Chapter 5790 Request

"After all, what we need to deal with now is not King Jiuyuan, but the guy who is nearby."

Zhang Yifeng said this calmly, and then he heard hurried footsteps coming from outside the room.

Emperor Sun immediately swallowed the words he was about to ask, then waved his hand to open the door.

"You two, City Lord Yehou wants to see you."

The person standing outside was a servant from the City Lord's Mansion, who was bowing and speaking to Zhang Yifeng and the others with a terrified expression.

"City Lord Yehou just left not long ago, and he wants to see us again?"

Zhang Yifeng raised his eyebrows and asked. The emperor's grandson beside him also looked around, thinking that the little action of the two was discovered by Ye Hou.

"I don't know why the city lord asked you two to come, but it seems to be a very important matter."

The servant replied nervously, although he did not know the identities of Zhang Yifeng and the other two.

But the city lord looked very anxious at the time and asked him to invite these two people over.

The Lord of Yehou City was already the most powerful person he had ever seen except for the king, but he still had to be so cautious when facing these two strange guests.

"Okay, then I'll trouble you to lead the way and lead us to meet the Lord of Yehou City."

Looking at the servant with cold sweat on his forehead, Zhang Yifeng pondered for a while, then raised his hand to signal him to lead the way.

Upon hearing this, the servant hurriedly stood up and quickly led Zhang Yifeng and the other man to the reception room of the City Lord's Mansion where Ye Hou was.

After the servant sent the two here, he told them that Ye Hou was waiting in the reception room and then turned around and left.

For a servant like him, it was already a great honor to be sent by Ye Hou to inform Zhang Yifeng and the others.

It would be a fantasy to think of meeting Ye Hou in person again.

Zhang Yifeng pushed open the door of the reception room and saw Ye Hou standing in the middle of the room with a troubled look on his face.

Noticing the arrival of Zhang Yifeng and the other two, the distressed look on Ye Hou's face immediately disappeared.

"You two are finally here!"

Ye Hou pursed his lips, but still chose to come forward.

Zhang Yifeng noticed that there was still some worry in his eyes, but he seemed to feel that he had to invite the two of them, and he was already deeply conflicted.

"Lord Yehou, is there anything important you need to discuss?"

Zhang Yifeng groaned for a moment, then spoke frankly.

"Your Excellency has finally figured it out. There is indeed an important matter that requires your help."

"It's just that your origins are unknown, and you haven't joined the king's army yet..."

Ye Hou said this awkwardly, and it was obvious that he was concerned about the identities of Zhang Yifeng and the other man.

But in this situation, he needs their help.

"So that's how it is. Lord Yehou, you can rest assured. The two of us will definitely help you with all our strength."

"But what exactly happened that required Lord Yehou to invite us over to discuss it?"

Zhang Yifeng asked with his eyes fixed. He already had some understanding of Ye Hou's strength, which was definitely at the level of Half-Step Immortal Lord.

As long as he is given some time to concentrate on his cultivation, he will be able to successfully break through to the Immortal Lord realm.

This kind of strength is probably the one that has the final say in the entire Four Emperors Abyss. How could he possibly encounter any trouble?

"Alas, you two don't know that there were suddenly many powerful energy fluctuations around the Four Imperial Cities."

"Moreover, these energy fluctuations come from the forces that are rebelling against the king."

"Although I sent Wuxing to suppress it, his body was soon sent back."

"The other party also threatened to take action during the King's ceremony in three days and directly destroy the Four Imperial Cities."

Ye Hou replied in a deep voice that this was the reason why he invited Zhang Yifeng and the others.

The opponent's strength is extremely strong. Although Ye Hou is ready to kill one of them, he still needs manpower to deal with the others.

Wuxing was the strongest general under his command, but he was still defeated by the opponent.

In this huge Siyu City, the only helpers Ye Hou could think of were Zhang Yifeng and the emperor's grandson.

"City Lord Yehou, just tell me the enemy's location and I will go and deal with it."

Zhang Yifeng pondered for a moment and directly accepted Ye Hou’s request for help.

Seeing that Zhang Yifeng agreed so readily, Ye Hou's eyes flashed with surprise.

"Thank you both for your hard work."

Ye Hou did not refuse, he really needed the help of Zhang Yifeng and the others.

As for whether Zhang Yifeng and the other two are truly serving the king, it is no longer important at this time.

Now is the moment of life and death for Siyu City, and Ye Hou does not want the king to see only ruins when he returns.

After learning the location of the troublemaker from Ye Hou, Zhang Yifeng rushed there with the emperor's grandson.

"God of Killing, what are you planning? We haven't even gained any profit, and now you want to help Ye Hou to deal with others?"

In mid-air, after Emperor Sun could no longer sense Ye Hou's breath, he asked Zhang Yifeng in a deep voice.

Emperor Sun's tone was a little unfriendly, but thinking that Zhang Yifeng might have some plans, he suppressed a lot of his anger.

"Fellow Daoist Emperor Sun, since we want to profit from the Nine Abyss King, we naturally have to gain his trust first."

"Now that we have nothing to prove, how can we make him trust us and let down his guard against us?"

"This is undoubtedly a good opportunity. As long as we can capture this troublemaker, King Jiuyuan will definitely treat us differently when he returns."

Zhang Yifeng replied calmly that they were like endless duckweed floating in the wind in this Siyu City.

Not to mention gaining enough benefits, even if he temporarily joined King Jiuyuan, he would not gain his trust.

If they want to continue the operation to rescue Zi Yuan and get more secrets about the Four Emperors' Abyss from him, they must gain greater trust from King Jiuyuan.

Listening to Zhang Yifeng's explanation, the depression in Emperor Sun's heart gradually dissipated.

The emperor's grandson has been at the top since he was born. He is definitely not as good as Zhang Yifeng in these matters, who has worked hard all the way to become proficient today.

However, he was not stupid and he immediately understood the key point of Zhang Yifeng's words.

That is, they must first gain a foothold in the Four Imperial Cities before they can proceed to the next step.

The emperor's grandson, who had finally gotten rid of his anger, willingly followed Zhang Yifeng and headed towards the destination.

This is a barren mountain area hundreds of miles away from Siyu City.

According to Ye Hou, originally this was just a gathering place for a group of ghost soldiers, and their leader was only at the level of a ghost general.

As he had been busy preparing for the grand ceremony in recent days, Ye Hou had no time to deal with them.

As a result, a mysterious strong man came today and subdued the evil soldiers here, and raised the banner of resistance against King Jiuyuan.

Zhang Yifeng and the other person hovered above the barren mountain. After concealing their breath, they lowered their heads and looked down at the situation below.

I saw dozens of strange-looking ghost soldiers lined up on the hill, led by a zombie wearing tattered armor.

The Yin energy on his body is slightly stronger, so he should be the Yin general that Ye Hou mentioned.
