Senior Brother, Stop It, You Are A Villain!

Escape (1)

By holding Lu Jing hostage, Chu Qing escaped the search in the city without any risk, and he arrived at the gate of the city smoothly.

What’s interesting is that during this period, all the guards of Qingyan City didn’t realize that there was something wrong with Lu Jing who was accompanied by only one guard, let alone how unreasonable it was for Lu Jing to leave the city at this time.

After leaving Qingyan City, Chu Qing held Lu Jing hostage and walked for more than ten miles before stopping.

Chu Qing smiled at Lu Jing and said, “City lord Lu, thank you for personally sending me out of the city. Before leaving, I have a small gift I want to give to the city lord. I hope the city lord will not refuse!”

Lu Jing said with a sullen face, “Someone like you can actually give gifts? I…”

Before he finished speaking, he felt that Chu Qing’s hand was thrusting hard into his own waist!

The severe pain made Lu Jing’s mind go blank for a moment. He wanted to resist, but all the energy in his body became exhausted, and he couldn’t exert any strength.

Afterwards, Chu Qing seemed to feel that this was not enough, so pulled the dagger out of his waist, and inserted it into his heart.

“I’m sorry, city lord Lu. If I let you go back, you will definitely send someone to hunt me down, so I have no choice but to let you stay here forever!”

That afternoon, the news of Lu Jing’s disappearance spread throughout Qingyan City.

Everyone in the City Lord Mansion searched the whole city, but they couldn’t find either Chu Qing or Lu Jing.

Everyone was running around like headless chickens.

No one knows who had the idea at first, but in the end, they actually went to Qingxing Hall to find Xiao Ruoyao to preside over the overall situation.

After Xiao Ruoyao heard about this, she was also very surprised. She couldn’t help but ask, “You mean, your city lord disappeared, and Chu Qing also disappeared? And he also killed the people of your City Lord Mansion?”

The person who came to ask Xiao Ruoyao to take charge of the overall situation was Lu Jing’s right-hand man, a middle-aged scribe whom Lu Jing relied on as his think tank.

He smiled wryly and replied to Xiao Ruoyao, “That’s true.

Right now, the city lord is missing, and no one in the City Lord Mansion can take charge of the overall situation. We can only invite the Xiaoyao Fairy to come forward.”

Most cities in the Upper Domain have a certain characteristic, that is, most of the power is only in the hands of the city lord, and other people in the City Lord Mansion have almost no real power.

Under the city lord, those with greater power are some famous big families in the city.

If the city lord is still alive, the current situation can still be maintained.

Once the city lord is gone, the big families in the city will inevitably have other ideas, which may cause chaos in the city.

It was precisely for this reason that the middle-aged scholar came to invite Xiao Ruoyao to preside over the overall situation. After all, Xiao Ruoyao is a real Transcend Tribulation realm powerhouse, and one can’t find anyone who can fight better than her within a radius of ten thousand miles.

After pondering for a moment, Xiao Ruoyao asked, “When was the last time you saw Lu Jing?”

“It was about three in the afternoon today.”

“Where is it?”

“East City Gate.”

“Who is following him?”

“Following him was only one guard.”

As soon as these words came out, the middle-aged scribe immediately reacted, “Does the fairy mean, the city lord was kidnapped by that person?”

Xiao Ruoyao’s expression appeared to be looking at a fool, and she asked, “Isn’t this obvious? And nine times out of ten, that guard is Chu Qing in disguise.”

The middle-aged scholar’s face became very ugly, “If he is Chu Qing in disguise, then where did he take the city lord?”

Xiao Ruoyao shrugged, and said, “Is this obvious? Chu Qing held Lu Jing hostage, so he was able to leave the city smoothly. After leaving the city, Lu Jing is naturally useless to Chu Qing. If it were me, I would definitely have killed him. Otherwise, after he returns, won’t he bring a large group of people to chase me?”

Speaking of this, Xiao Ruoyao sighed, “A group of people are so stupid to be teased by a junior like this, alas!”

The complexion of the middle-aged scribe was not only ugly, but also looked like he was mourning already. If it was really according to what Xiao Ruoyao said, wouldn’t it mean that the city lord was now in danger?

He hoped that Xiao Ruoyao was simply making a fool of him, but his reason told him that Xiao Ruoyao was right.

The middle-aged scribe immediately arranged for people to search in the direction of the east gate outside the city. Not long after, a guard came to report that the city lord’s body was found fifteen miles outside the east city gate. As for Chu Qing, he was nowhere to be found.

The most ominous premonition has been confirmed, and the City Lord Mansion suddenly fell into panic.

After Xiao Ruoyao heard about this, she sighed helplessly, and said to the middle-aged scribe, “You declare to the outside world that Qingyan City will be managed by me temporarily until the new city lord appears. Don’t make trouble, or I will make them look good.”

This is probably the only good news among all the things that the middle-aged scribe has experienced today.

The news of Lu Jing’s murder quickly spread throughout the city.

There are two major families in Qingyan City, the north and the south, namely the Li family in the south of the city and the Hu family in the north of the city.

The two families have fought against each other in Qingyan City for many years, and neither of them obeyed the other.

However, due to the presence of the city lord, the two families are still in harmony on the surface.

But when they heard that Lu Jing was killed, some small thoughts suddenly appeared in their hearts.

Will now be a good opportunity to seize power?

But obviously, if they want to succeed in seizing power, you have to suppress another family first.

Just when they were about to move and think about how to suppress each other, the City Lord Mansion suddenly issued an announcement, which immediately extinguished the small thoughts in their hearts.

According to the announcement, Qingyan City has been temporarily taken over by Xiao Ruoyao. During Xiao Ruoyao’s takeover period, anyone who dared to make trouble would be severely punished by Xiao Ruoyao!
