At the gate of the city, forty or fifty guards inside and outside drew their swords at each other, surrounding Jiang Ning. Among them, there were many guards on the city tower holding iron-tied crossbows.
If there was any disagreement, Jiang Ning would be shot and killed.
Jiang Ning's face turned dark.
He knew he was being played.
The young man in front of him had recognized himself early on. He was tearing off those clothes and horses just to amuse himself.
The sinister young man teased: "Jiang Ning, if you don't take the road from heaven, there is no way to go underground. You can't blame others. I advise you not to resist now, otherwise..."
Sanjiang City is one of the main cities in Zhuozhou. Of course, Zheng Qiuhe will not be the only one in the Yangshen realm.
There are many powerful and powerful people hiding in invisible corners.
The young man knew that Jiang Ning's cultivation level was not low. In order to avoid unnecessary casualties and his own safety, he hoped that Jiang Ning would be wiser and not act rashly.
Jiang Ning said nothing.
In fact, he didn't want to antagonize Sanjiang City unless he had to.
"Okay, I won't move, but I have a condition. I want to see City Lord Zheng." After thinking about it, Jiang Ning let go of the horse's rein, indicating that he had no intention of breaking out of the encirclement.
Originally, I didn't want to alarm Zheng Qiuhe, but now it seems that if I want to leave Sanjiang City without fighting, I have to go and meet the Lord Zheng.
The sinister young man sneered and said: "Who do you think you are? You can see the city lord whenever you want? I advise you to follow me to the dungeon now and wait for your punishment."
Jiang Ning frowned.
In any case, he is also in the Nascent Soul Realm, and he, a minor cultivator in the Fengchu Realm, is a bit too arrogant in front of him.
"I said, I want to see the city lord." Jiang Ning's tone was a little stiffer.
He was a little angry.
However, the young man also seemed to have a donkey temper. Seeing that he dared to be tough with him, he immediately got excited and said: "Come here, get this traitor!"
"I want to see how capable you are of committing crimes in Sanjiang City!"
The surrounding guards obeyed the order and slashed at Jiang Ning with their swords.
Jiang Ning snorted coldly, and used his thunder escape technique to move through the crowd like a ghost, knocking out the guards one by one.
Within a few breaths, none of the guards surrounding him could stand.
When the young man saw this, he was not confused at all. He retreated to the city gate and yelled: "Fire the arrow!"
On the city wall, people holding iron-mounted crossbows obeyed orders one after another.
For a moment, the sky was filled with rain of arrows.
Jiang Ning stirred up his spiritual energy and formed a spiritual energy barrier three inches in front of him, blocking the arrows from the sky.
The lethality of the Iron Tire Crossbow is impressive, but for Nascent Soul Realm powerhouses, it is obviously not enough.
The densely packed arrows are no different from raindrops.
After blocking a round of attacks, Jiang Ning took advantage of them to fill the gap between arrows, exerted force with his feet, and appeared in front of the sinister young man with a series of sonic booms.
The sinister young man wanted to block it, but he couldn't.
Whether it was speed or strength, he and Jiang Ning were not on the same level. If Jiang Ning wanted to kill him, it would be as easy as crushing an ant.
Without any surprise, Jiang Ning grabbed his neck and lifted him up from the ground.
"Tell me, who ordered you to kill me?" Jiang Ning asked.
Jiang Ning became suspicious when the other party refused to let him see the city lord.
Even if he was causing trouble, he was still the powerful person in charge of Qingling Academy. How could a powerful Nascent Soul Realm person be shot dead on the order of the city gate guard without even being able to see the city lord in front of him?
City gate guard, do you have such courage?
There must be something fishy here!
The sinister young man felt the hands around his neck tightening, his face turned red, and he struggled: "Jiang Ning, do you know who I am? If you kill me, you won't be able to get out of Sanjiang City!"
Although he was shouting loudly, he was actually not afraid at all.
He believed that as long as Jiang Ning wanted to live, he would definitely not kill him!
Jiang Ning was indeed interested.
He wanted to see who the young man was and who was behind him!
"I don't know, you might as well tell me." Jiang Ning asked.
When the two of them were in a stalemate, the guards on the city tower also rushed down. There were about a hundred people in the large area.
Among them, a short man with a dark round face squeezed out and said nervously: "Traitor, you know what you are doing. If you don't let Master Xiao Qin go quickly, maybe you can still survive!"
"If not, you will be killed on the spot today!"
Jiang Ning was indifferent. He looked at the young man and said, "Master Xiao Qin, it seems that you have some relationship with the deputy city lord Qin Anming?"
He asked about it when he came to Sanjiang City.
There are two city lords in the giant city, one is the chief and the other is the deputy city lord. Qin Anming, the deputy city lord, is in the early stage of Yang Shen. He has a son named Qin Zheng.
Come to think of it, it's the young man in front of you.
Now, things get interesting.
Qin Zheng wanted to kill a powerful Nascent Soul man. Is it because of his dandy personality or because there is a deeper meaning behind it... Jiang Ning became interested and wanted to wait and see what happened.
The short man with a dark round face said: "Since you have guessed it, why don't you let Master Xiao Qin go? City Lord Qin only has such a son. If even one of your hairs falls off, even your ten heads are not enough to chop him off!"
Qin Zheng said nothing, sarcasm flashed in his eyes.
He could already imagine what Jiang Ning would do next, and what he had to do was to pay him back double what he had done to him.
Jiang Ning looked at him carefully and did not let go.
"In this way, let's keep it simple. You prepare a flying star boat for me. I will get on it and I will naturally put your Lord Xiao Qin back safe and sound."
Jiang Ning looked at Fatty Hei and said, "What do you think?"
Since he has such a precious baby in his hands, it doesn't really matter whether he sees City Lord Zheng or not.
Qin Zheng's eyes widened, shocked and angry.
He didn't expect Jiang Ning to be so bold, knowing his identity, and having the audacity to take him as a hostage.
"Jiang Ning, do you think that... Nascent Soul is invincible... You are acting in the opposite direction... Do you know... Do you know how many people... wish... you can't get rid of... and then... hurry up!"
Qin Zheng felt like he was suffocating, but he couldn't help but want to scold Jiang Ning to vent his anger.
Jiang Ning didn't say anything.
However, the strength of the hand that strangled his neck became a little stronger, completely blocking Qin Zheng's throat.
The fat black man exclaimed when he saw this.
Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Then why don't you get ready quickly?"
There were beads of sweat on the fat black man's forehead.
He is just a city defense official, and the Ghost Ax Divine Sect is behind Feixingzhou's business. He can arrange whatever he wants.
But if you can delay the time until the people you send notify the deputy city lord, that's not bad, but why hasn't the city lord come yet...
Seeing that Qin Zheng was already rolling his eyes, the fat man didn't dare to hesitate and immediately agreed: "Okay, I promise you, as long as you don't hurt Mr. Xiao Qin, I will immediately arrange for a flying star boat to take you away."
"Come on, wouldn't it be fine if you had done this earlier?" Jiang Ning thought for a moment and agreed.
He put Qin Zheng down, used a simple formation to ban his cultivation, gagged his mouth and threw it to the ground, while he sat on Qin Zheng in front of all the guards.
Qin Zheng's little face had not calmed down yet, and instantly became angry and the color of pig's liver again.
What happened today was a great shame and humiliation for him!
After a while, Jiang Ning saw that there was still no news. He looked up and saw the fat black man walking back and forth in the distance, looking agitated.
As for Qin Zheng, he was still squirming like a maggot under his buttocks.
Seeing how hard he was struggling, Jiang Ning asked curiously: "Does your father have an illegitimate child? Otherwise, your biological son has been in my hands for so long, why doesn't he show up yet?"
