In the end, the Xian Yue City Lord and City Lord Long left for the secular world with their four attendants.
After leaving Hong City, the two of them started chatting.
"Xian Yue City Lord, do you really have a way to get the Cheng Family to send reinforcements to Hong City?" City Lord Long asked.
Along the way, to be honest, he had been thinking about how to discuss with the Cheng Family when the time came!
However, no matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't think of a way to convince the Cheng Family.
Merely handing over the control of the entrance to the Cheng Family would be impossible to convince them.
"I don't know, but we have no other way. In fact, given the ferocity of the White City Alliance's army, I don't think we can win even if reinforcements from other cities arrive.
Now, apart from the Dynasty behind us, the only one who can resist the White City Alliance's army is the Cheng Family.
However, the Dynasty clearly doesn't intend to help us, and even if they wanted to, it would be too late now.
However, the Cheng Family is very close to Hong City, and as long as all of their people arrive, it will only take them an hour to pass through the entrance.
Therefore, we must find a way to invite the Cheng Family no matter what.
Moreover, our city has already fallen into the hands of the White City Alliance.
If we want to take back our city, we can only rely on the Cheng Family. Therefore, we must succeed this time! "The Xian Yue City Lord's expression was solemn as he shook his head helplessly.
To be honest, although the plan was perfect, whether or not it would succeed was completely different.
Most importantly, they didn't have any friendship with the Cheng Family to begin with. If they had more or less some dealings with the Cheng Family, they would have more confidence.
They had never dealt with the Cheng Family before, and they didn't know the Cheng Family's style of doing things. How could they be confident in inviting the Cheng Family's reinforcements?
"No matter what? I'm afraid this is a bit too serious. Now, we need them to help Hong City repel the White City Alliance's army.
If we want the Cheng Family to help us take back the city, I'm afraid they won't agree to it so easily! "City Lord Long's mood was also somewhat heavy.
In fact, whether Hong City lived or died had nothing to do with them!
Even if Hong City couldn't be saved, he didn't care. What he cared about was whether he could take back Long City.
After all, even if nothing happened to Hongcheng, nothing would happen to him. In the past few days, he realized that Deputy Castellan Meng had a lot of prestige in Hongcheng.
Moreover, all the power of war was now in the hands of Deputy City Lord Meng. It was simply impossible for him to establish his prestige in this war.
Therefore, he no longer harbored any thoughts about his previous plan. He just wanted to take back Long City and be the city lord of Long City.
As for annexing cities, that was just a beautiful dream.
However, what he didn't know was that the Xian Yue City Lord had only been deceiving him back then. If it was so easy to become the City Lord of the Alliance, then someone from their city would have succeeded a long time ago.
Of course, if he hadn't said that, he wouldn't have left Long City so easily!
If he refused to leave Long City at that time, wouldn't the Xian Yue City Lord be finished as well?
It was just that City Lord Long still didn't understand this principle.
However, there was one thing that City Lord Long understood very well. If he wanted the Cheng Family to help him recapture Long City, or even Xian Yue City, then he had to first rescue Hong City and repel the White City Alliance from Hong City.
Then, they would be able to take back Long City from the White City Alliance's army and finally the Xian Yue City.
But in this way, it seemed that there were already three things.
They wanted the Cheng Family to help them accomplish these three things, but they only took out the control of the entrance in exchange. The Cheng Family probably wouldn't be so stupid as to agree to such unequal conditions.
"That depends on whether the Cheng Family has more requests. Therefore, we must raise the value and significance of this entrance to ask for help from the Cheng Family this time.
Only in this way will we be able to offer lower conditions. Otherwise, with the current strength and wealth of the Cheng Clan, I'm afraid that we really can't afford to satisfy them! "The Xian Yue City Lord reminded them.
In this world, let alone the secular world, even in the entire Cultivation World, there were probably not many forces that were richer than the Cheng Family.
If there really were, then the dynasty behind them was definitely one of them.
After all, according to their understanding, the forces behind all the cities were dynasties. Therefore, the tributes handed over by the cities in the world went into the pockets of the dynasties.
This was simply the same as the mission mode that the Cheng Family came up with.
In any case, others were collecting resources for them, and they were just waiting for wealth.
Therefore, they really didn't know how to satisfy such a rich force to raise conditions to the 'poor' like them.
They could only infinitely magnify the value of this entrance. This way, they could make the Cheng Family as few requests as possible.
City Lord Long sighed and said, "That's right, even if the Cheng Family has already seen through everything."
The Xian Yue City Lord said, "Don't say so much. Time waits for no one. If we come back late, Hong City will really be breached by the White City Alliance. At that time, the Cheng Family will probably increase their bargaining chips again. Therefore, we have to find a way to get the Cheng Family to send troops to drive away the White City Alliance's army as soon as possible! "
"Alright! There's no time to lose, let's hurry to the secular world! "City Lord Long nodded.
With the experience of going to the secular world once, the six of them didn't have to spend much effort to enter the secular world.
Compared to the chaos and crisis in their other cities, the small Yungui City was still very prosperous. This stark contrast made the six of them sigh with emotion again and again!
"If we weren't the lords of a city, perhaps coming to the secular world would really be a good choice!" City Lord Long walked on the extraordinarily lively street and listened to the unceasing cries of businessmen. At this moment, he felt that the small Yungui City was a paradise on earth.
"Who said it wasn't! Otherwise, how could the Cheng Family be so powerful! Although our city was once prosperous, how could it compare to this place?
It has to be said that the Cheng Family's methods are truly powerful. In just a few years, they've developed the secular world so well. I wonder how powerful the Cheng Family will be in the future! "The Xian Yue City Lord also sighed with emotion.
