Lu Jie took three steps at a time and walked in front of Gou Qi. The city lord of Beixing was dressed in blue water brocade and always had a warm smile on his face. However, Su Wenlun, who had followed him back, did not come with him. Instead, he took a detour back to his seat and sat down with Sha Cang without saying a word.

At that time, Tai Kun had just stood up from the ground. His face was a little angry, but he couldn't say anything. If Lu Jie hadn't spoken in time, he didn't know how long he would have been oppressed by Gou Qi.

But the problem was that he and Lu Jie didn't deal with each other at all, and didn't want to see the man's proud face at all, so he moved a few steps aside, looking up and squinting at him the whole time.

"My lord, what happened?" Lu Jie didn't care. He just smiled softly and asked Gou Qi. As he spoke, he turned sideways and looked at Tai Kun aside, with a look of concern on his face, "City Lord Tai, you are Why did you make the Lord unhappy? Could it be that you committed something?"

When Tai Kun heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched. Before Gou Qi could answer, he saw him speak first.

"Committing a crime? City Lord Lu is so malicious. He didn't even say hello, so he let me take such a big blame?"

"Well." Lu Jie took a breath in surprise and quickly covered his mouth to apologize, "Did I forget to say hello? Oh, look at my memory, make it up, I'll make it up right away! City Lord Tai is doing well lately. Ah, I wonder if you have gone shopping in the past few days? Nanyue is short of materials, so you should bring more things back to avoid starving to death on the way."

Lu Jie said he was saying hello, but he was very perfunctory. His movements and tone were very exaggerated and dramatic. He seemed caring and caring, but in fact, his words were thorny and went straight to Taikun's pain points. Lou Xinzhou was stunned for a moment.

"I thought he was..."

Lou Xinzhou sighed a little, but the words were clearly on her lips. After a long pause but unable to speak, Xiao Zhu interrupted her with a chuckle.

"Thought he was a gentle man?"

After hearing this, Lou Xinzhou nodded in agreement.

"It would be true if he didn't speak." Xiao Zhu introduced her with a smile, "Lu Jie followed us when the master was still the leader of Tianhele. He used to be a street gangster and was very good at talking."

Lou Xinzhou was a little surprised. He looked at the people under the high seat for a long time, and finally sighed softly.

"can not tell."

As far as Lu Jie's overall temperament is concerned, he really has nothing to do with street gangsters.

"You, you, you, you, what do you mean!" Tai Kun almost went crazy with Lu Jie's words, but remembering that this was Qizhong City, he restrained his anger to some extent. He closed his sleeves and waved, and then said coldly He snorted, "City Lord Lu lives in Beixing and lives a comfortable life. It's just that you don't understand my difficulties. What about City Lord Su?"

Su Wenlun was sitting and watching the show. Just when he was about to lower his head and talk to Sha Cang, his name was suddenly mentioned, and his whole body trembled with fright.

Yunyue City and Nanyue are very close, so the conditions are naturally not much better. Moreover, restricted by the Sea of ​​Corruption, the habitable area is very limited. Apart from Nanyue, its development conditions are the most demanding.

Su Wenlun and Lu Jie were very close, so Lu Jie was obviously stunned after hearing Tai Kun's words, and then looked at the Lord of Yunyue City sitting below, as if asking for his opinion.

After Gou Qi came back from Lu Jie, he returned to the high seat alone. He didn't care about the farce caused by Tai Kun. He only raised his eyes again when Tai Kun mentioned Su Wenlun.

For a moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Su Wenlun, the lord of Yunyue City.

Su Wenlun never expected that this would be the result. His whole body tensed up, and then he shook his head vigorously and quickly stated his position.

But Tai Kun was not willing to let him go, so he laughed when he saw this.

"City Master Su, just now at the banquet table, Lin Feng and I were discussing the enfeoffment of the city. Although you were not involved, you heard it from beginning to end, with a look of empathy on your face. What's wrong? Now you don't dare to admit it?"

After hearing this, Su Wenlun became even more panicked. He quickly stood up and walked forward to salute Gou Qi.

"My lord, I have no complaints about this."

"okay."

Gou Qi spoke coldly. Seeing the panic on Su Wenlun's face, he understood everything in his heart. He raised the porcelain cup made of red stone with his pale fingers, as if snow had fallen on the blood, but he did not see any other movements. , Su Wenlun, who was kneeling under the high seat, was suddenly suppressed by spiritual pressure and could not move.

Everyone in the audience was shocked. Sha Cang stood up from the seat in shock. He looked incomprehensible and couldn't help shouting.

"Lord!"

Lu Jie was also confused and turned to look at Gou Qi, who took a leisurely sip of spiritual wine before standing up to clean up the mess.

He walked slowly down from the high seat. When he passed by Tai Kun, he glanced at him with unknown meaning. The latter turned away with a guilty conscience, and then stopped in front of Su Wenlun.

"Do you have anything else to say?"

"I wonder what I did wrong?"

Su Wenlun was covered in black clothes. Under the strong pressure, almost his entire body was pressed tightly against the ground. He was very embarrassed, and his words seemed to be squeezed out of his chest.

Seeing that Su Wenlun still didn't speak, the pressure of the Tribulation became more pure, and the people on the ground were caught off guard and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Pfft! I, I was confused for a moment! I had a wrong idea and made a mistake!" Su Wenlun immediately gave up and did not care about anything else. He quickly changed his words, "Please, please forgive me! Please forgive me! Please forgive me!" I don’t dare anymore!”

When Lu Jie and Sha Cang heard this, their expressions changed in unison, with surprise in their eyes. Although they didn't know what Su Wenlun had done, at this moment, both of them felt the same way, disappointed and angry.

"Made something wrong? What did you do?"

Lu Jie asked in a deep voice.

Gou Qi withdrew his spiritual pressure, his gray eyes showing no emotion.

Without the terrifying pressure, Su Wenlun could finally move. However, just as he was about to get up from the ground, he was kicked dozens of meters away by a powerful force. In an instant, his internal organs were completely shattered, and he rolled on the ground for an unknown amount of time. Then he reluctantly raised his head, his eyes filled with fear and despair, and he struggled to utter a few vague words, which seemed to be begging for mercy.

"Why are you sure it's him?"

Lou Xinzhou was a little confused. Gou Qi locked the target without saying a few words from beginning to end. What was his basis?

"Remember what I analyzed for you before." Xiao Zhu explained, "The Lord of Yunyue City is a deep-minded person. Although he always walks with Lu Jie and the others, he is not considered one of his own family members."

Xiao Zhu looked at the struggling bloody man lying on the ground and sneered.

"Actually, he is Jun Lian's man. Even Lu Jie and the others are kept in the dark about this."

"Then how did you know?"

"Their little moves cannot be hidden from the Lord."

"Is this so..."

"So, do you understand what I said?"

After listening to Xiao Zhu's explanation, Lou Xinzhou became somewhat clear.

Jun Lian was tortured and killed by Gou Qi because of his second thoughts, and Su Wenlun, who followed him in line, could not guarantee his loyalty.

What's more, judging from what Tai Kun just said, Su Wenlun is also dissatisfied with the city's enfeoffment, and presumably has been grudged against Gou Qi for a long time.

"However, it's not certain that it's him. It only proves that he has a motive."
