Since this matter had been completely exposed, the elders present were all in danger. Because they had chosen the wrong side, their previous actions were no different from betraying the city.
Everyone's hearts were filled with fear. If NanGong Yu were to start cleaning up her old debts, then their lives would be in danger. Therefore, in order to survive, they had no choice but to kneel and beg for mercy. This seemed to be the only way.
NanGong Yu was also very clear that it was unrealistic to kill all of them. Furthermore, they had previously contributed to Nangong City, it would be unreasonable to kill them. Furthermore, they had only agreed and did not take any action.
However, once these people left and spread the news, they would lose the initiative. Who knows, West Gate City might even come up with a new plan to deal with them. When that time comes, the situation would become even worse.
Therefore, these people could not be allowed to take even half a step out of this place. Once this news was leaked, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"City Lord, we were all coerced." Some elders and consecrators did not give up and continued to quibble.
They all wanted to live, but the only choice they could make was to do their best to beg. Only in this way could they have a way out.
NanGong Yu coldly stared at them. These people were not like this before. Even if she did not kill them, Nangong City would not dare to use them in the future. After all, these people had betrayed the city the first time. If there were any problems in the future, they would inevitably make the same choice.
"Everyone, stay here and don't do anything. You will be safe. If you dare to spread the news, don't blame me for being merciless. "NanGong Yu coldly said.
NanGong Yu's patience had been completely worn out. Furthermore, there was no need for her to be merciful with these people.
Seeing this, the crowd did not dare to continue speaking. NanGong Yu had not completely exploded yet, so they could only retreat.
After all, this was an internal matter of Nangong City. As an outsider, Xiao Yang naturally did not have the need to interfere. After curing the poison, he stood aside and watched the show.
After all, it was NanGong Yu's problem to deal with. It did not have much to do with him.
Now that this matter was over, what Xiao Yang should do next was what he had to consider. After all, there were still many opportunities in this secret realm. If he could find one or two of them, he would benefit greatly.
After a short while, NanGong Yu had finished dealing with the situation and left.
As for those who had clearly pledged their allegiance to Zhao Yunkuo, they were all imprisoned by him and were not allowed to leave.
Even the elders who didn't speak were forbidden from leaving this place.
After all, this matter concerned the life and death of Nangong Cheng, how could NanGong Yu be careless?
At the same time, NanGong Yu felt extremely helpless in her heart. She had never thought that such a huge city like Nangong City would be infiltrated by Zhao Yun in just a few decades, causing many people to have a change of heart.
The most important reason for that was because the City Lord trusted Zhao Yunbo too much, and had given him too much authority. Otherwise, in that sort of situation, there would likely still be people who would step forward.
As long as it was Sun Yi, NanGong Yu would only give a few words of praise and nothing more.
NanGong Yu had always been on guard against this person. Even if he had taken the initiative to step forward in the previous situation, she still couldn't completely trust him.
Sun Yi was too low-key. Furthermore, he was also very sensitive when it came to protecting himself. Such a person would either not take action, or once he did, the consequences would be extremely terrifying.
Zhao Yunkuo's character was extremely radical. Once he saw benefits, he would lose his rationality and disregard everything else. Such a flaw was extremely obvious.
However, Sun Yi was different. He planned before taking action. If he didn't have sufficient confidence, he would probably continue to remain silent.
Sun Yi didn't mind this. After all, he felt that he was just waiting for death to come. Sometimes, he would help when he needed to, that was all.
Why wouldn't he be happy to be able to have some free time?
NanGong Yu quickly walked in front of Xiao Yang and cupped her hands in respect, saying: "This time, thank you for your righteousness, Brother Xiao, for saving NanGong Yu and many of our clansmen."
NanGong Yu was very clear in her heart. This time, she was indeed a little radical. It could even be said that she had gone overboard.
If it weren't for Xiao Yang's efforts to turn the tide, they would probably have died here, without a future.
Xiao Yang smiled calmly and said: "It's just business. Don't mention it."
For a moment, even NanGong Yu was speechless. Xiao Yang was truly a one-track mind, leaving her speechless.
Nangong Xiao and NanGong Yong covered their mouths and laughed secretly. Although it was still business, they still remembered the benefits in their hearts.
For the sake of the entry badge, they had already done enough.
NanGong Yu smiled and nodded her head. She also understood that Xiao Yang had made such a clear distinction between the two parties, so that they wouldn't have to worry about each other's feelings.
This person was so principled. He was also someone worth befriending.
However, Xiao Yang's actions just now were equivalent to saving the entire Nangong City.
If NanGong Yu were to really die here today, and most of the Elders and Consecrators were to betray them, when the army of West Gate City arrives, the remaining cultivators of Nangong City in the Cloud Valley would probably be doomed.
"Cultivator Xiao, please capture Zhao Yunfu's Divine Sense and see when Ximen City is planning to make their move." NanGong Yu requested.
Xiao Yang nodded his head and said: "No problem."
Then, Xiao Yang walked over and performed a hand seal, beginning to capture the Divine Sense.
If they could obtain some information from Zhao Yunfu's Divine Sense, Nangong City would be able to come up with a plan.
Perhaps they still had a chance to turn the tables even when they were at a disadvantage.
Previously, Xiao Yang had learned from Zhang Xuanzhi that Ximen City's reinforcements were relatively powerful. With Nangong City's current strength, it would be quite difficult for them to fight against the reinforcements.
In fact, it could be said that it was almost impossible. It would be difficult to deal with the situation once the situation came crashing down.
However, if they were able to obtain information about the enemy, it was not impossible for them to fight against the enemy!
NanGong Yu had the same concern too. At the same time, she felt extremely fortunate that Xiao Yang had come to their Nangong City in order to obtain the entry badge.
Or else, the Nangong City that their ancestors had built up would be destroyed in a short period of time.
He would then become the Lord of Destruction, a mark on the family tree, and a sinner for all eternity. He would be despised and hated by the future generations!
