As soon as these words came out, Nangong Xiao and Nangong Yong were shocked. They looked at Elder Zhao in disbelief. What was going on?
The City Lord was inevitably a little confused because of the pain, so what he said now could not be taken seriously at all. Everyone should be trying to persuade him, but why did he agree so easily?
Did Elder Zhao not want to see the City Lord continue to suffer, so he had to do this?
For a moment, Nangong Xiao, Nangong Yong, and the others were stunned. They found it hard to accept for a moment. What was going on?
Their minds were completely blank. Zhao Yunduo and the City Lord were friends who had gone through life and death together. So, how could Elder Zhao do something that was not beneficial to the City Lord?
Sun Yi could see clearly that Zhao Yunbu's face was cold. He did not look like he was joking. He could even feel some killing intent.
Zhao Yunbu really wanted to kill the City Lord!
Sun Yi frowned. He had always felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. Now, he seemed to have seen some clues. It seemed that everyone was in this situation. Once they made the wrong choice, the final result would be death.
Even if they could leave here alive, they would probably face a situation where everyone in the Bright Curse Realm would want to beat them up. In that case, it was not worth it.
So, where did the problem lie? This point was even more difficult to figure out.
Immediately, Sun Yi looked sideways and found that the City Lord's old friend was sitting there. He still looked indifferent, as if whatever happened here had nothing to do with them.
The other party could be so calm. Sun Yi, who was the calmest, had already seen through today's matter.
This was a trap, a trap used to test Zhao Yunbo's strength!
Suddenly, Sun Yi thought of another possibility. Since that person had the ability to take out the heart-biting insect, he could certainly put it back.
Some answers were already on the verge of coming out in Sun Yi's heart, but he had not said it yet. So, he did not dare to say it directly.
Once some words were said in advance, the head that was exposed would shrink back. This time, the layout would really fall short of success.
Thinking of this, Sun Yi lowered his head and watched their performance.
Nangong Xiao and Nangong Yong saw that Zhao Yunbu was approaching the City Lord step by step. They did not dare to hesitate and immediately rushed up to stop him.
"Elder Zhao, we know that it's very painful for you to make this decision. However, as long as the City Lord was still alive, there was still hope for him to be saved. Now was not the time to be impulsive. No matter how painful it is in our hearts, we still have to endure it. "Nangong Xiao advised earnestly.
In the past few decades, Elder Zhao's contributions were obvious to all, and the friendship between him and the City Lord could not be faked.
Thus, even now, the two youngsters felt that Zhao Yunbo was merely unable to bear to see the City Lord continue to suffer, and had no choice but to do this.
A slight smile appeared on Xiao Yang's face. It seems like Zhao Yuntuo's character in Nangong City was not bad. Or else, they would still be clueless about the situation.
From this, it could be seen that many things were not as simple as they seemed.
Suddenly, Xiao Yang also felt a gaze directed at him. He turned around and saw Sun Yi's evasive gaze.
Xiao Yang smiled and nodded, as if he had already seen through everything.
Chief Sun, who was good at concealing himself, was indeed not involved in the situation, which was why he could see some clues.
However, he was still unsure of which side Sun Yi was on. However, this was not a big deal. When the time was right, no matter what his identity was, it would be exposed.
Seeing this, the other elders and consecrators also went up to pull Zhao Yunbo and advised, "Elder Zhao, this is just the City Lord's foolish words, don't take it seriously."
Now, they all felt that Zhao Yunbo was in great pain, and that he had no choice but to make such a decision.
Although the chances of the City Lord recovering were very small, they could not kill that little bit of hope in their hands.
Sometimes, although hope seemed illusory, as long as it existed, it was enough!
"Get lost!" Zhao Yunbo suddenly roared. Immediately, Nangong Xiao, Nangong Yong and the group of people who were pulling him were all sent flying.
Especially those who were of lower cultivation and whose strength was not stable enough, they were directly shaken to the point that their Qi and blood were in turmoil, causing them to feel extremely uncomfortable.
After Nangong Xiao fell to the ground, he could clearly feel the murderous aura.
"Brother Zhao, are you really planning to kill me?" NanGong Yu's tone suddenly became a lot deeper.
However, because he was clearly in a weak state, his words were also weak.
At this moment, NanGong Yu's heart was in great pain. Although he did not believe that Zhao Yunbo was a spy, for Nangong City, he had to test any clues.
However, the result of this test was sadness.
He had found a dangerous factor for Nangong City, but he, NanGong Yu, would lose an old friend.
Was this deal a profit or a loss?
Zhao Yunbo coldly laughed and said, "Since you're in such pain, I'll grant you your wish, and you'll be free."
NanGong Yu helplessly shook his head. Although he did not believe it, the truth was right in front of him, what else could he do?
In fact, NanGong Yu hoped that he was overthinking, or that Zhao Yunbo would change after so many years of friendship.
Then, Zhao Yunbo would still be the number one elder of Nangong City, and they would still be close friends.
However, from the looks of it, that ray of hope had completely disappeared, and had nothing to do with him anymore.
NanGong Yu's heart was in great pain, but there was nothing he could do. Everyone had their own ambitions.
NanGong Xiao fiercely rushed in front of the City Lord, looking as if he would kill him if he wanted to.
"Even so, I still have a question in my heart. You had the chance to kill me ten years ago, why did you save me?" NanGong Yu asked.
As soon as the words came out, everyone present was stunned. What did the City Lord mean by that?
Sun Yi also sat there without moving, quietly observing the situation.
The elders also came to their senses. At the same time, they realized that the development of this matter had indeed exceeded their expectations, and was heading towards an even worse situation.
The current situation had become very delicate. Although no one knew what had happened, it was true that Zhao Yunbo wanted to kill the City Lord!
"At that time, it seemed like there was a chance, but once I made my move, I was afraid that I would die. You did not even use all your trump cards in that situation, how could we not be afraid? Besides, if we kill NanGong Yu, there would naturally be someone else from Nangong City who would stand out. What we want is to completely destroy the Nangong Family! "Zhao Yunbo laughed.
