C2135 The Reason Why the City Lord Was Replaced
Sure enough, not long after the two teams entered the compass space, the light screen on the compass suddenly disappeared, making it impossible for them to see the scene in the compass space again.
Immediately after, the compass on the ground began to tremble, and cracks gradually appeared on the compass. Blood flowed out from the cracks.
The fake Dark City Lord went up to check the compass with a solemn expression. He frowned, obviously not knowing what was wrong with the compass.
Just as he was about to pick up the compass, the teleportation portal that entered the compass space suddenly appeared. The two teams that had entered the compass space were thrown out of the portal. Of course, they did not come out unscathed, but were minced into meat paste by some kind of sharp weapon. When they were mixed together, the broken limbs on the ground could not be distinguished from which person they belonged.
When the people in the martial arts field saw this scene, they all gasped. It was not that they had never seen a bloody scene, but when they thought that they were actually fighting in such a dangerous space, they felt a lingering fear.
Everyone looked at the fake Dark City's City Lord, because this space belonged to the Dark City's City Lord. In addition, they did not notice Lan Mi's small movements in the compass space, so they subconsciously thought that it was the fake Dark City's City Lord's doing.
The fake Dark City Lord didn't explain the situation to everyone. He still frowned and put the compass into his Cosmos Sack. Then, he turned around and left.
Not long after the fake Dark City Lord left, Lan Mi also left. The people who stayed in the training field were all discussing what had just happened.
Some people guessed that the Dark City Lord probably did not want these candidates to take the position of Dark City Lord and wanted to occupy the position of Dark City Lord. That was why he did this.
There were also people who guessed that there was something strange about this. The Dark City Lord did not know about this, but if it was not for Ye Hong Tian, who had discovered that silver pestle, he would naturally not have guessed the truth.
"Senior Chu, can you help me eavesdrop on what Lan Mi and that fake are talking about?" Ye Hong Tian came to a corner of the martial arts field and said to Chu Shi Kun in the dark.
Chu Shikun did not answer immediately. After a while, he said, "The imposter did not meet Lan Mi. The two of them left in the opposite direction."
"Oh?" Ye Hongtian was very surprised. He lowered his head and pondered. He frowned and said to himself, "Before the imposter called Lan Mi out, Lan Mi had already decided to tamper with the compass. So this matter has nothing to do with the fake? "
Looking at the strong martial artists and young men resting on the martial arts field, Ye Hongtian was puzzled. The identities of the candidates present were not simple, and two of them were taken care of just like that. The forces behind the two candidates would definitely investigate this matter thoroughly. Even if the Lan Family could be considered a top force, but to casually offend someone like this seemed a little too strange.
"Senior Chu, help me guide the way. We'll go look for that fake." Ye Hong Tian suddenly said.
Chu Shikun naturally followed Ye Hongtian's orders and helped Ye Hongtian lead the way. Soon, they arrived at the fake Dark City Lord's room.
The corpse in the Dark City Lord's room seemed to have yet to be discovered. This room became the Dark City Lord's new residence and there were many people waiting on it.
At this moment, there were servants serving the Dark City Lord outside the door. Inside the room were the fake Dark City Lord and his three team members. There was a very good soundproofing formation in the room. So, even a sage expert wouldn't be able to hear what was being said inside the room.
However, Ye Hong Tian was an expert of the matrix. So, it was very easy for him to crack a soundproofing array. A moment later, a gap appeared in the soundproofing matrix. He used this gap to eavesdrop on the conversation of the four people inside.
"I didn't expect such an accident to happen, but I don't think it was an accident. The scene of the battle between the Lan Family elder and the Jun Family elder suddenly disappeared. Could it be that one of the two elders tampered with the compass?"
"It's possible, but Lan Mi has no reason to do so. I gave him a handwritten letter before. The Lan Family is a vassal force of my Jiang Family. How could they do such a thing to disrupt the Jiang Family's plan?"
"Then... Is it possible that Lan Mi did it on purpose?"
"Impossible! Did you forget the forbidden technique that our Jiang family used on the Lan family? If they purposely target the Jiang family, they will immediately explode and die! "
The content of the short conversation caused Ye Hong Tian to open his mouth wide in shock. Not only did he know the origin of the fake, he also knew some things that even the Lan family's internal members might not know.
"The Jiang family... is somewhat familiar, but I can't remember." Ye Hong Tian frowned.
Chu Shikun, who was hiding in the dark, explained to Ye Hongtian, "Before the Jun Family, the Human King family was the Jiang family, but the Jiang family's way of governing the Divine Martial Continent disgusted all the warriors on the continent. In the end, they were destroyed, and by the way, they killed the Jiang family's patriarch's men. It was the Palace Master! "
"Oh?! Is that what happened 100,000 years ago? "
"Yes, but I remember that the Jiang family had already been wiped out. Why did they rebuild their family? I don't think the Jiang family can still develop under the watch of the Jun Family, unless... the Jun Family acquiesces to the Jiang family's development. "
Chu Shikun was hiding in the dark. Ye Hongtian couldn't see his expression, but judging from his tone, his expression should be serious.
The Jiang family's existence seemed to be a major event. Ye Hongtian had a feeling that he understood something he shouldn't have.
Seeing that Chu Shikun was no longer speaking in the dark, Ye Hongtian once again went to eavesdrop on the conversation of the four people in the room.1
He didn't know what the four of them had said to Chu Shikun just now, but their conversation directly jumped to a secret area.
"This time, for the Jiang family to rise again in the future, we must win the competition and obtain the key to the Rain God mystic realm. The biggest threat this time is Lan Mi, but they should only be helping us clear the obstacles. This way, we will be much more relaxed. "
"The Jun Family is also determined to get a spot in the Rain God Secret Realm this time. Can we... snatch it?"
"Hmph! Jun Family? Who do they think they are? When our Jiang family became the Human King family, the Jun Family was just a small family that couldn't be any smaller! If Jun Tianming hadn't gotten that weapon! And with the guidance of the Heavenly Dao, how could he let the Jun Family become the Human King family!?"
" Lord Elder, now is not the time to talk about these things. The key isn't with the Dark City's City Lord. These few days, we have searched every corner of the City Lord's Mansion. Could it be that we really have to wait for the City Lord competition to end before we know the location of the key? "
"This is the only thing we can do for now. Let's go and prepare first. We can't leave for too long."
With that said, footsteps approached the door. When Ye Hong Tian heard this, he immediately left. He became interested in the Rain God Secret Realm that they were talking about.
