"Eh … I've only been in the Moonview Tribe for a few days, but my reputation is already so big. Even with a mask, I was still recognized by a guard. It seems that I can't keep a low profile anymore."
When Xiao Chen heard that the guards recognized him, he felt helpless. After a while, he returned to his normal state of mind. Anyway, he would be recognized sooner or later. Looking at the frightened expressions of the eight guards in front of him, he did not have a trace of pity and said coldly,
"Since you have recognized that I am Xiao Chen, I don't need to be long-winded, right? I will give you one more chance. Do as I say immediately, or … die! "
"Xiao … Young Master, we will do it immediately. Xiao Ba, quickly report Young Master Xiao Chen's request to the City Lord. Go!"
The captain of the guards was really scared. He secretly sighed at his bad luck. How could it be so easy to meet Xiao Chen? When he heard Xiao Chen's request again, he did not dare to disobey. He immediately ordered the clever guard to go into the city and report Xiao Chen's frightening robbery request to the City Lord. Then, the City Lord would pass it on to all the families in Ruyang City.
"Wait!" Xiao Chen suddenly yelled at the guard, and emphasized in a serious tone, "No one is allowed to reveal my real name. You can only use my nickname, Ghost Face Bandit, because my brother and I are only here to rob, understand?"
"Yes, Young Master Xiao, I will go now." The clever guard did not hesitate at all. He turned around and rushed into the nearby city gate and disappeared.
This guard named Xiao Ba was very smart. If he dilly-dallied and hesitated, the eight guards would immediately be ruthlessly killed by Xiao Chen because he felt that Xiao Chen had a cold and bloody murderous aura. A person with such a murderous aura must be stained with the blood of countless people.
When Da Huang heard the last sentence of Xiao Chen, he felt that it was very interesting and exciting. So, he secretly transmitted a message to Xiao Chen, "Big Brother, well done. Let's wait to get rich! If they don't give us money, we will have to rob them! Kaka! "
"En, these so-called clans are all selfish. For the sake of a million purple gold, they can all deal with me. I have no enmity with them. Since they are heartless to me, I can only be unjust to them. If they want to kill me and get the bounty, sure, but that depends on whether they have the ability to do so! Hmph! "
Xiao Chen was really angry. It was understandable that the Xie family wanted to deal with him. After all, he killed Xie Tongsheng. Now the whole Moonview tribe wanted to kill him. How could he not be angry?
He was not a soft persimmon that could be pinched by others. He was a lion that would bite. In addition, he had Da Huang, the real Lion King to protect him, so he was not afraid of anyone in the Moonview Tribe.
Xiao Chen had always been a low-key person. He was not a person who liked to stir up trouble. However, there were a lot of bastards who forced him to be high-profile. He just fulfilled their wishes. He had decided to kill in the Moonview tribe and rob crazily along the way. If he could destroy the Xie family, it would be the best. If not, he would escape from the Moonview tribe with the speed of Da Huang.
After the time it took to burn a stick of incense, the guard named Xiao Ba ran to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion panting. He saw two powerful guards standing at the gate, so he stepped forward and said respectfully, "Two big brothers, please report to the City Lord. I have an urgent matter to report to the City Lord!"
"An urgent matter? What happened? "A guard of the City Lord's Mansion asked curiously.
Although Xiao Ba was anxious, his rank was low, so he could not directly enter the City Lord's Mansion. So, he patiently said, "Two big brothers, I really have an urgent matter, and it is a very important matter. I have to report to the City Lord personally. Otherwise, Rongyang City will be in big trouble!"
"What? It's so serious! " The other guard shouted in surprise. He was just about to go in and report to the City Lord, but his footsteps suddenly stopped and he said awkwardly, "The City Lord is holding a meeting with the patriarchs of the five major clans inside. He ordered us not to be disturbed by anyone. If there is anything, we can wait until the meeting is over. Brother, can you tell us what is it? If it is really an urgent matter, we will only dare to go in and report! "
"Big brother, you said that the patriarchs of the five major clans are holding a meeting in the City Lord's Mansion? That's great! This can save a lot of time! "
Xiao Ba was overjoyed, but in the blink of an eye, he was in a dilemma. He could not directly say that Xiao Chen was outside the city. He could only stand arrogantly outside the city as the Ghost-Faced Bandit and wait for the patriarchs of the city to give him a lot of money. However, if he did not reveal some information, he would not be able to convince the two big brothers of the guards.
After pondering for a while, he clenched his teeth and said, "Two big brothers, there is a powerful bandit outside the city gate. He injured six of our brothers. He ordered me to report to the City Lord to prepare three million taels of purple gold. In addition, the other major and minor clans in the city must also prepare two million or one million taels of purple gold. After the preparations are done, the City Lord and the patriarchs must personally deliver the purple gold to the city gate. The time limit is half an hour. Now, one-third of the time has passed. There are only ten minutes left before the bandit comes in!"
"What? A bandit? And a bandit? What is his strength? He actually dares to rob our Rongyang City in broad daylight? Is he a fool or a psychopath? Hahaha! "
The two guards of the City Lord's Mansion thought that they had misheard and asked in disbelief. They asked a few questions in a row. In the end, they could not help but laugh out loud. Their laughter was full of ridicule and ease.
"Eh …"
Hearing the two of them laughing, Xiao Ba was depressed and became even more anxious. If the two big brothers of the guards did not care about this matter, they would definitely not report it. If they did not report it, Rongyang City would be in danger.
He absolutely did not believe that Xiao Chen was a fool. If he came to surrender himself, he must have absolute strength and a strong backing. The reason why Xiao Chen did this was definitely to start a war with Rongyang City and then the Xie Clan and the entire Moonview Tribe.
As expected!
One of the guards laughed for a while and stopped laughing. He waved his hand at Xiao Ba and said with a cold face, "Brother, don't make trouble here. If we disturb the City Lord and the others, we will all be beheaded. You should go to your City Guards Camp to find the madman outside the city and drive him away or directly kill him."
"Well, my second brother is right. Little brother, quickly go back to your post. Don't make a fuss here. How can a person who has fallen to the point of becoming a bandit be a strong man? Just kill him and feed him to the dogs! I advise you to leave quickly. If you disturb the important people inside, you and I will lose our iron rice bowls! "Another guard of the City Lord's Mansion echoed with a tone and manner of driving people away.
"Two big brothers!"
Of course, Xiao Ba would not leave like this. If he left, he would be derelict in his duty, and his whole family would be beheaded. Therefore, he shouted and said seriously, "This matter concerns the safety of the whole city, and you actually treat it as a joke. Do you think I am joking? If something happens, are you responsible or am I? Quickly go and report to the City Lord! Otherwise, the three of us and our families will all be killed because of you! "
"Eh …" The two guards of the City Lord's Mansion were frightened by Xiao Ba's sudden change of tone and the content of his words. They looked at Xiao Ba with a stunned expression. Seeing that Xiao Ba was not joking at all, they immediately did not dare to laugh.
