Xu Xiaotian asked, "How long will it take to repair this formation?"
"Don't worry, little young master. I'll definitely be able to repair the teleportation formation within half a year."
Bodyguard Cui swore solemnly.
"That long?"
Xu Xiaotian frowned.
He knew nothing about the Dao of Array Formations and could not be of much help.
Su Zimo looked at the green stone for a while before turning around. He looked at Bodyguard Cui and said indifferently, "20 days is enough to repair this green stone."
Actually, Su Zimo's figure was a little conservative.
He did not know much about the formation patterns of teleportation formations.
If he knew the formation patterns of teleportation formations like the back of his hand, he would be able to repair this green stone within 10 days!
"You …"
Bodyguard Cui blushed and straightened his neck, wanting to argue. However, he felt guilty after Su Zimo's gaze and said weakly, "Do you know anything about formations?"
"A little."
Su Zimo's gaze was bright as he said resolutely, "Give me 20 days and I'll be able to repair the formation patterns of this teleportation formation!"
Xu Xiaotian glared at Bodyguard Cui and shouted, "How dare you lie to me!"
Bodyguard Cui was sweating profusely and looked flustered as he explained hurriedly, "Don't be angry, little young master. The half a year I said was just in case. Under normal circumstances, it won't take half a year. "
"Don't worry, little young master. I'll definitely do my best to repair the teleportation formation within 20 days."
Xu Xiaotian said in a deep voice, "If the teleportation formation can't be activated after 20 days, you'll be guilty of dereliction of duty!"
"Yes, yes."
Bodyguard Cui bowed and nodded repeatedly.
"Brother Su, let's go."
Xu Xiaotian called out.
Su Zimo stood motionless, deep in thought.
Xu Xiaotian thought that Su Zimo was a little disappointed and consoled, "Brother Su, don't worry. I'll prepare a room for you. You can settle down first. It's only 20 days and it'll pass in the blink of an eye."
"There's no need."
Su Zimo suddenly waved his hand and said, "I'll stand guard here."
Xu Xiaotian was stunned for a moment and quickly understood. He asked, "Big Brother Su, are you worried that Liu Tong will come back and destroy the teleportation array again?"
Su Zimo shook his head and did not explain.
What Xu Xiaotian said was only one of the reasons.
Su Zimo was thinking about something else.
Liu Tong's move to destroy the teleportation formation was not a brilliant move. It could not even be considered a scheme. At most, it could only delay him for twenty days.
What was Liu Tong trying to do?
Could it be that he just wanted to vent his anger?
Su Zimo was a little worried that something else would happen in the next twenty days.
Of course, it would be best if he didn't.
If he stayed here, he could use this opportunity to learn how to control the teleportation formation's runes.
In the future, even if no one helped him, he would be able to activate the Teleportation Formations in the major cities by himself.
"Big Brother Su, I'll accompany you."
Xu Xiaotian patted his chest and said righteously.
Guard Cui cried out bitterly at the side.
He did not dare to slack off under Xu Xiaotian's watch and could only repair the teleportation formation with all his might.
Su Zimo also started to learn the teleportation formation's runes.
The teleportation formation was considered a relatively common formation in the upper realm.
With his comprehension of formations, it was not difficult for him to comprehend and control these formation runes.
Time passed bit by bit. In the next few days, the City Lord's Mansion and Dragon Lake City were the same as usual. There was nothing unusual.
Liu Tong did not appear again.
In the blink of an eye, ten days had passed and the teleportation formation entered the end of its repair.
On this day.
The City Lord, Xu Shi, appeared and called Su Zimo and Xu Xiaotian over. He said, "Liu Tong sent an invitation. He's holding a banquet in his mansion today and invited the various commanders and us to go over."
"Alright, I'll go ask him why he destroyed the teleportation formation!"
Xu Xiaotian was still indignant when he thought of this.
"Xiaotian!"
Xu Shi frowned slightly and said, "Don't mention this again."
Xu Xiaotian puckered his lips and didn't say another word.
Su Zimo pondered for a moment before declining. "City Lord, I have some enmity with Liu Tong, and I'm not familiar with the other commanders, so I won't go."
"It's precisely because of this that you should attend the banquet."
Xu Shi said, "Liu Tong held the banquet today with the intention of easing the tension between the two of you. It's best that you don't form any enmity with him."
Su Zimo's expression was calm, and he disapproved in his heart.
Once the teleportation formation was repaired, he would leave Dragon Lake Star. So what if he formed enmity with Liu Tong!
In all fairness, Su Zimo really didn't take Liu Tong seriously.
Xu Shi seemed to have seen through Su Zimo's thoughts and shook his head lightly. "Liu Tong has a Senior Brother in Azurecloud County, and I heard he's an Earthly Immortal Realm expert."
Su Zimo's brows raised slightly.
Xu Shi said, "I can only warn you up to here."
Su Zimo gradually came to an understanding.
Before this, Xu Shi had always been patient with Liu Tong, and what he was worried about was probably this Senior Brother of Liu Tong!
Xu Shi was reminding Su Zimo out of good intentions that there was no need to become enemies with Liu Tong and offend an Earthly Immortal Realm expert.
Su Zimo was silent for a moment before he said, "City Lord, forgive me for being presumptuous, but Liu Tong is already a Ninth Stage Mystic Immortal. Aren't you worried that he'll join forces with that Earthly Immortal Realm expert to replace you?"
These words were already slightly overboard.
If Xu Shi turned hostile on the spot and accused Su Zimo of sowing discord, it wasn't impossible.
However, as far as Su Zimo was concerned, the timing of the banquet Liu Tong held today was a little coincidental, and it probably wouldn't be a good banquet!
"Hahahaha!"
Xu Shi roared with laughter and said, "You're worrying too much. I'm the City Lord appointed by the County Governor of Azurecloud County. If Liu Tong dares to join forces with outsiders to make a move against me, he'll be besieged by the Azurecloud County! "
"Not to mention Earthly Immortals, even Heavenly Immortals and sects can't offend the dignity of the Azurecloud County!"
Xu Xiaotian asked with slight worry, "Then Liu Tong won't make a move against Big Brother Su during the banquet, right?"
"Don't worry."
Xu Shi said, "With me around, I can guarantee Su Zimo's safety! “
Su Zimo pondered for a moment and didn't refuse anymore.
The three of them left the City Lord's Estate and quickly arrived at Liu Tong's Estate.
Xu Shi was rather familiar with this Governor's Estate. He walked along the stone path and arrived before a large hall before long.
The large hall was slightly empty.
There was only one person sitting in the middle, and it was Liu Tong.
Xu Shi narrowed his eyes slightly.
Something was wrong!
The surroundings of this large hall seemed to be too quiet, and there weren't even any attendants or maidservants.
Moreover, this banquet would normally invite all the Governors of Dragon Lake City. But now, there were only the three of them.
"Could it be that Liu Tong really has ill intentions?"
Xu Shi frowned secretly.
Ever since Liu Tong advanced to a Ninth Stage Mystic Immortal, the relationship between the two of them had undergone a subtle change.
However, the two of them had always maintained restraint and didn't shed all pretenses of cordiality.
He was the City Lord appointed by the County Governor of Azurecloud County. Normally speaking, it was impossible for Liu Tong to replace him.
Moreover, he didn't want to eliminate Liu Tong and offend the Earthly Immortal expert behind Liu Tong because of this and offend a great enemy for no reason.
