The City Lord's Mansion is not far from here.
Looking at the city lord on the high seat, Yan Yun was in a daze.
The person in the hall who said they stole things was still the same man just now. Yan Yun was curious as to what they "stole" so that they could alert the city lord.
"She is the Lord of the City. As soon as I found Ren's exquisite ring, I prepared to send it over, but I didn't expect that it was accidentally placed in the pile of junk."
"After I found out that I had lost it, I planned to go back and get it. Unexpectedly, those people refused to admit it. I suspected that it was her will."
The man's face was full of indignation and he pointed directly at Yan Yun.
Yan Yun frowned slightly, what is the seal?
Lian Heng was a little confused, what is the situation now? Why was he suddenly arrested and questioned?
"Are you the girl who recently opened a recycling shop? Do you know the rules of our Qilian City? Theft will lead to imprisonment."
The prison mentioned here is not a simple prison. Those who cultivate immortality will lose all their spiritual power after entering it, just like ordinary people.
The city lord is a Yuanying monk with a Chinese character and a goatee. He looks at Yan Yun below with a straight face. These outsiders have a lot to do!
"Host, congratulations on triggering an interesting mission. The mission is to pluck off his beard, remember not to leave any of it. The reward is that the Luminous Cup can be upgraded to a third-grade top-level spiritual weapon. The collected spiritual liquid can be used by you at this stage. Restore one-third of the spiritual energy."
Duocai's voice is bouncy and lively, and the host will definitely like this reward.
Yan Yun:...Pull it off? Not a single strand left?
"Yes, is this difficult?"
Yan Yun: What do you think?
Yan Yun looked at her hand, then at the city lord's goatee, thinking whether her hand would break off first or her head would fall off first.
"Ahem..."
Seeing that she was absent-minded, the Lord of Qilian City coughed a few times in dissatisfaction, slightly releasing the pressure of the Nascent Soul cultivator.
He suddenly got angry, and Yan Yun felt that her body felt a little heavier for a moment, and she was still a little out of breath. Looking at the two people around her, she was still fine.
Lian Heng was almost leaning on her, and she hurriedly stretched out her hand to transfer spiritual power into his body to make him feel better.
Not to mention the man who framed them, he collapsed on the ground.
The expressions of the guards on both sides remained unchanged, as they were only targeting the three of them.
"Sir, please spare my life, the little one can't bear it anymore."
The man begged for mercy in embarrassment, how could this happen? He obviously didn't do anything.
Not long after, the guard captain Ren mentioned by the man came back and escorted Lu Li and her three clerks over.
"Lord City Lord, my exquisite ring was indeed found in this person's shop. Please deal with these thieves in accordance with the rules!"
Captain Ren glanced at Yan Yun with a look of justice on his face.
Lu Li's face turned slightly pale. The four of them didn't even see the shadow of the Linglong Ring. The so-called Captain Ren didn't know where to find it.
He also insisted that he found them in their shop and arrested them all indiscriminately.
Seeing this, Yan Yun instantly realized that the guard captain was probably in the same group with the man, as well as the middle-aged monk.
Lu Li wanted to walk to Yan Yun, but was roughly stopped by a group of guards. He took a few steps back slightly panicked, but did not forget to comfort the several shop assistants behind him.
"Lord City Lord, I also want to sue this person for trying to steal the goods from our recycling shop."
"Our store clerk will return it to the warehouse after checking it. I don't know where you found it, or if you call the thief, catch the thief."
Yan Yun turned back to being a guest, turned around and cupped his hands to the people on the stage, "Please be careful, sir."
"You're a bunch of junk and I'm going to steal something from you!"
Captain Ren felt insulted and said, "Lord City Lord, my subordinate found it under the counter."
"Who knows if one of your clerks stole it and hid it."
"We didn't!" Xiao Yuan and the other three were worried. The shopkeeper and the boss treated them so well, how could they steal things?
"It's impossible for my clerk to steal your things. Your exquisite ring has been recognized as the owner, so why should we steal it?"
Yan Yun's words made the three of them feel at ease, "I seriously suspect that this person framed us deliberately. Please be careful."
"So what if I recognize my master? Sir, I heard that there is a magic method that can remove the marks on the ring. There are a lot of things from our Qilian City in my exquisite ring. The origin of the three of them is unknown, and their intentions must be different!"
Captain Ren sneered, raised his hands and looked at the Lord of Qilian City.
"There is no magic that can remove the mark. You mean we want to kill you, right?"
Lian Heng's mind was confused after hearing this, but no matter how stupid he was, he understood that these people were working together to build their shop, and he immediately became angry.
"You are a golden elixir cultivator, we are all small Qi practitioners, and there is an ordinary person, how can you eliminate the mark?"
Lu Li whispered, but everyone present could hear him clearly.
"You both have your own reasons, but it's hard to judge."
The lord of Qilian City was in a dilemma. In terms of selfishness, he would definitely prefer his own people. If the captain of the guard had not claimed that there were things from the city among them, he would not have bothered to care about such a trivial matter.
But in terms of morality, what the little girl told her clerk was right.
"My subordinate has served under you for many years, and it is absolutely impossible for me to frame others."
Ren, the head guard, looked troubled, "It's not a big deal if my subordinate's exquisite ring is lost, but after all, it contains something from Qilian City, and it will inevitably be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives."
"In this case, you should close the store first and wait until the matter is resolved before opening it again." The Lord of Qilian City nodded and looked at Yan Yun and the others.
Although he didn't have a big impression on this guard captain, just because he thought about Qilian City so much, the weight in his heart shifted.
This group of guards took them away in front of everyone. If the store was closed at this time, wouldn't it be true that they had "stealed" things? Then those so-called colleagues don’t know how to arrange it, so who will dare to come in the future.
Yan Yun knows that people's words can be scary, and even if they explain clearly in the future, they will be greatly affected.
"Lian Heng."
She poked Lian Heng's arm and winked at him.
Lian Heng's eyes lit up when he received her signal, he could finally use his great charm technique.
It’s just that you can’t use your true appearance now, as it will affect the effect by 100 million points.
"Did we really steal your stuff?"
Lian Heng looked at Captain Ren with his beautiful eyes. For a moment, Captain Ren's eyes began to blur, but he was a golden elixir after all, and he did not fall quickly.
But before he could say anything, the man just now couldn't hold it anymore. He jumped up and said loudly, "You didn't steal it. We are all accomplices. We framed you on purpose."
How can a beautiful woman be wronged? Thinking like this, he continued to shout, "Guard Captain Ren and I have both received money, we are harming people!"
"Harming people? Why do you want to harm us? We are all so pitiful..."
There was a bit of resentment in Lian Heng's eyes, which made the people in front of him freeze up. He felt that he had made a huge mistake and wished he could tell everything right away.
Damn it! Captain Ren tried hard to control himself and bit his lip tightly, fearing to say something he shouldn't have said.
He had already seen the city lord on the stage looking bad.
"Ask them who received the money." Yan Yun reminded.
"Whose money did you take?"
Lian Heng nodded, but he was a little unhappy because his charm skills were so restricted here!
Those who met him in the form of gods before could not last more than three seconds, although they woke up after three seconds...
"We took money from Shopkeeper Li, and Chief Guard Ren took more!" The man continued to output, "He asked me to come over and sue them, and then asked Chief Guard Ren to check their store. In fact, the Linglong Ring was not lost at all... If you If you don’t believe me, you can ask Shopkeeper Li.”
"Noonono, this is the money I collected. I will never wrong you!"
He threw the storage bag on the ground and stepped on it, looking at Lian Heng with a loyal face.
"Asshole, what are you talking about!"
Guard Captain Ren saw him telling everything and scolded him loudly.
He felt dizzy now, and he reluctantly moved his eyes away from Lian Heng in front of him before he felt better.
"Isn't it? Is your heart made of iron? This fellow Taoist has been wronged by us at first glance, but you still don't know your fault!"
The man didn't know where he got the courage, so he retorted angrily.
