After everyone settled in the restaurant and waited, Xiao Chen and Lord Fentian went to buy a mansion. After some inquiries along the way, Xiao Chen learned that if he wanted to buy a mansion in Yueji City, he had to go to the City Lord's Mansion.
The vacant mansions are all under the name of the city lord's mansion.
After learning about the process of purchasing a mansion, Xiao Chen and the two walked towards the City Lord's Mansion. As the largest force in Yueji City, the City Lord's Mansion was naturally not difficult to find. It is located in the center of Yueji City and covers a huge area.
.
"Xiao Chen, from now on in Tianhe Continent, you and I will be treated as uncles and nephews." Lord Burning Sky said as he walked away.
Naturally, people's true identities cannot be exposed easily in Tianhe Continent. Who knows what the people of Tianhe Continent have towards outsiders from other continents. If Tianhe Continent is extremely xenophobic, then it is asking for trouble.
Therefore, Master Fengtian believed that the relationship between everyone was that of master and servant, and Xiao Chen was his nephew. From now on, others would call Master Fentian his lord and Xiao Chen his son.
Hearing Lord Fentian's words, Xiao Chen nodded and said that he still needs to be careful to conceal his true identity in Tianhe Continent. After all, everyone is not from this continent.
Rushing all the way to the city lord's mansion, just as Xiao Chen and the two were walking along the street, from a distance, Xiao Chen saw a group of guards in military uniforms right in front of them, surrounding an old man with gray hair.
Punching and kicking, at the same time, in front of the group of guards, there was a young man in luxurious clothes watching all this with a sneer.
It was obvious that the young man in luxurious clothes should be a child of a big family in Moon Trail City, and the group of guards were his followers. As for the old man, judging from his clothes, he should not have any status, and his cultivation level was only that of the earth.
Mirror level.
Faced with such a scene, Xiao Chen frowned slightly, but he did not take action. If he were in Tianchen Continent at this time, Xiao Chen would definitely scold him, but now, this is Tianhe Continent, and he did not know the identity of the young man.
, Secondly, Xiao Chen didn’t want to cause more trouble.
Some parts of my heart felt that more than a dozen strong young men actually beat up a dying old man. And judging from the intensity of these people's attacks, it was obvious that they had no mercy at all and were extremely cruel.
The old man who was beaten by everyone was already pale, his breath was weak, and blood was constantly spurting out from his mouth. He was obviously seriously injured.
None of the people passing by dared to stop him, probably because they were afraid of the young man's identity.
He walked past this group of people silently like other passers-by. As Xiao Chen passed by the young man, he heard the young man sneer and say.
"If an old man dares to meddle in other people's business, isn't he just a bitch? I will kill you if you kill me. How dare you go to the city lord's palace to sue me? Humph, you just don't know what to say. Beat me, hard.
of beating."
After the young man finished speaking, the beaten old man said feebly, "Wu De, you are not a human being. My granddaughter is only twelve years old. You can be so cruel. In your eyes, she is just a bitch, but
In the eyes of the old man, he is his only relative. Our grandfather and grandson depend on each other in Yueji City. How could you do such a heartless thing? I swear here today that as long as I am still alive, even if I am sued
When I get to the imperial capital, I want to seek justice, but I don’t believe that your Wu family can really cover the sky with just one hand."
"You still want to go to the imperial capital to file a petition? Old immortal, are you dreaming? Whether you can survive today depends on my face. Beat me, beat me hard, and kill this old guy."
Completely angered by the old man's words, Wu De shouted with murderous intent in his eyes.
After hearing Wu De's words, the more than ten thugs under him became even more ruthless.
Passing by Wu De, Xiao Chen also heard some clues from the brief conversation between the two. It should be that the old man's granddaughter was attracted by Wu De, and then she was forcibly possessed by Wu De. Finally, she was tortured to death by Wu De. The old man
Feeling sad and angry, he went to the city lord's palace to sue Wu De. As a result, Wu De found out about the matter, so he beat the old man in the street.
According to him, the old man's granddaughter was only twelve years old. At such an age, she could only be regarded as a little girl. But even so, Wu De actually tortured her to death.
Originally, he didn't intend to pay attention to this matter, but just when Xiao Chen was about to leave, an old man's roar came from behind him.
"Wu De, I won't let you go even if I'm a ghost, you beast, ah..."
As if he had exhausted his last breath, the roar fell. The old man seemed to have no extra strength anymore. He lay weakly on the ground and allowed the fists of more than a dozen evil slaves to hit him hard.
He trembled, blood continued to flow out of his mouth, and the look in his eyes was gradually blurring, but in the corners of the old man's eyes, there were two lines of clear tears flowing down silently.
These two lines of clear tears seem to be telling the injustice of the law of heaven and the grief and anger in the heart of the old man. The law of heaven is ruthless and treats all things as rotten dogs.
Why are people born into different grades? Why do people without identity and background get bullied? Why is it that the saying goes, the sky has eyes, but no one has ever seen the sky really open those eyes?
His breathing became weaker and weaker. At the corners of the old man's mouth, blood continued to flow and gather. At the same time, every time the old man took a breath, because there was blood in his mouth, there was a small sound of "puff", as if the bubbles were blown.
generally.
He had already passed by the young man, but at this moment, Xiao Chen stopped. Reason kept telling Xiao Chen that this matter should not be taken care of. Now everyone has not yet established a firm foothold in Tianhe Continent and Yueji City.
, should not cause trouble.
However, in the face of the old man's roar, Xiao Chen could not convince himself to sit idly by and look at Xiao Chen in silence. The Burning Lord on the side did not speak, as if everything depended on Xiao Chen. If Xiao Chen wanted to take care of it, then
He would stand firmly behind Xiao Chen and give him enough confidence, and if Xiao Chen chose to ignore it, he would not say anything more.
Silent and speechless, at the same time, the young man behind him had drawn out the long sword in his hand, slowly came to the old man, and said with a sneer.
"Old guy, keep your eyes open in the next life. There are some people you can't afford to offend. If you still want to sue me, go to hell, old guy."
As he said that, the young man thrust out his sword, and the sword light flashed. Seeing that the old man was about to die under this sword, everyone around him couldn't bear to look away, and at this critical moment, let
An unexpected scene happened.
I saw a young man in white appear out of nowhere, appeared in front of the old man in an instant, stretched out his right hand with two fingers, and clamped the young man's sword tightly with two fingers.
