"City Lord!"
No one expected that Gu Qingyuan would kill someone at this time, and they could have left unharmed.
Looking at the team leaving in front, the deputy city lord motioned for everyone to be quiet.
Gu Qingyuan belongs to Lu Feng, which means he was killed by Lu Feng. It is not difficult for the young marquis to kill a city lord.
He observed the dead people on the city wall with unclear eyes, and said to the attendant:
"Let's just say that the city lord was retaliated and died on the city wall."
Now that the city gate is closed, the people don't know what happened. Today's incident gave him an opportunity, so he will also help Lu Feng in whatever he does.
"this……"
"You still won't do as I say?"
"yes!"
There were many soldiers who saw this scene, but none of them were smart enough to spread the news.
Now they didn't get half the benefit from what the city lord did, so there was no need to be so conscientious.
"From today on, I am the city lord!"
He stood on the city wall and stroked each brick on the wall.
It is not easy to be promoted in the border area. I will thank the city lord on his grave.
In the field of vision, the group of people began to speed up.
Gu Qingyuan just relied on his ears to determine the opponent's position, put away the crossbow, and Tian Xin next to him took it.
"You guys are looking at me. Didn't you expect that I am still a Martial Master?"
Wu Zong's strength is not enough to shoot through that head.
And Gu Qingyuan was indeed right, but in this way, they would have six martial masters.
"I didn't expect General Gu to be here and never waste his cultivation."
One of them, Wu Zundao.
They had heard of Gu Qingyuan, a man who had accomplished extraordinary feats many times, but it had always been through strategy rather than force.
Now it seems that there may be some forces there.
"It's just a broken body."
Gu Qingyuan smiled.
He was not in good health either. After riding for a while, he got into the carriage.
There was a cup of hot tea on the opposite side of the carriage's inland seal. Gu Qingyuan smiled and sat over it.
"Thank you, Mr. Marquis."
If they have grievances, they must have an outlet to vent their grievances.
If there was no such opening, Lu Feng would create one.
"Are you happy now?"
Lu Feng raised his eyes to look at him.
"Yes, I have avenged them."
He has already tasted the feeling of losing his brother enough here. Gu Qingyuan only looks okay on the surface.
"As long as you're satisfied."
Lu Feng nodded.
"I already said hello to General Qin last time. It depends on his opinion whether he will arrange for his own people to go up after these people die."
"Tell me, will he do it?"
After staying at the border for so many years, Gu Qingyuan should know better.
"Who wouldn't like having power in their own hands?"
The mist rose in the tea cup in his hand, covering Gu Qingyuan's indifferent eyebrows.
Who can say for sure that the so-called loyalty lasts a lifetime? If it is not kept intact, people will be gone.
Lu Feng nodded thoughtfully and agreed.
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved."
…
In the military tent.
"Gu Qingyuan shot the man to death with an arrow. This matter was concealed, but it probably won't be concealed for long. Does the general want someone else to be the city lord?"
The subordinate looked at Qin Mu and suggested.
"Need not."
Qin Mu turned his back to him, looking at the chessboard full of black chess pieces.
That person was originally arranged by him. Qin Mu had already prepared people to take over around these city lords or generals.
Just waiting for an opportunity.
This matter was not what Qin Mu wanted, but if he had not taken any action, those people would no longer take his words seriously.
To make good use of a knife, you must also treat the whetstone well.
Qin Mu closed his eyes, he was afraid that he would become the second Lu Qingtian.
"General, there is no need to worry so much. I see that the young Marquis is not a random person. He has some escape routes in his work."
If we really want to cause chaos on this border, we can't just kill those eighteen people.
Qin Mu also knew that what Lu Feng said before might not mean this.
"Okay, you go down. If someone goes out without authorization, let them go as long as the number of people does not exceed a hundred."
Now Qin Mu is still Qin Mu who only cares about the security of the border. He doesn't interfere much in these matters.
But if someone crosses his bottom line under his nose, Qin Mu will not be kind to them.
"yes!"
As the sun went down, some people who couldn't help but see the situation clearly began to take action.
At night, several teams of people from the surrounding cities sent out to surround and kill Lu Feng. They had a relationship with the dead city lord, and no one knew whether the other party had betrayed him.
It's just that those girls were let go, so it's hard to say that Lu Feng didn't know about these things.
It is better to kill by mistake than to let go!
But they thought wrong. Those martial arts masters could not survive a few rounds under the hands of martial masters, let alone warriors.
Most of the Martial Masters are only at the first level, and it is not easy for them to rise from the Martial Sect.
The blood is destined to become a decoration on Lu Feng's road tonight, and Lu Feng can rest while they have someone to worry about.
Seeing that Si Yu and Lu Feng seemed to have little secrets that they didn't know about along the way, Tian Xin's heart for gossip was ready to start.
I remember that I was also a handsome and good-looking man back then, and of course he is not that bad now.
He could tell at a glance that Si Yu must like their little marquis, and the young marquis also had feelings for this little girl Si Yu!
hey-hey.
Look, they are even giving people food.
Tian Xin watched it with great interest.
In fact, Si Yu just finished all the food, and Lu Feng just hadn't finished yet.
She is not the master of these people, and she is not taken care of so thoughtfully when it comes to food.
Knowing that the two of them were going to talk, other people wouldn't go out of their way to listen, as if they were blind.
"So there is a barrier at the easternmost edge of Fengling Continent?"
Lu Feng felt something was wrong.
Si Yu nodded.
Everyone in her area knew about these things, so there was no harm in telling Lu Feng.
"Tens of millions of years ago, perhaps even longer, some spiritual veins were completely cut off due to the struggle of everyone, and the spiritual energy of the Wind Spirit Continent became increasingly depleted."
As the name suggests, spiritual veins are the place where spiritual energy breeds.
"They gradually realized that if this continues, there will be no way out for everyone."
"So several top monks joined forces to set up this barrier, split the damaged spiritual veins and absorb the remaining spiritual energy to transfer to the other half of the continent."
Those spiritual veins are close to withering, and the remaining spiritual energy has been sucked away. One can imagine how much spiritual energy is left in the Wind Spirit Continent where Lu Feng is located?
Everyone wants to live, but someone always has to make sacrifices.
Most people in this half of the continent didn't know the news. They had been abandoned, and those who could have practiced spiritual energy all turned gray overnight.
Maybe because there is no hope, or maybe because you feel that you can't do anything, many things about spiritual energy have been damaged.
Instead of pursuing what you can't get, it's better to die peacefully.
Even if some people have seen ancient books on spiritual energy cultivation, they will not believe it after trying it. They will only regard it as the imagination of a madman or the trick of a storyteller to attract people.
