"Elder Ji, you also know how huge the resources needed for the Floating City are. If everyone does not contribute, the Floating City will not be completed at all." Seeing Ji Wuya coming out, the city guard was not frightened. , said righteously: "We just drove some parasites out of Qinhuai City."
Ji Wuya frowned. What the city guard said was true. Even with the support of the Luo family, Ye family, Huyan family, Lingbao Pavilion, and Baiqi Tower, they were still a bit stretched.
After all, the floating city is an unprecedented feat, and the resources required are too huge.
Although Luo Qinghen's weapon refining ability is very strong, he has no resources and cannot refine it!
"Oh, don't forget, Elder Ji is the master of His Highness the Crown Prince, so how can he help us?" Suddenly, a discordant voice came, pouring dirty water on Ji Wuya.
The corner of Ji Wuya's mouth twitched. He was about to retort, but found that his current position made him wonder how to respond
"Absurd!" At this moment, Xu Ming came over, raised his hand and slapped the city guard. "Everyone in Qinhuai City is our family. No matter how difficult it is to build a floating city, we should not take it out on our own families."
"Chief of City Guards!!" Many city guards stared at Xu Ming with wide eyes and astonishment. "I, we are following orders."
"Acting on orders?" Xu Ming squinted his eyes and sneered: "Then tell me, whose orders are you taking? Why didn't I, the city guard chief, receive the news? I now doubt that you abused your power and exploited us. Citizens, our family!”
Everyone was very excited when they heard what Xu Ming said.
"Chief of City Guards, you must give us an explanation! They are too bullying!"
"That's right! Not only do they have a bad attitude, they also beat people!!"
"I feel that such a person is not qualified to be a city guard protecting Qinhuai City!"
When Ji Wuya saw this, he couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Xu Ming was here, otherwise the situation would have been difficult to control!
After all, Qinhuaicheng is now at a critical moment, and any turmoil will cause unimaginable trouble.
"Chief City Guard, we were wrong!!" The City Guard plopped down and knelt down. "Please forgive us, me, we only did this because we were temporarily obsessed."
This sentence revealed that these city guards indeed abused their power and exploited the people of the city. If Xu Ming hadn't appeared, they would probably have continued to be arrogant.
Ji Wuya has a special status and cannot control this matter.
If it were before, Ji Wuya would have kicked down these city guards with his character, but the situation now is different.
He is Zhu Ying's master and Luo Xiaoman's disciple, and Luo Xiaoman is the emperor's goddaughter. The relationship here is not easy to handle.
Clang!
At this time, Xu Ming pulled out his sword, and the sword flashed with cold light, shocking everyone present.
"You hold important positions, but instead of contributing to Qinhuai City, you exploit the people of the city. You deserve to be punished for your crime." Xu Ming squinted his eyes, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes. "Now, I will execute you in public to serve as a warning to others!"
"Chief of City Guards, you, you can't do this, actually..."
"shut up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Ming's long sword struck down.
Dang!
Ji Wuya takes action!
He flicked Xu Ming's sword away and said solemnly: "Chief of City Guards, I believe they have realized their mistake. There is no need to kill them, right?"
