C978 Chang Huan
"Commander Zhen, let's proceed according to the original plan! Since Yun Yang has the intention, you might as well interact more with him. This way, your chances of success will be greater. "
"Subordinate understands!"
Zhen Xing received the order and left. Lee Hao also walked out of the secret chamber. Everything was ready, waiting for the fish to take the bait.
Compared to South-suppressing King, the cultivators sent by Pingwu King to persuade them to surrender came a little late, a full three days late.
On one hand, it was because Yun Yang was close to the Huangsha City, and on the other hand, it was also because the Fallen Immortal City was on guard.
The guards at the critical moment were not child's play. Every cultivator who entered the city would be interrogated, not to mention strangers.
The stricter the defense, the more convincing it was. The more they believed that something had happened to Lee Hao.
This was the critical period of the Fallen Immortal City. Everyone in the Fallen Immortal City was in a state of panic. Even some strange voices could be heard coming from the Ever Triumphant Army, causing people to have no choice but to believe them.
Discussions were inevitable. After all, Lee Hao's death was a major incident. It would be strange if the Ever Triumphant Army didn't do anything about it.
Not everyone had the intelligence of Yun Luo, and not everyone knew about Lee Hao's capability. Although the Ever Triumphant Army had experienced Lee Hao's power, three people could become a tiger. The rogue cultivators in the city were all talking about Lee Hao's death, and they had heard a lot about it. Naturally, they would be affected by it.
Lee Hao was the founder of Ever Triumphant Army. The respect that the cultivators of Ever Triumphant Army had for him was from the bottom of their hearts. Now that Lee Hao was killed, the murderer was still at large. The cultivators of the Ever Triumphant Army naturally raised their spirits to pay attention to any suspicious person.
Pingwu King's men had to put in a lot of effort before they could enter the city!
Zhen Prefecture. This was Zhen Xing's mansion in Fallen Immortal City. Lee Hao had given it to him. Compared to the mansion of Yun Family, it was only slightly smaller.
Yun Family was a large family with thousands of people, but Zhen Xing was alone. Including his servants and maids, there were only about ten of them. It was very quiet.
In the past, the Zhen Family wasn't like this. They were a large family that wasn't inferior to the Yun Family, but because of South-suppressing King, all of this was gone.
Zhen Xing was still in the prime of his life. It was not difficult for him to get married and have children. However, he did not have such thoughts at the moment. He had yet to take revenge on his family. How could he become a family?
Although the family was deserted, the Zhen family was bustling with activity outside. All of them were cultivators who had come to pay a visit.
Zhen Xing was someone who had a chance to take over the position of Fallen Immortal City's City Lord. The Cultivation Realm wouldn't lack those flattering people.
However, these people were destined to be in vain, because Zhen Prefecture's main gate was tightly shut, and no guests were allowed to enter.
This had made those who wanted to establish a connection with Zhen Xing anxious.
Fallen Immortal City was now a place of luxury. Many rogue cultivators had broken their heads and wanted to enter the City Lord Mansion to get a position and position. The generous treatment they received made them salivate.
However, today was different from the past. Currently, the Fallen Immortal City had overcome the initial shortage of manpower. Currently, although the City Lord Mansion was full of talents, there were still many people who could do things. It wasn't an easy task to enter the ___.
In the past, they didn't have the chance to do so, but the old saying was right. A person could become a minister overnight. If Zhen Xing became the City Lord, he wouldn't use the people Lee Hao had used in the past, but the people he had arranged for him.
This was only an ideal situation. Taking a step back, even if Zhen Xing couldn't become the City Lord, he was still the deputy commander of the Ever Triumphant Army. He held real power and was also a good candidate to join the Ever Triumphant Army.
In the past, there were also some of these people. Apart from meeting his old friends, Zhen Xing didn't see any other cultivators.
Now that something had happened to Lee Hao, he didn't want to see him anymore. The door was closed to express his thoughts.
Naturally, he was putting on a show for Pingwu King's subordinates.
Everyone in Fallen Immortal City knew how Lee Hao treated Zhen Xing. There was nothing he could say about it.
Zhen Xing had just joined the Ever Triumphant Army, and he didn't participate in the battle between South-suppressing King and Pingwu King. He didn't make any contributions, but Lee Hao still entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.
If Lee Hao had just left, Zhen Xing would have immediately recruited him. What was this? This was called the heart of a wolf and the lungs of a dog.
Zhen Xing wasn't such a person. He was a famous Nascent Soul cultivator in Tiannan County, and he knew a lot of cultivators.1
He shut himself in and refused guests, and stayed in seclusion. He only showed up occasionally, and it was normal for him to patrol the security of Fallen Immortal City. He expressed that he did not have any intention of sitting on the throne of the City Lord, and this was the attitude that Zhen Xing should have.
Of course, there was another thing that Zhen Xing had to do every day, and that was to go out on time every morning and burn an incense stick in Lee Hao's memorial hall.
Today was not an accident. As soon as the morning sun passed, the closed door of Zhen Prefecture opened and Zhen Xing walked out in a plain dress.
It was better not to walk early, and there were even early pedestrians. At this time, a small group of people had already gathered outside Zhen Prefecture.
Zhen Xing's whereabouts had already been discovered by them. This was the only chance they had to meet Zhen Xing. Naturally, those people wouldn't miss it.
"Commander Zhen, I'm Jia Zhen of Cloud Xiushan. I have something to discuss with Commander Zhen!"
"Commander Zhen, I'm heading to Huaishan Forest Mountain. I have an important matter to pay a visit to you!"
... ""
The greeting sounds kept ringing out. However, these cultivators had a common characteristic, and that was that they weren't native cultivators of the Fallen Immortal City.
Where did these cultivators come from? These were cultivators from other places in the Xianlin Mountain, just like the Yi Family of Lian Yun Dao. These people were also from powerful families that had come to this place.
In the past, they naturally wouldn't care about the matters in the Fallen Immortal City, but now that the Fallen Immortal City ruled the entire Xianlin Mountain, they naturally had to pay attention to the movements of the wind and grass here.
The Yun Family was a veteran cultivation family in the Fallen Immortal City. Those small-scale cultivation families in the Fallen Immortal City followed the Yun Family's lead. If they wanted to fight for benefits, they could only choose Zhen Xing, the person who had no backing in the Fallen Immortal City.
However, the falling flowers were intentional and merciless. Zhen Xing didn't care about them at all. He sat on the carriage that he had prepared earlier and left quickly.
Flying was not allowed in the city. This was an iron law. Zhen Xing was the commander of the Ever Triumphant Army, and he was not allowed to fly unless it was an emergency.
Everyone was a cultivator, and no one liked to walk under the feet of others. However, if they were to fly in the sky, wouldn't the Fallen Immortal City be in chaos?
After Zhen Xing left, these people were no longer calm.
"I don't know what this Zhen Xing is thinking. If he doesn't seize this great opportunity, when Yun Yang returns to the city, will he still have a chance?"
"That's right, his brain must be fried! He's not even willing to take the throne of the city lord."
As an independent power, the Fallen Immortal City's leader enjoyed the possession of fate. Although it wasn't as many as the princes of the Great Zhou Imperial Court, it still had quite a bit of fate to rule over a billion people.
These cultivators expressed that they didn't understand what Zhen Xing was doing. Even if Lee Hao was indebted to Zhen Xing, however, when cultivators cultivated, they needed to press forward with indomitable will. How could they give up the opportunity that they could easily obtain just because of the kindness they had shown them in the past? Wasn't this a great loss because of a small gain?
These cultivators were puzzled, but Zhen Xing's carriage was stopped by someone.
The driver of the carriage angrily said, "Who are you? Do you know whose carriage this is?"
The one who stopped the carriage was a scholarly man wearing white clothes. He had the aura of a scholar.
The man smiled lightly and cupped his hands, saying, "Brother Zhen, an old friend is here to visit. Why don't we take a break?"
This person was precisely the Cultivator of Great Perfection of Nascent Infant under Pingwu King's command, Chang Huan!
