After the sword rain, corpses were everywhere on the ground, and the starry sky-like illusion was also riddled with holes. In the entire compound, except for Li Qingyun, only the city lord Feng Huayu was still alive.
"Look, why bother? If you force me to do it, I will make a mess all over the floor and have to clean it up." Li Qingyun said, casually waving his hand and collecting the corpses all over the floor into a small space.
For a moment, except for some blood stains and traces of unknown liquid, the ground was empty, as if no battle had ever happened...if this massacre could be called a battle.
"Li Qingyun, how strong are you?" Feng Huayu suppressed his fear and asked in a dry voice the biggest doubt in his heart.
"In order to make your death clear, I can tell you that I am only one step away from reaching the ninth realm." Li Qingyun looked at this duplicitous villain calmly, thankful that he showed his true face before he left.
"Only one step away from the Ya Sheng? I am really blind. For that little benefit, I personally cut off the contact with the Ya Sheng. I deserve to die!" Feng Huayu was desperate, closed his eyes and waited for death.
"I wanted to keep you alive. I wanted to cut you into pieces and let you experience all the torture before killing you. Now that I think about it, there is no point in doing so. I'm tired of killing people. It's boring."
With that said, Li Qingyun raised his hand, beheaded Feng Huayu, and at the same time dragged his corpse into the small space, using his body as fertilizer for planting to nourish the small space.
Regardless of whether it is the real person or a ghost clone, killing people and collecting corpses has become an instinct, and the awareness of environmental protection is deeply rooted in the bones.
The commotion caused by this fight had already alarmed the entire city lord's palace and the entire Changze City masters.
Li Qingyun's full blow produced a terrifying wave that was infinitely close to that of the Ya Sheng. No master could ignore that kind of aura.
Feng Huayu's black-clothed guards, the most loyal group, had been wiped out by the sword rain just now. The remaining guards and servants, trembling under Li Qingyun's powerful aura, waited for defeat, not daring to make any more resistance.
The heads of the elders of Changze City were frightened and asked people everywhere to inquire about what happened.
It wasn't until the news came back that the city lord and the Thorny Family set up a trap to attack Li Qingyun, but was killed by Li Qingyun. This result was unexpected, but it made him feel relieved.
As long as Li Qingyun doesn't kill people indiscriminately, isn't it good for everyone to maintain the status quo?
Now that the city lord is dead, who will be the city lord?
Every city lord in the Snake Tail Star has an origin and background, and is backed by a big power and clan. It doesn’t mean that whoever kills the city lord can succeed him. It’s not that simple.
"I am Li Qingyun. I have just killed Feng Huayu, but I have no ambitions for this city and no ill will towards everyone. Elders of the City Lord's Mansion, please come to the City Lord's Mansion to discuss matters."
Li Qingyun sent a message to the entire Changze City, letting every living being know what happened.
Li Qingyun was also helpless. He was about to leave and wander around freely, learning the secrets of planting and understanding the planting rules here, so that he could complete the tasks assigned to him by the deity.
However, before leaving, Feng Huayu gave himself such a surprise, so how could he leave? If he didn't arrange the place thoroughly, he wouldn't feel at ease when he left.
After thinking about it, I still feel that my time in the world of wood spirits is too short, and I have no time to cultivate my own people and have no trustworthy confidants.
As for the group of half-demon, their strength is so poor that even if they were trusted, they would not be able to control a huge city.
Li Qingyun suddenly felt regretful. He didn't know that he had watched the clan spirit being killed. If he had left him behind and forcefully instilled some spring water essence, it would have been able to help him.
"It's too late to regret now. Maybe I should go to the Lei Ze deep in the starry sky to look for my own people? Or look for my parents who don't know whether to live or die?"
Li Qingyun was sitting on the main chair in the council hall of the City Lord's Mansion, brooding over his thoughts, wishing he could just slap his butt and leave this land of right and wrong, and continue his mission journey.
Soon, all the elders arrived, and they were all anxious and uneasy. They didn't know what Li Qingyun had to tell them. They knew that Li Qingyun was not the city lord and had no right to order him, but he had the strength and could kill the city lord.
Kill them.
Until more powerful masters arrive, just be patient.
"I heard that being a city lord is difficult?" Li Qingyun glanced at the housekeeper of the city lord's mansion who was lying at the door of the meeting hall, and asked the elders present.
"This... is indeed difficult." The elders looked at each other with bitter expressions, gritted their teeth, and said fiercely, "But Fellow Daoist Li is very powerful. As long as you repel the elders of the Wood Demon Alliance who come to question you, your position will be consolidated.
.”
"Elder of the Wood Demon Alliance? What level?" Li Qingyun never thought about becoming a city lord, so he just asked casually.
"It is said that there are masters with the strength of the Sixth Realm of Fruition, and there are also masters of the Seventh Realm of Fruition! You know, our Serpentine Star is a remote planet, and the real top masters are not willing to live for a long time. Most of them practice in seclusion on the big planet with strong wood spiritual energy.
.”
"He is indeed a top expert in the Sixth and Seventh Realms of Guo. I am under great pressure and it seems that I can't beat him! However, since everyone has pointed out the way for me, it would be too embarrassing for you if you don't give it a try. Why don't I just do it reluctantly?
Try it?"
Li Qingyun pinched his chin, as if hesitant and distressed, and no one else could see his inner reaction.
"..." The elders were speechless, thinking in their hearts, can you stop forcing yourself? It's as if we are forcing you to become the city lord!
"By the way, since you all elected me to be the city lord, shouldn't I have to pay the taxes for this term? It's very tiring for me to be the city lord and protect everyone's safety. Even if I don't want this jade stone, these guards under me will eat and drink.
Lazarus cannot sleep without these worldly things. You are the elders and you have a share of the profits, so you have to help me urge it!"
"..." Damn, can you use foul language? If you can't say it, I'll shut up! The New Year has just passed, everyone has paid their taxes, right? You just became the city lord... No, you haven't become the city lord yet.
I just want everyone to submit it again. You are not so evil, right?
"What are your expressions? Do you agree or disagree? When Feng Huayu becomes the city lord, you all pay taxes and fees, but when I, Li Qingyun, become the city lord, you don't pay? Do you look down on me?"
"..." If I don't dare, I really look down on you. You killed Feng Huayu and didn't take over his storage space or the warehouse of the city lord's mansion? You asked us to pay the tax again, isn't it mattress wool? No.
Scrape three feet off the ground?
"You just agreed without saying anything? Haha, thank you for your support. From now on, the security of Changze City will be left to me. I heard that some beast monsters and insect monsters are ready to attack Changze City, so let them
Don't move for ever. This matter will be decided tonight, and there is only a three-day deadline for paying taxes."
"..." All the elders were about to cry, but who on earth agreed? To support? To support your sister! If you want to provoke those old monsters like insects, monsters, beasts, monsters, go ahead yourself, just don't get involved with us!
With complicated and anxious thoughts, the elders bid farewell to Li Qingyun, left the City Lord's Mansion, and returned to their families to spread the news about today's departure.
The new city lord collects taxes... Bah, no, it is definitely a big deal for the city lord who has not yet taken office to want to collect taxes again.
There are ordinary creatures who feel that the taxes and fees are too heavy and want to leave Changze City. However, there is chaos outside and monsters are running rampant. They are howling and wanting to eat the fresh wood monsters. If they go out now, they will be killed.
To leave or to stay, that is a question! But everyone is waiting to see if Li Qingyun can take up the position of city lord.
That night, a group of insect monsters and beast monsters harassed Changze City again. The insects roared and the monsters roared, and they planned to attack the city.
A sword came from the west, shining brightly in Changze, and thousands of monsters, beasts and insects were wiped out on the spot.
Thousands of miles away, deep in the mountains and old forests, there is an old demon roaring, black clouds rolling, covering the sky and the earth, flying sand and rocks, raging in the wilderness.
The old monster who has been doing little things behind his back recently couldn't stand Li Qingyun's killings anymore and showed up in person to have a showdown.
"The wood demon has ruled for too long, it's time for us beast demons and insect demons to take charge!"
"The way of heaven is dead, and the insect monsters are here to stand. My ancestor, Baimu, comes out of seclusion today and will definitely bloodbath Changze City and avenge his dead children and grandchildren!"
"Bloody the city of Changze, occupy the Snake Tail Star, and carve out a future for our beast race and Zerg race tonight! All old friends, let's take action together!"
The movements of these old demons were so great that they alarmed all the creatures in the city. Some timid creatures had already begun to pack up their belongings and prepare to escape.
The patriarchs of each family flew into the air and worriedly checked the situation outside the city. When they saw the demonic aura billowing and the murderous intent, they were all extremely worried.
Not caring about anything, he immediately shouted in the direction of the city lord's palace, saying that he was willing to pay the taxes and fees, and asked the "city lord" Li Qingyun to take action immediately and send experts to clean up the rebellious beast monsters and insect monsters.
The sword rain appeared again. I don't know where it came from, and I don't know where it was going. Just a cold light suddenly appeared, causing the dark clouds in the sky to dissipate, and there was deathly silence outside the city.
Until dawn, not a single monster dared to howl outside the city, and it was as quiet as a ghost land.
After the green sunlight rose into the sky, some bold creatures ran up the city wall and looked outside. All kinds of blood soaked the ground, and no corpses were seen. Only some carapace and bone fragments remained.
Some people were surprised and went to check outside the city in person. They were horrified to find that there was not a single formed beast monster or insect monster within a thousand miles. They seemed to have died overnight.
When the news came back, the whole city was shocked, and some thoughtful beast monsters and insect monsters in the city were also trembling with fear and did not dare to do anything unusual.
On the same day, news came back from all nineteen cities in the Snake Tail Star, saying that beast monsters and insect monsters attacked the city on the same night. Three cities changed hands and were robbed by powerful beast monsters and insect monsters. The killings were like a Shura field.
, corpses litter the fields.
Only Nagasawa City had not even breached its gates, let alone damaged a single wall brick. It was a city that wiped out attackers in an instant, and its front line was astonishing.
