She asked three questions in a row, and Keqing told her everything that happened in the City Lord's Mansion. Xiang Yanwu opened her mouth wide, and finally gave her a thumbs up, looking at Keqing with admiration.

"As expected of you, Lord City Lord!"

He was able to show disrespect to the Lord of Qingcang City, severely injure the other party's second son, and still escape unscathed! !

awesome!

"Let's not talk about this for now. How are your men? Have they all been released?"

"Don't worry, he has been released. With the notice from the elders, those people released him very quickly."

Speaking of this, Xiang Yanwu smiled bitterly.

"Hey, it's clear at a glance that they also know that there's no big problem with our Merchant Alliance, otherwise how could they let us go without reporting to the City Lord? They just want to vent their anger."

"If I were the Great Merchant Alliance, how would they dare to do this? If I hadn't run away and challenged Qingcangcheng's face, I'm afraid there wouldn't be so many pursuers!"

"Then you have to work hard and strive to become a big business alliance that others dare not bully."

Keqing was not surprised by this. The law of the jungle exists everywhere, whether it is among mortals or in the world of cultivation. As long as there are people, they cannot be separated.

"Hehe, of course, but this still depends on you, Lord City Lord..."

Xiang Yanwu grinned, with a hint of flattery in her eyes.

"Which business alliance doesn't have a backer? If your Licheng becomes one of the Hundred Cities, then I will also have a backer! Who will dare to bully our business alliance then?"

"I didn't agree to be your backer!" Keqing glanced at him, "Besides, it's not that easy to get a share of the pie from 100 cities."

"Hey! Others can't do it, Lord City Lord, but I don't believe it!" Xiang Yanwu looked around carefully, then approached quietly, "The senior who was on your flying boat before should have cultivated to that level..."

She whispered, curiosity in her eyes.

"From the tone of that person, he seems to be very close to you. Could it be that you have found this powerful person from somewhere..."

Xiang Yanwu's guess was not made casually. After all, weren't most of the people in Licheng at the Spirit Transformation Stage found by the other party from wild beasts?

She would occasionally encounter them when she went to Li City, and she had sensed their aura, but it was much inferior to that unbelievably beautiful senior.

Xiang Yanwu may not be good at other things, but her eyesight and sense of crisis are no worse than others. She even has a special secret technique to sense the situation of others. In her opinion, even those leading the gods who are chasing her cannot compare to the sense of crisis brought by that person!

The feeling was like a breeze seeping from the abyss. Although it was not biting, it carried an overbearing and suffocating fear. Just a slight touch was enough to scare people to death.

Such a person is definitely not just in the Spirit Transformation Stage, and since he is not in the Spirit Transformation Stage, the only possibility is self-evident.

Xiang Yanwu looked around with a smile in her eyes.

"Where is that senior? If the city lord has come to find him, then there must be a True Lord in Li City. Then it will be easy for him to advance to the Hundred Cities!"

By then, they will have a strong backer, and who will dare to bully their business alliance at will? Judging from the look of City Lord Li, he does not intend to hide his identity as an alchemist, although he can no longer hide it.

After all, some people now know that the elixirs come from Li City. No one is a fool. After coming here a few times, they will know that the elixirs in Li City are much better than those in other places. And with the development of Li City, it has doubled in just half a year and has more than a dozen subsidiary cities. Although its power is not as strong as those hundred cities, it is also famous under the hundred cities.

After all, whether it is its expansion speed, or the fact that it is not one of the Hundred Cities but can protect those lower cities with its strange formations and battle formations, and that it is obviously weak but has formed alliances with many of the Hundred Cities, the so-called essence that can replace the wild stone, and the abundance of elixirs.

As the families return one after another, Keqing becomes involved with the Lianxu wild beast near the vast secret realm again.

His mysterious background, extraordinary temperament, and connection with the feared Yue Hu and Yun Xin made everyone fear Li Cheng.

As Xiang Yanwu had a lot of trade dealings with Keqing, she was very attentive to this. When she heard those rumors, she immediately took them to heart.

"Lord City Lord, is that also the great beast master you invited..."

she asked quietly.

As people from various cities in the vast secret realm returned, there were countless rumors about Keqing. Some said that she was unruly and arrogant, some said that she had a mysterious background and came from a powerful hermit, and some even said that she was transformed from a wild beast, which was why she was so friendly to it and was captured by the fox demon.

No matter what, Keqing is shrouded in a layer of mystery, which cannot conceal her outstanding talent.

Even the small city of Licheng has received a lot of attention. Of course, Xiang Yanwu is most concerned about where Keqing is. After all, according to the news, everyone assumes that Keqing is involved with the Lianxu wild beast and was taken away by that powerful person. It is still unclear whether she can come back. After all, although the other party's attitude seems good, Huashen and Lianxu are not on the same level. After all, humans still have deep grievances with wild beasts, and who in those hundreds of cities doesn't know what the situation is with that fox demon.

At the beginning, the other party tortured many cities, and some of them were even gradually declining due to retaliation.

Xiang Yanwu had also heard about this and was worried, but now that she saw Keqing appear, she was shocked.

While he was happy, he also had some guesses about the woman on the flying boat.

That person must be the legendary wild beast.

Seeing Xiang Yanwu's expectant and curious expression, Keqing hadn't spoken yet when Yuehu, who was lying on top of her head, spoke up: "Why? You seem very interested in me."

"Oh, I can't say I'm interested, but... uh..."

Xiang Yanwu thought it was Keqing's reply and mumbled something subconsciously, only then did she realize that the tone was both strange and familiar.

She raised her head with her stiff neck, and saw a small fox lying on Keqing's head, looking at her playfully. The familiar look overlapped with the one she had seen before.

She swallowed and looked at Keqing.

Isn't this your pet?

Keqing looked back innocently: When did I say that Senior Yuehu is a spiritual pet?

Seeing that Xiang Yanwu was so frightened, Yue Hu smiled lightly and stopped scaring her.

"Okay, don't worry so much. Since you know that I have such a good relationship with the little guy, I will naturally not embarrass you."

Hearing her speak, Xiang Yanwu looked at Keqing and saw Keqing nodded.

"Yes, Sister Yuehu is very easy to talk to. Shopkeeper Xiang doesn't need to worry so much."

At this point, Xiang Yanwu finally breathed a sigh of relief, but then her eyes lit up.

As expected of the City Lord, he actually invited that Void-Refining Wild Beast. Doesn't that mean that Li City will also have a Void-Refining Great Master in the future? This person should be the so-called "demon fox" in the rumors. She has also heard about this. It is said that this wild beast was not an easy one to talk to.

Back then, he relied on his own strength to fight his way out of the siege of hundreds of cities, causing heavy losses to Baicheng at that time. Several great masters of the Void Refining Realm died in succession, and he severely damaged the Beast-Slaying Alliance at that time. He was called the Blood-Slaying Demon Fox.

Now it seems that it is not as scary as the rumors say. If she didn't know that the other party was a great master of the Refining Void Realm, she would have wanted to touch it. It looks so cute, small and furry.

But now, even if she had ten thousand courages, she wouldn't dare to do it.

Although the other party was so harmless and not like what was rumored, but even a tiger is still a big cat without showing its claws and fangs. In Xiang Yanwu's opinion, this person's attitude was most likely due to being the City Lord Keqing.

Therefore, as long as you behave yourself and don't offend anyone, there should be no problem.

Yue Hu was not surprised to see her so reserved.

She looked at Xiang Yanwu and spoke directly.

"You told the little guy about the Dragon Blood Crystal. Where did you get the information from? What exactly happened?"

Seeing Xiang Yanwu looking up at her, Keqing nodded slightly.

"This matter may require Senior's intervention. I have already informed Senior about the matter of Dragon Blood City. The situation in Qingcang City is a bit complicated... Senior may need to take action."

Keqing thought about what she had seen before and frowned slightly.

Seeing Keqing speak, Xiang Yanwu didn't feel any psychological burden and spoke directly.

"I didn't discover this by accident, but the young city lord hinted it to me..."

As Xiang Yanwu told her story one by one, Keqing realized that the source of her information came from the so-called Young City Lord. It would be more accurate to say that the Young City Lord wanted to exchange the information about the Dragon Blood Crystal for something.

"Why would he tell you?"

Yuehu was puzzled.

"Dragon Blood Crystal is so precious, why do I suddenly want to tell you about the background of Qingcang City..."

"Maybe it's because of the alchemist behind me?"

Xiang Yanwu looked at Keqing.

"After all, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is in poor health, and the city lord has such superb alchemy skills that he is very likely to be able to cure him. It is also very reasonable to use the news of the dragon blood crystal to attract an alchemy master to save his life."

"because I?"

Keqing blinked.

"Looking at it this way, it makes sense?"

Keqing thought about it and realized that she was seriously ill and might die at any time. Although the dragon blood crystal was good, it would be fine if it could allow her to survive.

"But are you sure he is qualified to distribute the Dragon Blood Crystal?"

Yue Hu asked, what can a mere young city lord do with such a treasure?

"Well, according to what that guy said, the dragon blood crystal he possessed seemed to be different from the one in Qingcang City."

Xiang Yanwu coughed and then spoke in a low voice.

"That guy seems to have discovered an independent, unmined dragon blood crystal mine! Even Qingcang City doesn't know about it."

Yuehu's eyes lit up.

Keqing was also stunned when she heard this.

"No wonder——"

This news is indeed shocking. It seems that in order to stay alive, the young city lord has made a big move.

Chapter 728: I'm Not Worthy of It (4000)

"Is this news reliable? Is it possible that the other party deceived you?"

Keqing was confused. After all, if the dragon blood crystal mine had not been mined, the value it contained must be immeasurable. Moreover, the vein had not been discovered by Qingcang City, which would undoubtedly reduce a lot of trouble. If this was true, then the young lord of Qingcang City had to be said to be very courageous.

"I don't know whether it's true or not, but I don't think he would deceive me in this regard."

Xiang Yanwu shook her head, not quite sure.

"After all, who would have known that Qingcang City had such a treasure as Dragon Blood Crystal, and that there was more than one such vein."

"I have some doubts. I am being hunted not only because of the young city lord, but also because of the dragon blood crystal.

Mine matters."

"That shouldn't be the case." Keqing thought for a moment. "The other party couldn't have let us out so easily just because of this incident. Otherwise, they would have taken measures long ago."

"Since Qingcang City has kept the news of the Dragon Blood Crystal Mine as a trump card and has not revealed it, it also proves that the other party attaches great importance to it and will not let the news spread. If they really find out that we know about this, they will definitely not remain indifferent."

"I say, you don't have to keep guessing here. When the time comes, we can find the young city lord and that will be the end of it."

Yuehu half-closed her eyes, looking nonchalant.

"If they really want to make a move, I can protect you. What is there to worry about? Even if there is no new mineral vein, the information leaked by the other party has proved that Qingcang City has Dragon Blood Crystal. We can let Qingcang City make up for it when the time comes."

Yue Hu was not worried about this at all. With her and Yun Xin around, the so-called Qingcang City was just a small bug.

"You're right, old fellow..."

As Yue Hu's voice fell, a graceful figure landed silently on the side.

It was only then that Xiang Yanwu discovered it and was shocked.

"Who are you……"

"Don't worry, shopkeeper. This is another senior. He is one of us."

Keqing comforted her, but Xiang Yanwu was dumbfounded. There was another senior!

How did the city lord persuade these wild beasts, whether they were in the Nascent Soul stage, the Spiritualization stage, or even the Void Refinement stage? Could it be that this place is really full of transformed monsters, half-human, half-demon creatures as rumored?

Xiang Yanwu looked at Keqing with strange eyes, but felt that something was not quite like them.

Keqing didn't pay attention to Yan Wu's gaze. Instead, she nodded slightly and asked Senior Yun Xin.

"Excuse me, Senior Yun Xin. What is the specific situation of Qingcang City? Is there any trouble?"

Before entering the City Lord's Mansion, in order to avoid conflict, Keqing asked Senior Yun Xin to investigate the situation in Qingcang City, so that she could have an understanding of the place and would be more confident in case a conflict occurred.

Now that Senior Yun Xin is back, he should have completed most of the investigation.

"Well, there are indeed some problems. There is indeed something wrong with those people. There is a smell of decay on them." Yun Xin nodded, "Your guess may be correct. There is indeed a strange feeling in Qingcang City. It is very likely that they are evil cultivators."

"Evil cultivator!?"

"Evil cultivator?"

Xiang Yanwu and Yuehu were one surprised and the other confused?

How could an evil cultivator appear? Aren’t they just investigating the situation in Qingcang City?

Seeing this, Keqing began to explain step by step.

"In fact, when I encountered the pursuers from Qingcang City, I found something wrong. There was a strange aura on them. It was not the puppet from before, but a familiar aura." Keqing paused. "Sister Yuehu, do you still remember this thing?"

Keqing spread out her palms, and a black mist was floating in them.
