"Finally... is it over?"
Among the ruins, Yu Jian tumbled out in embarrassment, looking at the blood and fire around him with a dull expression.
"Yes... it's over!"
Li Hu finally let go of the handle of the knife and looked at the city wall that was blooming again with a look of sadness on his face: "I never expected that even in Xingluo City, there would be such a thrilling scene!"
"I once heard that adult say..."
Yu Jian's eyes gradually lit up: "The strength of a country does not lie in the dangers of mountains and rivers, but in the people's hearts!"
"People's hearts?"
Li Hu looked at this scene and seemed to have some realization.
"Yes, I want to go back!"
Yu Jian clenched his fists: "I want to turn our village into the strongest village nearby. Not even ice beasts dare to offend, or even the second Xingluo City!"
The young man didn't know what stimulated him, so he gave up his plan to move to Xingluo City and started to set new goals.
"Well... very good! But, before that... "
Li Hu's forehead seemed to have crossed a black line: "Should we treat our injuries first and then join the villagers?"
"Um?"
At this time, Yu Jian discovered that there was a hideous wound on his thigh that was almost bone-shattering. He couldn't help but scream and collapsed on the ground...
…
"So this is the City Lord's Mansion?"
At the same time, Fang Yuan put his hands behind his hands and looked around the large buildings outside like a master.
"good… "
Next to him, the blind monk Kongming looked like a dog-legged person, respectfully leading the way.
"As far as I know, the library and treasure house of the previous city lord...the treasures of more than ten generations are all here!"
"Oh? They're all mine now!"
Fang Yuan smiled: "What do you think should be done to take over his power as quickly as possible?"
Kongming Divine Monk thought about it seriously: "The previous city lord had two martial arts masters. As his right-hand men, all of them have died at this time. As for the array masters, apart from him, the only one left is Lao Na. He can convince other apprentices... So as long as the city lord Your Excellency, please call the top officials in the city and show off your skills a little, and you will be able to overwhelm them all!"
"I see!"
Fang Yuan looked around and saw that there were already many soldiers surrounding him with nervous expressions on their faces.
"But I think it's best to solve it neatly!"
He waved his hand, and the entire city lord's mansion was shaken.
Hoho!
Ouch!
The three spirits of Qinglong, White Tiger and Xuanwu suddenly appeared, occupying the triangle, exuding power wantonly.
Although they are not worth anything to Fang Yuan, to everyone in the city lord's mansion, they are undoubtedly gods in the sky, and they are proof of strength and authority!
"what happened?"
"This is... a three-phase array?"
"Didn't the City Lord go to deal with the Wuzong? Why did he surround the City Lord's Mansion again?"
…
The movement was so big that countless demons and monsters were suddenly awakened. They were all array masters who had completed the twelve levels of martial arts, and were even at the level of spiritual disciples. When they saw that it was Fang Yuan who controlled the three spirits, their expressions suddenly changed: "Why is it you? Lord City Lord Woolen cloth?"
"City Lord?"
Fang Yuan smiled slightly: "From today on, I am the city lord! Those who obey me live, and those who go against me die! Why don't you kneel down and surrender?"
"Arrogant!"
"madman!"
"This man is crazy!"
"But why does Monk Kongming follow him... Damn, I really knelt down!"
…
All the high-level officials looked at each other with a bad feeling.
Several people on the edge began to retreat in shock.
"Ho ho ho!"
As soon as the green dragon flicked its tail, a warrior who had completed the twelve levels was immediately thrown to the wall and turned into a puddle of mud.
"Ho ho ho!"
On the other side, the white tiger roared, and its huge claws fell, directly cutting a runaway into several pieces.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
A female warrior immediately knelt down: "My little lady is willing to surrender!"
With the first one taking the lead, the others suddenly fell short like wheat.
…
After a while.
In the study, the monk Kongming sighed quietly.
"What? Do you think I've gone too far?"
Fang Yuan flipped through a martial arts scripture in his hand, and what was recorded was the "Dragon and Tiger Protective Seal" technique. He raised his head and smiled when he heard this.
"The city lord used thunderous means to frighten the disobedient, which is naturally very good! But the means are too cruel and not suitable to win over people's hearts and facilitate future rule..."
Kongming Divine Monk persuaded Fang Yuan with earnest words, and seemed to really consider Fang Yuan wholeheartedly.
"I understand the use of both soft and hard tactics..."
Fang Yuan opened the window and looked at the sentient beings outside.
At this moment, as long as he stretched out his hand, the entire city seemed to be at his fingertips.
But what is this city compared to Youguo
I don't even care about You Country, how can I give up my ambitions and plans just because of a mere city
"The sparrow knows the ambition of the swan..."
He shook his head and said directly: "We will inspect the treasure house later!"
"As you command!"
Kongming Divine Monk pursed his lips and resigned helplessly.
Fang Yuan was left alone, looking around the entire library. Occasionally, a light flashed from his hand, and several ancient books disappeared.
"Hmm... The books in this library, several books on martial arts are good, and the few volumes of formation experience can definitely train spiritual formation masters... Of course, the most important thing is these maps, which are enough for me to guess a way to Daqian. The road is gone…”
After searching the library, Fang Yuan came to the City Lord's treasure house.
This is where most of the Xingluo City Lord's life savings are stored.
Unfortunately, for the wealthy Fang Yuan, he really looked down upon him.
"Um?"
However, I found a little surprise in the corner.
"This is... Yuanjing?"
He looked at the thumb-sized, translucent crystal in front of him with a little joy on his face.
This is the common currency in the cultivation world of Daqian World. It is very popular because it can quickly replenish the energy of spiritual warriors and warriors, and can replace the consumption of formations and spiritual weapons.
"Although the quality is average and can only be considered low-grade, the good thing is that the quantity is large enough, tens of thousands of dollars, which is a considerable fortune in Yang Fan's memory... Move away, move away!"
With the Mountain and River Pearl in hand, Fang Yuan suddenly transformed into a glutton, leaving almost nothing behind wherever he passed.
"Even garbage has its value. Anyway, my Shanhe Pearl storage space is large enough, so I can store as much as I can..."
With this mentality, when the monk Kongming came in again, he was speechless for a long time when he saw the mouse running into the treasure house that was about to cry.
"Lord City Lord, what are you..."
Although he has no eyes, he has spiritual thoughts and can see more clearly than ordinary people. At this time, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Even if he has stored spiritual treasures, it doesn't have to be like this, right?"
"alright!"
Fang Yuan was satisfied, with a hint of narrow-mindedness on his face: "In the name of the Lord of Xingluo City, I issue the first order!"
"Please give me your orders!"
Kong Ming immediately bowed down solemnly.
"Well, I appoint you as the acting city lord. During my absence, you will handle all matters related to Xingluo City!"
Fang Yuan waved his hand, and a brilliance flashed on the ground, and the star core emerged, adding a hint of emptiness.
In fact, this gives him certain authority to mobilize the four-phase spiritual formation.
"What? You want to leave?"
Kong Ming had vague guesses before, but now he is finally sure.
Precisely because Fang Yuan was leaving, he didn't care at all what kind of mess he would leave behind!
But at least the other party did not take away the star core together, finally leaving a way for the people in the city to survive.
"Of course... my journey cannot be accommodated by the mere Starfall City!"
Fang Yuan waved his hand and left without hesitation.
"well… "
Kongming Divine Monk watched Fang Yuan leave with empty eyes, and suddenly sighed quietly.
It is really enviable to be so cool and calm, unmoved by external things.
It's a pity that he has concerns, but he can't reach such a state.
If hell is not empty, I will never become a Buddha! This is not only an oath, but also his obsession!
…
Stars set outside the city.
Fang Yuan unfolded a map.
This was collected from the private collection of the Lord of Xingluo City, and the record is far more detailed than before.
"To go to Daqian, you still need to pass through thirteen dangerous places. Among them, only three can be inhabited and have cities, namely the Hanhai Desert, the Corridor of Death, and the Wangui Stream..."
Fang Yuan shook his head.
The ancestors of the Xingluo City Lord and the Kongming Divine Monk were the ones who stayed away from Daqian the most. They were only one ice valley away from reaching the Yuanwu Continent, and they were thousands of miles away from Daqian.
"But as long as you know the direction, you'll be fine!"
Fang Yuan has strong confidence in this.
He has even made it through the most difficult Ice Valley. Since even the ancestors of Xingluo City can cross the thirteen dangerous places ahead, it is naturally not a problem for him.
"Let's go!"
Taking one last look at Xingluo City, Fang Yuan turned around without hesitation and strode away.
Not far away, next to the gate.
Yu Jian, Li Hu and his party escorted the goods, and with a look of sadness on their faces, they also slowly left Xingluo City.
Although they had the help of noble people before, they not only sold the goods, but also received a large amount of compensation, but in the subsequent disaster, several villagers were still affected and died horribly.
Faced with this, a group of villagers could only collect the corpses hastily, without even talking about revenge, and the atmosphere in the team became a bit depressing.
"Alas...this is life!"
Li Hu sighed: "Let's go! Although Da Zhuang and the others are dead, we have to share the proceeds from this work with their families!"
"That's exactly what it means!"
Even other young men are not willing to work hard by themselves, and their family members will not receive pension after death. They immediately praised loudly, and looked at Li Hu with a hint of gratitude.
As the leader, Li Hu looked quite calm and looked at Yu Jian: "Let's go, stop reading..."
"Oh well!"
Yu Jian has become much calmer since the accident. After hearing this, he immediately closed the book in his hand, his hands still trembling: "I'll come right away!"
In my heart, I was still shocked: "The secret of martial arts! And it is far more sophisticated than the street goods in the village! As expected, wealth must be gained through danger..."
He looked at Xingluo City, with a complicated look in his eyes: "Xingluo City... I will definitely come again!"
