Yungui City's City Lord Mansion!
"City Lord! The City Lords of Long City and Xian Yue City from the Cultivation World have come to visit. I wonder if we should invite them in? "A servant came into the courtyard and said to the City Lord.
"Cultivation World? Did they say why they came to visit? "Zhou Heng frowned.
Their Cheng Family had never had any friendship with these cities in the Cultivation World. Why would the City Lords of these two cities suddenly come to visit?
"They have to tell you personally, City Lord!" The servant replied.
Zhou Heng thought for a moment and said, "I see. Invite them to the main hall. I will meet them there!"
Although he didn't know why they suddenly came to see him, even if they didn't have any friendship, they were guests. He couldn't be neglectful.
In the past, before the Cheng Family or before the Cheng Family rose to power, these City Lords were indeed high and mighty figures.
But now it was different. Although he joined the Cheng Family later, the family head thought highly of him and made him the City Lord of Yungui City. His identity and status were completely different from before.
Long City and Xian Yue City were both second-class cities in the Cultivation World. Although his Yungui City couldn't even compare to a third-class city in the Cultivation World in terms of scale, the prosperity of the Yungui City was something that many cities in the Cultivation World couldn't compare to due to the continuous growth of the Cheng Family.
Therefore, he didn't care about these cities in the Cultivation World.
Moreover, he was the City Lord of this Yungui City. In his heart, this Yungui City was naturally the best place.
Zhou Heng came to the main hall and just sat down when he saw the servant come in with two people. They were City Lord Long and Xian Yue City Lord.
As for their four attendants, they were naturally waiting outside the hall.
"I am the City Lord of Long City, Long Wen. Greetings, City Lord Zhou!"
"I am the City Lord of Xian Yue City, Xian Ling. Greetings, City Lord Zhou! The two of us came uninvited and disturbed you. Please forgive us, City Lord Zhou! "When the two of them saw the people in the hall, they hurriedly went forward and greeted.
"The two distinguished guests are too polite. Please take a seat and serve tea!" Zhou Heng smiled and invited them.
"Thank you, City Lord Zhou!" City Lord Long was very grateful to see the steaming hot tea being served.
Even though the two of them hadn't stated their intentions, City Lord Zhou didn't show them any displeasure either, so they let out a sigh of relief.
They were afraid that City Lord Zhou wouldn't even want to see them. That would be troublesome.
"Please have some tea!" City Lord Zhou said with a smile.
"Please!" the two of them replied.
"I'm a straightforward person and I don't like to beat around the bush. I hope the two of you won't take offense. May I know why you have come all the way here? "Zhou Heng went straight to the point.
It was also the first time the two of them had met. It was impossible for them to sit down and reminisce like friends. That would be too hypocritical. He was also not so bored as to reminisce with two strangers.
"City Lord Zhou's words are too serious. It was the two of us who were rude. Actually, the two of us came here today to ask City Lord Zhou for help! "The Xian Yue City Lord quickly put down the tea and said apologetically.
"Ask this Zhou for help? What difficulties did the two City Lords encounter? Please speak clearly! "Zhou Heng frowned.
He was a little confused. The Cheng family had never had any friendship with the City Lords of the World of Cultivation. Even if they wanted to ask for help, shouldn't they look for the City Lords of other cities?
Why did they come to the secular world?
However, he had heard some things these days. Many people in the small city of Yungui were unwilling to go to the World of Cultivation from here.
Moreover, even the nearby cities such as Hong City had been sealed. It was even said that a war had broken out in these cities.
Therefore, many people knew that it was too dangerous to go to the World of Cultivation from the small city of Yungui.
However, although he had heard that something had happened in these cities, he didn't know the details.
However, now that the City Lord of Long City and the City Lord of Xian Yue City had come to the small city of Yungui to ask for help, it was most likely related to these things.
Regardless of whether he would help them or not, he should at least find out what had happened in these cities.
"To tell you the truth, City Lord Zhou, we are indeed in some trouble now. It's like this …" So, the City Lord of Xian Yue City told him about the White City Alliance's attack during this time.
They had come to ask for help, especially the two of them who hoped that the Cheng family could help them take back their cities. Naturally, these things could not be hidden from them.
"So that's what happened. In that case, the White City Alliance will soon take over Hong City?" After hearing the explanation of this matter, Zhou Heng suddenly came to a realization. He finally understood what had happened in the World of Cultivation these days.
"That's right. Hong City is now in danger, and it may be taken over by the White City Alliance at any time. Therefore, I was ordered by the Deputy City Lord of Hong City to come to your city to seek help. I hope that City Lord Zhou can save Hong City from disaster!" The City Lord of Xian Yue City pleaded.
"City Lords, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, right? Let's not talk about the friendship between Yungui City and you. Let's talk about this matter itself. It's a matter between our respective cities.
What's more, you're a force from the cultivation world, while my Yungui City is only a small city in the secular world. Even if I'm willing, I don't think my family head will allow me to do so! "Zhou Heng said.
Although he had finally figured out what had happened in Hong City, this matter had nothing to do with them. There was no need for him to get involved in other people's war at all.
"City Lord Zhou, I know that we didn't have much contact in the past. However, we all know that a friend in need is a friend indeed.
As long as City Lord Zhou can help Hong City and even our Long City and Xian Yue City get through this crisis, we will definitely treat City Lord Zhou as a friend in times of need and a friend of life and death.
If City Lord Zhou needs any help in the future, we will definitely do our best to help. "City Lord Long couldn't help but feel a little anxious when he saw that City Lord Zhou had already expressed his refusal.
The only one who could save them now was the Cheng Family.
If the Cheng Clan were to turn a blind eye to their plight, all of their cities and territories would belong to the White City Alliance.
"City Lords, it's not that I don't want to help you, but my Yungui City doesn't have many military forces.
Although I'm the City Lord of Yungui City, I don't have the authority to gather military forces to help the World of Cultivation!
Unless our Family Lord gives the order, if the Cheng family or even the Family Lord finds out that I've mobilized troops without authorization, I will lose my head.
