Zhang Xing and the others returned to the City Lord's Mansion and made some simple arrangements. Murphy was released, and he knelt down in shock with tears in his eyes.
"Endo, draw up a list and send an invitation to all the families and forces in the city. Tell them that I'm back and let them do as they see fit."
After talking with Endo, Zhang Xing found out which families and empires these new forces represented.
But it was impossible to kill all of them. After all, the more people the better for the development of Redbud City.
It was mainly to warn and pacify them.
Killing a few leaders and intimidating the rest would be enough.
The list was quickly drawn up. Zhang Xing took it and looked at it. Wow, there were more than 30 forces from the other second-tier countries, and there were only a dozen or so local forces.
If Zhang Xing really died, Redbud City would be in a period of unrest.
Only when these forces fought to the death would a new overlord be born and new rules be set.
Elder Hontais, the number one family in the second-tier Ice and Fire Country, was having a meeting with his subordinates.
"You are all talents carefully selected by the family. In the future, you must work together to achieve something.
"Now that we have a firm foothold in Redbud City, it's time for us to show our strength.
"We must fight for what we should fight for. Ignore the people from the other empires and families. Kill anyone who disagrees!
"Of course, there are also generous rewards for transferring you to such a dangerous place. Including your family in the imperial capital, the treatment will be tripled.
"Thank you, Lord Elder, for your consideration and care. We will live up to the expectations of the family and Lord Elder!"
Just as they were expressing their ambitions, a subordinate's report came from outside the door.
"Lord Elder, Murphy from the City Lord's Mansion has arrived with more than 200 people from the Lingxi Knights."
"Murphy?
Isn't he in prison? "
Elder Hontais muttered strangely.
"What is he doing here?"
"Lord Elder, Murphy said that he wants you to go out and receive an invitation."
"Invitation?
What invitation? "Hontais frowned and asked in confusion.
"I don't know. They didn't say anything either. But looking at Mo Fei's appearance, it is obvious that he has just been released from prison. There are scars and blood stains on his face."
"Could it be that Mo Fei has surrendered to Horton?"
With questions in mind, Hontais stood up and walked out.
After all, Horton was the new City Lord and the local tyrant. He still had to give him some face.
When the group of people arrived at the gate of the mansion, they saw Mo Fei sitting on the back of the single-horned rhino arrogantly with a roll of paper in his hand.
"Hmph!
What's there to be proud of? In front of absolute strength, you'll still kneel down and lick Horton's feet. "
Hontais thought disdainfully in his heart, but a bright smile appeared on his face.
"Haha, congratulations on seeing the light of day again, Commander Murphy. Please come in!"
"There's no need for that. I'm here to deliver an invitation under the orders of the City Lord. I have official business to attend to, so I won't stand on ceremony with Elder Hontais."
As he spoke, he flicked his wrist, and the roll of paper floated towards Hontais.
Hontais took it and frowned. This is the invitation?
No matter how he looked at it, it looked like toilet paper.
An inexplicable anger suddenly emerged from his head. Horton was too much. Why did he suddenly do this? What was the meaning of this?
When he opened it, he was even angrier.
There was only a short line of words on it: Hontais to the City Lord's Mansion to receive orders.
Signed: Endo.
Hontais raised his eyebrows, and his face turned cold. Who was Endo to dare to order him in such a tone?
