this...
Is this... an attack by demons?
Snap!
Chen Huairen, who was about to drink tea, immediately dropped the teacup in his hand to the ground. Fear filled his face, and he stood up and froze in place.
The extremely powerful mental suppression made him lose the ability to think, and his mind went blank.
He had almost no experience in fighting against demons. He relied on his family's influence in the provincial capital and simply relied on his realm to become a city lord.
He thought that there would be no danger as he came to this city that had just been invaded by demons and became the city lord.
But now faced with such a situation, he was so frightened that he completely collapsed on the spot, not behaving like a city lord at all.
"Who is the city lord? Get out here!"
A roar came from the sky, shocking the newly built City Lord's Mansion to its feet.
Everyone in the City Lord's Mansion heard this voice, and the strong and oppressive feeling it carried made their hearts tremble.
Not a demon?
Who is this powerful person?
Chen Huairen immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't a demon, it would be fine. He was the officially appointed city lord, and with this identity and his own family relationship.
Any strong person who wants to deal with me must think carefully first.
Wow!
At the fifth level, he used his skills and flew into the air, where he saw Chen Xiong rushing there.
"Who are you? Why are you causing trouble in Beining City?"
Chen Huairen asked, forcing himself to withstand the pressure from the other party.
Chen Xiong looked at him: "Are you the city lord?"
"That's right, I am the officially appointed Mayor of Beining..."
boom!
Before he could finish his words, a strong sense of oppression suddenly made him unable to move. Only then did he realize that the other party's realm might be far beyond his expectations.
"Where did you imprison the relatives of your benefactor?"
There was a ferocity in Chen Xiong's eyes. He had been in the abyss for so many years and had dealt with so many desperate criminals. The murderous intent and ferocity in him made it difficult for ordinary people to approach him.
"Who? Who are you talking about?"
At this moment, Chen Huairen felt the murderous intent and his whole body trembled like a sieve.
"Li Yun and Xu Kexin!" Chen Xiong said their names.
"I don't even know them!" Chen Huairen was almost crying.
"Humph, you're quite stubborn!"
Chen Xiong didn't waste any words. He turned his hand into a knife and slashed at Chen Huairen's arm.
Phew!
A single blow from his hand chopped off one of his arms, and blood spurted out from the air.
Chen Huairen immediately roared in pain, grimacing, "Ah! You lunatic, how dare you hurt me? Aren't you afraid of being wanted by China?"
"Wanted? I'm used to it. If you don't hand the person over safely today, I promise to make you wish you were dead!"
Chen Xiong's aura increased again, and the seventh-level aura condensed into substance and pressed towards Chen Huairen.
Click, click, click!
All the bones in Chen Huairen's body creaked and his face became distorted.
Below, the people from the City Lord's Mansion immediately gathered together. Seeing the City Lord being treated like this, they immediately shouted, "Quickly let the City Lord go! We've already reported this to the provincial capital. This isn't a lawless place!"
Within the territory of China, it is not allowed to use border control to oppress others, especially appointed officials like them.
Chen Xiong naturally knew all this. If you injure a city lord without authorization without any special reason, you will be punished no matter how strong you are.
Otherwise, the entire human world would have been in chaos long ago.
"Hmph, I still say the same thing. If you don't hand them over, I will make you wish you were dead today!" Chen Xiong was disdainful of all this.
As long as he can rescue Li Xuan's relatives, he can pay any price. On the contrary, if they are in danger, he will do everything he can to make these people pay the price.
Chen Huairen kept recalling these two names in his mind, but he couldn't think of them. He even thought of all the enemies he had offended over the years.
"I don't even know them, how can I make friends with them?"
Chen Huairen wailed while enduring the pain all over his body.
At this time, Gu Haitang also rushed here. Seeing Chen Xiong's audacity, he immediately shouted, "Don't be impulsive. Put City Lord Chen down first!"
She used to be the daughter of the city lord, and knew best the power held by the city lord and his status. Even if she met someone stronger than her, she could remain neither humble nor arrogant within the territory of China.
Chen Xiong's actions undoubtedly violated the bottom line of the rules. This was not only extremely dangerous for him, but also very disadvantageous for Li Xuan.
"I won't let him go unless he hands over the person safely!" Chen Xiong increased the intensity of the squeeze again.
Chen Huairen's face suddenly turned purple. In front of the seventh-level strong man, he really was unable to live or die.
"I want to see how tough your mouth is!"
Chen Xiong thought that he was unwilling to reveal the whereabouts of Li Yun and the others.
"I have no idea... no idea who you are talking about..." Chen Huairen said with gritted teeth.
Chen Xiong immediately looked at Gu Haitang below and asked, "You didn't tell me, but they were all captured by the city lord?"
Gu Haitang immediately thought of something, looked at Chen Huairen and said, "Among the people you arrested today, there are Li Yun and Xu Kexin."
today?
Chen Huairen recalled in his mind and immediately thought of those people who were arrested by him today with a wave of his hand because they obstructed his demolition.
"Them? So that's why you came here. If you had told me earlier, I would have let them go right now!"
Chen Huairen suddenly wanted to curse. He originally thought that among these people who were born and raised in Beining City, there was no one who could challenge him.
But they didn't expect that the mysterious and domineering strong man in front of them came for two of them.
"Take me there yourself, wherever they are being held!"
Chen Xiong relaxed the pressure on him. "Also, you'd better pray that they're all okay, otherwise you'll be in trouble!"
Being under the eaves, Chen Huairen nodded repeatedly, and at the same time prayed in his heart that the aid from the provincial capital would arrive here soon.
At the same time, he also knew that his subordinates would definitely inform his family. When the people from the Chen family in the provincial capital arrived here, they would definitely make this person pay a heavy price.
In this way, the restrained Chen Huairen flew towards the dungeon with Chen Xiong in front, and Gu Haitang also tried his best to follow behind.
She was the daughter of the former city lord, and no one in the city lord's mansion dared to stop her.
