Peerless Tang Sect's Splitting Claws Tearing the Sky
Chapter 23 Soul-Suppressing City
After the soldiers collected the corpses, they rushed to Soul Town with the remaining survivors. They wanted to report the information here to their superiors and place the remaining survivors at the same time.
Ye Ming only felt that what happened last night was like a dream, and it was gone after so many people said no.
With a human skin mask on his face, he turned into an ordinary person and blended into the team returning to the city. Weeping could be heard from time to time in the team.
The town with a population of more than 500 people now has less than 30 people surviving. Most of them are workers who went into the mountains to log wood and did not return last night. It is probably unbearable for anyone to hear the news of the tragic death of a loved one as soon as they return home.
At the front of the team is a soul master riding a tall horse. From the epaulettes on his body, it can be seen that his status in the army is not low. Ye Ming learned from the soldiers that he was the commander of the Soul Town Defense Corps, named Shi. Yong is a sixth-ring soul emperor and a close confidant of the Lord of the Soul-Suppressing City.
As the team continued to advance, after half a day, Ye Ming and his party finally arrived at Soul Town City. They saw Shi Yong in front of him saying to the survivors behind him.
"People of Dou Ling, I am deeply saddened by what happened last night. I will continue to track down the murderer and avenge everyone. But life must go on. I hope you can escape the shadow of this tragedy as soon as possible and reintegrate. Go to your new home in Zhenhun City. Someone will come to register your information later, and someone will also take care of your future livelihood. I would like to say goodbye to you first."
As soon as Shi Yong finished speaking, he saw someone asking questions below.
"General Shi, I don't care about the arrangements. I just want to know who was the murderer last night?"
The person who spoke was a middle-aged man, his face that should have been honest was full of hatred.
His words acted as a primer to arouse the anger of the crowd.
"Yes, General Shi, we just want to know the murderer!"
"Yes, who is the murderer?"
"My family died tragically, and I just want to avenge them."
Seeing the crowd gradually getting out of control, the adjutant beside Shi Yong comforted them
"Don't get excited, everyone must give us some time to check. I..."
He was interrupted before he finished speaking.
"Chasing again? You always say this every time I encounter something about soul masters. Why don't you tell us the truth?"
"Yes, we want the truth"
"The truth!" "The truth!"
……
After entering the city, Ye Ming quietly left the team and slipped out. Listening to the crowd in the distance shouting the truth, Ye Ming's understanding of the world deepened.
After all, there are only a few people who can become soul masters in this world, and the vast majority are ordinary civilians without soul rings. Faced with the inhuman power of soul masters, especially powerful soul masters, they who know too many truths will actually despair.
Therefore, in order not to cause panic, various countries will more or less hide things about the soul master world from civilians. It is estimated that in the impression of these civilians, soul masters just stand on the ring and release soul skills, and they are not much better than ordinary people...
Ye Ming headed towards the center of the city, where the city lord's palace was. He wanted to ask for news about the Qian family as soon as possible, and then leave as soon as possible. How rampant they are can be seen from the fact that the evil soul masters dare to slaughter the town in an upright manner. Ye Ming thinks that he is weak, so he does not want to get involved in this matter at the moment.
At this time, he had restored his original appearance. After all, he had to be sincere when asking for help, and his disguise seemed a bit ridiculous in front of the Soul Saint, so he simply took off the mask to reveal his original appearance.
A quarter of an hour later, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion saw a "young man" who was comparable in stature to himself but had a very immature face walking towards him.
"Anyone who comes, stop here! This is the city lord's palace. You can come here if you have nothing to do."
The guard stopped Ye Ming, but after seeing Ye Ming's burly figure, he gave up the idea of driving him out. After all, he knew that some soul masters might have an impact on their appearance because of their special martial souls, so he didn't know the other party's details before he knew it. Choose caution
Ye Ming looked at the guard in front of him and cupped his hands.
"Of course I have something important to come here this time. Please give this letter to the city lord."
The guard looked at the letter in the young man's hand and did not take it.
"Sorry, the city lord has arranged not to receive foreign guests today. Little brother, please come back another day."
Ye Ming frowned when he heard this. He didn't want to give up. After all, the sooner there was news about the Qian family, he might be able to see his father sooner. Then he took out two coins.
"Brother, please be accommodating. You just need to send this letter to the city lord."
The guard wanted to refuse, but he hesitated again when he saw the two gold soul coins. Two gold soul coins were enough for him to drink a lot of wine.
"Hey, forget it, you better not lie. If you cause me to be scolded, I guarantee you will never be able to enter this door again."
The guard put away the gold soul coin and the letter, and did not forget to threaten him before leaving.
Ye Ming looked at the guards who were gradually running away and stood there waiting quietly. Naturally, he was not worried that the city lord would not see him. After all, he learned from Lao Laqi that he was very kind to Mu Tao, who was still a student, in his early years. I think Lao Laqi Qi’s recommendation is sure to be foolproof.
Sure enough, after Ye Ming waited for a while, he saw the guard from before running over in a hurry, followed by an old man who seemed to be a housekeeper.
"Little brother, please invite me. The city lord is still discussing matters. Little brother, you can follow me to the side hall to wait."
Ye Ming cupped his hands and followed the housekeeper into the city lord's mansion.
The entire City Lord's Mansion occupies a very large area, and Ye Ming feels as if he has walked into a manor.
The corridor inside was winding like a maze. Looking at the carved dragons, phoenixes and exquisite ornaments, Ye Ming, who saw such a worldly scene for the first time, was amazed and almost lost his way. Fortunately, the old housekeeper in front often stopped and waited, otherwise he would have just Ye Ming was afraid that he would be in a big embarrassment at this point.
When the old housekeeper saw Ye Ming looking east and west, he just shook his head and smiled. After all, this city lord's mansion is different from other city lord's mansions. Naturally, it is luxurious because the city lord inside has a distinguished status that is not comparable to that of ordinary city lords in the main city.
The old butler's attitude was very gentle. He led Ye Ming while introducing the origin and origin of each scene. Ye Ming was so surprised that he praised him repeatedly, and even the sadness of the previous encounter with the evil soul master was diluted a bit.
Finally, after traveling all the way, the old housekeeper led Ye Ming into a side hall.
"Little brother, you can rest and wait here. I will go to the front hall first and wait for the city lord to finish business before I inform little brother."
“Old housekeeper, walk slowly”
Watching the old butler gradually disappear, Ye Ming scorned the evil nobles in his heart while looking at the side hall in front of him. He saw that the palace was magnificent and magnificent, and even the furniture was very exquisite in workmanship and was worth a lot of money at a glance.
“I always feel like this is a bit too luxurious.”
Ye Ming was impressed and also discovered some abnormalities. The city lord's mansion was luxurious, but there were too few servants inside. Ye Ming recalled that he didn't seem to encounter a few servants on the way, which was very important to him. It is really unreasonable for an extremely luxurious city lord's mansion.
has a problem!
Suddenly Ye Ming heard movement behind him...
