Defying the Martial Way to Burn the Heavens

Chapter 2800: Lord of Hongcheng

On the surface, it seemed that Zheng Lu was inquiring about some situation in the Acropolis, but during the inquiry process, he was guiding intentionally or unintentionally.

Every one of these people present is not a fool. Since they have seen Zheng Lu's intention, they will naturally explain the problem in the direction Zheng Lu wants without leaving any room.

After getting the answer he wanted, Zheng Lu couldn't hide his joy, turned to look at Jiang Xin and said.

"With such a big change happening in the Acropolis, the empire must be notified as soon as possible. I think the empire's top officials will also be eager to know what exactly happened here."

Hearing what Zheng Lu said, Jiang Xin couldn't help but secretly complain. Zheng Lu deliberately asked him to report, so he wanted to stay out of the incident, and he did come to the Acropolis after the incident happened. As the lord of the Acropolis, it was only natural for him to take the initiative to report the situation here to the empire.

However, if the content of the report is to satisfy Zheng Lu, it will inevitably offend the forces behind Duobao Trading House. But if he didn't report it like this, Zheng Lu could now punish himself for "concealing it and not reporting it".

Seeing that Jiang Xin was hesitant, Zheng Lu slowly turned his head and looked towards Jiang Xin. The moment Jiang Xin made eye contact with Zheng Lu, her hands and feet suddenly felt cold, and a bone-chilling chill flowed throughout her body.

The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, Jiang Xin did not dare to hesitate any more, and immediately clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, High Priest, I will report the truth to the empire, including your speculations, and I promise not to hide anything."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone including Lin Hu and Bo Ka's expressions became very strange. Jiang Xin was forced to have no choice. Since there was no way to escape, Jiang Xin simply pulled everyone into the water together, "You can't let me go, and I can't run away from you." This was exactly what Jiang Xin was thinking.

Without any further hesitation, Jiang Xin clasped her fists lightly, then quickly turned and left. He neither dared to waste time here, nor did he want to stay and face the resentful looks of the people around him.

At this moment, the sound transmission stone in Zeng Jiang's hand suddenly started to fluctuate. Although the fluctuations are very weak, after injecting spiritual power, the connection can be quickly established.

A man's voice rang out from the sound transmission stone, and he spoke quickly: "Little Pavilion Master, the Lord of Hongcheng is with a large number of warriors under him outside the West City Gate. Do we want to let him into the city?"

Before entering the city, the high priest Zheng Lu had issued an order to seal the city gates and not allow anyone to enter or exit. Although there are still city guards guarding the city, the people who are really responsible have been completely replaced by warriors from Benxiao Pavilion, so all situations will be reported to Zeng Jiang as soon as possible.

After hearing the contents of the sound transmission stone, Zeng Jiang unconsciously looked at Zheng Lu, but saw Zheng Lu's impatient look on his face and said, "He, the Lord of Hongcheng, is here to join in the fun at this time. Let him hurry up." Get out of here."

When Zheng Lu opened his mouth to speak, Linhu's eyes flickered slightly, and she suddenly said: "Master Fire Priest, the Lord of Hongcheng is here now, I'm afraid there are other reasons. And I heard that the Lord of Hongcheng, We have a good relationship with the new county governor, maybe they have another purpose here. "

After listening to Lin Hu's reminder, Zheng Lu's eyes moved slightly, and then he ordered: "Let them come in, but closely monitor their every move. They will not be allowed to enter the inner city, nor will they be allowed to leave the Acropolis. Let them operate within the confines of the outer city.”

After hearing Zheng Lu's order, a smile flashed across Zeng Jiang's face. He already understood what Zheng Lu and Lin Hu were thinking. They kept Hongcheng City Lord "Li Kuang" for future use. article.

At this time, outside the city, a very muscular man stood at the head of the team. In such a cold season, the man actually exposed his upper body like this. In addition to the majestic muscles, there were more scars. Some of those scars seemed to have been left a long time ago, while others looked very new. Just healed.

Behind the middle-aged man were two dashing women in elegant attire. After that, there were neat groups of warriors. At a rough glance, the number was at least about two hundred.

One of the short-haired women whispered: "City Lord, we have just contacted people in the city. Judging from the information obtained, there seems to be a major change in the city. The most important thing is that the young lady seems to be involved. We are here I’m afraid it’s going to be a lot of trouble.”

Although another woman has long hair, the sides of her hair are shaved bare, and only the middle part has long hair, which is tied into a long braid that hangs down to her lower back.

After hesitating for a moment, she suggested: "In this case, why do we have to wade through this muddy water? Why not return to Hongcheng quickly. When the situation here becomes clearer, it will not be too late for us to come back."

The man wearing a mask and called "City Lord" is Hongcheng City's main force. And the reason why he appeared here was precisely because he received an order from the Governor of Shinkari, but even he did not expect that he would face such a complicated situation after arriving here.

With his eyesight, when he arrived near the west city gate, he could already see that a strong man had just taken action here, and the target was the protective formation of the acropolis. The city defense formation is still perfectly preserved to this day, which only shows that the goal of the person who took action was not to destroy the formation, but to break some of the formation's means and successfully enter the city.

After carefully observing the destruction around him, he had guessed that the person who did it was the domineering fire priest Zheng Lu.

This Li Kuang looks like a very rough person, but only those who really know him know that he is a rough but meticulous person. He doesn't care about small things, but he is very cautious about big things. That's why he can become one of the confidants of Xinxu County Magistrate Linlang.

The two women in special clothes behind him are generally well known in Xinxu County. They are the two most capable warriors under the command of Hongcheng and Li Kuang. They are famous for their cruelty. Someone gave them a nickname "Double Flower Demon", which originally contained humiliation, but the two of them accepted it happily and even called themselves "demon flowers" to the outside world.

Without expressing his opinion immediately, Li Kuang knew very well that the two sisters behind him made that suggestion for his own consideration. But he knew clearly that because of the change in the Weicheng, he couldn't leave at this time.

Not only did he report his identity to the warriors of Benxiao Pavilion on the city wall before, leaving at this time would only give people a guilty feeling, and it would be easier for Zheng Lu to catch this handle.

There is another important reason. Li Kuang is concerned about Lin Zhi's safety. He knows that Lin Zhi may be in danger, so he can't just leave it alone. So he is more likely to leave directly.

After hesitating for a moment, Li Kuang said softly: "Send the fastest man to deliver the news to Xinshu County in person and explain everything here to the county governor in person.

Leave a contact person outside the city to be responsible for contacting the city, but there is no need to work together with the people in Xinshu County. This can also prevent the other party from removing the contact person at once."

The elder sister of this "twin demon flowers" is the long-haired woman named Wulan, and the short-haired woman named Duoma. Just from the names of the two people, it is not difficult to see that they are all from the prairie.

The origins of these two people have always been a mystery in Xinshu County, but they are very loyal to Li Kuang. In addition, the combat effectiveness of these two people is extremely strong, and there are few opponents among men of the same level. The combat effectiveness of the two people has doubled, which is why they can firmly occupy the position of leader and have never wavered.

It is precisely because of the assistance of these two people that Hongcheng has been continuously developing and growing despite not having the unique advantages of Weicheng in all aspects over the years. Especially in terms of personal ability alone, everyone's private evaluation of Li Kuang is definitely higher than Jiang Xin.

This is also why Jiang Xin and Li Kuang not only always keep a certain distance, but Jiang Xin is even cautious about Li Kuang in everything. As a result, the two city lords of Weicheng and Hongcheng rarely move around, which is exactly what the Xinshu County Magistrate wants to see. He has never taken the initiative to help improve the tense relationship between the two.

After listening to Li Kuang's order, the short-haired woman named Doma immediately made arrangements for her subordinates. When the subordinates began to act separately, the city gate with a big hole in it slowly opened, and the city defense formation was fully opened.

Before, when Zheng Lu attacked, he only targeted the forbidden part of the city defense formation. Therefore, after the city defense formation was reopened, although the power was slightly affected, it did not affect its own operation.

The broken gate was no longer a barrier, but when the gate was opened from the inside, the city defense formation would also open a passage.

On Li Kuang's metal mask, only his eyes were exposed. There was a slight hesitation in his eyes, but soon it turned into a firm look, and he walked towards the opened formation passage.

The "Demon Flower Sisters" did not hesitate at all. After seeing Li Kuang walking forward, they immediately followed him. The team behind also moved at this time. From the uniform movement of the team, it can be seen that they have undergone rigorous training, at least much stronger than the city guards of Weicheng.

After the last Hongcheng warrior entered the city gate, the city gate was slowly closed, and the city defense formation was reopened. Li Kuang, who was walking in front, paused slightly, and subconsciously glanced behind him, but soon walked forward and continued to walk.

He didn't know that Weicheng, who was originally ordered to act this time, dragged Li Kuang into a chaos that had never occurred in the entire Ye Lin Empire.

When Li Kuang and others entered the city, Zuo Feng had already left the Tibetan Medicine Building. He knew that it was safer to stay in the Tibetan Medicine Building, but that was only temporary safety. He had to plan ahead and prepare a more reliable response method. Everything had to ensure that Shan Ji could successfully complete the absorption and fusion next.
