Chapter 496 Sheng Xuanqing's Favorability

But even in the face of the Ningzhou City Guard, Huo Zhen and his two bodyguards were still unscrupulous.

Dozens of members of the guard were injured by the two bodyguards.

This is unacceptable.

The news soon reached Sheng Xuanqing, and then to Yu Xinling.

In fact, everyone knows that Huo Zhen would never go to Ningzhou to make trouble for no reason. There must be more actions behind this.

But Sheng Xuanqing and Yu Xinling could not just watch Huo Zhen make trouble in Ningzhou and then leave.

Not to mention that Ningzhou has now joined the Xiacheng State Alliance, even if it has not, Ningzhou’s dignity and human rights cannot be trampled on by Huo Zhen.

After learning about the incident, Yu Xinling asked Sheng Xuanqing to inform the Elders of the matter, and then personally took action to take down Huo Zhen and the two bodyguards.

Seeing Yu Xinling come forward, Huo Zhen and the two bodyguards did not resist.

When Huo Zhen was captured by the guards, he was actually smiling.

Then, less than half an hour after they were arrested, the Xia Federation made a negotiation with the Xia City-State Alliance, demanding that the Xia City-State Alliance hand over Huo Zhen and the two bodyguards to the Xia Federation for disposal.

The Xia Federation has its own laws. Huo Zhen and the two bodyguards are from the Xia Federation and should be returned to the Federation for trial.

This is clearly an attempt to slap in the face.

Or a demonstration.

If the Xia City-State Alliance handed the people over, it would be interpreted by countless people as the Xia City-State Alliance being afraid of the Xia Federation.

The matter has fermented online, and this is related to the face of the Xia City-State Alliance.

Giving in at this time will inevitably make many people waver.

Ling Tian and others quickly convened a meeting of elders, and even Li Hao was dragged to attend the meeting.

At the meeting, when Ling Tian asked Li Hao, an honorary elder, for his opinion, Li Hao only said: "Hand over? Hand over shit!"

He was not sure of beating Huo Lei, but it did not mean that he was afraid of Huo Lei.

He thought that if Huo Lei had the guts, he would go to Ningzhou City to rob people.

With Li Hao's words, Ling Tian and the others also felt confident.

On the same day, the Xia City-State Alliance responded to the negotiations of the Xia Federation. Huo Lei committed the crime in Ningzhou and could only accept the legal sanctions of the Xia City-State Alliance.

Huo Lei did not negotiate with Ling Tian and others privately or through the Yanhuang Association.

Only the next day, the Xia Federation issued an announcement that the Huazhou Metropolitan Area under the jurisdiction of the Federation would launch a guard team to clean up the fierce beasts in the northeast of Huazhou.

This move is intended to enhance the experience of the Huazhou Guard in dealing with the beast tide and eliminate the fierce beasts in the northeast of Huazhou, creating a better living environment for the people of Huazhou.

Remind the free warriors not to go to the wilderness area in the northeast of Huazhou to carry out activities in the near future, so as to avoid accidental injuries.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Xia Federation is going to deter Ningzhou.

Because Ningzhou is in the northeast of Huazhou and borders Huazhou.

Originally, the Wentai, Haidu, Huazhou, and Hangzhou metropolitan areas around Ningzhou all belonged to the Xia City-State Alliance.

When Ningzhou encountered the beast tide, Huazhou and Hangzhou City also sent a lot of armed forces to support Ningzhou.

Only on the day that Huo Lei established the Xiada Alliance, Huazhou also announced that it had joined the Xiada Federation.

Now in Xia territory, the urban areas and forces of both sides are intertwined.

Ling Tian and others were very angry when they knew that Huazhou was going to hold an exercise in the northeast.

Although Sheng Xuanqing is a woman, she is also a hot-tempered person.

After communicating with the Elders Council, it was immediately announced that the Ningzhou Guard would also hold a large-scale exercise in the southwest of Ningzhou City.

This exercise will be a joint military exercise between Ningzhou's ground combat forces and air combat forces.

The smell of gunpowder is very strong.

Li Hao took Su Liluo, Ling Xuanxue, Xiao Manshi, Dugu Yiyi, Xuanyuan Ying, An Qing and other women to Ningzhou City on the same day.

Huo Zhen has been imprisoned in the prison of Ningzhou City.

With Huo Lei's current status, he generally won't go to Ningzhou City to do things like jailbreaking, but it's hard to say.

Yu Xinling personally called Li Hao and invited him to her Ningzhou City. In name, of course, it was a military parade.

Li Hao arrived in Ningzhou City at around 4 pm.

Sheng Xuanqing, Jie Yingwei and other important figures in Ningzhou City all greeted him at the Ningzhou Airport.

"Hello, Councillor Li Hao!"

Sheng Xuanqing, as the city lord and a member of the Council of Elders, was the first to shake hands with Li Hao.

"Hello, Elder Xuanqing."

Li Hao had a smile on his face.

He had not spoken to Sheng Xuanqing before when he attended Sheng Xiang's funeral. The two did not have much communication at the Council of Elders meeting.

Strictly speaking, this was the first time they had dealt with each other.

[Ding! ]

[Villain system: Congratulations to the host for successfully triggering the task of snatching Sheng Xuanqing, the current progress is 23%! ]

[Tip: Complete the task to get the branch reward! ]

The sudden prompt from the system made Li Hao stunned.

He naturally did not expect that in the original work, Qin Yu and the seemingly cold Sheng Xuanqing would have a relationship.

I should have dealt with Sheng Xuanqing earlier!

Logically speaking, with Sheng Xuanqing's identity, it is possible for him to deal with Qin Yu. Why didn't I think of it before!

Seeing that the task had just been triggered and the progress reached 23, Li Hao felt a little happy and complacent.

Sheng Xuanqing had a very good impression of him.

I don't know if it was because of the last time he came to Ningzhou City to help resist the beast tide.

This is certainly a good thing.

Originally, he only had Catherine's mission to complete, and the progress has only reached 63% so far. He was worried about how to complete this mission to improve his strength.

The sudden triggering of Sheng Xuanqing's mission was like a timely help.

Although completing a mission can only be done slowly except for taking shortcuts, it still gives him more hope.

Moreover, if he is lucky, two missions may bring his strength to the peak.

That would save him a lot of hard work.

"Is your mother doing well recently?"

Li Hao asked with concern.

Sheng Xuanqing certainly didn't think much about it, but was a little moved and said, "Thank you, Councillor Li Hao, for your concern. My mother is fine."

Li Hao smiled, then turned around and shook hands with Jie Yingwei next to him.

He was satisfied, because it was this simple greeting that Sheng Xuanqing's favorability towards him increased by 3%.

With this trend, he might be able to complete Sheng Xuanqing's mission before completing Catherine's mission.

After all, he will stay in Ningzhou City during this period, and there are plenty of opportunities to deal with Sheng Xuanqing.

After shaking hands with several important figures in Ningzhou City, Li Hao and his team got on the car arranged by Sheng Xuanqing.

The motorcade went straight to the City Lord's Mansion.

Sheng Xuanqing held a dinner party in the City Lord's Mansion.

Yu Xinling attended in person.
