"City Lord?" Nie Tian was startled when he heard Shen Tao mention the City Lord. The corners of his lips curled upwards.
Nie Tian really wanted to know everything about the Seven Dark Cities. However, he had to consider the risks involved if he went looking for the City Lord without any preparation.
Although the Seven Dark Cities appeared to be very peaceful, no one could say for sure what kind of person the City Lord was. Perhaps he was a homicidal maniac who would kill people at the slightest disagreement.
"Have you seen the City Lord before?" Nie Tian looked at Shen Tao and asked in a deep voice.
"I've seen him once." Shen Tao nodded and added: "I've only seen the back of the City Lord from afar."
Nie Tian couldn't help but smile. He originally wanted to ask Shen Tao about the City Lord, but it seemed that Shen Tao was only a small fry who didn't know anything.
"Shen Tao, I'll ask you one last question. You can leave after you answer it." Nie Tian thought for a moment before his eyes flickered.
"What question?" Shen Tao was slightly startled and couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
"Have you heard of the Black Lotus organization?" Nie Tian's eyes slightly narrowed as he asked in a deep voice.
The Black Lotus was something Nie Tian had learned from Gui Wucan. It was rumored to be the ruler of the Realm of Darkness.
Nie Tian guessed that the City Lord of the Seven Dark Cities was most likely someone from the Black Lotus.
"Black Lotus?" Shen Tao's eyes couldn't help but tremble when he heard these two words. His expression turned into one of horror as he repeatedly shook his head: "Never heard of it, never heard of it."
Nie Tian's expression sank. Shen Tao's reaction clearly indicated that he had heard of it before.
From Shen Tao's appearance, it seemed that he was very afraid of the Black Lotus.
"Shen Tao, you can leave." Nie Tian thought for a moment before waving his hand.
Shen Tao was stunned for a moment before he reacted and quickly got up to leave.
"Nie Tian, why did you let him go? He clearly knows about the Black Lotus. It's a good opportunity to find out something from him. "Jian Jingyun asked with a puzzled expression after Shen Tao left.
Nie Tian faintly smiled and said: "Shen Tao's status is too low. He's just a small fry. Even if he knows about the Black Lotus, I'm afraid it's just hearsay. It's impossible to understand the Black Lotus from his mouth! "
Jian Jingyun and Gui Wucan looked at each other and nodded. They agreed with Nie Tian.
However, they at least knew one thing now, and that was that the Black Lotus really existed!
"Nie Tian, are you going to see the City Lord of the Seven Dark Cities?" Ruoyu Qianye couldn't help but guess something when she saw Nie Tian's gloomy expression.
"Yes." Nie Tian looked at Ruoyu Qianye and nodded solemnly. "If you want to know more about Darkness City and the Realm of Darkness, you must meet the City Lord."
"Nie Tian, we've just arrived here and haven't figured out the situation yet. Isn't it too rash to go find the City Lord?" Jian Jingyun said with a frown.
They didn't know anything about the City Lord of the Seven Dark Cities. Going to find the other party so rashly was indeed very rash.
Since the other party was a City Lord, his strength was certainly not weak. If he became hostile after seeing Nie Tian's group, it would be bad.
Nie Tian thought for a moment and nodded. "Let's wait for a few days."
Following that, Nie Tian's group left the restaurant and prepared to ask around for information in the next few days. Perhaps they could find some news about Guiwu Kuangsha.
After wandering around the city for a few days, Nie Tian discovered that the city was filled with patrolling guards. Each guard was very nervous, constantly observing the people around them.
Three days later, Nie Tian's group didn't find anything of value and decided to make a trip to the City Lord's Mansion.
The four arrived outside the City Lord's Mansion. Looking at the imposing City Lord's Mansion, they didn't hesitate and prepared to enter.
"Who's there?" Just when Nie Tian arrived at the entrance of the city lord's Mansion, two figures descended from the sky. Their presences surged and they were filled with killing intent.
Nie Tian glanced at the two of them and scanned them with the senses of his soul. He discovered that they were not weak. They were actually mid Overgods.
"Sirs, we are cultivators from the Seven Dark Cities. We have some matters that we would like to ask the City Lord about. Please pass on the message for us," Nie Tian bowed slightly and said indifferently.
He had come to visit the City Lord after all, so he obviously had to be polite to the people of the City Lord's Mansion.
The two guards glanced past Nie Tian's group. One of them smiled coldly and said, "Many people come to the Seven Dark Cities every day. Do you think the City Lord is someone you can see as you please?"
Nie Tian frowned slightly, but he still suppressed his anger. He said indifferently, "Sirs, I really do have matters to discuss with the City Lord. Please pass on the message for me."
With that, a Godhead of a Higher God appeared in Nie Tian's hand and he passed it over.
He did not want to cause any unnecessary trouble, so he chose to lower his head for now.
"Hmph!" The two guards glanced past the Godhead and smiled Coldly. They said scornfully, "It's just a Godhead of a Higher God, and you want us to do something for you? Do you think we're beggars?"
Nie Tian's eyes suddenly sank. His patience was about to run out. Suddenly, he raised his head and looked at the two guards. He said Coldly, "What do you want?"
"What do I want?" One of the guards sneered. He then glanced past Ruoyu Qianye and sniggered, "This girl is quite pretty. It'll be a waste for her to stay with you. Why don't you keep her and let her play with us? You can just enter the estate. What do you think? "
"Nothing." Nie Tian's eyes suddenly narrowed, and his face sank. Terrifying killing intent radiated from him as he emphasized every single word.
"Brat, you want to fight?" The two guards were not afraid when they saw that Nie Tian was enraged. Instead, they smiled arrogantly and said, "A mid-stage Higher God trash dares to act so arrogantly in the City Lord's Mansion? You're courting death!"
Before the two guards could finish their words, two surges of Sword Essence suddenly whizzed out. Although the momentum was not strong, it was extremely swift and fierce. The Sword Essence flew straight at the two guards.
Pfft! Pfft! Immediately, two sounds of flesh being torn apart were heard. The two guards' arms were cut off and blood gushed out.
"Stinking brat, you …" The two guards cried out in surprise, and their eyes trembled. But before they could finish their words, they felt a powerful sword force pressing down on them, and it actually made them feel suffocated.
The two guards trembled and fell to the ground.
Nie Tian took a step forward. His cold gaze swept past the two guards and the Forbidden Runes around him dissipated.
Although he did not kill the two guards, he taught them a lesson so that they would not dare to look down on him again.
After all, the two guards were from the City Lord's Mansion. It would be inappropriate for Nie Tian to kill the City Lord's Mansion's people before he even met the City Lord.
After taking care of the two guards, Nie Tian stepped forward and prepared to enter the City Lord's Mansion.
However, at this moment, something strange happened.
"Blood!" Suddenly, a deep roar sounded. Then, a figure shot up into the sky from the City Lord's Mansion. His aura was ferocious to the extreme, and a violent aura filled the air.
Nie Tian looked in the direction of the voice. A tyrannical figure soared into the sky. But his four limbs were bound by specially made iron chains. The figure came to an abrupt halt in midair.
