"Master Strategist, some of your words have already been said by that Elder Gong. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" An old but neutral voice came, and then I saw that all the people present moved sideways and made way for a path. At the same time, an old man in plain clothes slowly walked in front of Xun Lie along the path, and the old man saluted Xun Lie without humility or arrogance, and continued: "Master Commander, we can't accept your proposal to let us evacuate Pingyang!"

"Who are you, how can you represent the people of the city?" Xun Lie asked in a cold voice.

"Old Murong Ke is the patriarch of the Murong family in Pingyang City, and he is also the representative elected by the people of Pingyang City. The old man replied calmly.

"Murong Family?" Xun Lie wondered.

"The Murong family is the first family in Pingyang, they settled here hundreds of years ago, but unlike other families, they are not good at martial arts, they are dedicated to business, and their names are all over the northern land. Elder Guo, who was stationed in Binh Duong, immediately explained.

"It turns out that this Murong is the other Murong. Xun Lie suddenly realized.

"Exactly, my Murong family..."

"Okay, you don't have to say more, Xun asks you, to withdraw or not to withdraw?" Xun Liejian raised his eyebrows, waved his big sleeves, and asked sharply.

"Master Strategist, are you threatening the old man?" Murong Ke still looked calm, but his voice revealed a hint of displeasure.

"Don't talk nonsense, you just need to answer whether to withdraw or not to retreat!" Xun Lie's voice became colder and colder.

"You junior, you dare to be disrespectful to the clan elders!" As soon as Xun Lie's words fell, one person immediately stood up and accused him.

As soon as this person's words came out, everyone responded after his death, and they all accused Xun Lie of not being the one who accused him, and Xun Lie suddenly became the villain pointed out by Wanfu.

"You, how..." Seeing that his senior brother was insulted, Shaoyou immediately became angry, and was about to scold, but was stopped by Xun Lie.

"Senior brother, step aside. Xun Lie said in a deep voice.

"Senior brother, they..."Yan Shaoyou said hurriedly.

"Brother knows how to do it, you step down. Xun Lie said softly.

Yan Shaoyou paused, glared at Murong Ke, and retreated to Elder Guo's side.

"Okay!" Xun Lie was angry and drank softly, and everyone was stunned, and immediately shut up and stopped insulting Xun Lie.

"Elder Murong Clan, Xun knows your decision, I hope you don't regret the decision you made today!" Xun Lie glared at Murong Ke with frost on his face, and then turned his head to look at Gong Chou on the high platform, "Elder Gong, since they are unwilling to retreat, you don't have to waste your lips and tongues, let's go back to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss other matters." ”

Gong Chou nodded, jumped off the high platform, and walked to Xun Lie's side. Xun Lie glared at Murong Ke with a calm face again, turned around and left the venue with everyone.

Seeing Xun Lie and the others leaving, the people who were oppressed by his momentum in front of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Phew! you only dare to play majestic in front of us, why don't you see your majesty when you fight the barbarians!" The sloppy middle-aged man who was the most jubilant and made the most noise spat in the direction where Xun Lie and the others left, and said with disdain.

"That's it, I only know how to bully us, the powerless people, hum, that's a nice word, for our safety, let's evacuate, hum! I've been here for forty or fifty years, why do you say a word, and the old lady is leaving!" A spicy fat woman also made a fuss.

"Daughter-in-law, don't you say a word..."The thin man next to the fat woman pulled the fat woman's shirt and whispered.

"Hey, I said you have no conscience, do you want to evacuate, and then get rid of your grandmother and go to find the little one!" the fat woman lifted her husband and sprayed his saliva all over his face.

"Daughter-in-law, you know, you know what I am, I... How dare I, and in front of so many folks, you better leave me a message to save a little face!" The thin man said with a look of grievance.

"Hmph, I'll clean you up later!" the fat woman snorted coldly, and then loosened her husband's shirt.

"Okay, folks, I believe that those sect disciples will not come again to drive you away, you can go back to your home. Murong Ke said in a deep voice.

"Since Ke Lao has said so, of course we believe Ke Lao's words, then we will go back. The sloppy man laughed.

Everyone responded, and then dispersed in a hurry and walked towards their homes.

"Akai, let's go back too!" After seeing everyone disperse, Murong Ke said calmly.

"Yes, clan elder!" replied the sturdy young man behind Murong Ke.

One old and one young, one in front of the other, slowly walked towards the Murong Mansion in the west of the city.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Xun Lie sighed lightly, the words of the sloppy middle-aged man and the fat woman still echoed in his ears, he shook his head, stabilized his mind, and looked at Elder Guo: "Elder Guo, how much do you know about this Murong family?"

"Although the Murong family has a big business, it has always been low-key, the old man, I have been in Pingyang for more than 30 years, and I have never seen the Murong family oppress the people. On the contrary, they often subsidize the people of Pingyang, so their voice here is extremely high, and even my Sword Alliance does not dare to offend them easily, and as for more things, the old man does not understand. Elder Guo replied.

"Alas... The family is nothing more than to give a little favor to buy people's hearts in order to ensure their best interests, think about it, you have been working hard here for hundreds of years, and suddenly someone asked you to give up here immediately and evacuate to other places, and you don't want to. Situ Chengcheng sighed lightly.

"I really don't know how their family can be passed down for so long. Gong Chou said sarcastically.

"Inheritance, aren't you good at martial arts?" Xun Lie touched his chin and muttered softly.

"What's the matter, senior brother, have you found any clues?" asked Yan Shaoyou.

Xun Lie paused, shook his head, and then he said: "Elder Guo, I bother you to order a team of disciples to monitor the movements of the Murong family, just monitor it on the surface, and there is no need to monitor it secretly. ”

"I see, I'm going to arrange this. Elder Guo nodded and exited the hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Commander, the people don't want to leave, what should we do next?" Gong Chou asked.

"Alas... Regardless of them, we have already done what we should do, and we can only resign ourselves to fate, but Elder Gong, I have one more thing for you to do here. Xun Lie sighed lightly and said weakly.

"What's the matter?" Gong Chou asked.

"Please go to Yuzhou City, inform everyone of the situation here, and bring them here. Xun Lie said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Gong Chou replied in a deep voice, and then turned to leave.

After Gong Chou left, Xun Lie gave some tasks to Yan Shaoyou and Situ Chengcheng, the two of them were ordered to leave, Xun Lie sat in the middle of the hall, and the feeling of tiredness hit him strongly, Xun Lie sighed lightly: "Master, where have you been..." )
