Chapter 148 Self-Abolition of Martial Arts
The clouds and fog dissipated, and the resentment disappeared. This dark ghost realm that covered the sky and the sun disappeared in just a moment. The blue sky and the day and the magnificent city master's hall reappeared in front of everyone.
The people in Black Dragon City, who have been suppressed for a long time, are still waiting for Deng Xi's treatment of them. Naturally, they are confused when they see this scene. They don't know what Deng Xi means. While secretly breathed a sigh of relief, they look at him more suspiciously.
"Well, the chaos in the Zhongdu mainland is almost over. I don't know if Lord Xiao has any idea."
Deng Xi asked leisurely.
Xiao Zhong and his face were pale. Although Black Dragon City had no direct hostilities against the Deng family from beginning to end, he chose to stand with Bo Yuntian, which made him very embarrassed no matter how he opened his mouth at this moment.
After a long time of concentration, he shook his head slightly: "I have nothing to say. What do you think I should do?"
Deng Xi smiled and said, "Well, I know it's really difficult for you to ask Lord Xiao to speak now. Bo Yuntian was defeated, and Black Dragon City's position was embarrassing, which was inevitable. If I want to kill from the enemy's point of view, I believe you have nothing to say.
As soon as this came out, a burst of ** suddenly appeared among the people in Black Dragon City. Xiao Guangli, Xiao Zhonghe's eldest son, said loudly, "Deng Xi, don't think that you are now highly cultivated, you can pinch us casually. If we go together, you may not be able to kill us all!"
"Is it?" Deng Xi's eyes swept, and he stared at him so much that he couldn't speak.
"Yes, Black Dragon City has been able to lead the mainland for so many years, and it is indeed a talented person. However, with all due respect, in addition to the old city owner of Xiao who can take me one or two moves, including the three families of King Shen and Li, all the people who can move together are not enough for half of the cultivation of the nine clear apprentices just now. I only used one trick to kill them just now. I don't know how many tricks you think you can take me?
As he spoke, his eyes passed through the faces of the people in front of him one by one. The hidden powerful pressure directly saw their eyes scattered and involuntarily turned their faces.
Originally, there were still a few young people who wanted to scold, but they were immediately short-hearted and had no courage.
"Well, there are some words that I don't want to hear again. People's patience is limited. Do you understand?" Deng Xi sneered.
With such oppression and humiliation, it is inevitable that anyone will be angry, not to mention that these people have always been used to doing instructions on the mainland of Zhongdu. However, in the face of the absolute situation, no matter how dissatisfied they are, there is nothing they can do. I could only listen to Deng Xi continue to speak angrily.
Seeing the gnashing expression in front of him, Deng Xi couldn't help laughing and said, "I know you feel uncomfortable, but there's nothing you can do. This is your fault. After the battle between me and Bo Yuntian in Zhongdu City, you have a complete opportunity to make the right choice and stand on my side. With the cultivation of Xiao Old City and the strong strength of Black Dragon City, if you join hands with me and Feng City of Zhongdu City, you can easily defeat Bo Yuntian. At that time, with your strength, although you may no longer call for wind and rain on the Zhongdu continent as before, at least you can maintain your decent. However, Xiao didn't take the main road in the old city, but he had to take the path, which in turn cooperated with Bo Yuntian. I don't know what the old city owner thinks?"
When Xiao Zhonghe heard this, he naturally couldn't say a word, so he could only look up to the sky and sigh again.
Deng Xi sneered: "Since the old city owner can't say it, let me say it for you. That's not right. Please forgive the old city owner and elders.
Speaking of this, he paused and continued, "Actually, I quite understand the idea of the old city owner of Xiao. Since the decline of the Central Capital, Black Dragon City has been the hegemon of the mainland. Over time, the face is getting bigger and bigger, but the courage is getting smaller and smaller. Seeing that Bo Yuntian found a master from Dongzhou mainland and was about to subvert the status of Black Dragon City, I'm afraid he panicked early in the morning. He wanted to suppress Bo Yuntian, but he guessed that he couldn't beat the other party.
When I was running ants on the hot pot, I, a Deng boy who had been dead for a year, didn't know where I came out and could actually draw with the masters of Dongzhou mainland. Naturally, this made the old city owner Xiao and all the elders happy. But it happened that both sides sent letters to form an alliance with Black Dragon City to defeat the enemy. So, you began to have a headache. Which one is better to form an alliance with? I think at the beginning, I'm afraid that the opinions of the different families were not agreeing, and there were even some quarrels, right?
Speaking of this, he glanced around and saw a stunned look in everyone's eyes. Obviously, it was the reason for being guessed by Deng Xi.
"Not bad." Xiao Zhonghe sighed at this time and said, "You have guessed it. For this matter, the city has been meeting for a whole day, and there are all kinds of opinions. But in the end..."
Deng Xi immediately said, "But in the end, it was proposed that if we join the Deng family, even if we defeat Bo Yuntian in the end, the power to dominate the mainland will certainly fall, which will be greatly disadvantageous to Black Dragon City. In turn, he formed an alliance with Bo Yuntian. Although the initial result was similar, Bo Yuntian relied on the masters invited from the mainland of Dongzhou. These people came for profit and could never be used by Bo Yuntian. When the overall situation is certain, they will return to the Dongzhou mainland. At that time, with the strength of the Black Dragon City, it can completely suppress Bo Yuntian again and regain control of the mainland of Zhongdu. Am I right?"
For a moment, everyone in Black Dragon City looked at each other in consterance. They couldn't believe that Deng Xi said what happened at that time so accurately, as if he had witnessed it in person.
Deng Xi smiled at the situation: "It seems that I should have guessed right. Then let me guess again. The people who support this opinion should be the predecessors of the Shen family.
With that, his eyes turned to Shen Zhenting in an instant. For a moment, everyone's eyes also turned to him, and there were all kinds of complex expressions in their eyes. This is enough to show that Deng Xi's guess is right again.
It is normal for the Shen family to make such a claim because of the engagement banquet on that day. And the messenger sent to the capital in the end chose Shen Zhenting, which is also a very obvious circumstantial evidence.
Shen Zhenting frowned when he saw this and looked a little embarrassed and angry.
Xiao Zhonghe quickly said, "Deng Xi, don't be suspicious. No matter who put forward the opinion on that day, I will make the final decision. If there is any responsibility, I will bear it.
Deng Xi nodded: "The owner of Xiao's old city is indeed the lord of one side and has his own responsibility. However, no one needs to be responsible for this matter. Everyone makes choices for their own interests. There is nothing right or wrong, but different positions. Since Heilong City chose to stand with Bo Yuntian to deal with the Deng family, our Deng family will naturally have to deal with some people in Heilong City. The purpose is not to deal with anyone, and there is no revenge. It's just for the future peace of my Deng family on this continent.
"Deng Xi, what do you want?" Shen Zhenting finally couldn't help screaming.
Deng Xi took a deep breath, thought for a moment and said, "Don't be too nervous. Although the Shen family is the leader of the cooperation between Black Dragon City and Bo Yuntian, I will not specifically target the Shen family just because of this matter. As I said, my purpose is just for the sake of the future peace of my Deng family, and my disposal will follow this principle.
With that, he turned his face to Xiao Zhonghe and said, "The first thing I want to do is to ask the old city owner to abandon his martial arts and hand over the position of the city owner at the same time."
"What!" Xiao Zhonghe was shocked all over.
It is not surprising to hand over the position of city lord. He has been prepared for this. But now he is 100 years old and has spent his own martial arts, which is almost equivalent to removing half his life. It is hard to say how long he will live next. What's more, for a person who once dominated the whole continent, the humiliation is better than death.
And among the descendants of the Xiao family, some shouted loudly, and several young juniors immediately rushed to him and glared at Deng Xi.
Deng Xi smiled and said, "Old City Lord Xiao, this matter has not been discussed. However, if this article can be solved smoothly, I can consider it and discuss how to deal with other people after finding my family.
Usually, this condition itself does not make much sense, because it is equivalent to an immediate disposal, just a little delay. But for all ethnic groups in Black Dragon City, it has a lot to do with them, because the relationship between the Deng family and them, especially the Shen family, has always been very good. Although this time he teamed up with Bo Yuntian to be the enemy of the Deng family, after all, they have not directly had a bad relationship with the Deng family and have never been bloody with each other.
When Deng Zhaohua and Deng Zhengming arrive, maybe they can turn big things into small things when they pull old friendships. Avoid many crimes.
So, after hearing this condition, the eyes of the people in Black Dragon City couldn't help but shine a little. However, the price of this condition was that Xiao Zhonghe immediately abolished his martial arts. Naturally, they were embarrassed to express it directly to Xiao Zhonghe.
"Hahaha..." Xiao Zhonghe looked up to the sky and smiled: "Okay, okay, if that's the case, why should I cherish this hundred years of power? I hope you can keep your promise.
With that, as soon as he opened his eyes, he wanted to cut off his own meridians.
"No!" Several juniors of the Xiao family were shocked and immediately rushed up to hold Xiao Zhonghe's hand. But with a wave of his arm, he popped out several feet away.
"Puff!"
Xiao Zhonghe's luck shocked, and his meridians immediately broke inch by inch, and blood gushed on dozens of acupuncture points all over his body. He looked up to the sky and shouted loudly and slowly fell to the ground.
"Grandpa!"
"Ancestors!"
The Xiao family cried in unison and quickly rushed up and carried him back to the backyard.
