Ning Cheng’s eyes stared and he did not continue to make his move. There was something odd about this forsaken land, and the person who had just blocked Princess Mann from stabbing her in the eye was definitely not Princess Mann herself.
“Little Man, what’s wrong with you ……” a panicked voice came out, followed by a middle-aged man rushing in as if he was a shadow.
This middle-aged man was incredibly swift, and Ning Cheng’s divine sense still saw it clearly. This was an expert, and should be a pure martial artist. Looking at him, he looked a little similar to that prince and Princess Man, so I guess this person was the City Master.
This middle-aged man rushed to Princess Man’s side and raised his hand just to point at Princess Man several times. Princess Man’s wound stopped bleeding instantly. He took out a small vial from his belt and poured some medicinal powder on Princess Man’s wound.
Only then did a few maids react and rush forward to help Princess Mann bandage her wound.
Ning Cheng watched clearly from the side, this City Lord really had a few tricks up his sleeve, his means of stopping the bleeding was impressive, and that medicinal powder seemed to be a top grade medicinal powder.
“Father, it was this person who tried to assassinate me ……” Princess Mann also came fully awake and immediately pointed at Ning Cheng and cried out. It was a completely different extreme from the high coolness she had when she was outside of Aaron City, riding on her one-legged beast.
Ning Cheng secretly laughed in his heart, a city lord was also called Father. But it was just as well, even the prince and princess had come out, there was nothing wrong with another king coming out.
“Little sister, are you alright ……” It was only at this point that the prince hurried in.
It was only until this time that this city lord also had time to observe Ning Cheng and the three of them. When he saw Ning Cheng’s face calmly sitting and not moving, he frowned faintly and then asked very gently, “You must be a guest invited by Xiao Man, right? Why do you want to make a move on Xiao Man?”
Ning Cheng smiled lightly, “You should be the Lord of the City, right? You can eat your food carelessly, but you can’t talk carelessly. There are so many people here to see, so you should ask if it was me who did it. Then come back and make a decision, otherwise I’m going to get angry.”
This middle-aged man felt more and more that something was wrong, whether it was the man in front of him who did it or not, but this calm attitude, and the tone of his words to him, the city lord, was not right.
His gaze swept over the dozen panicked guards and asked in a deep voice, “What just happened?”
The guard at the head of the group hurriedly stepped forward and told the story of how the short sword had just popped up for no reason and stabbed Princess Mann one after another.
After hearing the guard’s words, the middle-aged man suddenly spread a smile and waved his hand at the guard. Then he cupped his fist to Ning Cheng again and said, “I was reckless just now, my name is Yi Zonghuan, I am the City Lord of Aaron City, since you are Xiao Man’s guests, you are my Yi Zonghuan’s honoured guests.”
At this moment, even Princess Mann did not dare to talk nonsense anymore, she even stared at Ning Cheng with some panic. She could not be more clear about her father’s ruthlessness and power. Just by virtue of the denunciation she had just made, she was injured whether or not it was Ning Cheng’s trio who did it. Ning Cheng and the three of them would still be chopped into meat and thrown out to feed the beasts.
And at this moment, not only did Father not do so, but instead greeted them politely, so it was obvious that these three people were somewhat uncomplicated. When one thought about the situation she had just been injured in, it seemed to be really a bit bizarre.
The prince, who had just arrived, also stared blankly at Ning Cheng’s three people, completely confused as to what had happened. He did not dare to speak as he vaguely swept a glance at Yin Kongchan and Xu Yingdie.
“I, Ning Cheng. I am not your daughter’s honoured guest, a month or so ago, I was rewarded with three swords and six holes by your daughter outside of Aaron City, and I am grateful for that. Today again, because your son has taken a fancy to my women, he has rewarded me again to go and work for him and then take away the two women by my side. You see, am I not here to thank your daughter’s princess residence for her kindness?” Ning Cheng said calmly.
Yi Zonghuan’s heart shook wildly, his daughter’s injuries were wrapped by him, so wasn’t that three swords and six holes? The person had come to demand a debt.
Using his inner qi to control his sword, at least he did not have this ability yet, this young man in front of him actually had an inner qi cultivation level above his.
Not waiting for his thoughts to turn, Ning Cheng suddenly stood up, his body overflowing with killing aura.
Not good, this was about to flip out. Yi Zonghuan was far more experienced than his own son, and the moment he knew that Ning Cheng’s cultivation might even be above him, he decided not to start a conflict with Ning Cheng for the time being.
Ning Cheng was even going to take the initiative to find trouble, so how could he continue to watch? Without even thinking, he turned around and slapped the prince behind him with two slaps, “How dare you, my Aaron City uses the law to establish the city, how dare you test the law with your body? Someone, send him to death row.”
“Even though the prince’s breath was overpowering, under Yi Zonghuan’s two slaps, this guy’s mouth spilled blood and left five purple-red finger marks on each side.
The guards were so scared that they didn’t even dare to breathe, the city lord’s love for his son and daughter could be said to have reached an extreme. Usually, he would not even scold them, let alone hit them this hard.
Ning Cheng did not know that although Yi Zonghuan’s beating was severe, in fact it did not weigh much at all. He waved his hand and said, ”Put him back in the cell later, I still have things to question him about. O prince, come over here for a moment.”
Even his father was so cautious and polite to Ning Cheng, this prince dared not say more and hurriedly and carefully walked to Ning Cheng’s side.
“I heard that you found the location of the Enlightened Spirit Sect in the Abandoned Spirit Mountain? Show me the map.” Ning Cheng said casually.
This prince froze for a moment and before he could reply, he heard Yi Zonghuan drink, “Don’t go and bring it now.”
How could the prince dare to say anything at this point, he hurriedly took out a detailed map from his own body and handed it to Ning Cheng. On the map was drawn the Abandoned Spirit Mountain, and the Enlightened Spirit Sect was also very clearly marked.
Ning Cheng put away the detailed map and once again asked, “How do I get to the Abandoned Spirit Mountain?”
“Go and get a map to the Abandoned Spirit Mountain and present it to Brother Ning.” Yi Zonghuan waved his hand at one of the guards beside him.
That guard was very fast, and in just a short time, he hurriedly ran over with a map and handed it to Yi Zonghuan with both hands.
With a smile on his face, Yi Zonghuan handed the map to Ning Cheng.
Ning Cheng took the map and looked at Yi Zonghuan and smiled, “Lord Yi, you are quite something, aren’t you? No wonder Aaron City can be so prosperous, before I leave I helped City Master Yi to calculate a fortune, you are better off being quiet than active recently, City Master Yi should take care of your health.”
After saying this Ning Cheng turned around and left this princess’s garden, bringing Yin Kongchan and Xu Yingdie with him they quickly disappeared in the distance.
“Father ……” After Ning Cheng left, Princess Man and that prince called out almost simultaneously.
Before Yi Zonghuan could say anything, a guard had already come forward and reported, “Your Majesty, the four generals are already waiting outside.”
“I understand, you go down first.” Yi Zong Huan waved the guard away.
“Father, so you are already preparing.” Princess Man and the prince immediately understood what was going on.
Yi Zonghuan sighed and said, “Little Man, you should have guessed that your injuries were definitely done by that Ning Cheng. You gave him three slashes and six holes, and now he’s giving you back three slashes and six holes. Before, I thought that this person’s cultivation level was still above mine, so I stabilized him and then mobilized my army outside the city to finish him off ……”
Speaking of this, Yi Zonghuan’s eyes showed extreme scorn, “But he ended up asking where the Abandoned Spirit Mountain was, making me completely afraid to move him again.”
“Why?” Princess Man’s tone was tinged with reluctance, and she even clenched her fists.
Yi Zonghuan said in a deep voice, “Is there anyone here who would not know about Abandoned Spirit Mountain? If I’m not wrong, this person must have come in from outside. When he first came in, he was affected by the rules here, so he was sealed in his cultivation, which allowed Little Man to easily punish him with three slashes and six holes. And now he has at least partially recovered his cultivation, as evidenced by the fact that without using his arms and legs, he injured Little Man.”
“Ah, doesn’t it mean that when people from outside come in, they are completely imprisoned with all their cultivation?” That prince asked in shock.
“That’s the scary thing about this person, he’s definitely not an ordinary person. To be able to unblock his cultivation in this place, can he be simple. If he really is someone from outside, even if all of my Aaron City’s army surrounds him, it will only result in rivers of blood and have no effect on him. Moreover, his last words were already a warning to me. If I dare to send an army to intercept him, it would be absolutely unthinkable.” Yi Zong Huan’s tone grew harsher and harsher as he spoke.
A cold sweat came out behind Princess Man and that prince, especially Princess Man, who finally knew why the other party was so arrogant and didn’t take her into consideration at all.
“Then why is he sparing us? And spare little sister? I once heard that the people from outside are ruthless and will never put the lives of ordinary people in their eyes. Not to mention slaughtering a city, they wouldn’t bat an eye even if they were to exterminate a country.” That prince asked again.
Yi Zonghuan frowned, “I don’t understand either, I once heard that the cultivators outside are called cultivators. It is reasonable to say that once the cultivators come in, they will definitely not be so nice.”
“Should we send someone to try first?” Princess Mann still had some reluctance in her heart.
Yi Zonghuan said in a stern tone, “This matter must not be brought up again, whether he is a cultivator coming in from outside or not, it is already heavenly fortune for us now.”
……
Ning Cheng and his trio walked out of the middlemost gate of Aaron City, stunning everyone who saw them, this was the gate where the city lord’s residence entered and left, and three ordinary people dared to do this? Some of those who wanted to get rich had already gone to sue.
“Your last sentence was intentional, wasn’t it?” After walking out of the city gates, Yin Kongchan glanced at Ning Cheng. She was very clear about the meaning of Ning Cheng’s last sentence, which was that if Yi Zonghuan really dared to bring an army to block him, Ning Cheng would definitely kill a river of blood and flesh.
As a cultivator of a large sect, Yin Kongchan really did not quite understand why Ning Cheng wanted to spare the City Lord of Aaron City. With his strength restored, it was all about being fast and furious.
“Although Aaron City’s laws are a little harsher, it is still much better than other places, so I am not willing to kill.”
Ning Cheng finished taking out an airship magic treasure, “Let’s go, when we reach the Abandoned Spirit Mountain, we can leave this abandoned land.”
