Xiao Yan nodded and said, "As long as you cooperate well, I will let you live when the time comes." After saying that, she turned to look at Tong Yan and said, "Master, let me handle this. You go out and take a look."
"Okay, be careful yourself."
After watching Tong Yan leave, Xiao Yan walked to Zhongxuan and said: "Let's go to your room." Zhongxuan stood up obediently and asked as he walked: "Who are you?"
"You don't know even if you tell me."
"I can keep you here for one night, but you'd better leave tomorrow."
"Why?"
"Tomorrow the Ghost King will send someone to Yantang City to discuss anything with me."
Hearing this, Xiao Yan frowned and said, "That's my business, you don't need to worry about it." When she came to Zhongxuan's bedroom, Xiao Yan sealed Zhongxuan's cultivation so that he could not move. After processing,
, she immediately left the city lord's palace, rushed to Tong Yan's side, and conveyed Zhongxuan's words to him.
"Master, if the Ghost King sends people to Yantang City, what will we do?"
"You must stay by Zhongxuan's side at all times, and never let him be alone with others. As for the people sent by the Ghost King... we will talk about it later. Let's first see what the background of the people he sends is."
One night passed.
The next morning, Xiao Yan unlocked the restraints on Zhongxuan and accompanied him to the gate of Yantang City. Not long after, a team of more than ten people appeared in their sight.
"Remember my words, if you dare to reveal my identity, I will kill you first, and then kill others." Seeing the other party approaching, Xiao Yan threatened in a low voice. As she said that, she took out another
A purple elixir was handed to the other person's hand, "Take it. If I have something wrong with you, and there is no antidote, you won't be able to live."
Under Xiao Yan's gaze, Zhongxuan reluctantly swallowed the pill. At the same time, the team finally arrived outside Yantang City. Seeing the man leading the team, Xiao Yan's face couldn't help but change.
He quickly moved to his side, lowering his head for fear of being discovered by the other party. "City Lord Zhong, long time no see." The man walked over slowly with his hands behind his back.
"Yantang City respectfully welcomes Mr. Cheng." Zhongxuan bowed his body and bowed respectfully.
Cheng Kuan said calmly: "Okay, no need to be polite, let's go in and talk."
"Yes, sir, please come this way." After saying this, Zhongxuan followed closely behind Cheng Kuan and walked into the city. Xiao Yan at the side hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth, and followed.
Outside Zhuoyang City, she had fought with Cheng Kuan and had met each other. If Cheng Kuan could see her face clearly, he would definitely recognize her identity. When she was in Zhuoyang City, she had seen Cheng Kuan.
Although they were both supremely powerful, she was unsure of defeating him in a one-on-one contest. At this moment, she felt very anxious. She thought the Ghost King would only send a messenger, but instead of coming, it was Cheng Kuan. Followed.
Not long after the team walked out, Xiao Yan began to slow down and deliberately fell behind the team. Then, she escaped from the team in a flash.
After a while, she rushed to Tong Yan's residence and said urgently: "Master, it's not good."
"Don't be anxious yet. Speak slowly."
"The person sent by the Ghost King is Cheng Kuan."
"Cheng Kuan?" Tong Yan's expression changed and he said in surprise: "It's actually him!"
"Master, Cheng Kuan knows who I am, and I don't dare to stay with Zhongxuan."
