Chapter Five: Keeping People Under the Sword

All the Gaohu warriors suddenly looked at each other, and they all did not understand this decision. The Gaohu people who are mercenaries have always maintained good relations with the major forces, and these are all big patrons. The Nanqing City Lord himself is not strong, so he is not very powerful.

Mercenaries rely more on them, and they are the best kind of customers for the Gaohu people. Why are they suddenly going to war with him?

However, since it is Zhan Nu's decision, everyone will not have any objections and will prepare their own preparations now.

At this moment, Qingyue has contacted several strongholds. After gathering her clan members, even if the lord of Nanqing City launches a massive attack, she is confident that she and Qianye will fight out of Nanqing City. Only then did she feel a little more at ease in her heart.

Qianye and Xiao Zhuji in front were looking so relaxed and content, as if they didn't notice her secret arrangements at all. Qingyue was so angry that she gritted her teeth. She didn't believe that Qianye was so unpredictable that he wouldn't be able to detect her little moves. Now she really didn't know where he was.

What kind of idea did he have in mind? Did he have a well-thought-out plan, or had he planned it in advance and wanted to borrow the help of the Gaohu people.

At this moment, in the city lord's palace, Ji Rui is sitting in the Grand Master's chair, sipping tea leisurely and admiring the exotic flowers and plants in the garden. A corner of the garden is surrounded by a force shield, and there is a small pond inside with dense growth.

There are ferns and algae plants, and a small lotus flower blooms in the center of the pond, with a light purple line on each of its petals as white as jade.

In this small secret realm protected by the Force, the climate is obviously very different from the outside world. At this moment, there is lightning and thunder inside, and it is actually raining heavily.

Ji Rui's eyes never left the little lotus flower, and the light in his eyes was blazing. At this moment, there was a rapid knock on the door outside the garden. Ji Rui suddenly looked unhappy and shouted: "What's going on? You can't wait for me."

Let’s talk after you wake up?”

The voice of Liu Yuanxi, the general manager of the City Lord's Mansion and deputy commander of the City Guards, sounded outside the courtyard gate: "City Lord, there is an important person in the city. You still need to decide how to deal with it."

"Wait!" Ji Rui's face was still ugly. Although he has not yet broken through the Divine General Heavenly Pass, he is only one step away from it. In the area around Nan Qing City, he is a man of his word. Apart from Spider Emperor, Mask

, there are other important people like the Wolf King who can be more important than the lotus in the secret realm?

Ji Rui held the handpot in one hand, walked out of the garden, closed the garden door, and said coldly: "Who is the important person? Can we talk about it now?"

Liu Yuanxi lowered his voice and said, "It's Zhao Ye."

"Who?" Ji Rui didn't react for a moment.

"Zhao Ye, also known as Qianye, was the one who crippled the Fury of the Wind in the Black Forest. Hundreds of brothers from our city guard also died in his hands. Your lumber mill."

"Needless to say! He still dares to come?" Ji Rui interrupted Liu Yuanxi rudely, and his face instantly dropped, which was very ugly. He made a heavy bet on the lumberyard, but was burned by Qianye.

It's clean, not only loses all the money, but also has to pay a large amount of compensation. Those lumberjacks are not ordinary workers, they are mercenaries who put down their Force guns.

Ji Rui's face was livid, he raised his right hand and raised his palm into a sword. This was his habitual action. As long as his right hand fell down, it meant that he would be killed without mercy!

Liu Yuanxi suddenly had a murderous look on his face, waiting for the city lord to make a decision. But Ji Rui's fat hand was fixed in the air and never fell. He felt strange in his heart. When he looked up, he saw the fat on the city lord's face constantly shaking, his expression changing, and sometimes gritting his teeth.

, sighing from time to time, but the right hand seemed to be frozen in the air, with no trace of its whereabouts at all.

Ji Rui suddenly noticed Liu Yuanxi's gaze, snorted, retracted his right hand, wiped the sweat from his forehead, put it down, and said: "This damn weather is already so hot."

At this moment, it was clear that there were overcast clouds overhead, and there was still a chilly air in the wind. The word "heat" couldn't be more congruent with each other. But Liu Yuanxi nodded repeatedly and said flatteringly: "Yes, yes, it's getting hot earlier this year."

Ji Rui took a sip of tea and asked, "Has Qianye changed his disguise?"

Liu Yuanxi looked embarrassed and said, "He added two beards." After finishing his sentence, seeing Ji Rui's ugly face, he quickly added, "He also changed his clothes."

What's the difference between this kind of disguise and no disguise? Qianye's move is too arrogant. Especially his cultivation of the Force is not very advanced. Judging from the numbers on paper, there are a lot of people in Nanqing City who can overwhelm him.

Ji Ruicheng was solemn. Although his face was ugly, he still said: "After all, I have changed my appearance."

"Yes, yes! How dare he enter the city with his true self?"

He knew that this was untrue, but he still found it useful. Ji Rui's face immediately relaxed a lot, and said: "In that case, let's not scare the snake first. What is he doing in the city? Have you found out?"

"He went to several arms stores and bought mostly equipment related to aerial battleships, but they were all second-hand goods. Oh, by the way, he placed an order at a store to purchase a power sail, the largest, standard

The tallest kind."

Ji Rui raised his short eyebrows and said thoughtfully: "He wants to build a floating battleship?"

"With this little equipment, it's still far from building a ship, right?"

Ji Rui shook his head and said: "Any ship that can use a power sail is a big ship, and then there are long-distance ships that can cross the void. From my perspective, this power sail is what he really wants to buy."

Liu Yuanxi said: "City Lord, what should we do now?"

Ji Rui thought for a moment and said, "Send someone to keep an eye on him, but don't provoke him. Do you understand?"

"Yes. But City Lord, the Thirteenth Young Master has just left the mansion."

Ji Rui was taken aback and said, "What is he going to do again?"

"The young master heard that the little girl appeared in the city, so he took his personal guards out of the house. None of his men could stop her!"

With a bang, Ji Rui slammed the teapot to the ground. Tea and broken porcelain flew everywhere, and a lot of them splashed on the city lord's robe. But he didn't care about it and said angrily: "Why didn't you tell me earlier! Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

What are you doing standing here, why don't you send someone to catch that little bastard quickly? If he dares to resist, beat him unconscious on the spot and bring him back. No, you go there yourself, go now!"

"But Mrs. He"

Ji Rui's face suddenly darkened and he shouted: "Go quickly!"

Liu Yuanxi did not dare to say any more and left quickly.

Ji Rui's face became increasingly gloomy. He snorted coldly, flicked his robe sleeves, and strode towards the city lord's mansion. Nan Qingcheng said it was big or small, and his son wanted to find someone in the city, so what?

It couldn't be easier. At this time, it's time to stand in front of Qianye, right? Even if Liu Yuanxi rushed at full speed, it would be too late.

"Huh! These guys are all starting to have different intentions. Do you really want to try my Ji's methods?" Ji Rui muttered to himself and walked through the corridor and entered the meeting room.

Many attendants in the mansion saw this and hurriedly followed them, waiting aside for instructions. However, Ji Rui just sat down in the big chair, with a sullen face and said nothing. Everyone looked at each other in confusion, who dared to come forward to ask, they were all in the hall.

Waiting.

At this moment, in front of the largest arms store in Nan Qingcheng, Qianye raised his head to look at the store logo, and then at the young man blocking the door.

This store is called Yunxiao Building, and it mainly sells floating battleship equipment. It is the largest arms store in Nanqing City. The name of the store is so bold, and the scale is indeed worthy of its name. The entire store is five floors high and occupies a small half of a block.

At this moment, in front of Yunxiao Building, several shop assistants and guards were standing nearby, constantly showing signs of caution. The young master ignored him and just stared at Qianye with a gloomy gaze, occasionally looking at Xiao Zhu who was sitting on Qianye's shoulder.

Ji.

Finally the young master couldn't help it, gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't expect that you still have the courage to come to Nan Qingcheng!"

Qianye was looking at the floating battleship on the roof of Yunxiao Tower. Hearing this, he looked away, smiled faintly, and said, "What, is Nan Qing City closed?"

Several tall guards behind the young master immediately became furious, shouting incomprehensibly, and wanted to step forward and give Qianye a lesson. However, the young master stretched out his hand, stopped his men, and said that he

Then he took a few steps forward and came to Qianye. His face was a little distorted and he said, "Who are you trying to deceive with this disguise? As long as you are not blind, who doesn't know who you are?"

Qianye's smile did not change and he said, "Yes, anyone who is not blind knows who I am."

There was something obviously wrong with what he said, and Qianye's reaction was completely different from what the Thirteenth Young Master had expected. He was startled, and then glanced at Xiao Zhu Ji, and his heart suddenly felt hot, like a volcano about to erupt.

The young master lowered his lips, and with all his sarcasm, he took a step closer to Qianye and said, "Since you know this, you still dare to come to Nan Qingcheng! Do you know who I am?"

Qianye smiled and said: "Of course I don't know who you are, but I'm about to find out now. But I'm sure you don't know who I am yet."

The young master suddenly burst out, almost jabbing his finger on Qianye's face, jumping to his feet and screaming: "Do I need to know who you are?!"

At this time, a guard quickly grabbed him and whispered in his ear: "Master, let's go back first!"

The Thirteenth Young Master could hardly believe his ears and said angrily: "Go back? Why go back? This guy has killed so many of us. As long as we cut him down, it will be a great achievement!"

The guard looked bitter, almost crying, and continued: "Master! Think about it, he killed so many of us."

The Thirteenth Young Master was even more furious. Seeing that the bodyguard was timid and fearful, he planned to find someone more useful. However, when he looked around, he saw that all the bodyguards had pale faces and hesitated to step forward.

In fact, everyone understood what the head guard meant. Qianye fought against the main force of the Fury of the Wind in the Black Forest and went upstream. In the end, he almost killed the Fury of the Wind. If a large mercenary group came back,

They were disbanded on the spot. More than two thousand mercenaries died in that battle. Now, with their bodyguards of less than twenty, they want to kill Qianye? It's still daylight, it's still too early to dream.

The Thirteenth Young Master finally came to his senses, but he still refused to give in. He gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you go back and report to the city lord!"

The guards are even more helpless. Even the Thirteenth Young Master has received the news. Does the city lord know that Qianye has entered the city? Qianye has been arrogant in the city until now, which shows that the city lord does not want to cause this trouble at all.

The guard wanted to persuade me again, but Xiao Zhuji suddenly said: "I remembered that it was him who was leading the group at that time. He said very strange things to me and wanted to hold me to sleep!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the street suddenly became silent and there was no sound anymore.

The wind stopped blowing, but the temperature suddenly dropped, as if it was a sudden winter, and everyone present shivered.

Qianye looked at the Thirteenth Young Master for the first time, his eyes filled with a bit of coldness, and said slowly: "It turns out it's you, what a coincidence. I originally wanted to go to the City Lord's Mansion to find you, but I didn't expect to meet you here.

Yes. Look, don’t I know who you are now?”

The Thirteenth Young Master wanted to say something, but suddenly a biting chill came from the bottom of his heart. His whole body stiffened for an instant and he could not utter a word. Only at this moment did he truly understand what murderous intent was.

In extreme fear, he could not move, his face was pale, and he could only watch Qianye pull out Dongyue.

"Keep someone under the sword!!" A shout came from afar, the sound shook half of the city, showing an extremely profound cultivation of the Force. At this critical moment, Liu Yuanxi finally arrived.

Qianye's expression remained unchanged, and Dongyue trembled slightly in his hand. The Thirteenth Young Master immediately let out a shrill scream and fell to the sky. There was blood between his legs, and blood gushed out like a spring.

Qianye turned around with a bright smile and said: "The person stayed."
