City Lord's Mansion of the Biyun City

"Mayor." The butler stood outside the study room and shouted softly. He was afraid that his shout would bring about trouble. He knew that the City Lord was not in a good mood because of the matters regarding the Shadow Legion.

"Hey, come in!" From the study room came the faint sigh of the mayor. Although he had said that he wouldn't let anyone disturb him these few days, he was the one who promoted the steward. He was very capable, so something must have happened to him otherwise he wouldn't be in a hurry to see him.

The mayor fell back as if he was paralyzed. He couldn't figure out who was behind the attack and what was the purpose of the loss of the gold coins.

Although he was only at the peak of crowns, his assassination attempt was very effective. In all these years, he had not lost a single time, but now that he had died, one could imagine how terrifying the strength of the person who attacked him was.

Could it be that this was the same person or the same group of people who had killed Black Blade?

The thought startled him. If that was the case, then what was their purpose? His heart was constantly pondering.

The butler stood aside silently, not daring to say a word. He knew what the timid City Lord in front of him was thinking.

After a long while, the mayor finally calmed down and asked weakly: "How are the Zhou family and Dong Family's reactions?"

The steward hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The two families were extremely angry. They said that they must catch the culprit, and even said … He even said for the mayor to send more men to investigate deeply. "

The mayor's anger that had been suppressed for a long time was finally vented out. He roared, "These two bastards, they really are good at scheming. The real motive behind this is still unclear. The situation is getting more and more chaotic."

The butler replied, "Your excellency is right. Your excellency is right."

The mayor coldly snorted and said, "Have you dealt with those girls?"

"Don't worry, my lord. It's all been taken care of without a trace left behind. From then on, we stopped fighting."

"Go and gather all three hundred of the city's imperial guards and surround the Underground Bank. At the same time, remove all the houses nearby without leaving any trace. Then, find ten of the scapegoats and kill them on the spot."

The butler was surprised at the mayor's caution. At the same time, he said worriedly, "Mayor, if we do this, the Zhou family and the Dong Family will be in trouble. After all, we've been managing the flats for so many years, isn't it a bit difficult to just throw it away like that …"

"Why? Are you doubting me?"

"Little me doesn't dare!"

Hmph, so what if it is the Zhou family, Dong Family and the rest. A group of people only knows how to split the money behind their backs.

"Yes." The butler replied softly and then quietly closed the door to the study. After walking away for a distance, he let out a long sigh of relief. This City Lord was a temperamental person. Although he was still able to treat him well, who knew what would happen in the future?

Thinking of this, the butler shook his head. He thought that since he had already walked on this path and lost the opportunity to turn back, he should just do as he was told.

After that, all sorts of big movements occurred in the Biyun City. The imperial guards killed the Underground Bank participants who had violated the imperial decree in the bungalow area, and then demolished the entire commoner district.

Zhou Family

"That damn stupid pig is really pissing me off." When Zhou Family Head heard the news, he was so angry that he almost died.

Beside him sat a thin middle-aged man with an ugly expression. He sighed and said, "Brother Zhou, forget it. What has happened has already happened." What can we do about it? "

After Zhou Family Head heard the middle-aged man's words, his mood eased, and he said, "Brother Dong, although what you say is true, once he thinks about the profit of nearly a hundred million gold coins per year, it is truly …"

Speaking of which, the Dong Family Patriarch, who was standing in front of them, did not feel very good either.

"Forget it, after a while, let's find another place. As for that City Lord, forget it. This kind of timid person can't cooperate with him."

Zhou Family Head nodded and said, "That's true."

Outside the Biyun City

After Long Chenhao and his group returned, they planned about what they would do in the future. They didn't know anything about what was happening in Biyun City.

Mu Yang, on the other hand, was not far away from him. In the forest, he was cultivating the crown technique that Long Chenhao had given him.

He also realized the huge weakness in his strength.

The heavy blade in his hand continued to swing, and with the support of the crown force, the Whirlwind Slash slowly took shape. Following the movement of his body, the surrounding trees were sliced apart by the sharp blade at his waist.

The heavy weight of the large blade in his hand provided a very good feedback power, allowing the might of the Whirlwind Slash to increase by a few points.

Perspiration flowed unceasingly, and the muscles on his body were trembling from the consumption of a large amount of crown force. Mu Yu walked over from the side and quickly wiped the sweat off her brother's forehead. The intelligent knew that maybe the moment when the two siblings leave Biyun City was the time.

Mu Yang saw that Mu Yu had revealed a simple and honest smile, and asked: "Little sister, why are you here?"

"I knew that you would definitely secretly cultivate here, so I came over to take a look. I didn't think that you would become so much stronger in such a short period of time." Mu Yu revealed a sweet smile.

"I don't care about that. If you saw the Long Gongzi take action, you would be more powerful." Mu Yang said with admiration, but then he thought about the scene when he entrusted Mu Yu to Long Chenhao.

Although he was a simple and honest person, there were some things that could still be understood.

"Little sister, do you hate me?" Mu Yang suddenly said after hesitating for a while.

"Bro, what are you saying?"

"It's all because your elder brother didn't have the ability to protect you that we're homeless right now. It's all thanks to the two gongzis …" Mu Yang followed his for a while, then said: "Little sister, don't worry, in the future, I will definitely build you a larger and better home."

Mu Yu looked at this simple and honest brother in front of him as she nodded heavily.

Who would have anticipated the cruelty of the world to be like this? After so many years, who would have expected that it was precisely this simple-looking youth that was able to stand alone in this place?
