"Who are you?" Ye Xiwen put away his saber and asked indifferently. He didn't feel anything.
"I'm Lin Fenghua!" The man in white introduced himself indifferently, "In Sky Thunder City, I'm the first deputy city lord!"
The man in white was just like his name. Just from his appearance, he had a peerless charm.
His speech also made people feel like they were bathing in the spring breeze, quite similar to the feeling of Sea Dragon Prince.
"Ye Xiwen, be careful of this person. I feel that he is not friendly to you!" At this time, Ye Mo's reminder appeared in Ye Xiwen's mind.
Ye Xiwen quietly sensed for a while. Sure enough, although it was very faint, Ye Xiwen still felt a faint murderous intent from him.
Because of the cultivation of the Restraining Breath Technique, Ye Xiwen was particularly sensitive to these murderous intents. Even if it was not directed at him, he could feel it immediately, let alone this kind of murderous intent.
He didn't pay too much attention just now. Now that he was reminded by Ye Mo, he immediately noticed the faint murderous intent from him.
Ye Xiwen's vigilance in his heart was immediately raised to the highest. This kind of hypocrite was the most terrifying to Ye Xiwen. It was much more difficult to deal with than those who were really vile.
Because you didn't know when he would stab you!
However, his face was still calm, as if he didn't notice the murderous intent at all. Then he just said indifferently, "So, it's Brother Lin!"
"May I know your name?" Lin Fenghua grinned and said in a gentle tone. Unfortunately, in Ye Xiwen's eyes, he had already exposed his murderous intent. He was simply smiling ferociously, without any concealment.
"Ye Xiwen!" Ye Xiwen said indifferently.
In his heart, he was planning to wait until he settled down a little, then quickly leave to find the treasure map. That was the most important thing. Everything else was not important at all, and it would also save him from unnecessary trouble.
"Brother Ye, you have good skills. I wonder if you are interested in joining our Sky Thunder City. Let's not talk about anything else, a deputy city lord position is waiting for you!" Lin Fenghua said with a smile, and didn't mention a word about Geng Tianhong and the others that Ye Xiwen had just killed.
It seemed as if these things had never happened. He had a respectful appearance, but in Ye Xiwen's eyes, he seemed even more ruthless and full of honeyed words.
However, Ye Xiwen could tell that Lin Fenghua, the first deputy city lord, had an extremely high status in the Sky Thunder City. She could even make a decision on her own to give out the position of deputy city lord.
Let's not talk about how sincere he was in recruiting him, but he had done enough.
"I'm sorry, I'm used to being alone. I'm not used to joining forces!" Ye Xiwen faintly said. He had directly blocked his path. He simply didn't want to continue using his body protection technique.
Lin Fenghua's complexion changed slightly. It seemed that she hadn't expected that Ye Xiwen would refuse so straightforwardly. One must know that this wasn't an ordinary small sea region. It was the Sky Thunder City that was established in the Sky Thunder Sea Region, which could be considered as the peak among the medium-sized sea regions. Moreover, he was the deputy city lord who was second only to one person.
This was a very attractive position for anyone. However, no one had expected that Ye Xiwen would refuse it without even thinking about it.
Although there were still large sea regions above it, there were many experts in those large sea regions. With his strength, it was impossible for him to become the deputy city lord. What was the point?
As the saying goes, it's better to be the head of a chicken than the tail of a phoenix. There was no reason for Ye Xiwen not to understand this truth.
"In that case, we won't force you. Today's matter is our fault. I hope you can forgive us!" Lin Fenghua said while cupping his hands.
Lin Fenghua's behavior immediately aroused the goodwill of the other sea clans who were watching. At least, he looked gentle like a jade, which was his current image.
On the contrary, Ye Xiwen seemed like a rash youth who didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. He actually rejected Lin Fenghua's invitation.
"City Lord Lin is still so courteous. Even I can't help but admire such an outstanding person!"
"Yeah, what do you mean by the Ancient Leadership Style? This is the Ancient Leadership Style!"
"That Ye Xiwen really doesn't know what's good for him. He actually rejected the position of deputy city lord. I really don't know if his brain is caught in the door!"
That was the position of deputy city lord.
If it were any of them, they would laugh until they fell to the ground!
However, with their cultivation, it was impossible for them to be invited to become deputy city lords. There were many people like them in Sky Thunder City.
Ye Xiwen didn't change because of Lin Fenghua's behavior. He just said, "In that case, I will give you face. I will not care about this matter. But if there is a next time, don't blame the long saber in my hand for being merciless!"
"That's for sure, for sure!" Lin Fenghua said with a smile, as if he was not angered by the rash youth Ye Xiwen at all.
Seeing Ye Xiwen disappear at the corner of the street, the surrounding onlookers also dispersed one after another. Although in their opinion, Lin Fenghua was courteous and approachable, but in any case, he was the first deputy city lord, so who would dare to stay and watch him?
When everyone left, Lin Fenghua's face suddenly sank.
"You let him go just like that?" Huang Shuyi looked coldly in the direction where Ye Xiwen left. Since he embarked on the martial arts path, he had never been so embarrassed. In the short time that he fought with Ye Xiwen just now, he was completely suppressed by Ye Xiwen. It could even be said that he had no power to fight back.
Ye Xiwen had made him lose face in public. One could imagine how intense the hatred in his heart was towards Ye Xiwen.
"What else can I do? The city lord is still in closed-door cultivation. After all, he hasn't come out yet. There is still some time left. That kid is very strange. Although he doesn't seem to have even reached the Half-step Law Phase Realm, if we really fight, I may not be able to kill him!" Lin Fenghua faintly said. He felt an extremely dangerous aura coming from Ye Xiwen's body.
Of course, he didn't think that he couldn't beat Ye Xiwen. At most, he felt that there was no way to kill Ye Xiwen easily.
And his character had always been planning before taking action. He would never do things that he was not sure of. He knew Ye Xiwen's character very well.
He was ruthless and vengeful. He was definitely not a broad-minded person. In other words, if such a person was really offended, then there was only one way.
It was to kill him with lightning speed. This kind of future trouble must not be left alive.
If he made a move just now, although he was confident that he could defeat Ye Xiwen, if he couldn't kill him, then what was the point of everything?
"Even you?" Huang Shuyi was slightly surprised. Although they were all deputy city lords, he knew that Lin Fenghua in front of him was the only first deputy city lord. His strength was more than a level higher than the deputy city lords.
He had already steadily entered the Half-step Law Phase Realm Middle-stage. In Sky Thunder City, his strength was second only to the city lord who was in closed-door cultivation.
In Sky Thunder Sea Region, he was also one of the top geniuses of the younger generation!
"Even so, we can also gather others to surround and kill him here. This kind of person is definitely a future trouble. We can't let him live for long!" Huang Shuyi said.
"I know, this kind of person is vengeful. You just offended him. On the surface, it seems like nothing happened, but you don't know how jealous he is. I don't agree to offend this kind of person, but since you have offended him, you have to eliminate him!" Lin Fenghua squinted his eyes and said. The killing intent in his eyes was no longer concealed and suppressed. It bloomed directly.
He had a good understanding of Ye Xiwen's character. Such a person should not be easily offended. However, since he had offended him, he had to eliminate the root of the problem and not leave any future trouble.
"But this matter needs to be considered for a long time. We must have a complete plan and kill him in one fell swoop. We can't let him escape. Otherwise, we may not stop until one of us is dead!" Lin Fenghua said.
"En, but I feel that this person is a little strange. It feels more like …" Huang Shuyi squinted his eyes and said, "More like those humans. In short, he doesn't look like our sea clan!"
"This is nothing. His aura is indeed the aura of our sea clan. However, it might be related to staying with those humans for a long time. Humph, so many sea clans and humans have been living together for a long time. So much so that they have given birth to some bastards with impure bloodlines. They have already fallen into depravity!" Lin Fenghua coldly snorted and said.
Huang Shuyi nodded and said. It was obvious that he was very much in agreement.
"Go and get ready. There will be a big auction tomorrow. Whether you can get something good or not will depend on yourself!" Lin Fenghua indifferently said.
"En!" Huang Shuyi didn't continue speaking. Their relationship wasn't that good. In the Sky Thunder Sea Region, they were still rivals. It was precisely because they had been rivals for so many years that he knew Lin Fenghua's true colors even better than before.
They seemed to be very close now. However, Ye Xiwen hadn't truly relaxed for a moment.
It was like a beautiful poisonous tongue. No one knew when it would bite you. Moreover, it was a venomous snake. Once you were stabbed by it, it would be an extremely fatal matter.
Ye Xiwen walked past the corner of the street. He turned around and disappeared into the crowd. In his mind, he was talking to Ye Mo.
"Ye Xiwen, those two people have bad intentions towards you. Moreover, they are very likely to stab you in the back. I don't know what kind of conspiracy they are plotting!" Ye Mo said.
"I know, but it's fine if I don't know. Now that I know, it's impossible for them to succeed. I didn't make a move just now because I'm afraid of the City Lord who hasn't shown himself. Otherwise, those two wouldn't be a match for me at all. That Lin Fenghua thinks that she's hidden well, but she's just seeking death!" Ye Xiwen sneered and said, "I don't have time to tangle with them. If they don't know what's good for them, then I will send them on their way!"
