Peerless City!
The construction of cultivators was very fast. Most of the buildings that had been destroyed by Zhong Shan's bandits had been repaired and rebuilt by the people of the city. It was just that the original buildings seemed to have been moved and were very different from before.
Shui Wuhen was training and dismissing soldiers in the military drill ground.
Zhong Shan was constantly studying the geography of the surroundings.
War? There was no hurry. One could not chop firewood without sharpening the knife! One could not fight without training soldiers!
Peerless City was developing in an orderly manner. Zhong Shan's army was also growing rapidly.
In the past two days, Nian Youyou had run off to who knows where. Ah Da and Zhi Huo also did not bother Zhong Shan for no reason and gave Zhong Shan a rare moment of peace.
On this day, an old man walked over from the south of Peerless City. He was an old man who looked incomparably demonic.
The old man was dressed in a colorful robe. His hair was slightly white and his face was smooth. However, there were deep eyeliner around his eyes. He looked very demonic.
Waving his colorful sleeves, the old man revealed a smile and muttered to himself, "I finally have a successor! It's really difficult to take in a disciple. I waited for more than ten years and still had to help her find something. However, she finally agreed! "
The old man was in a very good mood. He swaggered towards the gate of Peerless City.
The old man's strange behavior was noticed by the city gate guards early on. Immediately, two guards rushed forward and asked, "Who are you?"
"A little kid dares to block my way? I'm in a good mood today, so I won't argue with you. I'm here to find your City Lord. Tell your City Lord to come see me! "The old man said very directly.
"How dare you!" One of the city gate guards said angrily.
The angry shout caused the old man to frown and glare at the guard.
With a glare, the guard's face suddenly turned black and he fell dizzy. He fainted strangely.
It was too strange, too strange. The other guard immediately shouted, "Men!"
With a loud shout, the guard picked up the guard beside him and was about to run. However, when he picked up the person beside him, his face turned black and he fainted.
A trace of disdain appeared on the old man's face.
After the guard shouted just now, a large number of city guards surrounded the old man. In the blink of an eye, the citizens at the city gate were cleared away, leaving only the army to surround the old man.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Zhong Shan was looking at the map.
"Marshal, Marshal, it's not good!" A general rushed into the hall and said.
Zhong Shan frowned and looked at the general who rushed in anxiously.
"What's wrong? Speak slowly! "Zhong Shan.
........................... "The general said a little...............
"What did he do?" Zhong Shan frowned.
.....................
"Oh? Just a glance? "Zhong Shan frowned.
..............
.............................
. "He wants to see Marshal!" The general said.
"Did anyone die?" Zhong Shan asked again.
"I don't know. Nearly a thousand people have fainted. No one dares to check, because if they do, they will be infected and faint immediately!" The general said.
"Okay. Inform Fiery and Ah Da. I'll go take a look." Zhong Shan thought for a moment.
"Yes!" The general immediately replied.
Outside the southern gate of Wushuang City.
In the middle of the empty space, the strange old man stood. Around him, nearly two thousand people had fainted. Even two Nascent Soul experts had fallen to the ground.
Outside the perimeter, more guards were waiting. All the Star Piercing Arrows were nocked. The tips of the arrows were pointed at the strange old man in the center. Once the general gave the order, countless Star Piercing Arrows would shoot at the old man.
However, to be a general, strength was not enough. More importantly, he had to be calm.
After this round of arrows, the two thousand brothers on the ground would really die. Moreover, this old man had an extraordinary background. Could these arrows really deal with him? He did not kill him at the beginning. It was better to wait for the Marshal to make a decision!
"This old man's time is limited. Tell your City Lord to come see me quickly!" The old man said impatiently.
"Senior, please wait a moment. This one has already sent someone to report. There will be news soon." The general leading the troops comforted him.
"Okay." The old man nodded.
At this moment, Zhong Shan flew to the city gate with Ah Da and Fiery. As for Nian Youyou, she had yet to return. No one knew what she was doing.
"Marshal!" The nearby guards immediately called out.
At this moment, Shui Wuhen, Liu Wushuang, and Zhao Chuan also received the news and flew over.
"Marshal!" They bowed respectfully to Zhong Shan who was walking towards the city gate.
"Okay." Zhong Shan nodded and walked at the front.
Fiery and Ah Da guarded him on his left and right. The others followed behind them and walked out of the long passage through the city gate.
When they reached the city gate, the soldiers parted, allowing Zhong Shan to see the strange old man at the center.
"Sir, that is the West Poison Sovereign, a peak Ultimate King realm expert. His true strength is not his strength, but his poisons. In the past, for revenge, he single-handedly poisoned an entire city of people." Ah Da quickly reported the old man's information to Zhong Shan.
This old man clearly had a great reputation.
The West Poison Sovereign? Poisoned an entire city of people? What a vicious heart, what powerful poisons. As expected of the West Poison Sovereign.
However, that was not the main point. The main point was that Zhong Shan had seen this West Poison Sovereign before.
On the way from the Mizar Sect to Peerless City, he had seen a little girl riding a dragon. She had been escorted by a large number of flood dragons, and the West Poison Sovereign had followed behind her. He had begged her to become his disciple, but in the end, she had run away, and the West Poison Sovereign had followed her.
It was him?
When Zhong Shan appeared, the soldiers on both sides respectfully parted, allowing this group of Peerless City's leaders to pass through.
Not far away, the West Poison Sovereign also looked at this group of people strangely.
The West Poison Sovereign had recognized Zhong Shan's strength with a single glance. Seventh layer Golden Core realm? But this seventh layer Golden Core realm was being protected by a group of peerless experts, and they even seemed to be his subordinates?
"Senior West Poison Sovereign, we meet again!" Zhong Shan was the first to greet him with a smile.
Zhong Shan's words caught the West Poison Sovereign off guard. Have we met before? Is there a need for such a relationship?
"Who are you?" The West Poison Sovereign frowned and asked.
"Seven years ago, I followed Elder Zi Xun of the Seven Stars Hall to the East Sea. At that time, the West Poison Sovereign did not hesitate to chase after the dragons to save his beloved disciple. I wonder if she is doing well now?" Zhong Shan smiled and said.
Although what Zhong Shan said wasn't the case, it sounded more comfortable. At the very least, the West Poison Monarch felt comfortable listening to it.
With this, the West Poison Sovereign indeed remembered. Although he did not remember Zhong Shan, Zi Xun remembered. After all, the strong were always more memorable.
However, the West Poison Sovereign was not interested in getting close to Zhong Shan, and he did not want to.
"Where is your city lord?" The West Poison Sovereign asked directly.
"This humble one is Zhong Shan, temporarily in charge of Peerless City. I am in charge of the city's military and political affairs. I have the authority to decide anything in Peerless City. If senior has any questions, you can tell me." Zhong Shan said confidently.
"You?" The West Poison Sovereign's eyes widened in disbelief.
Although these people were respectful to Zhong Shan, the Daluo Heaven Empire could not be so childish. How could they leave Peerless City in the hands of a Golden Core realm cultivator?
But seeing the other generals and officials' expressions, the West Poison Sovereign could only accept this fact with a frown.
"I want something from you!" The West Poison Sovereign said directly.
Looking at the West Poison Sovereign, Zhong Shan smiled faintly. Poison, poison expert? This was also a type of strange person. If used well, it could be of great use. The current Zhong Shan collected all the resources in the world. He did not want soldiers, spirit stones, magic treasures, or natural treasures. What he wanted was talents. Because Zhong Shan had learned a long time ago, what was the most expensive thing?
The things that could not be bought with money were the most expensive! Soldiers could be recruited with money. Spirit stones were money. Magic treasures could also be bought. Natural treasures could also be bought. No matter how expensive it was, there was a price. But talents were priceless!
"This humble one has admired senior for a long time. If senior has something to ask of me, I will naturally do my best to help. Why don't you come to my residence and slowly tell me what you need?" Zhong Shan said with a smile.
"Eh?" The West Poison Sovereign was stunned.
Because the West Poison Sovereign did not expect Zhong Shan's answer. The threats and promises that he had prepared in advance suddenly exploded like a bubble. A strange feeling spread through his body.
Go to his residence? Looking at these people, the West Poison Sovereign was not the least bit afraid!
"Very well!" The West Poison Sovereign nodded.
Zhong Shan then waved his hand, and the soldiers who had raised their bows put away their arrows. Because of the probing words from before, Zhong Shan already understood the West Poison Sovereign's attitude. At the very least, the West Poison Sovereign was reasonable.
The West Poison Sovereign also saw Zhong Shan's actions. Seeing the soldiers listening to Zhong Shan's words, he knew that Zhong Shan was not lying. Nodding, he stepped toward Zhong Shan.
The generals were somewhat worried, but Zhong Shan simply waved his hand at them.
When the West Poison Sovereign was close enough, Zhong Shan said, "Senior, my subordinates, look …!"
Zhong Shan pointed at the two thousand people on the ground.
With his back to the poisoned soldiers on the ground, the West Poison Sovereign did not turn around. Instead, he waved his sleeve behind him, causing a breeze to blow into the field.
"You dare to speak rudely to me. If this daddy was like before, you would already be a pile of bones!" The West Poison Sovereign left behind these words.
"Senior, please!" Zhong Shan directly ignored the West Poison Sovereign's arrogant words.
"Okay." The West Poison Sovereign nodded and followed Zhong Shan into Matchless City.
After they entered the city, the two thousand people on the ground slowly sat up as if they had been detoxified, each of them drenched in cold sweat. Clearly, they had been badly frightened by the West Poison Sovereign. (To be continued, if you want to know what will happen next, please go to www.qidian.com, there are more chapters.
