low-key is king

Chapter 169 What a Yan family, what a queen!
"The disaster of extinction?"

Zhao Qidong sneered, and said, "It is precisely because I want to think about the hundreds of thousands of people in Dongyuan City, as the city lord, I should see the situation clearly, instead of going my own way!"

The words of the prime minister were not only an answer to Huang Yanting, but also a reminder to Guan Xu that the army of the palace will not retreat, and if they really want to resist, the two sides can only fight one battle.

"Yes, there are hundreds of thousands of innocent people in Dongyuan City, what's wrong with them?"

Guan Xu was a little distracted. He governed the city with the word "benevolence", which he learned from Zhao Qidong.

It is precisely because of this that Zhao Qidong knows his student very well.

If Zhao Qidong was still uncertain about the state of mind of this former student before he entered Dongyuan City and met Guan Xu, then he now has infinite confidence.

It was about the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Dongyuan City. He believed that Guan Xu would make a correct decision, not to mention that he had already laid the groundwork too much before he sacrificed this big killer.

"Guan Xu, do you really want to join the enemy?"

Huang Yanting also seemed to have heard the attitude in Guan Xu's mouth, and his face became extremely gloomy, which was undoubtedly the last result he wanted to see.

"The trend of the times, whether it's for the Xuanyang Lu family or the people of Dongyuan City, I'm afraid this is the only choice left for me!"

Although Guan Xu didn't answer Huang Yanting's question directly, the words he said were already a kind of affirmative answer, and the killing intent in Huang Yanting's heart emerged instantly.

"Mr. Huang, you have been with me for several years. You should know my determination. I wonder if you would like to follow me to set things right and help Lu's orthodoxy?"

It seemed that Guan Xu still hadn't seen Huang Yanting's true face clearly. He still valued the chief staff member of the City Lord's Mansion, and he began to persuade him at this moment.

"Set things right? Guan Xu, you need to know that those people outside the city are traitors. You made this decision today, have you thought about the consequences?"

Huang Yanting will not be persuaded by just a few words, he is also making the last effort, but he knows in his heart that it may be difficult for the number one Confucian general of Xuanyang Kingdom to change his mind.

"Mr. Huang..."

"Xiao Xu, there's no need to persuade him. Can't you see that this Huang is actually Yan's running dog?"

Just when Guan Xu was about to say something, Zhao Qidong who was beside him shook his head slightly, and what he said made Guan Xu's face change slightly.

In fact, with Guan Xu's mentality, under Huang Yanting's repeated words, he might not be able to think of something.

It's just that Guan Xu and Huang Yanting have worked together for many years and have always cooperated very happily. Deep down in his heart, he never thought that this was actually sent by the Yan family to monitor him.

But at this moment when Zhao Qidong reminded him, a look of distress appeared on Guan Xu's face.

Because only this answer can explain Huang Yanting's attitude and everything.

"Sure enough, Jiang is still old and hot. Unfortunately, you Zhao Qidong will not survive tonight after all!"

Being exposed by Zhao Qidong, Huang Yanting did not deny it, but a smirk appeared on his face.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Zhizhao, who was standing beside Zhao Qidong, couldn't help but sneer.

"Is it just based on your cultivation as a martial artist with a small success in the four realms?"

Zhang Zhizhao sneered, he was a martial artist who had just entered the fifth realm, and with a difference of nearly one realm, he could kill Huang Yanting, an annoying guy, with at most three punches.

Guan Xu on the side also thinks the same way. He has worked with Huang Yanting for many years, and he thinks he knows the cultivation level of this chief staff member very well, but the other party still has to speak out.

But Guan Xu didn't say anything at this time. Although he was benevolent, he also knew when to be ruthless.

Since this Huang Yanting is from the Yan family, if he wants to make trouble, he must be cut off first.

"Zhang Zhizhao, you dare to talk to this old man with your mere five-level cultivation base?"

However, just as Zhang Zhizhao's words fell, and the three people in the room thought that Huang Yanting could not survive, a sneer suddenly came out of his mouth.

Immediately afterwards, a majestic breath rose from his body.

boom!
The terrifying aura rising from Huang Yanting directly shocked the three of them back a step, and the faces of Guan Xu and Zhang Zhizhao had become extremely ugly.

"Five...Five Realms Great Accomplishment?!"

This is the breath of Huang Yanting that Guan Xu and Zhang Zhizhao sensed.

They never imagined that Huang Yanting, who was only in the realm of small accomplishment in the four realms before, would reach the stage of great accomplishment in the five realms in an instant.

It is obvious that Huang Yanting has been playing the role of a small martial artist in the four realms for the past few years, and his superb camouflage technique has made Guan Xu, who has completed the four realms, completely invisible.

It wasn't until this time tonight, when Guan Xu made the decision to surrender the city to the enemy, that Huang Yanting finally showed his true cultivation, and his forbearance was so strong that people had to admire it.

"This is trouble!"

Hearing Zhang Zhizhao and Guan Xu's exclamations one after another, Zhao Qidong's old face was so gloomy that water dripped down from his face.

He has calculated thousands of times, but he has not counted that the chief staff member of Dongyuan City is actually the strongest one.

Zhang Zhizhao might not have the slightest confidence in being a master of the five realms, and it would be extremely difficult to even escape. This is the real reason for Huang Yanting's sneer just now.

"Guan Xu, protect Xiangye and go first!"

Since the other party was a master of five realms, Zhang Zhizhao didn't dare to neglect him at all. He sneered coldly, but it only attracted more sneers from Huang Yanting.

Huang Yanting did not immediately go after Zhao Qidong who was being escorted by Guan Xuhu and wanted to go out. This was not because he had been locked by Zhang Zhizhao's breath, but because he had another kind of self-confidence.

boom!
At this moment, a loud sound suddenly came from Zhang Zhizhao's ears, and then Guan Xu who had just opened the door was shocked, stepped back a few steps, and almost knocked down Zhao who was behind him. Qidong.

"It's you?!"

When Guan Xu settled down and saw the majestic figure beside the door, his heart sank, and the deep voice in his mouth contained a touch of anger.

"If the city lord doesn't become that traitor, Zheng Yi will still be your most loyal subordinate!"

When the words claiming to be Zheng Yi came out of his mouth, Guan Xu suddenly felt that what he, the city lord, had really failed.

The two most trusted subordinates who were once regarded as the most trusted were actually the eyeliners of the Yan clan.

Especially this Zheng Yi, Guan Xu saved his life when his life was on the verge of death.

Looking at it now, the seemingly tragic battle at that time may have been directed by the Yan clan, or Huang Yanting himself, with the purpose of getting Zheng Yi to gain Guan Xu's trust.

This Four Realms Consummation Martial Artist named Zheng Yi has helped Guan Xu many times and made countless contributions. He is also Guan Xu's most trusted person besides his chief aide, Huang Yanting.

Never thought that at such an important juncture, Huang Yanting and Zheng Yi would reveal their true colors one after another, which caused a look of despair to appear on Guan Xu's face.

Now that the face has been torn apart, there is no room for the two sides to reconcile.

Guan Xu knew that neither he nor his husband, or Zhang Zhizhao from the five realms, would be spared tonight.

"What a Yan family, what a queen empress!"

While feeling uneasy in his heart, Guan Xu couldn't help admiring him, even a touch of fear rose in his heart, and while he was expressing emotion, he couldn't help but silently mourn for Xuanyang Lu family.

With Yan's cunning, King Zhendong who has always used troops and schemes well, will he really be the opponent of the Yan family?
Guan Xu was not sure, but in his opinion, what kind of battle would be fought in the future, whether the Yan family would win or King Zhendong would make things right, anyway, he and his husband couldn't see it.

"hateful!"

On the other side, Zhang Zhizhao, who was only locked by the breath and hadn't made a move yet, had a gloomy face. He knew that this time, Master Xiang had underestimated Yan's mind and ended up in this self-inflicted situation.

But who the hell would have thought that the two strong men in the Dongyuan City Lord's Mansion, except for Guan Xu, were all members of the Yan family, and they were so powerful?
If there is only one Huang Yanting who has attained perfection in the five realms, Zhang Zhizhao will have to protect his master thoroughly if he is to fight for his old life.

But with Zheng Yi, who is also a consummation of the four realms, Guan Xu couldn't even get out of this room.

Even if he is the supreme commander of Dongyuan City, if the news cannot be spread, he is just a bare city lord.

"Guan Xu, Zhao Qidong, let's capture them without a fight, maybe we can save a whole body!"

At this time, Huang Yanting was undoubtedly very complacent. Hearing the complacent voice in his mouth, it seemed that everything was under control, and this great achievement should not escape.

In fact, Huang Yanting was sent by the patriarch of the Yan clan to monitor the Dongyuan City, isn't he just waiting for today?

Thinking about how he would be rewarded by the Yan family after he made this great achievement, Huang Yanting couldn't control his excitement.

As for the butler of the Xiangfu, who had just entered the fifth realm, he didn't take it seriously at all.

"You are dreaming!"

Naturally, it was impossible for Zhang Zhizhao to catch him without a fight, because he believed that after he gave up resisting, the humiliation the Prime Minister would suffer would be a hundred times more unacceptable than death.

Therefore, after Zhang Zhizhao yelled, all the strength in his body had gathered into a punch, and he was the first to bombard Huang Yanting. He wanted to do his best to save Xiangye a way out.

boom!
However, such a powerful punch was dispelled by Huang Yanting lightly.

Only a loud noise was heard, and Zhang Zhizhao took several steps back and forth, hitting the east wall of the room back and forth.

"Zheng Yi, take down the old man Zhao Qidong!"

Immediately afterwards, Huang Yanting yelled, he was naturally not afraid of Zheng Yihe stealing credit for himself, how could a guy with perfect four realms steal the credit of his day?
