Supreme Lord of the Earth - C270
Meng Kang brought Tao Bai and Shi Liancheng to the front of the Qiu Family’s beef shop.
Returning to the same place once again, Meng Kang gritted his teeth and rushed into the small courtyard.
The courtyard was empty. No one was there.
Meng Kang was immediately a little disappointed. He thought that Luo Dongyang had passed the border and would very likely return to this place.
There were many things that could still be discussed after finding that fellow.
He didn’t expect that he was overthinking things when the building was empty.
“Lord Ley, quickly come over here!”
Shi Liancheng suddenly shouted.
Meng Kang walked over quickly after hearing the noise. He pointed to the stove in the kitchen and said: “The stove is not cold yet.
There was still the ashes of the stove on the stove and a bit of the bottom of the beef soup left in the pot.
Tao Bai took a deep breath and said, “Not bad, it’s the smell of beef! There’s still time to catch up! ”
Meng Kang smelled the familiar fragrance of the beef and frowned, a look of astonishment on his face.
What he was thinking was not that Luo Dongyang had not left yet, but rather, it was another problem!
Who would cook his beef broth for him?
Just based on how lazy Luo Dongyang was, he would definitely not cook for himself.
Moreover, the traces left behind in the kitchen were very clear. After Luo Dongyang entered the city, someone cooked a pot of beef broth for him.
He might have slipped away while he was blocking the demon army!
Meng Kang thought for a moment, then in a flash he rushed to the back of the courtyard.
With a slap, the large vat cracked open. Black soil flowed out of the vat, and red insects could be seen twisting within the soil.
Meng Kang immediately understood, so that was how it was!
Back then, Luo Dongyang must have used some kind of camouflage method to falsely kill Xunniang in front of him. After that, he made the Xunniang hide in the Liuhuo City and dug a huge pit for him to hide in!
“Go!” Let’s go back to camp! I have something to discuss with everyone! ”
Without further ado, Meng Kang called out to them and quickly rushed back to the camp.
At the moment, there were 24,000 people in the Liuhuo City, most of them gathered near the city square. There was another small portion of people like Meng Kang and the rest who went back to their houses in order to retrieve their treasures and valuables.
“Everyone, I am Lei Qu. Please calm down, I have something to say!”
Meng Kang jumped onto the stage, channeled his energy, and said.
Once he said that, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked towards Lord Ley.
“I just checked and found that the source of the disease hasn’t disappeared. Corpses tide could break out at any time!”
When Meng Kang said this, the entire plaza immediately became gloomy and gloomy. The citizens of the Liuhuo City, whether they were human or demon, all felt that their group of people had lived too arduously!
“It looks like Liuhuo City cannot stay for long, we need to discuss an idea, preserving our lives is more important!”
An old human merchant with quite a bit of status said in a loud voice.
“The demon army will attack at any time! The Wasteland is so big, where can we run to? ”
A demon clan merchant helplessly shouted.
Shi Liancheng glanced at Lord Ley, and his eyes seemed to be eager to give it a try.
Meng Kang nodded slightly, indicating for him to speak.
Shi Liancheng took a step forward, and said calmly: “The only thing to do now, is to cultivate the road, and pass by! I, Shi Liancheng, am willing to lead the troops and stay in Liuhuo City. I will think of a way to delay demon army and cover him as she takes everyone back to the human race! ”
Shi Liancheng paused for a moment, then continued, “The Great Halberd Sect has two hundred thousand Chen soldiers at the southeastern border, please guarantee our safety.”
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Tao Bai frowned, and before he could say anything, the entire plaza was already filled with the sounds of the Spirit Demon race members bickering.
“We are not going to the human territory! “If you’re going to be an ox or a horse for others, you might as well seek happiness in the Wasteland!”
“That’s right!” How could human armies be good things! If this group of people were to go, it would be a good chance for them to earn military merits. No, no! ”
The rest of the Spirit Demon beings were unhappy, even some human merchants shook their heads in disagreement, “We don’t like to follow those shabby rules of traveling all the way to Liuhuo City to settle down, and now we have to return to the Great Halberd Sect. We might as well stay with the Spirit Demon beings, we can’t live freely, what do we want our lives for!”
Those who spoke these words were mostly those who had offended the nobles in the Great Halberd Court, or those who had committed grave crimes in their hands. It was not that they did not wish to return, but that there was no way to survive if they did!
Shi Liancheng never thought that there would be so many people who would oppose returning to the Great Halberd Sect, but when he thought about the various exorbitant taxes and headaches, he felt that it was really not easy to do business!
Seeing the people below roaring and arguing nonstop, a thought flashed through Meng Kang’s mind, but he did not immediately make a sound.
Everyone had their own opinions and discussed for an incense stick of time. Everyone was dizzy from the argument, but no one could persuade anyone, because they all had different positions, they could not unite again, unless the same Liuhuo City from back then appeared.
However, everyone knew that the Liuhuo City’s grand occasion would never come back. Even if there were no corpse tide, just looking at the postures of the Goblin Tribe cavalry, everyone knew that they definitely did not want to come out for a lap.
As the buffer zone between humans and demons, the Liuhuo City had completed its historical mission.
He believed that in the near future, the Liuhuo City would become a place full of competition for war.
In the midst of the clamor, a big sized Spirit Demon shouted angrily, “No matter what, it’s still a fart! Anyway, this old one’s life was taken back by the Lord Ley! This father recognizes him! He would do whatever he said! Even if I have to die, I will accept it! ”
After saying this, his companion who was arguing with the huge monster stopped talking, because he couldn’t find any words to refute.
“Yes!” I am too lazy to think too much into it. In any case, if I don’t live, I die. For him to be able to bring us here, we must listen to him! ”
Another tall and sturdy demon clan soldier roared.
“Tsk tsk!” Listen to Lord Ley! He must have a way! ”
“Hiss, hiss!” That’s right, we are willing to listen to the Lord Ley! ”
In that moment, many Spirit Demon beings all expressed that they were willing to listen to Lord Ley Lei Qu’s arrangements, regardless of victory or defeat, everyone accepted it!
The human race was slightly calmer, but they couldn’t hold on for too long, because in such a predicament, there was actually no place for the Liuhuo City and the rest in this world.
If they divided it into pieces, perhaps they would have a chance to return to their own clans. But if they did that, other than a few powerful martial artists, the majority of the twenty thousand or so people would die in the wilderness.
At this time, a human elderly man came out of the crowd, walked in front of Meng Kang, and greeted him with a bow. Then, with a face full of worry, he said, “Lord Ley! This old one is the representative of the Hu Merchant House, without hiding the truth, our Hu Family has inherited the art of forging from our family for hundreds of years, and have already stayed in the Liuhuo City for over thirty years. Currently, there are three hundred and sixty-two survivors, including fourteen from master craftsman, who are skilled in smithing, and one hundred and forty-four.
When the old man said this, two other white haired elders from the human side walked out simultaneously. The two of them looked at each other and laughed, then walked in front of Meng Kang.
“Gongsun greets Lord Ley!”
“The remnants of the Yue Clan greet the Lord Ley!”
The two elders clasped their fists.
When Meng Kang heard about these two surnames, he couldn’t help but be moved.
The Gongsun was a sword forging family, and in the past there was a Gongsun who used to dance with the swords, saying that the Gongsun family had two peerless titles, one was the beautiful lady of the Gongsun, the other one was the famous dancer, and the second was the master of sword forging, who did not want to be the second family.
In the demon battlefield six hundred years ago, the Gongsun had forged seven famous swords. Who knew how many demon generals had drunk their fill of blood?
Who would have known that after the demons retreated, the human emperor who desired to unify the world would order the Gongsun to open a furnace and use the remnants of the seven swords to reform the eighth sword, which was also known as the King’s Sword.
In the process of retrieving the seven famous swords, three of the demon clan’s Grand Swordmasters were killed by human experts.
Those who were knowledgeable in the world would hold hands one after another, while the Gongsun publicly defied orders, refusing to forge the eighth sword for the imperial family. They were beheaded for more than three hundred times, and as their families fell, they never expected that their descendants would actually come to the Liuhuo City.
As for the remnants of the Yue clan, although there weren’t many records in the history books, they were all extremely famous mutated races.
Their bloodline was very special, and the talent of the descendants of the Yue Clan to train in martial arts was a complete mess. However, their mental strength was naturally stronger than that of ordinary people, and it was said that the six year old child of the Yue Clan, in terms of the depth and depth of their mental strength, was comparable to a Divine Secret Realm expert. This was a heaven-defying race.
The debate on whether or not the Yue clan was a human being never stopped, from the prosperity to the decline of the clan.
During their most glorious period, a member of the Yue Clan had once been the principal of the Star Observation College and became one of the greatest heroes of the human race.
It was a dark and windy night. A bloody mutiny across the city wiped out the sparsely populated Yue Residence.
After three hundred years of silent recovery, the remaining Yue Clan clansmen found a reason to root in the Liuhuo City, a place they did not care about, and became a member of the Liuhuo City.
If their clan leader hadn’t stood up for them today, perhaps no one would ever know that there was still a Yue clan member in the Liuhuo City.
Seeing that Lord Ley did not make a sound, and seemed to be deep in thought.
Gongsun and the two Yue Clan Patriarchs were stunned. They did not expect that this Lord Lei Qu had such vast knowledge. Just by hearing the two names, he already revealed such an expression.
