When Shan Youde arrived at the top of the city wall, just as Zhang Ting had said, he saw a large group of people below, about three or four hundred in number, both men and women, old and young.
Moreover, as soon as the fat man was seen, the city gate, which had been quite quiet a moment ago, suddenly became noisy. The discussions and shouting flooded the place like a wave.
"Fatty, we are here to buy a shop and do business, why don't you let us in?"
"Yes, we just yearn for the prosperity of Shura City and want to settle here. Why are you trying to stop us? If you don't give us a reasonable explanation today, don't blame us for being rude."
"You are so wicked. After all, we were brothers in the same sect. You can't be so ruthless!"
Looking at the crowd below, Shan Youde's face was as gloomy as water. He had already found out the purpose of these people clearly. To put it nicely, they came to settle down and do business, but in fact they wanted to settle in Shura City and then secretly cause trouble to make Shura City restless.
"This city lord let you go a few times because we were all from the same sect. I thought you could take care of yourself, but you didn't repent and became even worse. I will give you one last chance. Get out of here immediately. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude!"
Shan Youde shouted coldly, and a surge of pressure burst out, rolling towards the crowd below like a wave. He looked quite majestic, and the city guards around him couldn't help but look at him with admiration.
On weekdays, Shan Youde spent his days eating, drinking, gambling, and doing nothing. He did not leave a good impression on the guards, who only thought that he had a good relationship with the palace master, which was how he climbed to the position of deputy city lord.
"Deputy City Lord, don't give them any chances, just kill them!" said a guard, bowing and clasping his fists.
"Yes, even the top sects in various continents don't dare to come to Shura City to cause trouble. A group of small minions actually dare to come again and again. I think they are too ambitious."
"Deputy City Lord, we can't continue to indulge them. No matter what, we must teach them a painful lesson this time."
The guards all around spoke indignantly. They were all talents carefully selected by Zhang Ting in the past two years. Their cultivation was basically around the Hundred Dynasties period. It could be said that as soon as the battle started, the group of rabble below would retreat like mounds.
"How can such a fussy person manage a city? It seems that I have to discuss with Han Tian and the others. The deputy city lord of Shura City needs to be replaced by someone who is decisive and resolute!"
Suddenly, a cold voice came from a distance, accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air. Zhang Ting quickly flew over from a distance and landed next to Shan Youde. He rolled his eyes at him, then glanced at the crowd below, and a strong murderous intent burst out of his beautiful eyes.
"Greetings, Lord City Lord!"
When they saw Zhang Ting approaching, the guards on the city wall hurriedly knelt on one knee and bowed to him, with respectful expressions and fiery eyes, as if they were looking at an idol.
In order to manage Shura City, Zhang Ting has put in a lot of effort in the past two years. Over time, her style of doing things has become more and more like Wujiteng's. She is swift, resolute and decisive. In addition, she is beautiful and kind to her own people, so she is deeply loved by the people.
After hearing Zhang Ting's words, Shan Youde seemed to be stimulated. His face flushed and smoke came out of his head. He swung his arm, which was as thick as an ordinary person's thigh, and shouted, "Kill them all. Don't spare a single one. Kill them all for this city lord!"
"Yes, sir!"
Hundreds of guards responded respectfully and stood up together. With the sound of clanging, they held spiritual weapons in their hands, spread their wings of light, and rushed towards the crowd below.
A chaotic battle started, but the dead were mostly the remnants of the Yan Sect and Huoyun Sect...
Above the Nine Heavens, Wu Tian stood in a cloud of mist, looking down, shaking his head and saying, "I never thought that this little girl would become the Lord of Shura City."
In the past two years, Wutan has been in seclusion in the Star Realm, one is to repair his injuries, the other is to comprehend the Yuan Magic Rain. After two years of hard work, he finally comprehended it thoroughly, and condensed a magical talisman in his sea of consciousness.
Just as he walked out of the Star Realm and wanted to go to the Wanbao Pavilion, he didn't expect to run into this scene.
"More than that! Her personality and methods are exactly the same as yours. In my opinion, she definitely hasn't forgotten you and is still secretly in love with you in her heart." The little guy teased.
"If you still want to go to the Star Realm, just keep talking." Wutan looked at him with an unfriendly expression.
Upon hearing this, the little guy immediately shut up and looked away, as if it had nothing to do with me.
"But it's strange. How could the remnants of the Yan Sect and the Huoyun Sect gather together to come to Shura City to cause trouble? And from what they said, this has happened more than once or twice." The Insect King asked in confusion.
Upon hearing this, the little guy immediately became interested and asked anxiously, "You mean, there is someone behind them?"
"Not sure. The strongest of these people is only at the Hundred Dynasties stage. They can't cause any harm to Shura City. But why do they keep coming here to cause trouble?" The Insect King said thoughtfully.
"It's a sneaky move. I don't think the person behind it is a strong man. Besides, this is just your guess. It may not be the real person. Let's go! It's time to go to Wanbao Pavilion to deal with the business." Wutan shook his head.
"Aren't you going to help them?" the little guy asked in surprise.
"Do you need my help?" Wu Tian asked back.
"That's right, they are just a bunch of minions. We can solve them all by being kind and virtuous!" The little guy nodded, thinking it made sense. He rolled his eyes and said with a chuckle, "Just in case, the Insect King and I won't go. We will stay here to protect Sister Zhang Ting."
After glancing at it, Wutan didn't say much. His mind locked onto Dongfang Xiao's location. His figure flashed and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
"who?!"
When Wutan appeared in a private room, an exaggerated scream immediately rang out.
Dongfang Xiao was seen squatting on the chair, curled up like a weak woman who met a pervert, with a panicked look on his face. If Wutan did not have a certain understanding of him, it would be hard to believe that he was a strong man in the Divine Transformation Period.
"It's you!" After seeing clearly that it was Wutan, Dongfang Xiao jumped off the chair, patted his chest, looking extremely frightened.
"Have you done anything wrong?" Wutan glanced at him.
"Bah! You are the one who did something wrong." Dongfang Xiao's face darkened, and he muttered unhappily, "You are so mysterious, you scared my little darling. It's good that I didn't ask you for compensation, but you dared to suspect that I did something wrong. You are really not a human being."
Wu Tian asked suspiciously: "Then why are you so startled?"
"Don't mention it. Ever since that woman showed up, nothing has gone well for me. It's so damn unlucky. I shouldn't have provoked her if I had known." Dongfang Xiao shook his head and sighed, then sat down on the chair without entertaining Wutan. He just rubbed his forehead, with a bitter face and a haggard look.
Wu Tian laughed in silence, then walked to the side and sat down, jokingly saying, "What kind of woman can give the head of the Wanbao Pavilion such a headache? I'm really curious, tell me about it!"
Rolling his eyes, Dongfang Xiao made a cup of tea, took a sip, and then simply explained the situation.
It turned out that half a year ago, a woman came to Wanbao Pavilion to buy the king medicine, but she didn't have enough essence on her. After some trouble, Dongfang Xiao came forward. Seeing the pitiful appearance of the woman, he felt soft-hearted for a moment, so he acted as a good man, confiscated her essence and let her leave.
He thought it was just a small matter, but unexpectedly, a month later, this woman suddenly appeared and said that she must marry Dongfang Xiao. Dongfang Xiao really couldn't accept this big surprise that fell from the sky, and so the conflict began.
Moreover, surprisingly, this woman was not pitiful at all, but had a prominent background. She was a princess of the Great Yan Dynasty. The status of the Great Yan Dynasty in Zhongyaozhou was only slightly weaker than that of the former Great Confucian Dynasty. Now that the Great Confucian Dynasty was destroyed, it deservedly became the number one dynasty.
Normally, being favored by a princess of an imperial dynasty should be a good thing, and this princess was also very beautiful. However, Dongfang Xiao refused to agree no matter what. As a result, the conflict between the two became more and more intense, and from time to time, the princess would come to trouble him, which led to the scene when Wutan just came in.
"The other party is a woman, I can't possibly kill her!" Dongfang Xiao said helplessly.
Wu Tian shook his head and said, "It's a good thing that someone likes you and wants to marry you! Don't look so sad."
"Tsk, I'm only 18 years old this year, and I'm looking for a woman to restrain myself. Isn't that digging my own grave? Only a fool would do such a thing." Dongfang Xiao was full of disdain, and then his face straightened and said, "Tell me! What do you want from me?"
Wu Tian rolled his eyes with contempt. Han Tian was already narcissistic enough, but compared to Dongfang Xiao, he was nothing but a dwarf and not worth mentioning at all.
After calming down, Wu Tian spoke calmly and expectantly: "This time I came to you mainly to ask if Wanbao Pavilion has any imperial-level restrictions. If so, I am willing to pay double the price!"
"The rumors are true. You have really broken through to the imperial level." Dongfang Xiao looked at him deeply, pondered for a moment, frowned and said, "There are two imperial level prohibitions in Wanbao Pavilion, but they are only illusion prohibitions and trapped prohibitions."
"No killing ban?" Wutan frowned. Although he had prepared himself mentally, he was still a little disappointed with this result.
Seeing this, Dongfang Xiao's eyes turned and he chuckled, "I believe you know the importance of the Imperial Killing Forbidden Item better than anyone else. Maybe no one else has it except the Forbidden Sect. Why don't you go to the Forbidden Sect again? If you have a good tone, you might be able to get one or two."
Upon hearing this, Wu Tian simply ignored it and asked, "Is it possible that there is no chance of finding it even if we search across several continents?"
"If you're not in a hurry, I can send someone to look for it, but don't count on it in the end, because it's just a matter of luck."
“Boom boom!”
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. Dongfang Xiao frowned and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
With a creaking sound, a young woman pushed the door open and walked in. She glanced at Wu Tian, and immediately a trace of suspicion flashed in her eyes. After hearing a cough, the woman dared not look any further. She hurriedly walked in front of Dongfang Xiao, took out a letter from her arms and handed it to him, saying respectfully: "Master, this is a letter from a woman to you. Let me pass it to you."
"What woman?" Dongfang Xiao took the letter, looked at it and asked in confusion.
"She left after leaving a letter. I didn't even have time to ask her anything." The woman said truthfully, but her eyes were always on Wutan, and the doubt in her eyes became more and more intense.
"Okay, you can go down!" Dongfang Xiao waved his hand.
"Yes." The woman responded respectfully. When she turned around, she looked at Wutan again. She seemed to remember something. A hint of shock suddenly rose in her eyes, but she did not dare to stay any longer and hurried out of the private room.
After the woman left, Dongfang Xiao opened the envelope, took out a folded paper, opened it and looked at it carefully. Gradually, his expression became extremely strange and he remained silent for a long time.
"What's wrong?" Wutan couldn't help but ask. Seeing that he didn't respond, he curiously took the letter paper from his hand and looked at it puzzled. As a result, the expression on his face became exactly the same as Dongfang Xiao's.
