"Qianye... I really hope it's Lao Yan who is looking for me."
Jiang Chen muttered in his heart.
Qianye, the city lord of Gantian City, is known as the leader of the eight kings of the city lords.
Civil and military achievements are comprehensive.
A senior background story researcher in his previous life said that Qianye may not be the strongest combat power, but he is definitely the most troublesome thing to his opponent.
Jiang Chen is still very cautious about such a role.
He was wondering why the other party wanted to see him.
"Let's go, Lord Adventurer."
The guards shouted again, pulling back Jiang Chen's distracted thoughts.
"OK."
Jiang Chen nodded and followed the guards.
Then, several people followed the spiral stairs of the palace and arrived at the fifth floor.
There is a spacious door on the front.
This is the place where the city lord handles official duties.
At the warning sign of the guards, Jiang Chen walked straight in.
The facilities inside are extremely simple, with nothing but a long wooden table and a few chairs.
At the wooden table, a tall and thin man in black was sitting.
He looks like he is about forty years old.
The information shows that his name is [Qianye]!
The most eye-catching thing is that a strange word was stabbed on his right forehead.
This is not a common font for the Gods Continent, but a half-orcs' text, meaning "slave"!
As far as Jiang Chen knows, Qian Ye’s background information says that when he was young, the village was looted by a group of orcs, and he was captured and used as a slave!
The word "slave" on the orcs on his forehead was also stabbed at that time.
Qianye frowned and thought, while using his index finger to beat the tabletop rhythmically.
Seeing Jiang Chen coming in, he stopped his fingers and said, "Please sit down, please."
"The Lord of Thousand City knows me?"
Jiang Chen asked and sat generously on the chair.
"I guessed it."
Qian Ye looked at Jiang Chen and said in a low voice: "At the same time, I have confirmed it at Yan Changfeng."
Jiang Chen asked again: "Who is Qiancheng Lord looking for me?"
Qianye did not answer, but asked, "If you guessed correctly, you should be going to the Winter Ice Field soon, right?"
How do you know this?
Jiang Chen was slightly stunned and immediately said, "It should be."
"should……"
After pondering for a moment, Qianye continued, "So, you haven't taken over the mission to the Winter Icefield yet, and you don't know what the mission is."
"Yes, I don't know what the mission is."
Jiang Chen nodded and said in confusion: "Do you know?"
"I know."
Qian Ye said slowly: "When my Sword Saint Senior Brother released the Luo Yun Volcano Mission, I knew what he wanted to do."
“So what the hell is it?”
Jiang Chen's face became more and more confused. Why can Wuming's mission be involved in Qianye?
"The cold winter ice field trapped a damn guy. I thought it was my nameless senior brother who went to deal with it himself, but I didn't expect that he handed over the mission to the adventurers, which was a pity."
Qianye said to himself.
Although he didn't quite understand the entire meaning of the other party's words, Jiang Chen still came up with useful information.
He asked, "So, this mission is to kill the trapped guy in Winter Icefield?"
"Yes, but..."
Qianye paused and said slowly: "I don't want that guy to die like this!"
"What?"
Jiang Chen was stunned. He thought he had heard it wrong, "Don't you want that guy to die?"
"That's why I'm looking for you!"
Qianye looked at Jiang Chen intently and said seriously: "I hope you don't complete the task and disrupt the situation, so that other adventurers can't complete the task. I know you have this ability."
"Don't complete the task? Wait..."
Jiang Chen waved his hand quickly and said quickly: "No, does Lord Qiancheng know what the mission reward is?"
Qian Ye said calmly, "Tell me, look."
"A levelless king equipment!"
Jiang Chen then said, "Besides, if I don't complete the task, not only will the reward be lost, but I will also be punished!"
"I'm really willing to give it to you!"
Qianye smiled and said, "I can also give you a levelless king equipment. As for punishment, you can just not take on the task. You should know that not completing the task is much simpler than completing the task!"
"I'm afraid it won't work without taking on the task."
Jiang Chen paused and said, "Brother Wuming asked me in advance, and I have agreed, otherwise I wouldn't know what the reward is."
The most important thing is that Wuming still has some favorability towards him.
If we violate this matter in a bad way, the relationship between the two parties may change from friendship to evil.
The other party is the nameless sword saint!
The losses behind them are immeasurable.
"It turns out that he has found you in advance. It seems that your relationship is pretty good..."
Qian Ye frowned and murmured, "If this is the case, it will be not easy to deal with."
Seeing the other party fall into deep thought, Jiang Chen asked, "Can I ask, why don't Lord Qian want to complete the mission?"
Qianye asked: "Do you know who the mission target is?"
Jiang Chen said curiously: "Who?"
Qianye said in a deep voice: "Prince of the Orcs, Sak!"
The orc prince?
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows and subconsciously glanced at the tattoo on the other party's forehead.
He remembered that Qianye hated the most was the orcs. Why did he stop the mission of killing the orcs prince?
Jiang Chen asked in confusion: "Since you are trapped, isn't it good to kill it?"
"It's not bad, but..."
Qianye paused and said, "I have always advocated a full-scale war with the Orcs, but because they have become much low-key in recent years, many of our people do not agree to start the war. Sak is my greatest opportunity!"
"Get into full war with the Orcs?"
Jiang Chen felt a little surprised, and then he was puzzled: "Why is Sak the biggest opportunity for you?"
"Sako has the purest bloodline of the Orc King. As long as it does not die, the Orcs will not give up the opportunity to save it. At that time, there will naturally be a chance to trigger greater conflicts. Once there is an opportunity, it is inevitable to start a war!
”
"But if Sak died so quietly, the orcs would only choose to swallow their anger and want to start a full war, and there would be little chance."
Qian Ye said slowly, his seemingly calm eyes were full of murderous intent.
"I probably understand..."
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen thought for a while and said, "There is no other way to cause war?"
"Other way?"
Qian Ye's eyes narrowed slightly, and he shook his head and said, "Unless they are caught by another half-orc princess, they will definitely not agree to this matter!"
"The Holy See of Light and the Imperial City are both involved. If you don't want to start a full-scale war with the Orcs, even as the leader of a city, I will face a lot of pressure. Otherwise, I would have killed the Orcs alone.
The tribe territory is here!”
Qianye just finished speaking.
A smile appeared on Jiang Chen's face, and he slowly said: "You can't go, I can go!
