Chapter 6730 6728-City Lord Appears
The grey-robed old man glanced at li baidai and started discussing with Lin Yi,"Master Li, you always keep your word, but I can't bear to see two young talents fall like this, so let's talk it out!"
Li baidai glanced at the old man in grey without saying anything, secretly grateful in his heart. He did make that tough stance to threaten Lin Yi, not to sacrifice his son.
If the grey-robed old man didn't come out to smooth things over, li baidai wouldn't have a way out, and he couldn't really launch an attack, right?
Lin Yi's lips twitched-he didn't want to waste time! However, if he could not meet the city Lord of broken Cloud City, he had no place to inquire about the jade box.
With his spirit sense, Lin Yi didn't find any traces of the jade box. If broken Cloud City really had a Jade box, it was very likely to be in the mayor's personal storage bag.
"In broken Cloud City, this old man will definitely keep his word. If you have any requests, just say it!"
The grey robed elder forced a friendly smile, but he wanted to kill Lin Yi a hundred times over,"If you're worried, I can seal my true Qi and Exchange hostages for you. How about it?"
"Hahaha......Thank you very much! However, I'm more familiar with brother Chiaki, so I won't trouble you!"
Lin Yi laughed as he shook his head. He turned to li qianqiu and asked,"What do you think, brother Chiaki? Isn't it good for us to be closer?"
Li qianqiu wanted to cry but had no tears. Who wants to be close to you? I think it's best for you to die as far away as possible!
"Yes, yes, yes. Brother lone wolf is right. You and I feel like old friends at first sight. It's time to have a drink and talk through the night. Why don't we find a place to have a drink first?"
Li qianqiu was cursing in his heart, but he immediately forced a smile on his face and said,"Because Broken City is my territory, I know best where to find good wine and good food. I guarantee you'll be satisfied! Brother lone wolf, do you think we should head over now?"
"No rush! I won't disappoint you, brother qianqiu. However, I still have some matters to attend to, so let's wait for a while before we start drinking. "
Lin Yi smiled as he patted li qianqiu's shoulder. It really did look like a reunion between old friends-if li qianqiu's legs weren't broken, it'd look even more like it.
"Little friend, this old man is broken Cloud city's city Lord. May I know why you want to see this old man?"
Just as they were talking, a figure suddenly appeared in the field and said unhurriedly,""Let qianqiu go first, so that Master Li won't worry. With me around, I'll give you a chance to speak."
"City Lord!"
"Greetings to the city Lord!"
"Greetings, city Lord!"
For a moment, everyone cupped their hands in greeting. It seemed that this city Lord was not an imposter.
Lin Yi smiled at the old man. This was a sea-shattering expert, and his movements were quick and secretive.
However, Lin Yi had already discovered the elder's tracks, so he wasn't surprised at all.
"So you're broken Cloud city's city Lord. It's a pleasure to meet you!"
Lin Yi let go of li qianqiu and cupped his fists, "I'm relieved to be able to see the city Lord! Brother qianqiu, you can also retire after your success. "
There wasn't only one sea split realm cultivator in broken Cloud City. The reason why Lin Yi wanted to see the city Lord was because he wasn't sure who the real person holding the jade box was. Now that he had seen him, he naturally didn't need li qianqiu as a hostage.
"Little friend, you're more courageous than others, and you're not a simple person!"
The bearded old man smiled and praised Lin Yi. He then raised his hand and sent out a gentle stream of pure energy, bringing li qianqiu, whose legs were broken, to li baidai's side,"Grandmaster li, qianqiu is fine. Please treat him first. I'll have a chat with this young friend."
"Many thanks, city Lord!"
Li baidai politely thanked him and reached out to support his son. He quickly joined his broken leg together and fed him some healing pills.
During this process, li baidai didn't relax his control of the city's defensive array. Instead, he condensed even more killing aura, ready to attack Lin Yi at any time. It was obvious that the anger in his heart didn't dissipate even after li qianqiu's return.
"Young friend, please speak your mind!"
The old man raised his hand at Lin Yi, ready to listen.
"City Lord, this junior has come to broken Cloud City this time to inquire about the whereabouts of these two items. I hope that city Lord can tell me the truth!"
Lin Yi ignored li baidai's hostility and spoke to the old man as an equal,"Apart from that, this junior has another important news that concerns broken Cloud City and even the entire abandoned land."
"Oh? This old master's interest is piqued by what little friend has said. Do you want to ask me a question first or tell me the information first?"
The long-bearded old man stroked his beard and paused for a moment before continuing,"This old man still wants to hear the news first, I wonder if it's convenient for little friend to say it first?"
"Since the city Lord has spoken, this junior will naturally obey!"
Lin Yi shrugged as he gathered his Qi and set up a simple soundproof barrier around the two. The people who were blocked outside all had ugly expressions on their faces, but they couldn't do anything because the mayor was here.
However, this only made their hatred and anger towards Lin Yi even deeper. They wanted to tear Lin Yi into pieces right now.
Lin Yi didn't set up the soundproof barrier because he didn't want people to know about the dark Demon beast, but because he didn't want the killing formation to be exposed.
"City Lord, I'll make a long story short. I heard that broken Cloud City has already received news that a nearby city has been destroyed. I just don't know who the murderer is, is that right?"
Lin Yi didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point.
"That's right. The news you brought is about the murderer?"
The old man's face turned serious-this was what he cared about the most, and if Lin Yi could help him, he wouldn't mind paying a price.
Broken Cloud city's combat strength was not considered strong among the nearby cities. At the very least, the cities that were massacred would not be any weaker than broken Cloud City.
Since the murderer had the ability to easily slaughter other cities, he naturally had the ability to get rid of broken Cloud City. Fortunately, a level nine array master, li baidai, had recently appeared in broken Cloud City and upgraded the city's defender array, which gave the long-bearded old man a sense of security.
"It is indeed about the murderer!"
Lin Yi nodded with a serious face,"but it's different from what the city Lord thought. It was the dark Demon beasts that massacred the city. To be exact, it was the sun swallowing rats and the corpse demon bees."
"It really is a darkness magical beast!"
The long-bearded old man let out a long sigh, not surprised at all.
