When these words were spoken, everyone was shocked!
Ou Xiaomu and the others looked at Wu Tian strangely, as if to ask, "Do you know where you are now? Who are you facing? Can you not be so high-profile?"
The deputy city lord of Beixuan City also stood there in a daze, his expression frozen.
Obviously, he never expected that this brat's attitude would be so arrogant.
You have to know that with his status, no matter where he goes, he is worshipped and respected. Even the Dragon King and the Four Holy Lords have to show him some courtesy. Who would have thought that he would be so embarrassed by a little kid.
With a gloomy face, he said, "You don't owe me anything, and I don't have any deep hatred against you. But if you dare to continue to be so rude, even if the city lord is interested in you, I will not show any mercy."
His eyes flashed, and Wu Tian said with a smile: "Why should the deputy city lord be angry? I was just joking. If the deputy city lord still cares about this, then you are too broad-minded..."
"Narrow?" The deputy city lord smiled grimly and said these two words for him.
Wutan smiled faintly and didn't say anything.
He did this in order to test the temperaments of these top Eastern Territory masters. Now that he has gotten the answer, there is naturally no need to continue to make trouble.
Pointing at Gongsun Haoshu and the others, Wu Tian said calmly: "When I separated from them, I asked Yuan Doufeng about the situation of War Zone No. 1, and then we parted ways, so I don't know what happened afterwards."
Then, he added doubtfully, "Did something big happen after we left?"
"Nothing serious happened. It was just some small-time people who broke into the City Lord's Mansion and killed the steward Yuan Hanchi."
The deputy city lord's tone was flat, but with a hint of gloom, and as he said this, his eyes were fixed on Wutan's face, wanting to see his next reaction.
"What?" Upon hearing this, Wu Tian was horrified, and suddenly stood up from his chair and asked, "Who is so bold as to come to the City Lord's Mansion to kill people?"
"Just pretend! Pretending won't change the fact that you are the murderer."
When Ou Xiaomu and the others saw this, although they did not show any emotion on their faces, they were deeply contemptuous in their hearts. This shameless bastard is really a genius in acting.
The deputy city lord carefully looked at Wu Tian, and finally found no clues on his face. He said coldly: "You can go, but before finding Yuan Doufeng, you are not allowed to leave Beixuan City or go to the battlefield."
At this moment, Gongsun Haoshu and the others frowned. The main purpose of coming to the Cemetery of Gods and Demons was to enhance their strength, find opportunities, and kill false gods. If they were trapped in Beixuan City, wouldn’t it be a waste of time
Ou Xiaomu said in a deep voice: "Mr. Deputy City Lord, you asked us to come for investigation, and we came. As a result, it turns out that we have nothing to do with this matter. However, you want to restrict our freedom now. Isn't that a bit too much?"
Gongsun Haoshu said: "Our time is precious, we can't afford to waste it with you."
Yun Feiyu nodded and said, "That's right. Who knows how long we have to wait before you can find Yuan Doufeng? If we can't find him in our lifetime, won't we have to stay in Beixuan City for the rest of our lives?"
"How do you know that you won't be able to find it in your lifetime? Has Yuan Doufeng been killed by you?" The deputy city lord sneered.
Gongsun Haoshu raised the corner of his mouth and said sarcastically: "If this is the reason why you imprisoned us, please show us the evidence first."
"Amitabha."
Gu Tian put his hands together, chanted a Buddhist name, and said seriously: "In fact, you are all wrong. According to my observation, the deputy city lord is resentful of Wu Tian's previous offense, so he wants to take advantage of his power to bully us and imprison us. When he finds a good opportunity, he will eliminate us all together."
Upon hearing this, Wutan and the others all showed an expression of "so that's what it is".
"snort!"
The deputy city lord's eyes darkened, he snorted, and sneered: "In Beixuan City, what this city lord says is the will of God, and no one dares to disobey. If you dare to have any objections again, I might as well kill the chicken to scare the monkey and give the world a warning!"
"What a divine decree, what a way of killing a chicken to scare the monkeys, what an arrogant tone, you are worthy of being the deputy city lord of Beixuan City. But I want to ask you, donor, where do you place the city lord? Or have you never taken the city lord seriously? Or have you always been coveting the position of the city lord?" Gu Tian said jokingly.
"Little bald donkey, stop talking nonsense..."
The deputy city lord was furious, and at the same time he wanted to slap himself hard. How could he say such treasonous words in a moment of impulse? He wanted to explain something, but before he could finish his words, Gu Tian clasped his hands together, bowed his head and said, "Donor, I solemnly tell you that Buddhist disciples never lie."
Hearing this, the deputy city lord was so angry that he didn't know what to say. In the end, he blurted out a murderous sentence: "Okay, very good. Since you are a disciple of Buddhism, you shouldn't come to the secular world. Today, I will send you to repent in front of the Buddha!"
"Amitabha, it is clearly stipulated that fighting is not allowed in the five major cities. Is the deputy city lord going to take the lead in disobeying? Oh! That's right! I forgot the identity of the deputy city lord. As the deputy city lord of Beixuan City, he is in a high position and has great power. Naturally, he disdains to abide by these boring rules."
At this point, Gu Tian's eyes flashed, and he suddenly realized: "In this case, I have thought of something. I guess the deputy city lord is the only one in the entire Beixuan City who dares to defy the regulations issued by the four saints. It is possible that Yuan Hanchi was killed by you, and in order to cover up the truth, you asked us to be scapegoats. The deputy city lord is really calculating."
"Huh!" Wutan and his companions were extremely stunned.
In fact, Wu Tian and Yun Fei Yu were better off because they had already experienced it.
However, Gongsun Haoshu and the others were dumbfounded, feeling extremely unbelievable. He could actually say that black was white. This guy's mouth was too sharp!
Even Wutan and others were like this, let alone the deputy city lord, whose face was frighteningly gloomy, with murderous intent in his eyes undisguised, and his fists were clenched tightly together, making a crackling sound.
Obviously, he was on the verge of a rage and couldn't be provoked any further!
"Amitabha."
But some people just don't believe it, so Gu Tian has something to say again.
He clasped his hands together, his face sad, and said with compassion: "God is merciful, why does the deputy city lord have to embarrass us youngsters because of his own mistakes! As long as you let us go, I guarantee that we will never reveal a single word about your murder of Yuan Hanchi."
"Little bald donkey, I must kill you today!"
The deputy city lord was really angry, his eyes were red, and two murderous intentions shot towards Gu Tian. With a loud bang, this exquisite elegant room was instantly reduced to ashes!
"Dear donors, my mission is completed. Now it's up to you." Upon seeing this, Gu Tian secretly whispered to a few people, and with a flash of his figure, he quickly rushed out of the City Lord's Mansion.
Moreover, while running away, he opened his voice and shouted: "Where are the law enforcers? Someone is trying to commit crimes in the City Lord's Mansion. Why don't you come out and administer justice quickly?"
“Little bald donkey, today I will make sure that you have no way to go up to heaven or down to earth!” The deputy city lord was crazy, completely crazy. He ignored Wutan and the others, took a step forward, and with a pair of red eyes, he chased after Gu Tian.
Gongsun Haoshu frowned and asked, "What should we do?"
"Let's go and take a look first. If the law enforcer is the same as him, he will destroy Beixuan City today. What's the harm?" Wutan said coldly.
"I cooperate with his investigation only to give him face. If I don't give him face, you're nothing. It would be good if he had self-awareness today. Otherwise, Beixuan City is doomed to have no peace!" Ou Xiaomu sneered.
Several people nodded and quickly chased after him.
When they chased out of the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, Wutan suddenly stopped, stretched out his hands, and signaled the people behind him to stop.
"What to do?" Several people were puzzled.
Wu Tian said: "We will wait for the right time. After all, he is the deputy city lord of Beixuan City. He is in a high position and has made great contributions to the Eastern Region. If we don't have a good opportunity to attack him, he will turn the tables on us and we will never be able to clear our name even if we jump into the underworld."
Feng Yihui nodded and said, "Wutian's words make sense. This person has a solid foundation in the Eastern Region and it is difficult to shake him. If there is no overwhelming reason, those old monsters in the Eastern Region are very likely to help their relatives instead of the law."
Yun Yuting covered her face and laughed, "You guys! Anyone who dares to be your enemy will probably end up in a bad way."
"Let's watch the show!" Wutan smiled faintly, and in his hand hidden in his sleeve, something appeared, and this thing was the Wanxiang Order.
"Little bald donkey, prepare for your death!" the deputy city lord shouted coldly, and raised his big hand into the air like an eagle's claw, heading straight for Gu Tian's bald head.
"This attack is terrifying. I once saw our master sparring with the Grand Master, and the power of their attack was just like this. If that shameless monk is caught, his head will surely explode." Yun Feiyu nodded, praising him endlessly.
Seeing several people standing by, folding their arms and criticizing him, Gu Tian sighed: "The coldest thing is the human heart. You heartless scum, remember this: don't come to me if you have any difficulties in the future."
“Swish!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Tian's figure flashed and he ran wildly towards the street. However, how could his speed be comparable to that of a city lord-level strong man? Although his head escaped the disaster, the big hand like an eagle's claw landed firmly on his back!
"puff!"
Gu Tian's body shook and a mouthful of blood spurted out. He flew out like a meteorite, and with a loud bang, he smashed into the street between the City Lord's Mansion and the Temple of War Merit, creating a deep pit in the place!
Moreover, with the deep pit as the center, dense cracks appeared, like a spider web, spreading rapidly in all directions at a rapid speed!
"You son of a bitch, someone's killed someone! Someone come quickly!"
Without caring about the injuries he suffered, Gu Tian jumped up and ran away while shouting loudly.
