The City Lord's Mansion is the place where the highest orders are issued in the trapped city. However, the City Lord here is just a Ghost King, but he has a strong background, so he was arranged to be the City Lord here.
Because the other party's cultivation level was not high, Xiaobao did not include him in his invitation range.
Moreover, the city lord is so high up that even if the ghost commander meets him, he still needs to be notified. With Xiaobao's status, it is simply impossible to invite him to his mansion.
And the person who can be the city lord here must have some means. If the other party sees his purpose, wouldn't it be enough to alert the enemy?
Xiaobao's mansion looks relatively simple, consisting of only one hall and several rooms, so it doesn't need many guards.
Not long after Xiaobao issued the order, all the dozen or so guards were cleared away, and then replaced with their own people without anyone noticing.
After Xiao Yu and the others entered the trapped city, the Underworld secretly sent a thousand soldiers, disguised as hell people, to sneak into the trapped city.
Therefore, the current trapped city seems to be the territory of hell, but there are thousands of ghosts mixed in it, waiting for Xiao Yu and the others to dispatch.
Xiaobao walked swaggeringly in the trapped city, and stood directly at the door of the city lord's mansion under the gaze of everyone.
The City Lord's Mansion looks magnificent, just like a palace, with stone pillars neatly lined up in a row, and many soul beasts carved on them, giving people a very mysterious feeling.
The City Lord's Mansion is in the center of the trapped city, and it is also the most important place in the trapped city. As long as the city lord's palace falls, the trapped city will basically fall.
"Please inform the city lord that Xiaobao has something important to report."
Xiaobao had been here when he was named the general who defended the city, so he was very familiar with the terrain.
Although many people already know him, they still need to report before they can enter.
"General, wait a moment..."
The ghost soldiers at the door quickly went in to convey the message, but Xiaobao started patrolling left and right.
The City Lord's Mansion is located in the center of the trapped city. It is also a beautiful scenery of the trapped city. Every ghost who comes to the trapped city will come here to take a look.
So at this time, there were many ghosts standing around in twos and threes, pointing at the city lord's mansion.
"Who is that kid? He looks very powerful."
A kid stood in the distance and asked in a low voice.
"You don't know this, right? That's not a child, but a general. His strength is the King of Ghosts."
Another ghost explained in a low voice.
Yinhuns are no different than humans. The older you are or the taller you are, the more powerful you are. It depends on the length of time you have practiced.
"Ghost King, such a small Ghost King?"
"Of course, he is very powerful. He has defeated many strong men in succession, and he also knows the languages of those big families. If you go up to him, you will definitely be killed in one move."
Waves of whispers reached Xiaobao's ears from different angles, which made the other person even more proud, with his little head raised high and his face full of rebelliousness.
"General Xiaobao, the city lord invites you to come in."
Just when Xiaobao was enjoying the praise, the ghost soldier responsible for reporting hurriedly ran out.
The messenger ghost soldier bowed to Xiaobao, then stood aside and continued his work as a gatekeeper.
Xiaobao nodded, then strode inside.
In the back garden of the city lord's mansion, a fat man over fifty years old was admiring flowers.
Behind the man, there were five or six hot-bodied women wearing animal skins. They were holding fruit plates and standing in the back with shy faces.
"You guys go down..."
The man waved his hand casually, and the maids nearby bowed and retreated.
"Xiaobao?
I heard that people who know how to deal with the upper classes in hell would say things like that, are they really the disciples of those upper class families?"
The man said to himself, broke off a white flower, put it under his nose and smelled it, with a different expression on his face.
"Sir, General Xiaobao is here."
A maid took Xiaobao directly to the back garden, shouted softly, and then retreated.
"Xiaobao, come on, I'm looking for you for something. I didn't expect you to come. Come and sit."
The fat man turned around and looked at Xiaobao, who was eight or nine years old, with an extremely enthusiastic expression on his face.
"Lord City Lord..."
Xiaobao bent down and performed a Western etiquette on the other party, which made the fat city lord smile even more.
"Haha, okay, we are all our own people, don't have so many rules."
The city lord waved his hand, and two wooden benches and a small table appeared on the ground.
"Come on, the tribute wine just arrived. We haven't had time to taste it yet. We can try it now that you are here."
The city lord stepped forward and took Xiaobao's hand, like a kind elder, his face full of kindness.
"Thank you City Lord..."
Xiaobao smiled politely and followed the other person's steps to sit on the stone bench, thinking about Xiao Yu's original warning.
"You must not be careless in the city lord's palace. You must act cautiously. If you can't handle it yourself, just wait for them to come back."
This is what Xiao Yu told Xiaobao in his letter. Even Xiaobao's previous actions were arranged by Xiao Yu in advance.
"I'm so excited, Lord City Lord. There's a war going on at the border. You are indeed here to enjoy the flowers. Aren't you afraid of the Yinsi's army rushing here?"
Xiaobao asked half-jokingly.
"Haha, there's no harm in rushing here. As long as the city lord's palace is here, the trapped city will be safe."
The fat man smiled proudly, then waved his hand and took out a bottle of wine and two wine glasses.
"Why is this?
How can the city lord keep the city safe when he is the only master in the city lord's mansion?"
Xiaobao now somewhat understood why Xiao Yu asked him to be careful in the first place. It seemed that there was indeed a problem.
"Hey, the trapped city has stood here for thousands of years, so it naturally has its own unique features. You don't need to worry, just drink and have fun every day.
Let those soldiers fight outside. When the time is up, both sides will retreat and everyone will still be in peace."
The city lord seemed to be on guard. He only spoke half of the sentence and then did not continue. Instead, he raised his wine glass.
When Xiaobao saw this, his face was still full of doubts, but he did not ask again.
"Since the Lord of the City has such great confidence, I feel relieved.
The group leader is our real bread and butter, and you are much more important than us.
I don’t think it’s better than this. We send a message to hire some ghost handsome men to protect you. At the same time, it can also scare the underworld so that they don’t dare to attack easily.”
Although Xiaobao is young, he is not stupid.
I knew that if I asked the other party directly, the city lord would definitely be suspicious, so I used this method to find out the details of the city lord's mansion.
Sure enough, the city lord laughed immediately after hearing this.
In his eyes, although Xiaobao is the Ghost King, he is still a child after all, so he is much less wary.
"It's okay, I may seem dangerous here, but I'm as stable as a mountain.
With the protection of ghost kings like you, the underworld will not dare to come casually. Besides, I still have tens of thousands of troops.
The Eighteen Peaks of the Underworld and Hell are fighting at the same time, so it’s too busy!
It is impossible to fight for a long time on a border with a long front line like this. If this happens, the soldiers on both sides will definitely not be able to stand it."
The city lord seemed to be very confident, and there was no trace of fear on his face, which made Xiaobao even more confused, where did the other party's confidence come from?
