Chu Yang was a little impatient.

"Whether I was using a fake identity to fool you, you will know it naturally if you inform the city lord. I would not deliberately pretend to be his fellow disciple just to see the city lord. The matter of the master's sect is not a joke. I will not anger the city lord for no reason..."

"That's hard to say. There are always some ignorant and unruly people who make up all kinds of messy excuses to see the city lord. They think that everything will be fine after seeing the city lord, and the city lord will ignore these details afterwards..."

The guard leader said with a stern face: "It's fine if you sneak in and seek death, but you have to implicate us who are guarding the gate... Do you really think it's so easy for us to report to the city lord? Don't you know that we will be punished for disturbing the city lord so casually?"

Chu Yang He frowned and said, "I just asked you to report to the city lord. This is your duty. Why do you have to find so many excuses? Whether the city lord sees me or not is the city lord's business. Whether my identity is problematic or not is my own business. What does it have to do with you?"

"What a joke. How can it have nothing to do with you? The duty of us gatekeepers is to stop you troublemakers! If we disturb the city lord with any troublemaker, he will definitely beat us."

The guard leader sneered a few times, then rubbed his fingers calmly and said calmly, "Do you think it's so easy to report? If we don't pay our brothers for the errands, who would be willing to take this risk for you..."

Hearing this, Chu Yang understood.

These gatekeepers are not afraid to disturb the city lord, but want to ask for some benefits.

The so-called seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door, if he wants to enter the door to see the master, he will inevitably be blackmailed by these watchdogs.

These gatekeepers can make a fortune just by collecting bribes from people entering the door. It seems that this is the case in every world.

Chu Yang felt helpless.

Although he didn't like this kind of behavior, he couldn't make a scene at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion and then force his way in.

After all, you have to look at the owner before you beat the dog, not to mention that he didn't even know Ling Xuzi, so how could he deal with his guard dog casually.

There was no other way, Chu Yang could only reach into his pocket.

Fortunately, he had a lot of Qiankun rings in his pocket, each of which contained a huge amount of treasures from the old sea lion's treasure house.

So, he was a rich man now, and there was absolutely no problem in sending away a few guard dogs.

However, there was no need to give such guard dogs any good things, as too good things would be a waste for them.

But the pitfall was that Chu Yang's Qiankun ring was full of the old sea lion's treasures, and there was no garbage suitable for the foundation-building period.

Chu Yang was thinking about what treasures to take out that would satisfy the appetite of the guard dogs and not appear too high-profile and wasteful, when suddenly another figure walked out of the City Lord's Mansion.

The man looked at Chu Yang and Ao Qianxue, then glared at the guard leader and asked, "What's the matter?"

The guard leader hesitated and said, "Master, these two people said they want to see the city lord. I am questioning their identities and origins..."

"Does it take so long to question their identities and origins? Are you asking for bribes again?"

The master seemed to see through the guard leader's thoughts at a glance, and his tone was very stern.

Chu Yang was relieved immediately.

Well, this is a relief. There is no need to waste time on those watchdogs.

Ling Xuzi's ruling team is not rotten to the core. At least he has a master who seems to be fair and strict around him. He can check and correct some of the evil tendencies in the city lord's mansion and make the administration of Fufeng City a little clearer.

After a quick look with his spiritual sense, Chu Yang immediately understood the master's realm.

He was a cultivator at the Nascent Soul stage, and was a master to Ling Xuzi, a cultivator at the middle stage of the Spiritualization stage. His status was just right.

At the same time, the master also secretly used his spiritual sense to investigate Chu Yang and Ao Qianxue.

Of course, a Nascent Soul cultivator could not see through their cultivation. The master immediately understood that the two people in front of him were at least masters of the Spiritualization stage.

The master did not dare to neglect him, and hurriedly bowed to Chu Yang and said, "Do you two guests want to see my master?"

Chu Yang also bowed seriously and said, "I am Xu Zhu, a fellow villager of Senior Ling Xuzi. I passed by Fufeng City today and heard that Senior Ling Xuzi happened to be the city lord of Fufeng City, so I came to visit him..."

The master was slightly surprised: "Ah, it turns out that you are the fellow villager of the city lord. I neglected you, I neglected you... Please come in quickly."

It seemed that there was no need to verify the identities of Chu Yang and Ao Qianxue. The master immediately welcomed them into the mansion.

Chu Yang couldn't help but sigh in his heart. It's true that it's easier to see the King of Hell than to deal with the little devil.

The guard dogs didn't know how high the sky was and how deep the earth was. They only thought that their city lord was invincible in their own territory, so they didn't take those ordinary-looking visitors seriously.

On the contrary, a Yuanying-stage master like the master could easily see the identity of those strong men, so it was easier for him to respect and be polite to the guests.

So, only a frog at the bottom of the well would be arrogant. Once he climbed to a higher level, he would know that there are always people outside the sky and people outside the people, and he would understand the truth that people should be humble.

The guards all stepped aside and dared not say a word.

Chu Yang didn't care about these guard dogs. He followed the master into the city lord's mansion.

After arranging the two to sit in the living room, the master immediately said, "Please sit for a while. I will go to inform the city lord now."

Chu Yang said politely: "Master, please excuse me."

The master immediately ordered the maid to serve tea, then resigned with a smile.

After the master left, Ao Qianxue said softly to Chu Yang: "The way you human race deal with things is really peaceful. If we were in the Endless Sea, the situation just now would have been a fight. No wonder the Endless Sea There are wars everywhere in the sea, but the human race’s territory looks much calmer.”

"Human beings do know how to weigh the pros and cons better, and will not start a war unless necessary. They mainly use restraint and deterrence to control each other. However, compared to wars on the surface, secret conspiracies are more terrifying and more difficult to guard against... …”

Speaking of this, Chu Yang's heart moved slightly. Isn't it inappropriate for him to come to the door so recklessly?

Although Ling Xuzi is a Chinese monk, he has disappeared from the Qingxu world for so many years. It is difficult to determine his identity and position now, and he may not have much goodwill towards him, a fellow countryman.

What's more, Ling Xuzi's identity has not been truly confirmed, and he cannot be sure that the lord of Fufeng City is Ling Xuzi himself.

Therefore, his behavior today is really a bit outrageous.
