Chapter 100

Because He Mingjing had been staying at the City Lord's Mansion during this time, the guards of the City Lord's Mansion all knew him.

Learning that he was here to see Xue Chengkong, the old butler immediately sent someone to report, and soon he was granted an audience.

In the spacious hall.

Heishui City Lord Xue Chengkong was dressed in a luxurious black robe, sitting in the main seat.

He watched Qin Shuo and He Mingjing walk into the hall calmly, seemingly not surprised by their arrival at all.

"City Lord Xue, I've brought you the evidence you wanted!"

He Mingjing threw the He Qiang in his hand to the ground and said:

"This person has taken pills made by the Sky Wolf Gang and can autonomously transform into a wolf. As long as I wake him up, I can prove what I said before."

"Oh? Is that so?" Xue Chengkong's tone was flat.

Even at this moment, this City Lord of Heishui City seemed to be still questioning, not believing that the Sky Wolf Gang was colluding with the Xiaoyue Yaowang.

"Whether it is or not, I will know by waking up this Sky Wolf Gang elder."

He Mingjing also knew that this City Lord Xue didn't believe anyone's words, only his own eyes and judgment.

So he took out a Blood-Qi Pill and stuffed it into He Qiang's mouth to help him recover from his injuries, so as not to be too severely injured to wake up.

Then, he took out a small bottle and placed it in front of He Qiang's nose to let him smell it.

Before long, He Qiang, stimulated by the strong odor, woke up from his coma.

As soon as he woke up, he saw Qin Shuo not far away.

Immediately, as if seeing a ghost, he instantly transformed into a Wolf Demon, wanting to escape this place at the fastest speed.

In the battle at the pill room, he had already deeply experienced Qin Shuo's terror.

Seeing him again at this time, he couldn't even raise the thought of fighting again, wanting to run away immediately.

However, before he could run out of the hall door, a heavy blow landed on the back of his head.

Immediately afterward, he lost consciousness.

"City Lord Xue, do you believe what I said now?"

He Mingjing glanced at He Qiang, who had been knocked out by Qin Shuo again, and said seriously:

"The Sky Wolf Gang is colluding with the Xiaoyue Yaowang and will activate the Ten Thousand Spirit Array today to slaughter the people of Heishui City."

"I ask the City Lord to take action, slay this villain, and save the 100,000 people of Heishui City from fire and water."

He Mingjing spoke righteously, his words sincere.

Xue Chengkong, sitting in the main seat, remained silent, falling into deep thought.

"My Lord, the Xiaoyue Yaowang is about to activate the array. By then, everyone who has taken the Sky Wolf Gang's pills will be awakened, turn into Wolf Demons, and become blood materials for it to recover its strength..."

He Mingjing was full of urgency.

Looking at the entire Heishui City, if there was anyone left with the strength to stop the Xiaoyue Yaowang, it was only the True Disciple of Wind Thunder Valley in front of him, the former Condensing Truth Realm expert, now the peak Pulse Opening Realm expert, Xue Chengkong.

Originally, Wei Yuan also had the strength to participate in this demon-slaying battle.

But the other party had already taken the Sky Wolf Gang's Blood Boosting Pill.

Once the Ten Thousand Spirit Array was activated, Wei Yuan would not only not be a help, but would very likely become an enemy blocking them.

Xue Chengkong remained silent.

After a long while, he suddenly spoke: "Are you sure the Xiaoyue Yaowang is acting tonight?"

"Confirmed." He Mingjing nodded heavily.

Qin Shuo added: "This is what I heard from the private conversation between this Elder He and another elder. If the City Lord doesn't believe it, you can wake him up and ask again."

"No need!"

The stern Xue Chengkong waved his hand casually, showing the majesty and generosity of a superior.

He glanced at He Qiang, who was unconscious on the ground, and said calmly to Qin Shuo and He Mingjing: "You two bring him and follow me!"

Qin Shuo and He Mingjing looked at each other, seeing the seriousness and surprise in each other's eyes.

This City Lord Xue was too calm!

Even knowing that the Xiaoyue Yaowang was going to slaughter the city tonight, he was still not surprised or chaotic, as if everything was under his control, confident and composed.

Although he didn't know what this reclusive City Lord wanted to do, Qin Shuo and He Mingjing still followed him with He Qiang.

The situation in Heishui City was critical, and with their strength, it was not enough to confront the Xiaoyue Yaowang.

Now they could only hope that this former True Disciple of Wind Thunder Valley, the number one expert in Heishui City, had the means to check and balance the Xiaoyue Yaowang.

The two followed Xue Chengkong out of the hall and walked toward the depths of the City Lord's Mansion.

On the way, Xue Chengkong, who was walking at the very front, suddenly spoke:

"The Xiaoyue Yaowang is a general under the Demon Saint Bai Ze, with strength comparable to a human Martial Arts Grandmaster, and was severely injured by the Buddhist divine ability of the Dragon Elephant Monk a year ago, fleeing to the territory of Songyang Prefecture.

Its true body's strength should still be at the peak of the Condensing Truth Realm.

And the strength of its host, which is the Sky Wolf Gang Gang Leader you met, should be at the peak of the Pulse Opening Realm.

However, its host has the blessing of the Heavenly Wolf bloodline, and ordinary peak Pulse Opening experts are no match for it at all.

It's not bad that you two could survive in its hands."

"So you knew about it all along, City Lord?"

He Mingjing was stunned, "Then why did you ask me to find evidence to prove the connection between the Sky Wolf Gang and the Xiaoyue Yaowang?"

"Without you making a scene at the Sky Wolf Gang, how would I know when this old demon plans to take action?"

Xue Chengkong's tone was flat, giving people a feeling of being in control of everything.

Qin Shuo frowned slightly, feeling a bit unhappy about being used as a pawn.

However, with a great enemy in front, he didn't flare up and continued to follow.

Since the other party already knew everything, he thought they should be prepared.

He also wanted to see how this number one expert in Heishui City planned to deal with the Xiaoyue Yaowang, which possessed the strength of the peak Condensing Truth Realm.

While pondering, Xue Chengkong had already brought the two to the back garden of the City Lord's Mansion.

In the garden, heavily armed soldiers could be seen everywhere, standing guard and patrolling, as if guarding some important treasure land.

When the soldiers saw Xue Chengkong, they straightened their bodies, placed their right arms across their chests, and saluted silently.

Xue Chengkong was expressionless, as if he hadn't seen it, and led the two straight toward a rockery in the garden.

On both sides of the rockery stood two teams of fierce-looking soldiers, who looked like experts with martial arts accomplishments.

At the very least, they were at the Great Success of Internal Strength, or even the peak of Internal Strength.

Peak Internal Strength, this could be used to open a hall and teach apprentices outside.

But here, they were just ordinary soldiers, which showed the strict defense of this back garden of the City Lord's Mansion.

Besides that, each of the four walls of the garden was equipped with a divine arm crossbow.

This was a heavy weapon in the army, the crossbow bolts used were as thick as an arm, specifically used for attacking strongholds and breaking armor, with immense power.

I'm afraid even a Pulse Opening Realm expert breaking in here would have no return.

"City Lord Xue, where are we going?"

Seeing those divine arm crossbows, a sense of unease rose in Qin Shuo's heart.

This kind of big killing weapon, if used against him and He Mingjing, I'm afraid the two would have to lose a layer of skin even if they could get out alive.

Most importantly, this Xue Chengkong had been a riddle-maker all along, unwilling to reveal anything, which made him feel very insecure.

"To see someone who can kill the Xiaoyue Yaowang," Xue Chengkong said calmly.

Then he raised his hand, and the two soldiers near the rockery immediately walked to both sides of the rockery, each pulling an iron chain and pulling hard.

Boom!

A rockery stone over two meters high was pulled up, revealing a pitch-black cave entrance.

Xue Chengkong didn't hesitate at all and walked straight in.

But Qin Shuo and He Mingjing didn't move.

Especially Qin Shuo, who showed vigilance in his eyes and said in a deep voice:

"Someone who can kill the Xiaoyue Yaowang? Who is it?"

This cave, at first glance, didn't look like an ordinary place.

If they entered rashly, who knew what would happen? He didn't want to take risks.

However, just as Qin Shuo made up his mind that he couldn't enter the rockery cave rashly,

Xue Chengkong's next answer made him step forward without hesitation.

"Mingwang Temple, Master Jueming!"

The words fell, and Xue Chengkong didn't care about Qin Shuo and He Mingjing anymore, walking straight into the depths of the cave.
