"Are you a newcomer?" Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the City Lord's expression suddenly changed, and he was about to call for help, but Xiao Chen rushed forward and covered the City Lord's mouth.
He could only make a whining sound, facing the constantly struggling city lord, Xiao Chen tightly controlled him, and said with an indifferent smile on his face.
"My lord, it's better not to struggle, let's sit down and have a good chat, isn't it better?"
Although he lost his cultivation, it was not difficult for Xiao Chen to restrain the city lord who had been pampered all the year round. When he found that he couldn't break free from Xiao Chen's shackles, the city lord gradually calmed down, stopped struggling, and nodded slightly .
Seeing this, Xiao Chen let go of the city lord's mouth, but correspondingly, a dagger was placed on the city lord's neck. As long as he made a slight movement, Xiao Chen would be able to kill him in the shortest possible time. Kill directly.
Feeling the constant chill coming from his neck, the city lord forcibly maintained his composure, and asked Xiao Chen with a somewhat blunt tone, "What exactly do you want?"
"It's nothing, but I just want to leave this ghost place. I heard that the city lord has a token of a stone palace in his hand. I think if the city lord can give me the token and take us to the stone palace, then everyone will also Then everyone can be happy." Hearing this, Xiao Chen laughed lightly.
He had already guessed that the exit from the Nine Heavens City was in the mysterious stone palace deep in the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion, so the purpose of Xiao Chen's trip was also very clear, which was the token.
Hearing this, the city lord's face darkened. He couldn't figure out why Xiao Chen knew about the token. He inadvertently looked at Tianyue aside. Seeing this, the city lord suddenly had a bad premonition. Since Tianyue appeared in the Here, what about my son?
A flash of hatred flashed in his eyes, the city lord looked at Xiao Chen, and asked coldly, "What about my son, what did you do to him?"

"Don't worry, your son is fine, as long as you hand over the token, I won't hurt him, how about it?" Xiao Chen smiled.
Xiao Chen lied to the city lord, there was no other way, he could only do this in order to get the token, sure enough, the city lord secretly heaved a sigh of relief when he heard that his son was still alive, and then began to weigh up.
One is the ancestral token, and the other is the life of his only son. Between the two, the city lord needs to make a choice. Of course, at this time the city lord does not know that his son has already been slaughtered by Xiao Chen.
He didn't urge him either, in the end, the city lord still made a choice, took out a simple token from a hidden compartment on the bookshelf at the side, and handed it to Xiao Chen.
"This is the token to open the Stone Palace, where is my son?" Handing the token to Xiao Chen, the city lord said coldly.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen took the token and said without changing his face, "I'll send you to see him right away."
As he said that, the dagger in Xiao Chen's hand flashed, and it pierced into the city lord's heart on the spot. Unexpectedly, Xiao Chen would suddenly kill the killer. The city lord looked at Xiao Chen unwillingly and said, "You...you Unbelievable."
"No, I told you to send you to see your son." Xiao Chen said.
"You...you killed my son..." In the end, the city lord said these words extremely unwillingly, and then fell powerlessly into a pool of blood.
Seeing Xiao Chen kill the city lord without hesitation, Tianyue on the side said, "You...you lied to him."
That's right, Xiao Chen did lie to the city lord and finally killed him, but Xiao Chen didn't feel that he had done anything wrong. In order to survive, these seemingly despicable tricks could only be used.
"If you don't do this, you and I may be the ones who die. Don't forget, we don't have any cultivation. If we alarm the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, then we are really doomed." Hearing Tianyue's words, Xiao Chen said.
Perhaps in Tianyue's view, the number one saint in the Northern Star Realm like her and Xiao Chen shouldn't use such despicable methods to deceive others, Xiao Chen's methods are a bit despicable.
However, unlike Tianyue, Xiao Chen didn't think there was anything wrong with what he did. Living is the most important thing. If you don't even have your life, what else are you talking about?
In Xiao Chen's eyes, such a person who gave up the chance of survival for the sake of the so-called integrity was no different from a fool.
He didn't explain too much to Tianyue, after all, the two had different growth experiences. Compared with Xiao Chen, Tianyue can almost be regarded as a flower that grew up in a greenhouse. Although he has experienced many fights, but for the danger of time, It is true that Tianyue has too little contact.
After putting away the token, the two changed into the clothes of the two guards outside the door, and then they walked towards the stone palace deep in the backyard.
With the identities of these two guards, it is indeed much more convenient to do things. At least the two of them have not encountered any obstacles along the way. As for the corpses of the city lord and his son, Xiao Chen didn't bother at all. When the bodies of their father and son were found tomorrow, Xiao Chen and Tian Yue might have already left the Nine Heavens City.
He came to the backyard without any hindrance, and in the distance, Xiao Chen had already seen an ordinary stone palace.
There is nothing surprising about it, it looks very simple, and there is no one around here to give up, maybe because they think this stone palace is very safe, so the city lords of all dynasties did not arrange anyone to guard this stone palace.
Thinking about it, this stone palace was probably built by the Emperor, so it is naturally extremely safe in the Nine Heavens City where there are no warriors at all.
Moreover, the token to open the stone hall has always been kept by the contemporary city lord personally, as long as the token is not lost, no one can enter the stone hall, so naturally there is no need to send someone to guard it.
However, Xiao Chen and Tian Yue were overjoyed at this point, since no one was guarding them, it would naturally save a lot of trouble.
Stride to the front of the stone hall, the two stone gates are tightly closed, but in the center of the stone gate, there is another groove, the shape is exactly the same as the token.
"I don't know what secrets are in this stone palace." Xiao Chen murmured softly, and put the token into the groove, and then, the stone door slowly opened.
The scene in the stone hall could not be seen, it was pitch black inside, but at this moment the stone door opened, Xiao Chen and Tianyue looked at each other, and then walked towards the stone hall together.
The Stone Palace is likely to be the entrance to the most precious treasure in the sky, the Emperor's Record. Therefore, when he entered the Stone Palace, even Xiao Chen couldn't help being a little excited. After working hard for so long, he has experienced countless How could it not be exciting to see the dawn of victory now.
