The whole world is cultivating qi, only I am cultivating the body

Guo Huailu was of course anxious. This group of wealthy businessmen had just been raised and were just fattened up. It was not yet time to harvest them. If these wealthy businessmen died, he might not be able to get all of their wealth into his hands. By then, the Third Prince would not be able to get enough funds to blame him, and even if he was the lord of Wolf City, he might not be able to escape punishment.

Although Guo Huailu is the city lord now, he has been tied to the Third Prince after he followed the Third Prince's advice to build the Colosseum in Wolf City. He has helped the Third Prince make a lot of money in Wolf City, and the Third Prince has a lot of leverage over him. If he really offends the Third Prince and makes those leverage public, then by that time, even if he is the descendant of a hero who founded the new country and even if his father is still alive, he will inevitably be punished and beheaded by the new emperor.

Unfortunately, Wolf City has been a military-controlled city since its establishment. His role as city lord is mostly symbolic. The one who truly manages all the formations in Wolf City is only Zhong Yu. At most, he can only control a part of the formations, including the formation near the city gate.

Guo Huailu kept putting his handprints into the barrier, and the barrier gradually began to shake, and even became much more transparent. However, the barrier was obviously transparent enough to see what was inside, and Guo Huailu's hands had already left afterimages, but the barrier still showed no sign of disappearing.

"Zhong Yu! Let those people out! They can't be killed! They can't be killed! Disperse the barrier!"

Guo Huailu's voice was heard by Zhong Yu through the barrier. Zhong Yu just raised his head and looked at him, then waved his hand, and the guards who were originally protecting him immediately rushed towards the hired monks.

The guards who could stand beside Zhong Yu were naturally elite. These people were the veterans who had walked down the battlefield with Zhong Yu. Countless monks had died at their hands. Rushing into those mercenary monks was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep. It could be said to be a one-sided massacre.

Seeing that Zhong Yu was indifferent, Guo Huailu had no choice but to send him a message: "Zhong Yu! You can kill those monks, but you must not kill those wealthy businessmen! They are all fat sheep raised by the Third Prince. It is not time to slaughter them now. You have to wait until later! At least squeeze out all their wealth!"

Listening to the voice transmission in his ear, he looked up at Guo Huailu in the sky again. Seeing the anxious expression on his face, Zhong Yu just smiled lightly: "Impossible! These people dare to attack the army of Wolf City, and everyone will die here!"

"You! Zhong Yu! Don't think I really can't break this barrier! Don't think I'm really afraid of you!"

"It doesn't matter. If you want to break this barrier, just do it."

Guo Huailu's face was very ugly. How could he dare to break the barrier? It was nothing when the barrier was used normally, but once the barrier was broken, the Central Imperial City would get the news immediately. By then, even the new emperor might be alarmed. If the new emperor knew that he had broken the barrier, the third prince would not need to provide any evidence or handle. He would be killed directly by the new emperor!

Guo Huailu's face was gloomy and uncertain, but he finally sighed and left the barrier. When he turned around, his brows suddenly frowned and blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Slowly flying to Mu Qiao's side, Guo Huailu took out a storage bag and a token from his arms, and threw them to Mu Qiao with some pain: "I have brought you what you wanted. Should I remove the seal of the seal on my body?"

Taking the storage bag and token thrown by Guo Huailu, Mu Qiao carefully checked the token and storage bag, and also carefully checked the items in the storage bag. Finally, she put the token and storage bag into her storage ring, took out the seal from her bosom, and pointed the bottom of the seal towards Guo Huailu: "Of course I won't cheat like City Lord Guo did before. I will definitely help you if I promise to help you."

The seal emitted a soft white light, and a huge suction force emanated from the bottom of the seal. The red ink on Guo Huailu's body was gradually peeled off. He only felt his body becoming more and more relaxed, until all the ink was sucked away from his body. He carefully felt the condition of his body.

"My cultivation level?"

"Didn't I tell City Lord Guo just now? The seal will slowly devour cultivation, but with City Lord Guo's strength and the natural treasures in his hands, the lost cultivation will be restored soon. Then I will leave first." Mu Qiao took the seal back into her arms, but just as she was about to leave, she seemed to remember something. She turned and looked at Guo Huailu, "Oh, City Lord Guo, don't forget to release those monsters that came out of the Colosseum. After all, it's part of our bet. If City Lord Guo catches them again, the seal won't be taken back easily next time."

"Don't worry, I don't have time to care about those monsters now!"

After saying this, Guo Huailu immediately flew towards the City Lord's Mansion. What he had to consider now was not the monsters. He had to contact the Third Prince as soon as possible and report to him what happened in Wolf City. As for how the Third Prince would deal with the matter, that was not something he had to worry about. He only had to worry about how the Third Prince would punish him.

After Guo Huailu left, Mu Qiao also disappeared from the sky.

Seeing Mu Qiao disappear, Zeng Wenyu suddenly exerted force with both hands. The window sill could not withstand his strength at all. The two pieces of wood were immediately crushed by him. Feeling the sawdust in his hands, Zeng Wenyu let out a long breath: "Huh... Senior Sister, don't you want to see me for the time being? Or is there something else that you haven't finished?"

Zeng Wenyu had just finished whispering when the door of his room was pushed open from the outside. He turned around and looked in the direction of the door, only to see Mu Zhi walking in holding a little white fox. The little white fox looked very familiar, and Zeng Wenyu recognized it as the celestial fox codenamed "White Fox" that he had seen in the Colosseum before.

"Sister Mu Zhi, when did you bring it out of the Colosseum?"

"I didn't bring it out of the Colosseum. Do you remember the spiritual energy I sent out when I left? My spiritual energy was responsible for guiding him on the road, and he followed the guidance of my spiritual energy to find me. Oh, this is a young man of my clan, his name is Fox Nine."

"Okay, but we should not be able to leave Wolf City in the next few days. If something like this happens in the city, those soldiers should at least check the people in the city."

"If he can't leave, then he can't leave. Anyway, I have suppressed Fox Nine's aura to that of an ordinary fox. Even if the soldiers in the city check him, they will just think he is my pet."
