Since losing to Cheng Yu, Qin Yuetian has become much more restrained.
In the past, he always felt that at his age, being able to achieve his current level of strength was not only unique in the world, but there were definitely very few geniuses like him.
Before finding Cheng Yu, although he had heard a lot about Cheng Yu, he still underestimated Cheng Yu and felt that he could not be compared with him.
But after fighting with him, he discovered that the rumors about Cheng Yu were not exaggerated at all. Sometimes he even felt that those rumors were not enough to express Cheng Yu's strength. In fact, Cheng Yu's real strength was even more terrifying than the rumors. .
At least to him now, it was no surprise that Cheng Yu could kill Kunlun's tribulation master.
"Young Master, when we go back this time, we must ask the Holy King to send more experts to bring that boy Cheng Yu back!" said a guard.
"Yes, young master, that boy is too arrogant. The young master sincerely invited him to join our dynasty, and even promised to give him a foreign king, but this boy actually refused. He simply planned to fight with our dynasty. Enemy." Another guard also said.
This time their mission to the secular world has failed. Not only that, even a genius like their always confident young master has been defeated by Cheng Yu.
This really shocked them, but even so, they were not convinced.
Originally, the young master wanted Cheng Yu to join the dynasty and promised to make him a foreign king. They were actually even more unhappy at the time.
After all, if this kid really becomes the foreign king, his status and identity will be much higher than them.
Now this boy is just the head of a small family and he is so arrogant. If he becomes the foreign king, it would be okay. I am afraid that even if they are the confidants of the young master, they will be tortured to death by him in the future.
So to be honest, after Cheng Yu rejected the young master's kindness, they were actually very happy in their hearts.
And in this way, they also have more excuses to retaliate against Cheng Yu.
Of course, they also admire Cheng Yu's courage. He dared to refuse the invitation of the dynasty. Now that he refused, he had basically offended the dynasty.
And no matter what Cheng Yu thought about it, he was actually on the opposite side of the dynasty and became its enemy.
If the Holy Master knew about this, especially if he knew that Cheng Yu was so arrogant, he would definitely send out experts to catch Cheng Yu, and maybe even kill him directly.
After all, Cheng Yu was the one who defeated the young master, which shows that Cheng Yu's strength is indeed very terrifying.
It is absolutely impossible for the Holy Lord to allow such a powerful master who cannot be one of his own to exist. This is definitely a danger to the dynasty.
So after returning, they must report this matter to the Holy King and let the Holy King send experts to kill this guy.
"About this matter, you'd better shut up when you get back. If I know that you dare to talk nonsense in front of the Holy Lord, you will wish yourself well!" Qin Yuetian gave the guards a cold look. , said.
"Young Master, my subordinates don't dare. If the Young Master doesn't let us speak, we will never dare to say anything more. It's just that my subordinates don't understand. Why doesn't the Young Master let the Holy King know about this?" Several guards were killed by Qin Yue. Tian Ling's voice startled him and he said quickly.
"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask. In short, don't say anything about Cheng Yu. I will report it to my father myself!" Qin Yuetian said coldly.
The dynasty's sphere of influence is so large, and he is not the only young master in the dynasty.
There is no young master who does not want to become the next Holy King.
This time his father gave him the task of capturing Cheng Yu, which was also a test for him. But now it seems that he clearly failed this test.
But even if he failed, he didn't want the other young masters to go to the secular world to capture Cheng Yu.
If they succeeded, wouldn't that make them look incompetent?
So he must persuade his father not to send anyone to the secular world anymore. As for the reason, it is very simple. He can just say that the civil strife in the dynasty in the past few years was not caused by Cheng Yu.
Because they really don't have any evidence to prove that Cheng Yu was the main messenger of the foreign war.
"Yes! Young Master, we understand. It's just that the mission assigned to us failed. The Holy King will definitely send people to capture Cheng Yu!" the guard said.
"Hmph, I have my own way!" When Qin Yuetian thought of the battle with Cheng Yu that day, even now he still felt excited.
Perhaps it was because he had never encountered such a talented opponent before, so he couldn't restrain his mood for a while.
If he really wants to arrest Cheng Yu, he will find a way to come in person and will never allow others to interfere in this matter.
"Young Master, look, Kaiyuan City is ahead. Let's go to the city and rest!" A guard pointed to the front and said happily.
Since the battle with Cheng Yu, several of them have been injured to some extent, and even the young master has suffered considerable injuries, which shows how terrifying Cheng Yu is.
But what is puzzling is that when they came to the city gate, they saw a line of people outside the city gate, and the city guards were actually checking people entering the city one by one.
"Young Master, what's going on? When did Kaiyuan City become so strict? They even ask for identity checks when entering the city?" the guard asked curiously.
Generally speaking, no matter whether they are ordinary people or monks, their identities will not be checked when entering the city.
Because few people dare to make trouble in the city, it is undoubtedly a matter of seeking death. Ordinary people don't have that ability, and monks don't have that courage.
They didn't go back the way they came. After finally coming out, they naturally wanted to take a good look.
So this was their first time coming to Kaiyuan City, but regardless of whether it was his first time coming, he believed that no other city would be so strict.
Since it's like this now, something must have happened.
"What happened in the city? Why do you have to check everyone who comes in and out?" A guard stepped forward and asked the guards guarding the city.
"Who are you?" The guard obviously didn't know Qin Yuetian's identity. After all, even their city lord might not have seen someone like the Young Master of the Dynasty, let alone a small person like them.
"What do you think?" The guard showed a token with the word "king" written on it.
"What is this?" The guard obviously didn't recognize what kind of token it was, but it looked pretty powerful.
"If you don't understand, let your city lord come and see for yourself!" the guard said arrogantly.
Although they are just the personal guards around the young master, their identity, status and strength are much higher than that of a small city lord.
Therefore, even for people like them, a small city lord really didn't notice them.
"General, do you recognize this token?" The guard was somewhat discerning. Although he felt that the other party was a bit arrogant, he did not dare to offend him until he understood the situation, so he quickly called his commander over.
"This is... Kaiyuan City City Guard General Fang Guo has met your Excellency. I didn't know that Your Excellency is here. Please forgive me if I have offended you!" The general didn't pay attention at first, but when he took a closer look at the word "王" on it, , his face suddenly changed, he was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground and said tremblingly.
He may not be very clear about the affairs of the dynasty, but he knows that the city lord and all the city gate guards have ordered an important thing, and that is about this token.
If he read it correctly, this should be the "Holy King's Order" that the city lord told them.
Naturally, he didn't understand what the Holy King's Token was or what it meant, but the city lord said that if he saw someone holding such a token, they must be worshiped as their ancestors, and they should be worshiped immediately. Inform him that he will greet you personally.
But today, it is impossible for the city lord to come out to greet them again...
Of course, this was the first time he had seen this legendary token in so many years.
"Assuming you have some insight, my young master is here. Please hurry up and ask your city lords to come out to greet my young master. If you are neglectful in the slightest, you will be responsible for the consequences!" The guard felt a little more comfortable when he saw the guard like this. .
Everyone at the city gate looked at Qin Yuetian and others. They didn't know who these people were, but seeing that even the city gate guards were so frightened, it showed that these people were really not simple.
"This...!" The guard obviously felt a little embarrassed.
"What? Do you, the city lord, think that Kaiyuan City really belongs to him? How dare he not go out of the city to greet my young master when he comes?" The guard couldn't help but become a little angry.
"Sir, please calm down! It's not that our city lord refuses to go out of the city to meet each other, but... it's that he is no longer here!" The guard was so frightened that he was sweating profusely and hurriedly explained.
"No longer? He left the city?" The guard's face looked a little better.
"No, our city lord was killed the day before yesterday!" the guard Fang Guo explained.
"Being killed? Who is so bold? Dare to kill the lord of a city?" The guard was stunned.
Although many people do not understand the existence of the dynasty, everyone knows that there is a powerful force behind the city lord.
Therefore, although the lord of a city is not the strongest in the city, no one dares to offend him.
Now that someone dares to kill the city lord, it simply means that they don't take the power behind the city lord seriously.
"We don't know either. We only know that the murderer is a man in black robes who is very powerful, at least at the Mahayana stage or above!" Fang Guo said.
"Mahayana period? How dare a Mahayana period be so arrogant?" the guard said in surprise.
The strength of the Mahayana period is indeed very strong, but what does a Mahayana period mean in front of the dynasty? It is so arrogant to dare to kill the city lord!
"Sir, we have received news that not only our Kaiyuan City, but also the city lords of several nearby cities have been killed in these days!" Fang Guo continued.
"What?" This time not only the guard, but also Qin Yuetian was surprised!
