Chapter 378 City Lord's Visit
As soon as the breeze blows, the smell of blood in the air gradually fades. The whole audience also gradually recovered from the shock. Lie Daomen suffered this disaster, which was unexpected by everyone present. Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other. I'm afraid no one can predict what they will face in the next moment.
The disciples of Liedaomen have fallen into a period of sadness. First, the young master died tragically, followed by the doorkeeper. Even if it was a disaster of extinction, it was nothing more than that. When Song Shu died, Liedaomen was about to be reduced from the first-class power of Xiliu City to second-rate, or even worse.
Gu Hen of the city owner's mansion and Xiao Lin Linhai looked at each other. They both understood the helplessness in each other's eyes. If it were the two of them, it would probably be the same as Song Shuo.
Xia and Yueer have fallen back to the ground, and everyone's eyes look at the two with a trace of awe, especially Yueer, who is obviously an eighteen or nineteen-year-old girl, but her strength is so unfathomable.
Xia faintly glanced at Song Zhuo's body, and the chill on his face gradually faded. In fact, he was also a little surprised that he could kill the other party so easily. Originally, this kind of thing would not have happened, but when he heard the other party say that he would not let go of the people who were related to him, which aroused his murderous intention this time.
The dragon has reverse scales, and if you touch it, you will be angry. The wolf has a dark thorn, and if it touches it, it will die. Relatives, lovers, friends are the reverse scales and hidden thorns of the summer. Those who harm them will not let go...
The nine soul jade competition ended in a dull sound. The frightened swordsman didn't dare to do anything to General Xia anymore. In just half a day, the deeds of summer spread throughout Xiliu City, just like after the baptism of a storm, streets and alleys, pubs and teahouses, everyone knows.
Fight Lin Chi first, then defeat Fei Yan, and kill Song Chengfeng. With these three things, everyone can't even think about it. In particular, the sword that killed Songao in the end made it impossible for nearly 10,000 people in the audience to forget for a lifetime.
However, some people also pointed out that the reason why Xia could easily kill Songao was that Yue'er seriously injured the other party first, and Songao was killed without being able to resist.
While marveling at the strength of General Xia, he was also envious of his Yanfu. Many people secretly speculate about the identity of the two. Some say that they are excellent disciples of one of the seven major forces in Zhongzhou, and some people say that they are powerful families in other states and come specially for the Cape.
There are different opinions, and the guess is fruitless. However, it is worth mentioning that the quota of Xia's battle with Jiuhunyu is from the city's mansion, and it is reminiscent of Gu Hen's protection of Xia after the game. In this way, the city's mansion also rose and pushed the momentum to the top.
As for the knife door, it is inevitable to go downhill. The nine soul jade was not obtained, and even the pillar was pulled out. No wonder the murderer was constantly killed, and the humiliating was always humiliated.
But this is only a small city in the marginal area of Zhongzhou, and it is only the first step to step Xia into Zhongzhou. Even the mid-term Wu Emperor like Song Shu only has an influence in Xiliu City...
"Yue'er, what's your cultivation level?"
Under the bright moonlight, after celebrating with the family, the four yin heroes and Fei Ze in the evening. It was the first time that Jiang Xia took the initiative to chat in the yard.
The bright moonlight pours on Yueer's delicate little face, which looks particularly touching. The big and flexible eyes blinked gently, with a lovely smile on the corners of his mouth, "Guess!"
Xia's face looked thoughtful, touched his chin, and then said tentatively, "In the later period of Emperor Wu?"
"Hmm!" Yue'er nodded and admitted it, but then said an intriguing sentence, "It's indeed the later period of Emperor Wu now, and I guess I can recover in a few days."
"Ef?" Jiang Xia couldn't help but be stunned, and this sentence was a little strange. After a secret speculation, he became more and more confused, "Month, what do you mean by this? Is it possible that your real strength is not limited to Emperor Wu's later period?
"Of course, I'm the god of war!" Yue'er didn't think about it, so she blurted back.
"Wu, God of War?" Jiang Xia couldn't help twitching the corners of her eyes. The girl was talking nonsense again. She had never seen the legendary god of war in her life. You, a little girl in her teens and twenties, said that she was a god. Even if someone now holds a knife on Jiang Xia's neck, she can't believe it.
He raised his eyes but saw that Yue'er's eyes were full of naughty smiles. He was more sure that the other party was joking with him. He secretly wiped the sweat stains on his forehead and said angrily, "If you are the god of war, I'm still a demon pupil!"
Yue'er's big eyes lit up. Yu's hand grabbed the other party's wrist and replied in surprise, "Jeng Xia, you finally admitted that you were Zitong? Great, do you remember who I am?
"What and what? How can I say that I am a purple pupil? He frowned Xia Jun and gently removed his arm.
"Didn't you just say that you were a demon pupil?"
"Is that right? What's the matter?"
"Purple pupil's eyes are demon pupils!"
"Ah?" Jiang Xia was very surprised. Seeing her serious face, she didn't seem to be lying. She thought that what Yueer said was probably true.
A trace of joy gushed out of Yueer's beautiful eyes and said with a smile, "Zi Tong, do you know that Yueer misses you so much?"
" Stop!" Jiang Xia hurriedly made a stop gesture, and his tone was much more serious than before. "Yue'er, you said that the purple pupil is the demon pupil, right?"
"Hmm!"
"Then you really recognize the wrong person. My eyes are not demon pupils." Jiang Xia's eyes were full of firmness. He paused for a little. Before the other party to say anything, he continued, "If you don't believe it, you can go to Xizhou to ask Zhan Tianyi. I believe you have heard of his prestige. What he said is absolutely true."
"It's not like this, your demon pupil is now,"...
"Jing Xia, Miss Yueer, are you busy?"
Before Yue'er finished his words, Men Zongzi happened to appear at the door of the yard, probably because he disturbed the two of them, and he was a little sorry on his face.
"Brother Zongzi, what's the matter at this late hour?" Jiang Xia smiled and stopped listening to Yue'er's explanation. He stepped forward and walked to Menzongzi.
The latter nodded and touched his nose shyly. "Well, the lord of the city is here. Now he is in the lobby. He said he wanted to see you. I can't help it, so I came to disturb you two."
"Hehe, what Brother Zong said, you and I don't need to be so polite." Jiang Xia shook his head with a smile, and immediately turned back to say hello to Yue'er, "Moon'er, I'll go to see the city owner with my brother first. Go to bed early by yourself!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, leaving a resentful face. With a gentle sigh, a trace of helplessness gushed out of Yueer's beautiful eyes. The beauty was like jade, and the elf-like little face rose with a trace of gloom.
"Purple pupil, why don't you believe me? I don't want to listen to my explanation. It's impossible for me to recognize the wrong person. ......
On the lobby of the family, the four yin heroes, Fei Ze, and Xiaorou holding the child are all there. Gu Hen, the owner of Xiliu City, stood behind him with two young men with good temperament and good appearance.
Men Zongzi and General Xia's figure came close from far away. Gu Hen quickly put down the teacup in his hand and got up to meet him. "Brother Xia, I'm really sorry to disturb you so late."
"The lord of the city is serious." Jiang Xia also held his fists in his hands and replied politely, "The lord of the city came to visit in person, and I was well off worthy of it."
"Ha ha, Brother Xia is too modest." Gu Hen did not hide the appreciation in his eyes.
The four yin heroes and Xiao Rou on both sides of the hall are also happy. You know, the city owner Gu Hen is the first time to bend his knees to the door's house in person, which has never happened before...
"Lord of the city, I don't know what you are looking for?" Jiang Xia asked the doubts in his heart. In fact, he already had an answer. He just wanted to confirm it.
"Alas!" Gu Hen sighed softly and directly opened his mouth to the mountain and said, "Jiangxia, I won't forgive more. I believe you have guessed that I'm here for your nine places of nine soul jade."
As soon as these words came out, the four yin heroes, Fei Ze and others couldn't help but look a little moved, especially the two young people behind Gu Hen, who seemed a little nervous.
Jiang Xia's face did not change much. He still had a lot of good feelings for Guhen in front of him. After the competition for Jiuhunyu, when Song Shuo was about to kill himself, Guhen tried his best to defend himself. No matter what the purpose was, the city owner's mansion went to block the fierce knife gate head-on, which also made Xia grateful.
After a little thought, he looked directly at Gu Hen, "Lord, there are still two of the nine places available."
"Really?" Gu Hen's eyes suddenly lit up, and the two young people behind him couldn't help showing great joy.
Xia nodded and affirmed it. There are nine places, and two are still vacant. The seven are naturally Xia, Yueer, Fei Ze, and the four yin heroes.
Originally, Xia wanted to give one of them to the family, but the latter bluntly declined. Because of his wife and children, the family is happy to live an ordinary and stable life, and the attraction of the Cape Domain is no longer so great.
The four yin heroes also knew that Men Zongzi did not want to go to the Cape Realm, and they didn't say much. Xiaorou, holding the child in her arms, turned her eyes to Menzongzi, with a gentle smile in her eyes, as if grateful as happiness and sweet. Men Zongzi also cast the same look of concern. Maybe in his opinion, this is the happiness he wants...
"Jing Xia." Gu Hen turned his eyes to the two young men behind him. "One of them is my son Gu Yun, and the other is my nephew Gu Chao. The two of them yearn for the Cape Area. I don't know if your two places are okay?"
Seeing this, Gu Yun and Gu Chao took a step forward and walked to General Xia and Gu Hen. They held their fists with their hands, showed a trace of expectation and sincerity, and said in one voice.
"In the ancient clouds."
"Gu Chao, please complete the Xia brothers."
