"My subordinates pay their respects to City Master Fu!"
Upon seeing the visitor, many armored guards knelt on the ground at the same time, respectfully saluting the man in dark red brocade robes.
Not only that, all the people also lowered their heads, with a look of fear in their eyes, and slowly backed away, as if they were very afraid of the people in front of them. Some people even trembled unconsciously and could not control themselves.
City Lord Fu, Fu Junlin, is the only City Lord in Lieyang City. His cultivation level is probably at the peak of the Lingxu Realm, and he is no match for Feng Mian. He knows the Heavenly Mechanics at a glance, so he is not a difficult opponent.
"What did I tell you? Can this divine pillar be destroyed at will? Can outsiders touch it at will? It's just random. What do you want to do if you just bring strangers in?"
Seeing this battle, Feng Mian knew that head-on confrontation was not the answer. Since he is the city lord, he has absolute control over this place. Perhaps the only clues can be found from him, so he cannot be too stalemate.
"Lord City Lord, I am Fengmian. This is my brother, Dashan. As for the other three, they are just friends. We entered this place by mistake and were discovered by the Iron-faced General. It was not intentional."
After hearing this, many of the people wanted to say something, but they were secretly scolded by the iron-faced general and did not dare to say anything. Since Fengmian Danzun said this, he must have a reason, so he did not expose it.
"Hmph! Since you entered by mistake, you should be passing by. Do you know the rules of my Lieyang City? Strangers are never welcome. Leave as soon as possible, otherwise I will beat you out. It doesn't matter whether you live or die!"
The iron-faced general looked embarrassed and wanted to step forward to explain, but was stopped by Feng Mian. He shook his head at him: "Leave everything to me, you don't have to interfere in this matter. Even if you have to use force, it's mine."
Matters for outsiders."
As soon as Feng Mian walked in here, he actually became interested. Because everyone here seemed to have a strange flame energy. It was roaming everywhere in the body, seemingly about to explode, but it was just right.
"City Lord, wait a minute, I have something to say. This is the southern desert, and it is not easy to get out of here. So, please be patient, City Lord, and let me stay here for a few days."
The figure in the dark red brocade robe paused and slowly turned his head. His eyes were complex and he stared at Feng Mian dangerously: "What did you say? You want me to agree to you staying for a few days? How brave! This kind of request is still a first.
one time."
Dashan also stepped forward, probably knowing what Feng Mian meant: "Lord City Lord, we are really tired. We don't want to die. If we go out now, we will die. Please let us rest here for a few days."
At this time, a figure appeared next to City Master Fu. He looked like a counselor and said a few words in his ear. City Master Fu was deep in thought and seemed to be shaken: "Is this method feasible?"
What the counselor said could not be heard by others, but it did not escape Feng Mian's ears.
"City Lord, it seems that these people are not ordinary people. Perhaps we can only keep them here. Otherwise, once they go out, the secrets here may be revealed, which will cause unnecessary trouble."
After pondering for a moment, City Master Fu smiled coldly: "Since you want to stay, then go ahead. But I am not responsible for the consequences or what will happen. Whether you can survive or not depends on your fate.
"
As soon as the conversation changed, the city lord fixed his gaze on the iron-faced general. Like a blade, it seemed to be able to penetrate in an instant: "Follow me! Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking, how brave you are!"
Inside the Lord's Mansion of Lieyang City
"Iron Mian, do you know you are guilty? You have violated taboos time and time again. Why have you not given up over the years? Do you have to secretly oppose me? Do you think I need you very much, so you are unscrupulous?"
City Lord Fu clasped one hand behind his back, turned his back to the Iron-faced General, and scolded him coldly. He had spared such behavior several times, but this time he actually brought people in directly, completely ignoring the City Lord's regulations.
The Iron-faced General was half-kneeling on the ground, a little sad and a little angry, staring straight at the back of the city lord: "Why did you become like this? The previous Lieyang City was not like this. Everyone was peaceful. Since..."
"Shut up! Who told you to say this? Of course I have my reasons for doing this. If you continue
If you continue to engage in petty tricks, don’t blame me for not thinking about it... In short, this is the last time, and you are not allowed to do it again!"
Standing up suddenly, the Iron-faced General's eyes were full of perseverance. He slowly took off the mask on his face: "Haha... stick to your own ideas, what nonsense is the holy fire? How can you be reborn after nine experiences?"
"Father, look at my face and my body. This is what you said, the so-called power of the holy fire. My body is constantly weathering, and even this special armor can hardly resist it."
Stepping forward, the Iron-faced General asked Fu Junlin: "You are the lord of a city, why have you become so unreasonable? Is it really so important to break through to a higher realm and gain stronger power?"
"Our Lieyang City has always been isolated from the world, and the sun has always been bright and sunny. But since you reached an agreement with that person, look at what all the people have become in these years? Don't you even want to recognize me as your son?
"
Sonorous and powerful, every word is precious. The Iron-faced General just wants his father not to make the same mistake again and again. If he continues to believe in that man and leaves this beam of light in Lieyang City, he will only fall into eternal disaster.
"Don't you notice that the spiritual energy in the entire city has gradually dried up. Even the life energy in everyone is gradually disappearing? Why do you think this is happening?"
Holding City Master Fu's hand, the Iron-faced General's face was covered with scars, extending to his neck: "The spiritual power in my body is about to dissipate. If he hadn't taken action, I'm afraid you wouldn't be able to see me anymore."
"There is no such thing as a free lunch in the world, father, please turn back and make the best of it!"
Unexpectedly, City Master Fu threw him away and said coldly: "Take the young master down and take good care of him. If he persists in his obsession, then never let him out. This is my order, execute it immediately.
"
Finally, the Iron-faced General glanced at the back of City Master Fu sadly: "Haha... haha... What do you think will happen if you seek the skin of a tiger? If you continue to persist in your stubbornness, sooner or later you will reap the consequences."
At night, in a remote courtyard in Lieyang City.
Because the three pharmacists were seriously injured and the spiritual power in their bodies was not high, they quickly fell into rest and breath control. Only Feng Mian and Dashan were left in the center of the yard, standing quietly side by side.
"Dashan, look at the flaming clouds over there. Can you tell what it is?"
Feng Mian pointed ahead. The clouds above the light pillar gradually turned bright red and were spreading in all directions.
Scratching his head, Dashan has a simple mind. Apart from being interested in fighting, he doesn't want to delve too deeply into anything else. He always takes it one step at a time and takes it wherever he goes. Anyway, the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge.
"I don't understand. Just say what you see. Why do you have to do this? This Lieyang City is indeed very strange. It looks like Lieyang City on the surface, but it can't feel the slightest breath of sunlight. Instead, it is full of darkness."
With one hand behind his back, Feng Mian smiled mysteriously: "It's not that I can't sense it, it's because the so-called holy light formed by the beam of light and the red light absorbs and swallows up the energy of the blazing sun and cannot be dispersed."
When the conversation changed, Feng Mian glanced at Dashan: "Besides, I feel a familiar aura. I guess this so-called God's Curse, or the Holy Fire, is the handiwork of that person. It's so profound!"
I was confused, but Dashan didn't want to pursue it: "Anyway, if you have a solution, just help them. I feel that most of them are ordinary people. If this continues, there is only a dead end."
The aura of "holy fire" has always surrounded Lieyang City, secretly plundering the life energy of the people. Feng Mian actually felt the strongest aura of the same on the city lord, so in other words, the key lies with him.
"Haha...Interesting, really interesting. Was this Lieyang City a game he had planned a long time ago? It seems that the Iron-faced General was also a pawn in it. He didn't know he was being used. He thought he could solve it."
While they were talking, the corners of Feng Mian's mouth slowly turned up, revealing a strange arc: "It seems that someone can't hold it in anymore. Our uninvited guest has disrupted the previous plan, so do we have to deal with it?"
Hearing this, Dashan waved his right hand, and a broadsword appeared, with a series of circles spinning on it.
The sword energy spreads and is very strong: "So, there is a fight to be fought? That's great, I'm interested in this."
With one step, he rushed directly into the air. With a wave of the big sword, the sword energy spread to all directions, then gathered into a sword shadow and slashed hard in front of him. The void trembled and almost shattered.
The man in front of him appeared, and with a little finger, a burst of thunderous air erupted from him. The electric arc flashed and directly clamped the mountain's blade. With a flick, he quickly stepped back. This force was extraordinary.
"Something's wrong. Why is the strength at the peak of the Spiritual Void Realm so strong? What's going on with the cyclones around here? Could it be that all the energy in this range is echoing it? Why are there such weird tricks?"
Feng Mian stepped forward and blocked the mountain. He gathered energy in his palms. Shadows flew around, surrounding the person in front of him. His palm prints whirled, attacking every vital part of him in an instant. The sound of continuous explosions fluctuated.
He opened his hands, and the person in front of him appeared in front of Feng Mian with the power of his Earthly Evil Palm. Then he struck out fiercely, and both sides exchanged palms and stepped back at the same time.
"As expected, you actually used this so-called holy fire to turn the entire Lieyang City into a tool for your use. You used the light pillar as a medium to absorb the spiritual energy of the world and break through the realm during the battle. What a domineering way."
After a pause, Feng Mian looked at the other person. In fact, he already knew his identity, but just wanted to know what he wanted to do. So Feng Mian stopped moving and stared at him quietly.
"City Master Fu, since you came here late at night, you must not just test your cultivation level, right? Did I ruin your plan? Or do you think I will be an anomaly, which makes you very uneasy."
With a wave of his hand, Fu Junlin revealed his true face: "Feng Mian, do you think I don't know your identity? I keep you here because I don't want to cause trouble. I advise you to leave as soon as possible, otherwise..."
"Oh? Otherwise, what does the city lord want? Turn me into a puppet that may be corrupted at any time. I don't understand why you listen to that man so much? What benefits did he give you?"
