Chapter 826 You Are Not Qualified Yet
The city lord questioned him harshly, but Chen Ming was like a piece of meat on a rolling pin. He didn't care at all and didn't even respond.
Yun Guiyue's eyes dimmed. What she liked most was to interrogate those stubborn people who refused to say anything.
"If the city lord doesn't mind, I'll take charge of the trial of this person."
The city lord looked at Yun Guiyue, hesitated for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Miss Yun. Please spare his life. The people around me have their own set of management methods. His life will be decided by Xiyuan City."
Yun Guiyue curled her lips, "Don't worry, City Lord."
Chen Ming finally began to face Yun Guiyue. He didn't understand Yun Guiyue's temper, so he felt a little nervous.
"What do you want to do? I warn you, if you lay a hand on me, my master will not let you go."
Yun Guiyue stretched out his hand, and strands of mental power had already climbed up to his palm.
She curled her lips slightly, "I'm very curious, why will your master not let me go."
As soon as she finished speaking, she spread out her palms, and the mental net instantly enveloped Chen Ming. The latter wanted to escape, but the net seemed to be tailor-made for him, fitting in instantly and then drilling into his sea of consciousness.
"ah--"
The pain of his sea of consciousness being invaded made Chen Ming kneel on the ground, and he couldn't help but bang his head against the ground to force himself to wake up.
Yun Guiyue closed her eyes and searched for his memory in her sea of consciousness.
The incident in Xiyuan City happened recently, so his memory should not be too long ago.
"Others will do the killing. You just need to inject death energy into their bodies. Such a simple thing, in exchange for you taking the position of city lord, this should be a very cost-effective deal."
Found it!
Yun Guiyue was delighted, but when she wanted to see the other person's face clearly, she found that the other person was wearing a loose black robe and was hidden in the darkness, so she could not see it clearly at all.
Chen Ming hesitated. "But how can I trust you? She sits so firmly on the throne of City Lord, how can I have a chance..."
"As long as she dies, won't that be enough?"
Yun Guiyue frowned. Why did she feel that the voice sounded familiar?
Where have you heard...
Chen Ming seemed to be persuaded. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, but... can I know who you are?"
"You're not qualified yet."
The man in black left only these words and turned away, leaving only a ball of death in Chen Ming's hands.
Is the clue...broken just like that?
Yun Guiyue continued to search Chen Ming's memory, but found that apart from the memory just now, he had never seen the man in black again.
She withdrew her hand, took a deep breath, and frowned.
Where on earth have I heard that familiar voice before...
"Is it not going well?" Su Qianchen asked.
Yun Guiyue hummed, then looked at the City Lord and said, "He made a deal with someone and will eventually take the position of City Lord. As for who did it, Chen Ming doesn't know, and he didn't even see the other person's face."
After hearing this, Chen Ming completely lost all his strength.
Yes, he was not very clear about who the other party was, but as long as he insisted and said that he knew but just didn't want to say it, he could still fight for a chance of survival.
But now... there is no chance.
The city lord's chest heaved as she looked at Chen Ming with disappointment. "Have I ever wronged you in all these years? Is the position of city lord really that important? In Xiyuan City, you're already second only to one person..."
