"The envoy doesn't know. The war cost a lot, and in addition to appeasing the prisoners, the inventory is not that much now. I hope to have a few days of grace."
"No, just this afternoon. I am busy with work and will leave tomorrow. Lord City Lord, you'd better take care of yourself, haha..."
The imperial envoy laughed and left.
Yu Qingyi wanted to say a few more words, but the imperial envoy had already turned around. However, at this moment, a pair of eyes came over. Yu Qingyi keenly caught these eyes, and the owners of these eyes turned out to be two people following the imperial envoy.
One of the soldiers.
He is the prince.
When the prince saw Yu Qingyi looking towards him, he immediately retracted his eyes, lowered his head, turned around and followed the imperial envoy away.
"Brother Yu, what's the matter? Are you interested in that soldier?"
When Feng Ying saw that Yu Qingyi had been looking at the soldier, he also looked over, but found nothing unusual, so he withdrew his gaze.
"It's not that I'm interested, it's that he is interested in me."
"Oh? How do you say this?"
"Before leaving, he looked at me with sharp eyes. He didn't look like an ordinary soldier, but like a high-ranking and powerful man."
"Perhaps he is the master who protected the imperial envoy this time. Brother Yu, you should have discovered that the imperial envoy turned out to be a person with no cultivation. Presumably, he relied on nepotism to get into an official position."
"Brother Feng, there is no need to be angry, nepotism is not shady, as long as you have the ability."
On Tsing Yi Road.
Feng Ying said: "We didn't talk about this. Now he obviously wants to make things difficult for us. What should we do? If we don't hand it over in the afternoon, it is tantamount to treason. The emperor will know about it in the evening, so there will be an imperial edict the next day.
Let’s launch a crusade against Phoenix City.”
Yu Qingyi thought for a while and said: "This matter is actually not difficult. I just need to do some writing in the afternoon."
"How?"
"That's the soldier. You'll know who he is this afternoon."
Yu Qingyi snorted coldly.
Yu Qingyi still felt that this person was not simple, so he had already thought of a strategy. As long as they came over in the afternoon, they could delay the time and know this person's true cultivation level.
Feng Ying is also looking forward to what is about to happen in the afternoon. He believes in Yu Qingyi's ability to do things happily. When he said there is a way, Feng Ying absolutely believes it, and he believes it 100%, as if the friendship between the two has been around for a long time.
They have been the same for tens of thousands of years, trusting each other so much.
Time flies by so fast, and it’s already afternoon in a blink of an eye.
As expected, the imperial envoy came in with two soldiers, but this time the two soldiers had been replaced by two others, not the two this morning, which made Yu Qingyi even more suspicious.
As soon as the imperial envoy arrived here, he said: "Lord City Lord, have you prepared the tribute money? If not, it doesn't matter. I will report the truth to the superiors and let the superiors make a decision."
"Envoy, after a whole morning we have collected the tribute money, and now we would like to ask the envoy to take a look."
While speaking, Yu Qingyi waved his hand, and a space ring slowly flew towards the dynasty envoy. Just when the dynasty envoy was about to reach out and take it, a black shadow suddenly flashed across, caught the space ring, and
A sword stabbed towards Qing Yi.
"There are assassins."
Whoosh whoosh!!!
Three men in black appeared side by side in the room again. As soon as the three men appeared, they assassinated the envoy of the dynasty. When the envoy of the dynasty saw this posture, he almost collapsed to the ground in fright. At this critical moment,
The two soldiers had a flash of white light and a sudden breath, and they had reached the realm of true gods.
It turns out that these two soldiers have self-proclaimed cultivation, and they are also strong in the realm of true gods.
The three men in black immediately fought with the two soldiers. For a moment, swords were flashing and fighting spirit was flying all over the sky.
The man in black who attacked Yu Qingyi thrust his sword at Yu Qingyi fiercely. Yu Qingyi stretched out his hand to block, but at this moment, no one noticed that there was a man in black hiding above Yu Qingyi's head.
I saw the man in black stabbing with his sword.
ah!
Stab it to the end.
The sword was stabbed from the top of Yu Qingyi's head. As soon as it was stabbed to the bottom, blood flowed all over the floor.
"withdraw!"
A man in black issued an order, and immediately the bodies of five men in black disappeared in the meeting hall. From the beginning to the end, the five men in black said a single word, and no one knew their whereabouts.
When the imperial envoy saw that the five men in black had left, he tidied up his clothes timidly. When he saw that Yu Qingyi was dead and still so miserable, he couldn't help but take two steps back in fright.
"Hurry, hurry, hurry..."
At this moment, Feng Ying rushed in with the guards of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Get it for me."
When Feng Ying saw Yu Qingyi's tragic death, he shouted loudly, and the guards immediately surrounded the three of them.
"You don't want to arrest the assassin, but you want to arrest the imperial envoy. Are you planning to rebel in Phoenix City?"
A soldier, fearless in the face of danger, shouted.
Feng Ying said: "You are the murderer, and you still want to deny it. Our city lord's palace is so tightly guarded, how could an assassin come in? The person who came here sealed their cultivation, I will take them all and put them in prison."
At Feng Ying's order, these guards immediately captured them like wolves and tigers. The guards brought by Feng Ying all had cultivation levels above those of true gods. Even if they wanted to escape, they would not be able to escape.
After they were escorted away, Feng Ying suddenly laughed and said: "Brother Yu, your plan is very ordinary. Anyone with any brains will know that you were faked to be assassinated."
Yu Qingyi, who had been stabbed to death, suddenly stood up straight and said, "Haha, it doesn't matter whether the strategy is good or bad. What is important is that the envoy of the imperial dynasty has been imprisoned by us now. Let's go and take the entourage now."
Arrest them all, and we will wait for the young master to come out and take charge of the overall situation."
It turns out that this so-called assassination was just a little trick played by Yu Qingyi. The purpose was to delay time. As long as the dynasty envoys were controlled, they would not be able to contact the dynasty so easily, which would give them more time.
Everything went very smoothly, but to Yu Qingyi's surprise, one person escaped, and it was the soldier who came here in the morning. The soldier was not at his residence, so he was not captured. He didn't come back at all when he left in the morning.
That courtyard.
As a result, Yu Qingyi became even more suspicious of this person, and even thought that he was the real envoy of the imperial dynasty.
All the gates in the city were tightly closed, and every household was searched. For a while, there was a rumbling noise and people were panicked. However, when they heard that the murderer who assassinated the city lord was captured, they were all very angry and quite cooperative.
After searching from house to house, I still couldn't find this person.
"Brother Yu, it seems to me that he only has two places to go now?"
Feng Ying said.
It was already the afternoon of the second day, and now the two of them were walking by the back lake of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Oh? Which two places?"
"One is outside the city, and the other is hiding in Wutian League. Only there our people cannot go in and search."
Yu Qingyi said: "Heroes have similar views. But I think he will be in the Wutian Alliance."
"Oh, why?"
"Wutian League is well-informed. He will pay a high price to let Wutian League spread the news here to the imperial court, and he can also protect his safety by hiding there."
"So, all our efforts have been wasted?"
"No, he thought he was hiding in the Wutian League and we wouldn't dare to touch him. He is really naive. I have mobilized a large army to surround the Wutian League. The crime is harboring the suspect."
Feng Ying was startled when he heard this, "Brother Yu, I would rather anger the Baiyu Dynasty than the Wutian League. You don't know that the strength of the Wutian League is much higher than that of the Baiyu Dynasty. They have always been extremely mysterious."
, we are in big trouble this time."
Feng Ying knows a lot about the Wutian League. The more he knows, the more he understands how terrifying they are. Therefore, he has always kept a distance from the Wutian League and avoided whenever possible.
But this time they sent out a large army to surround their branch, which was a provocation and contempt for the Wutian League. In order to defend their dignity, the Wutian League had to take action even if they didn't want to.
And this time we will face two enemies, two very powerful enemies, one is Baiyu Dynasty and the other is Wutian Alliance.
At this time, at the entrance of the Wutian League branch, there were officers and soldiers on both sides. With such a posture, it was difficult for even a small flying insect to fly out.
The door of this Wutian League branch is closed tightly, and it seems that there is no one in this branch.
But just inside, there were hundreds of people, each of them exuding a strong aura, and each of them had their own magic weapons in their hands, ready to rush out and fight at any time.
Still in that secret room, one person was sitting beside the bed and the other was standing in front of him.
"Young Master, Phoenix City is simply lawless. They no longer take the Wutian League into consideration. They think they have defeated the Beichen family, so they think the Wutian League is easy to bully. We must immediately ask the headquarters for instructions and send many powerful Lord Gods down.
Phoenix City was razed to the ground." The one who spoke was the branch president, the old man.
"We will not attack Ye Shengtian until we find out his specific information. This is also the principle of our Wutian Alliance."
"But they have surrounded this place."
"Let's just surround him. We can afford it. By the way, how is the prince doing?"
"This man is very powerful. He is one of the powerful successors to the next emperor of the Baiyu Dynasty. However, according to various signs, his master should be an eighth-level master god. The specific identity has not yet been found out."
"A powerful eighth-level Lord God? He's quite a character. No wonder he has the courage to come to Phoenix City."
The young master whispered.
"Then what do we do now?"
"Don't worry about them. Just pretend that this matter has never happened. And you go tell the prince that the outside has been blocked. Let him stay here for the time being. Don't worry about safety. Please rest assured. Wutian
The alliance has already passed the news here to the imperial court."
Now the prince also knew about the siege by the army outside, but he was not worried, and even laughed out loud, "The city lord of Phoenix City is really stupid, he actually came to besiege Wutian League, but this is good, and it will make people angry at the same time.
With the Wutian Alliance, let them kill each other, and I, the Baiyu Dynasty, can take advantage of this opportunity."
