In the Misty Qi City's City Lord's Mansion, City Lord Xun Gang was reading a piece of information carefully. A person was standing behind him with six large chests beside them.
After a while, Xun Gang put down the report and smiled, "This Liu Xingzhi is quite capable and bold. He's quite interesting."
Standing behind him was the commander of the Misty Qi City's City Guards, Xu Zhi. Both of them were at the Spirit Aperture Realm.
Since the West Desolate Province was at the border, the weakest person who could hold the position of City Lord and Commander of the City Guards was at the Spirit Aperture Realm.
Xu Zhi said in a deep voice, "City Lord, it's fine that Liu Xingzhi eradicated his dissidents. After all, it's an internal matter of the Dark Thunder Guards.
However, he executed the entire Jiang Clan in public, which has already made everyone in Misty Qi City anxious. It's indeed a bit too much.
Also, he actually dared to let the other major clans, other than the Du Clan, smuggle in public. He's simply audacious! "
Xun Gang looked deeply at Xu Zhi and said, "Xu Zhi, you have to know that our City Lord Residence's responsibility is to ensure the stability of Misty Qi City. We don't have to care about anything else.
Even if the major clans smuggle in public, it's the Dark Thunder Guards who are in charge. If this matter is exposed, the Great Supervisor will naturally deal with Liu Xingzhi. We don't have to interfere.
Moreover, you've seen the report on Liu Xingzhi. You think he's reckless and audacious, but I dare to bet that the North Region's Great Supervisor Duan Chun won't find trouble with him.
Not only did a mid-stage Spirit Aperture Realm cultivator quickly secure his position as a supervisor, he even used his authority to make a fortune.
Even the higher-ups will turn a blind eye to it. How can such a person be a fish in a pond? "
The more Xu Zhi listened, the more annoyed he felt. He knew what Xun Gang said, but there was an indescribable feeling in his heart that made him unusually depressed.
However, Xun Gang could see through Xu Zhi's thoughts. He was jealous!
As a supervisor, Leng Shiqi's position was half a level higher than Xu Zhi's, but his cultivation was far inferior to Xu Zhi's.
That was fine.
Xu Zhi was conscientious in managing the City Guards and had never made any mistakes. However, he could only receive a fixed monthly salary.
What about Leng Shiqi?
They had only been in Misty City for a few days, but they had already plundered a large amount of resources. As the saying goes, there is no harm if there is no comparison. Xu Zhi was really a little jealous!
However, Xun Gang didn't expose him. He said, "What I'm curious about is, how will he deal with the Du family?
Back then, it was the Jiang Family and the Du Family who had joined forces to pressure Liu Xingzhi. Now that the Jiang Family had been annihilated, the rest of the families had already sided with Liu Xingzhi.
What would he do with the Du family?
Du Hexiang must be very anxious as well. "
That's right, Du Hechang was very anxious. It could even be described as fear and terror!
At this time, he was galloping on his horse. His horse was not an ordinary horse, but a specially bred spirit horse!
In a sense, the spirit horse could also be reluctantly called a demonic beast that was not ranked.
It could travel hundreds of miles in a day. Of course, it was very rare and could be counted with one's fingers in the entire Misty Qi City.
Du Hechang hurried on his way. His heart was filled with worry and fear.
It was too fast!
Leng Shiqi took down the major families too quickly!
It was so fast that it was beyond his imagination. It was so fast that he was afraid!
In just three days, the original Nine Super Clans had become Seven Super Clans.
Now, the remaining six family heads had already sided with Liu Xingzhi and had even made a fortune because of it.
His Du family had become a loner!
If this went on, Leng Shiqi wouldn't even need to do anything. Just the six major families would slowly crush the Du family!
Now that the Du family was relying on themselves, they would follow in the footsteps of the Jiang family sooner or later. Thus, he needed to seek help.
And the person he sought help from was the third-rate sect, Profound Yang Sect!
Profound Yang Sect was located on Profound Yang Mountain, more than two hundred miles away from Misty Qi City. Du Hechang rode on his spirit horse and could reach it in less than a day.
At night, Du Hechang could already see Profound Yang Mountain. His heart also calmed down a little.
However, what he didn't know was that in the forest that he had just passed, someone was hiding and watching him!
This person was naturally Leng Shiqi.
During the day, after he activated his Fate skill, he saw Du Hechang galloping on his horse.
The reason why Leng Shiqi chose to attack the Jiang family today was because Jiang Xin had beaten up Wei Guan. This was a loss of face for the Dark Lightning Guards, which was also a loss of face for Leng Shiqi.
Secondly, the Jiang family obviously didn't betray the country, but the Du family was really suspicious!
However, the Dark Lightning Guards hadn't found any conclusive evidence yet.
Thus, Leng Shiqi wanted to lure the snake out of its hole. He deliberately chose to destroy the Jiang family to intimidate the other families. At the same time, he wanted to make Du Hechang panic.
Once he panicked, he would naturally seek help.
Whoever he looked for would be the biggest suspect!
As long as he followed this trail, he might really be able to catch a big fish!
Leng Shiqi saw the direction that Du Hechang went and determined that he was most likely going to Profound Yang Sect. Thus, he directly teleported to the vicinity of Profound Yang Mountain.
At this moment, Du Hechang really appeared here!
Leng Shiqi thought to himself. This time, after activating his Fate skill, he came out a bit suddenly. However, in the Dark Lightning Manor, no one would go to his room in a short period of time.
He decided to wait until tomorrow to teleport back. Right now, he was preparing to sneak into Profound Yang Sect to investigate!
When Du Hechang hurriedly entered Profound Yang Sect, he didn't know that there was a tail following behind him.
Profound Yang Sect's Sect Master, Li Xuan Yang, was a grey-haired old man. However, his cultivation was actually at the late stage of the Spirit Aperture Realm!
When he found out that Du Hechang wanted to see him in the middle of the night, he was a bit surprised. When he saw the travel-worn and anxious Du Hechang, he knew that something bad was going to happen.
When Du Hechang saw Li Xuan Yang, he immediately went over and said, "Sect Master Li, something bad has happened!"
Li Xuan Yang sat down and said, "Speak slowly."
Du Hechang said, "Sect Master Li, that matter can't continue.
Not to mention that matter, even my Du family can't protect itself now! "
Li Xuan Yang frowned, "What happened in Misty Qi City?"
Following that, Du Hechang told him about what Leng Shiqi did.
Li Xuan Yang exclaimed in surprise, "This Liu Xingzhi actually has such methods."
Actually, there was something he didn't say in his heart, and that was that Du Hechang was too useless!
"That's right. Originally, Sect Master Li wanted me to work with the other eight great clans to provide Zhu Luguo with the fine iron to make arrows. Actually, everything was going quite smoothly.
However, ever since that Liu Xingzhi came, he turned Misty Qi City upside down. Now, my Du family is the enemy of everyone in Misty Qi City. We could be overthrown at any time!
Sect Master Li, please help this Du! "
Li Xuan Yang's eyes were filled with killing intent, "Hmph, he's just a brat who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth.
Since he doesn't know what's good for him, then let's change the supervisor. The previous supervisor, Sha Yue, will end up like Liu Xingzhi! "
