Lu Li and Sun Huang walked out of the palace and met Wen Zhengrong, who was wearing a dark gold mask.
Wen Zhengrong's eyes hidden under his visor looked a little sinister, and they immediately locked onto Lu Li.
And because Lu Li was standing in front of the main entrance of the underground palace, on top of hundreds of stairs, if Wen Zhengrong wanted to see him, he had to raise his head and look up.
This feeling made Wen Zhengrong very uncomfortable. Even the Xuantie killers behind him were dissatisfied and wanted to say something.
However, Wen Zhengrong raised his hand to stop him.
Wen Zhengrong took a deep breath and said, "Are you the newly appointed four leaders of the Earth Department?"
In front of the main hall, Lu Li smiled and said, "If it's not me, how can it be you?"
After a simple conversation, the tension between the two became too strong to be resolved.
Wen Zhengrong did not get angry because of this, but instead showed a smile, "He is indeed a young talent. The four leaders are able to hold high positions at a young age. They must be something special. I don't know what they are doing by appointing me this time." What kind of mission is accomplished?”
He still had no choice to fall out with Lu Li now.
After all, Lu Li is still the leader of the Earth Tribe. On the surface, Wen Zhengrong is his subordinate. Even if he is dissatisfied in his heart, he still has to act obedient on the surface.
Seeing that he actually held back this tone, Lu Li thought to himself: "It seems that he is not a fool after all."
"But that's right. If you were a fool, how could you have been able to have such a smooth journey in the earth?"
Thinking of this, Lu Liyun said calmly: "The specific details of the mission should have been sent to your jade slip. Seeing that you have so many black iron killers behind you, are they the ones you found to complete the mission? That makes sense. Okay, it also saves me some effort. You will lead them to complete this mission, and there will be no room for failure."
The last four words, Lu Li's tone increased, causing Wen Zhengrong's brows hidden under the mask to jump slightly. He didn't expect Lu Li to be so cruel. He didn't hesitate to offend so many Black Iron killers and didn't give him a chance to speak. .
You must know that there are not many killers in the Imperial City branch. The ones Wen Zhengrong was able to contact in a hurry and command and move were all his confidants who had been operating for many years.
This also gives him the confidence to compete with the headquarters for power in the future.
If one or two more earth elements are born among these killers, and Wen Zhengrong himself can get a sky crystal mask, he may not be able to compete for the position of the fourth leader.
It's a pity that Lu Li came before he could finish these calculations.
And judging from Lu Li's appearance, he didn't seem to be very afraid of his 'demonstration', and didn't understand the importance of winning people's hearts at all.
"Four leaders, it seems that there is no need to dispatch so many black iron killers for a collective mission." Finally, Wen Zhengrong still refused to follow Lu Li's arrangements step by step, so he stood up and said in a deep voice, wanting to seize the initiative.
His pair of sinister eyes stared at Lu Li, and he said word by word: "A normal collective mission, with the Earth Yuan Killer leading the team, only needs to select about five Black Iron Killers to complete it. The leader this time If a dozen of us are asked to go together, is there something fishy in the mission?"
"Or maybe the four leaders, as soon as they came to power, were eager to open up the situation and wanted us old men in the branch to die?"
At the end of the day, hearing Zhengrong's remarks was a bit heartbreaking.
Although there are no other killers here for the time being, as long as this principle remains true, Lu Li's situation in the Imperial Capital branch will be very bad in the future.
"Are you questioning my decision?" Lu Li still had a smile on his face, but there was something cold in his smile.
Sun Huang, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but shudder and couldn't look away.
Wen Zhengrong chuckled: "The leader is serious in his words. The subordinates are not questioning it, but they just feel that there is no need to waste so much manpower on a simple task."
"Oh? Since you think this is a waste, fine." Lu Li nodded, not meaning any nonsense, and said directly: "Ye Dongtian, you will lead the team this time and arrange these black iron killers for me. understand?"
He shouted something towards the depths of the hall.
The smile on Wen Zhengrong's face froze slightly, but then he smiled even more heartily.
This young man really couldn't keep his temper.
"Ye Dongtian is strong and the Ye family has a strong background, but he is still a black iron killer and his level is lower than mine. Want to replace me with Ye Dongtian?" Wen Zhengrong almost laughed out loud. , I just felt that Lu Li had taken a wrong step.
at this time.
A figure walked out of the hall.
Seeing the visor on his face, Wen Zhengrong's smile immediately froze on his face, with an incredulous expression.
Ye Dongtian casually took off the dark gold visor and said expressionlessly: "I just got the visor, now you want me to go on a group mission?"
Lu Li smiled and said: "Those who are capable work hard. What's more, some people here think that it is a waste to send more people for collective tasks. In this case, I will change someone to lead the team. What do you think?"
There was no avoidance in these words. Wen Zhengrong opened his mouth and wanted to refute something. Ye Dongtian had already nodded and said, "Then I will lead the team."
Then he looked at the Black Iron killers expressionlessly: "Who is dissatisfied?"
The black iron killers were silent.
Wen Zhengrong clenched his fists but did not look back.
He knew that the reason why these black iron killers followed him was mostly due to his own strength and the Earth Elemental Mask.
However, although Ye Dongtian is still at the peak of Tongxuan, his strength has long been recognized by others, not to mention that he is still a member of the 'Ye family'.
In the entire ancient world, as long as there is a killer, who does not know the name of the Ye family
Who is so impatient that they would oppose the opinions expressed by the Ye family
So these black iron killers fell silent.
Ye Dongtian did not look at them anymore, but waved his hand to Lu Li, "Don't forget what you promised me."
When Lu Li heard this, he knew he was talking about the Book of God's Killing, so he nodded and said, "Don't worry."
So Ye Dongtian put on his upper armor, without even looking at Wen Zhengrong, he just passed him by and said: "If you don't want to die, hurry up and follow him."
The Black Iron killers hesitated for a moment, but someone immediately followed them.
As long as the first person leaves, the psychological burden on the others will be much lighter, and they will gradually follow.
Until the end, only the confidants who had been with him in the mansion from the beginning were left behind Wen Zhengrong, and the rest left with Ye Dongtian.
His face was livid, he looked at Lu Li, and then at Sun Huang who was beside Lu Li.
Sun Huang had an indifferent expression and shrugged: "He is the leader and his position is higher than yours. Isn't it obvious who to choose?"
Hearing these words, Wen Zhengrong was so angry that he almost vomited blood, and said angrily: "Okay! It's really good!"
"You, you..."
Wen Zhengrong's fists were clenched pale, and waves of zhenqi were emitted, as if he planned to kill these two people.
However, the only confidant left behind him quickly stood up and stopped him: "Boss, killing the leader here... is not a wise choice!"
"Where is the wisest choice to kill the leader?" Lu Li was amused by these words and couldn't help but ask.
The Xuantie killer froze, and many of the words that were on his lips were immediately suppressed.
"It turns out that all the available people around Wen Zhengrong are like this. If I had known, I wouldn't have made any blood oath."
Lu Li grinned, took one last deep look at Wen Zhengrong, and asked, "Have you gone to find the lost stone tablet in the Imperial Capital Branch?"
Wen Zhengrong snorted coldly, "Now that you are the leader, why do you need to ask me about this kind of thing?"
"Are you shirking responsibility?" Lu Li looked down upon Wen Zhengrong more and more.
Although he has the strength, it is a pity that he is not very smart and cannot even control the so-called confidants around him. The most important thing is that he wants to fight for power and gain, but he does not investigate in advance. He does not even know what happened to Ye Dongtian, so he just takes it with him. A group of black iron killers came to kill him.
Thinking of this, Lu Li lost interest for a while and said calmly: "If it is lost in your hands, you will naturally be responsible for it. I will give you three days to get that stone tablet back, otherwise you will hand over the mask yourself." Leave the Imperial City branch."
This sentence has torn apart the last bit of concealment between the two.
