After Xia Ping left, the group of Qingyang City Elders could no longer suppress the anger in their hearts.
"City Lord, you're too arrogant towards that outsider."
"That's right. The secret manuals in the Sutra Pavilion were obtained with great difficulty by our Qingyang City. Now, that brat can view them without paying any price. What right does he have!"
"Even our Elders have to contribute to view the secret manuals. That outsider has not contributed anything to Qingyang City, yet he stepped into the Sutra Pavilion and casually read the secret manuals. I can't accept this."
"That's right. That bastard was so arrogant just now. He slapped our faces right in front of our faces. If not for the City Lord's timely intervention, General Liu would have been killed by him. How can such a lawless person be tolerated?!"
"That's right. Such an arrogant person should be immediately arrested and executed."
The Elders gritted their teeth in indignation. They were practically questioning the City Lord. If not for the City Lord's prestige, they would have rioted.
Xia Ping's arrogant attitude made them gnash their teeth in anger.
"It's not that I don't want to deal with him, but that brat's martial strength is beyond imagination."
City Lord Gao Ansheng shook his head. "I'm afraid you still don't know what that young man did before coming to Qingyang City. He single-handedly killed over a thousand Petrified Demon Snakes and over a hundred Nether Ghosts. Which one of you can compare to his combat strength?"
What?!
Hearing this, the Elders were shocked. Over a thousand Petrified Demon Snakes and over a hundred Nether Ghosts were enough to massacre Qingyang City a dozen times over.
But now, this brat actually had the strength to kill so many experts. It was truly inconceivable.
"Impossible. City Lord, have you been deceived? He's just a junior. How could he have such strength? "Some Elders did not believe the City Lord's words at all.
"It's true."
City Lord Gao Ansheng said solemnly, "There's an undercover agent in the Tempest Caravan. He saw the brat's actions with his own eyes and immediately reported the news. This is the truth. There's no doubt about it. I already knew about it before that brat came to Qingyang City.
It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. Commanding the Che Xiu Army and instantly killing General Liu, isn't that enough to prove this young man's strength?
If such a ferocious god were to cause trouble in Qingyang City, it would probably get out of hand, and countless ordinary people would die. The reason why I agreed to so many of his requests was to keep the peace. "
He gave his reasons for doing so.
In fact, he had planted his own men and spies in every caravan in Green Sun City. His goal was to control all the information and resources of these caravans.
Many of the elders were silent. They still couldn't believe that Xia Ping had such strength. But now that the City Lord had made such a solemn vow, and the fate of Che Xiujun and the others was in front of them.
Even if the other party did not have the strength to kill over a hundred Nether Ghosts, he still had the strength to kill a dozen or so. If such a person really caused a ruckus, it would not be something that could be resolved with just a few deaths.
"But City Lord, that kid's background is really strange."
A white-haired elder suddenly said, "He actually doesn't know the origins of the Dark Ghosts, nor does he know the specific situation of this world. He hasn't even cultivated Dark Energy, so just how did he obtain such powerful combat power?"
He voiced out his doubts.
"Oh, Elder Tang, what's your guess?"
City Lord Gao Ansheng's eyes flashed. He could tell that this white-haired elder seemed to have noticed something.
This white-haired elder was the vice city lord of Green Sun City. He was also a strategist. His name was Tang Yu, and many of the decisions of Green Sun City had been made by him. He could be said to be the number one person under the City Lord, possessing great authority.
"If my guess is correct, that kid might not even be a person of our world, but a visitor from another world," Elder Tang Yu said decisively.
These words immediately shocked everyone, their hearts rippling with shock.
"That's impossible. Besides our world, are there other worlds with humans?" Many of the elders couldn't help but swallow, their mouths dry.
"What's impossible about it?"
Elder Tang Yu sneered. "The yaomo and Dark Ghosts both came from another world. Do you think that there are no other human worlds? The world is vast, and there are all sorts of strange things.
Now that you think about it, that kid's every action is completely out of step with the people of this world, whether it's his way of speaking, his identity, his clothes, his behavior, his manner of speech, his temperament, and his demeanor.
The most important evidence is that he doesn't cultivate Nether energy, but some other kind of energy. This proves that his origins are extraordinary, and it's much more likely that he comes from another world. "
He was extremely confident in his judgment. In this world, Nether energy was the foundation. There were no other cultivation methods.
Perhaps there were ten thousand years ago, but after the appearance of the Dark Ghosts, those cultivation methods had been abandoned. Without Nether energy to attack, humans would undoubtedly die against Dark Ghosts.
"It can't be. If he really is a human from another world, he should be careful. How could he be so bold and arrogant? Isn't he afraid of exposing his identity?"
Someone questioned.
"Why is he afraid of exposing his identity? That's a question only the weak need to consider. True experts have absolute strength. So what if their identity is exposed? Are they afraid of ants coming to deal with them?! "
Tang Yu spread his hands.
"This …!"
Everyone felt extremely sullen. According to Tang Yu's words, they were just ants that others looked down on. Even if they coveted them, they couldn't do anything to them.
If this was true, then this bastard was looking down on them too much.
But they still didn't quite believe it. This kind of speculation was far too shocking. The idea of another human world was completely beyond their imagination.
After all, the majority of people lived their entire lives within a range of tens of thousands of miles. They had never left any place beyond this range, much less another world. This kind of speculation was far too bold and unimaginable.
If there was evidence, then it would be fine. But there was no evidence. Just based on speculation, they found it hard to accept.
"Forget it. Whether or not Elder Tang's speculation is true, whether or not that boy is a visitor from another world, he's definitely a human. He won't eat humans like the Dark Ghosts and Yaomo do. This kind of human expert is beneficial to us. If the Dark Ghosts and Yaomo appear, perhaps he will be able to lend us a hand, "City Lord Gao Ansheng said indifferently.
"Yes, City Lord."
The elders were very unwilling, but they could only think this way.
All the elders were extremely indignant. But that was the only way they could think right now.
… …
An hour later, the Elders of Green Sun City retreated. City Lord Gao Ansheng stood up, a cold light in his eyes. He no longer had the demeanor of a nice old man. He walked to a guest hall in the back.
At this moment, several Elders of Green Sun City had appeared in this hall. Their bodies exuded an eerie ghostly aura that caused others to shiver. Even Gao Ansheng exuded a terrifying Nether energy.
