There's No Way My Dad Is A Legendary Cultivator-Chapter 168 - The Tragic State of the Eastern District

The man became curious instead.

“The mayor has already ordered the city to be on lockdown. What’s the use of discussing?”

Jiang Ping replied.

“I have to try.”

The man started to feel that Jiang Ping was more and more interesting.

He told Jiang Ping that he would lead the way.

On the way, the man told Jiang Ping that his name was Lu Yuxiang.

He was the sect master of the Dragon Spring Sect in Yellow Clouds City.

Jiang Ping was not surprised.

Because of the aura that Lu Yuxiang exuded.

Jiang Ping had long known that this person must have a great background.

Seeing Jiang Ping’s calm reaction, Lu Yuxiang confirmed his guess.

A person who dared to go to the mayor’s mansion at this juncture, even if he was not the head of a large sect.

He was still a cultivator with decent cultivation.

Lu Yuxiang brought Jiang Ping to the gate of the mayor’s mansion and said with a smile.

“This is the mayor’s mansion. I still have important matters to attend to, so it’s not convenient for me to send you in.”

Jiang Ping nodded and cupped his fists to express his thanks.

Lu Yuxiang greeted the guards of the mayor’s mansion.

He told Jiang Ping to go directly into the hall and wait.

Jiang Ping was brought into the hall by the guards.

However, Lu Yuxiang did not leave at this time. Instead, he was at the gate of the mayor’s mansion and used his spiritual energy to secretly investigate.

Before Jiang Ping stepped into the hall, he removed the spell that concealed his cultivation.

After all, he was here to talk. No matter what, he had to make people look him in the eye in order to have the right to speak.

That was why Jiang Ping revealed his cultivation as soon as he came in so that he would not be sent back before he even met the mayor.

Lu Yuxiang noticed the cultivation that Jiang Ping had released when he entered the hall.

He was secretly delighted.

Only then did he walk towards the Dragon Spring Sect with satisfaction. Jiang Ping waited in the hall. The guards of the mayor’s mansion saw that Jiang Ping was a big shot in the earth immortal realm.

So they served him nicely.

The tea leaves they used were the ones that their mayor usually used to entertain distinguished guests.

Jiang Ping lifted the lid of the teacup and used the lid to scrape away the tea dust.

He took a sip.

Then he stopped drinking.

After all, Jiang Ping didn’t usually drink tea, so he couldn’t taste the quality of the tea leaves. He drank a sip because he didn’t want the guards to gossip about him.

Saying that he was arrogant. Soon, the mayor of the mayor’s mansion, Lu Zhiheng, walked in from the hall.

Lu Zhiheng did not sit at the main seat.

Instead, he sat on the chair to the right of Jiang Ping

“Sir, I heard that you have something to discuss with me?”

Before he entered the door, Lu Zhiheng had already sensed Jiang Ping’s cultivation.

They were both in the earth immortal realm, but he was in the middle stage, which was a small realm higher than Jiang Ping.

However, he could not be rude to a guest who came from afar.

Lu Zhiheng asked Jiang Ping respectfully. Jiang Ping first smiled and cupped his fists at Lu Zhiheng.

Then, he said.

“There is indeed something to discuss.”

“Mayor, I’m here to talk about the city’s lockdown.”

Lu Zhiheng was a little vigilant.

At the moment, locking down the city was an extremely sensitive matter.

The person in front of him could not be a hothead, right.

Moreover, Jiang Ping was in the earth immortal realm.

According to Lu Yuxiang, the person who attacked was in the earth immortal realm.

Therefore, the smile on Lu Zhiheng’s originally smiling face suddenly disappeared.

Jiang Ping continued to speak.

“My family and I just arrived in the city yesterday. We wanted to leave today and continue on our journey.”

“But I didn’t expect that the whole city was talking about the matter of the city gate being closed.”

“However, we’re in a hurry now, and we don’t dare to barge through the city gate directly. I’m afraid we’ll offend the mayor.”

“Therefore, my visit today is to ask if the city gate can open for us and let us leave.”

The mayor, Lu Zhiheng, forced a smile on his face.

“Brother Jiang, I can’t decide on this matter.”

“This is the result of discussion among the major forces in the city.”

“Seeing that you’re also a practical person, I’ll tell you the truth.”

“The main reason for locking down the city this time is because of the attack on the eastern district. According to the relevant clues, the person who attacked was at least at the earth immortal realm…”

Lu Zhiheng did not need to say anything else.

Jiang Ping had already understood the meaning behind Lu Zhiheng’s words.

The person who attacked was in the earth immortal realm, and he was also in the earth immortal realm, so he was also included as a suspect.

Therefore, it was not convenient for Lu Zhiheng to show mercy.

Jiang Ping spoke again.

“We just entered the city yesterday.”

“Mayor, if you don’t believe me, you can ask the guards guarding the city gate.”

However, Lu Zhiheng did not feel anything when he heard this explanation.

He rejected Jiang Ping.

“Brother Jiang, I just told you that the eastern district was attacked.”

“Even if you say that you’ve never been to Yellow Clouds City, it still doesn’t make sense. After all, the murderer hasn’t been caught yet. You suddenly appeared and told me that you want to leave the city.”

“Even if I agree, the representatives of the other forces also have to agree with me.”

“When that time comes, how can I continue to be the mayor?”

Lu Zhiheng had lost his patience. As he spoke, he stopped suppressing his cultivation at the middle stage of the earth immortal realm.

He wanted Jiang Ping to back off.

After Jiang Ping understood, he stood up and bowed to Lu Zhiheng again.

“Since it’s difficult, I won’t bother you anymore.” 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄ｏ𝐦

After saying that, he turned to leave.

Lu Zhiheng also stood up and smiled.

After Jiang Ping walked out of the mansion, Lu Zhiheng beckoned for his guards.

“Send a few people to keep an eye on him. I want you to report his every move in the city.”

The guard knelt on one knee and was about to take action after receiving the order.

Then, Lu Zhiheng stopped him.

“Remember to bring an artifact that can shield your aura. That person is in the earth immortal realm. It’s best to be careful.” f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

After saying that, he waved his hand to dismiss the guard.

After Jiang Ping left the mayor’s mansion, he did not return to the inn directly.

Qiu Chi and Lei Jingyun were gathering intelligence at this time, so he had nothing to do when he returned.

Therefore, Jiang Ping planned to take a walk in the eastern district.

He wanted to see how bad the situation was in the attacked eastern district, which made the entire city care so much.

Jiang Ping still asked for directions to the eastern district.

Since the day of the attack, the eastern district had been sealed off, and no one was allowed to enter or leave.

When he was about to arrive, a guard had already stood out to stop Jiang Ping from continuing forward.

Jiang Ping had no choice but to change direction.

However, Jiang Ping did not leave. Instead, he used some tricks to conceal himself for a short period of time and sneaked in when the guards were not paying attention.

After Jiang Ping disappeared from where he was, a few spies who had followed Jiang Ping out of the mayor’s mansion hurriedly rushed

out.

Those spies guessed that Jiang Ping must have sneaked into the eastern district.

Thus, they discussed and a group of people followed, while another group stood in place and waited for orders.

Standing in front of the pile of ruins.

Jiang Ping fell silent.

It wasn’t because of the power that the person who ambushed them had caused to the eastern district.

It was because Jiang Ping saw the collapsed buildings and charred roads that were beyond recognition.

Bodies were lying on the ground.
