Chapter 471: Letter of Recommendation

Cang Zheng really let go of his face this time, because he found that the bastard in front of him is not useless, and some things are really worth learning.

"If you know how to ask, it seems that you are still unsaved."

Wutian glanced at him indifferently, put down the jug, straightened his face, and said, "Do you still remember that before going upstairs, He Zhi asked us why Zhuang Luochen wasn't here?"

After thinking about it, Cang Zheng nodded and said: "I did ask, but it doesn't mean anything! After all, they are old acquaintances, so it makes sense to ask."

"It's nothing to ask, but when he said this, I obviously noticed that he wiped his sweat without any trace, and in the process, I also found his hands trembling slightly, Do you know why?"

"He's nervous." Cang Zheng said without thinking.

"That's right, these reactions will only appear when a person is in a particularly tense state, so I kept an extra eye on it at the time, and when I got here, I tasted the dishes first. As I expected, the inside It's really tricky."

"I see."

Cang Zheng suddenly realized, and took a deep look at the bastard in front of him. Although he usually hates him, he has to admit that his character is really not comparable to that of ordinary people.

Afterwards, Cang Zheng asked again: "Then who do you think is the person behind He Zhi?"

"You will get an answer to this question soon, just wait quietly! If I don't expect, someone will definitely come to visit in less than half an hour."

After finishing speaking, Wutian grabbed the jug and drank again, leaving Cang Zheng alone, thinking hard, and finally racked his brains but couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it at all, but he didn't know what to do .

Time is lost in the boring waiting.

"Boom!"

"Lord Li, Lord Yan, the villain has something to report." Exactly half an hour later, there were knocks on the door, followed by He Zhi's voice.

"It's really calculated by him." Cang Zheng murmured in his heart, just when his lips moved slightly, and when he was about to speak, suddenly Jian Wutian shook his head at him.

Seeing this, Cang Zheng frowned, but followed his advice and didn't make a sound.

"Master Li? Master Yan?" Seeing that there was no response for a long time, He Zhi's voice sounded again, but there was a hint of probing in the tone.

"Fatty He, you don't need to knock it anymore. The 'Soul-removing Fragrance' is a venom personally prepared by the commander of the shadow guards back then. Even if it is a strong man in the stage of transformation, he will die on the spot if he takes it, let alone Li Feng."

"That's right, in order to obtain this bottle of soul-snatching incense, the city lord and the deputy city lord have paid a huge price. If it doesn't work, wouldn't the two lords have been working in vain?"

Before He Zhi finished speaking, two unfamiliar voices sounded again, and then the door of the private room was directly kicked open with a bang.

However, when the door opened and saw the scene inside the room, He Zhi and the other two middle-aged men froze on the spot with astonishment on their faces.

"Lord Li, Lord Yan, please forgive me!"

After a brief absence, He Zhi's complexion changed suddenly. Holding his chubby body, he scrambled to the side of Wutian and the two, and said sadly: "My lords, I am just a small cultivator in the pulse expansion stage. With a hundred guts, I don't dare to plot against you! I was forced to do so, please forgive me..."

"Go out!" Wutian said lightly.

"Thank you, Mr. Li, thank you, Mr. Kan, and thank you two adults." He Zhi heard the words, hurriedly thanked him again and again, wiped off his cold sweat, then turned around and walked out the door in fear.

However, as if he was exhausted, he almost staggered and fell to the ground just after walking a few steps. In the end, he could only support the wall and move his fat body out step by step. It can be seen that He Zhi was really frightened It's not light, and I still can't slow down.

After He Zhi left, Wutian looked at the two stunned middle-aged men at the door, and said indifferently: "Go back and tell Liu Taijun and Xu Yuan that if you want to keep the positions of the city lord and deputy city lord, let them come back within half a quarter of an hour. Come here, otherwise, Yan Kuan and I will go to the City Lord's Mansion in person."

"Yes, let's go!"

Hearing this, as if they had received an amnesty, the two middle-aged men trembled and bowed three times at once, then ran away without daring to stay, but they did not forget to close the door before fleeing.

"Just let them go like this?" Cang Zheng frowned, the displeasure on his face was obvious.

"They, like He Zhi, are just running away, and killing them won't do much, let's wait for the people behind the scenes to come!" Wutian smiled coldly.

"The people behind the scenes you mentioned are Liu Taijun and Xu Yuan? Who are they?" Cang Zheng asked doubtfully.

"Liu Taijun is the Lord of the Ninth City, and Xu Yuan, hehe, is the Deputy Lord of the Ninth City."

"Aren't Li Feng and Yan Kuan the protectors of the Ninth City? How could they secretly plot against these two people?" Cang Zheng became more and more confused, feeling as if he was in a fog.

Wutian smiled lightly, and asked instead of answering: "Do you still remember the conversation between those city guards when we first arrived at the city gate?"

After pondering for a while, Cang Zheng seemed to have thought of something suddenly, and suddenly said: "So that's the case, I fully understand. According to several city guards, those who guard the altar can get a chance to challenge the city lord and deputy city lord. It is precisely because of this that Liu Taijun and Xu Yuan were worried that their status would be threatened, so they secretly poisoned Li Feng and Li Feng!"

"You're not stupid, but you don't have a long memory. If you had paid attention to the conversations of the city guards earlier, you wouldn't have come to ask me for advice, would you?" Wutian joked, then took a sip of wine, shook his head and said ironically: "Desire is something that can really kill people sometimes."

"Cut! Who in the world doesn't have desires? Just take you as an example. If you had no desires, what would you do to take the sword sealer of the Sword Sect and the ghost messenger of the Ghost Sect as your own? If you had no desires, you wouldn't let the Shura Palace Developed to Zhongyaozhou."

"Maybe!" Wutian sighed softly, did not continue talking, just drank the wine blindly, with indescribable emotions in his eyes.

"What on earth is this bastard pretending to be?" Cang Zheng shook his head, in fact, there is no bitterness or tears in his heart, but these bitterness and tears never vent in front of outsiders.

Time was lost for a while, and half a quarter of an hour passed quickly, and at that moment, the knock on the door came as expected.

"Boom!"

"Lord Li, Your Excellency, City Lord Liu and Deputy City Lord Xu are here."

"Restrain your breath, don't let them see our true cultivation." Wutian told Cang Zheng, and then said lightly: "Let them in."

The voice just fell to the ground, and with a creak, the door was slowly opened, and two men in black gradually appeared in their sights.

The one on the left is a big man with thick short hair, his upper body is bare, his body is burly and powerful, and on his chest, there are several huge scars, which are like several centipedes writhing with his breathing. Like, it looks extraordinarily creepy!

On the right is a rather thin man with yellowish skin, a hooked nose, and sunken eye sockets. His dark eyes are gleaming with gleam, and there is a pungent smell. One can tell at a glance that this person is very Good-hearted people!

The big man is the lord of the Ninth City, Liu Taijun, and the other is naturally the deputy lord of the Ninth City, Xu Yuan.

"You two city lords, please sit down." Wutian smiled faintly.

Ever since the door was opened, Liu Taijun and Xu Yuan had been sizing up the two former subordinates in front of them, but what surprised them was that after a hundred years, they couldn't see through them. Did the two rogue bastards really break through?

Previously, when the two subordinates came back and reported what Wutian said to them truthfully, Liu Taijun and Xu Yuan were furious. They never thought that the subordinates who had obeyed their words before would dare to say such disobedient words. Unexpectedly, Duohunxiang did not kill the two of them.

In addition to being angry, they had to weigh carefully. If the two of them really broke through to the small maturity stage and challenged themselves when the time came, wouldn't they just have to suffer a disastrous defeat? Not to mention losing face, he couldn't even keep his position as the city lord.

The most important thing is that the Dark City Lord has a rule that the Nine Cities City Lord cannot refuse any challenge initiated by the person who guards the altar!

After repeated discussions, the two still planned to come to find out, but the result really confirmed their guess, they had really made a breakthrough.

"snort!"

Both Liu Taijun snorted from their noses at the same time, and walked into the private room one after another, while He Zhi bowed consciously, closed the door tightly, and left quickly.

Sitting opposite Wutian and Wutian, Liu Taijun smiled, but it was uglier than crying, and said: "I never thought that only a hundred years have passed, and both of you have broken through to the stage of Xiaocheng, what a frightening young man!"

"Hehe! The city lord Miao Zan, we can achieve what we are today, thanks to the cultivation of the city lord in the past. I, Li Feng, will never forget this great kindness." Wutian laughed.

"It turns out that you asked me to hide my aura to intimidate these two people!" Cang Zheng sent a voice transmission.

"Generally speaking, many of my actions are purposeful." Wutian responded.

"It seems that you are not an ungrateful person." Liu Taijun smiled slightly, but from this smile, Wutian clearly saw a hint of sarcasm, Liu Taijun glanced at Wutian and the two, and then said: "Speak! How can you give up competing for the position of city lord and deputy city lord."

"It's very simple, I need your recommendation letter."

"What, you want to run for the shadow guard?"

Liu Taijun stood up suddenly, and stared at Wutian and Cang Zheng in disbelief, because no one knew better than them what a shadow guard meant. As long as the election was successful, the status in the Dark City would be changed drastically.

Likewise, no one knows better than they the difficulty of gaining awe.

"Do you know how difficult and dangerous it is to run for Shadow Guard?" Xu Yuan, who had been silent for a while, said gloomily.

"Of course I know, please let the two city lords do the same." Wutian nodded, cupped his hands and said: "As long as you give me a letter of recommendation, I guarantee that Yan Yan and I will never make the idea of ​​being the city lord and deputy city lord, and I promise , if I succeed, I will definitely 'take care' of you two in the future."

After pondering for a while, Liu Taijun nodded: "Since you are determined to participate, it happens that I haven't selected a good candidate yet, okay, I'll give you a letter of recommendation."

After finishing speaking, Liu Taijun took out a black token from his bosom, which was as big as a palm, and the word 'nine' was engraved on the front. This is the token of the Lord of the Ninth City. is this thing.
