Chapter 136 Can We Leave the City?

"General Ji?"

A female voice with a smile came from the sedan chair, causing the guards beside them to look at each other in blank dismay. They never thought that there was a woman in the sedan chair.

"Yu... Yu steward?!"

General Ji is worthy of being General Ji, even though he was frightened out of his wits, he did not lose consciousness. When the three words trembled in his mouth, all the guards of Ximen were in a mess.

In the entire Tianyang City, the word "Yuguanshi" undoubtedly has an extraordinary meaning.

Although it is only called by the most common word "Guan Shi", adding the word "Yu" in front of it will make a big difference.

Because in this capital of Xuanyang, there is only one person who can be called "Jade Steward", and that is the ruler of the branch of the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Business Alliance: Yuxiangjin!
Even the guards guarding the west gate may not have heard of Guanshi Yu. It is said that he is an existence on an equal footing with Monarch Xuanyang, and his background is even more terrifying.

If all these are put aside, there is another reason why Ji Lun was so shocked, that is, it is said that the manager of the branch of the World Business Alliance is a genuine five-realm martial artist.

In this world, the strong are respected after all, five-level martial masters are extremely rare in the entire Xuanyang country, and most of them are won over by the Xuanyang royal family or the Yan family.

It just so happens that Yuxiangjin is one of the five-realm powerhouses in Tianyang City. Ji Lun, who only has a three-realm cultivation base, knew that he had kicked the iron today at the first sight of the person in the sedan chair. plate.

"Yuguan forgives the crime, it is Ji who is reckless, please... ah!"

Thoughts in Ji Lun's mind turned very quickly, but just as he was about to apologize and put down the car curtain, he felt a sharp pain in his right wrist, which made him scream out.

Click!

Everyone could see clearly that Ji Lun was still holding onto the right hand of the car curtain, as if it had been pinched by another hand.

Then there was a soft sound, and his hand reversed in a very strange arc.

Snapped!
Immediately afterwards, everyone saw another extremely tragic scene, and saw another hand stretched out from the sedan chair, and slapped Ji Lun's face fiercely, bloody teeth flew out instantly, it was so tragic.

boom!
Everything happened in a blink of an eye. While everyone was still standing at Ji Lun's mouth full of teeth, his whole body flew upside down, and then fell in front of the city gate not far away, crawling for a long time. Can't get up.

"My...my dantian..."

In the quiet night, everyone was staring at General Ji who fell to the ground. It wasn't until a moment later that he let out a miserable howl of lack of breath, which made everyone gasp.

Just now they all saw with their own eyes that Ji Lun was kicked in the lower abdomen, and then flew out backwards.

Looking at it now, that kick didn't show any mercy at all, and it directly abolished General Ji, the martial artist of the Three Realms.

Thinking about the identity of the person in the sedan chair, all the Ximen guards dared not say a word. At this moment, a certain sentence from Shang Cheng flashed through their minds.

"I warned you!"

It was this sentence that made all the guards feel quite emotional.

But they have calculated thousands of times, and they have never counted that the person sitting in the sedan chair is actually the steward Yu of the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Business Alliance.

It's fine if Ruoyu's manager is a man, but this one is a woman.

Sitting in the sedan chair, of course, he didn't want outsiders to see it. Ji Lun insisted on raising the curtain to check, so it was reasonable to end up like this.

Strictly speaking, Ji Lun is obeying his duties, but the guards in the arena know the centurion very well and know his ultimate purpose, they just want to squeeze more out of Shang Cheng's hands. oil and water.

Unexpectedly, Ji Lun kicked Ximen half his life and kicked on the iron plate. In this world where strength is the most respected, martial artists of the five realms will not care about the rules of Xuanyang Kingdom.

A martial artist of the third realm offended a martial artist of the fifth realm. Even if this incident was brought up in the court meeting of Xuanyang Kingdom, the empress would not say much.

The reason is that the five-level martial master is already the top combat force in Xuanyang, and the background of the Ten Thousand Kingdoms Business Alliance is not something that Xuanyang can afford.

If you, Ji Lun, are in charge of a branch of the Ten Thousand Nations Business Alliance who can be equal to the status of the Monarch Xuanyang, you, Ji Lun, have to forcibly inspect it after being reminded, which is no different from courting death.

As for the members of the Zhao family, they have been dumbfounded for a long time. Is this the domineering of the International Business Alliance?
"General Ji, can we leave the city now?"

Shang Cheng had no expression on his face, and when he was talking, he walked forward slowly and took back the two bags of top-grade gold beads.

It was this action that made Ji Lun spit out a mouthful of old blood again.

Didn't Ji Lun know that Shang Cheng was mocking him, but now that his cultivation base is completely useless, it is presumably impossible for him to be the Ximen Centurion again, and his life is ruined.

And all of this is just because of Ji Lun's own greed.

If he just took a convenient way and let these people go out of the city, how could there be the sorrow at this moment?

It's a pity that it's too late, and there is no regret medicine in this world.

A cripple whose dantian has been abolished, thinking about the people he offended before, Ji Lun at this moment, how can he have the mood to think about whether this group of people can leave the city?
"A bunch of trash, why don't you open the city gate quickly?"

A slightly obsequious voice came out, it turned out to be a second-level martial artist who spoke.

He didn't want to follow in Ji Lun's footsteps. After finishing his words, he trotted over and took the initiative to open the city gate for Shang Cheng.

"My lords, please!"

This long-haired man obviously has sharp eyesight, bowed his head, and completely lost the arrogance of Ji Lun just now. He knew that he couldn't afford to provoke these people, so naturally he could only pretend to be a grandson.

"Well, you are very good!"

When Shang Cheng passed by Na Shichang's side, he slapped that guy on the shoulder several times, making his bones brittle. At the same time, thinking of Ji Lun's death, he might soon be promoted to be a centurion Bar?

Under the emotion of everyone in the Zhao family, the group walked out from the west gate very easily, but no one dared to check again this time, didn't they see that Ji Lun over there still fell to the ground and groaned?
A farce ended with Ji Lun being abolished, but in the next two hours, no one paid any attention to Ji Lun.

It seems that this General Ji is not very popular in the West City.

Ximen seemed to have regained his calm, but the mood of the guards could not be calm at all. They didn't regain their senses until a series of hoofbeats sounded in the city.

"Stop comers!"

Shi Chang, who had just been promoted to be the interim leader, had a cold look in his eyes. Although he was shouting, he made up his mind that he must see the situation clearly before talking, so as not to follow in Ji Lun's footsteps.

"Blind your dog eyes, General Huo Lin can't recognize you?"

But when the long voice fell, there was a loud shouting sound suddenly, which made him startled for a moment, and then his body softened, and he knelt down on the ground subconsciously.

The many Ximen guards behind him naturally knew who the so-called General Huolin was. He was the most popular figure in the current Xuanyang Dynasty and the empress's younger brother.

"The Empress has ordered that King Zhendong's collusion with the Hai people is a heinous crime. He will deprive the king of Zhendong and demote him to a commoner. Anyone who colludes with him and defectes will be shot to death!"

Huolin General Yan Haosheng, who was riding a tall horse, looked down on all sentient beings, but after hearing what he said, all the guards who knelt on the ground showed strange expressions on their faces.

"The former prime minister, Zhao Qidong, killed my imperial family's secret guards and has now fled in fear of crime. This general asks you, are there a large number of people leaving the city from the west gate tonight?"

It was obvious that General Huo Lin had just come from the other three gates for inspection, and after hearing his words again, the faces of the guards became even more strange, but no one spoke.

By this time, they have all realized that there is something wrong with the group of people from the previous All Nations Business Alliance, maybe it is the so-called former prime minister's family.

They cannot afford such a serious crime.

"Report...report to General, yes... yes!"

However, just when all the guards were trying to muddle through, an inappropriate voice suddenly sounded, making their hearts sink, and they turned their eyes away at the same time.

"It's Ji Lun!"

Looking at it, everyone immediately recognized the identity of that person. It was General Ji Lunji who had his dantian crushed by a kick.

It's just that there is a touch of extreme resentment on his face at the moment.

"Huh? You are Ji Lun? How did you get into such a ghostly look?"

It seems that Huolin General Yan Haosheng still has some impressions of this Ximen guard, but the next moment he felt Ji Lun's state, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

"My lord general, two hours ago, a group of people came out of this west gate. I suspect that they are members of the Zhao family. The subordinates wanted to check, but their dantians were broken by twisting their wrists. This subordinate is incompetent!"

At this time, Ji Lun seemed to have grasped the last straw. He not only wanted to avenge that kick, but also wanted to take this opportunity to save his own life.

If General Huolin thought that he was seriously injured because he was desperately trying to stop those members of the Zhao family, he might be treated as a hero by the Xuanyang royal family in the future.

"Oh? Is there such a thing?"

After getting the answer he wanted, a smug look appeared on Yan Haosheng's face.

To be honest, when he saw the corpse in the attic, he had already realized that something might happen.

It's just that including Yan Haosheng and the empress, they never thought that the Zhao family's reaction would be so fast.

On the night when the accident happened in the Hall of Supreme Harmony, the prime minister's mansion had already made the decision to flee Tianyang City with his family.

It was precisely because of the discovery of the death of the secret guard of the Yan family that Yan Haosheng got up overnight in armor and patrolled the four gates.

And Watanabe Castle is on the east side, so Ximen is undoubtedly the last place he inspected to leave the city.

But this most unlikely Ximen has really become the place where all members of the Zhao family escaped.

Hearing Ji Lun's snot and tears, Yan Haosheng's face was so gloomy that it was about to drip.
