Public execution!
When several city lords saw this scene, they had actually already thought of what was about to happen.
They also knew very well what Ning Fan was going to do.
Establish authority.
Since Ning Fan came to Shangcheng, he actually didn't do anything big and he was quite low-key.
Even after entering Jinfeng City, he lived in seclusion and rarely showed up in public, leaving most of the affairs to Luo Xiu and others.
Although Luo Xiu had driven out many of the indigenous people of Jinfeng City, it seemed like a big commotion had occurred.
But in reality...
Think about it, with millions of troops involved, is this really a big deal?
At the very least, the people in the lower city did not attack Fang Qing directly. Instead, they were always very "polite" to him.
Even now, Fang Qing is still alive!
Therefore, the reason why these city lords dared to agree to Fang Qing's joint assassination was, on the one hand, because they thought that the people in the lower city did not have high-level combat power.
More importantly,...
They felt that the people in the lower city would not dare to break off relations.
This is the upper city after all!
However, at this moment, Ning Fan, with a smile on his face, made a move.
It would be too troublesome to clean up city by city.
How easy would it be to wipe out the whole thing like this?
"I believe many people have heard about what happened a few days ago."
Ning Fan said softly, "My family and I were assassinated."
After these words were spoken, the city lords all lowered their heads, not daring to say a word, not even daring to look Ning Fan in the eye.
"Fortunately, I still have some means of self-protection, so I was able to survive."
Ning Fan pointed at the miserable "killers" below, among whom was Fang Qing.
"Fang Qing, Mr. Fang, everyone should know him, right?"
"He's one of them."
"These killers all came from outside. Without Mr. Fang's help, they wouldn't have been able to sneak in quietly."
"And while my people were interrogating them, I discovered something very interesting."
Ning Fan turned his head and scanned each city lord. "Mr. Fang and they all admitted it. They... were sent by you?"
Several city lords trembled at the same time.
"Mr. Ning, Mr. Ning Fan!"
Suddenly, an older city lord hurriedly explained, "This matter has nothing to do with our Qiuyan City!"
Ning Fan raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
The old city lord said loudly, "I admit that Fang Qing did contact me before, saying that he wanted to unite everyone to... assassinate you and the people around you."
The old city lord's panic was fully reflected in his facial expressions and body language.
"But I turned him down!"
"I swear, Qiuyan City was absolutely not involved in this operation!"
"If you don't believe me, you can try again. There really isn't anyone from Qiuyan City here!"
Ning Fan's expression was calm.
He believed what the old city lord said.
When Fang Qing was interrogated, he did give up Qiu Yancheng.
However, none of these killers admitted that they were from Qiuyan City.
Ning Fan didn't believe that these killers were so proud.
Then there is only one possibility left.
Fang Qing held a grudge against Qiu Yancheng for his rejection.
Knowing that you are doomed, you might as well find someone to take the blame with you.
Through his contact with Fang Qing during this period, Ning Fan also believed that he was someone who could do such a thing.
Of course, Ning Fan had his own considerations for calling him here.
But before Ning Fan could respond, Liu Yao, who was standing to the side, suddenly shouted, "What do you mean by that? This matter has nothing to do with your Qiuyan City. Does that mean it has something to do with my Jiushui City?!"
Liu Yao's words could be said to have caused a huge uproar.
The other city lords also seemed to have gone crazy and started loudly questioning the old city lord.
If you don't know the inside story, just looking at the reactions of these people, it seems so unfair.
Ning Fan, who was standing aside, had no intention of interrupting them. Instead, he watched their performance with a smile.
It doesn't matter.
This is a completely foreseeable scenario.
When faced with life and death, everyone is equal.
These city lords are afraid of death.
The killers exposed below...
Actually, it’s the same.
When they saw these high-ranking city lords actually starting to push each other without regard for their dignity, they understood a fact.
That means you have been abandoned.
These city lords had no intention of saving them at all, but wanted to cut off ties with them in the most direct and effective way.
Even in death, they will not be recognized as people from their hometown.
What makes them even more desperate is that their families might also be wiped out.
In order to protect themselves, the city lords cleared out all traces of them left in the inner city.
This is also the result Ning Fan wants to see.
He wanted everyone present to see clearly the true faces of these city lords.
Who will work hard for them in the future?
If there is no one willing to fight for his life, the position of city lord is just a decoration.
At the same time, people in the upper city will also have a new understanding of people in the lower city through this incident.
The people in the downtown area are not snakes, insects, rats or ants who eat their leftovers.
But he is the judge who can decide their life and death.
Under such influence, soon...
