Fang Shisan was still thinking about the next countermeasures, and the news had already reached Yuxi City.
Qian Teng rode his horse and galloped all the way, even almost hitting pedestrians on the road several times, which naturally attracted complaints from passers-by. No one dared to reprimand this wounded general face to face, but there was always something to say behind his back. Qian Teng went to the weird alley and knocked on the door as Lide said, and then rushed to the City Lord's Mansion, where he saw He Yue.
After He Yue finished speaking out of breath, she politely cupped her hands and said:
"It's been hard work. Qian Teng, take a good rest first, and then go back to Fang Shisan to wait for the dispatch. The city lord only brought Alaiya to go deep into the demons. I will find a way to deal with it."
Qian Teng bowed deeply, got on his horse, and left the city again.
Watching him leave, He Yue closed the door, leaned against the door, and rubbed her forehead with the rest of her palm.
This is not Lide's first adventure, Yunhai, Zhaochen, Wangdu, King Huai, he has gone to many places. But at that time, He Yue was not particularly worried, because as long as in the human realm, no matter whether it was killing or imprisoning, he had to follow the rules. Li De could use a lot of power to get out of a seemingly dangerous situation.
But the demons are different. After leaving the human territory, there is no chance for him to take advantage of the situation, and the rules of the human territory no longer apply. Maybe something will be killed by the claws of the demons who suddenly appeared at a certain moment. The murderous demons themselves don't know that they have killed a city lord on the human border. Even if Alaya's kendo has greatly improved now, it is impossible to guarantee that Lide will be safe under this situation.
He Yue couldn't help feeling a little tired.
"Shouldn't have let him go there..."
He muttered something in a low voice, as if he was talking to himself, or to Fang Shisan who was far away.
However, He Yue soon returned to her usual demeanor, and did not tell anyone the news, but went to Lide's house first.
According to the message conveyed by Qian Teng, he opened the corresponding cabinet, and saw two letters and a scroll inside. One of the letters was marked red as Qian Teng said, and He Yue temporarily put it aside. In the other letter, He Yue tore a hole, poured out the letter paper inside, opened it and read it carefully.
A lot of letters, only a few words:
"When you read this letter, I'm... probably not dead yet. Something's not right, it always feels like an account of the funeral. If the pressure from the Demon Race is too great, and Yuxi City can't cope normally, what do you think? In my name, recruit adventurers from the entire Eternal Heaven Kingdom. The armies from other territories will not come, and Yunyang will not help us. Only those profit-driven adventurers may come to the demons to hunt for high-level materials. A single adventurer Our strength is limited, if they are large enough, they can become a life-saving foreign aid for us. Besides, when I am away, Yuxi City will be handed over to you."
He Yue put down the letter in his hand, and opened the scroll beside it. There were three blank city lord orders. At the end of each chapter of the order, the city lord's seal was stamped in advance, which meant that He Yue could write anything on it. , will be counted as Lide's order. In addition, Li De is not in the city now, and Heyue, who holds these three city lord orders, can be said to have unlimited power.
He Yue looked at the blank Santo Ling silently, her eyes were quite deep, making it impossible to guess what she was thinking.
Suddenly, a female voice sounded from behind:
"Little girl, congratulations to Lord Shoufu in advance."
He Yue turned her head and saw a woman wearing a red veil.
The head of the Anbu organization in Yuxi City, another figure with great power in Yuxi City. It's just that unlike Heyue who appeared on the front, Shuang has been hiding in the dark all the time, so she just doesn't want to be noticed.
He Yue asked:
"Congratulations on what?"
Frost smiled and said:
"Congratulations to Mr. Shoufu for his rising status. He has officially become the absolute core of Yuxi City from today. It is not impossible for Mr. Shoufu to take another step forward. After all, Mr. Shoufu does not care about political affairs, and all internal affairs are entrusted to Mr. Shoufu. Now I don’t know how many people are only looking forward to the Lord Shoufu, but this time the city lord is in danger, and the Lord Shoufu should think about the future.”
He Yue also laughed and asked:
"Do you have any ideas?"
Frost said calmly:
"Let's be honest, as a member of the Anbu organization, I know Lord Shoufu's past better than anyone else. Back then, Lord Shoufu was also passionate and wanted to assist Lord Tiancheng to do something, but unfortunately Lord Tiancheng only You are used as a prop to search for people's wealth, and when you target his son, he immediately throws you into the sea of clouds to perform in an opera. After experiencing this, Mr. Shoufu should understand that it is better to control fate in your own hands."
He Yue shook her head:
"Li De is different from Lord Tian Cheng."
"That's because he is still young, he has no wife or son. He doesn't even have many women around him. Soon he will celebrate his eighteenth birthday, and the relationship with that man named Alayah is also growing." Steady progress. Imagine twenty years later, if he has a child, will he still hand over the power to Lord Shoufu? Many people are selfless when they are young, and they start to be selfish when they have a family."
Shuang seemed to be talking about a very common thing, perhaps because she had seen too many such things.
Few of the founding heroes of the Eternal Heaven Kingdom survived in the end.
He Yue replied:
"I'll give him power back when he wants it."
Shuang laughed, with curved eyebrows and eyes, and said quite sharp words with a gentle expression:
"At that time, what are you going to do? Find another brothel to sing, commit yourself to the arms of some man or woman, or stay in the city lord's mansion and be a raised pet?"
Shuang took two steps forward and said to He Yue:
"If that's the case, you don't have to come to Yuxi City at all. This cage is not as beautiful as the last one for you. Mr. Shoufu, the little girl boldly said: Anyone who has a dream is not willing to give up his fate. Entrust it to someone else, especially someone who is unstable. If the city lord is like Baifeng, Lord Lingwu, or those two from Xiqin and Nanchu, there is no problem in betting on him. But he is too young, he does things too impulsively, without thinking about the consequences, he is easy to make achievements, and it is easy to fall into the abyss."
Shuang took another step forward and said in a low voice:
"As for Mr. Shoufu, who can be called the second most handsome in the world, if there is no reliable and stable support, once the situation becomes chaotic, Mr. Shoufu himself may become the prey, right? Lord Lingwu has 80,000 cavalry. The whole Lingwu is protected, so what does Lord Shoufu have?"
He Yue clenched the City Lord's Token in her hand.
