"?"
The city lord gave Li Xinyue a questioning look.
"Well……"
"This child... has a bit of a temper."
Li Xinyue could barely lift her head.
She harbored a secret resentment in her heart.
I told this girl before she came that she should behave herself in Hope City, but...
"Never mind, let's go take a look first."
The city lord sighed.
Li Shiyun has been completely abandoned by her.
She had never intended to abandon Zhang Lin and instead support Li Shiyun, and now she had no intention of nurturing Li Shiyun at all.
Because there is no need to train them.
Zhang Lin also enjoys killing, but he doesn't just kill anyone he sees on the street.
Under normal circumstances, Zhang Lin would not provoke others.
He will only kill someone if they provoke him.
Alternatively, if someone else makes Zhang Lin feel threatened, he will strike first.
The city lord was somewhat understanding.
But Li Shiyun...
In just a short while, she got into a fight with someone for the second time.
Especially the first time, to be honest, Peng Bing was somewhat wronged.
He was just sitting there quietly when a young girl suddenly called him "Old Deng." Peng Bing was, after all, a local boss, and he couldn't stand it...
The city lord's goal is to cultivate a savior, a leader for humanity.
As for Zhang Lin, although he is rather aloof, he can be a competent leader and govern humanity if given enough benefits.
Li Shiyun...
Given the current situation, making her the leader... might end up her killing more people than the supernatural creature...
While the city lord was lost in thought, the three of them had already arrived outside.
The battle took place at the entrance of the city lord's mansion.
As soon as Li Xinyue entered the house to find the city lord, Li Shiyun ran out. In the short time it took for Li Xinyue and the city lord to exchange a few words, a fight had already broken out.
This time, Li Shiyun has her sights set on Chen Zibo.
On the surface, he was the city lord's subordinate, but secretly he was Zhang Lin's subordinate. However, because Zhang Lin didn't handle things, he took orders from An Qingge. Occasionally, Xia Xiaonuan would also ask him to do some things...
That's just how honest people are.
The more work I do, the more work I get.
He came here on An Qingge's orders.
An Qingge is shrewd and knows that Zhang Lin and Peng Bing are at odds, so she has been keeping an eye on Peng Bing's side.
When Peng Bing came to see the city lord, An Qingge became concerned. She was afraid that Peng Bing and the city lord had reached some kind of agreement that would be detrimental to Zhang Lin, so she sent Chen Zibo to test the city lord's intentions.
This is also why An Qingge and the city lord are not familiar with each other.
Although she knew that Zhang Lin and the city lord had been getting closer recently, Zhang Lin had never told her the city lord's true identity.
If An Qingge knew that the city lord had also become Zhang Lin's target, she wouldn't be worried, but she didn't know that.
Therefore, Chen Zibo came to test the city lord's intentions on his sister-in-law's orders.
As soon as they arrived at the city lord's mansion, they ran into Li Shiyun.
Upon seeing a pretty young girl appear at the city lord's mansion, Chen Zibo became curious and went up to ask her about her identity.
Li Shiyun was already furious, and when she suddenly saw someone approaching, she immediately started cursing.
Even with Chen Zibo's good self-control, he was still somewhat embarrassed.
He wouldn't argue with a little girl, so he began to lecture Li Shiyun as an adult.
This infuriated Li Shiyun.
So the little girl took action immediately.
Fortunately, Chen Zibo has always had Zhang Lin's support and is quite capable; otherwise, he might have been easily defeated by Li Shiyun.
Even though he wasn't instantly killed, after fighting for a while, he was starting to struggle.
"Little girl, stop right now!"
When the city lord went outside and saw that Li Shiyun had hit one of his subordinates, he became a little angry and his tone became stern.
Li Shiyun didn't want to listen, but for some reason, just as she was about to continue, she felt a chill run down her spine, and involuntarily, her movements slowed down and eventually stopped completely.
Disobedient.
You're really going to die!
"snort!"
The city lord snorted coldly, "This is not your home. In my territory, you must abide by my rules. For Xiao Li's sake, I will not pursue this matter this time. If there is a next time, I will personally teach you a lesson!"
She didn't want to turn her remaining flesh and blood into a machine by taking action.
However, if this little girl really dares to provoke her, she won't hold back her strength.
Anyway, Zhang Lin said he could help her restore her physical body.
At worst, it's just going against some principles and helping him tie up a woman.
Even if Zhang Lin has a hundred faults, there's one thing he's never boasted about.
The city lord still trusted him quite a bit.
Li Shiyun dared not move.
Li Xinyue quickly pulled her away and then went to apologize to the city lord.
The city lord said in a calm tone, "Apologize to Xiao Chen!"
"I don't……"
Li Shiyun's instinct was to refuse, but facing the city lord who exuded a deadly danger, she didn't dare to utter a word of refusal.
She has an ability called Beast Intuition.
This ability allows her to sense danger and, in battle, to dodge deadly attacks without having to think.
Now, she feels threatened by death.
This is very unusual.
The reason she is so arrogant at such a young age is because she has rarely encountered anyone who makes her feel dangerous.
"sorry……"
Li Shiyun was also a person who followed her heart. Although she was very unwilling, she still apologized to Chen Zibo.
Although he was not sincere, Chen Zibo wouldn't hold a grudge against a little girl.
