"I'm not asking the city lord for guilt. It's just that a family was quietly wiped out in Lianfeng City. In the eyes of the city lord, isn't it a factor that affects the stability of this place?" Liu Wei asked.
"Young Master Liu came here today to be so aggressive. Do you want my City Lord's Mansion to hand over the murderer for you? Or do you want my City Lord's Mansion to avenge you?" Chen Yi's face has gradually become a little ugly. Being questioned repeatedly and rudely by such a young boy made even Chen Yi, who had always been good-tempered, a little annoyed. After all, he was the lord of a city. Except for the big shots in the imperial capital, when had he ever been questioned like this?
In fact, Chen Yi was quite shocked by the annihilation of the Liu family at that time. After all, hundreds of members of the Liu family were wiped out overnight, so he still had to treat it with caution. If unstable factors appeared and caused chaos in the area under his jurisdiction, he would definitely You will be held accountable by the imperial capital. Therefore, he sent a large number of people to investigate the cause of the matter, but the scene was burned to ashes by a fire, not even a body was left, and he had no clue, so he could only give up.
After the incident, he also stepped up patrols in nearby and distant places to prevent similar incidents from happening again without knowing anything about it. However, everything calmed down later and no similar incidents happened again, so it returned to normal. Regarding the destruction of the Liu family, he could only think that it was the work of his enemies, not a conspiracy against Lianfeng City.
"That's not the case. I just want to ask the City Lord's Mansion to help continue to investigate the cause of this matter and which force did it. The City Lord can make you conditions, and I can help in any way I can." Liu Wei said.
Hearing what Liu Wei said, Chen Yi's face became a little better.
If he just continued to investigate, he could have agreed superficially, but after a while, he would still have excused himself on the grounds that he could not find any clues. He doesn't have the time or energy to investigate this matter right now. The Imperial Capital Competition is about to take place, and he hasn't even found any good personnel yet.
As for what the young man said about asking him to make conditions, let's forget it. Not to mention that the Liu family, a third-rate declining family, has been wiped out, but to say that the young man in front of him, at such a young age, wants strength but not strength, and wants property but no property. How can he help? to myself.
Chen Yigang wanted to deal with it verbally and dismissed the young man first. Suddenly, a guard hurried in and leaned over to speak a few words in his ear.
Chen Yi remained calm, raised his head and glanced at the young man in front of him, and then asked: "Are you sure it's correct?"
"Confirmed, judging from the many clues investigated, it must be this person." The guard replied.
"I know, let's get down!" Chen Yi waved his hand to the guard and said.
The guard glanced at Liu Wei before turning around and leaving, with a hint of fear in his eyes. Liu Wei happened to catch this change.
"I can help you continue the investigation, but before that, there are some things I want to confirm with you." Chen Yi looked at Liu Wei and said.
"What's the matter?" Liu Wei asked. He was a little confused. There was something wrong with the guard's eyes when he left just now. It was his first time to come to the city lord's mansion today.
"Are the fifteen corpses in the bamboo forest outside the city related to you?" Chen Yi asked, staring into the young man's eyes.
"I didn't expect the City Lord's Mansion to be so well-informed. I still underestimated the City Lord's Mansion's ability. It does have something to do with me." Liu Wei didn't want to hide it and admitted it truthfully. First, there is no need to hide it, and second, there is no way to hide it. Someone must have already found out about him.
At that time, a group of people followed him out of the city. Many people saw it. Among other things, Old Huang at the city gate knew it after asking. There is also Lao Mei, but she has witnessed it with her own eyes.
"Is there someone behind you?" Chen Yi asked.
"There is indeed someone, but I did it myself, and the people behind me didn't do anything." Liu Wei still answered truthfully. The purpose of admitting that there is someone behind him is to make Chen Yi pay attention to him. The purpose of admitting that he did it is to let Chen Yi see his ability.
"Who?" Chen Yi continued.
"A great emperor, I cannot reveal who he is specifically." Liu Wei answered seriously. Telling that there is a great emperor behind him can make Chen Yi not dare to be overt and covert during the investigation, and just go through the motions.
Chen Yi frowned obviously. He stared at Liu Wei's eyes to see if what he said was true, but Liu Wei remained calm and composed, his eyes unchanged, like a clear spring water without any ripples.
"I see that you are only in the Kong realm, how did you kill so many people who are higher than you? There are two of them who are in the Venerable realm." Chen Yi still didn't believe that Liu Wei could kill so many people with his own strength. Multiple people. As an emperor, he couldn't misjudge the opponent's realm.
"I am a sword cultivator, and I am a fellow cultivator in both realms. The realm of swordsmanship is the Jianxu realm, and I can cross levels to kill people." Liu Wei said calmly.
"Are you sure you can kill the venerable person by leaping two levels without bragging?" Chen Yi still didn't believe it. Although he knew that swordsmanship was indeed stronger than the same level, and it might be possible to go one level higher, but killing people two levels higher was not something that ordinary genius monsters could do. And from what he observed, this young man didn't have any special physique.
"I'm not bragging. Killing an ordinary noble is like slaughtering a dog, but a king can also fight!" Liu Wei's words were quite domineering and confident.
"Do you dare to fight against the geniuses in my house?" Chen Yi asked.
"Why don't you dare?" Liu Wei said confidently.
Chen Yi nodded, and then shouted toward the door: "Here comes someone!"
A guard soon came to the main hall, knelt down on one knee and said: "What are the orders from the city lord?"
"Let the four geniuses come to the martial arts training ground." Chen Yi ordered them.
"Yes." The guard said and quickly retreated.
"Let's go, follow me to the martial arts training ground, fight with the four geniuses, let me see your strength." After Chen Yi said that, he raised his feet and walked outside.
Liu Wei followed closely and walked out.
The martial arts training ground is not too big, only dozens of feet long and wide. It is paved with bluestone floors. There is a shelf on each side. The shelves are filled with various weapons, such as knives, guns, swords, halberds, sticks, sticks, and hooks. , chains, ropes, shields, bows and arrows, etc.
Half a quarter of an hour later, three men and one woman appeared next to the two. The four of them are all fourteen or fifteen years old, but their cultivation has already reached the level of a venerable.
Liu Wei glanced at a few people. One of them was a man with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He was taller than an adult man. He carried a mountain-climbing sword on his shoulder. It must have weighed at least a hundred kilograms. The sword was of the highest quality.
There was a man who was thin and frail, with a pale face. He was holding a long gun in his hand, as if it could be blown down by a gust of wind. This was in sharp contrast to the man carrying the knife. The gun was also of the highest quality.
The other man was holding a mace, which was of the lower grade. The man is obese and as tall as Liu Wei.
The last woman was gentle and quiet, with a ponytail. She had an average appearance, not too unrefined, and not ugly either. He holds a jade flute in his hand and hangs a jade pendant on his waist. The jade flute is a true low-grade treasure.
Judging from the auras of several people, the auras of the three men were obviously weak and unstable. It seemed that they had just broken through to the Taoist realm, or they had forcibly piled up the realm with heavenly materials and earthly treasures, so they were like this. The woman's aura was calm, and she had been thinking about reaching the realm of the Venerable for some time.
"Why did the city lord ask us to come here?" The man carrying the knife was the first to ask. He has a carefree, arrogant and unruly character.
"A few of them are here because they want to have a discussion with Mr. Liu!" Chen Yi said calmly.
After hearing Chen Yi's words, the four of them looked at Liu Wei, and then several of them frowned, and then their faces became unsightly.
"Even if the Lord of the City doesn't think highly of us, there's no need to find a child from the Sky Realm to entertain us!" The man carrying the knife had a hot temper, and his tone was quite dissatisfied.
"Don't misunderstand me, don't underestimate Mr. Liu. Although he is a few years younger than you and his level is not as high as yours, his real fighting power can compete with you." Chen Yi actually didn't know if this young man could defeat him. He has passed these people, so he said he can fight with them.
"In that case, let me teach you your brother's clever moves!" After the man carrying the knife finished speaking, he stomped his feet on the ground, and his whole body landed on the martial arts field like a cannonball, which shook the martial arts field. Shake.
Liu Wei took his time and walked steadily toward the martial arts training ground.
"The sword has no eyes. If I accidentally hurt this kid later, the city lord won't blame me, right?" The man carrying the sword asked as he stood on the martial arts training ground and looked at Chen Yi below. In their opinion, the boy in front of them is the city lord's man. If he is seriously injured and the city lord blames him, it will not end well.
Chen Yi did not speak, but turned to look at Liu Wei who was already standing on the martial arts ground. He didn't dare to agree easily. There was a great emperor behind Liu Wei. If the protector came to cause trouble, it would be difficult to explain.
"No one will blame you. If you are capable of this kind of competition, no one will blame you even if you kill me here." Liu Wei said without any hint of worry.
"That's good, show your weapon!" After hearing what Liu Wei said, the man carrying the knife was no longer as sarcastic as before. Being able to say this is a man worthy of his respect.
Liu Wei opened his right hand, and a sword appeared in his hand. It's not the Fulu Sword, but the captured Spirit Sword. The few people in front of him were not enough for him to use the Fulu Sword, but the sword in his hand was completely enough.
The moment Liu Wei held the sword, his whole aura completely changed. He was like an unsheathed sword, giving people a sharp and powerful feeling.
"Huh? Sword cultivator? Sword Void Realm, Sky Realm, Dual Realm fellow cultivators? It's really extraordinary." The man carrying the knife said as he looked at the young man in front of him.
Several people in the audience no longer had the previous contempt in their eyes. They were all extraordinary people. At this moment, they already felt that this young man was by no means as simple as he seemed before.
Chen Yi also nodded slightly. This young man was indeed not lying. With this kind of momentum, he could definitely kill an ordinary venerable person.
