Chapter 2978

"Greetings, City Lord!"

Li Zongbao and the others moved. They looked at the wine cups in their hands with lingering fear, put them on the table, and bowed to Qing Liuzi.

"Get up!"

Qing Liuzi raised his hand with a smile and stopped the four people from bowing. "I didn't plan to come here, but I was dealing with the city affairs just now and felt a little uneasy, so I came here to take a look. I didn't expect that … you four are really lucky. If I didn't come here, although this Shixiu Spring wouldn't really kill you, it would make you suffer a lot!"

"Martial Nephew Li, Martial Nephew Cai, Martial Nephew Xiao!" Chen Yuming said with a bitter smile, "It's all my fault. I was greedy for wine and wanted to drag you four down with me.

Fortunately, the City Lord came in time, so I didn't make a big mistake.

Please forgive me, Martial Nephews. "

"It's okay …" What else could Li Zongbao say? After all, it was a Golden Core cultivator who apologized, and there was a Nascent Soul cultivator standing in front of him. He could only wave his hand and say, "Tasting this wine is Senior Chen's intention. The City Lord said that the ignorant are not guilty. We dare not blame Senior!"

Xiao Hua and the others naturally answered in the same way.

Seeing this, Qing Liuzi said lightly, "Yuming, you can leave first and think about your mistakes. I will personally receive these four young friends!"

"Yes …" Chen Yuming looked very ashamed. After cupping his hands to the four people, he quickly walked out of the hall.

His ashamed expression was immediately replaced by confusion before he could even leave the palace!

However, he didn't stop in front of the hall door at all. He quickly turned left and walked toward a palace of the same size not far away, just like when he came out of the Jingtai Pavilion.

Walking to the front of the hall door, Chen Yuming flicked his sleeve, and the door opened silently. This palace was very similar to the Jingtai Pavilion. It was empty. In the center of the palace, there was a lonely jade platform like a flower stamen. On it was Chen Yi, who Chen Yuming had seen before.

"Villa Lord …" Chen Yuming looked at Chen Yi and said curiously, "What is the City Lord selling in the gourd?"

"Sigh … Yuming, don't tell me you don't know!"

Chen Yi's face was also filled with helplessness. She bitterly smiled and said, "Even I … am confused!"

"Ah?

Even the Manor Lord doesn't know? "Chen Yuming was even more stunned.

"That's right. Just a moment ago, the City Lord suddenly appeared here. After asking a few questions, he immediately disappeared again!"

Chen Yi bit her red lips and said unwillingly, "Moreover, before he left, he warned me that in the future …. I shouldn't have any disloyalty towards the four of them!"

But after saying that, Chen Yi pursed her lips and smiled, "I'm just following the City Lord's orders. Why would I be disloyal to them?"

How could Chen Yuming not know Chen Yi's personality?

He knew that there must be some secret behind it.

However, he didn't ask any more questions. He smiled and said, "Since you don't know the reason, we don't need to ask any more questions!

Fortunately, the City Lord appeared in time!

If I had been a moment later, I'm afraid I would have caused trouble for the City Lord!

Well, it's a loss …. "

Chen Yuming was just about to tell her about Chun Kui's message when Chen Yi raised her eyebrows and said, "Actually, it's simple to know the reason!"

"Oh?"

After being interrupted by Chen Yi, Chen Yuming didn't mention Chun Kui anymore. He asked curiously, "Does the Manor Lord know something about the situation?"

It had to be said that good people always had good karma!

Chun Kui remembered Xiao Hua's life-saving grace and risked his life to warn Xiao Hua a few decades later, although it didn't really have any effect.

But if Chen Yi knew about this, with Chen Yi's thoughts, how could Chun Kui have a chance to survive?

Chen Yuming only thought that Chun Kui was really looking for Qiu Zan. Moreover, Chun Kui's message did help him. Now that he didn't mention it in front of Chen Yi, it naturally helped Chun Kui avoid a disaster.

"When I came over from the City Lord's place, the City Lord just happened to receive a message!

He actually went out to receive it personally. It must be an important guest! "

Chen Yi said with a smile, "We just need to know who came to Tong Mu City. Won't we know what made the City Lord change his mind?"

"This …." Chen Yuming was a little hesitant and said in a low voice, "This is the City Lord's business. It's not appropriate for us to inquire about it, right?"

"The City Lord's business is my business!" Chen Yi was unhappy and said coldly, "Why can't I inquire about it?"

Hearing Chen Yi's words, Chen Yuming was shocked. He hurriedly looked around and said in a low voice, "Manor Lord!

You … you must remember your identity. You …. are still not the City Lord's wife!

Moreover, even if you are the City Lord's wife …. you must not interfere with the City Lord's business!

Although this subordinate is biased towards the Manor Lord, in Tong Mu City, this subordinate is still the City Lord's subordinate …. "

"Sigh ~" Chen Yi sighed bitterly and looked at the entrance of the main hall, "For the City Lord …. I don't know how much I have sacrificed. But …. But now, this subordinate can't just walk into the City Lord's Mansion openly …."

"Who said so?

The City Lord is well aware of what the Manor Lord has done for the City Lord. I am also well aware of what the Manor Lord has done for my Dao Sect. If Manor Lord Chen is unable to enter the City Lord Mansion of Tong Mu City, I will be the first to not let the City Lord off! "A refined voice was suddenly emitted from outside the hall.

"Who …." Chen Yi and Chen Yuming were shocked. No one was allowed to enter the City Lord's Mansion. The city guards and female servants did not dare to wait outside the hall for too long. Therefore, the two of them were a little careless.

Although the two of them did not say anything against the City Lord's Mansion, how could they not be shocked when someone suddenly overheard them?

"Hehe, of course it's I!"

The voice sounded as the hall door slowly opened. A refined cultivator at the middle stage of Foundation Establishment walked in slowly ….

The atmosphere in the Jingtai Pavilion was completely different from before.

Previously, Chen Yuming was a cultivator at the Golden Core Stage. His identity was only the Deacon of the Meeting Hall. Li Zongbao and the others did not feel any pressure when facing him.

After all, although Li Zongbao was only at the late stage of Foundation Establishment, he could step into the Golden Core Stage at any time. Moreover, after this battle, Li Zongbao's status in the Utopia Faction would increase greatly. Compared to Li Zongbao, Chen Yuming was nothing.

Li Zongbao could talk to Chen Yuming casually with a little bit of respect.

However, in front of Qing Liuzi, Li Zongbao and the others did not even dare to sit.

This was a cultivator at the middle stage of Original Infant Stage!

He was a grandmaster who could kill them with a raise of his hand!

Even Xiao Hua, facing the pressure that Qing Liuzi was vaguely releasing, felt a chill in his heart. He stood there respectfully. The thought of mocking Qing Liuzi's character had long disappeared.

"My little friends, you don't have to be so cautious!" Qing Liuzi sat down with a smile and waved his hand. "Sit down!"

"We don't dare!"

Li Zongbao and the others did not dare to sit down. They said respectfully, "Senior Original Infant Stage, where did we find seats for us?

Senior, if you have any instructions, please instruct us! "

"Hehe ~" Qing Liuzi was very satisfied with Li Zongbao's respect and said with a smile, "You are the heroes of this great Dao Sword War!

Just now, Deacon Chen also brought you to see my Tong Mu City's Conference Hall.

Your reputation in my Tong Mu City is almost on par with mine! "

"We don't dare!"

Li Zongbao smiled apologetically and said, "We said clearly in the Conference Hall just now that we are only Foundation Establishment disciples. All of our merits were obtained by standing on the shoulders of Senior!

Furthermore, all of these contributions have been exchanged with your blood, Senior. We've received them for free, and we're already feeling very guilty. If the other fellow Daoists were to exaggerate these contributions and exaggerate them, then it would be even more of a sin on our part! "

At this point, Li Zongbao's heart thumped again. He realized that he had misspoken and hurriedly corrected himself. "Of course, Tong Mu City set up a Conference Hall here to promote the righteousness of our Dao Sect and to boost the morale of our Dao Sect cultivators. Looking at the dozens of big cities in the Three Kingdoms of Cultivation, I'm afraid that not many City Lords have such a view!"

"Ha, ha, ha!"

Qing Liuzi laughed and pointed his finger at Li Zongbao. "People say that Li Zongbao of the Utopia Faction is the first person below the Golden Core Stage. You are the role model for all the low-level cultivators in the Three Kingdoms of Cultivation. Now it seems that this is indeed the case!

With you, Li Zongbao, the Utopia Faction is really prosperous! "

"I don't deserve such excessive praise!" Li Zongbao said neither arrogantly nor humbly, "I'm just walking my own path and doing my own things.

Moreover, there are many handsome people in this world who are much better than me in terms of aptitude and strength. It's just that they don't show off, and others can't see them!

I'm just a figurehead. Compared to them, I'm nothing but mud! "

Li Zongbao's words came from the bottom of his heart. The gap between him and Xiao Hua was indeed like that!

However, Xiao Hua stood beside Li Zongbao's right hand with his head lowered and was unusually respectful. How could he see the slightest clue?

"Aptitude is one thing, but the way you conduct yourself is another!"

Qing Liuzi nodded and said, "Moreover, the road of cultivation is not a smooth one. All kinds of Spirit Stones, Cultivation Methods, and opportunities are indispensable!

From my point of view, the latter seems to be more important than the former!

Once there was an opportunity, one had to grasp it. In a cultivator's life, they would have three opportunities. The first time was because they were inexperienced and didn't realize it. When they thought about it in the future, they would definitely regret it!

The second opportunity is a good opportunity for a cultivator to rise. However, similarly, there are many cultivators who are not prepared or avoid it and lose the opportunity to advance to the high level!

As for the third time, that is the mercy of the Heavenly Dao. At the end of one's life, it will give you the last opportunity. If a cultivator who has lost the first two opportunities can seize this last opportunity, it may not be impossible for him to turn the tables and rewrite his cultivation path! "

"Yes, what you said is very right!"

Li Zongbao was a little confused. He didn't understand why Qing Liuzi, who was at the Middle Stage of the Original Infant Stage, welcomed him personally. He also didn't understand why he said such words.
