He met the city lord when he was young.
At that time, many residents of Holy Sword City were able to see the city lord.
Although at that time, conflicts already existed between monks and mortals.
But later, with the arrival of the deputy city lord, the city lord gradually faded out of people's sight.
"Cough cough cough! Cough cough cough!"
A weak cough came from inside, immediately attracting Xiaohua's attention.
As the two people approached, Xiaohua also saw Ou Wuzi on the bed.
Ou Wuzi was so thin that he looked unrecognizable, and his face was pale and looked a little scary.
Xiaohua found the familiar features of his childhood on his face.
"It's the City Lord! Senior is the City Lord!"
Ou Wuzi looked at the open door and sighed helplessly.
Now even his door was blown open by the wind, and no one closed it?
Shen Qing raised his hand, the door closed again, and a barrier appeared in the room.
Ou Wuzi frowned when he saw the door suddenly close again but no one was there.
He is a mortal, but he also knows some of the abilities of immortal cultivators.
I immediately became alert.
What is the purpose of the people in the dark?
In a flash of inspiration, two figures suddenly appeared in front of him.
Ou Wuzi's heart skipped a beat.
“Who are you?!”
He wanted to struggle, but he was too weak to do anything.
"Cough cough cough! Cough cough cough!"
The violent coughing sounded again.
Xiaohua was anxious and hurried forward, gently patting Ou Wuzi on the back.
"Lord City Lord, are you okay? Lie down quickly!"
Xiaohua's youthful and childish appearance and the clothes he wore made him look like a local mortal.
Shen Qingyi, who stood there without saying a word, had an ordinary appearance and inconspicuous clothes, but just one glance at him made Ou Wuzi feel frightened.
He knew about the formation and barrier of the City Lord's Mansion.
Especially after that person entered the City Lord's Mansion, the formation barrier inside prevented even many high-level cultivators from entering or exiting at will.
Not to mention doing this... without alarming anyone!
If this person is not the deputy city lord's man, then he is a real strong man!
Ou Wuzi's gaze lingered on Shen Qingyi and Xiaohua.
Xiaohua saw that he finally stopped coughing, and then looked at Shen Qingyi.
“Plop!”
Xiaohua suddenly fell to his knees.
"Senior! I beg you, please save the City Lord! The City Lord is a good man! Please!"
He was about to kowtow, but Shen Qingyi stopped him immediately.
After helping Xiaohua up, Shen Qingyi looked at Ou Wuzi.
The feeling that Ou Wuzi gave her was not bad.
At least this man, although weak from the poison and seemingly tortured for some time, had clear eyes.
"You're poisoned."
In one description, one person is terrified, while the other is very calm.
Xiaohua was frightened and anxious.
"Senior, the City Lord... How could the City Lord be poisoned?!"
Ou Wuzi seemed to have known that he had been poisoned.
"Senior... may I ask why you are here?"
Judging from the way Ayi and Shen Qingyi get along, Shen Qingyi doesn't seem like someone who is An Kaixing.
But some things...can't be explained in a few words.
"I'm entrusted with this."
It's also cause and effect.
When the mortals lived here, the power of faith they offered for countless days and nights was transferred to her through the holy sword.
The moment he killed the bloody monster, he became even more powerful.
And that thing is also beneficial to her personally.
Meeting Ayi was also a matter of fate.
Ayi looked at the two of them again and again.
"Lord City Lord, don't worry, Senior is not a bad person! She even defeated the Deputy City Lord! I said the Lord City Lord is a good person, so Senior brought me here!"
Ou Wuzi could see that Ayi really cared about him, and touched Ayi's head lovingly.
"You're so young, and you're just wandering around outside. Where are your parents?"
Ayi suddenly shut up.
He came out to work secretly just to reduce the burden on his family.
But for a child, especially a mortal child, every step is difficult in the guide.
He also didn't want his parents to know.
Ou Wuzi could see the difficulties the child was facing. The linen clothes he was wearing were washed white and had patches on them.
At first glance, it's clear that the family conditions aren't very good.
Ou Wuzi couldn't help but sigh.
When he was in power, he was also able to take charge of some of the city lord's granaries and provide some subsidies to the residents.
But now...
"Thank you for your kindness, Senior. But An Kaixing is not just one person. Besides the guards in the City Lord's Mansion, he has people above him."
Otherwise he wouldn't have ended up like this.
Ayi was stunned, afraid that Ou Wuzi would refuse, so he spoke anxiously.
"Lord City Lord! The senior is very powerful! And she is a powerful person from the Lingdao Sect! The Lingdao Sect! She is not afraid!"
Although Ayi is young, he understands the cruelty of officials protecting each other.
He finally waited for such a person and finally saw hope!
Ou Wuzi was also stunned.
"Lingdao Sect...Senior from Lingdao Sect?"
Ayi nodded quickly.
"I saw it too. It's the Lingdao Sect's token! The deputy city lord was terrified!"
An Kaixing looked at Shen Qingyi, and when he met those eyes, his heart trembled suddenly.
He swallowed and his eyes fell on Shen Qingyi's robe again.
"Senior... you are wearing clothes from the Soul Realm..."
But she said she was a powerful person from the Lingdao Sect...
Ou Wuzi's hands were shaking slightly.
Shen Qingyi lowered his eyes.
"I've been traveling and haven't changed yet."
