The Second City Lord said, "The Yuanli resident personnel are doing this on purpose. They want to provoke us in Suiyi City. If we suppress them, Yuanli will have an excuse to attack us. If we turn a blind eye to Yuanli's actions, we will be like boiling a frog in warm water, slowly annexing us in name only."
"What should we do?" All the city lords looked at the grand city lord.
The city lord felt a headache and he also wanted to know what to do.
He didn't dare to offend Yuanli. Although Suiyi City looked like a powerful force, it was completely vulnerable in front of Yuanli.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise, and the expressions of the ten city lords changed slightly.
The loud noise was the signal sent by the city guards of Suiyi City, indicating that there was something that the city guards could not solve and that required the intervention of at least one city lord.
There were two more similar loud noises in succession.
In other words, the city guards sent out three signals, and three means that, according to the judgment of the city guards, ten city lords need to come forward together, or the grand city lord needs to come forward on behalf of all the city lords.
It also means that the matter is serious and the situation is difficult to control.
And the situation that occurred in Suiyi City must be related to Yuanli.
In the courtyard where Kuang Lan and Chu Nan were, everyone was watching the brilliant signal fireworks blooming in the sky. Kuang Lan knew a lot about Suiyi City. She explained, "Those were sent by the Suiyi City guards. The simultaneous sending of three signals meant that something major had happened in the city, and the ten city lords needed to intervene together."
Li Xian frowned. "With the strength of Suiyi City, what kind of situation would require the joint intervention of all ten city lords?"
Kuang Lan said, "Maybe it has something to do with Yuanli, otherwise no one and no force nearby would dare to provoke Suiyi City."
As she spoke, she glanced at Chu Nan. She was born and raised in the secret realm and had received favors from Qin Keqing. She knew about the grudge between Qingxuan Sect and Yuanli.
She was very curious about how Chu Nan would deal with the relationship between Qingxuan and Yuanli.
Hearing the word "Elemental Power", Chu Nan raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "There's something going on, let's go and see it."
In a wide alley in Suiyi City, a large space was cleared. In the space, Qian Duoduo, Ye Chen's little fan girl Cheng Chen, and Qiao Deng, three Qingxuan disciples, were holding swords.
Qian Duoduo and Jordan were injured, and Cheng Chen's hair and dress showed signs of struggle.
Standing opposite them was a wounded young man, a middle-aged man with an aura of his own, and a seriously injured young man lying on the ground.
They were surrounded by three Suiyi City guards, waiting for the arrival of the Suiyi City Lord.
A lot of people gathered around them.
"What are you waiting for? They injured two of my men, why don't you arrest the three of them?" The middle-aged man pointed at the captain of the city guard, as if giving a direct order.
Chu Nan and others also came here. Kuang Lan had her own aura. When she came, everyone made way for her. So Kuang Lan, Chu Nan and others came to a good position in front with a wide view to prepare to eat melons.
"Senior Brother Chu Nan." A Qingxuan disciple greeted him.
"What happened?" Chu Nan looked at Qian Duoduo and the other two in the field and asked the disciples around him.
"Those two Yuanli bastards suddenly attacked and forcibly dragged Junior Sister Cheng Chen into the courtyard, intending to commit a crime. Junior Brother Qian Duoduo caught them, and they immediately attacked Junior Brother Qian Duoduo. Luckily, Senior Brother Qiao Deng was nearby and rushed over."
Chu Nan nodded, but did not rush to show up. He wanted to see how Suiyi City would handle this matter.
His gaze shifted to the three Yuanli people again, his eyes flickering.
At this time, the ten city lords also arrived at the scene. The people of Suiyi City were shocked. They rarely saw the ten city lords of Suiyi City appear at the same time. Some people who came later to watch the fun did not understand.
"What could possibly cause the ten city lords to show up at the same time?"
"Except for the Yuanli staff, who else can have this honor?" Someone said with sarcasm, expressing great dissatisfaction with Yuanli.
"Tsk tsk, it looks like those two Yuanli guys got hurt."
"Of course I do. I've always thought Suiyi City was theirs. Countless girls were raped and murdered by them, and in the end, no one could do anything about them. Suiyi City simply turned a blind eye. But this time, I've hit a wall."
"What do you mean?" Those who didn't know the whole story were eager to see the situation and had been expecting the almighty Yuanli to be humiliated.
Some people were puzzled and said, "Although it was the Yuanli people who were at fault, if it had been in the past, Suiyi City would have colluded with Yuanli and followed the orders of the Yuanli resident to arrest the three people opposite. Why is it that the city guards seem to have no say in the matter now?"
"Hey, hey," someone who roughly knew the truth chuckled, "That's because without the city lord's permission, the city guards wouldn't dare offend the other side."
"Fuck, who is that person? Even Suiyi City doesn't dare to offend them casually?"
"And the fact that the ten city lords showed up at the same time means this matter is not simple. The other party has a background, and a very powerful background."
"Could it be the Kuanglan Village Lord's men? I heard that the Kuanglan Village Lord entered the city."
"Even if she is the leader of Kuanglan Village, is she really worthy of the ten city lords coming forward at the same time? Does she dare to really offend Yuanli? When her disciples are bullied by Yuanli, she can only endure it."
Some of Kuanglan's supporters immediately retorted, "Kuanglan Village Master is unparalleled in friendship and unruly. How could she sit idly by while someone bullies her subordinates? You are underestimating Kuanglan Village Master too much."
On the field.
The middle-aged man was the person in charge of Yuanli's resident affairs in Suiyi City. When he saw the ten city lords appear, he waved his sleeves and pointed at Qian Duoduo and the other two, saying,
"You've arrived just in time. They injured two of my disciples. According to the rules of Suiyi City, their wealth should be confiscated and they should be imprisoned for three years."
Cheng Chen immediately explained, "They were the ones who were trying to do something illegal. We were acting in self-defense. We should have detained them."
When the skinny monkey saw that the other party was from Yuanli, he didn't ask any questions and directly pointed at Qian Duoduo and the other two and ordered, "Take them to Suiyi City's Sky Prison."
The other nine city lords did not speak, only the grand city lord frowned slightly, but did not object.
He also knew that what Cheng Chen said was true, and that the people causing the trouble were Yuanli's people, but so what? He couldn't possibly imprison Yuanli's people.
He was also annoyed. How could such a thing be worth calling all the ten city lords over? He should just lock him up. Now everyone was watching. Wouldn't the reputation of Suiyi City be damaged again?
How could Qian Duoduo, Cheng Chen and Qiao Deng just sit there and wait for death? The spiritual power of the three of them surged.
And seeing that the situation was getting out of control, Cheng Chen gritted his teeth, and his ring flashed. A signal gun appeared, and he raised it to the sky. A signal firework bloomed in the sky.
The city lord's expression suddenly changed. The release of the signal fireworks meant that they were not a small group, but they might have a powerful force. He asked, "Who are you?"
"Qingxuan Sword Sect!"
Upon hearing this, many people's pupils contracted.
