Su Yi waved his hand and threw the old man in black robe out.
Then, he looked at Lie Leng, Zhou Bing and other guards, and said, "What about you, do you still plan to continue being used as a gun?"
Lie Leng was silent.
Zhou Bing gritted his teeth and said: "We act impartially and follow the rules in everything. How can it be as bad as you said!"
Su Yi chuckled, "Although rules are good, when people are unreliable, they will use the rules to seek their own selfish interests."
Su Yi shook his head and walked away.
"stop!"
Zhou Bing drank loudly.
But Su Yi turned a deaf ear and left alone, ignoring it directly.
This made Zhou Bing angry, with murderous intent on his brows, "Sir Lie Leng, if you really want this person to leave in such a big way, wouldn't the rules in the city be just like decoration?"
Lie Leng said expressionlessly: "Since you are so anxious, you can go and get the person yourself!"
After saying that, Lie Leng also turned around and left.
Zhou Bing was stunned, his expression changing.
In the nearby area, many strong men who were watching couldn't help laughing.
After this incident, everyone realized that what Su Yi said was true. Although the rules in the starting city were good, if the guards were unreliable, public weapons would be used for personal use!
"Why are you laughing? It's all gone!"
Zhou Bing was ashamed and angry, and shouted harshly.
Soon, he also hurriedly left with other guards.
The failure to capture Su Yi this time not only lost the face of the guards, but also had an impact on the rules and order in the city!
They must return as soon as possible.
…
"I really didn't expect that he could hold back and not commit murder."
"Don't worry, he has already entered the starting city. Without the support of He Bo this time, he is destined to be doomed!"
Far away, a group of people were talking in low voices.
If Su Yi were here, he would definitely be able to recognize that these are the high-ranking gods in the major camps of God's Domain!
When we were in the Ancient God Ridge, these high-ranking gods all appeared and worked beside those god masters.
"Those men who dominate the restricted area have also entered the starting city. We can't let those guys get there first."
"Finally, don't act rashly. No matter who you are, you need to abide by the rules of the starting city, otherwise, even us will suffer."
"This matter is indeed very careless. However, after what happened, the three chief priests guarding this city are destined not to spare Su Yi!"
"Kill someone with a borrowed knife?"
"good!"
During the conversation, these superior gods left one after another.
…
Starting city.
The starting point of the Road to the Ancient Gods.
In the starting city, in addition to a group of guards, there are also three chief priests guarding the city.
The chief priest, Fa Tianming, is the lord of the starting city.
The second chief priest, Qin Wenxiao, was in charge of the criminal law of the starting city.
The three chief priests, Liexingqu, are responsible for maintaining the rules and order in the city.
The three chief priests each come from the top ancient clans on the road to the ancient gods.
Among them, Fa Tianming comes from the ancient "Legal family" and has the highest status and the most prominent status.
At this time, there is an ancient mansion located in the center of the starting city.
This is the City Lord’s Mansion!
"After endless years, the long-dusted road to the ancient gods has been reopened. Outsiders who do not belong to our era will gradually enter the starting city in the next period of time."
"According to the rules, what we have to do is to issue them identity plaques and send them to different trials."
City Lord Fa Tianming clasped his hands behind his back, stood in the City Lord's Hall, and spoke softly, his voice carried through the hall.
He wears a high hat and ancient clothes, and his face is as cold as a rock. "In addition, he is also responsible for maintaining the rules and order in the city. It cannot be violated by others. Even if the gods make mistakes, they must be severely punished according to the rules!"
"yes!"
An old man in a cloth robe respectfully agreed.
"By the way, is Su Yi here?"
Fa Tianming suddenly asked.
The Road to the Ancient Gods has been restarted for three days, and many outsiders have entered the starting city, including some high-ranking gods with terrifying power.
Su Yi, who was in charge of the Era Fire, had already attracted Fa Tianming's attention.
"No news yet."
Just as the old man opened his mouth to answer, a guard from the City Lord's Mansion hurried into the main hall and reported:
"Lord City Lord, just now, Su Yi has arrived at the Starting City!"
Fa Tianming was refreshed and his eyes were filled with strange color, "Really? Where is this person now?"
The guard did not dare to hide anything and told him one by one about the conflict that had just occurred.
Including what Su Yi said during the confrontation with Lie Leng, Zhou Bing and others, as well as all the details of Su Yi's suppression of the black-robed old man, were all told.
After listening, Fa Tianming frowned and fell silent.
"Lie Leng is a junior member of the clan of the third chief priest, but under the order of the second chief priest, he went to find Su Yi and almost had a conflict?"
After a while, Fa Tianming snorted coldly, "Fortunately, Lie Leng didn't take action in the end. Otherwise, if something happened to him, how could the three chief priests just let it go?"
The old man in cloth robe thought thoughtfully, "What do you mean, sir, is Lie Leng being used as a weapon by the second chief priest?"
"Do you even need to ask?"
Fa Tianming sighed softly, "In the previous conflict, if Lie Leng had not held back and chose to take action, the three chief priests would have been dragged into the water."
"Similarly, if Su Yi can't hold back and fights, it will be equivalent to breaking the rules of the city and will be regarded as a sinner!"
"It seems like a simple trick, but if you are not careful, it will lead to unpredictable consequences."
After a pause, Fa Tianming said with a gloomy face, "There are also gods from outsiders who are also involved in this matter, using a middle god as a chess piece in an attempt to force Su Yi to fight. It can be said that they have sinister intentions.
!”
Immediately, he sighed, "I also know what the two chief priests are thinking, and I also know that as long as the person in charge of the Era Fire appears, it will inevitably cause some troubles, but I didn't expect that they would be so impatient.
When Su Yi first arrived, he set up such a murderous plot with sinister intentions."
There was disgust and displeasure in his voice.
The old man in cloth robe said: "Sir, should we do something?"
Fa Tianming fell silent.
He raised his eyes and looked directly above the hall.
There was originally a bright mirror hanging there, called the "Minghao Divine Mirror".
It means "to see clearly everything".
It is also the first artifact in the starting city.
With this treasure, it can intimidate anyone in the city. Anyone who breaks the rules will be seen through the mirror.
It's a pity that this wonderful artifact was taken away a long time ago.
After a long time, Fa Tianming seemed to make a decision and said: "The storm is coming, and the undercurrent is surging. No matter what we do, we can't stop it. In this case, let's first see how much noise this storm will cause.
, it’s not too late to make a decision.”
"Yes!" The old man in cloth robe accepted the order.
At this time, another guard came to report: "Sir, an outsider who claims to be a subordinate of the Taoist Qianjie has come to pay his respects."
Taoist Qianjie! The master of the Forbidden Demon Island, one of the eight restricted areas in the Era!
"not see."
Fa Tianming refused, "Next, no matter who comes to visit, just say that I have encountered problems in my practice recently and cannot entertain guests. Just refuse them all."
"yes!"
The guard took the order and left.
The old man in cloth robe couldn't help but said: "Sir, if the second and third chief priests come to pay homage, they won't see you either?"
Fa Tianming's eyes were deep and he said: "When they are really forced to come to see me, it means that this storm has come to an end. At that time... I can either see them or not see them.
, everything depends on the situation at that time, and then we make a decision."
The old man in cloth robe nodded and said: "Stay out of the situation, look at the wind and rain indifferently, and act according to the circumstances. This is the safest move, sir."
"safe?"
Fa Tianming laughed at himself, "I am the chief priest and the lord of the starting city, but now I can only watch from the sidelines. How... sad!"
…
at the same time.
In a simple old mansion.
Under a bare plum tree, the three chief priests Lie Xingqu held a banana fan in his hand and sat on a bamboo chair.
He has an elegant appearance, like a scholar.
"This time your concession may seem embarrassing, but it is definitely wise and even witty."
Lie Xingqu gently waved the banana fan and said happily, "Very good."
On one side, Lie Leng, who was feeling uneasy in his heart, couldn't help but be startled, "Uncle, don't you blame me?"
"You didn't make any mistakes. You were just used by that old guy, the second officiant. Why should I blame you?"
Liexing said, "What's more, you don't understand what it means for Su Yi to be able to take charge of the Era Fire. Although this time it almost led to a big mistake, fortunately, he was able to rein in the situation at the last moment. That's enough."
Lie Leng couldn't help but said: "Uncle, why did the second chief priest use me to deal with Su Yi?"
"Of course they want to drag me down so that I have to stand in the same camp as him."
Liexing said, "After all, if something happens to you, whether it's life or death, I can't just stand by and watch, right? And Su Yiruo fought hard at that time, even if he was not at fault, in order to maintain the rules and order in the city, he must be severely punished
.”
"And this is exactly what the second chief priest wants to see."
After listening to this, I felt chills running down my spine.
He really didn't expect that the water behind it was so deep!
Lie Leng said with a gloomy face: "If the second chief priest does this, the chief priest will not care?"
Being used like this by the second chief priest made him feel quite angry.
"The chief priest..."
Lie Xingqu sighed, shook his head and said, "Although he is the city lord, he is no different from a tiger that has had its teeth pulled out. If he really intervenes, not only will he not be able to change anything, but he will be in trouble with the second chief priest and himself.
It’s boring.”
Lie Leng said: "Is the reason why the chief priest is so depressed is related to the fact that the 'Minghao Divine Mirror' was taken away?"
Lie Xingqu nodded, "It does have something to do with this treasure, but it also has something to do with the backers behind the second chief priest. No matter how powerful the Legalists are, they are far less powerful than before."
Speaking of this, Lie Xingqu thought for a moment and said, "You and I will go for a walk in the city later."
"What is uncle going to do?"
"Go and meet that Su Yi."
"What are you doing seeing him?"
Lie Xingqu stood up from the bamboo chair and said: "The first is to express my position, and the second is to help you resolve the misunderstanding. I don't want to take the blame for you and be regarded as a potential enemy by Su Yi."
Lie Leng was immediately embarrassed and embarrassed inside.
