After Zhou Tian was tied up, he was immediately taken back to the city lord's mansion by the city lord.
The second elder followed closely behind.
But the felon in the cell was still lying in the cell, motionless. Several female guards picked him up together and managed to hold him back with difficulty.
Along the way, Zhou Tian wanted to talk but could not see the shadow of the city lord. He must have gone back to his hometown first. In the early morning, the city of Ban was still as quiet as ever, but he had no place to talk about his grievances. He was stunned by several female guards.
He was brought abruptly to the gate of the city lord's mansion.
The second elder looked at Zhou Tian, not because he was worried that he would tell the truth, but because he looked at his whole body in surprise. He still couldn't believe what had just happened in Tielao Pass. He actually crossed two realms and beat the felon directly.
of unconsciousness.
Zhou Tian looked at the admiring eyes of the second elder and said quickly: "Second elder, second elder? You can prove it to me! I have no idea of breaking into the iron prison and letting the felons go.
If you are unfamiliar with the city, how can you know the location of Tielao Pass?"
But when the second elder thought about the little princess in prison, he walked in without saying a word.
"It's better to leave quickly. If you have the ability to prove your innocence, the city lord will not wrongly accuse you." After that, the second elder hurried in.
After Zhou Tian heard this, he felt very complicated. Although everything could be explained clearly, if there was any evidence, he was nowhere to be found. The incident happened so suddenly that he never thought that it would turn out like this.
After entering the palace of the city lord, I came to the main hall and saw that the city lord was very angry and fierce in his seat. Even though she was a woman, she was still as angry as a man.
What's more, not all men can recover from the consequences of an angry woman.
Zhou Tian knew what he meant, so after seeing the city lord, he immediately shouted loudly: "City Lord, I was wronged. How dare I do anything to rob a prisoner? I just..."
When Zhou Tiangang was about to continue speaking, the second elder suddenly stepped forward and bowed and said: "Zhou Tianmu is lawless. Knowing that we have masters of Qi cultivation imprisoned in our iron prison, he came in without authorization and wanted to kidnap the felons. He also injured many prisoners, and even some
The prisoners died on the spot. These are well-documented and justified. Please let the city lord make a decision!"
Zhou Tian's eyes suddenly went blank. He didn't expect that the second elder suddenly betrayed him. This was a trap set for him. Zhou Tian had never encountered such a thing. Although being wronged often happened, but now that he was in Xihuan, he couldn't do it at all.
There was no place to complain, so he sternly rebuked: "Well, you second elder, I, Zhou Tian, was too gullible with you and fell into the trap of you and the little princess. I regret that I should not have promised you to apologize to the little princess!
"
"I just don't want to delay my future schedule and share my energy because of these trivial matters, but I didn't expect you and the little princess to be so insidious and vicious!"
"enough!"
The city lord shouted loudly, then stood up from his seat, looked at Zhou Tian with extremely fierce eyes and said angrily: "When you came to me and asked for a pass to the ghost market, I resisted everyone's opinions and even beat me.
My daughter has been slapped three times and sent to prison to reflect on her mistakes. Are you still not satisfied and insist on turning my city of demons upside down?"
"Thank you for trusting you so much..."
After saying that, the city lord rolled up his sleeves and sat back, and asked angrily: "Second Elder, is there any prisoner who has escaped from the Iron Prison at this time? I don't want that felon to escape. Do you know that felon?"
But it took so much power from our Demon City and so many people to die to imprison him here, there must not be any mistakes!"
After hearing this, the second elder quickly continued: "Don't worry, the felon has been knocked unconscious by Zhou Tian and must have been sent back to the cell now. In addition, this time it was entirely my fault that I believed Zhou Tian's bewitching words without authorization.
, I almost made such a big mistake, please punish me!"
Zhou Tian was startled when he saw his hypocritical look, and thought to himself: When he entered the cell, he whispered to the little princess, maybe it was for this conspiracy, and later he asked me and the prisoners on the first floor of the iron prison to
After a beating, even if the prisoner knew what they both did, he would not come forward to testify. First of all, the prisoner's words are not credible at all. Secondly, after I beat him like that, who would come forward to say something fair.
The two female guards wanted to get the key to open the door by themselves, but they didn't expect that it would be them again in the end. The steps were so intertwined that even if they had ten mouths, they still couldn't explain it clearly.
He looked at the tumbling lips of the second elder, and his teeth itched with hatred: "Second Elder! I didn't expect that you are so old and behave so inappropriately. You really dare to let the people of the City of Demon call you the second elder.
It’s so sad to be disrespectful to the elderly!”
Zhou Tian didn't want to defend himself anymore. He knew that the second elder and the young princess wanted to treat this matter as a death case.
Even so, Zhou Tian simply broke the jar and insulted the second elder.
But what made the city lord find something strange was that the scolded second elder didn't say anything, and even had some ashamed expressions and demeanor. This was not like the usual unruly second elder.
The city lord stood up again with some doubts, walked among them, glanced at Zhou Tian who was tied up behind his back, and then looked at the second elder: "Second elder? What do you have to say? Why can't I see it in your eyes?"
Regret?"
The second elder thought for a moment and was about to speak when another person walked out of the main hall. He was wearing a black robe and a gray cloak. His appearance was somewhat similar to the second elder, but he was slightly younger than the second elder.
"Old Xue! You have really done a good deed. If you dote on the little princess so much, sooner or later it will spoil the big thing!"
This person's steps are very steady, and his voice has a hint of femaleness, which is several times better than the second elder's voice.
Zhou Tian slowly turned his head and looked at the man's square cheeks, which looked very tough.
"Great Elder? You? Why are you back?"
The city lord said casually, and Zhou Tian just knew that this person was the great elder.
"If I don't come back, I'm afraid this City of Demons will be turned upside down by Old Xue and the little princess!" The first elder looked at the second elder and said angrily: "Now Haotian Pavilion and Tianjian Sect are competing, and Haotian Pavilion is competing with Tianjian Sect.
Ancestor Tian is about to return to Xihuan, can't you ask the city lord to let the city of Demon be quiet for a while?"
The first elder said sincerely, but the second elder was unmoved. Instead, he cursed: "Are you right? All day long, the dragon has been seen without seeing its tail. All day long, it has ignored the city of demons. The city lord only has nothing to do with it.
The little princess is left, how can I bring shame to the little princess!"
"It's okay if you don't speak from my side, why are you so sarcastic about me!"
The great elder didn't bother to argue with him. He looked sideways at Zhou Tian and narrowed his eyes: "This person is not a good person either. There have been a lot of troubles in Xihuan in the past few days. Xuantian Sect is now fighting with Hao in Xihuan.
Tiange blatantly colluded, but even though he said he was going to investigate, in fact, instead of taking any action after entering Xuantian Sect, he came out safe and sound!"
"City Lord, these two people are the scourge of Xihuan. It's okay to say that the second elder just did some wrong things, but he is still a member of our city, but this week, he asked the city lord to expel him from the city.
, to avoid getting into trouble!"
Zhou Tian originally thought that the great elder would say something fair, but he didn't expect that he was also scolding him. He tilted his head and looked at the great elder and muttered to himself: "The elders of this city are really more difficult to deal with..."
