Dongshan County.
On the city wall, Liang Heng's figure looked quite lonely and desolate under the moonlight.
"Xuan'er..."
From day to night, Liang Xuan did not return. Liang Heng was heartbroken. He felt that his daughter would never come back.
But even so, he was still waiting at the top of the city.
He had already thought about it. If Liang Xuan didn't show up until dawn, he would kill himself with a sword on top of the city!
This was not only his explanation to Tie Xiao, but also his guilt for his daughter.
"唳——"
Suddenly, a chirping sound came from afar.
Liang Heng's eyes were shocked and he cried with joy!
"Xuan'er must be back! Xuan'er must be back!"
"Open the formation gate!"
Buzz!
The formation gate opened, and soon, a black shadow passed through the air and flew into the county city.
"Xuan'er!"
"Father!"
Liang Xuan fell onto the city wall and fell into Liang Heng's arms. She had been holding on, but she was already extremely weak.
"Father...Father, Xuan'er succeeded. The devil has already promised that he will not embarrass his father anymore, but the amount of yuan stones he asked for has increased from 10 million to 20 million. He also asked his father to raise them overnight. Tomorrow In the morning, my daughter will deliver it in person...send it there..."
Liang Xuan held her breath and was so weak that she finished what she was about to say and then passed out.
"Xuan'er! Xuan'er!" Liang Heng choked and shouted, two lines of tears dripping down his face.
Looking at the wound on Liang Xuan's forehead, he could imagine how much Liang Xuan had paid and endured in order to save his life!
"Xuan'er, it's your father who has caused trouble for you. You have a good rest. You have finally fought for your father's chance of survival. Your father will not let you down." Liang Heng blew his nose, hugged Liang Xuan, and headed towards the city lord's palace. Fall.
After sending Liang Xuan back to his room to rest, Liang Heng immediately summoned the worshipers in the city and the clan leaders. Even Song Tielu, who was hugging several beautiful women in his bed, was also called out.
"Everyone, the night is deep, Liang will not talk nonsense. At present, Liang needs 20 million yuan of stones for emergency. The city lord's mansion can only collect 8 million yuan of stones, and the remaining 12 million, please think about it. We can help Liang raise some funds." In the meeting hall, Liang Heng said solemnly.
Hearing this, the expressions of the clan leaders of each clan changed.
Twelve million yuan stones, divided among their various clans, is quite a lot.
"City Master Liang, Li dares to ask, what is the purpose of raising so many stones?" The head of the Li family asked with narrowed eyes.
Liang Heng glanced at him and said: "This matter is confidential. It's better for the Li family master not to know. This city master knows that you will be very aggrieved if you are asked to take this Yuan Stone. But if you don't take it, the consequences will be more serious!"
Everyone's expressions changed again.
Song Tielu's eyes flashed slightly. Although he guessed the role of the twenty million yuan stone, he didn't know about Liang Xuan's trip to Feiyu Mountain again.
He guessed that Liang Heng called him here to use his status as the imperial envoy to frighten these family heads when necessary.
Song Tielu didn't make a sound, just sat quietly, mentally agreeing with Liang Heng's approach.
It would be best if the royal family's intention of wooing the demon cultivators is not revealed.
In this kind of thing, anyone who knows the secret will probably not live long.
Liang Heng seemed domineering, but in fact he was protecting these family heads.
After a short silence, an old man with a white beard stroked his beard and said with a smile: "I, the Luo family, are more trustworthy than City Master Liang. Of the twelve million yuan of stones, I, the Luo family, are willing to give out one million."
Liang Heng's expression relaxed, and he cupped his hands towards the old man and said, "Thank you, Patriarch Luo. Liang will bear this kindness and trust in his heart."
"City Master Liang is too polite." Patriarch Luo smiled and stopped talking. He just glanced at the others with his smiling eyes.
The Luo family has expressed its stance. Even if the other families are reluctant, they know that the blood must be shed today. One by one they spoke up and claimed a sum of yuan stones.
The last dozen or so families came up with a total of 16 million yuan stones, which was 4 million more than the amount Liang Heng had set.
Liang Heng was not polite and accepted them all.
Before dawn the next day, Liang Xuan woke up with a start.
"What time is it?"
"Miss, we have just arrived at Mao Shi." The maid who was waiting to take care of Liang Xuan said hurriedly.
Liang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, nothing was delayed."
She stood up in a hurry, and the maid hurriedly said: "Miss, your injury is not healed yet..."
"It's okay, just dress for me!"
After a cup of tea, Liang Xuan hurried to the main courtyard. Just as he asked to see him, he saw Liang Heng walking out of the courtyard.
"Father, have you gathered all the Yuan Stones?" Liang Xuan asked hurriedly.
If she couldn't get the twenty million yuan together, her efforts yesterday would be in vain.
Liang Heng glanced at Liang Xuan distressedly and sighed softly: "You haven't slept all night, okay?"
Liang Xuan shook her head and said: "It's okay. After today, Xuan'er can have a good night's sleep. Father, Yuan Shi..."
Before Liang Xuan could ask any more questions, Liang Heng stretched out his right hand, with a high-level Xuan Kong Ring in his palm.
"It's all together. However, this time, my father will go with you to see the devil." Liang Heng said.
Liang Xuan's face changed slightly and she said: "Father doesn't need to go in person, just leave this matter to Xuan'er. If the devil sees father and changes his mind and becomes murderous, then we will lose both our lives and wealth." .”
Liang Heng shook his head and said: "That Tie Xiao is also a person, and he should not go back on his word. I have something else to say when I see him as a father."
When Liang Xuan saw this, she knew she couldn't persuade him, so she had no choice but to agree: "Father insists on going, so Xuan'er has no choice but to obey."
"Ha, don't worry." Liang Heng smiled and patted Liang Xuan's shoulder.
After a while, two blue cloud eagles flew out of the county town.
Feiyu Mountain.
Xiaobi, who was being watched by Tie Xiao, saw two eagle figures flying in the air. She quickly ran into the formation and said happily to Tie Xiao: "Your Majesty, Liang Xuan kept her promise and rode the big eagle. You must keep your promise and stop embarrassing her."
"Are you teaching me how to do things?" Tie Xiao narrowed his eyes.
Xiao Bi's face turned pale and she hurriedly said, "Xiao Bi doesn't dare."
"You are very brave, how can you not dare." Tie Xiao curled his lips and stood up.
Xiao Bi was about to go out with her when Tie Xiao turned to glare at her: "It's almost dawn, have you made breakfast?"
"I...haven't I been staring at the sky? I'm going to do it now." Xiaobi said depressedly and had to make breakfast.
Tie Xiao stepped out of the formation with one step, and with the next step, he appeared directly in the sky and landed in front of Liang Heng and his daughter.
"You are Liang Heng, right? Do you dare to come and see me because you know you don't have to die?" Tie Xiao glanced at Liang Heng and said lightly.
Liang Xuan frowned slightly, but she didn't dare to show it.
Liang Heng was so sophisticated that he would not be easily angered. He bowed his hands and said with a smile, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for letting the past be forgotten for the wrong things Liang has committed before. Liang came here this time, firstly, to thank the Lord in person, and secondly, On the one hand, I also have some suggestions that I would like to share with the Lord."
"Give me some advice?" Tie Xiao smiled, "You just saved your life, so don't you know how to cherish it?"
Liang Xuan's eyes were slightly panicked, and she hurriedly said: "Father, the Lord has put his past grievances in the past, so let's..."
Liang Heng shook his head and said, "Xuan'er, there are some things that a father must say."
