Chapter 84 People from the Holy City

……

"Now that you know where that kid is, you should hurry up and set off to bring him and the Black Serpent back!"

Zhu Meng quickly assembled the palace guards, but Pang Lai stopped them.

"Wait a moment."

"Now that things have come to this, are you still going to protect that kid?" Zhu Meng said in a deep voice.

"Pang Lai! If the plague continues to spread, who will bear the responsibility—yours or mine!"

"Still that impulsive, unpredictable brat!"

"Wu Pingjing! You shall lead the troops now..."

"Bless him!" Pang Lai said sternly.

"Can't you use your brain before you act? I told you, they're in heaven!"

"The totem serpent is also in the sky!"

"This isn't the right thing to do..." Zhu Meng was stunned, his expression changing rapidly.

"Is the Black Serpent also in the heavens?"

Is that giant serpent, measured in kilometers, in the sky?

"Don't tell me that kid lifted the Black Serpent into the sky," Zhu Meng said with a look of suspicion.

Given the size of the Black Serpent, could Lü Cheng really carry it up there?

"No, that's not it." Pang Lai shook his head.

"That……"

"He created an island in the sky! The Black Serpent lives on that island!"

"..."

"Are you serious?"

Zhu Meng was completely bewildered.

They built an island? An island where the Xuan Snake can be placed?

This seems even more outrageous, doesn't it?

"I won't stop you from taking action against the Xuan Serpent, but you'd better think carefully about what will happen if you take down that island in the sky," Pang Lai said.

"What would happen if the Black Serpent fell down?"

"Do you want to destroy this city?"

Although he didn't know how Lü Cheng got that thing up there, but!

He had no doubt that the kid was capable of anything!

……

"this……"

Following the location given by Lü Cheng, Pang Lai led the skeptical Zhu Meng into the air.

Then, upon seeing the enormous floating island hidden behind the thick clouds, Zhu Meng's expression froze completely.

"Is this kid even human?"

Is this something a human being could do?

Judging by its appearance, it is already close to ten kilometers wide. This island is so big that it is comparable to some small and medium-sized cities!

If this thing falls, it will destroy far more than just the city of Hangzhou!

This is a natural disaster!

"Don't get too close, the Black Serpent is very sensitive right now." Pang Lai pulled Zhu Meng back, who wanted to get any closer.

"What exactly does he want to do?" Zhu Meng asked.

"Why don't you call him and ask him yourself?" Pang Lai said.

"Make a phone call?" Zhu Meng was taken aback.

"Will he answer?"

"Have you ever fought one?" Pang Lai asked.

"..."

Dudu!

"Feed?"

"Lu Cheng, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"What are you doing?"

"What do you want to do with this island?" Zhu Meng asked in a deep voice.

"The black serpent is too big. I'll get it a place to rest," Lü Cheng said.

"It's easy to be besieged on the ground, so I had to bring it to the sky."

"Can't you take it far away?" Zhu Meng asked.

"Why run away?" Lu Cheng asked, puzzled.

"If I run away with the Black Serpent, wouldn't that be considered fleeing from justice?"

"..." I wish you good fortune.

"Are you serious?"

"Otherwise what?" Lu Cheng retorted.

"..."

Zhu Meng took a deep breath. "Can you come down now?"

"oh."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lü Cheng on the island instantly appeared in front of Zhu Meng and the other person.

"what?"

Zhu Meng's face darkened. "I won't ask how you got this island here. I'll just ask you, how do you plan to take this thing down?"

Compared to this island, the threat posed by the Xuan Snake is not that great!

"Why do we have to go down there?" Lu Cheng asked, puzzled.

"Isn't it better to let this thing float? You said the Black Serpent is harmful to humans when it lives on the ground, so it's safe for it to live in the sky, right?"

"..."

"I won't kill the Xuan Snake anymore, can you just take the island down?" Zhu Meng said in a deep voice.

Threat!

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

This is a threat!

Such a large island, let alone Lü Cheng, even a super-level mage or a forbidden spell mage couldn't keep this thing flying in the sky forever!

This kid is threatening him!

Threaten him with the whole city!

"No," Lü Cheng refused.

"First of all, I don't think you have any credibility. I've seen plenty of people who discard their tools after they've served their purpose. If I were to drop the island, you probably wouldn't even spare me."

"Secondly, I won't let go of the sky island I painstakingly created! Absolutely not!"

"You!" Zhu Meng's face darkened.

Lu Cheng raised an eyebrow. "What? You want to make a move?"

"Come on, I'll stand right here and let you hit me!"

"Do you dare to hit me?"

"Cough cough!" Pang Lai coughed heavily twice and pulled Zhu Meng away.

"Don't get so angry, let's talk this out."

If you piss him off, Lü Cheng is really capable of smashing the island down!

"Acheng, did you find out something?" Pang Lai asked.

"The plague has nothing to do with the Black Serpent," Lü Cheng said.

"It was man-made."

Zhu Meng snorted coldly, "Are you going to say I did it again?"

"It's not this Iron-Headed Kid." Lü Cheng took out a blood serum.

"I stole this from the blood bank last night. It doesn't taste right; it's fake."

"Fake?" Pang Lai took the blood serum.

"How do you know it's fake?" Zhu Meng asked.

"My summoned beast used this stuff before when it was in Bo City. It smelled it and realized it wasn't the right product," Lu Cheng said.

"Your summoned beast?" Zhu Meng asked with suspicion.

How could Yalong smell this?

"Take it back and test it to see if I'm telling the truth," Lu Cheng said.

"Oh, and while we're at it, have someone raid the blood bank and take all that blood out, otherwise the evidence might get destroyed."

"Evidence?" Zhu Meng was taken aback.

Lu Cheng shrugged. "I only have suspicions. Verification isn't my job. I've given you the clues. I'll give you three days. If you can't produce enough evidence, or if you haven't even found the mastermind, then I'll have to take action directly."

Zhu Meng's eyes twitched slightly.

Those lines are so damn familiar!

"Who is the mastermind behind this?" Zhu Meng asked.

"Go check it out yourself. Anyway, this matter isn't important. You should deal with the plague first." Lu Cheng waved his hand and disappeared from the spot.

"He..." Zhu Meng's face darkened.

"Alright, he's right. Dealing with the plague is the most important thing now," Pang Lai said.

"and……"

"Beep beep!"

"Teacher! Something's happened!" Jiang Yu's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone.

"What's wrong?"

"People from the Holy City have arrived. They say the suspects who attacked the Holy City some time ago might be connected to you, and they want you to cooperate with the investigation," Jiang Yu said.

"Suspect?" Pang Lai was taken aback.

"What's going on?"

The Holy City? Could it be that the kid secretly donned angelic armor outside and someone saw him?

"It's the kind of dark creature that Lü Cheng summoned before," Jiang Yu said.

"I don't know who spread the word, or if it was a spy from the Holy City in the capital, but they said that the dark creature that Lü Cheng summoned was very similar to the one that attacked the Holy City some time ago."

"This is the first time such a dark, undead-like creature has appeared, so they suspect that Lü Cheng has some connection with the people who attacked the Holy City before, and they are asking him to cooperate with the investigation."

The attack on the holy city six months ago shocked the whole world!

This is the first time such a thing has happened since the Holy City was founded. Although it did not cause too many casualties, I heard that the situation in the Holy City was very bad at the time!

Half the city has fallen!

If it weren't for the fact that Lü Cheng was an honorary councilor of the Magic Court, these guys from the Holy City would probably have already taken him back!
