And while the people in the Tianhai City Lord's Mansion were stepping up their efforts to make rubbings of the middle-aged man's portraits and pass these portraits to the various guard captains, the middle-aged man had already found a remote place after leaving the dock. place, and then appeared in everyone's sight with a different face again.
This time, what everyone saw was no longer an elegant middle-aged man, but a rugged man.
However, Cheng Yu knew that the city lord's mansion in Tianhai City had been arresting them, and he did not want to stay in Tianhai City any longer. So he left the city like a big man, and then moved away from Tianhai City as quickly as possible.
Cheng Yu had already considered this city as part of his plan.
Therefore, being tolerant now does not mean that he is afraid, but that he does not want to cause trouble for himself. Anyway, the owner of Tianhai City will change hands soon, so he is not in a hurry to take revenge.
When the time comes, Bai Li will naturally take care of them for him.
In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, Cheng Yu continued to show off his appearance as a rugged man.
At this time, Cheng Yu was flying quickly over the mountains and rivers, and his destination was Ningshui City.
Because Ning Wushuang has been worried about her father ever since the incident with the Fang family. It's just that Cheng Yu couldn't take her to find his father because she was poisoned.
But now that the poison in her body has been cured, she has been asking Cheng Yu to take her to see her father.
After all, with her current situation, she might not be able to appear in front of outsiders again for many years. Because throughout the Cultivation Continent, it can be said that there are shadows of the dynasty everywhere.
If others know that she appears next to Cheng Yu, it will really cause trouble for Cheng Yu. I believe the dynasty will soon know that Cheng Yu was the one who destroyed the Fang family in the first place.
Tianhai City is located on the eastern coast of the Cultivation Continent, while Ningshui City is located in the north-central part. Even at Cheng Yu's current speed, it would take a month to reach Ningshui City.
A month later, Cheng Yu finally appeared in Ningshui City again.
Ningshui City is only a small third-level city, but for Cheng Yu, this city has special meaning. Because this was the first city he entered after entering the world of cultivation.
And he also knew very well that Kunlun was located not far from Ningshui City.
However, at this time, Cheng Yu was not in a hurry to find Kunlun, but headed towards the Lord's Mansion of Ningshui City.
For a small city like Ningshui City, even after so many years, the changes here seem to be very small. As Cheng Yu walked on the street, he felt like he was back to the time he came here.
When he arrived at the city lord's mansion, he was stopped by the guards at the door.
"Please tell City Lord Ning that an old friend is here to visit!" the rough man said, cupping his fists at the guard.
The guard glanced at the rough man, but his face was full of suspicion. He thought how could his city lord know such a rough man?
But seeing how polite the big man was, he finally suppressed his suspicion and turned around and entered the city lord's mansion. Not long after, he came back, and at the same time, there was a man who looked like a butler with him.
"Are you the city lord's old friend?" The housekeeper was obviously stunned when he saw the big man, thinking how could such a person know the city lord.
"Exactly!" The big man nodded.
"Come in with me!" The housekeeper didn't ask any more questions. Although he didn't want to, the city lord had already spoken and he didn't dare to disobey.
Although it was not the first time he came to Ningshui City, it was the first time Cheng Yu entered the Ningshui City Lord's Mansion.
The mansion is not small, and there are many pavilions and lofts inside. It looks like a quite beautiful place.
Under the leadership of the housekeeper, Cheng Yu was taken outside a room.
"The city lord is inside, you go in!" After the housekeeper said that, he turned and left.
With Cheng Yu's current strength, there is nothing to be afraid of in Ningshui City. He also didn't believe that the housekeeper had the courage to harm him.
When he opened the door and walked in, he saw a middle-aged man sitting next to a coffee table. Judging from the face of the middle-aged man, he does have some similarities with Ning Wushuang.
However, this middle-aged man looked indescribably haggard.
Cheng Yu knew that this was Ning Wuji, the lord of Ningshui City.
When he saw the big man, Ning Wuji was filled with doubts. He doesn't remember any of his old friends, and his current situation is a bit awkward.
Ever since his daughter married into the Fang family in Fangye City, he has been watched by the Fang family. However, later I heard that the Fang family was killed on the day of her daughter’s wedding.
When he first heard the news, he couldn't believe it. The Fang family is a family supported by the dynasty. Who dares to be so bold as to destroy the Fang family on the day of their wedding?
However, what worried him was that his daughter was also taken away by the person who destroyed the Fang family that day.
However, after asking around later, it seemed that those people came specifically to save his daughter. This made him feel relieved, but he heard another piece of news that made him desperate.
Although his daughter was rescued by those mysterious men in black robes, she was poisoned by Fang Qingping's poisonous Thousand Flowers Soul-eating Incense.
At first, he didn't quite understand what kind of poison it was, but later he tried his best to inquire and found out that the Thousand Flowers Soul-eating Incense was actually a poison refined by the Poison Immortal.
Getting this news was like a bolt from the blue.
Although he is the lord of a city, he doesn't know much about the dynasty. Naturally, he didn't know that Poison Immortal was the Poison Elder of the dynasty, but he knew the name Poison Immortal.
Because the Poison Immortal is famous for his poison, what is even more memorable is that this Poison Immortal not only refines poisons and never eliminates them, but also refines antidotes. At the same time, he only kills people, never saves them.
But his daughter was poisoned by the Poison Immortal, which was basically a death sentence for his daughter. Who in the world can cure the poison of Poison Immortal?
At least he hadn't heard of it yet, and his heart was filled with despair.
Now, nearly a year has passed since his daughter was poisoned and rescued. There is still no news about his daughter. He thinks that his daughter is probably no longer alive.
As a father, he didn't even know whether his daughter was alive or dead. No one could understand the pain in his heart.
What's even more hateful is that because the Fang family was destroyed, he was also targeted by the dynasty. And those old friends of the city lord also knew that the dynasty would not let them go in Ningshui City so easily after hearing about their daughter and the Fang family, so in this year, not a single friend came to comfort them.
But at this time, there was such a rough man who said he was his old friend. This was the first time in this year that someone came to see him.
"You are my old friend? Forgive me for my blindness, but I really didn't recognize the master you are?" Ning Wuji looked at the big man and asked with confusion.
