Taiyi looked at Qian Duojin with a smile, and said with a chuckle: "Master Qian, I know that your Qian family is one of the largest families in Blackwater City. It has a high position and is not to be messed with!"
"Perhaps you also feel that even if the Qian family and the Zhao family go to war, they may not necessarily lose!"
"But Master Qian, I have to remind you now!"
"The old city lord is now dying, but his cultivation is still there. If the Qian family offends the old city lord at this moment, I think... he wouldn't mind dragging a few more people to be buried with him!"
Taiyi said with a smile.
When Qian Duojin heard this, he naturally understood the meaning of Taiyi's words.
Rumor has it that the old city master's internal injuries cannot be cured and he has passed away not long ago. Although he is injured, the old city master's cultivation is still there. Now when he is dying, if anyone dares to provoke him..., he is still a human being after all.
What's wrong with a person who is about to die having a few more people to support him?
Qian Duojin smiled: "How dare you! Since the old city chief is meeting Lin Bai today, I naturally don't dare to stay any longer!"
"Please!"
Qian Duojin smiled slightly and did not stop Taiyi.
Tai Yi chuckled and said, "Please, Lin Bai, guest!"
Lin Bai chuckled and said: "Let's go, Lin Ye!"
Immediately, Lin Bai took Lin Ye and followed Tai Yi away.
After Qian Duojin waited for Taiyi to leave, his expression suddenly became cold. After taking a cold look at the Tang family, he returned to the Qian family with the warriors of the Qian family, and Qian Youcai also left with him.
When Tang Jingyuan saw Qian Duojin leaving, he breathed a sigh of relief and returned to the Tang family. He explained that there were no guests in the Tang family today, and any guests who came to visit would not be seen.
Lin Bai and Tai Yi walked on the streets of Blackwater City, heading towards the city lord's palace.
Along the way, Lin Bai and Tai Yi did not speak.
Lin Bai asked at this time: "Manager Taiyi, I have something to ask you!"
Taiyi nodded and smiled: "Brother Sword Demon, don't blame me, I was helpless!"
"I admit that your identity is indeed the Zhao family and Tang family that I told you!"
"But I'm also very helpless!"
"Old city lord Zhao Wuji is a warrior of the Zhao family. He sent someone to find me and asked me to tell the Zhao family your identity. How can I not obey?"
"As I said just now, the old city lord is dying now, but his cultivation is still there. If I make him unhappy, I'm afraid he will really get angry and go on a killing spree!"
"As for the Tang family... Miss Tang Yuezhi has already guessed your identity. The head of the Tang family and Tang Yuezhi came to the fighting field to investigate your affairs and didn't ask me any more questions!"
"That old fox Tang Jingxiu, he identified you just from the look in my eyes!"
"What can I do!"
Taiyi said helplessly.
After hearing Taiyi's words, Lin Bai finally confirmed that the leak of his identity was really spread in the fighting field.
Originally, the Zhao family found Lin Bai last night. Lin Bai was a little weird at that time. Why did the Zhao family know his identity?
Lin Bai spent a night thinking hard, Ban Ye and the fat uncle probably would not betray Lin Bai, because they were not familiar with the Zhao family in the first place, and the Zhao family probably would not look at these two people!
As for Tang Yuezhi, it was naturally impossible for her to reveal Lin Bai's identity.
Then there is only one place, and that is the fighting arena.
In the martial arts arena, the only warrior who could know Lin Bai's identity was the steward of the martial arts arena, Tai Yi.
Today, Lin Bai originally wanted to leave the Tang family and go find Taiyi to ask questions, and he felt like he was launching an attack to investigate.
But before he could walk out of the Tang family's door, he was stopped by Qian Youcai.
Then Qian Duojin took action, putting Lin Bai in trouble.
Fortunately, Taiyi came forward and relieved Lin Bai's urgent need. Now Lin Bai can no longer blame Taiyi.
Moreover, Tai Yi also explained that it was the old city lord Zhao Wuji who asked him to tell the Zhao family his identity.
Facing the old city lord, although Taiyi was the steward of the fighting arena, he had to betray the old city lord's reputation.
Lin Bai asked: "Since the old city lord has asked you to inform the Zhao family of my identity, why does the old city lord still want to see me today?"
Taiyi smiled and said, "Maybe it's because you and the Zhao family haven't made peace!"
Lin Bai was stunned, frowning and saying nothing.
Taiyi whispered: "Brother Sword Demon, if my guess is correct, the old city lord is looking for you today because he probably wants you to help the Zhao family!"
"You should know that in the Dragon City Battle, whoever can capture the commander's flag will be the next person in power in Blackwater City!"
"And if every family has a strong person to help them, they will have more confidence!"
"The same is true for the fighters in the fighting arena. Many fighters are waiting for this opportunity!"
Taiyi said calmly.
"Brother Sword Demon, for the sake of getting to know you, I would like to remind you that if the price offered by the old city lord is not so excessive, you'd better not refuse the old city lord's offer!"
"After all, the old city lord is a warrior of the Zhao family. Even though he is about to die now, he is still a warrior of the Zhao family. He naturally hopes to see the Zhao family continue to be the leader of Blackwater City!"
"If you don't help the Zhao family and reject the old city lord outright... As I said just now, he is a dying man and can do anything!"
Taiyi said with a smile.
Lin Bai understood the meaning of Taiyi's words.
Lin Bai smiled and said: "Thank you for reminding me. The implication of Manager Taiyi is...the old city lord invited me to go. Is this a Hongmen Banquet?"
Taiyi smiled and said nothing.
Lin Bai said: "If I help the Zhao family, everything will be easy..."
"But if I reject the old city lord and am unwilling to help the Zhao family!"
"I'm afraid that in order to reduce the risk, the old city lord may kill me directly to prevent me from helping other families and bringing unnecessary risks to the Zhao family!"
Lin Bai said softly.
Taiyi smiled and said: "Brother Sword Demon, you are indeed very smart!"
Lin Bai smiled and said: "Steward Taiyi has made it so obvious. If I still don't understand, wouldn't I be a fool?"
Tai Yi smiled slightly: "Since Brother Sword Demon understands, that's the best."
"Let's go, the city lord's mansion is ahead."
Lin Bai and Taiyi walked side by side.
On a street in front of me, I saw a soldier wearing armor standing every ten steps, holding a long sword, his face was solemn and majestic.
Walk into this street and reach the end, where you will find the City Lord's Mansion.
Tai Yi took Lin Bai in and went directly to find Zhao Wuji.
Arriving outside a pavilion in the lake, Taiyi clasped his fists and said, "Lord City Lord, I am Taiyi, and I have been ordered to bring the sword demon Lin Bai here!"
"Thank you very much, Taiyi. I have already ordered people to prepare a reward. You can leave after you go down and receive the reward!"
"Lin Bai, come in."
A gloomy man's voice came from the pavilion in the lake.
"Yes!" Taiyi responded, turned and left.
When leaving, Tai Yi gave Lin Bai a look, signaling Lin Bai not to offend Zhao Wuji!
Lin Bai understood the idea and walked towards the Huzhong Pavilion!
