"It's their fault that they always relied on the Fu family's wealth, and our City Lord's Mansion needed their financial support to force my eldest brother to get married." Jiang Yu said unhappily.

"It's strange, why do all the young ladies from the Fu family like Jiang Yuan, but no one likes you?" Nangong Xi was very curious.

"Of course they look down on me. I am the number one playboy in Jiangcheng." Jiang Yu's face was full of pride.

Nangong Xi: ...

Is this something to be proud of?

"My eldest brother is the number one young master in Jiangcheng. It's normal for them to like him." Jiang Yu added.

"Then your parents are quite powerful. They gave birth to a top playboy and a top young master." An Ming on the side complained.

Nangong Xi found that the soul-seeking needle in the space reacted, so she took it out.

"Xixi, what is this?" Jiang Yu looked at the spirit-seeking needle in Nangong Xi's hand with curiosity.

"Actually, we came to Liangcheng to look for something." Nangong Xi replied.

"We'll help you." Jiang Yu said without hesitation.

"Okay." Nangong Xi nodded.

Nangong Xi led everyone towards the direction pointed by the spirit-seeking needle.

They finally stopped in front of a tower that rose into the sky.

"Demon Concubine, is she inside the tower?" Anming asked.

"Not bad." Nangong Xi nodded.

"Xixi, this is the ancestral tower of Liangcheng. It is also the resting place of the successive city lords of Liangcheng. It is very difficult to get in." Jiang Yuan said.

Nangong Xi: ...

So, if I tear down this tower, what's the difference between that and digging up someone's ancestral grave?

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Just as Nangong Xi was struggling, a middle-aged man walked over.

"We heard that this is the resting place of the Lord of Liangcheng, so we came here specially to pay our respects." Jiang Yuan was the first to react and replied.

"I didn't expect that the two young masters from Jiangcheng would come to my Liangcheng to pay homage to the ancestral pagoda." The middle-aged man had something to say.

"City Lord Mo, you are joking." Jiang Yuan revealed the other party's identity.

Upon hearing this, Nangong Xi glanced at City Lord Mo.

"If you have finished your admiration, please leave immediately." City Lord Mo looked at Nangong Xi. He always felt that the girl in front of him was not very old, but she gave him a very dangerous feeling.

"City Lord Mo, I can cure the poison in your body, but I have conditions." Nangong Xi looked at City Lord Mo and said.

This City Lord Mo probably came to the ancestral tower to seek a way to detoxify.

"Can you solve it?" City Lord Mo was stunned when he heard that.

No one knew that she was poisoned except herself and a few elders, but she could see it at a glance.

"Yes, I can solve it." Nangong Xi nodded.

"This is not a good place to have a conversation. Why don't you please move to the City Lord's Mansion?" City Lord Mo looked at Nangong Xi.

"Okay." Nangong Xi nodded.

She was also very speechless. The Destroyer really knew how to choose the location of his base, and it was always in such an important place.

Nangong Xi and the others followed City Lord Mo towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Jiang Yuan and the other man followed without saying anything.

Everyone came to the City Lord's Mansion, and City Lord Mo took them to the meeting hall.

"Girl, do you know what kind of poison I was poisoned by?" City Lord Mo looked at Nangong Xi.

"Beauty is a disaster." Nangong Xi said the name of the poison.

"The girl is indeed amazing, but I don't know what her qualifications are?" City Lord Mo looked at Nangong Xi.

"My conditions are quite scary..." Nangong Xi didn't know how City Lord Mo would react if he told him that he wanted to dig up someone's ancestral grave.

"Girl, tell me." City Lord Mo knew that Nangong Xi's conditions must be not simple.

"There is something I want under your ancestral tower, so I'm going to open it." Nangong Xi said while observing City Lord Mo's reaction.

"Miss, are you talking about the thing suppressed under the ancestral tower?" City Lord Mo was full of astonishment.

After all, the secret that successive city lords used their own souls to suppress the thing under the ancestral tower is only known to the successive city lords.

This is also the reason why the successive city lords of Liangcheng never lived beyond 200 years old.

Because the ancestral tower needs new and powerful souls to continue to join in order to suppress it.

"You know?" Nangong Xi didn't expect that City Lord Mo actually knew.

"I know. It was that thing that summoned me today. It told me that as long as I found a hundred people with strong spiritual power for it to absorb, it would help me detoxify." The city lord said honestly.

"You agreed?" Nangong Xi looked at him.

"How could I agree to this? In order to suppress it, countless city lords have been sacrificed. I can't let the efforts of successive city lords go to waste for my own selfish interests." City Lord Mo shook his head.

"City Lord Mo, you are a good city lord." Jiang Yuan sighed.

"Before I met you, I had already made up my mind. I'll die if I want to. At worst, I can join the army of successive city lords to suppress that thing. However, if there is a glimmer of hope now, I also want to seize it." After saying this, City Lord Mo looked at Nangong Xi.

"I came here just to destroy that thing." Nangong Xi replied.

"Girl, are you sure?" City Lord Mo looked at Nangong Xi.

"One hundred percent." Nangong Xi's eyes were full of confidence.

"Okay, I'll call the elders over. If the girl can really destroy that thing, the souls of our successive city lords will also be freed." After City Lord Mo finished speaking, he sent someone to invite the elders.

"Lord Mo believes me?" Nangong Xi was a little surprised.

This City Lord Mo did not even suspect me.

"Miss, you don't know that the thing originally wanted to control me by force, but when you approached, it screamed and ran away so quickly. I think it was afraid." City Lord Mo explained the reason.

"So that's how it is." Nangong Xi understood. It seemed that the thing had sensed his breath.

Soon, all the elders of Liangcheng were invited over.

"City Lord, what's the matter that requires us to come here?" asked the Great Elder.

City Lord Mo told them what happened.

Upon hearing the truth about the existence of the ancestral tower, the elders' eyes were red.

It turns out that successive city lords have made such great sacrifices for Liangcheng, but they were completely unaware of it.

"City Lord, since the ancestral tower is used to suppress that thing, if this girl cannot deal with it after it is opened, won't our Liang City be in danger?" The Great Elder was very worried.

"In order to completely resolve the crisis in our Liang City, how about we take a gamble?" City Lord Mo said.

"Besides, the fact that it was able to forcibly summon me over today proves that the ancestral tower can no longer control it." Seeing that the elders did not speak, City Lord Mo continued.

"City Lord, we agree to take a gamble." The elders spoke immediately upon hearing this.

"Don't worry, I came to Liangcheng just to destroy that thing." Nangong Xi looked at them and said.

“But if we want to overturn the ancestral tower, we must give an explanation to the people.” said the second elder.
