In just a short sentence, the authority of Nangong City had undoubtedly fallen into Sun Yi's hands.
However, Sun Yi did not feel that he had gained any advantage. Instead, he was somewhat worried. In the end, he was still an outsider. He was an existence without any foundation in the Bright Curse World. If he made any mistake, he would most likely be beaten to a point of no return.
The Bright Curse World was indeed not xenophobic. However, the conflicts and suppression between the forces had never stopped.
The reason why these problems did not erupt in Nangong City was because Sun Yi had always been showing weakness. Therefore, these conflicts were avoided.
However, Zhao Yunfu was neglected because of his radical mistake. Letting Sun Yi lead him was undoubtedly pushing him to the front, leaving him with no way to retreat.
Sun Yi had always been treading on thin ice in Nangong City to reach his current position. In the future, he would inevitably be attacked by both open and covert attacks. It was impossible to guard against them.
At this moment, Zhao Yunfu was also staring at Sun Yi. His eyes were filled with hatred.
Zhao Yunfu also did not understand why the one who benefited the most this time would be this nice old man.
…
Xiao Yang and Xing Tian walked in front, riding the wind. Because of Xiao Man, their pace wasn't very fast.
After leaving Nangong City, Xiao Yang took out the flying ship. If they flew over by themselves, the losses would not be small.
Not long later, NanGong Yu caught up. She landed on the flying ship and smiled apologetically.
Perhaps the people of the Bright Curse World would find it hard to understand. As the City Lord, NanGong Yu was actually so kind to Xiao Yang. She even had the intention to curry favor with him.
Of course, NanGong Yu was also forthright. She knew that if not for Xiao Yang's help, she would probably be tortured to death in the remaining ten years.
Although this was a business deal, and Xiao Yang had also made it clear that NanGong Yu could see it that way, she would not completely think that way.
It was just a pass. How could it be compared to his life?
Which was more important? She could still weigh it clearly.
"Daoist Xiao, I'm really sorry. I don't know why Zhao Yunfu would act like this today." NanGong Yu said helplessly.
Naturally, today's events were not arranged by NanGong Yu. At the same time, he could not understand how things had developed to such a stage.
Zhao Yunfu also seemed to have been possessed by a demon. He could not get along with Xiao Yang. It was hard for people to figure out what was going on.
If it was for the sake of his position in her heart, there was no need for him to do this. As such, NanGong Yu was clear that there were other reasons.
"It's just a small matter. I didn't take it to heart." Xiao Yang said indifferently as he stared at the sea of clouds ahead.
Xiao Man happily ran into the airship and said that she would cook a good meal for Xiao Yang to calm his anger.
NanGong Yu was feeling helpless in her heart. Initially, she wanted to let Xiao Yang get to know Nangong Cheng and interact with him more.
But he never expected that such a big mess would occur, making everyone unhappy.
"Mayor Nangong, you don't have to worry about it. If Xiao Yang says it's fine, then it's fine. You are indeed responsible for not looking after your family's vicious dog. You have to be more careful in the future. "Xing Tian laughed.
NanGong Yu nodded in agreement. He was in the wrong, so he had to accept whatever others said.
Moreover, Xiao Yang and the other two's origins were too mysterious. The only thing they showed was enough to tell that they were not simple. As such, even if he could not form a good relationship with them, at least he could not offend them.
"But I'll give you a piece of advice. When a vicious dog doesn't care about its owner's face and even wants to lead its owner to do something, you have to think about whether you are its owner." Xing Tian seemed to be saying it unintentionally, but it was also intentional.
Hearing this, NanGong Yu's brows furrowed.
Zhao Yunfu was indeed from the Bright Curse Boundary. However, he did not come from Nangong Cheng. He came from the north.
Although his origins were clean, there were still some suspicious points. It was just that NanGong Yu treated people with sincerity, so she did not investigate.
In addition, Zhao Yunfu had indeed worked hard all these years. His loyalty had reached a point where there was no doubt.
Otherwise, how could Zhao Yunfu become the leader of the elders?
However, his attitude towards Xiao Yang today was a little too different. It was even extremely abnormal.
What was the reason for this? It was a little thought-provoking.
"Zhao Yunfu should be fine. He must be too nervous." NanGong Yu smiled.
NanGong Yu had a balance in her heart. Zhao Yunfu's behavior today was indeed abnormal. However, she could not directly reject him because of this.
She was angry before because she wanted Zhao Yunfu to reflect on himself.
Once this incident was over, Zhao Yun's position in Nangong City would still be second only to one person and above everyone else!
"There's one more thing. We only know that you were poisoned by the Heart Devouring Cicada. However, we don't know how you were poisoned." Xing Tian said.
Xiao Yang also raised his head and looked over. This was also one of the points that he was confused about.
The Heart Devouring Cicada was not a simple poison. After it entered the body, it was impossible to not notice it.
"There's also a trace of consciousness hidden in the Heart Devouring Cicada. It's very weak and will shatter with a light touch. There are no clues." Xiao Yang added.
Hearing this, NanGong Yu could not help but frown.
All along, NanGong Yu knew that this was the scheme of his enemy. However, he could not find out who did it.
Why would they use such a despicable method to torture him to death? He had a suspect, but he could not confirm it.
"When I discovered the Heart Devouring Cicada, it was already in my heart. It was also because the poison was in my heart that I did not directly crush it. Otherwise, I would have lost my life. "NanGong Yu said with some pain.
That was a time that he did not want to recall.
It was too dark and torturous!
"However, before this, I had fought against an old enemy of mine. Both of us were seriously injured. If it wasn't for Zhao Yunbu's appearance, I'm afraid that my old enemy and I would've ended up in mutual destruction," Nangong Yu said.
This was also the reason why NanGong Yu would try her best to promote Zhao Yunfu. Although strength was one aspect, trust was the most important.
This was how friends who had gone through life and death together were.
"Zhao Yunfu was also here?" Xing Tian said with some playfulness.
NanGong Yu laughed carelessly at first. However, her face immediately changed.
In the past, NanGong Yu also thought that Zhao Yunfu might have done something. However, after thinking about it, it was impossible. At that time, Zhao Yunfu could have killed him!
However, he did not. Therefore, NanGong Yu dismissed this thought.
However, this time, when Xiao Yang took out the Heart Devouring Cicada, his attitude changed so much that he even wanted to kill Xiao Yang. This was too abnormal!
