Whether it was the ordinary citizens or the high officials of Redbud City, all of them had personally witnessed the powerful strength of the City Lord, as well as his insufferably arrogant … tyranny!
How could their emotions be clearly expressed with just one word? They all spontaneously organized themselves and came to the spacious plaza in front of the City Lord's Mansion. They raised banners and slogans: Unity is strength, fight for Zhang Xing!
Facing these enthusiastic people, Zhang Xing had to express himself. Although these people were not of any substantial help to him, their feelings were understandable.
Who didn't wish to obtain the protection of a super expert?
The stronger the City Lord was, the more secure they felt.
He walked to the front of the crowd and had zero contact with the people, making him seem more approachable.
When Zhang Xing walked down from the high platform and arrived in front of them and waved with a smile, the crowd erupted again.
"Greetings to Lord City Lord!"
All of the citizens knelt down at the same time and spoke in unison to express their utmost respect.
"Rise, all of you. After being the City Lord for so long, this is the first time I am meeting everyone. I can't stand this kind of enthusiasm, hehe!"
Zhang Xing raised his hands and chuckled, indicating for everyone to stand up.
Feeling Zhang Xing's serious and sincere smile, everyone's nervous mood relaxed, and they stood up one after another.
Lord Zhang Xing was different from other City Lords. He had a special kind of affinity that made people want to surround him and do something for him.
As long as Zhang Xing gave an order, they would be willing to climb a mountain of swords or dive into a pot of boiling oil.
This was probably the so-called charisma of a person.
"Lord City Lord, after witnessing your supreme magic power today, we are deeply impressed. Please accept our blessings!"
Two ordinary young women dressed in coarse gray clothes were holding an exquisite flower garland, intending to put it on Zhang Xing.
Zhang Xing did not decline and slightly lowered his head to show his approval.
The moment the flower garland was placed on Zhang Xing's neck …
Ka Ka!
Two subtle sounds rang out. At the same time, the flower garland quickly wrapped around Zhang Xing's upper body, tying him up like a dumpling.
While the crowd was still in shock, a few cold glints flashed in the crowd and shot toward Zhang Xing's glabella, throat, and heart.
Puff!
The three swords hit the target at the same time, and only a dull sound was heard.
"Ah!
Assassins! "
The crowd began to panic, instinctively dodging in all directions.
The three people who appeared in front of Zhang Xing had thin faces. Their eyes were cold, and the corners of their mouths curled up in a cruel arc.
"City Lord Zhang Xing, to be able to die at the hands of our Three Phantom Killers, your life will not be in vain."
"In order to assassinate you, we specially hired a Mechanism Grandmaster to create the Thousand Vine Ring and sprinkled it with high-grade Bone Softening Powder. No matter how strong your cultivation is, you will still be affected."
"The Ring of a Thousand Vines is not a magic tool. It is made from vines that have been growing for thousands of years. The vines are covered with tiny thorns, and the poison on them is extraordinary."
"It can paralyze your nerves and body, making you unable to use your strength."
"Oh, right. Regardless of whether it's Demonic Energy or Battle Energy, both have a suppressive effect. Unless you're able to attain the Exalt Realm. Haha!"
"But, that's impossible. According to the analysis of our intelligence experts, there's an eighty percent chance that you're an early Combat King warrior."
"There's a seventy percent chance that your Demonic Energy is an early Grand Magus."
"There's a seventy percent chance that your Mental Energy has reached the terrifying Unity of Heaven and Man."
"I have to say, at such a young age, you've reached a realm that others can't reach in their lifetime. It's really shocking."
"But, unfortunately, there's only one outcome for those who go against our assassin group, death!"
