Chapter Forty-Nine: The City Lord
In the early morning, the breeze blows the wicker and dances in the air, and the leaves of the great aspen slowly swirl with the wind before finally falling to the ground and to the roof.
Today's weather is not hot, but cool, and there is a layer of dark clouds all over the sky, and it looks like a heavy rain is coming.
At this moment, in the courtyard of the Yang family, there were three people standing, and the leader was over fifty, but he was an old dragon clock, with a ruddy complexion, as if he was in his early thirties. The two people in the back were bound by long hair, dressed in green clothes, and seemed to be sixteen or seventeen years old, one with clear eyebrows and smiling faces. One of them had a grim face, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was thinking.
These three people are Yang Litian, Yang Hao, and Chu Ye.
Today, I want to participate in the city conference, I went a few days ago, and I didn't even have a chance to meet the city lord, although I can definitely see it today, but how to take the task is still a problem, after all, I guessed that the task would be released today, and it was just his guess.
At this time, Yang Litian turned around and reminded: "Go to the meeting today, you two try not to talk and act when the opportunity arises, after all, although the city lord is a mortal, if he provokes it, it will not be so comfortable." ”
Chu Ye and Yang Hao nodded, what they said was right, although the city lord was a mortal, how could he not have a little strength to be able to sit on the city lord?
Walking out of the gate, waiting for a while, there was a clatter, the sound of horses' hooves was gradual, and a carriage slowly approached from a distance, and a puff of dust was set off on the ground.
As the carriage approached, the groom saluted respectfully, then lifted the curtain and said, "Come in, three of you." ”
Yang Litian nodded, entered the carriage with Chu Ye Yang Hao, and with a shout of driving, the carriage headed straight in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion.
At the gate of the city lord, the sound of the carriage clattering gradually came, and the carriage that Chu Ye was riding slowly drove over.
"Stop, this place is the city lord's mansion, idlers are not allowed to enter!"
Yang Litian lifted the curtain, took out a token, and said: "I am Yang Litian, the head of the Yang family, and I was invited by the city lord to come to discuss the matter. ”
When will you be respected as long as you have power, the guard saw the token, his face changed slightly, and he bowed down with a smile and said: "It turned out to be Lord Yang, please come in, please come in, Lord City Lord has been waiting for a long time." ”
The curtain was closed, and the carriage clattered forward into the city lord's mansion.
After getting out of the carriage, Chu Ye looked at it and was surprised in his heart, although it was only a mortal city, it was also splendid, glazed tiles, white jade walls, and he also enjoyed it very much.
But after all, it is a mortal land, Chu Ye felt it slightly, his aura was weak, and it was not suitable for cultivation.
Entering the city lord's cabinet, the two rows of seats were already full of people, and as far as the eye could see, although there were only a few people, they were cheesy, and they were really mortals.
Seeing Yang Litian coming, the city lord waved his hand and said with a smile: "Mr. Yang, please take a seat." ”
Yang Litian nodded, glanced at Chu Ye and Yang Hao, and then stepped forward to find a seat and sit down.
Chu Ye and Yang Hao were sitting next to Yang Litian, next to them, there were two young juniors, Chu Ye glanced at it, one was already in the middle stage of Qi refining, and the other was in the late stage of entering the path.
Chu Ye glanced around, there were two rows of seats, the first row was for people like Yang Litian, the second row was for everyone to bring their entourage, and on the high platform opposite was the city lord.
Chu Ye only began to look at the city lord at this time, his body was bloated, his face was pale, his hair was already half white, his eyes were cloudy, and there was a sense of decline in his gestures.
Chu Ye was shocked in his heart, and looked at the people around him, but found that no one noticed this, but they all had a look of arrogance.
Chu Ye shook his head, sure enough, they were all young and vigorous, he carefully condensed his spiritual power in his gaze, looked at the city lord, and suddenly the information was revealed, but Chu Ye was taken aback.
Zhao Xingde: The lord of Charm City, a mortal. Status: 50% loss of essence and spirit, severe corrosion of yang energy.
Looking at the pale city lord, Chu Ye frowned, but there was a new guess in his heart, this city lord was estimated to be overindulgent, of course, there could be other reasons, at this time, Chu Ye suddenly became interested in that prostitute.
"Prostitute, if you guess correctly, she is definitely not an ordinary woman!" Chu Ye twitched the corners of his mouth slightly, and sneered in his heart.
At this time, the city lord raised his glass, and then said with a smile: "Everyone come, Zhao is grateful, a few days ago, Zhao did not say what he wanted to say, and today he summoned everyone to come, it is really important to ask for something!"
He stood up, but he was a little unsteady, his face was bitter, he raised his hand, bowed deeply to everyone, and then said: "Zhao summoned everyone to come here to let everyone help, to help me go to You Huolin to find a demon beast named ...... Fire Tiger Beast, and obtain its inner pill, give it to me!"
"What!"
Everyone stood up with a look of disbelief, except for Chu Ye, who had known about this for a long time, so he just sat there at the moment, his eyes flickering.
Yang Litian often deals with different people, so he naturally knows the level of beasts.
He knew that these beasts were generally beasts, then demon beasts, and then spirit beasts. Each one is divided into nine levels, this fire tiger beast already belongs to the ninth level demon beast, it is the realm of the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, plus the body of the demon beast has a strong defense, and against its enemy, it is really looking for death.
Don't say that they are mortals, even if they are immortal cultivators, I am afraid that they will be difficult to deal with, and the city lord actually asked them to look for the Fire Tiger Beast, all of this is simply a fool's dream.
At that moment, Yang Litian stood up and said: "Lord City Lord, this fire tiger beast is extremely powerful, even an axe can't cut it with a skin, and this tiger is a demon tiger, it can breathe fire, and its whole body has a violent temperature, and it is difficult to find, even if we find it, we can't kill it!"
At this time, someone stood up again and said, "Lord of the City, this Fire Tiger Beast is really in the ranks of immortal beasts, and we, mortals, are not its opponents at all!"
Zhao Zhao, the head of the Spell City Weapons Shop, stood up rudely, and said loudly in a deafening voice: "This matter is indeed not something we can do, Lord City, it's not me Lao Zhao who said you, it's really this fire tiger beast I have also heard of, it seems to be very powerful, and a hundred ordinary tigers are not its opponents!"
"And Lao Zhang also said just now, he will breathe fire, let's not be roasted to death by him, I don't want to be roasted!"
For a time, there were voices of opposition in the field.
Zhao Xingde frowned slightly, obviously everyone's reaction made him very embarrassed, but he had to get this Fire Tiger Beast Neidan, and the prostitute said that without the Fire Tiger Beast Neidan, she would definitely die.
This Zhao Xingde is also a violent temper, listening to the attitude of everyone in his ears, he was a little angry, and he was about to scold him immediately, but at this moment, an extremely discordant voice came, but it made Zhao Xingde happy.
"Isn't it the Fire Tiger Beast? I'll help you kill, cut, a group of cowards, a small Fire Tiger Beast will scare you In the eyes of you mortals, the Fire Tiger Beast is a fairy beast, but in our eyes, it is just a little tiger. ”
The person who spoke looked to be about forty years old, and his realm was already in the middle stage of Qi refining, and his face was arrogant. Chu Ye saw him sitting behind Zhao Rude in the weapons shop, and it was estimated that he was Zhao Rude's person.
