Chapter 97



He Fang has always believed that violence is also a way to solve problems, and this time Chong Xiao and Chong Ying acted decisively to destroy the entire Guangming City, which was already completely dead. Although it was a helpless act, it was also the best solution.

Therefore, He Fang did not think that there was anything that needed to be criticized about the brothers Chongxiao and Chongying.

"We are handsome?" After hearing what He Fang said, Chong Ying looked into He Fang's eyes with confusion and a hint of joy rising up in his eyes. "Lord City Lord, are you telling the truth?"

"Even if it is violence, it is violence you committed of your own will. I think this is the result of your judgment. Did I tell you that?" He Fang looked at the boy in front of him, smiled and sighed. He couldn't help but love his N-PC. "I will respect your choice."

Chongying's eyes, which had been somewhat gloomy for some time, suddenly sparkled, or rather, became more beautiful than before.

It was as if the sunlight that broke through the clouds completely illuminated the ground. Chong Ying clearly did not raise the corners of his mouth, but He Fang could clearly feel the brilliance in the depths of Chong Ying's eyes at this moment.

"My Lord City Lord." Chong Ying suddenly took two steps forward and opened his arms, as if asking for a hug.

He Fang instinctively opened his arms to hold the child in his arms, but what surprised him even more was that a hand suddenly grabbed him from behind, just at the moment Chongying jumped into his arms.

He Fang blinked his eyes, leaning against Chong Xiao from behind and being embraced by Chong Ying in front, feeling helpless. This pair of brothers even had the same posture when asking for a hug all day long.

But He Fang looked at the gray task above their heads and raised his eyebrows slightly. It hasn't been completed yet?

But it looks like the mission has obviously been completed. At least Chongxiao and Chongying look very happy now.

He Fang thought about it carefully, and wondered if it was because of the mission he had announced before. His mission was to resolve the issue of Guangming City this time, but now Guangming City had indeed been "resolved", but it did not mean it was over.

Zhang Guangshi ran away.

He Fang looked at the grey question mark. Although the mission was not completed, there was some progress after all. Moreover, the mission had a great impact on N-PC. If it took a longer time and could bring more qualitative changes to the two N-PCs, then he could still afford to spend this time.

He specifically washed up and ate before going online, and also increased the speed of the game so that he could complete this task in one go.

He Fang looked at the Bright City, which was still being disintegrated bit by bit by the Nightmare Beast's weapons, and sighed silently. However, no matter what game it was, he didn't like the plot of directly destroying the city. At that time, only 10,000 old, weak, and sick people were able to support the already destroyed Hope City. 100,000 people...

One hundred thousand people.

Even though I knew in my heart that these were just rats that plundered other cities, I still felt deeply moved when I actually faced their death.

So Chong Xiao probably put the mask on him to prevent him from seeing all this.

Although her loyalty level is less than 600, she is surprisingly gentle.

"Did you let Zhang Guangshi go on purpose?" He Fang asked.

"Yes." Chongying got out of Hefang's arms and stared at Hefang. "Brother said, since Zhang Guangshi is planning to turn us into nightmare beasts, he must have a backup plan. We have to wait and see what he wants to do."

He Fang's eyes were filled with surprise: "You guys have actually considered a lot. You've even thought of such details?"

A hint of red appeared on Chongying's cheeks. "Although we are happy that the city lord praised us, in fact, this is what Zhu Yan told us before we left. He said that Zhang Guangshi might have a conspiracy, so we can play a long game to catch a big fish."

"But being able to make such a decision proves that you have also thought about it." He Fang patted Chongying's head. He was never stingy with his praise for his N-PC. "But he led us to this place. To be honest, I really didn't think about it."

Chong Ying blinked and said, "Zhu Yan said that reality will not develop as expected, so we must know how to adapt to circumstances. Even Zhu Yan did not predict that the entire city would be transformed into nightmare beasts."

He Fang looked at the ball of light, then turned away and didn't want to look at it anymore.

"My brother said that these nightmare beasts unexpectedly still retain the thinking and combat capabilities of humans, and they can cooperate with each other, so there must be some conspiracy to lead us here, maybe they also want to parasitize us, so that we can go back openly and parasitize ordinary people without restraint."

He Fang listened to Chong Ying's words and nodded.

"But what if we didn't make it?" Chong Ying suddenly said.

He Fang was stunned. He suddenly looked at Chong Ying. What did you mean he didn't make it?

"If you say that Zhang Guangshi is a very smart person, Zhu Yan said that smart people never have only one plan. Since they chose to use a strategy, there must be a reason." Chongying looked up at Chongxiao, "Brother said that all these nightmare beasts underestimated him, and after seeing his strength, they showed signs of running away."

He Fang's eyes gradually widened. Did these people actually underestimate their fighting power from the beginning?

Smart people will not underestimate a person's ability casually. In order to ensure completeness, they must have another plan.

"So, could it be that they have other preparations, such as what to do to Hope City?" Chong Ying pondered.

He Fang was stunned for a moment.

"Although the city lord said that everything will be handed over to us this time, we are also deeply aware of our shortcomings." Chongying's fingers quietly grabbed He Fang's clothes, and he asked tentatively, "Can we ask you for help?"

At this moment, He Fang felt that he was once again moved by the charm of his N-PC.

Willing to make progress and also willing to show weakness. He originally thought that the Chong brothers should be very stubborn in their algorithms, but he didn't expect that they would actually humble themselves and ask for help from others. When He Fang heard that the Chong brothers would actually take the initiative to ask Zhu Yan for advice, he was very surprised.

"Okay." He Fang smiled. "I never said that you can't ask for help outside the venue, right?"

Chongying let go of He Fang, and Chongxiao also let go at the same time. He Fang stood up on his own again.

He Fang heard Chongying ask, "Lord City Lord, do you trust Hope City wholeheartedly?"

He Fang blinked, and after a moment he slowly understood what Chong Ying meant.

If Chongying's guess is true, then it is very likely that Hope City or Angel City has been attacked by the mastermind behind the scenes. So it would be better for them to go back and take charge of the situation just in case.

But if He Fang 100% trusts the people in the city, even those who might have been spies, then their goals will change.

His answer will determine the decision of the Chong brothers.

Suddenly, He Fang felt a sense of accomplishment as the city lord.

It's really good to feel that all his subordinates are working towards his goals.

He Fang thought for a moment and said, "I trust them very much."

Chong Ying blinked his eyes, and the light of the City of Light around him gradually dimmed in his bright pupils. The huge city had completely turned into a ruin.

However, Chongying smiled, a smile that was different from before: "Okay, Lord City Lord."

He Fang hopes that his trust can give his N-PC a good direction.

The Chong brothers finally chose to chase Zhang Guangshi.

It is said that Chongying installed a locator on Zhang Guangshi from the beginning.

Therefore, it is very likely that the Chong brothers originally intended to track down Zhang Guangshi, but they asked one more question because of He Fang.

"But how do we get there now?" He Fang asked.

The three of them stood there quietly, looking at their vehicle which was also torn into pieces without a trace under the powerful ability of the anti-nightmare weapon.

"Just walk...just walk." Chong Ying's expression was also very embarrassed. It was obvious that when he was destroying the car, he didn't even think that they still had a car.

He Fang: “…”Wow.

——

Wei Qixuan studied day and night. The more he studied, the more he could feel the vastness of knowledge. He was simply unable to comprehend the power of knowledge with his previous simple understanding of the world.

After class, Wei Qixuan rubbed his eyebrows to relieve the fatigue in his eyes.

"You don't need to master everything. I'm teaching you these just to give you an impression." Wei Qixuan's female teacher sat down and drank some water to relieve her dry mouth. "As the deputy city lord, you don't need to master many details so clearly."

Wei Qixuan opened his eyes and looked at the extremely beautiful female teacher whom he respected very much. He said, "But teacher, you know everything."

The female teacher paused while drinking water, looked at Wei Qixuan in surprise, and suddenly laughed out loud: "Why, are you planning to compete with me?"

The female teacher's laughter was crisp. She obviously thought Wei Qixuan was joking. However, as she laughed, she noticed Wei Qixuan's seriousness. A hint of surprise flashed in her eyes. This child, is he serious?

"In the city of the Lord Mayor, it is normal to have people like teachers, right?" Wei Qixuan held the pen tightly in his hand.

The female teacher laughed and said, "You can't compare like that."

"I'm not competing. I just hope that I can at least be like the ordinary people in the city of Lord Mayor."

The female teacher looked at the boy and shook her head. "You are different from us. Even in the main city, everyone is good at something different. Children need a long education and will be afraid of the unknown. Food also needs to be processed bit by bit. Some are good at finance, some are good at martial arts, some are good at cooking, and some are good at delivering food... Everyone has something they are good at. In the city lord's world, everyone is given a chance to do what they are good at and what they like."

Wei Qixuan looked at the densely packed handwriting on his textbook but said nothing.

"Wei Qixuan, your dream is to become the deputy city lord, so you just need to work hard towards the position of deputy city lord."

Wei Qixuan understood what the female teacher said.

But it is precisely because I understand that I am unwilling to give up.

Because he can only choose one direction, but people in the main city can choose any direction.

"You've come into contact with too many people in the main city, and you've lost yourself a little." The female teacher suddenly said to Wei Qixuan, "You've been very hard during this period. Go back and review on your own, go visit Hope City and Angel City, and relax."

Wei Qixuan was stunned for a moment, and immediately retorted: "Teacher, I'm not tired, I can still study."

"Although I don't like to praise others, Wei Qixuan, you are a person we don't dislike, so we are willing to train you." said the female teacher.

No one would be unhappy after being recognized, at least Wei Qixuan was happy.

Now that he has been recognized by the city lord, will he be able to openly assist the city lord like other people in the future?

The female teacher saw through Wei Qixuan's thoughts at a glance, and said with a rare hint of sourness: "And in fact, we envy you very much."

Wei Qixuan was stunned, pointing his finger at his nose with a puzzled look on his face. Him? What was there to be envied about him?

"We are very good, but it is difficult to meet the city lord." The female teacher's eyes showed a rare trace of resentment. "In the past, when there were fewer people, we could see the city lord every now and then. Now there are more and more people, and the time for each person to see each other will become less. You are different. As the deputy city lord, you can use various reasons to meet the city lord. It's really enviable."

Wei Qixuan choked. But, is that so?

Does that mean that he is already special to the City Lord?

Suddenly Wei Qixuan's cell phone rang. He took a look at the message and found it was from Ye Sheng. He frowned slightly and answered the call.

"Deputy City Lord." Ye Sheng's mechanical voice came from the opposite side.

"What's wrong?" Ye Sheng rarely took the initiative to contact him. Now that the city lord was not around, he hoped that the city's affairs would be told to him directly.

"The mayor of Hope City is here." Ye Sheng's tone was a little strange.

"What?" Wei Qixuan was stunned for a moment, "Has the city lord returned?"

At this time at the border, many border guards cast puzzled glances at the various people gathered all over the border. It was a very complete convoy. In the convoy, one could see that it was bulging with a lot of supplies, and... there were a lot of people.

They were the gatekeepers and were able to accurately sense that each of the people inside was strong and fit, and clearly capable of fighting.

There are quite a few people.

The convoy was huge, probably over a thousand.

At this time, the leader was a young man.

The young man had a handsome face and was not tall. Although he was the leader of the entire team, he did not seem arrogant, and even looked somewhat calm. When he looked at the entire border and the completely unfamiliar weapons that could be seen everywhere on the border, his eyes were full of complexity.

This is a team that clearly looks wealthy and doesn't seem like one that has come to seek refuge in Hope City.

After getting closer, it turned out not to be the case.

And that handsome young man actually introduced himself as the mayor of Hope City!

Ye Sheng had no way of making a judgement at this time. They all knew who the Lord of Hope City was, but the other party's attitude was not tough, and many of his words even revealed his identity. The polygraph did not show any signs that he was lying.

Ye Sheng also knew that the former mayor of Hope City had fled with all the resources and capable and knowledgeable people because the city was destroyed.

So now this person is 100% the former lord of Hope City.

Do you want to let them in?

But the city lord said that anyone can be accepted.

Of all these people...

Including the former mayor of Hope City?

Ye Sheng hung up the phone, looked up at the huge convoy, and said to the leaders, "Please wait a moment, the deputy city lord is on his way."

"Deputy City Lord?" The man who was standing in front of the former City Lord of Hope City suddenly looked gloomy after hearing Ye Sheng's words. The huge armor made the man look extremely powerful. He crossed his arms arrogantly and said, "The City Lord of Hope City has always been our City Lord Bei Ji. How come we don't remember that Hope City has a deputy city lord?"

Ye Sheng frowned slightly. For them, the only city lord now was He Fang.

"I'm sorry, because there are too many people, it will take some time to process the procedures. We are checking everyone now, so you can't enter for the time being." Because of the special characteristics of Hefang's city, Ye Sheng's coldness as a gatekeeper has faded a lot. He has met too many people and has become much more tactful than before. He no longer judges right from wrong.

"Our city lord has returned to our city. Do we still need a small gatekeeper like you to stop us from entering?" The tall man instantly showed a ferocious look on his face.

Ye Sheng, however, had no fear at all. He had gained weight during this period of time and did not look weak at all even in front of the man. Ye Sheng, who had an unfriendly appearance to begin with, had completely transformed into a typical strong man after being exposed to the sun for a long time. He was not at a disadvantage in front of the man in armor.

"Even if he is the lord of a city, he must be confirmed by the border control when coming in from outside." Ye Sheng's attitude was very firm.

"Who are you?" The arrogant man was obviously annoyed by Ye Sheng's rebuttal and raised his hand to hit Ye Sheng.

However, behind him, the former Lord of Hope City, Bei Ji, suddenly said, "Stop, just wait a moment."

Although the arrogant and strong man was very angry, he still put down his hand obediently, snorted coldly at Ye Sheng, turned around and returned to Bei Ji's side.

Ye Sheng and other border guards looked at Bei Ji wantonly. It must be said that Bei Ji gave a similar feeling to He Fang. He was equally fragile, thin, and looked harmless. Even his voice was soft.

The big difference between Beiji and He Fang is that Beiji seems to be a little more timid.

After noticing Ye Sheng's gaze, Bei Ji seemed a little uncomfortable and turned around and got back into the car. The light inside the car could at least block out some of the light. Ye Sheng noticed that Bei Ji's expression was unnatural. That didn't seem like the character of a lord of a city.

Of course, Ye Sheng has always felt that He Fang does not look like the master of a city.

"What are you looking at?" The tall man suddenly shouted at Ye Sheng, "Can you just look at the noble city lord with your dirty eyes?"

Ye Sheng was not angry, he just looked away casually. It was not a big deal. In this world, Lord He Fang's city was the outlier. They were already used to such words.

At least that's what Ye Sheng thought, but suddenly he heard the voices of his border guards nearby.

"Is this the former mayor of Hope City? Really, does he still think he is above everyone else? He fled in disgrace, and when Hope City rose, he came back to eat grass again. Now he still has this attitude. Who gave him the face?"

"He wouldn't think that he would be the Lord of Hope City after returning, right?"

"If the people in Hope City are still afraid of this city lord, I would rather go to Angel City and then be sent back to Sun City. I hate people who don't even have the courage to choose their own monarch."

"The Lord Mayor never said that we can't watch. Last time, I saw the Lord Mayor and Mr. Ye go up to the observation deck together. That's when I realized that the Lord Mayor and we can be so close. Before that, I always thought that the video footage from the past was a lie. Now I understand that the peaceful world in the past really existed."

"Now I feel physically disgusted when I see these people who put on airs."

When the border guards who were talking quietly noticed that Ye Sheng was looking at them, they naturally looked away and turned away.

Although Ye Sheng had no intention of confronting the former Lord of Hope City, he did not feel repulsed either. However, after hearing this conversation, he was surprised.

He was more emotionally indifferent than the average person, so he always suffered more during the internal struggles in Lieyang City. He had never noticed it before, but now he realized that he was indeed slow and out of tune with the people around him.

It's really unexpected.

It turns out that the former gatekeeper of Burning Sun City, who is now stationed in Hope City, has completely leaned towards Hope City.

But he was not unable to understand this feeling, especially after being treated sincerely by City Lord He Fang. Even if his emotions were cold, he would still feel respect for City Lord He Fang from the bottom of his heart.

So now, for the former lord of Hope City who has come from afar, in such an environment, would it be better for him to disappear?

A hint of murderous intent flashed across Ye Sheng's eyes, but he quickly concealed it.

Regardless of whether he was the former mayor of Hope City, his job was just to guard the border, and he should not be the one to make the decision.

The distance from Hope City to the border is quite long. After about half an hour, Ye Sheng noticed a vehicle approaching from a distance. Ye Sheng looked down from the observation deck at the deputy city lord Wei Qixuan who was sitting in the passenger seat of the car, and suddenly a strange thought came to his mind.

Just like the gatekeeper's conversation and hints he had just heard, he actually began to be curious about Wei Qixuan's thoughts.

After all, he was once the lord of Hope City. As one of the people who were abandoned by Hope City, could he still have any extra feelings for the lord named Beiji?

Even Ye Sheng himself couldn't help but explore it, let alone the other gatekeepers.

When Wei Qixuan first arrived here, he could sense all kinds of gazes coming from all directions. He lowered his eyes, seemingly not caring much about the things around him, but in fact, in a place where no one noticed, his hands quietly tightened.

Wei Qixuan got out of the car, raised his head and looked at the endless vehicles at the border.

At this moment, these vehicles brought back the most profound memories in his memory.

They have always said that the lord of Hope City escaped.

But in reality, if the city lord wants to leave, how could they possibly block his way?

These vehicles, like a long dragon, stretch as far as the eye can see on the vast, boundless plain.

What Wei Qixuan saw was their leaving backs.

What he saw now was their appearance upon their return.

The moment he saw it, Wei Qixuan was filled with anger. When they knew they were abandoned, everyone watched the convoy leave helplessly.

When they left, the abandoned relationship was born, and now they come back, now they come back...

Wei Qixuan took a few hurried steps forward, but during these few steps, he forced himself to calm down.

He did have resentment towards the Lord of Beiji City.

But such resentment should not come from a deputy city lord.

Wei Qixuan closed his eyes and took a deep breath. At this moment, he heard footsteps coming from the side. He slightly sideways glanced and saw that the person standing next to him was Shen Houyun.

After knowing what happened here, Yuan Zhiran asked Shen Houyun to follow. This was Shen Houyun's first mission to assist Wei Qixuan, and they were also supervising each other's partners.

Wei Qixuan looked at Shen Houyun and suddenly asked, "How do you feel when you know that the mayor of your city is just a system that has been following orders?"

Shen Houyun looked down at the young boy. As an adult, he should have given the boy a very appropriate answer, but after thinking about it, he just said, "From the moment I decided to rebel, I no longer cared who the city lord was."

Wei Qixuan withdrew his gaze and looked again at the long dragon-like team in front of him. He took a deep breath, gave a very appropriate smile, and walked forward.

Ye Sheng came down from the observation tower, saluted when he saw Wei Qixuan, and asked calmly in a cold, mechanical voice, "Should we let him go?"

Wei Qixuan hadn't said anything yet, but someone beside him suddenly interrupted: "Are you the deputy mayor of Hope City?"

Wei Qixuan turned around and saw the very tall man. He even had to look up to see his face. At that moment, the memory of this man came back to his mind. This was the most trusted manager of the Beiji City Lord. No... maybe it would be more appropriate to say that he was the decision maker. He was the bodyguard and secretary of the Beiji City Lord. He had great power and was someone that all the ordinary residents of Hope City avoided.

This man represents the rights of Hope City.

"Yes, I am the deputy mayor of Hope City." Wei Qixuan turned around, raised his head high, and looked at the monster-like man who had once been extremely frightening to them, "My name is Wei Qixuan."

"I'm Shiqiu." Shiqiu narrowed his eyes and looked Wei Qixuan up and down. Or rather, he didn't need to look up and down. Wei Qixuan's face and figure made Shiqiu sneer, and then burst into a roar of laughter, "Deputy city lord? A kid whose hair hasn't even grown up yet can become the deputy city lord? You're not even as good as a gatekeeper!"

Stone Ball's laughter caused all the people in Hope City who were watching here to burst into laughter, with no disguising their contempt at all.

Shen Houyun's expression gradually became gloomy, but Wei Qixuan's expression remained normal. He was neither humble nor arrogant, not like a teenager at all: "Yes, I am a child. I hope that the mayor of the city will trust me and will not discriminate against me because of my age. The broad-minded Lord He Fang gave me the opportunity to show my skills. I sincerely thank him."

Hearing this, Shi Qiu's expression turned cold. Behind his gloomy face, there was a tense sneer on his face: "The Lord of Hope City?"

"You are about to enter Hope City, so please at least remember the name of our Lord of Hope City." Wei Qixuan raised his head high, his eyes were full of determination, "Our Lord of Hope City is called He Fang."

Shiqiu's face was completely gloomy. "Why? Now that you are living a good life, have you forgotten the hard times? Who worked so hard to bring you here? Just because you discovered the 'Land of Hope', have you forgotten the favor that the Lord of Beiji City once gave you?"

Shi Qiu had no intention of using violence at this time, but he did not use violence to think or seduce, which was the most terrifying thing for Wei Qixuan at this moment.

It is undeniable that they all have prejudiced ideas towards the Lord of Beiji City. The scene of them abandoning them and fleeing is too deeply rooted in their minds, and they have ignored the Lord of Beiji City's past achievements.

The Lord of Beiji City gave up on them, but he gave up on them when they were at their most helpless and unable to revive. Even Wei Qixuan could not think of a different way from the Lord of Beiji City's choice until now.

Hope City is doomed.

I went to great lengths to get here, but I couldn't find the 'land of hope'.

Lord He Fang is a god, a hero, and a miracle worker. His achievements are definitely not something that can be replicated by any ordinary lord of the doomsday city.

"Once, when Beiji City Lord abandoned us, everything was a foregone conclusion." Wei Qixuan lowered his eyes, his heart was firm, and he firmly believed in his hero, "We survived thanks to Hefang City Lord. It was Hefang City Lord who gave us new life, it was Hefang City Lord who brought new life to Hope City, and it was Hefang City Lord who made Hope City grow and prosper. All of this belongs to Hefang City Lord, and has nothing to do with Beiji City Lord!"

Wei Qixuan is still a child, but he is more determined than anyone else.

He may still only be able to look up at the tall adults, but his momentum is never inferior to others.

From the corner of his eye, Wei Qixuan could see the Lord of Beiji City observing him in a car not far away, but he was going to let go of all his fear of the Lord of the former Hope City.

Shiqiu had a grim expression and suddenly sneered, but he didn't seem to be smiling at all: "I'm really curious about how you get your confidence and where you come from. You really have learned how to be pretentious very well."

"You certainly won't remember me, Secretary Shiqiu." Wei Qixuan raised his head and called out Shiqiu's name, "After all, I was not even qualified to enter your field of vision."

Ye Sheng watched this confrontation without any tension, and he once again felt the miracle brought by He Fang.

Wei Qixuan was once just an extremely inconspicuous teenager, a poor person at the bottom of the society who couldn't be more ordinary in the end times. However, such a person could have such great fortune under the guidance of He Fang.

Geniuses shine naturally, but the one who can make ordinary people shine is a god.

Wei Qixuan said to Ye Sheng again: "Border Guard Ye Sheng, please follow the correct process to process the entry of all people into the city. No matter who they are or what their status is, the Lord of Hefang has said that he will accept all those who come to Hope City sincerely. We will not refuse anyone to come in."

Ye Sheng replied, "Yes."

Wei Qixuan faced the stone ball again, raised his head, and said: "Our Hope City is a city that welcomes all outsiders, but please abide by the laws of Hope City when entering. Everyone who enters Hope City has a brief notice. Please do not do anything illegal. The final consequence will be that we will expel you from the border of Hope City and never let you enter again!"

Shi Qiu lifted his lips and squeezed out a voice from between his teeth: "If you really don't care, why did you come to the border in person?"

"Because we must express our attitude to the former Lord of Hope City." Wei Qixuan's attitude was very firm. "The reason why our Hope City is still called Hope City is because the Lord of Hope gave us hope, not because it was named after the past. That's all."

This is a demonstration.

Shiqiu looks very angry, but he is surprisingly patient. He can sit next to Beiji City Lord and even be the secretary who takes charge of all the affairs of Hope City on behalf of Beiji City Lord. How could he really be as rough and strong as he looks?

Wei Qixuan spoke again: "The entry procedures may be complicated, but please be patient. If it takes too long, the border guards will provide you with food supplies as compensation. Thank you for your cooperation."

The stone ball folded its arms, and its body was as huge as a lion, but it no longer had the intimidating power it had before.

Wei Qixuan reminded Ye Sheng to make careful records of everything, then turned back to his car, and Shen Houyun followed him to the driver's seat.

Their car drove away.

It was as if he really didn't care about the long line, as if they were just ordinary people preparing to enter the city, no different from anyone else.

Wei Qixuan was in the passenger seat, watching the shadows of the border guards in the rearview mirror until they disappeared. His tense nerves finally relaxed, and he took a few deep breaths uncontrollably. He found himself shaking uncontrollably, with cold sweats breaking out. Even though he wanted to control himself, his body's instinct was to be afraid.

Wei Qixuan gritted his teeth and turned his head away, not wanting Shen Houyun to see his cowardice. The boy's stubborn look was all seen by Shen Houyun.

"Have I done what a deputy city lord is supposed to do? Have I not brought shame to the city lord? Did I act on impulse?" The young man's voice was still trembling, but his mind was in a mess and he could not remember.

"Well, no, no." Shen Houyun briefly answered Wei Qixuan's question and then praised him, "You did a great job."

Wei Qixuan finally showed a somewhat relaxed look. Even though his face was still pale, he showed a childish and satisfied smile: "I actually feel a little refreshed."

Shen Houyun responded simply.

"It seems that as long as I think of the Lord City Lord, my fear will disappear." Wei Qixuan loosened his hand and saw the nail marks on his palm. "My body is obviously afraid all the time, but my spirit does not feel fear."

"Yeah." Shen Houyun said.

"The Lord of the City is strong, beautiful, and makes people proud. Whenever I think of the Lord of the City, my courage will surge up involuntarily." Wei Qixuan raised his head and looked at the man in the driver's seat. "Do you understand?"

"Yes." Shen Houyun replied.

Wei Qixuan stared at Shen Houyun, carefully observing his expression, and then suddenly smiled: "You can understand, I can see it."

Shen Houyun replied: "Yes."

"We have a common language, and we will cooperate happily in the future." Wei Qixuan smiled childishly, "I'm glad we're partners. Let's talk about how handsome the city lord is when we have time."

Shen Houyun: "..."


Recommendation
