"Hahahaha!" All the soldiers of Green Wood City laughed mockingly when they heard Qing Hai's words. This made Ru Feng's expression turn even more unsightly.
"Lord Zhou, this Qinghai bullied me too much. Please help me vent my anger. When the war is over, I will definitely repay you handsomely! "Ru Feng gritted his teeth and said to a blue-robed old man beside him.
The old man's name was Zhou Ping. He was a Mahayana expert from the Kingdom of Roaring Dragons.
In the past, the Ru family wasn't the governor of the city. Although they knew that there was a mysterious force behind the governor's mansion, they didn't know what kind of force it was.
Now that the Ru family had become the head of Ru City, he naturally had to come into contact with this force as the governor of Ru City. It was then that he found out that the force behind him was called the Kingdom of Roaring Dragons.
As for Zhou Ping, he was sent by the Howling Sea Dynasty to preside over the war. However, what made Ru Feng uncomfortable was the fact that Zhou Ping didn't order the Howling Sea Dynasty's men to fight the Greenwood City's men. Instead, he ordered the Ru Family to fight.
Although he was very dissatisfied, Zhou Ping, a late-stage Great Ascension Stage expert, was enough to make him very afraid, let alone the strength of the Kingdom of Roaring Howl.
Therefore, the Ru Family had suffered such a big loss, but they could only swallow it.
Now that the Ru family had been defeated several times and were even mocked by Green Wood City, he had no other choice. The experts that he had hired with a high price were no longer willing to fight.
The reason why they were willing to assist the Ru family was because they needed cultivation resources. However, this didn't mean that they were willing to sacrifice their lives for this little bit of resources.
A few of their family generals had already been killed by the experts of Green Wood City. These people were already a little afraid. Faced with Green Wood City's provocation, Ru Feng had no other choice but to ask Zhou Ping to send his own people.
If the Ru family sent their people, they wouldn't have the ability to preside over Ru City even if they were still the ruler of Ru City after the war.
Therefore, he could only use resources to exchange for the Ru family's position in Ru City and ask Zhou Ping to send his own people.
"City Lord Ru, don't worry. The imperial court has already made a decision regarding this war. We shouldn't ruin the imperial court's plan. Otherwise, none of us will be able to bear the consequences!" Zhou Ping had his hands clasped behind his back as he watched the people from Cyanwood City continuously provoke him. However, he had a completely indifferent look on his face.
"Lord Zhou, why is that? The experts that Lord Zhou had brought with him were as numerous as the clouds. If Lord Zhou was willing to make a move, taking down Cyanwood City would be a simple matter. Taking down Green Wood City is such a huge contribution. When Lord Zhou returns to the imperial court, won't he be able to receive a reward? "Ru Feng was extremely puzzled by Zhou Ping's actions.
In his opinion, if Zhou Ping was willing to lend a hand, their Ru Family wouldn't be in such a state, losing their experts one by one. They would have long since conquered Cyanwood City.
He didn't look like he was here to start a fight. Instead, he looked like he was here to watch. Ru Feng was anxious.
Zhou Ping's expression suddenly turned cold as he looked at Ru Feng and said, "If your Ru Family wants to continue staying in Ru City, you'd better not ask about some things that you shouldn't know. Otherwise, the consequences will be worse than you can imagine."
Zhou Ping's expression suddenly turned cold as he looked at Ru Feng and said coldly, "Yes! Ru Feng knows his mistake! "
He didn't know much about the Kingdom of Roaring Sea. Up until now, he had only heard of its name. However, judging from the people sent by the Kingdom of Roaring Sea, the strength of this foreign imperial court was beyond his imagination.
After all, the Ru Family couldn't afford to raise a late-stage Great Vehicle Realm cultivator. They didn't have that many resources to provide them either.
However, for the mysterious Kingdom of Roaring Sea, it seemed like they could casually send a bunch of late-stage Great Vehicle Realm cultivators.
This was enough to show how terrifying the Kingdom of Roaring Sea was.
He had only just become the City Lord, so there were many things that he didn't know. In the past, he had always thought that after becoming the City Lord, his family would obtain incomparable glory and power.
However, after becoming the City Lord of Ru City, he felt that this wasn't the case. Previously, he had won the battle to seize the city from various forces and obtained the position of the City Lord.
At that time, people from the foreign imperial court had come to congratulate him and brought gifts from the foreign imperial court. He felt that he had obtained the approval of the forces behind him and that he would have a meteoric rise in the future.
However, after that glory, he realized that a City Lord was nothing in the eyes of the foreign imperial court. Therefore, no matter who won the battle, it didn't mean anything to the foreign imperial court.
All they needed was an obedient city manager.
Just like now, he was baffled by this battle. He didn't know why they had to declare war on Green Wood City. He also didn't know why Zhou Ping didn't attack Green Wood City even though he had brought so many experts with him. It was as if he was deliberately letting the battle go on like this.
"City Lord Ru, don't worry. Since you are now the City Lord of Ru City, as long as you don't betray the foreign imperial court, your position in Ru City won't be easily replaced.
Although your family has lost some people in the past few days, this can be considered as your contribution to the foreign imperial court. When the time comes, the foreign imperial court will naturally reward you!
As long as you have resources, what are a few Nascent Soul cultivators? When the time comes, there will naturally be more experts who will work for your family! " Zhou Ping smiled faintly when he saw how cautious Ru Feng was. He looked at him with a gentle expression.
If he wanted these City Lords to serve the foreign imperial court well, he had to hit them with a stick and give them a carrot. He had to make them understand that as long as they obediently followed the foreign imperial court, they would receive a lot of benefits.
"Thank you for your reminder, Lord Zhou. Please put in a good word for me when you return to the foreign imperial court. I will be eternally grateful!" Ru Feng, who was originally a little disappointed with the position of City Lord, immediately became excited when he heard Zhou Ping's words.
Thus, he unknowingly took out a jade pouch and placed it in Zhou Ping's hand. Zhou Ping quietly took the jade pouch and checked it with his divine sense before putting it into his storage pouch.
The smile on his face deepened. Seeing Ru Feng so easygoing, as the foreign imperial court expert who would be guarding Ru City in the future, he would have to deal with him frequently. With such an easygoing person, it would be even more convenient in the future.
