The two Rank Nine True Spirit Martial Cultivators who had just escaped from the Clear Water Cloud Pavilion also followed the group and rushed back.
Apart from the two from the Emerald Water Pavilion, the rest were from the Celestial Treasure Auction House. It seemed like Long Yu had 'stolen' the Law Mystic Leaf, and they had no choice but to ask the mayor of Soldier Death City for help.
There were more than ten people in the group, and the one leading them was a black figure in the sky. He wore a black mask, and his eyes were filled with an intimidating aura.
This person was the mayor of Soldier Death City, an expert of the Heavenly Secret Realm!
No matter how strong Tian Yutian was, he was no match for an expert of the Heavenly Secret Realm. It was not only because of the difference in strength, but also because of the difference in cultivation level.
As for Long Yu, even if he was at his peak condition, he would not be able to fight against an expert of the Heavenly Secret Realm, let alone now that he was unable to move.
"It's over …"
Tian Yutian groaned in his heart as he watched the opponent approaching him.
In the face of a Heavenly Secret Realm expert, it was impossible to escape!
Thus, Tian Yutian decided to just stand there and put away the Transcendent Spirit Ranked Combat Weapon. Like an inescapable net, he quietly waited for the enemy to arrive.
His only hope was that the mayor of Soldier Death City would be reasonable. If that was the case, he might be able to deal with the opponent.
"I heard that the mayor of Soldier Death City was impartial when he governed the city. I wonder if it's true."
Tian Yutian thought to himself.
These were all rumors. The mayor of Soldier Death City rarely showed his face outside, so not many people knew if it was true or not.
Not long after, the mayor of Soldier Death City had already flown a few hundred zhang away, and was the first to arrive before Tian Yutian!
"Where is the Law Mystic Leaf?"
Even though the mayor of Soldier Death City had a strong aura, he did not use it to oppress others. Instead, he asked in a deep voice.
From the voice, it sounded like a middle-aged man, and his tone revealed his calmness.
Even though he was an expert of the Heavenly Secret Realm, the mayor of Soldier Death City did not fly in the air and speak from above. Instead, he landed on the ground.
"Over here."
Before Tian Yutian could say anything, Liu Yuan spoke up from behind.
At this moment, Liu Yuan had calmed down. In the face of absolute power, resistance was futile. The only way to survive was to reason with the other party!
"Oh?"
The black-robed City Lord raised his head and glanced at Liu Yuan. "You have come to my Soldier's Demise City to behave atrociously. Are you looking down on me, the City Lord?"
"City Lord, I don't think we are the ones who are behaving atrociously in Soldier Demise City, right?"
Liu Yuan asked in return.
"Nonsense!"
At this time, Manager Zhang of the Immortal Treasure Auction House jumped out and hid behind the City Lord. He pointed at Long Yu and hatefully said, "This brat took advantage of the middle of the night and stole our Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf. Isn't he the one causing trouble in Fallen Soldier City?"
"Moreover, this kid even killed our Clear Water Pavilion's Jin Xiong in front of countless people at the market square. He doesn't have any respect for the City Lord at all!"
The scar-faced Martial Cultivator from the Clear Water Pavilion also spoke of this matter and coldly snorted.
"The matter at the market square was a duel between Brother Long and Jin Xiong. Someone from your Clear Water Pavilion, a person from the Rank Eight True Spirit, wanted to bully a junior from the Rank Six True Spirit, but was killed by him.
Tian Yutian was very clear about this matter and coldly snorted.
"A duel is fine."
The City Lord waved his hand, indicating that he did not want to pursue this matter. Then, he said, "However, stealing from my Soldier Demise City is against the rules. You should hand over the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf and follow me back to receive punishment."
"Why don't you just kill us?"
Liu Yuan snorted and said disdainfully, "If you want to protect the people from the auction house, you have a reason no matter what. Why are you pretending to be a good person?"
"Cover up?"
The City Lord of Soldier Demise City chuckled, "Could it be that the people from the Immortal Treasure Auction House are evil people?"
"City Lord, don't listen to their nonsense!"
Manager Zhang of the Immortal Treasure Auction House clenched his teeth and said, "The auction of our Immortal Treasure Auction House has already begun. If we can't take out the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf, it will greatly damage the image of the entire Soldier Demise City!"
"Mm."
The City Lord nodded and his aura suddenly changed, "You guys, why aren't you handing over the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf?"
His eyes swept across Liu Yuan and the others, and a formless pressure caused their hearts to tighten.
"Handing over the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf is not a problem."
Although Liu Yuan was facing a strong pressure, she still clenched her teeth stubbornly, "However, I can't accept that the people from the auction house are so arrogant!"
"What do you have to accept?"
The City Lord said indifferently.
"We initially planned to buy this Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf. If they don't sell it, we'll just wait for today's auction."
Liu Yuan raised her pretty face and said coldly, "However, this Manager Zhang told us to wait, but what we're waiting for is their attack! The people from the Immortal Treasure Auction House are obviously greedy! "
"That's right!"
Xi Yangwu also plucked up her courage and said, "If it wasn't for Brother Long's ability to fly, we would have been killed by them!"
"There's such a thing?"
The City Lord seemed a little surprised.
"City Lord, don't listen to their nonsense!"
Manager Zhang hurriedly said, "Our Immortal Treasure Auction House has been in Fallen Soldier City for many years. Don't you know our character? How could we do such a shameless thing! "
"That's right!"
Immediately, another martial cultivator from the Immortal Treasure Auction House said, "At that time, we only brought people in to see them to tell them that we can't sell the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf to them in advance. In the end, they broke the window and left us scratching our heads in confusion!"
"Hmph, telling us that we can't sell the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf, is there a need to bring so many people and guard the door with murderous intent?"
Liu Yuan said disdainfully.
Hearing both sides insist on their own words, the City Lord of Fallen Soldier City did not think much and just said, "Then you guys hand over the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf. As for the truth, I will naturally send people to investigate it thoroughly!"
As an expert in the Heaven Realm, the City Lord of Fallen Soldier City did not want to waste any more time here.
He just wanted to get the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf back and not affect the reputation of Fallen Soldier City because of it. As for the rest of the matter, he could just leave it to the City Lord's subordinates to handle. Why should he worry about it?
Liu Yuan was naturally dissatisfied with such a solution.
Why could the people from the Immortal Treasure Auction House be so greedy and want to kill people to steal their wealth?
Even if the City Lord seemed to be quite fair, it was hard to say for his subordinates.
The people from the City Lord's Mansion would most likely be biased towards the Immortal Treasure Auction House in the city. If they were to investigate, what would the result be?
"That's right, hurry up and hand over the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf. The City Lord is magnanimous and might even spare your lives!"
Steward Zhang said proudly.
With the support of the City Lord, he was now the winner. The Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf absolutely could not escape!
However, when he said this, his eyes flashed with killing intent. Obviously, as long as the City Lord left, he would definitely quietly send people to kill Long Yu and the others in front of him.
Looking at Manager Zhang's proud look, Liu Yuan and Xi Yangwu felt a burst of anger in their hearts.
However, with the City Lord of Fallen Soldier City in the Heaven Realm present, they definitely had no way to resist.
Did they have to hand over the Ten Thousand Laws Mysterious Leaf just like that?
In fact, it was not a big deal to hand it over. At most, they would have to go to the auction house and get the item.
However, it was hard to swallow this anger in their hearts!
"It seems that this old man is late. Why is it so lively here?"
Just then, an old man's voice that Liu Yuan was familiar with came from behind her. It sounded lazy and attracted everyone's attention.
Xi Crane Pine, Elder Xi!
Although Long Yu could not move, he could hear Elder Xi's voice and his heart could not help but move.
Elder Xi actually came at this time!
However, even if it was Elder Xi, in the face of an expert from the Heaven Realm, he certainly had no chance of winning.
"Grandfather!"
Xi Yangwu was overjoyed and quickly stood up. With a glance, she saw Xi Crane Pine descending from the sky and landing beside them.
Xi Crane Pine, dressed in a grey robe, was calm and composed. Although he had not stepped into the Heaven Realm, his aura did not lose to the City Lord of Fallen Soldier City at all!
"Hey, old man, are you the backer of this group of people?"
Manager Zhang did not notice the change in the eyes of the City Lord of Fallen Soldier City. When he saw Xi Crane Pine, he immediately laughed disdainfully, "Disrespectful old man, are you the one who taught your juniors to steal chickens and dogs?"
"What a joke."
Xi Crane Pine glanced at Manager Zhang and said indifferently, "You can kill people and rob them, but you can't let others rob you?"
"Old thing, how dare you be so arrogant in front of our City Lord?"
Manager Zhang snorted coldly.
"Shut up."
At this moment, the City Lord of Fallen Soldier City suddenly shouted, and his aura suddenly spread out, causing Manager Zhang to take three big steps back.
This scene shocked the people in the Immortal Treasure Auction House.
What was going on with the City Lord? Why was he so fierce toward Manager Zhang? He was just being nice to him just a moment ago!
"Elder Xi, I didn't expect you to be the one who needs the Mysterious Law Leaf."
The City Lord of Fallen Soldier City wore a sincere look as he bowed toward Xi Crane Pine.
His respectful demeanor caused everyone to widen their eyes in shock.
Even Long Yu, Liu Yuan, and Tian Yutian did not expect the City Lord of Fallen Soldier City to recognize Elder Xi, and to be so respectful toward him!
Tian Yutian was overjoyed. It seemed like the old man who had just arrived was quite capable.
His brother Lu Xiu was saved!
The current situation was a complete turnaround!
"If that's the case, you can take the Mysterious Law Leaf."
The City Lord of Fallen Soldier City said straightforwardly.
It was obvious that he trusted Xi Crane Pine's character. Even Elder Xi's men would not take the initiative to steal something. There must be something fishy about this!
It was highly possible that, as Liu Yuan had mentioned, the people of the Immortal Treasure Auction House were trying to rob them after seeing the Mysterious Law Leaf!
No one would be able to tolerate such an action!
"There's no need for that. I'll personally pay a visit to the Immortal Treasure Auction House."
However, Pine Crane did not care about the good intentions of the Fallen Soldier City's City Lord. Instead, he said indifferently, "Give the Ten Thousand Arts Mysterious Leaf to them to auction. However, none of the culprits who tried to harm my men will be able to escape. "
The scene caused the people of the Immortal Treasure Auction House to break out in cold sweat.
The City Lord of Fallen Soldier City recognized the old man who had suddenly appeared?
It seemed like the old man had a formidable background!
