When the city lord arrived, every move he made was full of majesty.
"City Lord, you are finally here. If you don't come again, this little beast will rebel."
Xiao Long, the eldest elder of the Xiao family, looked excited at this moment, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw when he was about to drown.
Na Luo Fengtian walked to Zhou Yuan step by step.
He glanced at the corpses on the ground and frowned slightly.
"Boy, whose family do you belong to? How dare you kill people under the eyes of this city lord?"
Luo Fengtian glared at Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan bowed slightly and said, "City Lord, I am Zhou Yuan of the Zhou family."
Hearing this, Luo Fengtian showed a look of surprise.
As the lord of Tianluo City, he has seen everything that happened to the Zhou family these days.
"My city lord's palace is dedicated to the royal family of Tianyun Kingdom to maintain peace. You are committing crimes under my feet at such a young age. Do you think this city lord takes your eyes off you?"
After hearing this, Zhou Yuan also felt a surge of anger in his heart.
"City Lord Luo, are you going to protect the Xiao family today?"
"How dare you. The city lord represents justice. How dare you talk to the city lord like that?" A soldier next to him immediately scolded Zhou Yuan.
"Justice?" Zhou Yuan snorted coldly and said without fear: "When the Bai family burned, killed and looted my Zhou family's shop, where was your city lord's palace? Where was your so-called justice?"
"When the Xiao family and the Jiang family secretly persecute me, and also persecute my Zhou family members, where is your justice?"
"My Zhou family is a citizen of Tianluo City. We have encountered so many things these days. Did your city lord's palace come forward to uphold justice for my Zhou family? Where is your justice?"
Zhou Yuan spoke in an angry but resounding tone.
For a moment, Luo Fengtian was silent.
"Presumptuous, you..."
The soldier next to him opened his mouth to scold him, but Luo Fengtian raised his hand to stop him.
He looked at Zhou Yuan with a calm expression, "I will certainly give you justice, but not now."
There was a hint of disappointment in Zhou Yuan's eyes.
"Since you can't give me justice, then I will seek justice for myself."
Zhou Yuan Huo De turned around and immediately swept the sword in his hand towards Xiao Long.
In this world, the strong are respected. Only the strong can win respect. Strength is justice.
The sword was so fast that Xiao Long, the eldest elder of the Xiao family who was standing by, had no time to react before a bloody line was slashed across his throat.
Immediately blood spurted out, Xiao Long opened his mouth, but could not speak, his face was full of panic.
The next moment, he fell to his knees and lost his life.
The expressions of the surrounding Xiao family members all changed. They didn't expect that Zhou Yuan would dare to kill people in front of the city lord's palace, just for killing people in their Xiao family's residence.
Luo Fengtian frowned again.
He originally wanted to stop him, but Zhou Yuan drew his sword so fast that he didn't even notice.
For a moment, the aura on Luo Fengtian's body suddenly rose.
He is clearly a strong man at the pinnacle of the ninth level of Qi Transformation Realm.
Luo Fengtian's aura was majestic and terrifying, and he pointed at Zhou Yuan.
"Ignorant child, how dare you?"
There was a loud shout, and the sound spread in circles, making people's eardrums hurt, and everyone around them covered their ears.
Zhou Yuan remained unmoved and stared at Luo Fengtian with cold eyes.
Luo Fengtian was slightly shocked when he saw this. He obviously didn't expect that the coercion of his ninth level of Qi transformation could not frighten the opponent at all.
All three respected elders of the Xiao family died.
Without Xiao Batian's absence, the entire Xiao family fell into panic for a moment, and some even felt sad.
"Isn't Xiao Batian here?"
Luo Fengtian turned to look at the Xiao family members.
A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks came out. He looked at Luo Fengtian and said with a smile on his face: "The head of the family left Tianluo City with the head of the Jiang family a few days ago and disappeared."
Luo Fengtian pondered for a moment.
The sharp-mouthed Xiao family member continued: "City Lord, my Xiao family is also a citizen of Tianyun Kingdom, and as the first family, we pay huge taxes every year. You can't ignore this Zhou Yuan who kills innocent people indiscriminately."
"Huh, take care of it? Are you really going to let me take care of it?"
Luo Fengtian snorted coldly, "Don't think that I don't know that your Xiao family and Jiang family have done dirty things behind my back these days. My city guard general saw you coming down from Jilei Mountain overnight. The next day
Then word spread about Zhou Yuan’s deeds.”
"If you really let me take care of it, I can invite a master from the imperial capital who is good at soul-searching. Then as long as I start soul-searching, I can easily get to the bottom of your affairs."
"When the time comes, it's not clear whether Zhou Yuan's crimes or your Xiao family's crimes should be punished."
Luo Fengtian gave the other party a cold look.
The Xiao family members immediately shut up and stopped talking.
The Soul Searching Technique can search all the memories in a person's mind to know certain things.
But this kind of magic is only in the hands of the royal family of Tianyun Kingdom.
If Luo Fengtian wants to call, he will not only waste a lot of money, but also waste favors.
Therefore, he would not resort to such measures unless absolutely necessary.
Luo Fengtian's words at this moment were obviously trying to excuse Zhou Yuan.
As the city lord of Tianluo City, Luo Fengtian naturally knew what happened on the night of the thunderstorm, but without actual evidence, it was difficult for him to control it.
"Let this matter go, Zhou Yuan, please leave."
Luo Fengtian looked at Zhou Yuan again.
The other Xiao family members around were all stunned.
Zhou Yuan killed everyone in the Xiao family, even killing people in front of the city lord, but in the end the city lord let him go?
It has to be said that Luo Fengtian defended Zhou Yuan very obviously.
Zhou Yuan seemed to be aware of it, pondered for a moment, and then nodded slightly.
City Lord Luo already defended him, so he naturally wanted to give him face.
When passing by Luo Fengtian, Luo Fengtian patted Zhou Yuan on the shoulder and said: "You have very good qualifications. A messenger will come from the Imperial Capital in a few days to screen the backbone of the Royal Capital Reserve Battalion nationwide. You have good qualifications."
, I will sign up for you when the time comes, don’t let me down.”
"Backbone of the reserve battalion?" Zhou Yuan was stunned.
Luo Fengtian nodded, "This is the reserve force of our Tianyun Kingdom. If you are shortlisted, no matter how bad you do in the end, you will still be able to become a city lord."
"What?" Zhou Yuan was suddenly shocked.
This is Tianyun Kingdom's army recruiting new members, and in the end they can at least become the city lord.
If you become the city lord, you will be the king of the city. Why should you fear being oppressed by others? Why should you fear being persecuted by others?
Zhou Yuan's breathing suddenly became rapid.
After a pause, Zhou Yuan asked again: "Can the envoy you mentioned be able to use the soul-searching technique?"
Hearing this, Luo Fengtian immediately rolled his eyes at Zhou Yuan.
"Do you think soul searching is just a piece of cake?"
"Pretend I didn't say it." Zhou Yuan smiled and quickly left the Xiao family's residence.
The Soul Searching Technique sounds like a taboo technique, so naturally not many people practice it.
And Zhou Yuan thought of Xuanyuan Jiuji Pagoda.
In the Xuanyuan Jiuji Pagoda, there may be techniques such as soul-searching techniques, but he himself knew that he had been framed, and it would be useless to practice soul-searching techniques on his own.
As soon as he walked out of the Xiao family's residence, Zhou Yuan saw Zhou Canghai and his party waiting quietly outside the residence.
It turned out that before arriving, Zhou Canghai saw Luo Fengtian entering the Xiao family's residence first, so he watched silently outside the door and did not go in.
