There's something wrong with this guy

Chapter 142 Zhao Cheng Locked Up
Xi Huanyan and his party left the city, but were blocked by a golden head dangling from the side.

"Little Lion King Breaks Dawn?" Xi Huanyan sat on the horse and looked at her, "Do you still want to fight?"

"It's not necessary." The little lion king thought to himself that he dared to love and hate, and could afford to lose. There was no reason to be entangled, but she yearned for powerful power, so she came, "I know you are going to rebuild Muzhou Academy, I want to see If Muzhou Academy can be truly rebuilt, the Green Tree Guild will be the sincerity of me and Master Shenguang."

Xi Huanyan agreed, "Welcome."

The little lion king immediately brought out a majestic flame lion, which was very familiar, "Which city are we going to, Dongjun?"

The students in the same picture were overwhelmed by the confidence she exuded, and secretly murmured to themselves that this real bull, who was yelling at them a few days ago, changed his attitude today without any disobedience.

Xi Huanyan smiled, not surprised by the choice of the little lion king, "Qin Zuocheng."

She plans to meet Mu Xingzhou, the dean of the original highest academy in Muzhou, but she will not change her schedule for this reason. She and the students in the same picture will still measure the land of Muzhou with their feet according to the plan, with punches, kicks, and moves. The reputation of the academy has awakened the respect of the people of Muzhou for the academy.

At the same time, she will also take the portrait of Mu Xingzhou to find out his whereabouts. Unfortunately, his whereabouts are unpredictable. After checking the map of Muzhou in her hand, there is no news of him. The reputation of the academy is so bad. It is expected that it will be gradually accepted and even sought after by the younger generation in Muzhou.

It has been a year since the group traveled all over Muzhou, and only Zhaocheng, the main city of Muzhou, remained unreached.

There are many masters in the main city, they have no experience, no experience, and really don't have the confidence to stand up in the main city. Today is different. After a year of training with others, adventures in dangerous places, and occasional head-on collisions with strange monsters, the group When people are reborn and their foundation is getting stronger and stronger, it is the time when morale is full.

The strange thing is that as soon as they entered the area of ​​Zhaocheng, they felt deserted, and the villages and small towns they passed closed their entrances, with a look of martial law.

There is currently no battle in Muzhou, and it is probably due to strange demons.

"Go directly to the main city." There have been a lot of changes this year. The empire doesn't really want to take over the mess of Tianhuo Dao that was invaded by the Western Regions. Seeing that Xingjin regained Muzhou, they don't want Muzhou to be included in Xingjin's fief , and Xingjin will use the newly recovered land to seek more manpower and material resources to support the battle against other states.

After arguing between the two parties, it was finally determined that, except for Tongzhou, Muzhou and the states that will be recovered in the future, the Scorching Sun Mansion and the academy system will be under the direct control of imperial officials, and the counties will be under the leadership of Xingjin. Four states were formally designated as fiefdoms, and the control of the other three states would be taken back by the empire.

It is a precedent for the empire to hand over the Scorching Sun Mansion and Academy system of the same state to Xingjin. The Scorching Sun Mansion and Academy system in other states will never dare to hand over. After all, cleaning up strange demons is the meaning of the empire’s existence. One, the academy is the basis for the empire to control the combat power of Yuanshi martial artists. Losing these two is equivalent to losing the popular support of this state.

But Xingjin needs combat power now, so she has to fight for the actual control of the academy system, so the highest academy in Muzhou is stuck by her and has not been established for a long time.

However, the Scorching Sun Mansion, which was taken over by the empire, may have been instructed by the superiors, and when they met with Xi Huanyan and his party several times, there would always be some friction, and she would lose face on the spot.

So realizing that it was related to the strange demon this time, Xi Huanyan didn't want to meddle in other people's business, so as not to conflict with the Scorching Sun Mansion again.

Approaching Zhao City, the mottled city wall stood up in the distance, and the group of people drove their horses to it, but they didn't get close for a while.

Xi Huanyan reined in the reins, "They have activated the defense of the main city, and outsiders can't get in, so stay put and rest, I'll get a message."

"If the city defenses are opened for the strange demons, then the strange demons should be outside the city." Qu Fujiao asked for orders, "I will lead the people to clean up the surroundings and make a place to rest."

"Ah."

Xi Huanyan recalled the source code of Uncle Muzhou, and left him a message with a Dongshi lottery. The other end quickly returned, saying that the city defense was opened at the request of the Scorching Sun Mansion.

According to the investigation, there were several strange demons raging outside the city this time, but they have not been caught yet. Therefore, for the safety of the city, the Scorching Sun Mansion ordered the city to be closed until the strange demons were killed, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

As long as it is related to strange demons, the power of Scorching Sun Mansion is higher than that of the state capital, and the state capital cannot open the city to release people.

Xi Huanyan closed her eyes and thought about it. Another message came from the other end. It was that the rank and appearance of the strange demons were known, and they were asked to go to the nearest town to rest temporarily. The state government will communicate with the Scorching Sun Mansion as soon as possible to take them in.

With the Scorching Sun Mansion intervening, Xi Huanyan felt that this city was not so easy to enter, so she told Qu Fujiao and others to stop busy and go to the town to avoid it.

The little lion king rushed back excitedly on the flaming lion, "Are you not camping? The strange demon is very strong this time?"

"There are seven heads, and the strongest one has at least five or six stars."

The little lion king is weak, four stars may be able to take it by force, but five or six stars really can't be beaten.

A group of people were about to start again, when they heard the sound of horseshoes on the official road, a person rushed over, waved his hand and asked loudly before approaching, "Ahead is a student from the same library!"

"I'm from the highest academy in Muzhou, just call me Mengshi." The man dismounted from his horse and saluted Xi Huanyan happily, "I heard from the guards in Xiaodie Town that a group of young people passed by, so I guess it's Dongjun you .”

Xi Huanyan: "Are you the town guard?"

"No, I'm temporarily living in Xiaodie Town." Meng Shi hesitated for a while, not sure about Dong Jun's attitude, and tentatively said, "I'm looking for Dean Mu Xingzhou, and Lu Fei of Luzuo City Civil and Military Academy is my old classmate , I heard from him that Dongjun is also looking for Dean Xingzhou?"

"Yes." When she left Lu Zuo City, she expressed in front of Lu Fei that it would be very difficult to find someone who had been missing for more than [-] years.

In her prediction, if Mu Xingzhou's influence on the teachers and students of the Supreme Academy does not diminish, then after she expresses her intention to find him, someone should help to find him, but unfortunately no one has contacted her for a year.

"Do you have the whereabouts of Dean Mu Xingzhou?"

Mengshi didn't dare to take Joe, "I've been looking for Dean Xingzhou for a long time. Recently, there was a news that an ascetic who was suspected to be him appeared in Xiangcun, five miles away from Xiaodie Town, three years ago. He entered the Zhaowu Mountains next to Xiangcun, and no one has seen him come out since then."

"That being the case, let's go to Xiangcun to have a look, maybe we can find some clues."

"Don't do it, Dong Jun." Meng Shi said, "Ten days ago, Xiang Village was attacked by a strange demon at night, and now there is no one there. The wounded and injured are all in Xiaodie Town, and the strange demon has not been eliminated. For Dong Jun's safety, please don't wander around. Well, I have contacted other alumni, and we will discuss it later."

"That's up to you, you can ask for help if you want." Xi Huanyan got on the horse, "You lead the way, Zhaocheng is under martial law, we can't get in for the time being, we have to go to Xiaodie Town to rest."

"Hey, okay, Dongjun and all the students come with me."
