Zhang Yifeng raised his finger and counted the time, estimating that Xiang Zhen should have also finished clearing out the remaining bandit cultivators in the city.
If Xiang Zhen was the only one taking people there, it would naturally not be so fast.
But this time Su Zhirou and others were also accompanying them.
Even if others don't take action, Zhirou's Immortal Realm strength is enough to sweep away these bandit cultivators.
Sure enough, after Zhang Yifeng lowered the barrier in the living room, a burst of footsteps came from outside the door.
The three of them walked out together and saw that Xiang Zhen had returned safely with the others.
Everyone's clothes are spotless, and they come back the same way they went out.
Only one of them was different. Lei Ao was seen holding the hilt of the Thunder God Sword tightly, and his body was still trembling slightly.
There were still wet stains on his face and body, as if he had just crawled out of a sea of blood from a mountain of corpses.
Zhang Yifeng didn't see much strangeness when he saw this. He had long known that Lei Ao would definitely come back like this when he went there.
After all, these bandit cultivators were basically involved in destroying the entire Lei family. Lei Ao, who was eager for revenge, would not let any of them go.
As Xiang Zhen walked along, his eyes stayed on Lei Ao, his eyes full of concern.
It seems that this trip to suppress bandits has made him more worried about Lei Ao.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, are you back so soon?"
Xiang Zhen was concerned about Lei Ao's condition all the way, and only noticed Zhang Yifeng and the others when he got closer.
This time he went to suppress the bandits, which had already exceeded his expectations.
Before Xiang Zhen could let people surround the place where the bandit cultivators were hiding, Su Zhirou and the others rushed in.
In a short time, all the hundreds of bandit cultivators hidden inside were wiped out, and only the leader was uncovered.
And at Lei Ao's insistence, the leader was killed with his own hands.
Later, Lei Ao also learned a lot and quickly followed Su Zhirou and others into the bandit's den.
In this short period of time, all the bandit cultivators that had been hiding in Beihai City were wiped out.
If this had happened before, this would have been something Xiang Zhen would never have dared to dream about.
At the same time, after this bandit suppression, Xiang Zhen was also frightened.
With these bandit cultivators lurking in Beihai City, they are fully capable of killing the entire city lord's mansion silently.
Fortunately, Zhang Yifeng came to help, otherwise he alone would have been completely wiped out by these bandit cultivators.
What surprised Xiang Zhen even more was that Zhang Yifeng and the others returned to the city lord's palace faster than them.
Looking at the three people who were immaculately dressed, Xiang Zhen hesitated for a moment and then asked: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, could it be that the shopkeeper of Xianglou didn't give you face that day?"
"In that case, why not let me go in person!"
Xiang Zhen thought about it again and again, and still felt that Zhang Yifeng and the others had returned so quickly because they had not achieved anything in Tianxiang Tower.
As the lord of Beihai City, he felt that if he went to use his power to overwhelm others, he would be able to make the shopkeeper of Tianxiang Tower obediently obey his orders.
"No need, City Lord Xiang, I have already captured the guy who secretly controls these bandit cultivators."
"But you came back a little late, and that man has been beaten to a pulp."
Zhang Yifeng spoke quietly and told Xiang Zhen what happened while he was away.
When Xiang Zhen heard that the person who controlled the bandit cultivators was actually Gu Huang, the general manager who had been in charge of internal affairs in his house, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.
"What? No wonder the people I secretly sent to investigate died so easily in the hands of those bandit cultivators!"
Xiang Zhen gritted his teeth and shouted, his eyes flashing with resentment.
In the entire city lord's palace, the person Xiang Zhen trusted the most was the general manager Guhuang.
When he was in danger, Guhuang saved his life regardless of his own life.
Therefore, in the entire city lord's palace, Xiang Zhen would not hide anything from Guhuang, no matter how big or small.
You will even tell the other party many secrets and discuss countermeasures with them in private.
Xiang Zhen thought about it day and night, and he probably wouldn't have thought that Guhuang was actually the person secretly controlling the chaos in Beihai City.
"Fortunately, fellow Taoist Zhang helped me, otherwise I would have died at the hands of this traitor sooner or later!"
"It's a pity that I can't kill this traitor myself, but at least Beihai City is now completely stable."
Xiang Zhen said through gritted teeth.
"No, City Lord Xiang may have misunderstood. This ancient wasteland can only be regarded as a small fish at best."
"There is another person who really disturbed Beihai City, but he is probably not in Beihai City at the moment."
Zhang Yifeng shook his head, and then expressed his analysis of the current situation.
After hearing what Zhang Yifeng said, beads of sweat gradually rolled down Xiang Zhen's forehead.
"Nian, Young Supreme? Can such a being also keep an eye on the treasury of God?"
Xiang Zhen lowered his head and said in a solemn voice.
It seems that he still underestimates the temptation of Emperor Ku for those who are interested.
"Now that the chaos in Beihai City has been settled, since the young Supreme behind the scenes is not in Beihai City and will not come for a while, City Lord Xiang can rest assured."
"But before setting off to find the emperor's treasury, I have something I want to ask City Lord Xiang alone."
Zhang Yifeng smiled and cupped his hands at Xiang Zhen and said.
"Fellow Daoist Zhang, there is no need to be polite. Your arrival not only solved my crisis, but also helped Beihai City avoid a disaster."
"No matter what Taoist friend Zhang wants to ask, I will definitely tell you everything!"
Xiang Zhen looked serious when he heard what Zhang Yifeng said and replied seriously.
Zhang Yifeng nodded in response, and then led Xiang Zhen into the living room behind him.
Xuanyuan Li didn't know what Zhang Yifeng wanted to talk to Xiang Zhen, but he didn't follow him into the living room.
Instead, he grabbed Ji Dali, who wanted to walk into it together.
In the living room, Zhang Yifeng raised his hand to raise the barrier, blocking out any possibility of eavesdropping on the conversation between the two.
"City Lord Xiang, you should know that in addition to possessing the treasure key to the Imperial Treasury, the Lei family also holds the road map to the Imperial Treasury, right?"
Zhang Yifeng stared at Xiang Zhen and asked quietly.
"Where did fellow Daoist Zhang learn about this?"
Xiang Zhen swallowed and looked at Zhang Yifeng in shock.
"Of course, the head of the Lei family and his wife told me about this. Not only that, they also gave me this picture."
As Zhang Yifeng smiled, the road map appeared in his palm.
"It seems that he has recognized Zhang Daoyou's benevolent heart. In this case, there is no need for me to hide anything."
"If you have anything to ask about this emperor's treasury, fellow Daoist Zhang, just ask."
After staring at the route map in Zhang Yifeng's hand for a long time, Xiang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that Lord Xiang knows more than I thought."
"Then I won't go into details. I would like to ask City Lord Xiang if he can tell you the origin of this imperial treasury?"
Zhang Yifeng's eyes flashed when he heard this, and he knew that he had not guessed wrong.
Xiang Zhen hides far more secrets than he imagined.
"The origin of this emperor's treasury seems to be quite old. Fellow Taoist, please listen carefully."
