After hearing what Li Mu said, Guo Xinyi's expression calmed down a lot. She did not continue to ask the reason. After being with Li Mu for such a long time, she absolutely trusted Li Mu.
While they were talking, they had already arrived at the foot of a huge city wall. Two large flags were hung on the gate of the city wall, fluttering in the cold wind, looking very majestic. Li Mu and his party also got off the car and walked into the city under the leadership of Han Lin and the other two.
We learned from Han Lin that the entire city wall is twelve meters high and seven kilometers long, but it is still under construction. According to Han Lin, they will build a Great Wall to defend against slaughterers and other malicious super-powered people.
After bringing Li Mu and his group to a fortress, Han Lin said, "Xiao Xin, you wait here first. I will explain your situation to the higher-ups."
Then he added: "We are very cautious about outsiders. I hope you can understand and don't move around before I come back."
"Well, Uncle Han, we won't make things difficult for you." Guo Xinyi said with a smile.
Han Lin nodded kindly, then turned and flew towards the center of the fortress. The two people with him returned to the fortress to stand guard, but they glanced at Li Mu and others from time to time.
Looking at Han Lin's back as he left, Xu Ling said suspiciously, "Brother Li Mu, I think you misunderstood Uncle Han. I think he's a nice guy!"
"Haha, maybe." Li Mu said lightly without explaining anything.
"Hey~ Brother Xiaobai, how do you feel now? Did you absorb the dead crystal smoothly?" Chen Xian coughed lightly and set his gaze on Miao Xiaobai who had just awakened.
"Hehe, I feel very good now, never felt so good before. Chen Xian, are you scared now? Are you planning to curry favor with me? I tell you, it's useless. I will make you pay for this!" Miao Xiaobai looked like he looked down on the world.
Being threatened by a cat in front of so many people, Chen Xian's face suddenly became tense, and he snorted coldly: "Cat cub, don't be too angry! It's still uncertain who will win!"
"Lululu~" Miao Xiaobai made a face.
…………
The man and the cat started arguing fiercely.
However, the others didn't have much time to pay attention to them, especially Xu Ling and the other two, who were all thinking about their families at the moment.
Not long after, Han Lin came back, and with him were a young man in a long robe and a bearded old man.
Han Lin laughed as soon as he landed: "Haha, Xin'er, my friends, this is our Lufan City's City Lord Tian Qing and Deputy City Lord Zhao Yuan. They were very moved when they heard about your journey of thousands of miles back home, so they decided to come and see you in person!"
The bearded old man Zhao Yuan also spoke at this time: "As the mayor of Lufan City in the Northern Territory, I am sincerely proud that Lufan has young people like you. It is because of young people like you that I have more confidence in the future of Lufan and even the entire Northern Territory!"
"Wait, what is the Northern Territory? Do you mean the Northern Frontier? And what the hell is the Lord of Lufan City? When did we have such a position in Daxia?" Xu Ling frowned.
Zhao Yuan looked embarrassed and glanced at Tian Qing. Seeing that the other party's expression was still calm, he explained to everyone: "Northern Border is just a name. We call it this way to show our determination to resist foreign enemies. As for the city lord, you don't know that our Lufan suffered heavy losses in this snowstorm. The previous official system has completely collapsed. Now the orders from above can't be issued. We can't let Lufan City continue to be in such chaos, right? Therefore, I, City Lord Tian and a group of superpowers have temporarily established such a new system."
Seeing that Xu Ling wanted to argue with the other party, Jia Qian quickly pulled her back and said to Zhao Yuan and others with an apologetic look: "City Lord Tian, Deputy City Lord Zhao, Ling'er has become stupid because of reading too much. She doesn't know how to adapt. Please don't mind."
Zhao Yuan waved his hand and said, "Miss, what are you talking about? As local officials, it is normal for the masses to question us. Why would we mind? Haha, your name is Jia Qian, right? Your father Jia Jiyan and I are old friends, haha~"
"Do you know my father? How is he now?" Jia Qian's heart moved when she heard this, and she asked nervously.
"I not only know your father, I also know both of their parents! Don't worry, they are all doing well now." Zhao Yuan said with a smile.
"In that case, we won't keep you company." Xu Ling said as he pulled Jia Qian and the two of them hurriedly prepared to leave the city.
Li Mu smiled bitterly and followed.
"Wait~" Tian Qing spoke at this time.
A few people turned around, and Chen Xian asked impatiently: "Is there anything else?"
Tian Qing ignored them. He didn't take this young man, who didn't show any signs of emotion, seriously. He said to Xu Ling and the other two, "You can't go back now!"
"You..." Chen Xian wanted to say something, but saw Li Mu shook his head slightly at him, so he had to give up.
"Give me a reason?" Jia Qian frowned.
"Hey~ Girls, you don't know that your parents are making a big mistake now. It's not that we want to stop you from going home, but we are afraid that you will be persecuted after you go back!" Zhao Yuan said with great sorrow.
"What a joke! Don't we understand our parents? What mistakes could they make? They want to persecute us? Your lie is so clumsy!" Xu Ling sneered.
When Jia Qian and Guo Xinyi heard what Zhao Yuan said, their faces darkened. Since the other party said so, he must not be the same kind of person as their parents. It is very likely that their families are being suppressed by these people.
Han Lin stood up at this time and said sincerely, "Xiao Xin, listen to me. I know you can't accept the fact that your parents made a mistake for the time being and think that we are framing them, but calm down and think carefully. If our Lufan City is really hostile to your parents, how could the two city lords come to greet you in person? In fact, Lao Jia and the others just didn't think straight for a while. It's a serious mistake, but there is still room for redemption. As long as you go and persuade them in person, I believe we can still reach a consensus and cooperate with each other."
"Haha, I finally understand. You want to use us as bargaining chips to threaten our parents? Dream on! Let me tell you clearly, your wishful thinking is wrong!" Xu Ling sneered.
Jia Qian and Guo Xinyi also expressed their attitudes with a resolute look on their faces.
Tian Qing's face darkened when he saw this, and he shouted in a deep voice: "That's not up to you! Come on, tie them up!"
Then he turned to Zhao Yuan and Han Lin and said, "I told you a long time ago that there is no need to be polite with them. Just use force directly. It's a waste of time."
Zhao Yuan and Han Lin also shook their heads with a wry smile. It would be great if they could get the active cooperation of Xu Ling and the other two, but now it was obviously not feasible.
Hearing Tian Qing's order, the two super-powered people on the fortress jumped down with two ropes in their hands, and together with Han Lin, surrounded Li Mu and others.
