The people of the City Lord's Mansion who had survived in Long City were very puzzled as to why the White City Alliance's army had suddenly withdrawn and why their City Lord had returned at such a time.
However, the return of the City Lord was definitely a pleasant surprise for everyone.
The City Lord obviously hadn't told them about it. He had only asked everyone to spread the news of their return.
At the same time, City Lord Long led the experts of the Cheng Family to the City Lord's Mansion.
However, when they returned to the City Lord's Mansion, City Lord Long couldn't help but be furious.
Although the White City Alliance's army had indeed surrendered Long City and all of its troops had withdrawn from Long City, they had turned the City Lord's Mansion upside down and even found the City Lord's Mansion's treasure vault.
City Lord Long was furious when he saw the battered City Lord's Mansion and the empty treasure vault. Even though the experts of the Cheng Family were present, he still couldn't hold it in.
"Those bandits of the White City Alliance actually took away all of Long City's resources. How hateful!" City Lord Long slapped a stone wall with his palm, causing it to collapse.
It was evident how furious City Lord Long was.
"City Lord Long, this is all expected. Needless to say, my Xian Yue City is probably in the same state as your City Lord's Mansion. Hence, City Lord Long, please don't think too much about it." The Xian Yue City Lord comforted him.
After seeing the state of the City Lord's Mansion, he could almost imagine what the Xian Yue City's City Lord's Mansion would look like.
At the very least, it wouldn't be better than this place!
However, there was nothing he could do about it. The White City Alliance had suddenly attacked the Xian Yue City. Although he had taken away a lot of resources before fleeing, the Xian Yue City had been in operation for so long.
However, the Immemorial Moon City had been in operation for so long. It was impossible for him to take away all the resources in a short period of time.
He believed that City Lord Long couldn't have left all of the resources here. In fact, the City Lord's Mansion might not only have this one treasure vault. Perhaps City Lord Long was just putting on a show in front of them.
At the very least, there was more than one treasure vault in the Xian Yue City. The resources of the entire City Lord's Mansion had been divided by him.
He believed that when he returned, there would be some resources that could be spared.
However, he wouldn't expose City Lord Long. Otherwise, it would be akin to ruining his own reputation.
City Lord Zhou looked at the empty treasure vault and didn't say anything.
It didn't matter if all the resources of the City Lord's Mansion were taken away by the White City Alliance.
Even if there were still resources here, they wouldn't occupy them.
They were not that shameless. Besides, they were all experts at the Crossing Tribulation Stage of the Cheng Family.
Putting aside their current positions in the Cheng Family, even if they didn't have any positions, the Cheng Family would never mistreat them.
This was because they were already Tribulation Crossing experts.
The Cheng Family never lacked resources, so they wouldn't embezzle resources from the Tribulation Transcendence Stage cultivators.
For people of their level, it could be said that they had a lot of freedom in the Cheng family.
As long as they could protect the Cheng Family, the Cheng Family wouldn't even care about them.
What's more, in the Cheng Clan, every Crossing Tribulation Stage cultivator had the status of Clan Guardian Elder. This was enough to prove how high their status in the Cheng Clan was.
Cheng of Lord experts of resources here was. Crossing Long. Lord experts of Long Lord experts didn's Dragon City
Even if there were resources here, they might not be interested in them.
After all, there weren't many resources that were useful to Tribulation Crossing experts. Besides, most of them were extremely precious.
Even if the White City Alliance didn't plunder the small Long City, it wouldn't be able to offer many precious resources.
Moreover, they also knew that these cities had to offer tributes to the dynasty every few years.
Therefore, even if there were precious resources, they would have been plundered by the dynasty.
Therefore, the White City Alliance was just watching the show.
However, the White City Alliance was really outrageous. They destroyed most of the places, especially the City Lord's Mansion.
However, they didn't go to the extreme. If they destroyed the entire Long City when they left, it would be useless even if they took it back.
Perhaps they were afraid of the Cheng Clan's power and were afraid that they would anger the Cheng Clan if they went overboard.
After all, they didn't know what role the Cheng Clan played in this matter. They also didn't know the relationship between the Cheng Clan and these cities.
If they went overboard and aroused the Cheng Clan's dissatisfaction, they would be in big trouble.
Therefore, they only took away Long City's resources and destroyed some things, so it wasn't too serious.
Perhaps this was also because they were unwilling in their hearts.
After all, they spent so much effort to occupy these cities. In the end, they had no choice but to hand over their spoils of war because of the Cheng Clan's words.
Since that was the case, they couldn't be so obedient and obediently hand over the untouched Long City to the Cheng Clan.
Although Long City had suffered great losses this time, they had at least taken it back.
As long as the city was still there, the lost resources would always come back. It would just take some time.
"City Lord Long, since Long City has been taken back, you can handle the rest. We have to go to Xian Yue City now!" City Lord Zhou said faintly.
"Seniors, don't you want to rest before departing? Anyway, the White City Alliance won't dare to occupy Xian Yue City. It doesn't matter if we are late! "City Lord Long said.
Although the current City Lord Mansion was in a bit of a mess, he still hoped to make these people stay and build a good relationship with them.
"No need. I think the Xian Yue City Lord also wants to take back his city as soon as possible. We won't disturb you any longer. Farewell!" City Lord Zhou didn't waste any more time. After saying that, he led the Xian Yue City Lord and his 20,000 soldiers to Xian Yue City.
Seeing that City Lord Zhou and the others were so determined, City Lord Long didn't ask them to stay and could only send them out of the city.
"City Lord, it's really thanks to the Cheng Clan this time. Otherwise, we wouldn't have been able to return to Long City so quickly!" Looking at the departing figures, the deputy city lord sighed.
"Indeed, we must get closer to the Cheng Clan in the future. However, the White City Alliance is really despicable. Although Long City has been taken back, our losses are incalculable. Send people to clean up the city. "City Lord Long shook his head helplessly.
"City Lord, other problems are easy to solve. It's just that our Long City's Great City Barrier Array has been destroyed. We won't have any sense of security in the future. Should we think of a way to build another Great City Barrier Array?" The deputy city lord asked.
