Ares out of prison

Chapter 790 Getting Clues
The purpose of Wang Long and Lan Weihai coming to Xianhu City before was to reach a cooperation with them.

Now that Zhang Mingxiao finally agreed, Wang Long would naturally not let go of this excellent opportunity.

"As long as the city lord cooperates with me sincerely, any conditions can be negotiated!"

"it is good!"

Zhang Mingxiao nodded in agreement, and winked at the subordinates nearby, who immediately helped the unconscious Zhang Hexuan away.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingru quickly followed up, wanting to see how her brother was doing.

After several people left the hall, Zhang Mingxiao continued to speak:
"My condition is very simple, as long as you stay in Xianhu City and promise that you will never become an enemy of Xianhu City! I can consider helping you find out the whereabouts of Situ Shuo!"

The reason why Zhang Mingxiao proposed such a condition is precisely because the strength Wang Long demonstrated just now has far exceeded his expectations!

Even in the competition just now, Wang Long didn't use all his strength to easily suppress Zhang Hexuan!
Such a person, even if he can't make friends with Xianhu City, he must not be allowed to become Xianhu City's opponent!
If the relationship between them and Wang Long deteriorates one day, I am afraid that it will be difficult to resist this person's attack with all the strength of the whole city!
"Okay! I promise you, but I also hope that you can keep your promise and don't break your promise like that Snow Wind City!"

"Snow City?" Hearing these words, Zhang Mingxiao's face flashed with surprise again.

Some time ago, he had just learned from his subordinates that the army of Hades City was under pressure, but it was easily suppressed by the weak Feng Xuecheng!

Before that, there were many rumors that Snow Wind City absorbed a master of ancient martial arts, and his strength was greatly improved!

Could it be that the legendary expert who helped Snow Wind City out of its predicament is the young junior in front of him?
Although this conjecture could not be fully confirmed, Zhang Mingxiao at this moment seemed to have a little fear of Wang Long in his heart!
After a moment of silence, Zhang Mingxiao finally came to his senses, and said to an attendant next to him:
"Go, arrange a good wing room for the two of you, and escort the two of you back to rest!"

Led by the attendants, Wang Long and Lan Weihai then turned and left the hall.

"Mr. Wang, I never imagined that your abilities are so powerful that even the Lord of Xianhu City fears you!"

Even though it had been so long, Lan Weihai still couldn't recover from the shock.

When he was in Snow Wind City before, he had already seen Wang Long's terrifying strength, but at that time, Wang Long obviously restrained himself and did not show his full power.

It wasn't until today that Lan Weihai really had a comprehensive understanding of Wang Long's strength.

"It can be said that with your ability, you can break out a world in this Huanxing Holy Realm! Don't you really plan to think about it?" Lan Weihai asked tentatively.

But Wang Long's answer was still very firm: "I said before that the purpose of my coming to the Holy Land is to hunt down Situ Shuo. After finishing this matter, I will naturally leave."

Seeing Wang Long's decisive attitude, Lan Weihai could only nod his head in agreement, and couldn't say anything more.

In a sense, it might be a wise move for Wang Long not to stay in the Huanxing Holy Land.

After all, the Huanxing Holy Land was originally a place divided by heroes, if such a master of ancient martial arts participated in it, it would definitely set off another bloodbath!
In the next few days, Wang Long and Lan Weihai got familiar with the environment in Xianhu City.

I have to say that the landscape of Fairy Lake City is completely different from Fengxue City. Walking in the quaint streets really makes Wang Long feel like he is in a paradise!

But even so, he did not forget the main task of his trip, and he was paying attention to Zhang Mingxiao's movements all the time.

As the lord of a city, Zhang Mingxiao was sure of his words. The day after he agreed to Wang Long, he sent people out to investigate. As expected, he found out about Situ Shuo's whereabouts in less than a week!

"Mr. Wang, according to the information I have received, someone in the dense forest to the west of Xianhu City has witnessed the mysterious black energy you mentioned. I guess that Situ Shuo is probably hiding here!"

Hearing this sentence, Wang Long's heart was immediately lifted.

After many twists and turns in the Huanxing Holy Land, he finally managed to find Situ Shuo's whereabouts!

Without further ado, Wang Long immediately decided to go and find out, but just as he was about to turn around and leave, he was stopped by Zhang Mingxiao.

"Mr. Wang, the dense forest is an uninhabited land stretching for hundreds of kilometers, and there are even rumors of strange beasts infesting it! You only need to go there rashly, what if something unexpected happens?"

Zhang Mingxiao's worries were not unreasonable, even Lan Weihai had heard of the dangers of the dense forest more than once before!

"How about this, wait until I send someone to investigate and make sure everything is ready, and then it's not too late to go!"

Zhang Mingxiao originally wanted to use such an excuse to keep Wang Long in Xianhu City.

But the latter clearly saw his intentions, and shook his head without hesitation to refuse:

"Thank you, the city lord, for your kindness, but this is a grievance between me and Situ Shuo, and I don't want to involve other people in it! So, let me resolve this matter myself!"

Despite Zhang Mingxiao's repeated advice, Wang Long did not intend to change his mind at all.

In desperation, Zhang Mingxiao could only give up, turned around and said to a subordinate next to him:
"In that case, take out that treasure!"

As soon as this remark came out, the subordinate immediately showed a terrified expression: "City Master, are you sure you want to do this?"

"Besides him, I am afraid that no one can control this terrifying power. It is not a long-term solution to keep that thing in Xianhu City!"

Although he was a little hesitant, but hearing what Zhang Mingxiao said, his subordinates had no choice but to follow suit.

After a while, I saw my subordinates returning to the hall with a yellowed ancient book.

Wang Long couldn't help but wonder: "City Lord, what is this?"

"This exercise was written by the first city lord of Xianhu City. It records some unique secret techniques. It was originally planned to use these exercises to improve the overall strength of Xianhu City. Unfortunately, until now, the immortal No one in Hucheng can practice it! I think, since you have such extraordinary strength at such a young age, you might as well give this thing to you as a gift!"

From Zhang Mingxiao's point of view, rather than making such a peerless skill useless, it is better to hand it over to Wang Long.

Maybe one day, I can still see the former glory of Xianhu City reappearing in this young man!

Faced with Zhang Mingxiao's kindness, Wang Long did not refuse, and after thanking him, he turned and left.

Looking at Wang Long's back, Zhang Mingxiao couldn't help but let out a long sigh:

"Is it a good thing or a bad thing for such a strong man to leave the Huan Xing Saint Realm..."
