The wealthy middle-aged man in mid-air is surprisingly the Lord of Canglan City - Wu Anlan!
The news of the Teng family's battle had already spread throughout the city. As the city lord, how could Wu Anlan not know about it? So at the last moment, he finally arrived in time.
At the same time, the pegasus under him is not a mortal species, but a "Snow-winged Pegasus"!
This beast is a third-level flying monster, which is extremely rare. In the huge Canglan City, only the city lord's palace has one. Wu Anlan rode it to stop the battle, obviously unwilling to let outsiders,
Suppress the people in their own city, that is, the local forces.
Wu Anlan did not deny that the Teng family was indeed not a good person, but they were still a local force anyway. If they were suppressed by a rogue cultivator who came out of nowhere and were beaten to the point where they knelt down and begged for mercy, what would happen to them in Canglan City?
Aren’t you losing all face?
"It's actually the city lord who came in person?"
When they found out that Wu Anlan had arrived in person, the faces of the people around him all showed signs of fear and fear. Only Teng Shouyuan looked happy, knowing that his savior had come and that he could save his life.
.
So what if he loses? After the city lord comes, the result will still be the same?
The guy named 'Ling Xiao' in front of me, no matter how arrogant, arrogant, and arrogant he is, he would not dare to kill people in public in front of the Lord of the City, just kill himself!
"It turns out to be Lord Wu City!"
Qin Dong raised his eyebrows, feeling that something was a little tricky. If he had known that something would happen again, he should have taken action and killed Teng Shouyuan.
Now, if Teng Shouyuan does not die and he leaves Canglan City, he will indeed not be threatened. But what about Old Man Tie and Xiao Qiuning? What should they do?
In a short period of time, there may be no problem, but as time goes by, I'm afraid I don't even know how the two of them died...
If Teng Shouyuan is left behind, the troubles will surely be endless and become even more troublesome...
As long as conditions permit, Qin Dong will never tolerate this kind of thing happening and let it become a fact.
But the difficulty lies in how to do it under Wu Anlan's nose, or to get rid of Teng Shouyuan. After all, after this, Qin Dong will have to leave through the city lord's palace and use the teleportation array.
"Lord City Lord!"
Seeing Lord Wu City, Teng Shouyuan seemed to have grasped the last straw to save his life. He pointed at Qin Dong and shouted: "This thief came out of nowhere. When he was at the dock outside the city, he
They slaughtered us, the head of the Teng family, and a bunch of little guys, and now, they have pushed me to this point, and I also asked the city lord's palace to make the decision for our Teng family and kill Xiaoxiao to set the record straight."
boom!
As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in uproar!
No one thought that in order to protect himself, the dignified ancestor of the Teng family would be so shameless that he would paint black things as white and pour all the dirty water on Qin Dong.
The reason why this matter has developed so far, not to mention the surrounding neighbors, even the eight-year-old child can see that it was the Teng family who failed to rob the house by force and was killed by others, and ended up in this situation.
But when it comes to Teng Shouyuan, the situation has completely changed. It seems that the Teng family is the victim, and Qin Dong, who enforces justice, has become an evil heretic and needs to be killed to set the record straight.
These remarks not only refreshed everyone's outlook, but also made everyone understand a truth.
That is:
When a person becomes shameless, there is indeed no lower limit!
"oh?"
Wu Anlan was high in the air. After hearing these words, he did not rush to take action. Instead, he narrowed his eyes, looked at Qin Dong and the others, and asked coldly: "Your Excellency, your identity, before I set off, the city lord
, I have known it for a long time, but I wonder if you have any argument against your accusation against the ancestor of the Teng family? If you have nothing to say, then you, an unknown casual cultivator, went to Canglan City to fight and commit evil, which is indeed a bit too far!"
As soon as the words fell, a murderous aura was released from Wu Anlan, as if a law enforcer who was above justice wanted to punish Qin Dong.
At the same time, when the surrounding soldiers heard this, they all pointed their swords at Qin Dong and the three of them. As long as the Lord of the City gave the order, they would work together to kill these three people!
Judging from the situation, the scene in front of him at this time is indeed extremely unfavorable to Qin Dong.
However, from the words of the city lord, Qin Dong felt something different in his heart, and felt that the situation in front of him still had a lot to do!
In a word, if Wu Anlan's appearance was indeed to safeguard the local power in Canglan City and protect the Teng family, then when he appeared, he would not ask questions, but would directly take action.
He is the lord of a city, and if he wants to kill a casual cultivator, why does he need so much nonsense?
The situation in front of him seemed to be full of crises and murderous intentions were revealed, but Qin Dong understood other meanings from Wu Anlan's words.
Smiling, Qin Dong did not panic, but said slowly and calmly: "Wu City Lord, you are the lord of this city. What you follow should not be human relations, but the laws of the empire. I don't know if I think what I say is true.
?”
As soon as he opened his mouth, Qin Dong brought out the laws of the Qianlong Empire, just to muddy the water, so that Wu Anlan had to be wary of the opinions of the public and the laws of the empire, so that he could fish in troubled waters.
as expected!
Upon hearing that Qin Dong brought out the laws of the Qianlong Empire, Wu Anlan frowned and was a little at a loss as to how to proceed.
The Qianlong Empire values laws and governs the world with laws and precepts. If even Wu Anlan, the city lord, does not follow the laws, wouldn't it be chaos?
Once this matter comes out, maybe he can temporarily save the Teng family, but from now on, it will be difficult for him to keep his position as the city leader.
There are countless strong men and masters in the Qianlong Empire, so how can they allow a person who does not follow the law to serve as the lord of a city? If things go on like this, cities will follow suit, and the control power of each city in the empire will also increase.
It is greatly reduced. This kind of thing is definitely not what the big guys in the center want to see.
Therefore, although Wu Anlan was quite angry with Qin Dong, an outsider, on the surface, he could not express it openly, so he could only say patiently: "Your Excellency killed everyone in the Teng family, blood spattered five steps, but he opened his mouth and shut up.
What do you mean when you mention the laws of the empire? Could it be that you know the law and break it, and remind this city lord that you three will be punished on the spot?"
"No, no."
Qin Dong raised his fist in the air and explained: "Chengdu Wu only listened to my words, but didn't know the whole story. There are three reasons why I took action to kill many villains of the Teng family!"
"First, the Teng family has poor discipline, indulges their children, invades and robs docks, and treats the common people as nothing but grass. They will kill and take away everything they want. This is a major crime."
"Secondly, the Teng family captured Old Man Tie, abandoned his limbs, and used this as a threat. They wanted to kill people to establish their power and declare that the Teng family's position cannot be shaken. Every piece of evidence is outrageous!"
"Thirdly, the Teng family knew the law and violated the law, harmed the people, and took human life lightly! This has triggered the imperial criminal law, treating the city lord's palace and the empire's express orders as if they were nothing. Such criminals are simply wrathful, and everyone can punish them! I will take action against the Teng family
, it seems ruthless, but in fact it is just to enforce the law on behalf of the city lord's palace and maintain the laws of the empire!!!"
Mentioning these three major reasons, Qin Dong spoke with tears and emotion, as if he was the biggest victim and was retaliating against the perpetrators.
Not only that, his words are also quite sophisticated and can stand up to scrutiny.
As long as Wu Anlan is a smart person and sends someone to investigate, he will immediately know that what Qin Dong said is by no means just nonsense. Without exception, it is all facts and evidence.
"Ah, you damn little thief, you are on the verge of death, yet you still dare to make false accusations against our Teng family!"
A second ago, Teng Shouyuan thought that his life was saved. After listening to Qin Dong's words, he was immediately furious. The three corpse gods were furious and shouted hurriedly: "Lord City Lord, this is definitely a false accusation! A true false accusation.
!He is deliberately slandering our Teng family..."
