I am a hero in the rivers and lakes

Chapter 553 Meet the City Lord
"Why don't you hide?"

Looking at Tian Zhong in surprise, Zhuo Yucheng's hand holding the sword trembled a little.Zhuo Yucheng knew very well that this sword of his was actually a shattering blow, without any power at all.

If Tian Zhong wanted to hide, he could dodge completely.Even if he wants to kill himself, it is a breeze.After all, the gap between the two of them is really too big.

But Tian Zhong, who seemed invincible in the past, was willing to accept his sword, and didn't even hide.Such a scene, but he never thought of it.

"Why should I hide?" Shaking his head, he revealed a bitter smile, "I've been seriously injured for so many years, and I can hardly hold on anymore. This Nightless City will always be handed over!"

"I know you want to kill me, and I will have no regrets if I can die in your hands! From now on, the Nightless City will be handed over to you! It's just that you must protect the Nightless City, you know!"

"I, I" tremblingly threw away the sword in his hand, at this moment Zhuo Yucheng's mind was roaring.At this moment, his heart was completely messed up!
He couldn't understand the existence of the imaginary enemy he had always regarded as, the enemy who stole the Nightless City, why would he make such a choice, why would he willingly bear his own sword?
"Zhuo Yucheng, you bastard!" With a slap on Zhuo Yucheng's face, Lin Ye, who was closest, seemed to be in a rage, and frantically punched and kicked Zhuo Yucheng.

"Ahem, stop, I'll tell you to stop!" After just a few hits, Tian Zhong stretched out his hand to stop Lin Ye, who was furious.But Lin Ye was still not reconciled, and pointed at Zhuo Yucheng and cursed.

"Lin Ye, Tian Zhong killed so many people in my Zhuo family for the position of city lord, why should I kill him? Do you think I don't know, I saw it clearly back then, I saw it with my own eyes!"

"Fart, what do you know, you don't know anything!"

"Lin Ye, shut up!"

"City Lord, there are some things I have to say today, even if you punish me in the future, City Lord, I will admit it!"

Looking at Zhuo Yucheng coldly, Lin Ye couldn't hide the disgust in his eyes.This kind of look made Zhuo Yucheng feel boundless anger in his heart, it was this kind of look, from childhood to adulthood, everyone around him had this kind of look.

Why?This nightless city originally belonged to their Zhuo family, why should they look at him like this?
"Zhuo Yucheng, that year was your grandfather, the cruel and ruthless old city lord of Wuye City. He wanted to kill us, but it was the city lord who saved us back then!"

"Not all of your Zhuo family were killed by the city lord. You may not know it. Your grandfather was already crazy at that time and started killing in the Zhuo family. Most of your Zhuo family's masters, including those affiliated to the Zhuo family, were killed. His slaughter!"

"Impossible, you're talking nonsense, my grandfather couldn't do that!"

"Why should I lie to you? Do you think your grandfather is a good person? How do you think we got here? To tell you the truth, we are actually just drug slaves adopted by your Zhuo family!"

"Do you know what a drug slave is?" Couldn't help clenching his fists, Lin Ye seemed to think of many unbearable past events, his face was full of struggle.The more this happened, the more mocking he looked at Zhuo Yucheng.

"The so-called medicine slaves are young men with excellent aptitude captured by your Zhuo family from all over the world. They are constantly nourished with great tonics, and they are also asked to practice specific secret methods to make their blood stronger and stronger."

"When you finally succeed in cultivation, kill them and offer sacrifices, just to nourish the immortal grass! In order to fully cultivate the immortal grass, how many people have been killed by your Zhuo family, you deserve to die!"

"You're talking nonsense, it's impossible, you're lying!"

"Joke, now that it's over, do you think I'll lie to you?"

At this moment, only disdain and indifference remained in Lin Ye's eyes.These years he obeyed the orders of the city lord, forced himself to let go of the past, and treated Zhuo Yucheng with a normal heart.

But it was only now that he realized that he hadn't let go at all.At this moment, the deep hatred in his heart couldn't help showing it after all.

"Zhuo Yucheng, back then, your grandfather was a master of Yuanshen Realm Consummation, and he has been stuck in this realm for a long time. It's been so long that his lifespan is coming to an end, and he can't wait!"

"He wants to use the undead grass to try to break through, but the undead grass is not yet mature at this time, what do you think he should do? Naturally, he will go on a killing spree, massacring a lot of masters, and use the nourishing undead grass to make him mature as soon as possible!"

"Do you know what the Nightless City looked like back then? Let me tell you, it was a river of blood!"

"But relying on the experts outside, the undead grass can't mature. So he stretched out the knife to his own people. In order to prolong his life, your grandpa has already gone crazy. He can do anything, even if he swings the knife at his own family. !"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible, you are all lying!" Lin Ye stared at him with such eyes, and everyone around him looked at him with such eyes, Zhuo Yucheng couldn't help but retreat again and again.He couldn't believe it, and he couldn't believe that this was the truth back then.

"Is it a lie? In fact, you should already know it in your heart. The whole Nightless City knows about this matter, only you don't know it!"

Lin Ye's eyes were full of anger, as if he wanted to roast Zhuo Yucheng.The more Zhuo Yucheng was like this, the happier they felt!
"After all these years, you haven't thought about why we don't want to stay with you, and why you are isolated by everyone? Do you think it was an order from the city lord? To tell you the truth, you are wrong, very wrong !"

"Actually, these years, the city lord has been asking us to let go of our prejudice against you and let us accept you completely, but we can't do it. For so many years, we have tried to accept you, but when we think of the things that your Zhuo family has done , we can't let it go!"

"That's right, we can't let go! We were loyal to the Zhuo family back then, but what did we get in return? We were slaughtered by you mercilessly. Lin Ye is right, you deserve to die!"

While speaking, the swordsman looked at Zhuo Yucheng coldly.Not only him, but all the masters of the Nightless City around him stared at him, their murderous eyes seemed to vent their dissatisfaction unscrupulously.

"Sure enough, your Zhuo family is a group of wolves who can't get enough to eat! The city lord takes you as a adopted son and treats you like his own son. But in the end, you repay your kindness with revenge, and I should kill you!"

While speaking, the swordsman drew out his knife again, and slashed at Zhuo Yucheng fiercely.It's just that when the blade approached Zhuo Yucheng, it couldn't cut it no matter what.Because there is a hand that has firmly blocked the knife.

The blade cut through the palm of the hand, and the blood flowed down the blade drop by drop, just flowing on Zhuo Yucheng's body, and Zhuo Yucheng was completely stunned there!
The figure in front of him was so familiar, as if he had been silently shielding himself from the wind and rain all these years.

"City lord, how are you, city lord? I never thought about it."

"It's okay, I bumped into it myself, besides, it's just a small injury!" Tian Zhong withdrew his hand and let the blood scatter on the ground, with a trace of seriousness on Tian Zhong's face.

"He Ying, are you guilty?"

"This subordinate is guilty, and the subordinate accidentally injured the city lord, please punish the city lord!"

"Fart, your crime is not that you hurt me, but that you did something to Yucheng!" Shaking his head, Tian Zhong said softly, "I just said that Wuye City belongs to the Zhuo family, and Yucheng is Wuye City from today on." Lord of the city!"

"He Ying, what crime should you commit to assassinate the city lord?"

"The city lord, I."

"Shut up, I'm not the city lord of Wuye City anymore, Yucheng is!" Pointing in the direction of Zhuo Yucheng, Tian Zhong shook his head and said, "Even if it's an apology, you should ask Yucheng!"

After Tian Zhong stood up reluctantly, he struggled to salute Zhuo Yucheng, "Subordinate Tian Zhong, pay homage to the city lord!~"
