Coming out of the mansion, Captain Ha stopped Xiao Bing, who was about to go home, and said with a gloomy smile, "Let me ask you, what did the governor say to you just now?"
Xiao Bing told the truth, "So it was Captain Ha. Just now, the governor asked me to work for him in the mansion, but I refused. I think I angered the governor and he said that he doesn't want to see me in front of him anymore. I hope Captain Ha can put in a good word for me."
A smile appeared on Ha Sheng's face, "The governor's temper has always been like this. But if you want me to put in a good word for you, I'm afraid it's wishful thinking. Once it's someone that the governor hates, anyone who mentions it will anger the governor, even I don't dare."
Xiao Bing sighed, "Alas, if that's the case, once I work for Captain Ha in the future, I must appear in front of the governor often, right? I don't know if it will bring trouble to Captain Ha. "
Ha Sheng's expression changed slightly, and then he grinned, "What you said makes sense. It seems that the matter between you and me needs to be carefully considered."
Xiao Bing said helplessly, "I didn't expect it to become like this. I was going to promise Captain Ha, but this happened. Captain Ha, you won't blame me, right?"
"It doesn't matter. Let's put aside the matter between us for now. I'll put in a good word for you if I have the chance in the future. When the city lord's anger dissipates, you can come back and follow me. But remember, when that time comes, you can only be my subordinate. If you dare to side with someone else, be careful of the Zhuo father and daughter's lives."
Xiao Bing hurriedly said in fear and trepidation, "I know, I know."
"Well, you go back first."
Xiao Bing rolled his eyes and whispered, "Well … Captain Ha."
"Yes?" Ha Sheng was about to leave when he heard Xiao Bing calling him. He stopped and looked back at him.
Xiao Bing whispered, "When Captain Gao brought me here today, he talked about you."
"Talked about me?" Ha Sheng immediately showed a threatening look, "What did he talk about? Tell me quickly. If you hide anything, I will kill the Zhuo father and daughter. "
Xiao Bing whispered, "Let's go further."
Ha Ha Sheng nodded and followed Xiao Bing. The further they walked, the more remote it became. Finally, he became a little impatient and said, "If you have something to say, just say it here. What did he say about me?"
Xiao Bing turned around and looked at Ha Ha Sheng. He chuckled and said, "Captain Gao didn't say anything. It was I who wanted Captain Ha Sheng to come with me."
Ha Sheng was furious. His eyes revealed some killing intent as he said coldly, "If you can't give me a reason, I can still deal with the Zhuo father and daughter and kill you as well, even if you're already a noble on the blood list. How dare you make fun of me! "
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "Captain Ha, don't be angry. Let me finish. Actually, I'm not making fun of you, Captain Ha. There's a reason why I lured you here. "
"What's the reason?" Harsheng was getting more and more impatient.
Xiao Bing smiled and said, "To kill you!"
After that, Xiao Bing rushed to the front of Ha Sheng. Ha Sheng never thought that Xiao Bing would have the guts to fight him. He immediately lost the initiative. Moreover, Xiao Bing could use the power of the Void-breaking Realm now. His strength was already above Ha Sheng's. When Ha Sheng was about to retreat, Xiao Bing had already grabbed his neck and grinned, "I hate it when people threaten me!"
After that, with a crack, Ha Sheng's neck was directly broken. Xiao Bing threw his body on the grass and snorted coldly. He looked around and made sure that there were no traces left. Then he quickly ran away.
Xiao Bing did not intend to kill Ha Ha Sheng at first. But seeing that Ha Ha Sheng had repeatedly threatened him with the lives of the Zhuo family's father and daughter, Xiao Bing was worried that the Zhuo family's father and daughter would be in danger after he left. So he simply killed Ha Ha Sheng on the spot.
After killing Ha Sheng, Xiao Bing quietly returned home. In fact, he also considered whether he would be discovered. But his strength was already known to these people. He was at the primary stage of Void-breaking Realm, while Ha Sheng was at the middle stage. In any case, he was definitely no match for Ha Sheng. Moreover, Xiao Bing basically killed Ha Sheng in an instant. Only someone who was far more powerful than God Ha Sheng could do this. So even if they thought of him at first, they would immediately rule him out.
One could survive a disaster caused by God, but one could not survive a disaster caused by oneself. This was Ha Sheng's fate.
After returning home, Xiao Bing saw Captain Gao chatting with Zhuo Han in the yard. Seeing Xiao Bing coming in, Captain Gao smiled and said, "You're back."
"Well, yes. I accidentally offended the governor just now …" Xiao Bing deliberately observed Captain Gao's reaction when he said this. He found that Captain Gao's attitude was actually very indifferent. He was not nervous at all.
Gao Shun smiled and said, "The governor's character is inherently volatile. Even if you offended him, he will forget it in a day since he did not kill you. Don't worry about it. This time, I came here for another matter. I know that you are worried about the father and daughter's safety, so I specially arranged a residence for them in Tianshui City. They will live directly in the governor's mansion. But this matter must be kept secret. Otherwise, even I will be implicated."
This time, Xiao Bing was really shocked. Although he had long seen that Gao Shun did not actually give up on trying to rope him in, he did not expect Gao Shun to pay such a high price.
Previously, Xiao Bing had guessed that Gao Shun might not be sincere about this governor. Because when he mentioned Ghost Lord, Gao Shun seemed to hide some dissatisfaction towards Ghost Lord. Although he hid it very well, Xiao Bing could still see it. After all, this was a hidden matter after all, and it was not convenient to say it directly. But now, Gao Shun had arranged for Xiao Bing and Zhuo Han to live in the governor's mansion of another city. This almost made it clear that Xiao Bing had a secret relationship with another governor. If Ghost Lord knew about this, he would even see Xiao Bing as a traitor. No wonder he said that even he would be implicated.
If it was a favor, it was a little too much.
Xiao Bing smiled bitterly, "Captain Gao, isn't this favor a little too much? I don't know how to repay it."
Gao Shun smiled and said, "I don't need you to repay me. You are a talent of our Devil World. The revival of the Devil World needs young people like you. When we break out of the seal in the future, we also need people like you to charge and break through the enemy lines. Therefore, I can't allow the people of the Devil World to harm the people around you. It will affect you and make you have too many worries, so I will help you."
Xiao Bing sighed, "No matter what, this favor is too great. I will always remember it in my heart."
Zhuo Yin, who was beside him, said, "We won't leave unless Brother Tian Ci goes with us."
Gao Shun smiled, "Don't worry. The governor of Golden Arm City is a good person. His strength is also above the governor of the Ghost City. So no one will dare to cause trouble for you. And the governor of Golden Arm City will not restrict your freedom. I have already said that your father is a hunter, so he can hunt two prey every month as your rent and food money. "
Zhuo Han said agitatedly, "Captain Gao, how can we repay such a great favor?"
"I don't need to repay it. If you want to thank someone, you should thank Tian Ci. I have high hopes for him, so I made some investments in him in advance." Gao Shun smiled, "If there is no problem, I will bring someone to pick you up tomorrow morning. You can have a good chat tonight. I won't disturb you any longer. I will leave first."
Zhuo Han said respectfully, "Okay, Captain Gao. I will see you off."
Gao Shun said, "Let Tian Ci see me off."
Xiao Bing followed Gao Shun out of the yard. Zhuo Yin said with a wronged expression, "Are we really leaving? Why do we have to go to the Sky Water City? "
Zhuo Han sighed, "Actually, I don't want to go there either. After all, I am used to living here. But I am afraid I have to go back even if I don't want to. Can't you see that Captain Ha wants Tian Ci to work for him? And he is obviously using us to threaten Tian Ci."
Zhuo Yin said angrily, "How can he be so despicable?"
Zhuo Han sighed, "All the people in the Ghost City know that the Castellan is the most brutal. As his number one henchman, Ha Ha Sheng, is the most despicable and shameless. But so what? It's a pity that my talent in martial arts is too poor. I've only reached the peak of Transforming Strength in my forties. I guess I can only reach the level of Dan Strength in my lifetime. I have no achievements in martial arts at all. "Qin Haodong sighed.
Masters of Transforming Strength were regarded as martial arts masters in the eyes of ordinary people in the outside world. But here, they were just the most useless existence at the lowest level.
Zhuo Han looked at Zhuo Yin and said, "Fortunately, Tian Ci discovered the existence of your martial arts talent. I have to say that Tian Ci is really our lucky star. Now you are about to reach the Elixir-strength realm. I think when you reach my age, you will even have a chance to touch the threshold of Void-breaking. You are the hope of our Zhuo family. In your generation, the Zhuo family may finally get rid of the identity of ordinary people and become the nobles of the Devil Clan."
Zhuo Yin nodded hard and said, "Yes, Dad, I will work hard!"
After walking with Gao Shun for a distance, Gao Shun said, "Okay, you can go back first. I will send someone to pick up the father and daughter tomorrow. You should also hurry up and prepare for the next battle with Yinji."
"Alright, I, Tian Ci, will always remember Captain Gao's kindness. One day, I will definitely repay you!"
Gao Shun's eyes flashed and suddenly asked, "Who do you think you should be loyal to in the Devil Clan?"
"Who? Of course it's the Devil God! "Xiao Bing blurted out. There should be no doubt about this in the Devil Realm, right? Wasn't the Devil God the lord of the Devil Realm?
Gao Shun's mouth curled up into a smile. He said faintly, "Continue to work hard!"
After that, Gao Shun slowly walked away. Looking at his back, Xiao Bing suddenly understood something. It seemed that this Gao Shun should be on the side of the Devil God. Since he disliked Ghost Prince, then who did Ghost Prince belong to? The Great Commander who had led his men to almost kill Gao Fei and Maggie?
