Chapter 1058 The Assist is Coming
Chapter 1058 The Assist is Coming
Just as Xu Shu entered the city with his soldiers, the defenders of Lingnan City captured Xie Xiu.

Is this too much a coincidence?

However, on the other hand, it also showed the defensive strength in Lingnan City. Manjusri smiled and said:
"General Xu, let's go and see some of the evil cultivators we caught."

The officials around him also said:
"Yes, our Lingnan City is heavily guarded, and the evil cultivators who sneak in cannot escape. They must be the few evil cultivators that General Xu wants to arrest. We all know that General Xu has a heavy responsibility to guard the border."

Now that Xie Xiu has been caught, General Xu has no need or inconvenience to stay in the city.

Xu Shu did not refuse, and after agreeing, he took the soldiers to identify Xie Xiu.

Lingnan City is very large, and the captured Xie Xiu was held in a dungeon. When Manjusri came with the crowd, the guards of the dungeon had already brought Xie Xiu out. The Xie Xiu who was locked in the cage was wearing a black cloak. He couldn't see his face, but he could clearly feel the evil aura on these evil cultivators.

There is no doubt that these people are evil cultivators.

Xu Shu quietly glanced at Emperor Yan beside him, and seeing Emperor Yan shaking his head, Xu Shu knew that these evil cultivators were not the evil cultivators of Emperor Yan who fled into the city before.

Therefore, this is simply a few evil cultivators that Manjusri found at random in order to fool himself, and asked him to take them back to do business, so as not to let Xu Shu stay in the city.

"Open the cage, let me interrogate!"

Xu Shu was silent for a moment before speaking.

Manjusri blinked, and the officials around him quickly said:
"General Xu has plenty of time to interrogate these evil cultivators. It's not too short of time. There have never been evil cultivators in my Lingnan City. It's probably not appropriate for the general to interrogate here."

Manjusri did not speak, but his silent attitude had already expressed his intention: he was driving Xu Shu away in a disguised form.

You came to catch the evil cultivator, and now that the evil cultivator has been caught by you, it would be inappropriate for you to stay here and not leave.Interrogation?This is Lingnan City, how can you have the qualifications for interrogation.

"To be honest, I don't think these are the evil cultivators we want to catch. Because their strength is too low."

Xu Shu was also unambiguous, pointing to the evil cultivator imprisoned in the cage, and continued:

"Although we haven't seen the faces of those evil cultivators, they are a few powerful evil cultivators with the strength of the fusion stage. The people in front of us are probably only Nascent Soul."

The gentle expression on Manjusri's face disappeared, and his face was paralyzed, with a strict and stressed expression on his face:

"What does General Xu mean to say, we randomly caught a few evil cultivators to fool you?"

This is a bit of a face-off.

Manjusri is the eldest son of the head of the Wen family in Lingnan City. Although he has no official status, he has inherited the position of the city lord of Lingnan. According to the official status of the city lord in the empire, his status is not weak. Moreover, Lingnan City is a Wen family. Outsiders are not allowed to get involved in the branch's territory, not even a frontier general like Xu Shu.

"City Lord Wen, don't be angry. I'm also thinking about the safety of your territory. Those monsters in the integration period will definitely cause turmoil in your territory. If I didn't catch those evil monsters, I wouldn't have to bring so many monsters with me." elite soldiers."

With a serious face, Xu Shu pointed at the few evil cultivators locked in the cage, and said:
"If there are so few low-strength evil cultivators, only one scout team is enough, City Lord Wen, don't you think so?"

Manjusri's face was calm, but an official behind him quietly wiped the cold sweat off his face, blaming himself: I'm too bad at handling things, I just wanted to find some evil cultivators to fool Xu Shu.

Unexpectedly, Xu Shu said that the few evil cultivators who were chasing and killing were powerful.And there is also evidence to show that this is the reason why he brought thousands of elites, which makes sense!It's impossible to refute.

Manjusri obviously didn't expect Xu Shu to be so difficult, but the evil cultivator had already "taken" it out, and now that Xu Shu didn't admit it, things became troublesome.

If these sorcerers were not the ones Xu Shu chased and killed, then where did these people come from?Did Lingnan City hide it?

Therefore, no matter what Xu Shu said, Manjusri could not agree with him. He had a cold face and a cold tone:

"What does General Xu mean? Does it mean that the evil cultivators we caught are not what you are looking for?"

Xu Shu looked very embarrassed, nodded:
"Probably not."

Manjusri understood in his heart: Xu Shu was deliberately finding fault. He didn't give Lingnan City any face. He insisted that these evil cultivators were not hunted down by him. Isn't that just a disguised expression that these evil cultivators were originally from their city? of?
"General Xu Shu is so sure, is he familiar with those evil cultivators?"

The gentleness on Manjusri's face completely disappeared, and under his instruction, the city defenders in Lingnan had already surrounded him.

Although there are not many defenders in Lingnan City, there are tens of thousands of them. Their combat effectiveness may not be very good, and they will not be the opponents of Xu Shu's elite soldiers.

However, Xu Shu couldn't do it rashly, especially when there was insufficient evidence. Xu Shu would be unreasonable to do it now, and he would be charged with provoking war and occupying the Wen family's fiefdom.

The Wen family has a profound background, and even the prince has to be scrupulous.

Xu Shu is naturally not good at confrontation.

"General Xu, please take these evil cultivators away. As for the fact that you may have evil cultivators lurking in my city, I will send someone to investigate thoroughly." .

Moreover, the officials around Manjusri took the opportunity to assist:
"Our young master is a gentle and courteous person who has always been kind to others. It is too much for General Xu Shu to make things difficult for our young master."

"General Xu said that evil cultivators have sneaked in here, but now we have helped the general catch them. If the general still doesn't give up, then please report to the emperor and let the emperor rule."

These officials are resolute, and they are clearly driving people away.

If Xu Shu doesn't leave, if the stalemate continues with them, conflicts will inevitably erupt, and after this conflict arises, it will be really difficult to resolve.

Xu Shu looked at Emperor Yan beside him in embarrassment. He wanted to hear what Emperor Yan meant. If Emperor Yan could guarantee to find the evil cultivator in the city, or find the handle of Lingnan City, then Xu Shu would fight against Manjusri.

If no flaws have been discovered since entering the city, they can only retreat temporarily.

Worried Xu Shu saw Emperor Yan nod to him, Xu Shu was pleasantly surprised, he went directly to Qin Wuge's side and asked:
"Have you seen the faces of those evil cultivators? Isn't it these people?"

Qin Wuge nodded cooperatively, cupped his fists and said:

"It's definitely not these people, and those few evil cultivators were hunted down by us, and they were still wounded. These people are fine."

Xu Shu immediately faced Manjusri and said:

"City Master Wen also heard it. It's not that I'm messing around, but the fact is true. Since these are not the evil cultivators we're looking for, there are still evil cultivators in the city! Let's help City Master Wen find those evil cultivators."

Manjusri's face turned completely cold:

"General Xu, do you want to search Lingnan City? Who gave you the guts?"

If he didn't listen to the good words, Manjusri broke up with him directly.He didn't believe that Xu Shu dared to fight against them. He led troops to break into the Wen family's territory and fought, which was almost equivalent to a mutiny. The Wen family could sue him for leading troops to invade.

Even if Xu Shu is a general at the border, so what if he is tall and heavy.As a border gate, you will not guard the border well, and come here to make trouble.

Behind Lingnan City is the entire Wen family, and the Wen family will not let Lingnan City be bullied like this.

"What is City Lord Wen doing? We're just helping you catch evil cultivators. Do you still want to kill us?"

Xu Shu was tit-for-tat, but he was still a little uncertain. If he really fought against Lingnan City, it would be good if he could catch the evil cultivator in the end. In the end, Xu Shu will become a victim.

However, Xu Shu has made up his mind, he is willing to gamble with his future and everything.

There are evil cultivators in Lingnan City!This was something that Xu Shu had detected and guessed before. In order to get rid of the cancer in Lingnan City, what is it to sacrifice oneself?
When Xu Shu made up his mind to lead his troops to break away from the guards of Lingnan City and forcibly search for them, he suddenly saw turmoil breaking out not far away. Several evil cultivators killed people in the street and caused a riot in Lingnan City.

Seeing this situation, Xu Shu was overjoyed. Is there a better excuse for the arrest than this situation?
