"It doesn't matter who we are, what's important is that you... can go and die." Zhang Liucheng looked at the old man from top to bottom. The old man had a sinister look, a monkey face, and a sinister smile on his face. , when his two eyes were staring at each person in turn, he didn't have to guess, this person must be a villain. "Xiaoqiang, go kill him."
"Okay!" Xiaoqiang said with a smile upon hearing this.
"Brother, I'm going too." The little bastard said.
"I am coming too!"
"..."
"Is punishing evil and promoting good so popular now?" Zhang Liucheng frowned when he heard this: "You all can go."
As soon as these words came out, five figures flashed, and the five people, namely Poor Boy, Little Bastard, White Tiger, Will-o'-Wisp, and Xiaoqiang, surrounded the old man in gray robe.
"I will kill a bad old man, and you will come to join in the fun." Xiaoqiang curled his lips and said.
"Brother Qiang, when you finish beating me, I'll beat you again." The poor boy tilted his head and grinned.
"A few brats just want to kill me? How ridiculous!" Hearing this, the gray-robed old man's cheeks twitched violently, and he was extremely angry. He was also the deputy city lord after all, but he didn't expect that these brats didn't do it. He took it seriously. "This is the first time in so many years that I have seen someone dare to be arrogant in front of me. No matter who you are, anyone who dares to take action against me will be killed by me."
As soon as he finished speaking, he exuded murderous intent.
"A bad old man from the Void Realm dares to act rampant in front of me. He is simply looking for death!" Hearing this, Xiaoqiang showed a disdainful smile on his face, and then punched the gray-robed old man.
When the poor boy and others saw this, they punched the gray-robed old man at the same time.
Just hearing a loud "boom", the old man in gray robe showed a look of disbelief on his face, and then the old man's body exploded directly.
At this time, the red-armored guards who came from all directions saw the scene in front of them. They seemed to have been restrained. They stood there, stunned, as if they had lost consciousness.
"Ah... the deputy city lord is dead, hurry up! Go and report to the city lord." Someone shouted.
"Hurry and report, we will wait here for him to come." Zhang Liucheng flashed and appeared in front of a group of red armored guards and said calmly.
As soon as these words were spoken, all the red armored guards left one after another.
In less than half a stick of incense, two figures descended from the sky and landed on the ground, splashing dust all over the ground.
The visitors were naturally Xia Changsheng and Tang Jiuling.
Seeing these people, Tang Jiuling was stunned for a moment, then became furious: "You bastard! What do you want to do?"
These people were clearly monks from the Spiritual Beast Sect, and the leader was none other than Zhang Liucheng.
Hearing this, Zhang Liucheng had no expression on his face and said coldly: "I would like to ask the City Lord, what do you want to do?"
"Boy, I admit that you are very strong, but my strength is not what you can imagine!" After hearing Zhang Liucheng's words, Tang Jiuling's eyes burst with murderous intent, and he waved his sleeves and said: "I advise you, young man Don't be so arrogant, sometimes being too arrogant is not a good thing. Not only will it make people annoying, but you will also pay a heavy price for your arrogance!"
"Oh." A sneer flashed across Zhang Liucheng's face: "Then let me remind you that there is a world outside the sky, and there are people outside the world!"
"You'd better find out the whole story first, otherwise, I will make your life worse than death!"
Life is worse than death?
These four words made Tang Jiuling extremely angry in an instant, with a ferocious look on his face. In the Great Xia Empire, especially in the North City, no one dared to do anything to him. Even the Territory Lord Xia Changsheng also wanted to give him three points of face, but now, this kid was talking nonsense, threatening to make his life worse than death.
"A mere monk in the Yuan Dan realm dares to be presumptuous in front of me. Aren't you afraid of death?"
At this time, Xia Changsheng patted Tang Jiuling on the shoulder and said, "Jiuling, please stay calm for now. It won't be too late to take action after we find out the whole story."
After hearing this, Tang Jiuling's face gradually calmed down.
Hearing Xia Changsheng's words, Zhang Liucheng nodded. He thought this Territory Lord was pretty good, much better than the Beicheng City Lord. Then he yelled: "Bring me up here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiaoqiang and others escorted several big men in black forward.
Tang Jiuling held his head high, looking down at the big man in black who was being escorted up.
"Explain it to me honestly and clearly. Don't think that with the support of the city lord, I won't dare to kill you!" Xiaoqiang ordered a big man in black.
"Senior, don't worry. I will tell you everything I know and tell you everything!" After hearing this, the big man in black immediately shed a drop of cold sweat from his forehead and knelt on the ground shivering.
"Everything was done by the deputy city lord. He asked us to look for low-cultivation monks in the city, kill them, and take away their treasures." Then he said tremblingly.
"How many people have you killed in total?" Upon hearing this, Zhang Liucheng asked angrily towards the big man in black.
Hearing Zhang Liucheng's words, the big man in black trembled and knelt in front of Tang Jiuling. He opened his mouth and his eyes suddenly widened with panic: "We have killed a total of more than ten thousand people... Monk."
"Well, Tang Jiuling, you allow your subordinates to kill so many monks. It's really lawless." Hearing this, Xia Changsheng trembled all over, and then said angrily. He never expected that Tang Jiuling's subordinates would brutally kill so many monks. Although these monks were at the bottom of the world of immortality, with low strength and shallow knowledge, they were also the hope of the human race.
"Senior Xia, please forgive me, please allow me to explain!" Hearing this, Tang Jiuling was frightened and immediately knelt down in front of Xia Changsheng with a plop: "All of this is the deputy city lord's own initiative, and my subordinates don't know the inside story."
"These things have nothing to do with me. I would like to ask Senior Xia to investigate carefully."
Tang Jiuling directly put aside all relations.
"If a word of ignorance can make people forgive your mistakes, then I will kill you and tell the Territory Lord that I don't know. I didn't mean it. Let's see what the Territory Lord says?" Zhang Liucheng's face darkened when he saw this. He would not give up on someone who would only shirk responsibility.
"I really don't know." Zhang Liucheng's reluctance made Tang Jiuling feel a little dissatisfied, but he still held it back, almost pleading.
"Sect Master Jin, how do you think this matter should be resolved?" Xia Changsheng asked Sect Leader Jin. He wanted to favor Tang Jiuling. After all, there were not many monks in the Gathering Realm of the entire Daxia Empire. If you kill one, you will lose one. If Tang Jiuling is killed and the war between humans and demons begins, how can he compete with the demons? Therefore, he could only leave the decision-making power to the hands of Sect Master Jin. He believed that Sect Master Jin was the one who had the overall situation in mind.
But what Sect Master Jin said made Xia Changsheng stunned.
"Young Sect Master, it's up to you to make the decision on this matter!" Sect Master Jin glanced at Xia Changsheng, turned around and said, "Just do what you say, I will definitely support you as my master!"
