Inside the Drunken Flower Pavilion.

Mo Feng was now alone, but a smile played on his lips.

This person was even more domineering and forceful than he had anticipated.

Perhaps...

Can the Mo Clan once again dominate Lone Smoke City?

It was all on him alone.

The City Lord's Mansion.

Although I had met Chen Ning once before.

But the fact that the entire Hu Household was wiped out overnight still secretly alarmed Han Qianren.

Now.

Facing Chen Ning, who had just arrived, he couldn't help but laugh and say, "Young brother, the person you're looking for is indeed in my city lord's mansion, but the reason is not what you think."

"The Hu Household has been arresting civilians indiscriminately, causing widespread panic. The City Lord's Mansion has been keeping an eye on them for some time. Today, when the Hu Household's retainer was transporting the captured people out of the city, our City Lord's Mansion's experts immediately intervened and rescued one person. If I'm not mistaken, it's your friend..."

"I see, then we really have to thank the powerful figures from the City Lord's Mansion!"

Chen Ning knew what this old fox was up to, so he readily agreed.

"Hahahaha... Actually, young brother, by destroying the Hu Household, you've also rid my Lone Smoke City of a major villain. I can't suppress my love for talent anymore. Young brother, I sincerely invite you to join the City Lord's Mansion and serve under me. I promise you a position above my three generals!"

Han Qianren's eyes shone brightly.

If in the morning Chen Ning's strength only impressed him as an amazing talent.

Now.

He possesses the strength to kill Saint Realm Middle Stage while only at the Heaven Martial Realm Eighth Layer.

This is absolutely outrageous!

If we can recruit people like this, Lone Smoke City will be able to dominate the Cangxuan Domain in no time.

Chen Ning shook his head and said, "I appreciate the city lord's kindness, but my sister and I are used to a carefree life and don't like being constrained."

"Young brother, are you really not going to reconsider? Once you come, you'll be second only to me in Lone Smoke City. As for the rest, their life or death will be entirely at your discretion."

Han Qianren's voice was earnest.

Chen Ning shook his head and said, "No, thank you for your kindness, City Lord."

At this moment.

Outside the city lord's mansion, a figure walked in, coldly snorting, "You shameless wretch, do you really think you can be so arrogant just because you killed Hu Qiu?"

This man was none other than the Wolf General Yuan Ming.

"Yuan Ming, you mustn't be rude!"

Han Qianren feigned anger and gave a reprimand.

Yuan Ming nodded, then said in a deep voice, "I'm letting you go only because the city lord is protecting you. Actually, your refusal to join the city lord's mansion is exactly what I wanted to see."

"That's enough. Do you have anything important to report back to?"

Han Qianren's voice was icy cold.

"City Lord, a sacred herb has appeared in the Absolute Void Mountain Range outside the city. It is the Heaven-Draping Azure. After consuming it, one at the Ninth Level of the Heaven Martial Realm can advance to the Saint Realm without any negative effects."

Upon hearing this...

Han Qianren's expression also shifted.

The Heaven-Draping Azure- Primordial Spirit-Breaking Fruit is different from the Primordial Spirit Fruit. After consuming the Primordial Spirit-Breaking Fruit, one can also enter the Saint Realm.

But that kind of Saint.

Too weak.

They were just like the Yellow Sand Saint and the Yao Household family patriarch.

His subsequent achievements were also quite limited.

But the Heaven-Draping Azure is a truly sacred medicine favored by heaven and earth; after consuming it, one breaks through the barriers and enters a state of sainthood.

The realm is stable.

The Primordial Spirit-Breaking Fruit is already a rare item, hard to come by even with a large sum of money.

The Heaven-Draping Azure is an even more priceless treasure.

The reason Yuan Ming dared to say it in front of Chen Ning was...

That's because it's not a secret in the first place.

It couldn't be hidden any longer.

It is estimated that powerful figures from all major cities within the entire Cangxuan Domain will come to compete for this sacred herb.

Now.

The elixir is not yet ready.

Everyone is waiting for this sacred medicine to mature.

Three days later, at midnight.

This is when the sacred herb is ready to mature.

Yuan Ming looked at Chen Ning, a cruel expression on his face, and said, "I know you are at the Heaven Martial Realm Eighth Layer, and you must be very interested in this sacred medicine. Do you dare to compete for it?"

"In the city, with the city lord protecting you, I cannot kill you. But once you reach the Absolute Void Mountain Range, no one will protect you..."

"Let me give you a piece of advice: don't be complacent just because you killed Hu Qiu. Hu Qiu was old and weak, his Qi and Blood were failing. Killing him was a piece of cake for me!"

Han Qianren coughed, and Yuan Ming stopped threatening him.

"Young man, as you've seen, my subordinate is arrogant, and since you killed his maternal uncle, I can't interfere too much with his actions outside. But as I said before, once you join my ranks, I guarantee Yuan Ming will no longer target you!"

Chen Ning smiled upon hearing this, looked at Yuan Ming, and said, "Originally, I might not have bothered to fight for this sacred medicine, but I don't like being threatened. General Yuan, now I can tell you, I will bury you in the most scenic spot of the Absolute Void Mountain Range!"

"Fine! I will also use your head to pay tribute to my maternal uncle!"

Yuan Ming snorted coldly.

Chen Ning then smiled at Han Qianren and said, "City Lord, thank you for helping me find the person. Farewell."

After saying that.

Chen Ning arrived at the city lord's mansion courtyard, took Sikong Xue's dirty little hand, and walked outside on his own.

"By the way, Lord City Lord, I will not concern myself with your affairs, so there is no need to explain them to me."

The words had barely left his mouth.

Then he left the city lord's mansion.

Here.

Only Han Qianren and Yuan Ming remained.

"Lord, this man is far too arrogant; we must be on guard."

Yuan Ming clasped his hands in a fist salute.

Han Qianren frowned.

He was reflecting on Chen Ning's last words.

He said he wouldn't get involved, meaning he wouldn't interfere.

Han Qianren's explanation just now was nothing more than a formality.

What is the truth?

He knew he couldn't hide it from Chen Ning.

So.

He needs to do everything he can to recruit him and make him one of his own.

Pity...

"If they can't be on our side, then they can only be our enemies..."

Han Qianren sighed.

Yuan Ming understood immediately and said, "Rest assured, City Lord, the Absolute Void Mountain Range is his place of death!"

"Don't be careless. This man can kill Hu Qiu, and he has that strange beast at his command. You'd better sit back and watch the fight. After all, you're not the only one who wants to kill him this time."

This time, the enemies of Ghost Capital Ghost Tomb will also come to the Absolute Void Mountain Range.

And they won't let Chen Ning off the hook.

"I will give you one more thing, just in case!"

Han Qianren flicked his finger, and a blood-red face landed in Yuan Ming's hand, who immediately showed great joy.

The divine skill practiced by the city lord was incredibly terrifying.

This human face was pieced together from hundreds or even thousands of people, and it possessed boundless resentment.

With this method, he was even more confident.

"Use only as a last resort."

Han Qianren gave a word of advice.

Yuan Ming bowed and said, "Yes, sir!"

After Yuan Ming left.

Han Qianren couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Three offers, three rejections... You're courting death..."

Although Chen Ning said he wouldn't interfere in his affairs.

But he couldn't believe it, and he couldn't afford to gamble. The people of Lone Smoke City were in turmoil, and too many wanted to see him fall.

Not just within Lone Smoke City.

Throughout the entire Cangxuan Domain, too many people are eyeing the lucrative prize that is Lone Smoke City.

So.

To ensure that nothing goes wrong.

He had no choice but to eliminate that exceptionally talented young man.
