The guard looked down at Lu Xiaoyue, saw the signature silver sword in her arms, and the standard figure of a nine-year-old girl, and was instantly excited.
"You...you...you are..."
The guard was trembling all over and stuttered a bit when he spoke.
Lu Xiaoyue was not surprised at all by this reaction. She just shook her head helplessly and repeated what she said before: "Open the door, I want to go in!"
"Okay... okay..." The guard quickly woke up and nodded quickly.
After saying this, he tremblingly walked to the door, pushed the door open with all his strength, ducked in, and ran away.
"She's coming, she's coming!" the guard shouted as he ran.
Who is this "she"? Even if she doesn't say it clearly, everyone in the City Lord's Mansion knows...
This sentence quickly spread to the inner courtyard. City Lord Cang Yan and others were still opening the door. After hearing this, they immediately woke up. They stopped talking one by one and quietly pricked up their ears, wanting to confirm what they had just said.
Did you hear it wrong?
However, the guard seemed to have forgotten to repeat himself, and after finishing the first sentence, his voice completely disappeared.
This made everyone in the inner courtyard anxious, like ants on a hot pot.
However, this feeling did not last long. Lu Xiaoyue quickly opened the door to the inner courtyard and appeared in front of everyone.
As soon as that petite figure appeared, everyone in the inner courtyard looked over and their eyes widened.
Many people can't believe it. In their impression, Lu Xiaoyue is a murderous demon king who not only destroyed the city lord's palace in Donglian City, but also killed all the way in and eliminated all the robbers on the road.
Not a single one is left.
How could such a person be so petite and cute?
However, their thoughts only lasted for less than half a minute, but when they saw the silver sword in Lu Xiaoyue's arms, almost everyone took a breath.
"Hiss, hiss... Is that the legendary sword?" Behind the city lord and the group of people, a group of disciples from the Eagle Shadow Sect whispered.
"Not bad! I heard it's a very powerful sword."
"What a powerful method?"
"I don't know... I don't think I have any particularly impressive achievements, but the legend is that I am very powerful..."
"Tsk tsk... I heard that when Lu Xiaoyue first became famous, she used a wooden sword, but now she uses a silver sword. It seems that her swordsmanship is very good."
"Indeed, her swordsmanship is very unique..."
"But we haven't seen her before... I want to fight her and test the power of that sword."
"Okay, just wait until you are the first to appear!" Senior Brother Liu nodded and agreed.
The disciples of the Eagle Shadow Sect were not too afraid of Lu Xiaoyue, and they made a decision to deal with her while talking and laughing.
The disciple was not afraid of the stage and nodded directly in response: "Okay!"
Lu Xiaoyue walked over slowly, looked at the crowd of people, and immediately frowned.
"Where is the city lord? Where is the city lord of your Cangxing City?" She thought for a moment and then asked first.
"I'm here!"
Cang Yan pushed aside the crowd, walked out slowly from the crowd, and faced Lu Xiaoyue directly.
Lu Xiaoyue looked at the man who claimed to be the city lord. He was a talented man, seven feet tall, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. He looked quite majestic.
He just stood in front of everyone, there was not much fear in his eyes, but a calmness that looked down on life and death.
"Are you the City Lord? Hello, I am Lu Xiaoyue, the owner of the Moon Martial Arts School." Lu Xiaoyue took the lead in introducing herself.
"Hello... hello! My name is Cang Yan... I am the city lord of Cangxing City."
Cang Yan didn't expect that Lu Xiaoyue would greet him, and most of the anger she had been holding was released in an instant.
When he originally stood up, he already had death in mind, but the other party not only had no intention of taking action, but instead gave him a friendly greeting.
What does this mean?
"I came here today to discuss something with you..." Lu Xiaoyue didn't bother to be polite and went straight to the point and stated the purpose of her trip: "Can you give up your position as city lord to someone else?"
"Ah? No!" Cang Yan was stunned for a moment, but she quickly came to her senses and rejected the proposal in one breath.
"Why?" Lu Xiaoyue tilted her head and continued to ask.
Why? The position of City Lord of Cangxing City has been passed down from generation to generation in my family. It should have been mine... Why should I give it to someone else?
Besides, I have been working hard as the city lord and have never made any big mistakes. Why should I give up the position of city lord to others?
Can others do better than me?
"There is no reason!" Cang Yan shook her head repeatedly and said with a look of dissatisfaction: "It is impossible to give up the position of City Lord to you. Even if you want to kill everyone in our City Lord's Mansion, we will not give in!"
"Who said I'm going to kill all of you?" Lu Xiaoyue glared and said in confusion: "Don't you know the current situation in Cangxing City? The cities of Hanling Kingdom must unite to resist foreign enemies. Dongfang
The Three Cities cannot continue like this."
"The Hanling Kingdom has been destroyed, how can we resist foreign enemies? The three eastern cities have always been like this. We are living well on our own and don't need you outsiders to take care of us!" Cang Yan said righteously.
After hearing this, Lu Xiaoyue couldn't help but shook her head in disappointment.
Although the city lord of Cangxing City is good at managing the city, his vision is not far-sighted. No wonder he brought Cangxing City to this state!
Now that foreign enemies have invaded, the West Shang Kingdom has invaded brazenly, and after other cities in the Hanling Kingdom have fallen, how can Cangxing City be able to survive alone?
I'm afraid this city lord doesn't understand the meaning of lips dying and teeth falling cold.
Jian Zhen also had such thoughts, but he thought it was quite normal to have such thoughts.
Cangxing City is so isolated, which naturally affects the thinking of the people here.
It would be abnormal for a small city and a small city lord to have world-wide thoughts.
"Cangyan City Lord, although the royal family of Hanling Kingdom has perished, the city of Hanling Kingdom has not fallen, and the people of Hanling Kingdom have not perished! The royal family is gone, we can build a new Hanling Kingdom by ourselves! Now that foreign enemies have invaded,
The top priority is to unite and resist together, and solve the foreign invasion first!" Lu Xiaoyue's words were plausible and she expressed all her thoughts.
Especially the sentence "Although the royal family of Hanling Kingdom perished, the cities of Hanling Kingdom did not fall, and the people of Hanling Kingdom did not perish." The eyes of everyone present were brightened, and they felt like they were looking up to the mountains.
The people of Cangxing City have been autistic for hundreds of years. They have long lost sight of the world and only want this one-third of an acre of land in front of them.
Suddenly hearing such majestic words with the world in mind, I felt suddenly enlightened.
