Humanity’s Great Sage

Chapter 2565: Thunder of Panic

When such a person comes in person, it is indeed worthy of Shouzhu to lead a group of deputy city lords to welcome him personally. In terms of seniority, even Shouzhu is half a dwarf.

After a few words of greeting, Shouzhu invited Changming into the city and held a banquet in his honor.

During the banquet, this person was chatting and laughing with Shouzhu, and he seemed to have a really good relationship with him. Changsheng was an easy-going person, and he had many interactions with a group of deputy city lords, which made people like him more.

But what puzzled Jing Lei was that after the banquet, Changsheng said goodbye and left.

It seemed that he was really just passing by and came over to chat with Shouzhu.

But Jing Lei knew that a person like Chang Ming could not be so idle. He must have other purposes for his trip. Perhaps he had already negotiated with his city lord during the banquet, but others didn't know it.

He didn't ask any more questions and just did his job.

The only thing that puzzled him was that after Changsheng left, Shouzhu's expression seemed a little hesitant, as if he had encountered something difficult.

Jing Lei was about to return to his seat when he heard Shouzhu say hello: "Jing Lei!"

Jing Lei hurriedly stepped forward: "Sir."

Shouzhu looked at him quietly with his eyes, and then took out a storage ring: "Go to Guhong City and give this to Duan Guhong."

Guhong City, like Shouzhu City, is a Zhou-level Hedao City, located in another adjacent war zone.

Its city lord, Duan Guhong, is also a powerful person. Because the war zones controlled by each other are adjacent, they have always communicated with each other. Shouzhu and Duan Guhong have a good relationship in private.

Jing Lei didn't know what was in this storage ring, but since he, the deputy city lord, had to go there in person, it must be of great importance.

"Yes!" Jinglei took the storage ring and put it away carefully. With his foot strength, this trip back and forth would not take more than a month. He had assigned a new mission to Yuanxi City, so he didn't want to delay the next time. By contacting Yuan Xicheng, you don’t have to worry about getting into trouble.

"Let's go now." Shouzhu waved his hand.

Jing Lei took the order and quickly rushed out of Shou Zhu City, heading towards the direction where Gu Hong City was sitting.

Although the snowfield is in chaos and he is alone, he is not worried about his own safety. As the deputy city lord of Zhou level Hedao City, his own strength is comparable to the heaven level city lord who has the increase of Hedao City. Such strength As long as you are not surrounded by a large number of enemies, there is no danger to your life.

I was somewhat curious in my heart. Is there any relationship between Changshou and his city lord who asked me to visit Guhong City?

He was curious, but he never thought of finding out what was in the storage ring.

After traveling for more than half a day, Jing Lei suddenly stopped and looked towards a floating land with a cold expression: "You are so sneaky and disgraceful, get out!"

As he finished speaking, a figure walked out from that direction and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist Jinglei is really a bad temper. I am just resting here, but is it bothering you?"

Looking at the figure he had just seen half a day ago, the thunderous coldness and murderous intent on his face turned into astonishment: "Fellow Taoist Chang... Changshou?"

He just felt something in his heart and realized that there was an ambush here. He thought that the other party was going to attack him, so he was so rude in his words. Moreover, his status also allowed him to be rude to others.

Who would have thought that the person walking out from behind the floating land was Changsheng, who had just left Shouzhu City not long ago.

Shouzhu wants to kill me!

This was the first thought that popped into Jing Lei's mind.

He didn't think it was a coincidence that he met Changsheng here. The snowfield was so big that there was no reason for him to follow the same route as Changsheng.

Changsheng couldn't really rest here. If he wanted to rest, he would never leave Shouzhu City before.

So he immediately realized that Changsheng was here specifically waiting for him. He was entrusted by Shouzhu to block here and intercept him.

But the next moment he rejected this idea, because he had worked hard under Shouzhu for so many years, and even if he did not have much credit, he still had hard work. Shouzhu could not do this and cut off his own arm. If the news was leaked, who would do it in the future? Work hard for him.

But if Shouzhu hadn't wanted to kill him, why would Changsheng be here?

I don't know how many thoughts went through my mind at this moment. Jinglei hurriedly made a panic gesture, clasped his fists and said: "It turns out to be fellow Taoist Changshou. I thought Xiaoxiao was ambushing me here and trying to sneak attack me. It's really rude."

"It's not surprising if you don't know." Changming chuckled, "Fellow Taoist is walking alone, so it's a good thing to be vigilant. If I were in the situation just now, I would have taken action directly, but fellow Taoist has a good temper."

Jing Lei Xin said that my temper has not been very good recently, I just don’t dare to explode in front of you.

He cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Taoist, please continue to rest. I won't disturb you. I have official business, so I'll go ahead."

He didn't know why Changsheng was waiting for him here, but he instinctively felt that there would be no benefit in having too much contact with Changsheng, because if he could really get what he said on the surface, Changsheng could be found in Shouzhu City On your own, instead of being so sneaky.

Anyone who tries to be secretive will never do any good.

How could he not know this truth after living for who knows how many years?

So he just wants to leave now, get out of here as quickly as possible.

"Fellow Taoist, please!" Changming smiled slightly without any intention of stopping him.

His appearance made Jinglei confused, wondering whether he was overthinking and judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart?

As soon as his figure moved, his Tao force urged him to leave.

"Oh, by the way..." Just when he was about to leave, Changshou suddenly spoke again.

Jing Lei felt a bad feeling in his heart, but he couldn't leave.

"As the deputy city lord of the war zone governor city, you must be well-informed. I want to ask you about the whereabouts of a Hedao city. Can you help me?" Changming said.

"Which Hedao city?" Jing Lei asked.

"Hmm... it seems to be called Yuanxi City?" Changming said in an uncertain tone.

Jing Lei's heart skipped a beat, but he remained calm on the surface, pretending to be thinking: "Yuanxi City? I don't think I've heard of it. Daoyou also know that the number of Hedao cities gathered in the snowfield is extremely large now, and these Hedao cities are roaming around in the snowfield, not necessarily confined to a certain war zone. The Hedao city you are looking for may be in another war zone?"

He cursed in his heart, Shouzhu betrayed me!

If Changming wants to find out about Yuanxi City, there is no need to block here to find him, the deputy city lord. He can go to Shouzhu to find out. The information in the hands of the city lord is much more comprehensive than his own.

But he came to ask me.

This situation is already very obvious. Changming must have asked Shouzhu about this matter at the banquet before, and Shouzhu pushed the matter onto himself, so this happened.

He didn't know too many specific details about Yuanxi's identity and origin, and only learned from Shouzhu that even Shouzhu couldn't afford to offend him.

"No, no, no." Changming raised a finger and shook it, "I got the news that Yuanxi City is very sure that it is in this war zone, and it is in close contact with fellow Taoists."

Just now, he was not sure about the name of Yuanxi City, but now he can be sure of such a thing.

Jinglei frowned and remained silent.

Shouzhu couldn't afford to offend Yuanxi, let alone him.

How dare he say anything nonsense? His own city lord is not a human being. He thinks the hot potato is hot and actually threw it to him.

Changming said leisurely: "Looking at your expression, you seem to know something?"

Jinglei sighed and smiled bitterly: "Changming Daoist, you have wronged me. Although I heard some things from the city lord, they were vague and not true."

Changming nodded slightly: "Shouzhu is indeed tight-lipped. He must have his own concerns for not telling you clearly...Then Daoist should know where I come from."

"Of course I know!" Jinglei nodded. The man in front of him gave up his universe-level Hedao City that year, but he did not become a wandering monk, but joined a Hedao City and was willing to be inferior to others, which was a strange story in the inner world.

So he naturally knew Changming's current background.

"The city lord of that Hedao City and I have the same origin!" Changming continued.

"Ah?" Jinglei was surprised.

He had heard Changming inquire about Yuanxi City before, and thought that Changming had some grudges with Yuanxi, so he wanted to use his intelligence to harm him.

Of course, he didn't dare to say anything casually. If Yuan Xi knew that he had leaked the news, he would be in trouble.

But if these two people came from the same Hedao City, such a thing would not happen.

"What does the Taoist friend mean by looking for Yuan Xi City..." Jing Lei looked at Chang Ming in confusion.

Chang Ming sighed: "Shou Zhu probably didn't tell you what the identity of the Hedao City Lord is, right?"

"Indeed, no."

"She is the wife of our city lord!"

Jing Lei's mouth was so wide that an egg could almost be stuffed in.

He knew that Yuan Xi was not ordinary, but he didn't expect it to be so big!

The wife of the ten great Hedao City Lords! What a concept.

Now among the ten great Hedao Cities in the inner world, there are only three or four who have publicly announced that they have Taoist partners. Looking at the entire inner world, these three or four may not be as strong as the ten great city lords, but their status and position are not inferior at all. To some extent, these people represent the ten great city lords outside.

For a moment, he was sweating profusely, secretly thanking himself for showing goodwill in time, otherwise if Yuan Xi really came to him, Shou Zhu would not be able to protect him.

At the same time, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

The wife of the ten city lords, why didn't she enjoy the good life and power in her own Hedao City and run out? Moreover, the intelligence he got showed that although Yuan Xi City was of high grade, it was at the Hong level, but Yuan Xi didn't have many experts under his command, and it seemed that there were less than 20 people in the whole city.

Is this really the ceremonial guard of the wife of one of the ten city lords?

"Before, my master and the lady had a little conflict, so the lady ran away from home." Changming spoke slowly.

Jing Lei's face was ashen...

Is this the news I can hear?

Can you still live after hearing this?

"My master thought that the lady was just a little irritated and would go back after hanging out outside for a few days, because this kind of thing has happened before..."

Jing Lei was shaking like a sieve.

Daoyou, don't talk anymore, I don't want to listen!
