Enter the depths of the treasure house.
At a glance, the three great saints saw Feng Ling sitting lazily on the top of a hill formed by a pile of shining ghost stones, and Tong Lao who was carefully counting the gods' stones.
"I've met the city lord! I've met Mr. Tong!"
At the top of the Ghost Stone Hill, Mr. Tong glanced sideways at the three people below and responded with a "hmm".
"Oh? You three are traveling at night! Didn't you say you were busy? Why did you all come here when you had time?"
However, Feng Ling, who was aside, was holding the account book he was looking through with his left hand, and playing with three or two smooth God's Stones in his right hand, and throwing them into the air twice from time to time, as if he was carefree.
Seeing this scene, the Night Ghost King's eyes trembled wildly, and he begged: "City Lord, you must not drain the lake and take away all the God's Stones!"
"Huh? Didn't you say that if you let me fall in love with something, just take it away?"
Feng Ling moved away the account book that was blocking her sight, and looked down at the three Ye Xing people who were bowing respectfully below, with a hint of joking flashing in her eyes.
"This... I hope the city lord will forgive me. It's just Luo Li, a monster who talks nonsense, and naturally he can't do anything!"
As he said that, Ye Xing clasped his fists and glared at the Sky Demon Girl, who looked away knowingly.
"Hmph! In this way, do you want to deny it?" Feng Ling scolded in displeasure.
The three people in Ye Xing immediately lowered their heads and remained silent, praying in their hearts that they could resist this wave as soon as possible.
However, Feng Ling did not intend to stop there. He chased Night Ghost King by name and continued to put pressure on him, "Ye Xing, let me ask you, does the Ghost Tower's production of God's Stones reach dozens of pieces per month?"
"Yes! On average in the past six months, the lowest is 30 to 40 coins, and the highest is 60 to 70 coins!"
Hearing this, Night Ghost King did not dare to hide anything, and this news must have been revealed by Mr. Tong.
"Then let me ask you again, do I have the final say in this Fierce Ghost Holy City? And do all the resources in the Holy City's treasury fall under my overall planning and deployment?"
Feng Ling's expression was solemn, and Ye Xing did not dare to look at him. He nodded subconsciously and said: "The city lord has the final say! It is also the city lord who coordinates the arrangements!"
"very good!"
Seeing that the hole was almost dug, Feng Ling said in a stern tone: "Since it's all up to me, then what's the harm if I take away all the three hundred God's Stones? What's more, I can ask you I promise, I’m just borrowing a hundred coins temporarily to save people, and I’ll definitely replenish them all later! This is considered a step back for each of us, what do you think?”
"City Lord, this method is not advisable!"
After hearing this, Queen Night Ghost realized that she had fallen into the trap of words, so she could only list a few examples and earnestly advise: "Although the monthly output of the God's Stone in our Ghost Tower is quite a lot, But our Fierce Ghost Holy City consumes a lot of money every month: just maintaining the operation of the eight-ring defensive barrier is a huge expense, as well as hundreds of medium-distance teleportation arrays, as well as those that are being repaired. Several long-distance teleportation arrays require a large amount of manpower, material resources, and financial resources to be maintained over a long period of time! Therefore, rashly misappropriating a large number of God's Stones is likely to cause a disruption in the energy supply! How can you abandon it just for your own selfishness? Are we ignoring the safety of hundreds of millions of citizens in our entire city?"
After saying that, the Night Ghost King looked at Mr. Tong beside Feng Ling and continued to add: "It is true that our Holy Ghost City attracted much attention at the beginning of its reconstruction. The super sect forces from all sides had ulterior motives and successively sent strong men from the Heavenly Ranking to find out the truth. , If it weren’t for Mr. Tong’s intervention, and if Miaoyin Immortal Pavilion and the Titled Trade Union had settled in one after another and recognized the legitimacy of our new city, I’m afraid they would have joined forces to attack the city to hunt down the ghosts, driven by greed!”
"Why didn't I hear you mention such an important thing when I woke up before?" Feng Ling said.
Luo Liyan smiled and said: "City Lord, you had just woken up at that time, and you already have the sequelae of demonization. I am worried that if you find out, it will be more detrimental to your physical recovery!"
Feng Ling frowned slightly and looked at Mr. Tong.
Seeing this, Mr. Tong stroked his beard and said with a smile: "That's right! Regarding this, I can confirm for them that those super sect boys do have evil intentions, and they want to fight against people who are not from my race, and their minds must be different." 'The banner invaded the Holy City and acted domineeringly! However, according to the intelligence feedback from the Biluo Huangquan organization afterwards, those people were instructed by the leading force in the southwest - the Eighth-Rank Holy Sect, the Yunfeng Tisuo Sect!"
"Yunfeng Tissot Sect..."
Feng Ling's eyes were serious: "Very good! Let's record this hatred for our city first, and wait for the Wan Zong Grand Competition to attack!"
Thousands of years ago, there were two superpowers in the south of Dongsheng Shenzhou, one was Menggui City in the southeast region, and the other was the Yunfeng Tisuo Sect in the southwest region.
However, with the fall of Menggui City in the southeast region, the entire southeast region was in disarray, and it was impossible to find a new representative force that could compete with the Yunfeng Tissot Sect in the southwest region.
Naturally, for a long period of time, everything in the entire southern region was decided by the Yunfeng Tisuo Sect. Until the emergence of the Fierce Ghost Holy City, which invisibly weakened the Yunfeng Tissot Sect's regional influence, it was inevitable in their hearts. Will be unhappy.
However, at that time, news circulated within the Jingdingliu Super Sect that the Holy City of Fierce Ghosts had been designated as the Holy Land of Fierce Ghosts by Divine Envoy Murong himself.
This means that the reconstruction of Menggui Holy City has been officially recognized by the Eastern Holy Continent and the three major divine sects. It enjoys all legal rights and a high degree of internal autonomy, and no one else has the right to interfere.
Therefore, the top leaders of the Yunfeng Tisuo Sect did not dare to openly provoke troubles, so they secretly instigated those super sects who were late in the news to come and serve as cannon fodder and cause trouble.
"Okay, I almost got distracted by you guys! Let's not talk about the Yunfeng Tissot Sect for now. Let's get back to the topic!"
Feng Ling looked at the three Ye Xing with slightly changed expressions after hearing this with a half-smile, and suddenly shouted angrily: "Ye Xing! Luo Li! Beichen! You three have all sworn to be loyal to me to the death, and now you are So loyal? This city lord just wants to borrow hundreds of God's Stones, but you are blocking it in every possible way! In this case, I hope you understand that the next step is not to discuss with you, but a city order to inform: I will use this God's Stone It’s a must today!”
Hearing this, the three great saints grimaced.
Immediately, Ye Xing looked forward to death, stood up, clasped his fists and knelt down and sighed: "City Lord, although the three of us have sworn an oath to be loyal to you to the death, if we encounter a situation like you are going your own way and making wrong decisions right now, then what will happen to you?" I would rather die than remonstrate with you! And if you insist on taking away the God's Stone today, Ye Xing will be unworthy of the expectations of the old city master of Qinglan and the people of the Holy City, and I am willing to kill myself with my soul to apologize!"
After saying this, before Feng Ling could react, Night Ghost King glanced sideways at Beichen beside him.
Beichen immediately understood and knelt down and echoed: "City Lord, Beichen also thinks that what Ye Laogui said this time is absolutely true! As a true leader, City Lord, you should set an example for us. How can you take the lead in pretending to be a public servant for selfish reasons? If, really, Having set such a precedent, can we also follow suit and embezzle public funds and line our own pockets every now and then? Don't say that the temporary loan will be repaid, it is a blank check with no deadline! Therefore, I, Beichen, also wish to Remonstrate with death!"
"Hiss! You dare to join forces and threaten me?"
Hearing this, Feng Ling was shocked. He didn't just think Beichen Sword Saint's words made sense.
More importantly, Fengling found that Beichen seemed to be a different person at this moment: Why didn't Beichen be so eloquent before?
Could it be... that he was led astray by the Night Ghost King?
"Ha! Luo Li, both of them are seeking death, and now you are the only one who has not expressed his stance!"
Feng Ling looked at the Sky Demon Girl who was still standing, and said playfully: "Although your attitude can't influence me to take away the God Stone, I still want to know if you are as ignorant as the two of them!"
"Sorry! I still have enemies alive, and I won't die like them!"
Luo Li breathed out: "But what I want to tell you for them is that the faster the time flows in the world of Qiankun and Zhuanlun, the greater the consumption required for operation, and it can be as little as three or five times a day. One or more God Stones are not enough! The God Stones that enter this treasure house are basically used for practicing in the two realms. This is due to the fact that half of the ghost city residents do not need God Stones to practice. And he donated more than half of the God Stones generated when he broke through the realm for free, in the hope that our Holy City can be proud and proud at the Ten Thousand Sects Competition two years later!"
