"Are you loyal to the inner court?" Wang Yang looked at Du Cheng and asked.
"Please be clear to me, your Excellency, I am a subordinate of the Inner Dynasty, so naturally I am loyal to the Inner Dynasty!" Du Cheng was afraid that Wang Yang would suspect that he was from the Holy Dynasty, so he killed him on the spot, and immediately expressed his position.
"In that case, tell me the truth, how many Holy Dynasty troops are there in this city?" Seeing what Du Cheng said, Wang Yang continued to ask.
To be honest, although this guy came out to greet them, it's hard to say whether these people are really loyal to the inner court.
After all, given the strength of the Holy Dynasty, if they occupied Meteor City, Du Cheng would have no room to resist.
If Meteor City is now under the control of the Holy Dynasty, they can also pretend to be loyal to the Inner Dynasty and come out to greet them.
But even if he asked this question, he didn't necessarily believe what the other person said.
But no matter whether the other party's answer is true or false, he must first understand it before he can tell whether it is true or false.
"Sir, my Meteor City doesn't have an army from the Holy Dynasty at all. There may not even be people from the Holy Dynasty!" Du Cheng said helplessly.
"There is no army from the Holy Dynasty? There are not even people from the Holy Dynasty? How is this possible? If there are no people from the Holy Dynasty in this city, why did you close the city gate early and open the city defense formation?" The deputy general next to Wang Yang was the first to question.
Because judging from the behavior of Meteor City, it is difficult for them to believe that there are no people from the Holy City in this city.
"Sir, we are really not lying. There is indeed no Holy Dynasty army in this city. As for the activation of the city defense army, we are also afraid of being accidentally injured by your army.
After all, you adults are so powerful, and we are worried that your army will defeat our Meteor City without any hesitation.
So for safety reasons, we will close the city gate and open the city defense formation, but we have no other intention! " Du Cheng said fearfully.
"Really?"
"Indeed!"
"If there is no army of the Holy Dynasty in this city, then what happened to the powerful people of the Holy Dynasty who were trapped here? Is this all fake?" he asked doubtfully.
"That's not true. The Inner Dynasty's army was indeed trapped here at the beginning, but later these people were all taken away by the powerful men of the Holy Dynasty.
So now there should be no people from the holy pilgrimage in the entire Meteor City. " Du Cheng explained.
"Took away by them? No one was left in their army?" After hearing the news, Wang Yang and others were shocked.
If I remember correctly, Guo Yuan's army previously had an army of 30,000 immortals, and there were also tens of thousands of mortal cultivators.
This holy dynasty actually took away Guo Yuan's entire army instead of the few powerful Void Immortals from Guo Yuan?
This is a bit incredible.
"That's not true. There are still some monks who they didn't take away, and they are still in the city. They only took away some people, probably only twenty or thirty thousand!" Du Cheng explained.
"Only 20,000 to 30,000 people were taken away? Are they the strongest 20,000 to 30,000 people?" Wang Yang was surprised, and he probably understood who the other party was talking about.
Those guys from the Holy Dynasty probably took away Guo Yuan's army of immortals.
Because in terms of quantity, Guo Yuan brought an army of thirty thousand immortals.
But people like Du Cheng obviously didn't know that Guo Yuan and the others were immortals. They might have thought that they were just stronger inner court monks.
So they only knew that the holy pilgrimage took away some people, but left some people behind.
In fact, this is indeed the case. Of course Du Cheng and the others don't know that Guo Yuan and the others are immortals.
At that time, they were really confused. Since the powerful men of the Holy Dynasty took away tens of thousands of people, why were there still tens of thousands of people left that they had not taken away?
However, this doubt has not been solved yet, and although Wang Yang and others knew the reason, they could not tell Du Cheng.
"It should be so, because I saw that there are still many monks in the Tribulation Stage who have not been taken away. Moreover, these powerful people in the Tribulation Stage are respectful in front of those people, and their strength cannot be seen!
Presumably they are all very strong. " Du Cheng thought for a while and nodded.
Since Guo Yuan and the others came to Meteor City, the city lord's mansion naturally became Guo Yuan and the others' temporary residence.
Although the city lord was Du Cheng's mansion, he was no different from a servant in the city lord's mansion at that time.
In fact, he wished these people would leave as soon as possible.
So after the powerful men from the Holy Dynasty took those people away, he was actually quite happy.
At least he became the master of the city lord's mansion again, instead of a servant.
However, he did discover many strange things when he was in the City Lord's Mansion.
There are some people whose strength he cannot see through, but their strength is extremely terrifying.
Moreover, he saw many people in the inner court who were also monks in the Tribulation Stage, but they were respectful in front of those people.
He had also asked those who were in the tribulation period, but they were not willing to tell him at all.
Now that I think about it, the tens of thousands of people taken away by the Holy Dynasty seem really extraordinary.
In particular, the incident at Yagami Ridge also reminded him of something. Although Guo Yuan and the others were defeated by the powerful men from the Holy Dynasty, there were rumors that the will of heaven appeared in their battle.
This means that the people taken away by the Holy Dynasty are indeed extraordinary.
Now looking at the expressions of Wang Yang and others, it seems that his guess has been confirmed. The people who were taken away are indeed extraordinary, at least they should be stronger.
It is even possible that all those people have understood the meaning of heaven.
In the past few months, everyone in the city has been talking about this matter.
As the city lord of Meteor City, how could he not know about this?
So now he is basically certain that maybe those people are people who have understood the meaning of heaven.
Only such people will be valued by the Holy Dynasty, and they will be more valuable.
As for other people, they have not understood the meaning of heaven. Even monks in the tribulation stage are worthless in their eyes.
So even if they want to rob someone, they have no interest.
"So, part of those people's army is still trapped in Meteor City?" Wang Yang asked.
"Exactly, they are still in the city now!"
"In this case, why don't they return to the Inner Dynasty? And as the city lord of Meteor City, since you know that there are no people from the Holy Dynasty here, and there are no strong ones from the Inner Dynasty who are trapped.
Why don't you report this matter to the inner court? "The deputy general next to Wang Yang asked Du Cheng.
This guy obviously knew everything, but in the end, this guy remained silent and didn't say anything.
If he had passed the news to the inner court earlier, why would they have gone around in circles for so long and scared themselves half to death?
"Because I dare not!" Du Cheng said bitterly.
