Chapter 269: Provincial Capital Reinforcements



In a dark and damp dungeon.

Xu Kexin and Li Yun snuggled together, surrounded by many civilians who were caught here because of the house demolition incident.

"How can Heaven be so blind as to send such a foolish city lord to Beining City!"

"This is the misfortune of our Beining City! For their own enjoyment, they are forcibly demolishing and rebuilding this well-preserved community!"

"Yes, there are so many destroyed areas in the city waiting to be rebuilt, but he doesn't want to build them, and instead wants to demolish the already intact areas!"

They were all extremely angry, but they were helpless.

After all, they are just civilians without any realm, and they have almost no power to resist the decision of the city lord.

"Mom, do you think my brother will come to save us?" Xu Kexin looked up and asked Li Yun.

A hint of worry suddenly appeared in Li Yun's already worried eyes.

She knew that Li Xuan had entered the abyss, and that this journey was extremely dangerous, so she was always worried about Li Xuan.

He never thought that he would be arrested by the new city lord because of such a small matter.

She touched Xu Kexin's head and said, "Don't worry, even if your brother doesn't come, we will be fine."

She didn't want to trouble Li Xuan, and her condition didn't allow her to take any action. This was just a small matter. The city lord demolished their original home for his own selfish interests.

Although they expressed resistance, they had no deep hatred against the new city lord. They were detained by him for a period of time, and would be released after the buildings outside were completely demolished.

When the time comes, I can settle the score with the city lord.

"I'm sorry to have to put you in such a difficult situation temporarily and let you suffer with me." Li Yun looked at her daughter with great guilt.

Xu Kexin immediately shook her head: "Mom, I'm fine. Being with you is not suffering!"

squeak!

At this moment, the door of the dungeon was opened, a ray of sunlight shone in, and a figure appeared at the door.

As he slowly approached, the people in the dungeon realized that this man was actually the city lord who had imprisoned them there.

At this moment, one of his arms was cut off and he looked in a state of disarray.

This shocked the people here. Who could actually make the ruler of Beining City become like this?

Those who were a little afraid of him at first now gradually walked forward boldly to check.

Chen Xiong also walked into the dungeon. As soon as he raised his hand, the forbidden formation in the dungeon was immediately destroyed, and all the doors in the dungeon were opened.

"You can all come out!"

Chen Xiong spoke.

But after hearing his words, no one in the dungeon dared to move.

Only after Chen Huairen felt the piercing gaze did he speak up: "Didn't you hear? You are all free!"

Once he gave the order, the people imprisoned in the dungeon dared to come out.

After coming out of the dungeon, they will all come out into the sunlight. The dungeon is really not a place for people to stay. Even if it is only for half a day, they will feel like they have regained their freedom.

Chen Xiong's eyes kept wandering over them, as if he was looking for someone.

Chen Huairen stood aside with a cold eye. According to his estimation, after Beining City sent out the call for help, the provincial capital would send help soon.

Judging from the time, it should be about the same now.

At this time, Gu Haitang arrived here late. She found Li Yun and Xu Kexin in the crowd at a glance and rushed over. "Aunt Li, Ke Xin, are you two okay?"

Xu Kexin could naturally recognize her former idol, and Li Yun was no stranger to him either.

"Sister Gu, we are all fine. It was that uncle who saved us." Xu Kexin pointed at Chen Xiong.

Chen Xiong finally realized that these two were the people he was looking for. He walked up to them and immediately knelt on one knee: "Chen Xiong is late! I'm sorry for making you suffer!"

Li Yun and Xu Kexin were both surprised. From the situation just now, they had already realized that it was this mysterious strong man who had held the city lord hostage and rescued them.

But now this mysterious strong man is coming for them.

Those people around who had just been dealt with also looked over here.

"Who are you?"

Li Yun asked in confusion.

"My benefactor Li Xuan asked me to come here. From now on, as long as I am here, no one can hurt you again!" Chen Xiong promised while still kneeling.

"Li Xuan? Where is he?"

"Yeah, where's my brother?"

Both of them asked quickly.

"My benefactor is on his way here and should be here soon." Chen Xiong said.

Li Yun then remembered and helped him up from the ground: "What is going on? Why do you call Li Xuan your benefactor?"

"He gave me a new life. From then on, my life belongs to Li Xuan's benefactor!" Chen Xiong said sincerely.

Gu Haitang, who was still a little confused, finally understood. At the same time, she was also very unbelievable that Li Xuan could actually save such a strong man and make him his absolute confidant.

A proud look suddenly appeared on Xu Kexin's face. She was naturally proud that her brother was so capable.

Li Yun was a little worried: "You beat the city lord like this, is it really okay?"

"Don't worry, the benefactor now is completely different from before, and even if there are any problems, I, Chen Xiong, will bear them all!"

Chen Xiong said.

Gu Haitang knew some inside information about the new city lord. She said, "I'm afraid things are not that simple. The new city lord is from the Chen family in the provincial capital and holds a high position in the capital."
