door and have a look at it first, and then decide whether to talk to me or not. ”

Qin Yu smiled slightly and said, Tan Zhongming stared at him for a moment, and saw that he didn't mean to hold a sword, so he retreated from the door with momentum.

Turning around, there were four or five hundred people lying in the courtyard in front of the door, and these people were not the other party's thugs, all of them were the city lord's mansion and the people he brought.

Up to the city lord and the protector he brought, down to the guard and the maid guard in the womb, everyone up and down except for himself, all fainted in the courtyard.

Tan Zhongming, who was facing away from Qin Yu, was shocked, and he didn't notice it at all, not even the slightest fluctuation in the fight, which showed that the disparity in strength was too great, and his own people didn't even have time to react.

He was shocked in his heart, but he remained silent on the surface, and said, "Brother Qin wants to talk about something, please tell me." ”

He politely bowed his hand and also sat opposite Qin Yu. If the other party wants to seek revenge, then maybe even he is a corpse, so since it is not revenge, it is a request.

"I am from Nanzhou of the Dayu Dynasty and am a businessman. But I can't stay there anymore, so I want to find a place in this Xizhou to settle down, and I happen to meet the Second Palm Sect, so I want to come and talk, I don't know if your sect is willing to be contained. ”

Qin Yu said, Tan Zhongming's gaze never left his hand from the beginning, but Qin Yu didn't make any movements except for holding a cup of tea and drinking tea, and didn't touch the long sword on the table.

"Brother Qin wants to join my Flame Sect?" Tan Zhongming's eyes flickered, obviously disbelieving.

"I'm just a businessman, just looking for a place to continue my business. If the Flame Sect can contain it, then from now on, I, Qinling, will take root here, and from then on, you and I will naturally be both prosperous and lossy. Of course, the head coach can also refuse, but it's a big deal that Qin will go elsewhere. Qin Yu waved his hand indifferently and said.

Tan Zhongming was silent for a moment and said, "I'm afraid this is not a coincidence. ”

"Of course not, because the Flame Cult is the weakest of the eighteen forces, so I will have a better chance. Qin Yu did not shy away from it.

Although the words are direct, Tan Zhongming is irrefutable, which is recognized. Moreover, even these eighteen forces, their Flame Sect, are about to be eliminated.

"How can I believe that you won't cross the river and tear down the bridge when you become bigger, if you take your place at that time, then my Flame Sect will not raise tigers and shoot myself in the foot. He said in a deep voice.

"As I said, Qin is just a businessman. If the head of the sect has this concern, it doesn't hurt, I will leave, there are still seventeen forces outside, with the green edge in my hand, I don't believe that I can't find someone who is willing to accept it. Qin Yu was about to leave.

"Brother Qin, please stay, I'm just asking casually. Since Brother Qin wants to sit down in my Huohe Mountain Range, there are three conditions below. Tan Zhongming hurriedly called Qin Yu.

He was not sure about keeping Qin Yu in force, because he couldn't do it himself to kidnap more than 400 people in the mansion silently, once he was allowed to go to other forces, then the name of this precarious eighteen forces might really change hands.
