Chapter 22
The oily-haired and powder-faced man kept wiping the sweat drops from his forehead when he spoke.
Tang Li, the city lord of Gulin City, the cultivation of Wuzun in the later period.
Unlike the Eastern Regions, where only Wuzun's cultivation was to be killed, in the Middle Domain, strictly speaking, Wuzun's cultivation was actually not weak, unless the four major forces were involved, otherwise, Wuzun's realm could dominate one side no matter where he went.
"Tang City Lord, excuse me. Ning Wei bowed slightly.
"Master Ning Shao is polite...... Tang Li returned the salute, listening to the crowd that was still noisy, he couldn't help but secretly slander in his heart.
His ancient forest city was originally good, although it was not as large as the imperial capital, but because of the border with other forces, the prosperity was even comparable to some large cities.
The city is good, because of the arrival of peace, the women in the city are almost crazy...... I don't know how much damage the fighting outside will bring today! If
you are not careful, this ancient forest city will not be going back hundreds of thousands of years.
If it weren't for Ning Wei's identity there, if he was replaced by a person with a lower status, he would not have to directly arrest and cure a big crime that disturbed
the city!
Although he scolded people wildly in his heart, Tang Li was still very polite on the surface: "Young Lord Ning came to Tang's small ancient forest city, I don't know what happened? If you can help, you will never refuse." City
Lord Tang laughed.
After a pause, Ning Wei made a gesture of sitting down: "My Ning clan traitor Liu Chen fled to Gulin City, and this son has escaped from pursuit many times in the city...... Ning was a little puzzled.
Ning Lao took out a chair made of jade at the right time and sat down.
"I've heard about it.
Tang Li first thought thoughtfully, and then sighed lightly: "It stands to reason that when Liu Chen fled into Gulin City, he should have mobilized the people of the City Lord's Mansion to help the Ning clan pursue him, but the guards of the City Lord's Mansion belonged to the empire, and the empire had already banned it, so it was not allowed to interfere in the disputes of the rest of the forces privately."
After finishing speaking, Tang Li smiled bitterly again: "A few days ago, I had already played His Majesty the Wind Emperor, but somehow, I didn't respond for a long time, and I didn't dare to make a decision privately, so I asked Master Ning Shao to forgive me." "
It didn't sound like a problem, everything was explained just right.
Ning Wei leaned back in his chair and took a moment: "But how did I hear that Liu Chen escaped several times, and there seemed to be a faint handiwork of the City Lord's Mansion behind him?"
Tang Li's face froze...... Don't look at the fact that he can talk and laugh with Ning Wei at this time, I think he really has some status.
It's all just because he's the city lord of the Wind Empire.
Ning Wei came to the Wind Empire, and in the face of the Lord of a city, he had to show some courtesy no matter what, not to Tang Li, but to the Wind Empire.
But if Tang Li made a mistake, even if Ning Wei killed Tang Li on the spot, the Wind Empire would not have any reaction, who let Ning Wei and Han Yue's engagement date only have three days?
Tang Li had something to do with this? Why didn't he know!
Although he also suspected that Liu Chen's several escapes might have something to do with the City Lord's Mansion...... However, the Wind Empire is a huge force equal to the Ning Clan's Divine Clan, unless there is evidence, you can't talk nonsense!
"Why did Young Master Ning say this?" Tang Liqiang laughed.
Ning Wei diverted the topic and chuckled: "Feel free to say it, I heard that there is an auction in the city tomorrow, and I am bothered by the city lord to arrange it, and the place where I settled today is also bothered by the city lord."
"How dare you call it tireless? Tang Li laughed.
Tang Li waved his hand and summoned the housekeeper in the house: "You go and arrange this matter personally, if you are slack, come and see you!"
Then
the housekeeper's face was full of flattery: "Young Master Ning, please come with the villain."
Ning Wei left after the butler.
Far away, Ning Wei suddenly pointed out: "Tang City Lord, Ning and Xiaoying's childhood sweetheart, even if we have a contradiction, it is only a momentary anger, I hope that the city lord, don't make a mistake."
After finishing speaking, Ning Wei and Ning Lao had already followed behind the housekeeper and stayed away from here.
Tang Li's face suddenly began to be cloudy.
After a moment, he looked in the direction of the Wind Empire's
imperial capital, his face showing an ugly look and hesitation.
Castle Lord's Mansion Room.
Ning Lao raised his hand and sealed the seal, isolating the inside and outside.
"Young master, what did you mean just now that Liu Chen's matter and Princess Hanyue intervened?" Ning Lao's voice was a little heavy.
Ning Wei closed his eyes: "Maybe there is, maybe not, who knows." "
He's not sure.
He could only be sure that Tang Li
was the person of the Blood Shadow Rider, and he was the patriarch of the Blood Shadow Rider when it was first established!
And the Blood Shadow Rider was secretly formed for the second day of Hanyue's rebirth, and the entire Wind Empire, except for the Blood Shadow Rider, was the only one who knew about the existence of the Blood Shadow Rider.
As for Liu Chen, in the script of Hanyue's revenge...... A year after Hanyue's rebirth, Liu Chen betrayed the Ning family, and then made rapid progress in cultivation, and secretly took refuge in Hanyue.
At the same time, he continued to spread rumors about the Ning Clan's divine clan, or uncovered some dark truths, and disclosed the bloody incident to the surface, inciting countless forces to secretly oppose the Ning family.
It was the vanguard on the road of Hanyue's revenge, coupled with the Wind Empire's secret planning, a mere Liu Chen actually caused a lot of trouble to the Ning family and the Guchen Holy Zone.
It's a pity that Liu Chen failed to die well.
According to the script, Liu Chen's cultivation continued to improve, and after breaking through the late stage of Wuzun, he successfully cultivated to the peak because of a chance, and then completely expanded, and even confessed to Hanyue, but was rejected, and then in a fit of anger, he wanted to cook raw rice and mature rice.
And then...... No more, he was killed by Hanyue and the Blood Shadow Rider.
Because of this, the Ning Clan and the Ancient Dust Holy Land found out that Liu Chen was actually involved with the Wind Empire, and in a fit of rage, they joined forces to deal with the Wind Empire, but unfortunately it was too late, and the Blood Shadow Rider under the command of Han Yue had already become a big trend, and the destruction of the Ning Clan and the Ancient Dust Holy Land also began.
Knowing this, Ning Wei naturally wouldn't let Liu Chen go, thinking that it was just a small role used by Hanyue, but he didn't expect that this small role was not simple.
He was very suspicious, Liu Chen was probably also the son of luck.
Otherwise, no matter what the reason and reason is, a normal person, even if it is a martial artist, will never be able to escape from the Ning family's clan!
......
Following.
West side of the castle.
A circular building that covers an area of about 100 feet.
Jumbo Pavilion.
Because of the auction, the Treasure Pavilion is extremely lively today, and many people continue to enter as soon as the sky is bright.
There are two passages at the entrance.
One is the VIP lane, which is sparsely populated.
One is an ordinary passage, and the people in line are nearly 20 feet.
"I knew that the auction would be very lively, but I didn't expect it to be so lively.
A person who thought he was well-informed suddenly interjected: "It's normal, the day after tomorrow is the day when Princess Hanyue and the young master of the Ning clan get engaged, His Majesty the Wind Emperor is overjoyed, the treasury is opened, and there are many treasures flowing into the people, and there are several treasures in this auction that the Treasure Pavilion has spent a lot of effort to get from His Majesty's treasury, how can it not be lively?".
