Chapter 1256 The City Lord’s Troubles

However, he personally promised Wu Ji that he would return to the Eternal Life Palace after three months to help her deal with the people in the Silver Dragon Palace, so Ye Feng had to jump even though he knew it was a big hole. Situ Reading

М

He doesn't want to be someone who breaks his promise.

"I have a good idea about this matter. City Lord, please rest assured that I will never implicate the City Lord's Mansion." Ye Feng held up his hand with a determined expression.

The worst possible thing is to walk away. When Shenwu becomes great, he will always have his own place.

He has made no contribution to Starlight City. By doing this, the Lord of Starlight City has taken good care of him. Ye Feng does not want to become a burden to the City Lord's Mansion.

Hearing this, the fatigue on Star City Lord's face became a little heavier, and he sighed: "Ye Feng, it's not that I don't want to keep you, it's just that the City Lord's Mansion... is currently in a precarious situation, so if I force you to stay, I'm afraid you will have to stay. You've been delayed."

"Huh? Lord City Lord...what do you mean by this?"

Surprised, Ye Feng asked hurriedly.

The City Lord's Mansion is the spokesperson for the Tianning County royal family to govern Starlight City. Even if the three factions of Extreme Fire Castle are stronger than the City Lord's Mansion, they will never dare to do anything to the City Lord's Mansion.

"Hey... It's also my fault that I have a stubborn temper. I have never bothered to curry favor with the powerful people in the city. I only relied on my own methods to get to the position of city lord. However, due to the limitations of my martial arts talent, my martial arts journey in this life may come to a halt. In the semi-holy realm.”

"Ning Shentong of Jihuo Castle has always coveted the position of city lord in the past. It's just that his cultivation level is slightly inferior to that of me, so he has to hold it back."

Speaking of this, the Star City Lord showed a bit of bitterness on his face, and his eyes showed regret, "When the three parties attacked the White Tiger Gate, I was trapped by something and could not stop it in time, otherwise... I have the White Tiger in my starlight. The city checks and balances the three factions, but they can't make too big a splash, it's a pity..."

"The Lord of the City acted openly and aboveboard, so there is no need to blame himself." Ye Feng comforted him.

"That's what I said, but now the White Tiger Gate has been wiped out by the three factions, and Bai Hucheng's whereabouts are unknown. The three factions no longer have much fear in our city lord's mansion. I received the news that Ning Shentong met with a high-ranking official in the city this time With the relationship, as long as the time is right, it is very possible to covet the position of city lord. "

"Then the three factions will join forces, and there will be an order to go to the city. Before I can react, the Lord of Starlight City will be replaced..."

Star City Lord's voice was a little tired as he continued speaking sentence by sentence. Although he had one or two supporters in the upper city, he was in the open and the other party was in the dark. No one knew when the three factions of Extreme Fire Castle would take over, so they were naturally at a disadvantage.

The embarrassing thing is that Yixing City Lord's strength is currently unable to defeat the three factions.

Like a wake-up call, Ye Feng suddenly understood. No wonder Mo Gaokun dared to say, "The city lord is not incapable of changing people." There was something hidden inside, and I'm afraid he already knew it.

It is even possible that Ding Mo knew the conspiracy of the three factions.

After thinking about this, Ye Feng pondered for a moment and then slowly told the Lord of Star City all the information he heard from Mo Gaokun and others.

Bang!

The more he listened, the uglier the Star City Lord's face became. Suddenly, the tea cup in his hand burst into pieces. The tea evaporated into a burst of light steam, and a wild and powerful momentum burst out from his thin body. .

Ye Feng was startled and quickly took a few steps back before he could steady himself.

"I see!"

"Hmph... It turns out that they can no longer hold back and have secretly launched an offensive? To bribe the stewards of my city lord's mansion? Humph, they have made a good plan."

Suddenly, the slightly tired old man disappeared, and the person standing in front of Ye Feng once again became the aloof Starlight City Lord, majestic and inviolable.

Light flashed in his eyes, and after a moment, the Lord of Star City pressed his palm on the table and said coldly: "Ye Feng, you don't have to leave, just let the Shui Tribe come in force. I want to see, even if you marry the Shui Tribe, in Starlight City, Who can make big waves?"

"I would like to take this opportunity to see in the entire Starlight City who is of the same mind as me and who is working against me and causing trouble secretly..."

this……

The Star City Lord wanted to take advantage of the opportunity and put on a big show. It was obvious that the small tricks secretly made by the three factions had completely ignited the anger that the Star City Lord had accumulated over the years.

A semi-holy realm.

This is a tiger that has been sleeping for many years. Once it wakes up, no one knows what will happen.

"I'll... just accompany the Lord of the City to sing this play..."

Ye Feng happily agreed, and then turned to remind: "Na Ding Mo, City Lord, you must pay special attention."

"Eating everything inside and outside... let him live first, and when the big thing comes up, I will settle the old accounts with him properly!"

The Lord of Star City, who had regained some of his composure, had resentment in his eyes. After raising and cultivating Ding Mo for so many years, all he got was repaying kindness with hatred, which would make anyone extremely angry.

However, we can't attack Ding Mo at the moment, lest he startle the enemy.

"Okay, you go down first... I have some things to deal with these days, so I don't have time to pay too much attention to you."

"Ye Feng, be careful yourself." Star City Lord frowned, looking a little irritable.

Ye Feng, who had cupped his hands, did not immediately turn around and leave. Instead, he tentatively asked in a low voice: "What kind of trouble has the city lord encountered? I wonder if I can help the city lord solve his worries?"

In Ye Feng's impression, the Lord of Star City always had the attitude of a master who did not change his face even when the mountains collapsed before his eyes. He was rarely like this today.

The anger just now was certainly related to the betrayal of the three factions and Ding Mo, but the sadness hanging on his eyebrows seemed to be another trouble.

Star City Lord was silent and wanted to speak, but then he sighed again.

Even a half-saint strong man like himself is helpless in this matter. What else can a mere little warrior in the virtual realm come up with?

"Forget it, you should go down and practice with concentration. You can't help with this matter..."

"If the City Lord can trust me, you might as well say it." Ye Feng did not give up. This was not because he wanted to show off deliberately, but because he had received too many favors from the Lord of Star City, and he just wanted to try his best to repay him.

Seeing Ye Feng's persistent look, Star City Lord gave a wry smile and then helplessly replied: "There are some problems with the guardian beast of my City Lord's Mansion. I'm afraid... he will die."

"Guardian beast? What level of strange beast is this? Is there such a thing?"

Ye Feng was slightly startled, and his heart suddenly became interested.

Before this, I had never heard of any guardian beast.

"A hundred years ago, by chance, I subdued a Star-Moon Beast in an ancient secret realm. Because I had some connection with it, I brought it back to the City Lord's Mansion to care for it. Later... it became the guardian beast of this city. "

"The Star-Moon Beast will transform every once in a while, just like the Phoenix Nirvana. It will become more powerful after each transformation. Of course, because of this, this process is also a matter of narrow escape. If you can't survive it, you will die... "

Following the Star City Lord's words, Ye Feng wondered: "Could it be that... it just so happens that the day when the Star-Moon Beast transforms has happened recently?"

"Yes, it has been going on for several days...Hey, I'm afraid I won't be able to survive this time."

The face of Star City Lord was full of reluctance. After spending hundreds of years together, Xingyue Beast had become a close friend in his long life.

Ye Feng secretly muttered that monsters are always just monsters. Even if they have developed some intelligence, it would be a pity to die, but since they are guardian beasts, they should be able to find other replacements. Why should the Lord of Star City be worried like this?
