When the angry shouts came, everyone in the Xue family suddenly became frightened, and their expressions all changed.
When they walked out of Yanjing City, everything was obviously going well, but now? There are pursuers rushing towards them. This is obviously someone who deliberately released them from Yanjing City and then attacked and killed them.
Taking action in the city will inevitably attract the attention of all parties and involve other families.
Now outside the city, the Xue family is undoubtedly complaining that the sky and the sky are not responding, and the earth and the earth are not functioning properly.
"How could this happen? Could it be that... we have been plotted against again?"
Xue Lingyang turned around and looked, and was shocked to find that a large amount of smoke and dust appeared above the official road, rolling in. Looking at this posture, the pursuers were definitely not stragglers, but an extremely large team.
In Yanjing City, apart from the City Lord's Mansion, Xue Lingyang could not think of any other forces that had the ability to summon so many experts.
In terms of strength, the Xue family is still the number one family in Yanjing City. If it weren't for the city lord's palace, how could other families dare to attack them?
"It is true that they are from the City Lord's Mansion. It seems that they have been eyeing our Xue family for a long time."
Xue Ziyan gritted her teeth secretly. If there were only a few important people from the Xue family, they would have fled directly. But with so many people from the Xue family gathered here, what would happen to these people if they left?
As long as they fall into the hands of the City Lord's Mansion, Xue Ziyan believes that based on City Lord Liang's attitude towards Yan Jinghong, these people will not survive today and there will be no bones left, not even a complete corpse will be left.
"City Lord Liang, our Xue family and the City Lord's Mansion have no grievances in the past and have no enmity in recent times. What do you mean by stopping us?"
The old lady, who was riding on the dragon horse, did not run away at all. Instead, she turned her head and looked behind her coldly. She looked like a female tiger about to become furious.
As she spoke, she did not forget to glance at the mysterious man in white, with a trace of eagerness in the corner of her eye.
It is definitely not a good sign that the City Lord's Mansion is chasing him so far. At this time, the attitude of the mysterious man in white is very crucial.
If the mysterious man in white didn't take action, the old lady would definitely not be able to defeat Liang Shouheng with his strength.
But if the mysterious man in white wants to take care of this matter and stop it, then the Xue family will have a glimmer of hope.
Seemingly aware of the worries of the old lady, Xue Ziyan and others, Qin Dong also rode a dragon horse, guarding one side, and said indifferently: "Don't worry, everyone, I have promised Qin Dong, little friend, to protect your Xue family.
If you are careful, I won't let anything happen to you, you are just some clowns, just wait and see what happens."
As he said this, Qin Dong felt nervous in his heart!
There are so many people in the City Lord's Mansion chasing them here. Needless to say, it must be Yan Jinghong's handiwork, or Ye Qingyao's secret instigation.
On the surface, it was Liang Shouheng who did it himself, but secretly, there must be other people peeking in and observing what's going on here.
If Qin Dong's strength is exposed, the eight major families, as well as the former Shentu Xingyuan, will immediately show up and carry out bloody suppression on him and the Xue family, taking revenge severely.
The more he knew this, the calmer Qin Dong's face became. He knew that he must be steady, and only he could protect the Xue family.
"Hahaha! Old lady, your Xue family is the number one family in Yanjing City. How could you leave like this without even saying hello?"
Following the sound of laughter, the figures of Liang Shouheng and his son finally rushed forward, leading a group of experts from the City Lord's Mansion and appeared on the bank of the barrier lake.
As the Lord of Yanjing City, what he rides is not an ordinary dragon horse, but a third-level monster beast—the Explosive Flame Lion!
This beast is huge and extremely ferocious. Even in the Ten Thousand Demon Mountains, it is the top predator. Once it breaks out, its strength is comparable to that of a strong person in the Heavenly Soul Realm.
Counting the Explosive Lion, Liang Shouheng, and a fifth-level Heavenly Soul Realm elder in the City Lord's Mansion, at this moment, there are a total of three Heavenly Soul Realm combat forces who have chased here and blocked the Xue family.
And that Heavenly Soul Realm elder, named Wen Jingzhi, was also a figure as famous as Old Taijun back then. His strength was unpredictable and not as simple as it seemed on the surface.
In addition, there are a large number of soldiers in the city lord's palace, wearing strong armor and fully armed. They each form a small group, forming powerful battle formations one after another. They gather here to prevent explosions.
, if it were to use its hands, I am afraid that it would also explode, far exceeding the same level, and be able to threaten the strong people in the Heavenly Soul Realm.
When the City Lord's Mansion took action, it was indeed different. Even though their lineup was not as powerful as Yan Jinghong and others, the level of danger increased exponentially, causing everyone in the Xue family to feel completely at the bottom of their hearts.
"City Lord Liang, whether our Xue family will stay in Yanjing City is an internal matter within our family and has nothing to do with the City Lord's Mansion. What do you mean by calling so many experts here?"
After receiving Qin Dong's promise, the old lady secretly affirmed in her heart, as if she had taken a reassurance pill and gained some confidence. In order to prevent Liang Shouheng from seeing clearly the truth, she simply became tough.
"Indeed! Whether the Xue family leaves has nothing to do with our city lord's palace. However, your Xue family's son-in-law Qin Dong is now a wanted criminal in the empire. He is being wanted by the patrol department and is being hunted by eight major families. If so,
In terms of status, your Xue family can be considered a 'criminal clan'."
Liang Shouheng is the city lord. How can he be caught by the old lady in this kind of word game? He opened his mouth and said: "Since you are a sinner, you must stay in Yanjing City and are not allowed to leave at will. Otherwise, I, the city lord, will have to personally
Take action, escort everyone, and forcefully return to the city!"
"What? You want to personally take action and escort us back?"
The old lady's face changed and she said angrily: "Why didn't you tell us when we were leaving the city just now? We had already reached here before suddenly saying that you wanted to take us back or escort us back to the city. Could it be that you thought we were the Xue family?"
Is everyone a sinner?"
"City Lord Liang, you are the Lord of a city after all, how come you act so domineeringly? Aren't you afraid that we will take this matter to the Inspection Department and sue you for being a common man who knows the law and breaks it?"
Xue Ziyan was so smart that she did not go back and forth with Liang Shouheng over trivial matters, but grasped the key points and gritted her teeth to warn.
"Hehe... bring this matter to the Patrol Department? Then you must have this opportunity."
Liang Shouheng's expression became stern, and his tone gradually became colder. If the person speaking was not his precious son, the woman he liked, he would have punished her long ago.
A mere junior dares to talk to me like this. Isn't this looking for death?
"Zi Yan, what happened today is irreversible. Otherwise... if you come to me, as long as your Xue family obediently hands over all resources and people, let our city lord's palace handle it, I promise
, I will never hurt your life, and I will take good care of you and ensure your safety..."
Liang Jingyi licked his lips, greed surging in his eyes, staring at Xue Ziyan closely, and softly dissuaded him.
It was as if what he did was not harming Xue Ziyan, but he was thinking about Beauty Xue wholeheartedly.
"Let our Xue family hand over all resources? Let the city lord's palace handle it? Don't even think about it!"
Xue Ziyan is not a child, so how can she not know what kind of crooked ideas Liang Jingyi has? Just from the look in this guy's eyes, she has already seen that this guy will never let her go.
"Don't even think about it? Ziyan, why are the Xue family forced to this point? Don't you still understand why? Having offended the Seventh Prince and the eight major families, the Xue family has no way out, except to let us deal with it.
Otherwise, there is no other choice."
Liang Jingyi said with a sad look on his face, he had spent a lot of effort to save Xue Ziyan from Yan Jinghong, and naturally he didn't want to see the snow beauty resisting.
In his opinion, the Xue family members in front of him were already a pile of dead bodies, and it was impossible for anyone except Xue Ziyan to survive.
"That's enough! Liang Jingyi, in short, no matter what you say, our Xue family will not be captured without mercy. If you want to take action, you can come up and give it a try."
Xue Ziyan's pretty eyes turned cold. If she just handed over the resources of the Xue family and spent money to eliminate the disaster, she might still consider it. But if she handed over these clan members and let the city lord's palace handle it, it would be absolutely impossible for her to agree to this matter.
Even if you hand over any clan member, that won't work!
