Just when Tianhai City's City Lord Mansion's people were making a copy of the middle-aged man's portrait and sending it to all the guard captains, the middle-aged man had already left the pier and found a desolate place. After that, he changed his face and appeared in front of everyone.
This time, what everyone saw was no longer a refined middle-aged man but a boorish man.
However, Cheng Yu knew that Tianhai City's City Lord Mansion had been trying to capture them. He didn't wish to stay in Tianhai City any longer. Therefore, he used the appearance of a boorish man to exit the city. After that, he used his fastest speed to leave Tianhai City.
Regarding this city, Cheng Yu had already marked it as a part of his plan.
Therefore, the current forbearance didn't mean that he was afraid. It was because he didn't wish to find trouble for himself. In any case, Tianhai City's master would soon change hands. Therefore, he wasn't in a hurry to take revenge.
When the time came, Bai Li would help him deal with them.
In order to not cause any unnecessary trouble, Cheng Yu continued to use the appearance of a boorish man to show himself.
At this moment, Cheng Yu was flying rapidly above the mountains. His destination was Ningshui City.
Because of the Fang Family's matter, Ning Wushuang had been worried about her father. Previously, because of the poison in her body, it was impossible for Cheng Yu to bring her to look for her father.
Now that the poison in her body had been neutralized, she kept requesting Cheng Yu to bring her to see her father.
After all, with her current situation, she might not be able to appear in front of others for many years. Because in the entire Cultivation Continent, it could be said that there were shadows of dynasties everywhere.
If others were to know that she was by Cheng Yu's side, it would bring trouble to Cheng Yu. She believed that very soon, the dynasty would know that the one who annihilated the Fang Family was Cheng Yu.
Tianhai City was located at the east coast of the Cultivation Continent while Ningshui City was located at the north of the central region. Even with Cheng Yu's current speed, it would still take him a month to reach Ningshui City.
A month later, Cheng Yu finally appeared in Ningshui City once again.
Ningshui City was only a third-grade city. However, to Cheng Yu, this city had a special meaning. Because this was the first city he had entered when he entered the Cultivation World.
And he was very clear that not far away from Ningshui City was Kunlun.
However, at this moment, Cheng Yu wasn't in a hurry to look for Kunlun. Instead, he rushed towards Ningshui City Lord Mansion.
For a small city like Ningshui City, even though so many years had passed, the changes here seemed to be very small. As Cheng Yu walked on the street, he felt like he had returned to the time when he first came here.
When he arrived at the City Lord Manor, he was stopped by the guards at the entrance.
"Please tell City Master Ning that an old friend has come to visit!" The rough-looking man cupped his fists towards the guard.
The guard glanced at the boorish man, his face full of suspicion. How could his city lord know such a boorish man?
However, seeing how polite this burly man was, he suppressed his suspicions and turned around to enter the City Lord Mansion. Not long after, he returned. At the same time, he was accompanied by a person who looked like a butler.
"You're the City Lord's old friend?" The butler was taken aback when he saw the big man. He wondered how such a person could know the City Lord.
"Yes!" The burly man nodded.
"Come with me!" The butler didn't ask any further. Although he was unwilling, the City Lord had already spoken. He didn't dare to disobey.
Although this wasn't the first time Cheng Yu came to Ningshui City, this was the first time he entered the City Lord Mansion.
The mansion wasn't small. There were many pavilions inside, making it look very beautiful.
Under the butler's lead, Cheng Yu was brought to a room.
"The City Lord is inside. You can go in!" The butler turned around and left.
With Cheng Yu's current strength, there was nothing for him to be afraid of in Ningshui City. He also didn't believe that this butler would have the guts to harm him.
Pushing the door open, he saw a middle-aged man sitting at the side of a tea table. From the middle-aged man's appearance, there were some similarities between him and Ning Wushuang.
However, this middle-aged man had an unspeakable haggard look.
Cheng Yu knew that this was Ningshui City Lord Ning Wuji.
When he saw the big man, Ning Wuji's heart was filled with doubt. He didn't remember having any old friend. Furthermore, his current situation was somewhat awkward.
Ever since his daughter had married into Fang Ye City's Fang Family, he had always been watched by the Fang Family. However, later on, he heard that on the day of his daughter's wedding, the Fang Family had been annihilated.
When he first heard this news, he didn't dare to believe it. The Fang Family was a family that had obtained the support of the dynasty. Who would be so daring to actually annihilate the Fang Family on the day of their wedding?
However, what made him worried was that his daughter had also been taken away by the people who annihilated the Fang Family.
However, after asking around, those people seemed to have specially come to save his daughter. Only then did he feel relieved. However, he heard another piece of news that made him despair.
Although his daughter had been rescued by those mysterious black-robed people, she had been poisoned by Fang Qingping's Thousand Flower Soul Eroding Fragrance.
At first, he didn't really understand what kind of poison it was. But after asking around, he found out that the Thousand Flower Soul Eroding Fragrance was actually a poison refined by the Poison Immortal.
When he received this news, it was like a bolt from the blue.
Although he was the City Lord, he didn't know much about the dynasty. Naturally, he also didn't know that the Poison Immortal was the Poison Elder of the dynasty. However, he knew the name of the Poison Immortal.
This was because the Poison Immortal was famous for his poisons. What was even more memorable was that this Poison Immortal didn't only refine poisons, but also never refined an antidote. At the same time, he only killed people and never saved people.
But his daughter had been poisoned by the Poison Immortal. This was simply a book to seize his daughter's life. In this world, who could detoxify the Poison Immortal's poison?
At least, he hadn't heard of anyone. His heart was filled with despair.
Now, it had already been nearly a year since his daughter was poisoned and rescued. There was still no news of his daughter. He was afraid that his daughter had already passed away.
And as a father, he didn't even know whether his daughter was alive or dead. No one could understand the pain in his heart.
What was even more hateful was that because the Fang Family had been annihilated, he was also targeted by the dynasty. And after those old friends of the City Lord heard about his daughter and the Fang Family, they also knew that the dynasty wouldn't let their Ningshui City off so easily. Therefore, in this past year, none of them came to comfort him.
But at this time, there was this boorish man who said that he was an old friend. This was the first time in this year that someone came to visit him.
