Wei Huo and Zhou Song walked toward the City Lord's residence. On the way, they often heard pedestrians discussing. The players' news spread the fastest, but humans also had long-distance communication methods. That was why they knew about the situation on Mount Emei.
Compared to the players, there were hundreds of times more humans than the players.
"The vultures were destroyed, okay? They must pay the price for snatching Mount Emei!"
"I heard that the Legendary vultures destroyed the human cultivation techniques in the cave. Fortunately, someone brought them out long ago," Zhou Song said.
"The one who brought out the cultivation techniques was the City Lord of City A. It's said that he cultivated on Mount Emei for decades. After he left the mountain, he taught the cultivation techniques to many talented humans."
Wei Huo nodded slightly. That was why he had come to City A. There were not many people who had cultivated on Mount Emei. Apart from him, Xiao Bin was the only one. If Xiao Bin was really the City Lord of City A, Wei Huo had something to ask him.
At that moment, uniform footsteps were heard from behind Wei Huo and the others. At the same time, the sound of armor rubbing against each other could be heard.
The sound was weird. Their footsteps were so uniform that they should be trained soldiers. However, the soldiers they had seen were not wearing heavy armor. Their combat uniforms would not make such a sound.
Zhou Song turned his head to take a look and suddenly exclaimed, "It's the Rose Women Warrior Group!"
The pedestrians made way for them. There were seven of them, and a woman who looked like a soldier was walking in front. The other six female soldiers walked neatly in two rows.
They did not have any firearms on them. Each of the female warriors carried a small round shield and a machete on their back. They looked majestic. The armor on their bodies covered their entire bodies, only revealing their faces. From their eyes, it could be seen that they had undergone rigorous training.
The leading soldier's equipment was different from theirs. She did not have a small round shield or scimitar, but she was carrying a heavy sword.
The female warriors' armor was carved with rose patterns, and their cloaks were embroidered with black roses. They strode forward quickly.
The pedestrians made way for them, as if they knew how powerful they were. Zhou Song said, "They are the subordinates of Countess Rose. It's said that the Countess is the City Lord's niece. That's why they have a high status in the city. No one dares to provoke them."
The female warrior brushed past Wei Huo and the others and walked away. Wei Huo thought of something but did not say anything.
Zhou Song continued, "It is said that the Countess fled here for her life. The pursuers were also holding roses, but they were white roses. However, when the City Lord appeared, the pursuers retreated. No one knows what happened before this."
The two of them arrived at the City Lord's Mansion as they walked. The City Lord's Mansion was majestic and occupied a huge area. Not only was it the City Lord's residence, but it was also the administrative center of City A. Countless administrative personnel worked there.
There were soldiers guarding the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion, and there were also security checks. Ordinary people were not allowed to enter at all.
However, Wei Huo and Zhou Song were not ordinary people. Zhou Song walked forward and displayed his pseudo-imposing aura: Brave Aura. The soldier was stunned. The detector immediately reported a value: Half-step Epic!
The guards were shocked and immediately made way for him. A sergeant walked over and asked respectfully, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"
Zhou Song said, "Find your City Lord!"
Zhou Song sounded like a petitioner who had walked into the city hall and shouted, "I'm looking for your mayor!"
Under normal circumstances, the guards would have chased such a person away. Was the mayor someone ordinary people could meet?
However, one could do whatever they wanted here if they were strong.
Although Zhou Song was not at the Epic stage yet, being a half-step Epic was enough for the guards to take him seriously. That was why the sergeant immediately said, "Please follow me!"
At the same time, a guard immediately called the City Lord to report. A half-step Epic creature had to be reported to the City Lord. First, they had to do a good job in security. Second, they had to do a good job in receiving them. By the time they arrived, the tea would definitely be ready.
Zhou Song knew that this was the value of this era. The strong would be respected no matter where they were.
They walked into the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion was similar to the administrative center of Area C of the Soaring Cloud City. It was also a reinforced concrete house. The only difference was that there were many guards patrolling inside, and they were all quite strong. Compared to the mutants of the Soaring Cloud City, the number and quality of the cultivators who cultivated in City A were much higher.
However, in terms of technology, City A could not compare to the Soaring Cloud City.
They each had their own characteristics.
The sergeant led Wei Huo and the others to a luxurious room. There was a long brown table in the middle of the room. There was a red cloth on it, and the edges of the red cloth were inlaid with a golden frame. There were all sorts of fruits, desserts, and cakes on the table. After Wei Huo and Zhou Song sat down, a sweet-looking maid poured tea for them. A butler stood at the door and waited for instructions.
The sergeant asked the butler about it. In the end, the City Lord would arrive soon and he had to ask the guests to wait for a while.
Moments later, someone came over to pass a message. The butler and the maid left the room immediately. Dozens of seconds later, a person finally walked in.
The person walked in and was shocked when he saw Wei Huo. He knelt on the ground and said in a trembling voice, "Master, you're finally back!"
Zhou Song was shocked. He knew the person kneeling on the ground. This person was obviously the City Lord of City A. However, he had suddenly knelt on the ground and called Wei Huo his master. Zhou Song was shocked.
Wei Huo's golden eyes scanned the person. That's right, he was Xiao Bing, who had become Wei Huo's disciple decades ago. He had not expected him to walk out of Mount Emei and become the City Lord of City A.
However, it was a pity that his realm was not stable.
However, Wei Huo did not say anything. He was like an ordinary person, and his golden eyes were no longer staring at Xiao Bing. He only asked, "Do you want to improve your strength?"
Xiao Bing was stunned. He lifted his head and felt that Wei Huo was a very ordinary person. He did not emit any aura, but the more that was the case, the more terrifying he felt.
Xiao Bing knew that Wei Huo's strength had definitely reached a terrifying level. He quickly said, "Master, of course I want to improve. Please teach me!"
Wei Huo asked, "Are you willing to give up the position of City Lord?"
Xiao Bing was stunned. Wei Huo's words had hit the nail on the head. He had already known that the person who had come to find him was Wei Huo. That was why he had sent the people in the room away. His goal had been to prevent them from seeing him, the City Lord, kneel.
Xiao Bing suddenly felt very regretful when he thought about what he had done. He had placed too much importance on his vanity. Did he need to care about his pride when kneeling to his master?
He suddenly thought it through and said, "I'm willing to give up. I hope to follow Master and listen to his teachings!"
Xiao Bing heaved a sigh of relief after saying that. This was actually a form of relief. A person's energy was limited. If he did not give up fame and fortune, it would be difficult for him to improve his strength.
