"Isn't City Lord Qin questioning this Xuan Gladiator under my command? What's wrong with him answering truthfully?

As for you, who do you think you are? Did anyone ask you a question? "Chen Yang glanced at Feng Wuchen and said coldly.

"You …" Feng Wuchen was furious. He pointed at Chen Yang and was about to say something.

"Cough, cough. Wuchen, please step back. Don't be rude.

City Lord Chen is really good at managing his subordinates. I'm impressed. "Qin Yuan waved his hand and stopped Feng Wuchen from continuing. He said with a fake smile.

"Same to you," Chen Yang said with a faint smile.

Han Li's expression remained unchanged as he listened to these words. There was no change in his expression at all.

However, Feng Wuchen's gaze towards Han Li was filled with murderous intent.

"Hmph, a shameless usurper with no loyalty at all is still putting on an act here. It's simply disgusting.

Do you really think that we don't dare to kill you? "Fu Jian suddenly raised his eyebrows and glared at Chen Yang.

"Looks like City Lord Fu has quite a grudge against me. If you want to kill me, you can try." Chen Yang laughed and said without backing down.

Beside him, Tu Gang and the others from Qingyang City stood up and glared at Fu Jian and the others.

Fu Jian's subordinates from Tongyu City also stood up when they saw this.

Although Xuanzhi City Lord Qin Yuan didn't say anything, he started coughing violently. His subordinates, led by Feng Wuchen, all looked towards Tu Gang and the others with eagerness in their eyes.

The atmosphere in the main hall was extremely tense. Just a spark was about to explode on the spot.

"Aiyo, we're late, we're late.

Everyone, please calm down. Don't harm the harmony here … "Right at this moment, a voice that carried a strange magnetism sounded out from outside the hall.

A fat, bearded, grey-robed elder walked in and said to everyone with a smile, "We're all under Xuanzhi City.

"We're all subordinates of Xuan City, so we should naturally help each other and not kill each other.

If you really want to fight, it wouldn't be too late to do it during the Five Cities Martial Competition. "

"Fellow cultivator Sun, I trust you have been well since we last met." Chen Yang greeted him with a smile.

"City Lord Chenyang, haha … Congratulations …" The grey-robed elder returned the greeting with a smile.

As he spoke, he brought his subordinates and sat opposite Han Li and the others.

This person was the only one from the other three cities who was willing to greet them with a smile.

"Is this the Opal City Lord, Sun Tu?" Han Li transmitted his voice to Gu Qianxun.

"That's right, that's him.

Don't be fooled by his smiling and kind appearance. In fact, he was the one with the strongest foundation among the four affiliated cities. It was just that he usually didn't show it.

Do you see that pig-faced fellow behind him? "Gu Qianxun asked.

Han Li tilted his body slightly and saw through Sun Tu's fat body that there was a short, ugly young man following closely behind him without sitting down.

To say that he had a pig-face was an exaggeration. It was just that his nose was slightly upturned and his lips were swollen, making him look like a pig.

The distance between the youngster's eyebrows was a little wide, and he looked a little sluggish. He was holding an oily roasted beast's leg in his hand, and was devouring it attentively. His eyes never left the beast's leg.

"I see him. What's so special about him?" Han Li asked curiously.

"His name is Fang Chan. Don't be fooled by his innocent and harmless appearance. Once he starts fighting, it's as if he's a different person.

For some reason, he can release a special sound wave attack through his mouth and nose. Those who are hit by it will feel numb and lose the ability to resist.

I've suffered at his hands before. "Gu Qianxun replied.

When Han Li heard this, he took a deep look at Fang Chan and silently committed Gu Qianxun's words to memory.

Seeing that Sun Tu was the peacemaker, Chen Yang naturally went with the flow and brought Tu Gang and the rest to sit down.

Fu Jian and Qin Yuan looked at each other before they sat down as well.

"Daoist Qin, Daoist Fu, when did you arrive at Xuan City?" Sun Tu looked at the two and asked.

"It was only two days ago. * Cough *, cough * …" Qin Yuan revealed a smile as he replied.

"Just a few days earlier than him." Fu Jian closed his eyes and said.

"Sigh, I was delayed by something. I just arrived yesterday and haven't had the time to visit you two. Speaking of which, it's been a long time since we last met." Sun Tu smiled.

"Cough … we haven't seen each other since the Five Cities Martial Competition.

Cough … I just didn't expect that we would never meet again after parting ways with Daoist Du … "Qin Yuan said with some regret.

"It's fate … Daoist Chen Yang was able to replace him because of his ability. Daoist Qin, you don't have to worry too much about it …" Sun Tu said.

As the two of them were talking, a burst of heavy footsteps suddenly rang out from outside the hall. A middle-aged man with a medium build and an ordinary appearance stepped over the threshold and walked in. Behind him was a man and a woman, both of whom were wearing bone armor.

The middle-aged man's sideburns were slightly white and there were even some wrinkles at the corner of his eyes. His appearance was really ordinary and he looked no different from a farmer that could be seen in the market.

As for the two people behind him, one had a dignified appearance and was full of heroic bearing, while the other had a beautiful appearance and a cold temperament. The bone armor they wore was also different from the others. There were fine runes carved on it, and it looked very magnificent.

With these two people following him, it made the middle-aged man seem a little unusual, giving off an unfathomable feeling.

Seeing the three of them enter the hall, Fu Jian and Sun Tu stood up immediately. Qin Yuan was a little slower and he retracted his legs from the table and immediately stood beside the table.

The people that he brought with him also stood up uniformly.

The people under Chen Yang's command reacted quickly and they immediately guessed the identity of the middle-aged man and stood up.

"Greetings, City Lord Eche." Everyone bowed and said in unison.

At this moment, Han Li noticed that Gu Qianxun's gaze was focused on the handsome Youth in bone armor.

"What?

Daoist Gu, do you fancy that handsome man or do you have a grudge against him? "Han Li asked.

"His name is Zhu Ziyuan and he cultivates a strange ancient body refining technique. His cultivation is unfathomable.

Previously, he won the championship of the Five Cities Martial Competition several times but in reality, he has never used his full strength in any of the competitions.

You better pray that you don't have to fight him so soon. "Gu Qianxun ignored his teasing and replied.

The middle-aged man walked to the front of the main seat and revealed a warm smile. He gestured for everyone to sit down.

Seeing this, no one sat down.

Seeing this, a helpless smile appeared on Eggy's face as he sat down first.

The man and woman in armor stood on the left and right of him and stood behind him.

Seeing this, the four city lords sat down one after another, and the rest of the people followed suit and sat down one by one.

"Fellow Daoists, you have come from afar. Xuan City is not good host, please forgive me."

He didn't seem to have any intention of mentioning the conflict that had taken place in the hall.

"Ah, City Lord Eche, what are you saying?

This is truly too much for us … "Sun Tu hurriedly said when he heard this.

"Haha … The Martial Competition of the Five Cities has always been a grand event among the cities of Mysterious City. It's also a ceremony for each city to display their comprehensive strength. It's greatly beneficial to strengthen the cooperation between the five cities and promote the improvement of each city's strength," Eggy said with a smile.

Hearing this, Sun Tu and the rest nodded in agreement.

"Looking at the participants from the various cities, there are many new faces this year. Not bad, not bad … My Dark City is filled with geniuses, so there should be more fresh faces appearing in our Five Cities Martial Competition. Only in this way can the vitality of each city be displayed."

Eche's eyes swept across the crowd and stopped on Chen Yang and the rest for a moment. His eyes flashed with a smile as he said.

Hearing this, Qin Yuan and Fu Jian looked at each other. The smile on their faces did not diminish but they were cursing in their hearts.

Isn't the City Lord of Xuan City indirectly encouraging people like Chen Yang to kill their superiors?

In the future, if their subordinates want to replace them, won't they receive the same support?

However, even though they were dissatisfied, they did not dare to show it. After all, the seemingly gentle City Lord Eche was one of the top figures in the forces of Xuan City.

"In recent years, the strength of the Puppet City has grown extremely fast. Although they have been holding back and did not have a large-scale direct conflict with us, in some places where the forces intersect, their arrangements are more thorough and they have begun to gain the upper hand. Regarding this, we have to be vigilant." Eche suddenly sighed and said.

"City Lord is right … In recent years, Black Cool City, which is not far from our Tong Yu City, has been making frequent movements. They often send hunting teams into our territory to kill scaled beasts. However, every time they come into contact with our hunting teams, they would retreat on their own.

Although they will take the initiative to retreat every time they come into contact with our hunting teams, it still makes me feel a little uneasy. "Hearing this, Fu Jian frowned and said.

"The situation on our side is similar. It's just that small scale conflicts have broken out a few times. In the end, we won most of them." Sun Tu's face revealed a rather proud expression as he said.

"Our Xuan Zhi City is quite far from the Puppet City, so it's relatively peaceful. However, some spies still sneak in from time to time.

Before coming here, I even personally executed a Xuan Gladiator with extraordinary battle strength. That guy has been hiding in my Xuan Fighting Arena for thousands of years and was forced into a desperate situation by me. Only then did he use his trump card, the Puppet Technique. "Qin Yuan also said.

"Sigh, it seems that the current situation is quite turbulent.

Speaking of which, Qingyang City has been quite turbulent previously. I'm afraid it's the easiest for the Puppet City to infiltrate. City Lord Chen Yang, you should be more careful. "Sun Tu looked at Chen Yang and said meaningfully.
