"Who do you want to suppress?"
Right at this moment, an icy cold voice sounded out out of thin air.
Nearby, a middle aged man was walking over with a cold expression, bright eyes, and a trace of dignity between his brows.
"City Governor!"
All the guards of Dragon Lake City hurriedly bowed when they saw this person.
"Father!"
Xu Xiaotian had a delighted expression when he saw this person, and he called out.
Dragon Lake City's Governor, Xu Shi!
Su Zimo's gaze moved around Xu Shi and Liu Tong as he compared them in his heart.
Even though both of them were ninth level Mysterious Immortals, Xu Shi's imposing aura obviously suppressed Liu Tong!
Liu Tong seemed to be unable to match Xu Shi's gaze, and he lowered his head slightly while concealing his gloomy expression as he cupped his hands and said, "I was anxious for a moment and wanted to kill the villain, so my words were slightly intense. I hope City Governor can forgive me. “
Xu Xiaotian's pitch black eyes spun as he hurriedly sent a voice transmission to Xu Shi. "Father, he's Su Zimo, the person that saved me in the abyss all those years ago."
Xu Shi's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't even spare a glance at Su Zimo, and he only looked at Liu Tong as he asked. "Commander Liu, who's the villain you spoke of?"
"It's him!"
Liu Tong stretched out his hand and pointed at Su Zimo as he said with a low voice, "Even though I have some personal enmity with this person, I won't use my position to avenge a personal grudge. But Just Now, this person has killed the guards of the City Governor's Estate, and I saw it with my own two eyes! "
The nearby guards nodded and chimed in. "We saw it as well."
Xu Shi glanced at the fallen corpse and didn't say anything, and he still had an expressionless face.
"Little Tian Just Now said that this person saved him before. But even then, this person still can't escape the death penalty for killing someone within the City Governor's Estate! "
Liu Tong's expression was furious as he said loudly, "Killing an Immortal Soldier of my Darjin Empire is provoking the dignity of the Darjin Empire, and it's an unforgivable crime!"
"Exactly!"
"Alright, it should be like this!"
Liu Tong's words were spoken resolutely and powerfully, and it instantly drew the agreement of many Dragon Lake City guards.
Liu Tong's eyes flashed with an imperceptible smugness. He cupped his hands again and looked at Xu Shi meaningfully. He smiled and asked, "This is no small matter. I believe that the City Lord will not be biased, right?"
Su Zimo frowned.
Although Liu Tong's last sentence was respectful, it seemed to be overstepping his boundaries and even revealed a trace of aggressiveness!
Xu Shi was still expressionless. No one could tell if he was happy or angry.
Su Zimo's gaze lingered on Xu Shi and Liu Tong, deep in thought.
The City Lord's Mansion fell into silence, and the atmosphere became somewhat oppressive.
Su Zimo, on the other hand, looked relaxed, as if the matter in front of him had nothing to do with him.
"Father, I believe there must be some misunderstanding."
Xu Xiaotian said anxiously when he saw that the situation was not right.
"Is there a misunderstanding?"
Xu Shi finally opened his mouth and asked.
"This …"
Xu Xiaotian was speechless.
Xu Shi's gaze turned to look at the nearby Su Zimo and said slowly, "If you killed my soldiers for no reason, then you indeed deserve death!"
Su Zimo's heart moved as he heard the meaning behind Xu Shi's words. He cupped his fists and said, "I was truly forced to injure them."
Subsequently, Su Zimo recounted the scene that happened Just Now.
These were all facts, and he had no need to conceal them.
Liu Tong frowned deeply when he heard.
"Father, look, I told you I don't blame Big Brother Su!"
Xu Xiaotian said with a smile.
After he finished speaking, he even specially raised his leg and kicked the tall and thin guard's corpse and berated, "You've really lost face for our Dragon Lake City and lost face for the Dajin Empire!"
Liu Tong naturally refused to give up and said in a low voice, "So what if the soldiers of my Dajin Empire seized his Origin Spirit Stones? They don't deserve death! He's only a lowly servant … "
"Hmm?"
Xu Shi's gaze swept over as his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in an icy cold tone, "Commander Liu, I also ascended from the lower dimensions. Could it be that I'm also a lowly servant in your eyes? "
"This subordinate dares not."
Liu Tong lowered his head slightly and said.
Although he said he didn't dare, his expression didn't have the slightest bit of fear, and it was instead slightly disdainful.
Su Zimo looked at this scene and pondered.
Although the confrontation between Xu Shi and Liu Tong was short, it revealed a lot of information.
The City Lord of Dragon Lake City was also someone that ascended from the lower dimensions.
And Liu Tong obviously knew this. Just Now, although what he said was targeted at Su Zimo, it was more likely to be scolding him indirectly!
Xu Shi heard it, and that was why he retaliated.
But the strange thing was that Xu Shi didn't really punish Liu Tong for his repeated offense.
Su Zimo vaguely felt that after Liu Tong advanced to the ninth stage of the Mystic Immortal Realm, it was extremely likely that he would challenge Xu Shi for the position of City Lord!
Perhaps the two of them already had a tacit understanding and were secretly wrestling with each other.
But because of the incident today and his unintentional intrusion, a head-on conflict had arisen between the two of them.
Xu Shi looked around the surroundings and said slowly, "As a soldier of my Dajin Immortal Kingdom, you actually openly seized the Origin Spirit Stones of another in Dragon Lake City. How is your actions different from those bandits outside!?"
"If I knew about this, I would personally kill him as a warning to others!"
These words were spoken extremely heavily, and the meaning behind his words was that the tall and thin guard deserved death.
"Disperse."
Xu Shi lightly waved his hand before turning around and leaving.
Xu Xiaotian secretly tugged on Su Zimo's sleeve and sent a voice transmission. "Big Brother Su, follow me."
As he spoke, Xu Xiaotian brought along Su Zimo and chased after Xu Shi.
Liu Tong's expression was gloomy, and he didn't speak a single word.
The few hundred guards in the surroundings glanced at each other and didn't stop Xu Xiaotian.
These guards were able to sense the subtle changes that had occurred between Liu Tong and Xu Shi.
But no matter what, the current City Lord was still Xu Shi!
No one was an idiot and wouldn't be the first to stand out.
Liu Tong could only watch on helplessly as Su Zimo gradually walked further and further away before vanishing from his line of sight.
But in next to no time, Liu Tong seemed to have thought of something and laughed coldly.
On the other side.
Su Zimo and Xu Xiaotian followed behind Xu Shi and conversed in low voices.
Not long after, a large hall appeared before them. It was piled up with limestone, and it was dignified and solemn.
Xu Shi directly walked in and sat on the City Lord's seat at the center of the hall before looking down at Su Zimo who had entered the hall.
Just Now, Xu Shi had appeared and didn't even look Su Zimo in the eye.
Only now did he start to carefully examine Su Zimo. His gaze was slightly frightening as if he wanted to clearly see through the latter!
Xu Shi stared at Su Zimo for a long time and noticed that even with his experience and experience, he was completely unable to see through this seemingly weak scholar before him.
The more it was like this, the more suspicious he was!
In these past few years, a genius had appeared on Dragon Lake Star and he'd naturally heard of it.
Moreover, this person had even saved Little Tian before. Could there be some conspiracy behind this?
What secrets does this person have?
Does this person have any other intentions?
If he didn't have this cautiousness, Xu Shi would have died countless times and it would be impossible for him to stand out from the numerous people that ascended from the lower dimensions and ascend to the position of City Lord of Dragon Lake City step by step.
Even though he was the City Lord of a remote star, but with the identity of ascending from the lower dimensions, there probably wasn't a second person in the entire Azure Cloud County or even the Dajin Immortal Kingdom that could reach this position! ()
