Chapter 867
At this time, the strong men gathered in the Yancheng Zhang Yu's mansion, and almost most of the leaders of the Dongjun forces had arrived here. This lineup was not an exaggeration to describe it as luxurious.
But now all the giant figures in the East County are staring at other people, looking at the tense situation
Although these people were part of the county magistrate Lin Lang and Pengcheng Xing Yezui, they were not as united as imagined. Especially after the emergence of Lu Yun, the internal contradictions of these forces were no longer concealed at all, and their real purpose for coming here was also exposed.
Although Anxiong seemed to challenge Lin Lang on the surface, his original purpose was to get Zuo Tiantian. However, after he arrived, he found that his daughter was poisoned. The city lord Meng Zhen and the "black hand" Lian Yun, one said to support the county magistrate, and the other claimed to be his disciples to take revenge. But like Anxiong, they all had a peek at the girl named Zuo Tiantian.
"Lu Yun, do you think we are all children but you just want us to believe that you didn't get that girl."
The short dwarf Meng Zhen said coldly at this time, but his words obviously expressed what most people thought.
"When did I say I need to believe that I didn't find the girl? If you want to know the girl's whereabouts, why don't you ask Zhang Yu yourself?"
Meng Zhen stared at Lu Yun suspiciously, while Lin Lang frowned and looked at Zhang Yu, who was ignorant of life and death. Although he did not believe what Lu Yun said, his understanding of this commander should not be the kind of person who dared not admit it.
Just when these people were in a deadlock, a sound of birds singing came from afar. Although the sound was not loud, it was because the sound was far away. However, the birds singing lasted for a very long time, and it sounded like they were rushing towards this side at an extremely fast speed. Just when the birds singing sounded, the first-level monster Lin Lang was riding on had also reacted and struggled to move on the ground.
Not only because of the reaction of this first-level monster, but everyone had roughly judged the identity of the person from such a special bird song. Soon everyone saw tiny black dots appear in the sky, and as they kept approaching the black dots, they continued to magnify in everyone's eyes. The tense atmosphere before had disappeared at this moment.
Because these people all knew that the black shadow was an envoy sent by the Empire, and could come by a monster tamed by the Empire. He was definitely not an ordinary envoy, but a person sent by the Supreme Elder's House and a direct messenger. The mount that Lin Lang rode was actually an imperial property. From the day he became the county magistrate, the empire also gave him this mount.
The black dots enlarged, and everyone could vaguely see that the three mounts came. Everyone showed a look of surprise when they saw it.
Generally, the highest imperial edict in the empire also has practical monsters to pass on, but the situation where three monsters come to pass on the imperial edict at one time has never seen these people even though they are in high positions for more than ten years. While seeing this situation, Lin Lang's expression became gloomy, and several leaders' faces were also very ugly.
At this time, they had only one guess. If the Empire could use such a lineup, it must be that the girl's affairs were learned by the Empire. These people all have their own thoughts. Some hope to find the secret on Zuo Tiantian and thus strengthen themselves to achieve a final breakthrough, while others want to dedicate the secret to the Empire.
But now that the Empire has sent people, the previous thoughts and efforts of these people may lose their meaning.
Just as everyone was thinking secretly, the three black shadows finally flew to this place. Three black shadows hovered around the sky, and immediately discovered the abnormality in Zhang Yu's mansion, and quickly dived down. In just a few blinks, three huge giant birds flew over the sky, looking almost exactly the same as the first-level monster fire cloud eagle on the ground.
.
The two of the three monsters are the same size as the one on the ground, but one of them is a little larger than the others, and the color of the hair is closer to fiery red.
When I saw the larger monster inside, the group of leaders of the power below were shocked. The slightly larger Fire Cloud Eagle turned out to be a second-level monster, and there were only five in the entire Yelin Empire, so it was definitely not easy to guess the identity of a person.
When the three Fire Cloud Eagles saw the injured giant bird below, they all showed some irritability. Fortunately, the warrior sitting on it hurriedly controlled the monsters under him, so that the angry giant bird did not do anything excessive.
"Hmph, Lin Lang, this Fire Cloud Eagle is a mount given to you by the Empire. Is this how you take care of it?"
Hearing this angry voice, Lin Lang and several other leaders of the forces hurriedly looked at the person who was talking carefully. An old man, who was about 60 years old, stood on the second-level monster Fire Cloud Eagle, and looked coldly at the group of people below.
"Ten Elders, how could it be that you came here in person? This Fire Cloud Eagle was deliberately injured by someone, not because of my inadequate care for him."
Although the ten elders rank at the last place in the Elders' House of Yelin Empire, as the highest center of power in the empire, even if the elders ranked last, they were not the ones he or she dared to offend. So Lin Lang was amazed and hurriedly explained, for fear of arousing the anger of the ten elder.
"Um?"
Hearing the confusing voice of the ten elders, Lin Lang hurriedly said, "You have also seen that this place is the residence of a commander in my East County. But today there is a fight here, not only killing so many people in the commander's mansion, but also almost killing the commander Zhang Yu. My mount was also injured at this time."
"Who?"
Seeing that the Tenth Elder did not mention Zuo Tiantian's affairs, Lin Lang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly pushed all the mistakes down on Zuo Feng. Hearing the Tenth Elder ask again, he also answered respectfully.
"The person who came here to make trouble was the boy named Zuo Feng who represented the city lord An Xiong of Yancheng a few days ago. This boy was extremely strange and actually had this extremely powerful secret technique. He was obviously the second-level strength of the bone refining stage, but he could actually fight with the powerful man in the Qi-Sheng stage without losing his disadvantage."
"I'm here to capture this person and take it back for a good trial. I suspect Anxiong must have been involved in this matter, and I'm afraid they are still studying some evil secret methods, preparing to be detrimental to our Ye Lin. They..."
"Enough, I see that you, the county magistrate, are almost done today."
While Lin Lang was talking, the ten elders interrupted him coldly, and the words spoken by his hand surprised everyone present.
"Where is that boy at this time?"
While a group of people were talking, Xing Yezui reacted first and said in confusion: "Is the Tenth Elder looking for the boy named Zuo Feng? Because the boy was seriously injured by Lin Lang just now, I ordered the young disciple to take him to a safe place. Maybe he has left Yancheng now, but I don't know what the Tenth Elder is going to find him?"
Xing Yezui was a calmer among these people, so he immediately answered, and at the same time he asked the tenth elder about the purpose of coming here intentionally or unintentionally.
.
"Hmph, Lin Lang, you did a good thing. If this is called Zuo Feng's boy, if he has a bad fortune, he will not only have to take away the position you say now. Even if you have your life, our elders' home will definitely not be spared."
As soon as this was said, everyone below took a breath of air. The execution of a county magistrate had never happened in the long history of the Yelin Empire. They are now more interested in this young man named Zuo Feng.
"Transfer of the Empire"
Before everyone could come to their senses, the ten elder said five words coldly. As soon as these five words were released, a large group of people below quickly knelt on one knee. Although the imperial decrees usually come down, the elders in the Elders' House were here at this moment, so naturally they would not speak nonsense.
"Zuo Feng, a participant in this trial, is an important person in the empire and shall not be injured. From the date of receiving this order, the lord of Yancheng City, An Xiong, will take him to meet the elders as soon as possible. If he disobeys, he will be punished with the highest punishment in the empire."
Although everyone lowered their heads and listened to the Tenth Elder's reading of the order, they were all shocked. Who would have thought that the boy who was regarded as an abandoned son by Anxiong was now the one that the empire must strive for with all its strength?
After hearing this, sweat dripped from An Xiong's forehead and looked at Xing Yezui not far away with him with a embarrassed look on his face. At this time, Xing Yezui had already put away his lazy attitude. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke.
"Ten Elders, although the young man named Zuo Feng was taken away by my disciple, there should be nothing big. And there is another big thing here at present, and I hope to tell you privately."
Hearing this, the others cursed Xing Yezui as cunning. It was obvious that he was preparing to inform the ten elder of Zuo Tiantian's affairs.
"Sir, I have something to tell you here, I hope you can give me some time." Lin Lang knew that this was his last chance. If he didn't tell Zuo Tiantian's matter in front of him, he might be more guilty.
"Hmph, you still have the face to report to me, okay, I will give you time to speak. But it's not here, but to the Elder's Home." The Tenth Elder said coldly, and he was obviously extremely angry at Lin Lang's previous attack on Zuo Feng.
Seeing this scene, Lin Lang's expression became even more ugly. But An Xiong, who was beside him, said anxiously: "Ten Elders, Lin Lang's 'soul-transforming liquid' in the little girl, please ask the Ten Elders to be the decision and order him to hand over the antidote to me."
"Hmm? Why is this happening?"
After hearing this, the old man in Tenzhang looked at An Xiong in great surprise, then looked at An Ya in Uncle Tian's arms. He sighed unconsciously and said, "I also know about the 'soul-transforming liquid', as if there is no antidote to Lin Lang himself. If you want to relieve the poison in your daughter, I am afraid that only the big man from the Xuanwu Empire can take action."
After hearing this, An Xiong looked at Lin Lang in shock and anger, but saw a hint of mockery that passed through Lin Lang's mouth.
