Mortal counterattack

Chapter 217: Winning over

"Huh, what's the point? That old guy was occupying his position and didn't give up. He should have retreated long ago. Now you're here just in time."

"But I can't squeeze others out for no reason."

"What's the point? The position of deputy city lord is occupied by a capable person. As long as you can defeat him with force, others can't say anything."

Then the city lord told him the specific plan. It turned out that the city lord and the deputy city lord had never dealt with each other. He had long wanted to squeeze him out of the position of deputy city lord and replace him with an obedient one of his own.

However, none of his men were useful. Now that he saw Zhou Chen, his hope was rekindled.

Seeing the worry on Zhou Chen's face, the city lord smiled and said, "Don't worry, the strength of the old man is only in the early stage of the fourth level, and he was injured some time ago, and his combat power is greatly reduced. If you challenge him now, you will definitely win."

This guy is really insidious. I have already given him the other half of the map, but he still doesn't believe me, so he still has to test him. If he loses to the deputy city lord, wouldn't it save him trouble?

"Then I'll try."

Then Zhou Chen was arranged to go down to rest. After Zhou Chen left, Xiaohu said, "Sir, why are you doing this?"

The city lord took out the map given by Zhou Chen and said with a smile, "Do you think this person really came to seek refuge with me?"

"Sir, you are suspicious." Before he finished speaking, the city lord came to his ear and whispered a few times. Xiaohu nodded and left.

After leaving, Xiaohu came to Zhou Chen for a drink. Zhou Chen did not refuse. Now with his skills, ordinary drinks could not get him drunk at all.

However, Xiaohu soon got drunk. After getting drunk, Xiaohu told Zhou Chen a secret, saying that the city lord had a treasure. If he could get this treasure, he would be absolutely safe against the deputy city lord.

Although he was not interested, Zhou Chen still asked, "I wonder what kind of treasure it is?"

Xiaohu took a few steps closer to Zhou Chen, whispered "God Killing Order" in his ear, and then returned to his seat.

Since it is a treasure of the demon clan, Zhou Chen 90% cannot use it, but in order not to arouse suspicion, Zhou Chen still pretends to be curious and asks, "What is that?"

"This God-killing Order is a magic weapon of our demon clan. Once activated, it can improve our cultivation level in a short period of time."

"It's really a good treasure. In that case, I'll go to the city lord to borrow it for use."

Seeing that Zhou Chen was about to go directly to the city lord, Xiaohu stood up and hugged his shoulders and said with a smile, "Brother Zhou, there is no need to go. That thing is very important to adults. Most people don't know his existence at all. If I hadn't followed the city lord for many years, I don't know either".

"What should I do?"

Xiaohu thought for a while and whispered a few words in his ear again. Zhou Chen was shocked after hearing this, "Brother, this is not good. What if the city lord finds out?"

"Don't worry, outsiders won't be able to see this treasure after it's used. Even if you use it in front of the city lord, he won't know."

Half an hour later, Xiao Hu crawled on the table and fell asleep. Zhou Chen called a few times and saw no response, so he found someone to send him back.

weeks Don't worry about stealing something and just run away.

When the city lord is angry, he will have no good fruits to eat, unless he did not tell himself this matter intentionally, but someone instigated him behind the scenes, and the person who instigated him to do this was undoubtedly the city lord.

"It seems that the city lord is still wary of me and wants to test me to see if I will betray him for a treasure." Although Zhou Chen had already handed him the map of Yin Yang Xuan Bing, it was just Half a map is, to put it bluntly, useless at all.

Just as he was thinking, a demonic aura suddenly appeared in the room. Zhou Chen was shocked and the demonic aura was released from his body, ready to take action at any time.

"Don't get me wrong, little friend, I don't mean any harm."

"Hmph, you suddenly appeared in my room in the middle of the night, and you said you didn't mean any harm. Do you think I will believe you?"

"I was rude, but it's not convenient to come to you during the day, so I can only come late at night. I hope you can forgive me." After saying that, he saluted Zhou Chen.

Seeing that he really had no intention of taking action, Zhou Chen lowered his guard a little, but his insightful eyes had been opened. If he dared to make a sudden attack, Zhou Chen would be able to detect it immediately.

"I don't know why you came to me"?

The demon didn't hide anything and said directly, "I am Wu Meng, the deputy city lord of Qiufeng City."

At this moment, Zhou Chen's aura surged again. Upon seeing this, Wu Meng immediately smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, I'm not here to cause trouble for you."

"The Lord of the City is really well-informed."

"Haha, brother Zhou, how about we make a deal."

Then the deputy city lord expressed his thoughts. It turned out that the city lord of Qiufeng City was not City Lord Guo, but Wu Meng.

Ten years ago, because of a moment of weakness, he took in the current Lord Guo. At that time, he didn't know who he offended, and he was seriously injured and fled all the way to Qiufeng City. He was kind enough to take him in, but he didn't expect to wait until he recovered from his injuries. Later, he even coveted the position of city lord.

Secretly bribed Wu Meng's subordinates in private, and finally launched a sneak attack while Wu Meng was drunk and took away the position of city lord. Fortunately, Wu Meng still had some loyal subordinates who fought to protect the lord. Although they escaped, the position of city lord was lost to him. Seize the past, and I can only serve as a deputy city lord with no real power.

Zhou Chen was not interested in his experience and said directly, "What does this have to do with me? If you are angry, just go and seek revenge on him."

"In fact, it has been almost the same in the past few years." Then the true energy in his body burst out again. Zhou Chen found that his strength had reached the peak of the fourth grade. He collected his breath in just a moment.

"I have gathered enough strength. The only thing missing now is that he is at the half-step third grade, while I am at the peak of the fourth grade. When the time comes, I will still not be his opponent."

"So I want to ask you for a favor."

Zhou Chen directly refused, "You said he is a half-step third grade, what can I do to help."

"Didn't he ask you to challenge me? At that time, I will deliberately lose to you and then pretend to die. At that time, his trust in you will definitely increase greatly. At that time, as long as", the last voice was very low, Zhou Chen could barely hear it.

After that, he took out three silver needles from the storage ring and handed them to Zhou Chen. Zhou Chen took the silver needles and put them into his own storage ring. "Okay, don't forget what you promised me."

"Haha, don't worry, although that thing is precious, it is useless to me."

The next day, before dawn, Zhou Chen was practicing in his room. Suddenly, he heard something strange. He didn't open his eyes, but he found something unusual through his eyes of insight. At this time, a female demon in black appeared in his room.

He knew this female demon. It was Xiaorou, the female demon he saw yesterday. At this time, he looked at Zhou Chen, who was practicing with his eyes closed, with a fierce look on his face.

Zhou Chen knew without asking that he must have learned that the jackal demon was captured by him, so he died at the hands of the tiger demon. This is to avenge his lover.

He took out a green dagger. The dagger looked strange and it was not an ordinary thing. The moment he approached, Zhou Chen's body disappeared on the spot, and the next moment he appeared directly behind him.
