Chapter 0286 He turned out to be the city owner
"You want to stay?"
The old woman frowned, but when she thought about it carefully, it seemed that this was indeed the best way.
We can't be trapped here all the time, let's wait for death together?
Are you counting on Qiankun Academy to come to find them? Then when will you go? Maybe before the academy is found, they will be furious and taken to be buried by the dying old city lord. This road will not work.
"That's all."
The sword demon said in a deep voice: "This may be the best ending. What I am actually more worried about is that the city lord's mansion does not agree with this method and insists on keeping all of us together, which will be really bad."
Hearing this, the rest of the people's hearts also sank.
In that case, they might have to wait for death together.
"Then let me listen to you." The old woman took a deep breath and made a decision.
Lin Cheng kept watching from the side, but couldn't get into anything. He could only hope that this time the matter could be solved perfectly. If it really didn't work, in order not to delay his schedule, he might have to do something to bully the small one and force people away.
Seeing that everyone had made a decision, Lin Cheng breathed a sigh of relief for the time being and decided to see the results first.
If things really cannot be solved, it will not be too late to say anything else at that time.
...
"The city lord's mansion is ahead!"
Soon, Lin Cheng, Sword Demon, Ji Xiaoshuang and others came to a magnificent building. This building can almost be regarded as a landmark building of the entire Void Town, and can be seen at a glance from a distance.
It is very conspicuous, this is the city lord's mansion.
Along the way, everyone felt that since they left Jinyang Inn, there were obscure sights following them all the way. Without thinking too much, everyone also understood that these were all eyeliners sent by the City Lord’s Mansion.
The purpose is to keep an eye on them and to keep abreast of their whereabouts.
Once they tend to escape, they will report it immediately. At that time, there will be masters from the City Lord's Mansion, or even the old City Lord, who will take action personally, kill them or take them back to detain them.
Everyone dared not act rashly, and could only treat these eyeliners as non-existent.
The sword demon moved his body uneasyly and frowned, but in the end he didn't say much. These eyeliners were very annoying, but they were wrong first and couldn't say anything.
In the usual situation, the sword demon would have been furious.
"The City Lord's Mansion is really tightly watching, for fear that we will escape. These eyeliners are almost everywhere in this Void Town. The City Lord's Mansion can control the changes in the entire Void Town at any time, which is also the reason why we did not try to escape."
"Once we fail to escape, we will either face death or more severe detention next time, which will even cause us to lose our freedom completely."
"Then there is really no hope."
Someone saw Lin Cheng a little stunned and explained a few words softly.
Lin Cheng didn't say anything but nodded slightly. The reason why he was stunned was that he seemed to feel a familiar breath, as if he had seen it not long ago, but before he could think about it carefully, he saw everyone heading towards the insider of the city lord's mansion.
The guards along the way seemed to recognize them, and although their eyes were not good, they did not stop them.
It seems that I have received instructions in advance.
"The City Lord's Mansion is really a hidden dragon and a creeping tiger."
As the sword demon walked, he sighed in his heart, "I didn't expect that I could still encounter such powerful forces in the foreign domain. Many of the auras in the secret are the third level of Return to Void, which is only stronger than me. I even felt an inexplicable obscure aura. I'm afraid I'm at least a powerful man who is a half-step marquis."
Not long after, Lin Cheng, led by the familiarity of the sword demon and others, came all the way to a side hall.
It can be seen that it is not the first time that the Demon and the others have come here. They are very familiar with the route. It seems that they have gone through several negotiations before, but the final result seems to be very good. Thinking of this, Lin Cheng showed some expression.
He is always ready to take people away.
"arrive!"
The moment everyone stepped into a certain range, all the sounds around instantly dissipated and became extremely quiet, as if they had come to another world, and the almost ubiquitous guards around them disappeared at some point.
The environment here is empty, and there seems to be few people living there, and the defense is very loose.
The faces of the sword demon, the old woman and others became even more serious.
"Let's go."
The old woman took a deep breath and led everyone straight to a certain direction. No one led them along the way. They followed the route they remembered and moved in a certain direction until they walked into a magnificent hall.
The moment they entered it, they noticed a figure.
It looks very ordinary and old, and there seems to be no strong momentum all over his body, but it makes people feel a sense of awe from the bottom of their hearts. The sword demon tried to sense it, but found that there was a blank space in front of him, as if the person in front of him did not exist at all.
My heart was slightly awe-inspiring.
Just a figure, they already knew who this person was, the old city lord!
A powerful man of marquis level!
"The younger sword demon has seen the city lord!"
The sword demon saluted and greeted the figure in front of him, and the others followed suit. Only Lin Cheng stood still, looking at the old figure in front of him, a hint of surprise gradually appeared in his eyes.
It's him!
The old man who came out to set up a stall to sell things didn't expect that he was the lord of Void Town. I remember that the old man was seriously injured and his aura was obscure. Now it seems that he has become much more smooth and his strength has become stronger.
The moment Lin Cheng noticed the old man, the old man also happened to turn around and see Lin Cheng.
At first he was stunned, then he trembled slightly with excitement!
Just as I was about to say hello, I saw that Lin Cheng seemed to have no intention of saying anything, so I had to instinctively swallow the words to my mouth.
At this time, it seemed as if I had noticed the sword demon and others. My brows suddenly frowned, and a cold voice came out: "It's you?"
At the same time, I was slightly puzzled, how could these people stand with their seniors?
What is the relationship between them?
Thinking of this, the old man's tone couldn't help but relieve his anger a little.
"My Lord City, I hope to discuss with the Lord City."
The sword demon did not notice the expressions of the old man and Lin Cheng. When he saw the old man turn his head and quickly expressed his purpose directly. At the same time, he was slightly shocked. In his feelings, the aura that the old man invisibly exuded seemed to be a little more pressure.
Could it be the function of that immortal fruit?
Even if there is only less than 30% of the effect left, it still has such an obvious effect?
