Legend of the Dragon King

Chapter 987 I Didn't Time Out, Did I?
Hearing the city lord's angry reprimand, Wu Zhiming suddenly felt as if struck by lightning, and his face turned pale.

Feelings of shame and self-blame also surged in his heart.

Opening his mouth, Wu Zhiming said in a weak tone: "I am the city lord... well, the thing is like this..."

Wu Zhiming wanted to explain something, but finally found that he couldn't explain it. After thinking about it, he could only tell the city lord the real situation carefully and without concealment.

And he also told the other party why he was willing to help Mu Jinyu delay for half an hour.

After listening to Wu Zhiming's words, the city lord's face became cloudy and cloudy for a few times. Finally, he sighed a long time, shook his head and said helplessly:
"You are so confused, so confused! Yes... If Brother Mu hadn't acted righteously, we probably wouldn't be able to stop the five demon kings, and we might have died under the iron hooves of the beast horde, and the demon-slaying city would have been trampled by the beast horde long ago! "

"But it's one thing and one thing!"

"When there is a beast tide, Tiangong will not take care of this shitty thing, but if there is a demon king-level monster in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, Tiangong will definitely not ignore it. You let Brother Mu mess around, for the sake of some possible natural treasures Taking risks, but disregarding the lives of tens of thousands of people in Monster City, I really don't know what to say about you!"

"If the monster phoenix really has something good, and it is finally taken away because it attracted people from the Tiangong, then I will go to Wangcheng to apply to His Majesty for the treasury authority, and I will compensate Brother Mu?"

"You are entangled in this matter, and you help him delay time, and gamble with the lives of hundreds of thousands of people, I am really..."

The city lord was trembling with anger at the end, unable to speak at all.

He gave a final cold snort, looked at Wu Zhiming with disappointment, and was about to contact Tiangong, and asked them to send a strong man in the Dao realm to kill the demon city.

As for whether Mu Jinyu has successfully killed the monster phoenix and won the treasures of heaven, material and earth, there is no possibility of any danger in the monster city, he has thought about it, but he dare not bet on this possible risk at all.

Even if Mu Jinyu really did it, but following him to summon the people from Tiangong, the people from Tiangong deprived him of the heaven and earth treasures he got.

Then he was really sorry for Mu Jinyu, but as he said just now, at worst, he would apply to the King of Wu to open the treasure house of the king's city and find the corresponding treasures to compensate Mu Jinyu.

Compared with the lives of tens of thousands of people, a little bit of natural resources and earthly treasures, a little bit of compensation is nothing at all.

What's more, he felt that the possibility of Mu Jinyu's death at the hands of Yaohuang and making Yaohuang angry was far higher than the possibility of Mu Jinyu beheading Yaohuang!
The city lord hurriedly returned to the city lord's mansion, then went into his room, and found a simple bronze mirror.

He circulated his true energy at a very high speed, pouring it into the bronze mirror continuously.

Suddenly, a thin layer of light appeared on the bronze mirror surface.

Soon, the light shines brightly, illuminating the entire room.

Then, on the bronze mirror, the light distorted, and then an old face appeared.

The old man's face was covered with age spots and intertwined wrinkles. He looked like an ordinary old man whose days were numbered like a candle in the wind.

But the city lord didn't dare to be disrespectful when facing him.

Because this is the deacon of Tiangong.

Even if he doesn't have the slightest cultivation base, he still has a high position and authority, and he is not something he can offend.

What's more, the city lord knows that the other party will not be an ordinary person.

After the city lord saw the old man's face appearing from the bronze mirror, he had a respectful expression, and quickly informed him of the possible situation on the side of the monster mountain range.

"Oh? A demon phoenix at the demon emperor level? Are you sure?"

After the old man heard the city lord's report, his drowsy appearance became lighter, and his expression became a little more interested. He rolled his eyelids a few times, looked directly at the city lord with his cloudy old eyes, and said indifferently.

"Although I haven't actually seen it, someone has definitely sensed the changes in the aura of the monster phoenix, and this monster phoenix has been in the third-order monster beast for many years. The possibility of breaking through to the realm of the demon emperor is very high!"

The city lord quickly explained respectfully.

"Okay." Hearing the words of the city lord, the old man knew that the other party could not be a demon phoenix at the level of the demon emperor, his interest lost a lot, and his tone became a little impatient.

However, the monster phoenix is ​​a special monster after all, and it is worth sending someone from Tiangong to find out, so the old man said: "I will send someone over later, but it will not be a powerful person in the Dao realm, but the other party is holding a heavy treasure. , it is still easy to deal with monsters that have just broken through the realm of the demon emperor, you just wait..."

"Thank you sir!"

The city lord was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said gratefully.

"Buzz!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a soft sound, and the brilliance on the bronze mirror dissipated, making the bronze mirror return to its original simple appearance.

"clatter……"

Then, the bronze mirror seemed to lose the support of its true energy, and fell straight down from midair.

The city lord had been prepared for a long time, and quickly grabbed it in his hand.

Carefully putting away the bronze mirror that can communicate with the heavenly palace, the city lord let out a long sigh of relief, patted his heart and said, "It's all right now, don't worry about the monster phoenix's revenge!"

Then, the city lord didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurried out of the room, left the city lord's mansion, and stood on an open space on the city platform again.

On this city platform, there is no God Extinguishing Cannon, but a circle of extremely cumbersome formations, which are also inlaid with many special materials.

This is a teleportation array, which can be used by the people of Tiangong, after providing a sufficient amount of spirit stones, to teleport from Tiangong to any place in the Kunlun Ruins where the teleportation array is placed.

If the people from the Heavenly Palace come over, they must come out of this teleportation array.

Instead of traveling thousands of miles on a shuttle and waiting for the magic weapon to come over.

If you really want to wait for people from Tiangong, the day lily will be cold.

"City Master, what's going on?"

Wu Zhiming came to this city tower with a pale face, looked at the city owner with complicated eyes, and asked in a low voice.

The city lord looked back at him. After learning that Tiangong would send someone, his tense heartstrings relaxed a lot, and his face eased up a lot. He said, "Tiangong has been notified, and they have decided to send someone to take a look. You Just wait with me later, if someone from Tiangong takes a fancy to you and rewards us with some treasures, it will be enough for us to use for a long time."

"That's good." Hearing this, Wu Zhiming nodded slightly and said.

His expression still looked listless, with shame and self-blame, very complicated.

The city lord saw what he was thinking and said with relief: "Now it will be an hour before you come back to kill the demon city. Brother Mu hasn't come back yet, so it's probably a bad luck. You don't have to call the people from Tiangong in advance for us." And blame yourself!"

"call out!"

At this time, there was a strong piercing sound.

It came from the position on the other side of the Monster Beast Mountain Range.

When Wu Zhiming and the city lord heard this movement, they couldn't help being moved, and suddenly looked up in the direction of the sound.

In the middle of the sky, Mu Jinyu is driving the rainbow light, rushing towards Monster Slayer City at top speed!
The city lord calculated the time again, and it was just an hour!
"clatter!"

Mu Jinyu, who was in mid-air, flashed suddenly, and teleported to the city platform, looked at Wu Zhiming and the city owner with a faint smile, and said with a faint smile: "Brother Wu, I am back, and I have not exceeded the time we agreed. time?"
