After telling Yetong to take good care of Zhu Ji, Qianye followed the group to the City Lord's Mansion and was led into the study.
This study room is in dark colors, the floor-to-ceiling windows are quite imposing, and the view is also quite good. In addition to overlooking the whole city, the view can go directly outside the city and see the rolling waves of the big river. In fact, the city lord's mansion itself is not very high, and it can have such a good view because the other buildings are too short.
In front of the floor-to-ceiling windows, stood a middle-aged man wearing a combat uniform, only revealing luxury in some details, showing a unique identity. Moreover, the combat uniform on his body reminded the people around him that he was not only the lord of the city, but also the strongest in the city.
When Qianye walked into the study room, the middle-aged man turned around, looked up and down Qianye with a pair of narrow and elongated phoenix eyes, then smiled and said: "I really didn't expect Mr. Zhao to be so young, I really feel ashamed. At your age, I'm still struggling for a warrior!"
Qianye saluted and said, "City Master Su has won the prize."
Looking closely at the moment, it can be seen that City Master Su's face is quite gentle, with a carefully trimmed short beard. From top to bottom, although there is nothing conspicuous and luxurious, every detail is meticulously taken care of, even the hair. No mess. Such appearance, if placed in the empire, is already enough for the court standard.
Previously, Qianye only knew that the lord of Lingang City was named Su Dingqian, and he knew nothing about the rest. Seeing him face to face now, I can feel that his aura of original force is quite feminine and erratic, with the artistic conception of impermanent water, but at the same time, it also has the thickness of dark water. Being able to combine agility and thickness into one, this city lord of Su is obviously very human.
Su Dingqian pointed to the chair and said with a smile, "Sit, Mr. Zhao."
Qianye gave way, and waited for Su Dingqian to sit down before he sat down, and then said: "I don't know why City Master Su invited you?"
From the moment we met, Su Dingqian seemed very enthusiastic, and his smile was very sincere, obviously he was really happy in his heart. However, this kind of people are old and mature, and what they really think in their hearts is absolutely invisible from the surface.
Su Dingqian said: "Will Mr. Zhao lead the army?"
This question was straightforward, Qianye thought about it for a moment, and said, "Not very good."
Qianye didn't hide it intentionally. Although he was born in the Red Scorpion, he had never really led a large army to fight, and he was not good at planning and layout throughout the story. In past battles, what he was best at was breaking the situation with strength.
Su Dinggan was not disappointed at all, instead he said: "It would be better not to lead the army. To tell the truth, sir, Lingang City will face turmoil in the future. At this moment, if sir is willing to do his part for the guard of Lingang City, I will Su will definitely not treat Mr. badly."
Qianye didn't reply immediately, but asked: "I don't know why City Master Su is so fond of you? I'm so flattered."
Su Dingqian laughed, and said: "Look, I even forgot about this. Xueyi also secretly worked for me. After seeing you last night, he admired you very much. I was thinking, how can such a person not meet immediately See?"
Qianye also vaguely expected that a person like Xue Yi would probably have a connection with the City Lord's Mansion both openly and secretly, and was actually the City Lord's eyes and ears. Otherwise, how could he get so much confidential information, and how could he be tolerated.
Qianye said calmly: "Thanks to the great love of City Lord Su, since I live in Lingang City, it is only right for me to contribute to this place. It's just that I don't know the source of the turmoil, who is the enemy, and then, what can I get?"
Su Dingqian nodded and said: "The source of the turmoil is not difficult to guess. The three major forces around us are about to move and prepare for a big battle. And they chose the battlefield near Lingang City, which is obviously uneasy. If To decide the outcome, the winning side might turn around and wipe us out. Those guys have been coveting several kinds of earth dragon-related resources in our Lingang City for a long time."
Having said that, Su Dingqian clapped his hands, and immediately an attendant brought in a dark red lacquer box. Su Dinggan opened the lacquer box and placed it in front of Qianye.
Inside the box was covered with red satin, and there was a piece of crystal clear crystal, and a wisp of smoke lingered back and forth in the crystal. The smoke fluctuates, manifesting as a beetle from time to time, but then turning into smoke again.
Every time it transformed into a beetle, Qianye felt as if a few drops of ice water dripped into his mind, and his consciousness became a little clearer. Although I don't know what its function is, but this beetle sealed in the crystal is miraculous, so there is no need to say more.
"City Master Su, this is..."
"This is the most important product of Lingang City, dream-eating insects. It will only appear from the depths of the ground when the dragons are moving. To capture them, you need a warrior super strong to seal them in the crystal. This kind of dream-eating insect is said to be able to replenish soul power and improve aptitude. Based on Su’s many years of experience, the theory of replenishing soul is too miraculous to verify. But eating a lot of it will indeed promote the improvement of aptitude. Not without help."
Qianye's heart skipped a beat.
He didn't care about crossing the God's Sky Gate, but replenishing his soul power was of great use to Yetong. After her soul was worn away and torn apart, she didn't know what hidden dangers would be in the future. Naturally, the more treasures like dream-eating insects, the better.
Qianye didn't hide his intentions. Seeing him moved, Su Dingqian smiled slightly, closed the lacquer box, and put it into Qianye's hands, saying: "This dream-eating insect is considered as an advance payment for Mr. There will be two offered."
Qianye knew it was hard to refuse this offer, even if it had only a little effect on Yetong, it was worth it.
However, Qianye is still hesitant, because he still doesn't know who the enemy is, and what kind of meritorious service he has to make in order to get the Dream Eater with peace of mind. He wouldn't be so naive as to think that he could get this kind of treasure by staying in the city peacefully through the entire period of turmoil.
Su Dingqian said: "I don't want to get involved in this war, but it seems inevitable now. Our biggest enemy is the Moonlight White Devil, and their leader has always wanted to explore the secrets of the dragons in Lingang City. Hmph, there is Su here , will let him do what he wants?"
Qianye's expression changed, and he said, "They want to explore the earth dragon?"
Having participated in the Bloody Battle and the Battle of Floating Land successively, and having come into contact with the chaotic wreckage of the Sky Ghost and the Void Behemoth, Qianye already has an idea of the real Void Behemoth. Just judging from the range of the earthquake, the earth dragon hidden in the ground is probably also a giant void beast. Even if it is not as terrifying as Chaos, it is still a giant void. With such an existence, it would be possible to crush a group of warrior viscounts to death by turning over, maybe they haven't felt it yet.
Back then, the Sky Ghost cast an iron curtain that covered almost half of the continent. In the end, it was said that it was the Queen of the Night and Eternal Flame who drove the Sky Ghost back to the depths of the void.
No matter how strong the head of the moonlight white devil is, he cannot be the king of heaven, and the possibility of being a high-ranking general is not high. With this strength, to provoke the Void Behemoth, isn't it courting death
Seeing Qianye's expression changed, Su Dingqian's heart moved, and he asked, "What is Mr. Zhao thinking?"
Qianye said frankly: "I think the Moonlight White Devil's idea of attacking the dragon is purely courting death."
Su Dingqian felt the same, he slapped his thigh hard, and said: "That's what happened! I think I, Su, have been in charge of Lingang City for decades, and I never dared to dig deep into the ground, because I was afraid of angering that ground dragon? But the Moonlight White Devils are all lunatics, they cannot be judged by common sense, and it is not surprising that they do anything."
Seeing that Qianye seemed to be hesitant, Su Dingqian said seriously: "Mr. Zhao, if you make enough meritorious deeds in this battle and kill more than three famous and noble people on the other side, then Su has a copy of "The Art of Alchemy". It is very helpful to cross the God General Tianguan, and you can pass the first chapter to your husband. But you have to swear by the Force, and you can’t spread it outside without permission.”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room changed color. "Dan Xin Jue" is one of Su Dingqian's famous exercises, second only to "Hao Ming Pian" which he majored in. After practicing, it will slightly increase the possibility of cultivators crossing the Heavenly Gate of Gods. Although the increase is not much, it still makes people crazy. Many strong people have their own paths, it is impossible to abolish the original force that has been cultivated for many years, and switch to the Haoming Chapter, but the Danxin Jue can also practice it.
Only Su Dingqian's most core confidantes will be passed on the formula of alchemy, and there is only the first part. Even so, there are still a large number of strong people who are willing to serve in order to obtain the opportunity to teach. This is also one of the reasons why Lingang City is able to surpass the three major forces.
Now that Su Dingqian actually directly promised the alchemy formula, it can be seen how much he valued Qianye.
Qianye also knew that he could no longer refuse, so he got up and saluted, and said, "If that's the case, I would like to thank the city lord."
Seeing that Qianye agreed to come down, Su Dinggan laughed loudly and said, "Okay! Let's have a banquet now, and we must get very drunk!"
However, the situation is quite urgent now, and there are frequent legion activities outside the city, so under the persuasion of his generals, Su Dingqian decided to postpone the banquet until after the war. He sent someone to send Qianye back to pack his luggage. Since Qianye decided to fight in Lingang City, it would be difficult to stay in an inn again. So Su Dingqian also ordered someone to clear out a small house in the noble district for Qianye to live in.
When Qianye left, the tall and thin man who brought him finally couldn't help it, and asked, "City Master, are you a little too fond of this kid? If this is the case, I'm afraid the brothers will be a little dissatisfied. A twelfth-level Warrior, it seems that he is not worthy of your attention! Although he is young and has great potential, when he grows up in the future, he may not be willing to serve you."
Su Ding let out a hey voice, and said slowly: "You have been with me for a long time, when did you see me miss someone? This Mr. Zhao, I am afraid not only has amazing potential."
The tall and thin man asked a few more questions, but Su Dingqian didn't want to say any more. He waved his hand and said, "Go and arm yourself! Remember my words, don't provoke Mr. Zhao. Whatever he wants, he will try his best to meet."
The tall and thin man was unwilling, but Su Ding had a lot of prestige, and he didn't dare to persuade him to make a decision, so he had to leave.
Su Dinggan was the only one left in the study, and through the floor-to-ceiling windows, he could just see Qianye leaving. Looking at Qianye's background, Su Dinggan chuckled, stroked his beard and said, "You dare to kill even the wolf king's son, I want to see what else you dare not do."
