Chapter 5783 Night Marquis

Black smoke rose from a tall building in the center of the city, and then headed straight towards Zhang Yifeng and Emperor Sun.

Looking at the incoming black smoke, Zhang Yifeng's eyes moved slightly, but he did not rush to take action.

On the contrary, the emperor's grandson was already prepared for the battle, with a powerful pressure rising from his body.

Because the emperor's grandson's resistance was too obvious, the black smoke did not approach them, but stopped hundreds of meters away.

Then the black smoke gradually shrank and gathered into a human shape, and a young man in black appeared in front of the two.

The young man's face was pale and his whole body was filled with a strong aura of death.

And even though he was a hundred meters away, Zhang Yifeng could still smell a strange smell on him.

"May I ask why you suddenly block my way?"

Zhang Yifeng raised his hand to signal the emperor's grandson to calm down, and then took the initiative to ask the young man.

"Heh, since you two guests have come to present gifts to the king, don't you even recognize me?"

"I am Ye Hou, and I am the mayor of Siyu City for the king."

Ye Hou chuckled, his eyes fell on the emperor's grandson intentionally or unintentionally, and a look of fear flashed in his eyes.

The pressure he had just felt from this man seemed to be able to crush him to death in an instant.

Obviously, he had completely lost the battle of momentum.

However, as the Night Marquis of Siyu City, he could not admit to his defeat in person.

"It turned out to be Ye Hou in person, but the two of us have always lived in seclusion and immersed ourselves in cultivation, so we are not clear about the current situation in the Four Emperors Abyss."

"Before, I just received the message from King Jiuyuan that went through the heaven and earth, so I came out of retreat to see you."

Zhang Yifeng answered with a smile, and this answer also made Ye Hou's expression in front of him change slightly, and the vigilance in his eyes was slightly reduced.

"Well... since you are a recluse, why do you want to attend the king's ceremony?"

Ye Hou narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice.

Zhang Yifeng's eyes moved when he heard the voice, knowing that this answer would determine this person's attitude towards them.

"After years of seclusion, we both felt we had almost reached the end of our rope, but we wanted to go one step further."

"Therefore, joining King Jiuyuan is a good opportunity for us!"

Zhang Yifeng raised his head and replied, his tone full of confidence, as if they had already placed their lifelong opportunities on this one choice.

"Hahaha, what great ambition!"

"It would be a blessing if you two could really join the king's army!"

When Ye Hou heard this answer, the suspicion in his eyes completely disappeared and he immediately laughed and said.

After sensing that the pressure from the emperor's grandson had completely disappeared, Ye Hou also walked forward.

However, after Ye Hou approached, Zhang Yifeng felt that there was something strange about this person's aura, and there was even a faint smell of corpse.

"The aura of Lord Yehou?"

Zhang Yifeng spoke calmly and asked in a flat tone.

"Oh, you two don't know that I am different from those people under the king who rely on their talents to get things done."

"I have broken through to my current level as a low-ranking ghost soldier, and the king admires me for this, and is willing to let me take care of the Four Imperial Cities."

Seeing that Zhang Yifeng was aware of his origin, Ye Hou explained with a proud look on his face.

The Abyss of the Four Emperors was originally an ordinary small world, but the negative energy left by the fall of the Four Emperors infected the entire world.

All the living things in the entire small world were transformed into dead objects, and then regained consciousness under the influence of Yin energy.

However, at this time they had already forgotten their past and had completely turned into dead ghosts.

Some of them are extremely talented, while others can only start as low-level ghost soldiers.

The group of fish monsters that Zhang Yifeng and Emperor Sun encountered before were actually a group of low-level ghost soldiers who could only live under the riverbed by the roadside.

There are clear levels in the Abyss of the Four Emperors, and there are very few people like Ye Hou who can reach his current position from a low-level ghost soldier.

Therefore, he was very proud of his origin.

Under the leadership of Ye Hou, Zhang Yifeng and the emperor's grandson came to the tallest building in Siyu City.

"This is the City Lord's Mansion, but the King has important matters to attend to these days and is not in the city for the time being."

"I'm afraid the city lord won't come back until the ceremony starts in three days. I will explain the situation to him then."

After Ye Hou arranged accommodation for Zhang Yifeng and the others, he informed them that King Jiuyuan was not in the city.

Zhang Yifeng groaned when he heard this, but did not react much.

After all, King Jiuyuan will come back sooner or later, and before he comes back, Zhang Yifeng can also explore the City Lord's Mansion.

After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, the vitality that was sensed before became more obvious. It was obvious that Zi Xuan's father might be hiding in this City Lord's Mansion.

"Okay, I'll trouble Lord Ye Hou then."

"The two of us will rest in Siyu City first. If you have any difficult problems, Lord Yehou can come to us."

Zhang Yifeng smiled faintly and watched Ye Hou leave.

However, in his perception, even if there was no one around the room, he could still feel many secret surveillance eyes.

Obviously, even with what he said before, Ye Hou did not completely believe the two of them.

Zhang Yifeng and the emperor's grandson sat opposite each other at the table in the room, seemingly sipping tea but actually communicating with each other through voice.

"Fellow Daoist Emperor Sun, I'll trouble you to make some noise in the city to attract the attention of those who are secretly watching us."

Zhang Yifeng put down the teacup and spoke to Emperor Sun.

"Humph, why don't you go and make some noise while I go find someone?"

The emperor's grandson snorted coldly and replied dissatisfiedly.

"If Daoist Fellow Emperor Sun can guarantee that he will handle the situation calmly after finding the person, then Daoist Fellow can naturally do this."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yifeng simply replied nonchalantly, and at the same time took a deep look at the emperor's grandson.

The emperor's grandson's face twitched slightly when he heard this, but he still lowered his head and said nothing more.

Although the cooperation with Zhang Yifeng has been going smoothly so far, the two are indeed very incompatible in some aspects.

What made Emperor's grandson most uncomfortable was that Zhang Yifeng knew him too well.

Even the Human Emperor did not know him as well as Zhang Yifeng did, and this made the Emperor's grandson feel extremely unhappy.

But under the current circumstances, he had no choice but to follow Zhang Yifeng's arrangements.

Putting down the teacup casually, Emperor Sun stood up with a cold face and walked out of the room, leaving the City Lord's Mansion of Siyu City.

Sure enough, with the departure of the Emperor's grandson, the surveillance force within Zhang Yifeng's perception range was reduced by half.

However, Zhang Yifeng did not rush to act and continued to sit in the room sipping tea.

On the other side, the emperor's grandson left the city lord's mansion, grabbed someone to ask for directions, and went straight to the gambling house in the city.

Even though they are dead, the nature of these Yin objects is still there, and their daily activities in the city are no different from those of living people.

Whether it is a gambling house or an inn or a restaurant, there is everything you need.
