In the Misty Qi City's City Lord Manor, the City Lord, Xun Gang, was listening to his subordinate's report with a displeased expression.
He was displeased because the commander of the city guards, Xu Zhi, didn't show up today!
According to the City Lord Manor's rules, Xu Zhi had to train the city guards every morning and arrange for them to patrol the city. However, it was already late in the morning and Xu Zhi still hadn't shown up!
He didn't even look for Xu Zhi in his residence.
"Where did this Xu Zhi go?" Xun Gang's heart was filled with both doubt and anger.
He said, "Tell me Xu Zhi's recent whereabouts."
The person beside him, who was the vice commander of the city guards, Ning Xiu, took out a report. "This subordinate has already prepared it. Please take a look, City Lord."
Xun Gang looked at Ning Xiu meaningfully and took the report. When he saw that Xu Zhi had gone to look for Leng Shiqi, he frowned.
He thought to himself, "Xu Zhi still went to provoke Liu Xingzhi. Could it be related to Liu Xingzhi that he didn't show up today?"
Just as he was thinking, a servant outside reported, "City Lord, the Dark Thunder Guard's supervisor, Sir Liu, requests an audience."
"Hm?"
Xun Gang was just thinking about Leng Shiqi, and now Leng Shiqi came to his door. Could it be that this matter really had something to do with him?
Xun Gang said, "Please go to the main hall."
"Yes."
"Oh, Ning Xiu. Xu Zhi isn't here, so I'll leave the city guards to you for the time being. I'll go see the guest first."
Ning Xiu was delighted and bowed. "This subordinate will take his leave."
Not long after Leng Shiqi sat down in the main hall of the City Lord Manor, Xun Gang walked in. "I'm ashamed to have kept Sir Liu waiting."
Misty Qi City's City Lord Manor was much stronger than Dark Thunder Manor, but in terms of official ranks, Leng Shiqi and Xun Gang were on the same level.
However, as the supervisor of the Dark Thunder Guard, Leng Shiqi had the right to supervise the City Lord Manor, so Xun Gang had to be polite when he saw Leng Shiqi.
Leng Shiqi's first impression of Xun Gang was that he was an 'old fox'!
He was much harder to deal with than Xu Zhi.
The two of them praised each other for a while. Seeing that it was about time, Xun Gang asked, "Lord Liu is supervising the surrounding cities and must be very busy. May I know why you are here today?"
Leng Shiqi smiled and said, "You flatter me. I don't visit you without a reason. Today, I have something to ask of you."
"Oh?
What is it that even the Dark Thunder Guards can't solve? This Xun is willing to hear the details, "Xun Gang said with a serious expression.
Leng Shiqi also said seriously, "Actually, I'm here to ask City Lord Xun to help me deal with someone."
"Who is it?"
"Li Xuan Yang, Sect Leader of the Xuanyang Sect!" Leng Shiqi said word by word.
Xun Gang was trying to guess Leng Shiqi's intentions. "Li Xuanyang is the sect master of a third-rate sect. Does Lord Liu want to deal with him?"
Leng Shiqi understood Xun Gang's meaning. "The Xuanyang Sect secretly colluded with other countries and collected a large amount of iron that is forbidden by the dynasty. I'm preparing to capture them.
I'm ashamed to say that Li Xuanyang is a Spirit Aperture Realm late stage expert. No one in my Dark Thunder Residence can deal with him.
That's why I'm here to ask City Lord Xun to help. "
Xun Gang heard this and asked, "Lord Liu wants to deal with a Spirit Cultivator Sect. This is not a small matter. Does Lord Liu have evidence?"
"The evidence is conclusive!" Leng Shiqi said with certainty.
"Then this Xun is even more confused. If this is true, Lord Liu only needs to report this to the North Region's Great Supervisor Duan Chun. He will naturally deal with the Xuanyang Sect."
Leng Shiqi didn't hide his thoughts and said directly, "Lord Duan Chun can indeed deal with the Xuanyang Sect easily. Then I won't be able to get much credit."
At this time, Xun Gang also saw the ambition in Leng Shiqi, but he said, "Lord Liu is right. But then again, this matter has nothing to do with the City Lord Mansion.
To say the least, even if I help Lord Liu to deal with Li Xuanyang, in the end, the credit will still be yours. Our City Lord Mansion won't get any benefits. "
Leng Shiqi knew this would happen. "City Lord Xun, may I ask who is stronger between you and Li Xuanyang?"
It was reasonable to say that this kind of question was impolite, but Xun Gang knew that Leng Shiqi must have a reason to ask this. He pondered for a moment and said, "Li Xuanyang and I are both at the eighth level of Spirit Aperture Realm. But as the leader of a sect, he must enjoy more resources than me. In terms of fighting power, I'm afraid he is stronger than me."
Xun Gang didn't hide it and said it honestly. This point alone showed that his breadth of mind was incomparable to ordinary people.
Leng Shiqi said, "May I ask how long it will take for City Lord Xun to break through to Gang Spirit Realm?"
Gang Spirit Realm!
Hearing these three words, a trace of loneliness flashed through Xun Gang's eyes. This time he didn't answer, but asked back, "Why do you say so, Lord Liu?"
Leng Shiqi chuckled, "If City Lord Xun helps me to deal with Li Xuanyang, I have a way to get the First Origin Nine Aperture Crystal for City Lord Xun!"
"What?!"
Even Xun Gang, the City Lord at the late stage of Spirit Aperture Realm, was surprised when he heard the words First Origin Nine Aperture Crystal!
He looked straight at Leng Shiqi and asked in a deep voice, "Can Lord Liu really get the First Origin Nine Aperture Crystal?"
Leng Shiqi met Xun Gang's eyes and said, "Absolutely!"
"Good!
I promise you! "Xun Gang finally couldn't refuse the opportunity to break through to Gang Spirit Realm, so he agreed.
"However, I will only deal with Li Xuanyang, and I won't care about the others.
Besides, this is my personal matter, and it has nothing to do with the City Lord Mansion or the City Guard. "
"I understand. When I'm ready to take action, I will send someone to inform City Lord Xun.
Goodbye. "
Leng Shiqi cupped his hands and strode out of the City Lord Mansion.
It was worth it to win over Xun Gang this time. Although he was still far less powerful than Xuanyang Sect, he had a way to lure Li Xuanyang out!
At that time, it was not impossible to destroy Xuanyang Sect by attacking them one by one!
After returning to the Dark Thunder Mansion, Leng Shiqi continued his closed-door training after explaining everything. He still had more than 30 spiritual skills to deduce.
Moreover, the plan against Xuanyang Sect needed time to be carried out slowly. He could take advantage of this time to improve his strength as much as possible.
The more powerful he was, the smoother the plan would be!
In the blink of an eye, one month had passed.
At this time, Leng Shiqi was soaking in a large tub filled with light brown liquid. Leng Shiqi's body was surrounded by a faint Devil Qi.
The Devil Qi was constantly absorbing the power in the liquid and integrating it into Leng Shiqi's body. He was using the medicinal bath to strengthen his body.
At the same time, he was also running the Evil Nine Secret Beast Blood Record to cultivate his spiritual energy. In his Spiritual Fantasy World, his spiritual body was also deducing his spiritual energy.
He was killing three birds with one stone!
However, at this moment, he suddenly felt the Poisonous Heart Control Insect in his heart move!
