Chapter 128: Popularity

The woman seated in the center of the chamber looked to be in her thirties and forties. Of course, Wan Peng knows that in Jiangxiao, it is difficult to tell the age from the appearance.

Cheng Mo stepped forward at this time. Seeing Cheng Mo and the four of them coming back, the city lord looked surprised, stood up from the chair, greeted him directly, looked up and down for a while, and then turned his head to look at Wan Peng again. Soon, she turned her gaze back to the men in black again, "You guys...... Why are you coming back again? Didn't I say that if you get out of the encirclement of the water rhinoceros, tell sΓΉ this team not to move forward, and you can leave Shuiqing City and make a living for yourself?"

Her voice was gentle but not weak, and there was a majesty in her words, indeed the verbal feeling of a benevolent and generous city lord.

"The three battalions and nine rows of the escort team are silent, and fortunately they are not dishonored. However, this is the captain of the team outside the castle and wants to see the lord of the castle. What needs to be done to the city lord is that the subordinates can return safely, all thanks to this captain. One of them repelled the group of water rhinos that pursued the four of us, and at the same time, with the strength of two people, they defeated more than ten counterattacking water rhinos. Cheng Mo turned his head to look at Wan Peng, and reported to the city lord, "Moreover, he entered the city and said that he would relieve the siege for us." ”

As soon as Cheng Mo's words came out, the hall was in an uproar! Even the city lord was also half-open, looking incredulous.

The two of them defeated more than ten water rhinos, which is not something that no one can do in the city, but it is never more than ten people. But looking at Wan Peng, it is obviously still very young, and it is not easy to achieve such combat power under such circumstances. What's more, he also brought a team, one team at a time to repel a small group of water rhinos!

The point is that in this situation of besieging the city on all sides, he actually said that he would help Shui Qingcheng relieve the siege!

Sensing everyone's disbelief, Wan Peng did not hide it at this time, hugged his fist to the city lord, then turned to the sides, and finally said to the city lord, "Wan Peng outside is a Xuanxiao cultivator." I came to the Jiangzhou Continent for some special reasons, just in time to catch up with this catastrophe. Because my fighting style is different from yours, maybe my team and I can help in breaking the siege of Shuiqing City. ”

As soon as Wan Peng spoke, the others quickly quieted down. The city lord's expression changed from disbelief to contemplation, and after a while he spoke, "Xuan Xiao, cultivator, I feel that I have heard it somewhere, but I don't have any special impressions. ”

Wan Peng nodded, "Well, that's normal." This place should be isolated from us. ”

The city lord also smiled slightly, the other expressions on his face were swept away, and he said softly, "Since you have entered the city, you must be a guest." It's just that this matter of breaking the siege may still need to be considered in the long run. ”

I have to say that this city lord has a very attractive face, and anyone who looks at it in his eyes can't help but feel a little comfortable in his heart. Wan Peng nodded again, and was about to say that his team was still outside the city, could he enter the city, but a person behind him suddenly said in an urn, "City Lord, I remember, I think of what happened to Xuanxiao and the cultivator!"

The tone in which this man said this was marked by a clear flash of inspiration, or a sense of sudden realization, but also a very strong element of surprise. Wan Peng certainly didn't want that tone. Because in the village, the reputation of those two cultivators is not good. If outside, the reputation of those two cultivators is also rotten to that Cheng dΓΉ, he has to know a lot of things in order to change the opinion of others, including the team he leads.

However, no matter what, his identity as a cultivator cannot be hidden. That's why he made it out from the beginning. Originally, he thought that no one in the city would think of anything, but in the end, someone finally brought it up.

The city lord turned his head, frowned slightly, and asked, "What is it?"

The old man who had just spoken stroked his beard and took a few steps forward, "Yes, I remember." A hundred years ago, the Golden Horn and Silver Horn General of the Jiangzhou Continent was a cultivator from Xuanxiao!"

As soon as he said this, the audience was in an uproar. Even the city lord himself couldn't help but turn his head and looked Wan Peng up and down twice.

"Are you really a cultivator from Xuanxiao?" the city lord finally couldn't help but speak again.

Wan Peng nodded. He didn't have much to say, so he could only wait for the others to react. However, the golden-horned and silver-horned generals, this nickname is really vulgar enough. Wan Peng vaguely remembered that in the Floating Cloud Continent, there was an ancient book of Zhiwei called Xi Whatji, in which there were two virtual monsters, called the Golden Horn King and the Silver Horn King, which were very similar to the Golden Horn and Silver Horn General.

"I think back then, the general of the Golden Horn and Silver Horn, how wise and martial he was, helped Jianggaozu and unified the Jiangzhou Continent, and his fame was prominent. If it weren't for the fact that they suddenly disappeared, I am afraid that they would not have let this beast become today's calamity, and they would have been bulldozed in one go! Could it be that it is a gift from heaven that another cultivator has come to our Shuiqing City today?" The city lord's words were more like emotion, and in the end, he was already so excited that his voice trembled.

The people around her, hearing what the city lord said, suddenly cheered one by one. The long period of siege has already caused them to lose their spirits.

Wan Peng never imagined that in such an official and administrative city, two old cultivators would still have such high popularity. Come to think of it, they actually took the wrong path and harmed the village, but they rarely maintained a good external image in the midst of official orthodoxy. From this, we can also think about how insidious the hearts and actions of two people are.

"City Lord, my ability is limited, I'm afraid I won't be able to reach the kind of Cheng dΓΉ of the two great generals. However, when I entered the city, I also wanted to try my best to help Shuiqing City break the siege. When I came to the mainland of Jiangzhou, I first arrived at a small village, but because the village was threatened, and for some other reason, we left together. Now, the villagers are still outside, hoping that the city lord will allow them to enter the city. ”

The lord of the city immediately issued an order, asking the convoy to send three battalions to bring the villagers into the city, and at the same time arrange a full defense on the city wall. From this amount, Wan Peng knew that she must want to fight hard to pull the villagers in, so she spared no cost. Wan Peng smiled slightly, "City Lord, you don't have to move the people. I'll go out of the city again, and I'll take my team into the city. ”

The city lord was shocked, "This ......"

However, at this time, Cheng Mo stepped forward and truthfully reported Wanpeng's entry into the city, and the worries on the city lord's face dissipated. He led everyone out of the conference hall, watched Wan Peng get on the flying blanket by himself, and then followed him up to the city tower to watch Wan Peng lead the flight from a distance.

More than a dozen flying blankets rose into the air together, and there were hundreds of fire thunderbirds behind them to transport supplies, and in the Jiangzhou mainland, its spectacular journey was breathtaking. Wan Peng was also very glad that he was going to use a flying blanket, so he directly packed a large bundle in the Northeast Repair District Supervision Bureau and put it into the ring.

Fly all the way and be safe and sound. The group landed smoothly in the city square, and the city lord personally stepped forward to greet them. Since Wan Peng is now leading the team, Bai Shou doesn't talk much in the team, but Wan Peng still introduces him to the city lord very seriously.

The city lord's name is Yelu Yarong, the only daughter of the former city lord Yelu Xiongguan, after the old city lord passed away, many internal reference figures thought she was intelligent, and at the same time, her personal cultivation was also good, and she was elected as the city lord. Now, the lord of the city has long been married, but his husband never asks about political affairs and rarely appears in public. People usually refer to her as Lady Jerod or Lord of Jerod.

After the team was brought in, the lord of Yelu carefully asked the soldiers of the escort to take them to settle down, and at the same time offered to replenish their supplies. Wan Peng and Bai Shou both refused at the same time. Before entering the city, they had already stated that they would not resupply here, and now they did not want to break their promise.

As for the lifting of the siege, the city lord did not say a word. However, Wan Peng saw that his team was all settled, and took the initiative to ask the Yelu City Lord, "Yelu City Lord, now that Shuiqing City is trapped, if you want to relieve this siege, I think it is mainly our escort force." I don't know how many people are in this Shuiqing City Guard?"
