Chapter 1008 City Lord?
Upon seeing this, Yan Li threw a bag of gold coins in front of the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper saw the gold coins, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
"Miss, this is your room key." The shopkeeper handed the key to Yan Li and the others respectfully.
"Prepare a table of food for us." Yan Li took the key and said.
Then they sat down at a table.
After Yan Li sat down, he looked towards the entrance of the inn and saw a figure flash by.
This figure has been following them since they entered Tianbi City.
However, Yan Li ignored him and wanted to see what he wanted to do calmly.
After dinner, Yan Li and the others prepared to take a walk around Tianbi City.
After they walked out of the inn, they found that the figure followed them again.
So Yan Li and the others simply wanted to ask him directly what he wanted to do.
But when Yan Li and the others walked towards that figure, he ran slowly in one direction.
Yan Li and the others followed until the figure stopped in a dilapidated temple.
Only when Yan Li and the others got closer did they realize that the figure was in tattered clothes and had tangled hair, but the eyes on his muddy face looked very shrewd.
"Why have you been following us?" Yan Li looked at him.
"If I guess correctly, you are from Chucheng, right?" the man said.
Yan Li looked at him in surprise when she heard that.
How did he guess that he and others were so ordinary now?
After all, there are so many people coming and going in Tianbi City, and we would be very inconspicuous among the crowd.
"You don't have to be surprised. I am the lord of this city, Ouyang Shao. This city was not originally called Tianbi City, but Chunyang City." Ouyang Shao explained.
"Chunyang City?" A hint of doubt flashed across Yan Li's eyes.
After all, they didn't go looking for anything specifically when they came to Tianbi City this time. They just asked a few people and arrived.
"Yes, but it was called Chunyang City 20 years ago. At that time, Chunyang City was still unknown, but the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. Later, people from the Tianbi Sect came and occupied Chunyang City, and renamed it Tianbi City.
After twenty years, they made Tianbi City famous, and only recently, they became restless again and wanted to occupy more cities." Ouyang Shao continued.
"So, this Tianbi City is not their base?" Yan Li was very shocked when he heard it.
"No, their lair is in Tianbi Sect. Now, the people managing Tianbi City are just a few elders of Tianbi Sect." Ouyang Shao nodded.
"Why are you telling us this?" Yan Li looked at Ouyang Shao suspiciously.
"It's simply a fantasy for me to take revenge on my own. I tell you this for my own selfish reasons." Ouyang Shao was very frank.
"Then... do you know where this Tianbi Sect is?" Yan Li looked at him.
"This is the map of the Tianbi Sect that I finally got all these years." Ouyang Shao handed a map to Yan Li.
"City Lord Ouyang, do you want to cooperate with us?" Yan Li looked at Ouyang Shao after taking the map.
"Cooperation? But now I am alone, without any support from any force, and not even a single person available." Ouyang Shao described his situation.
From this, we can imagine how brutal the battle was when those people from the Tianbi Sect captured the city.
"You are enough." Yan Li smiled when he heard that.
"Since the lady doesn't mind, I am willing to cooperate with you." Ouyang Shao's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"This is a disguise pill. Take it first, and then come back to the inn with us to wash up." Yan Li said and handed him a disguise pill.
"I can wash up here, just wait for me." After saying that, Ouyang Shao walked towards a room next to the ruined temple.
"It seems that he looks like this to avoid being recognized." Gu Shu sighed when seeing this.
"It seems so." After Yan Li and the others said this, they waited in the dilapidated temple for Ouyang Shao to come out.
After a long time, a handsome middle-aged man in simple clothes appeared in front of Yan Li and the others.
"What are you doing?" Yan Li asked.
She was not sure whether this was Ouyang Shao's appearance before or after his disguise.
"This is my true appearance." Ouyang Shao said and swallowed the disguise pill.
Soon, he changed from a handsome middle-aged man to an ugly uncle.
Yan Li and the others found that Ouyang Shao now looked in harmony with them.
After Ouyang Shaogang finished his disguise, the entire dilapidated temple was surrounded.
Upon seeing this, Yan Li directly put everyone including Ouyang Shao into the ring space.
Ouyang Shao was very surprised to see Yan Li expose the life space in front of him.
So he took the initiative to swear that he would never betray Yan Li and would never expose the secret of the storage space.
Yan Li smiled when she saw this.
Self-aware people like Ouyang Shao are always very reliable.
outside space.
When the third elder of Tianbi City and Yi Heng led their men in, the dilapidated temple was already empty.
"Are you sure you saw that group of people following Ouyang Shao into here?" The third elder looked at the disciples from Tianbi City around him with a cold tone.
"Third Elder, I am absolutely sure, and I have been guarding outside. They definitely have not left." The disciple's eyes were full of certainty.
"So, they are still in this dilapidated temple. Find them for me." The third elder of Tianbi City gave the order.
in space.
"It seems that you have been exposed a long time ago." Yan Li looked at Ouyang Shao, whose face was ashen.
"Since they know that I am not dead and also know where I am hiding, why do they still keep me here?" Ouyang Shao looked puzzled.
"In this case, either they have a bad taste and like to play the cat-and-mouse game, or they have other intentions towards you," Yan Li said.
"Any other intentions?" Ouyang Shao fell into deep thought after hearing this.
"Are they after that secret realm?" Ouyang Shao suddenly exclaimed.
"Secret realm?" Yan Li and others looked at him.
"The reason why our Chunyang City is called Chunyang City is because it has a secret realm. Every time the secret realm is opened, the whole city will be shrouded in soft spring light, so it is named Chunyang City." Ouyang Shao explained.
"Then the secret realm has not been opened in the past twenty years?" Yan Li was very puzzled.
"The secret realm opens once every ten years. It will definitely open when the time comes. But without the magic formula left by the generations of city lords of Chunyang City, there is no way to find the entrance to the secret realm." Ouyang Shao replied.
"It seems that they kept you just for that secret realm." Yan Li said.
outside space.
The three elders of Tianbi City searched the ruined temple inside and out, but still couldn't find Ouyang Shao, so they became a little angry.
"Is there some hidden secret passage in this dilapidated temple?" Yi Heng said and looked around.
"Search again carefully." Upon hearing this, the third elder of Tianbi City gave the order again.
