Chapter 383: Blackmailing the Lord of Tianchen City (Part 1)
Returning to Tianchen City, Ye Tianxie couldn't wait to go straight to the City Lord's Mansion.
Tianchen City City Lord's Mansion.
City Lord Tianchen has always been a lover of literature, and he reads a lot in his spare time, which not only deepens his understanding of the history of the Lost Continent, but also constantly nourishes and cultivates his sentiments. At this time, he was sitting crookedly on his seat, holding a book with a colorful cover in his hand... His expression was very focused, and he was obviously deeply fascinated by the ocean of books.
There are stacks of books waiting to be enlightened by his hand, and at a glance, there are "Guan Gong vs. Gourd Baby", "Stories That the Old Monk and His Wife Have to Tell", "Things About Nuns and Taoist Priests", "280 An in-depth analysis and research of various postures", "Ximen Celebration", "A Generation of Martyrs Pan Jinlian"...
With the amnesty order in hand, Ye Tianxie walked in without being notified. As soon as he came in, he glanced at City Master Tianchen and shouted, "Master City Master... oh, are you studying literature again?"
The Tianchen City Lord was engrossed in the book for a while, but he didn't notice anyone coming in. Hearing the sound suddenly, he trembled all over and almost fell from the chair. He hurriedly stood upright, then frantically found something to cover the books on the table, and then looked at Ye Tianxie seriously: "Ahem! The great Gonji said that books are the ladder of human progress. Reading can not only increase your knowledge, enrich your vision, but also purify your heart and soul... What I read are all profound and profound books, and I can't understand them without a certain cultural background. Cough cough... boy, you are here today What's the matter with me? By the way, what happened to the gentian of the undead demon dragon I asked you to find last time? It's almost half the time, are you already thinking about giving up?"
"Give up? Why did you give up?" Ye Tianxie stared at him and said.
City Lord Tianchen glanced at him silently, then pulled something over the previous pile of books seemingly unintentionally, and after confirming that the pile of books had been covered tightly, he waved his hand and said: " Young man, come here first."
Ye Tianxie pressed the tip of his nose and walked over.
City Lord Tianchen sat down on the chair, first heaved a long sigh, as if expressing some regret, and then said slowly: "Young man, you are a genius who is once in a century, and many things you have done are enough It can be called earth-shattering, and it was because of you that I, Tianchen City, eliminated two potentially huge disasters. You are the most outstanding young man I have ever seen, so, there are some things that I must tell you."
"What are you going to tell me?" Ye Tianxie was confused for a while, seeing City Master Tianchen's heavy tone, long sigh, and blurred eyes...it seemed as if he was about to confess his last words.
The master of Tianchen City said earnestly: "Your current strength is very strong, much better than your peers, and your potential is so great that it is difficult to estimate... But, your current strength is only considered strong among your peers. , Lost in the Continent Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, there are many people stronger than you, you must not think too high of yourself, arrogant, conceited, and you should not be complacent about your continuous success and look down on the world, understand?"
"This... Lord City Master, what you said is indeed correct, but you told me this..."
"It's good that you know, it means that you are not the kind of person who is so arrogant that you lose yourself, so I can rest assured." Tiancheng City Lord said very relieved, then his face straightened, and he continued: "And the other thing The thing is to learn to do what you can, and don’t have to grit your teeth and stubbornly go to finish what you obviously can’t do. Not only will it not make people look up to you, but it will make people look down on you and make people laugh at you for being overwhelmed "Oh, young man, you are still too young after all."
"...cough cough." Ye Tianxie gave a fake cough twice, and said, "Your Majesty the City Lord said very well. He is indeed a person who often studies 'broad and profound' books, but what do you mean by telling me these things?"
The Lord of Tiancheng glared at him, and said angrily: "If you really listened to it, would you still ask me why I told you this? Last time I asked you to fetch the gentian of the undead demon dragon... You know it In the Tower of Destiny, knowing that it must be so powerful that you can't match it, you still accept it, and you still grit your teeth and don't give up! Huh..." City Master Tianchen let out a long breath, waved his hands, and said, "Forget it Forget it, I’m giving you this task to remind you that there are too many things in this world that you can’t do with your own strength. I hope you can curb your arrogance and face yourself... But I guess With your character, you won't give up until the last moment you see the Yellow River. It's right for a man to be arrogant, but you must never be arrogant!"
Ye Tianxie: "..."
This long speech by City Lord Tianchen really made Ye Tianxie tangled up for a while.
He earnestly educated him by asking him to get the gentian of the undead demon dragon... and the premise of this education was that he firmly believed that it was 100% impossible for him to get the gentian of the undead demon dragon—if he got it now Come out, will it hurt the self-esteem of this middle-aged uncle too much?
How embarrassing...
Ye Tianxie stepped forward, patted City Lord Tianchen on the shoulder like an elder, and said: "Master City Lord, please don't get excited... Well, the gentian of the undead demon dragon you asked me to take before, is this the one? "
Ye Tianxie took out a gray-blue gentian the size of a football and placed it on the table. City Lord Tianchen just glanced at it casually at first, and snorted to himself, "This kid is really too arrogant, he can't afford to lose... I don't know where he got such a big guts to fool me", but immediately, his whole body was shocked, "Whoosh" stood up from the seat, a pair of old eyes fixed on the gentian.
After a long time, he uttered a sentence with great difficulty: "This is... this is the gentian of the undead demon dragon." He raised his head and looked at Ye Tianxie with a very shocked look: "You..."
After the word "You...", but no more words came out. He was totally caught off guard.
"Ahem!" This time, Ye Tianxie's expression became more serious. He pushed the Tianchen City Master back to his seat, looked him straight in the eyes and said, "Master City Master, you are an excellent City Master. Compared with other City Masters who are also City Masters The city lord has won too much, and the potential is so great that it is difficult to estimate... But, your current ability is only considered strong among the city lords. Lost Continent Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, I don’t know how many people are stronger than you, so there are some words , I must tell you... Alas! Heaven is reincarnated, destiny is impermanent, anything can happen in this world, and the surface of everything may be covered with a veil of color. Never think that you You really have fully understood a person, never think that some things will definitely not happen, and even some accepted truths may be wrong... Huh, Lord City Master, you are still too young after all... Uh, cough Cough, take that last sentence as if I didn’t say it.”
The set of words that Ye Tianxie "taught" Ye Tianxie before, was quoted by Ye Tianxie, and pushed back completely. His complexion is so wonderful, sometimes red, sometimes white, sometimes green...
The most direct feeling is... the old face is completely humiliated.
He had spent most of the day educating him earnestly...
How dare he actually got it!
He actually got the gentian of the undead demon dragon.
Before that, I was talking about stand-up comedy?
City Lord Tianchen held back for a long time, unable to utter a single word. There was an unknown kind of anger in his chest, which was called aggrieved. And being educated by Ye Tianxie, he couldn't refute a single word. Ye Tianxie's education was based on the facts in front of him, and his education to Ye Tianxie... Damn, it was immediately overturned by the following facts.
City Lord Tianchen resisted the urge to slap his head, raised his head, and said with a forced calm: "This is indeed the gentian of the undead demon dragon...how did you get it?"
"Of course I killed it, and then I got it."
"You went to the Tower of Destiny? This undead demon dragon, but I saw it sealed into the Tower of Destiny with my own eyes!" The Lord of Tianchen stared at him and said.
"Yeah, of course I killed it after entering the Tower of Destiny." Ye Tianxie showed an expression of "isn't that obvious?"
"..." City Master Tianchen was completely speechless.
Ye Tianxie raised his eyebrows, and finally stopped hitting him, and said: "My lord, I have already taken what you want... Speaking of which, what do you want its gentian for? Since you need its gentian , why was it sealed in the Tower of Destiny in the first place?"
City Lord Tianchen didn't take his eyes off Ye Tianxie's face. After holding back for a long time, he finally continued to ask: "Tell me first, how did you enter the Tower of Destiny? With your strength, they can't Impossible to let you in."
"This...is a secret." Ye Tianxie said with a smile.
"Okay." The Lord of Tianchen City didn't ask any more questions. He grabbed the gentian of the undead demon dragon with his hand and said, "I really need this gentian very much. Back then, the undead demon dragon suddenly appeared in the damp area north of Tianchen City. The appearance of the land brought great disasters to my Tianchen City, and at that time my wife and daughter were also affected by the turbidity of the death of the undead demon dragon, only to find out after sealing the undead demon dragon into the Tower of Destiny... still It often occurs. Later, Kong Xiu told me that because it was discovered too late, the turbid air of death had penetrated deep into the bone marrow, and it was difficult to remove it with external force. To eradicate it, you must need the gentian of this undead demon dragon..."
City Lord Tianchen picked up the gentian of the undead demon dragon, and said excitedly: "I thought that it would be impossible to see the undead demon dragon again in this life, but I didn't expect that its gentian actually appeared in front of me... I It’s really great that my wife and daughter don’t have to suffer from the poison of death and their hearts from now on. Young man, no matter what, I really don’t know how to thank you. Wait for a while, I’ll go first Let him use it as medicine, go and come back."
"Hey!" Ye Tianxie stepped sideways in front of City Lord Tianchen, and then took back the gentian of the undead demon dragon and put it in his backpack: "Master City Lord... the question about the reward... that The promised Heaven Punishing Emperor Bow..."
Tianchen City Lord: ⊙﹏⊙b~~~
