Qing Hai looked at the selfless expressions of these people, but his heart was already clear. How could he not know what they were thinking?
Perhaps Cheng Yu was really worried about his life, but he knew these people too well. Cowardice and fear of death weren't just words. They vividly displayed the meaning of these words.
However, he did not say much. Although he looked down on their behavior, he had to admit that they were right about one thing.
Cyanwood City could not be without a leader. If they and Elder Qin were to be killed, Cyanwood City would become a place without a leader. Then, Ru City or the Howling Sea would be able to trample on Cyanwood City as they pleased.
Although the commoners in the West City worried him, he could not sacrifice the entire Cyanwood City for them.
So, he looked at everyone and said, "I understand what you mean. I won't go!"
"City Lord, this is truly a wise decision. I believe that as long as you are here, Cyanwood City will never be taken away by Ru City! When everyone heard Qing Hai finally gave them the answer they wanted, they immediately felt relieved.
Although they said so much, they were still afraid that Qing Hai would not change his mind. If that was the case, there was no other way.
However, although I will not go to the West City, I still need to know the situation there. Guards! After Qing Hai finished speaking, he shouted. Immediately, a guard appeared in front of him.
City Lord!
Go to the West City and ask around. What is the situation there? When you get the news, immediately come back and tell me! Qing Hai said.
Yes! The guard cupped his fist and immediately disappeared from everyone's sight.
City Lord, are we not going back to the City Lord Mansion now? When they saw that Qing Hai was going to wait here, they immediately became unhappy.
After all, there was still danger here. If those people suddenly came back, wouldn't they all be in trouble?
Although I am not going to the West City, I can't let those murderers go back. They come and go as they please. Do they really think that there is no one in Cyanwood City? Qing Hai said loudly.
Although the strength of those people might be really terrifying, he also knew very well that the Dragon Eagle was not as simple as they thought. As far as he knew, there were still a few experts at the Crossing Calamity Stage there.
However, even though he had been in Cyanwood City for so many years, he had never seen it before. Although he had never seen them before, he had understood a little from Elder Qin. That was, there were indeed existences in Cyanwood City that were more powerful than him.
Therefore, even though these people were stronger than Elder Qin, they still might not be able to get away with it. At this time, he didn't believe that these experts wouldn't appear. Otherwise, what was the point of them staying in Cyanwood City?
However, this time, Cheng Yu didn't stand out to persuade Qing Hai because he was very clear of the ins and outs of this matter. This was a scheme that he had set up.
More importantly, even if they left this place, no one would do anything to them. So even if Qing Hai wanted to stay here until dawn, he wouldn't care.
"City Lord, it's really dangerous for you to be like this. A late stage Great Ascension Stage expert isn't as simple as you think. If they want to kill us, it's a piece of cake!" However, Cheng Yu wasn't anxious, but Guest Elder Tang at the side was somewhat anxious.
They had no idea what was in Qing Hai's head. Even at this time, he was still trying to save his face. If those late stage Great Ascension Stage experts were to return, all of them would die.
"Mr. Tang, didn't Mr. Hu exchange a punch with Zhou Ping? But isn't he still standing here in one piece? Besides, Mr. Tang, you are still in the initial stage Great Ascension Stage. Could it be that you can't even receive a punch from Zhou Ping? "When Qing Hai saw how cowardly these people were, his complexion turned somewhat unsightly.
Previously, he had listened to their advice. It was fine if they didn't go to the Western City. But now, they didn't even dare to defend the retreat route of those attackers. He truly had no idea what kind of people he had invited back then.
Now, he was somewhat regretful. Was it a mistake for him to invite such a group of guests? Perhaps, he should chase away all these guest officials and only leave behind people like Cheng Yu, who had the courage and responsibility and was truly considerate of him by his side.
But when he heard Qing Hai's words, Guest Elder Tang's mouth trembled. His face twitched. Exchanging a punch with a late stage Great Ascension Stage expert, he really didn't dare to do so.
Because he was very clear that even though they were both in the Great Ascension Stage, the initial stage and late stage Great Ascension Stage were not on the same level. A late stage Great Ascension Stage expert could easily kill a few or even dozens of early stage Great Ascension Stage experts.
However, even if he didn't dare to do so, he couldn't lose his face in front of Cheng Yu. So, he opened his mouth and said, "City Lord, sometimes, what you see might not necessarily be true. Mr. Hu's strength might be not bad, but compared to a late stage Great Ascension Stage expert, it's really insignificant.
Although everyone said that Mr. Hu had exchanged a punch with a late stage Great Ascension Stage expert, I still don't believe it. Since Mr. Hu is so powerful, when those late stage Great Ascension Stage experts arrive, can you show us your fist technique? "
He was very clear of his own strength. He knew that it was impossible for him to exchange a punch with a late stage Great Ascension Stage expert. However, he also didn't believe that Cheng Yu had really exchanged a punch with Zhou Ping.
That day, he didn't appear at the city gate. Therefore, he didn't witness the miraculous scene. However, he also knew that Cheng Yu had indeed exchanged a punch with Zhou Ping because a lot of people had said that they had seen it with their own eyes. Even the guest elders had seen it with their own eyes.
However, he didn't believe that Cheng Yu had truly exchanged a punch with Zhou Ping. It must have been Cheng Yu using some shameful methods. Otherwise, how could a late stage Great Ascension Stage expert withstand a punch from a late stage Great Ascension Stage expert? Even if the punch didn't kill Cheng Yu, he would at least be beaten half to death.
"Guest Elder Tang, that day, this City Lord had personally seen Mr. Hu exchange a punch with Zhou Ping. Do you think that it's fake?" Qing Hai's complexion turned even uglier.
He felt that it was fine if Guest Elder Tang didn't have the guts, but now, he was even doubting Cheng Yu's strength. What a joke.
"City Lord has misunderstood. I don't think that it's fake. After all, so many people had seen it. I just feel that what everyone saw wasn't that miraculous. For example, that Zhou Ping didn't even have the intention to kill Mr. Hu. He just casually brandished a punch. He didn't even use half of his strength.
If that's the case, so what if Mr. Hu exchanged a punch with him? "Guest Elder Tang didn't care about the City Lord's complexion as he continued to speak.
