I Have A City In An Alternate World
Chapter 4267: Ulterior motives (1)
The malicious instigations of the three castellans shocked the other four castellans.
At this moment, their hearts were really in a mess. They didn't know how to deal with this sudden incident.
He continued to deduce if the arrival of Lou Cheng's cultivators would cause a terrifying change.
Were they just passing by, or were they looking for an excuse to start a war? were they trying to control or subvert the demon City?
It was indeed necessary to be cautious when dealing with cultivators of Lou city, as any carelessness would cause danger and trouble.
However, it would be too hasty to start a decisive battle with the cultivators of loucheng city because of what happened today.
With the current strength of the demon City, it was like an egg hitting a stone if they wanted to fight with the cultivators of loucheng.
He knew that he would definitely lose, but he still wanted to start a war. He was simply stupid.
Even if they could win for a while, how could they face the Army of the loucheng world?
The four castellans subconsciously wanted to reject the proposal of the three castellans. It was too impulsive and risky.
"I know what everyone is thinking. The demon City alone can't win against the loucheng world, so we must find a helper.
According to the information I've received, there's a special person hidden in our city.
It was said that there was a huge organization behind him that was definitely not weaker than the loucheng world.
But now, he's been captured by cultivators of Lou Cheng and they're preparing to take him out of the demon City by force."
The third city Lord's eyes flickered slightly as he spoke. What was next was a gamble.
If he won the bet, it would be fine as it would allow the plan to be successfully completed. However, if he lost the bet, he would have to bear a heavy price.
No matter what the result was, he had no other choice.
Hearing this, the city Lords all had their own thoughts and looked at the third city Lord with subtle expressions.
"Tell me, who is that special person and what is the force behind him?"
The city Lord said faintly. He was usually very low-key. Unless it was an important matter, he would not easily participate.
"I haven't had much contact with him, and the information I know is limited, but I should be able to confirm that his background is indeed extraordinary."
The third city Lord's words were vague, but in fact, he was deliberately hiding it. After all, there were some things that were not easy to say.
What he was doing now was equivalent to betrayal. How could he hide such an important matter from the other city Lords?
If it wasn't for the urgency of the situation, the third city Lord would have to explain it to them.
"Cultivator Lou Cheng is unreasonable and wants to take him away. We can't just stand by and watch.
Otherwise, it won't be long before the cultivators in loucheng turn around and cut us with their butcher's knife!"
The words of the third city Lord were filled with hostility towards the cultivators of loucheng, insisting that the demon City would be destroyed.
He was trying to use this method to increase the sense of danger of the city Lords so that they would be able to accept his manipulation.
"Is there a possibility that the Lou Cheng cultivators" target is the special guest you mentioned?
Now that they've achieved their goal, they'll naturally leave the demon City and have nothing to do with each other?"
The one who spoke was The Second City Master, who was usually deep-minded and could be considered the actual manager of the demon City.
He was very dissatisfied with the fourth city Lord's actions and suspected that he actually had other intentions.
Otherwise, he would have to be the first to know when such a person entered the city and pay close attention to him in secret.
It would not be like now, where only the fourth city Lord knew. It was obvious that he was deliberately hiding it.
Now that something had happened, he couldn't wait to jump out and encourage everyone to come forward and stop it.
No matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was a conspiracy behind this.
Several city Lords had similar thoughts. This matter was really too sudden, causing them to lose their composure for a moment.
The actions of the third city Lord were even more suspicious.
They wouldn't make a decision easily, nor would they comply with the instigation of the third city Lord. Instead, they raised all kinds of doubts.
The third city Master was angry and annoyed. He could sense the suspicion of the other city Masters, but there was nothing he could do in his heart.
This had happened too suddenly, so he could only take the risk. He could not let poison demon fall into the hands of the cultivators in loucheng.
In fact, until now, the third city Lord was also confused. He didn't know why he had provoked the cultivators of Lou city.
However, on second thought, this was probably a game between the higher-ups, or perhaps the powerful existence behind them had already regarded the cultivators of loucheng as enemies.
If that was the case, he was too unlucky.
Although he was angry, he had no choice. Even if he had to pay a price, he had to stop the cultivators from Lou Cheng.
From the looks of the city Lords, he knew that they would not be easily fooled, so he could only rely on himself.
With this thought in mind, the third city Master looked at the commander of the cracked territory again, not hiding his anger at all.
"Too much!"
At this moment, the third city Lord was still the decision-maker of the demon City. His words and actions also represented the attitude of the demon City.
He let out a cold snort and glared at the commander fiercely, but he had already made up his mind.
The city Lords were not willing to cooperate, so he dragged everyone down with him. When that time came, he would have to do what he didn't want to do.
"I didn't expect cultivator Lou Cheng to be so overbearing. Not only did he break into other people's territory, but he also didn't give any explanation.
Even a man made of mud has his temper. Your Excellency has gone too far in bullying us. If you want to leave the demon City today, you have to ask the five city Lords if they agree!"
The three city Lords threatened in the name of the demon City, including the other city Lords.
"……"
The city Lords 'faces darkened. They didn't expect the third city Lord to be so shameless and do such a shameless thing.
When have you ever asked me about my attitude? you actually issued a warning on behalf of the demon City.
This bastard was clearly up to no good.
The city Lords looked at each other secretly, already having made a judgment.
They were more and more certain that the third city Lord was secretly plotting something behind their backs.
Regardless of whether this was a good or bad thing, or what kind of benefits they could get, just being enemies with the cultivators of Lou Cheng was enough for them to all vote against it.
They relied on the demon City to cultivate and earn a large amount of resources. Everything was smooth sailing.
They had expressed their attitude from the time of cooperation and would not participate in any forces or organizations. Naturally, it would save them a lot of trouble.
However, today's matter was equivalent to pulling them into the whirlpool. Once they fell into it, they would probably have no chance of escaping.
The collision between the two forces would devour countless living beings. Just thinking about it made one shiver.
Compared to that behemoth, he was just a small shrimp.
If they participated recklessly, they would be crushed into powder if they were not careful.
The more they thought about it, the angrier they became. They wanted to slap the third city Lord to death. This feeling of being forcibly represented simply made the city Lords vomit blood.
However, he couldn't act up on the spot at this time. Otherwise, he would be a joke to the cultivators in Lou Cheng.
Once it was spread, it would seriously affect the reputation of the demon City. A fragmented Demon City was definitely not worthy of being called a paradise for the evil.
Of course, the actions of the three city Masters were not completely unacceptable. At least, they could show a tough attitude and show that the demon City was not to be crushed at will.
Of course, they would control the scale and would definitely not fight to the death.
Knowing that the third city Lord had dug a hole, if he still obediently jumped in, that would be really stupid.
The team commander on the other side had a calm expression all along. Hearing the 3rd city Lord's demonstration of power, he only slowly nodded.
"Can I take this as a declaration of war from the demon City? you want to be enemies with the cultivators of loucheng?"
There wasn't much explanation, and there was no discussion of right or wrong. He just wanted a simple answer.
Such overbearing behavior made people feel that it was natural.
It was obvious that this commander disdained to engage in a war of words and was extremely straightforward in his actions.
Either you let me go, or we start a war.
The third city Master was overjoyed and was about to respond, trying to further intensify the conflict.
However, this time, it was not his turn to make the decision.
"Of course, peace is the most important thing. Please leave, Sir. We will not stop you.
The other party is stationed in the demon City, so he must be a cunning and evil person. The cultivators of loucheng captured and killed him, which can be considered as eliminating an evil for the people!"
