Zhang Zhong's eyes flashed, his mind became a bit clearer, and he asked the guard: "What happened, tell me the details?"
The guard looked at Qi Wei and the others, and said: "Commander, are you sure you want to say it here?"
Zhang Zhong understood the meaning behind his words, and said to Qi Wei and the others: "Wait a moment, I will be back shortly." As he spoke, he led the guards to the door.
Zhang Zhong raised his right hand, laid down a soundproofing array, and asked: "What happened?"
The guard did not waste any words and quickly replied, "Reporting to Commander, Shopkeeper Han's men and family are walking towards the west gate. If they guessed correctly, they should be leaving Xianyi City. Milord, should we capture them and imprison them for some unwarranted crime? "
Zhang Zhong was silent for a bit, then waved his hand: "It's fine, I don't really care about these people, I can already feel their cultivation, they are all in the Worldly Immortal Stage. Besides, I only want to kill Shopkeeper Han, there's no need to kill everyone else. "If we alarm the mayor, we will all be punished …"
The guards were obviously Zhang Zhong's trusted aides, and they would do whatever Zhang Zhong wanted to think of doing. They continued to speak, "Lord Commander, if these people leave, then they would come to take revenge on us. At that time …"
Zhang Zhong did not wait for him to finish speaking, and said: "Don't worry! No matter how bold they are, they would not dare to fight inside the Xianyi City. "
The guard nodded and said, "This subordinate understands." After speaking, he left.
Zhang Zhong kept the soundproofing array and turned around to walk into the room. When he entered, he smiled and said: "There's nothing important, let's continue drinking!"
Furthermore, on Han Yan's side, he was pressed into the prison and happened to pass City Lord's Mansion.
Inside the residence, a lady walked out. The lady was none other than the Zhao Zhiruo that they met a while ago.
Zhao Zhiruo recognized Han Yan with a single glance, her eyes flashed as she said to the few guards who were escorting Han Yan: "All of you, stand still."
The few guards stopped and at the same time, cupped their fists towards Zhao Zhiruo: "First Miss, is there anything?"
Zhao Zhiruo glanced at Han Yan, then looked at another guard and asked: "What exactly happened? Why did you tie him up?"
The guard explained what had happened and continued, "Eldest Miss, this is how things are. If there is nothing else, we will leave first."
Zhao Zhiruo stepped in front of everyone and said with a smile: "I was wondering what kind of major event it was, release him now. I'll go tell Big Brother about it later."
Zhang Zhong was the foster son of City Lord Zhao Tianqi. Because he had grown up with Zhao Zhiruo, Zhao Zhiruo had always called him Big Brother.
The guard was obviously not afraid of Zhao Zhiruo, and shook his head: "Eldest Miss, that won't do. The Lord Commander has said that he must be taken to jail. "
Hearing that, Zhao Zhiruo's face sank, and said unhappily: You guys aren't even going to listen to my words?
The guard who spoke earlier was called Zhang Qing, he was also one of Zhang Zhong's trusted aides and immediately said: "First Miss, it is not that we do not listen to your words, but this matter is extremely important, I hope First Miss does not make things difficult for this subordinate."
Zhao Zhiruo frowned, then immediately thought of something and said to Zhang Qing: "Since it's like this, I won't make things difficult for you guys, I can at least have a chat with him!"
Zhang Qing thought about it and said, "No …"
Zhao Zhiruo did not wait for him to finish speaking and snorted coldly, then said angrily: "This will not do, and not then. Do you want me to invite father over now?"
No matter how bold Zhang Qing was, he did not dare to go overboard. He nodded and said, "Alright then!"
Zhao Zhiruo pulled Han Yan to the side, and did not release the agate on his body. Instead, he set up a soundproofing array and said: "Fellow Daoist, you must have been tricked by someone!"
Han Yan laughed bitterly and said: "As long as you have some brains, you will be able to see that I have been tricked …"
Zhao Zhiruo smiled slightly, giving Han Yan a look that he did not need to worry, and said: "For you to be able to refine so many Immortal Energy Pill in such a short period of time, it seems your refining skills are not bad. The first time I saw you, I felt that you were extraordinary. Merely, this matter is a bit troublesome, and it would not be good for me to help you. "
Han Yan already had a detailed plan, he didn't need Zhao Zhiruo's help at all, and said: "Since Big Miss is in a difficult situation, don't help me, and furthermore, Commander Zhang will not do anything to me."
Zhao Zhiruo shook his head and said: "You don't know what kind of person Big Brother is. If he framed someone, it would be very difficult for that person to live until tomorrow. "If my guess is right, he will make a move on you tonight. If you want to live, there is only one way left. I don't know if you will listen or not."
Han Yan also wanted to know what method Zhao Zhiruo was talking about, so he said: "Please speak …"
A flush appeared on Zhao Zhiruo's beautiful face, but she quickly lowered her head and said: "If you tell Zhang Zhong that you're my fiance, he won't dare to kill you." After saying that, she paused for a moment before continuing, "If you agree, I'll go back and tell father to help us. That way, you can keep your life. What do you think?"
Han Yan's heart tightened, he suddenly had a bad premonition, and said: "Isn't it good for us to be like this?"
Zhao Zhiruo stared into Han Yan's eyes, and said: "Han Yan, the first time I saw you, I started to like you. I genuinely wanted to be with you …"
How intelligent was Han Yan, she could immediately tell that he was lying with a glance, especially when it came to the topic of love, she could tell the truth from his eyes. At this moment, Zhao Zhiruo's eyes looked to be filled with gentleness, but the depth of his eyes revealed a hint of satisfaction. It was obvious that the reason he was speaking to Han Yan was not from the bottom of his heart.
Han Yan was too lazy to think about what Zhao Zhiruo's goal was, so he nodded and said: "Alright, I promise you …"
Zhao Zhiruo's eyes flashed with surprise, and he immediately said: "Alright, then I'll let you down for now. "After you head to the prison, I'll bring someone to find you soon. I won't let you wait too long …" With that, she looked deeply at Han Yan, kept her soundproofing array and said to Zhang Qing: "Alright, you guys bring him along!"
Zhang Qing's eyes were filled with confusion, but he did not say anything. He brought Han Yan to walk towards the nearby prison.
Looking at Han Yan's departing figure, the corner of Zhao Zhiruo's mouth curled into a faint smile. He thought to himself, "Han Yan, you really couldn't find any place to get your hands on such broken iron shoes. Initially, I was still considering whether I should attack you. Since you've come to me of your own volition, I can't blame anyone else. "
At this moment, two people were seated in the great hall of City Lord's Mansion.
In the middle seat, there was an old man with white hair. He looked to be in his seventies, with long silvery-white hair that fell to his back. The old man wore a yellow long robe. Although his face was filled with wrinkles, his eyes were bright and full of life. He was none other than the master of the Xianyi City, Zhao Tianqi, who had reached the Immortal King Realm.
On the first seat in the first row on the left was a middle-aged man. If Earth Dragon was here, he would definitely be able to recognize this person. He was the Earth Dragon's enemy, Murong Gang. At this moment, Murong Gang put down the teacup in his hand, and said seriously: "City Lord, what I said just now, you must think carefully, you can only have this one chance."
Zhao Tianqi gave a slight smile and reminded: "You kept saying that you wanted me to submit to the Immortal Emperor, but didn't say anything good."
Murong Gang's eyes flashed, then laughed out loud, and said: "City Lord, we will not speak of the truth, I will speak of the truth! On the surface, it seems like you have to submit to the Immortal Emperor, but in reality, it's not like that. Nine-wheel Immortal King is my master, he has a strong army now and countless experts. It won't be long before he becomes the Eighth Immortal Lord. "
As he spoke till here, Murong Gang paused for a while, before continuing, "As long as he becomes the Eighth Immortal, even the Immortal Emperor will be unable to do anything to him. At that time, not only would Brother Tian Qi be able to obtain countless treasures, but he would also be the City Lord of Xianyi City. Brother Tian Qi, if you still don't believe me, we can get married, how about it? "
Zhao Tianqi thought for a while, then said: "Marriage? "I wonder how this marriage alliance is made?"
Murong Gang stroked the beard on his chin and said slowly: "Just now, I saw my niece's outstanding appearance. I immediately fell in love with her.
Zhao Tianqi laughed, but did not agree, and said: "Let me think about it some more!"
Murong Gang panicked and said: "Brother Tian Qi, what is there to consider? Such a good thing, don't tell me you have any reason to reject it? "
Zhao Tianqi was silent for a while, and then said: "For such a good thing, there is indeed no reason to reject. But when you came, you wanted me to help you capture a person. Although that person came from the boundless universe, he might be able to escape under the Nine-wheel Immortal King's watch and kill the immortals. I do not wish to offend a cultivator who might become extremely powerful just because of this matter. "
Murong Gang was startled, and suspected that he had heard wrongly, and laughed bitterly: "Brother Tian Qi, you're thinking too much! The nonnative cultivator did indeed have some ability, but no matter how strong he was, he was unable to contend against the Nine-wheel Immortal King! Furthermore, the Immortal Emperor also gave the order to kill that man. Do you really think that there are so many strong warriors in the immortal realm that they wouldn't be able to kill a single nonnative cultivator? "
Just as Zhao Tianqi wanted to speak, Zhao Zhiruo suddenly walked in and smiled: "Father, guess who I met when I was out?"
Seeing her daughter walk over by herself, Zhao Tianqi's brows twitched, and he asked: "Didn't I ask you to go find your big brother? Why did you come back alone? "
Zhao Zhiruo nodded towards Murong Gang, which was considered a salute, then said: "Father, because I met that person, I didn't go look for Big Brother …"
Hearing this, Zhao Tianqi became curious, and said: "Stop trying to trick me, who exactly did we meet?"
Zhao Zhiruo smiled slightly, and said: "Han Yan …"
Hearing the two words Han Yan, Zhao Tianqi was startled. Murong Gang stood up excitedly, and asked involuntarily: "Where is he?"
Zhao Tianqi frowned, and immediately asked: "What exactly happened?" He understood his daughter's temperament. If nothing major had happened, he would not be this happy.
Zhao Zhiruo made a bet between Qi Hu and Han Yan, and then, Zhang Zhong framed Han Yan once more, recounting the matter once more. After that, he said, "Senior Murong, when you took out the portrait earlier, I already knew who you were chasing after. Originally, I thought that Han Yan had only come here to buy things and had already left, so I did not say anything.
Murong Gang laughed as he waved his hand, "No worries, no worries …"
Zhao Zhiruo secretly let out a sigh of relief. She was really afraid that Murong Gang would blame her! He continued, "When I was going out earlier, I saw a guard escorting Han Yan. "Although Han Yan changed his appearance, his eyes could not be changed. I recognized him with a single glance. Later on, I used some tricks to make me believe me …" "Then, she recounted her conversation with Han Yan in detail.0
Murong Gang laughed and said excitedly: "I never thought that we would be caught by Zhang Zhong when we kept looking for him." Saying that, he turned to Zhao Tianqi and said, "Brother Tianzi, this is a great merit! Once Immortal Emperor knows about this, he will definitely reward you. And if you follow him at this time, you would also be able to obtain many benefits. "
"Father, just agree!" Zhao Zhiruo was also very happy. The reason she said all this, was because she hoped that her father could become the legitimate City Lord of immortal realm. That way, he would be able to obtain a large amount of immortal stone's salary from the immortal realm's treasury every year. He wouldn't have to live a life like this, where he would have to go hunting everyday and live a precarious life.
Zhao Tianqi let out a long sigh, and said sincerely: "Trash, a bunch of trash! "You have caused me so much trouble …"
