Free Web NovelChapter 1652: Chapter 1654: Something Big
The words of the City Lord of Hengqin City were spoken, and everyone was vigilantly staring at Lu Xiaobu.
Lu Xiaobu sneered contemptuously, "Although I was too lazy to explain to you all initially, but since the topic has come up, let’s have a look."
Then, he took out the prepared video on his phone.
Here, all are cultivators, so there was no problem seeing clearly. Lu Xiaobu played the video, and everyone could see it clearly!
After watching.
Everyone’s faces turned ashen, their eyes fiercely staring at the already deceased Ji Chenghong!
"So it’s him!"
"The culprit is him! He instigated the war! He even sacrificed his son?!"
"This person is ruthless! Dead well! Dead spectacularly!"
"Bah!"
"Trash, such high cultivation yet still trash!"
"..."
Everyone was eager to rush up and whip the corpse!
How many died today!
Turns out it was all instigated by this guy!
Previously, they thought Ji Chenghong’s death was a bit regretful, now it seems he deserved it!
The City Lord of Hengqin City staggered, his eyes fixedly staring at the cold Ji Chenghong!
So that’s how it is!
So that’s how it is!
He never thought it would be like this, his Great General of Hengqin City, unexpectedly precipitated a war between the two cities!
Moreover, it was maliciously instigated!
Shameful! Hateful!
As for the principal of Hengqin Academy, anger made him want to tear Ji Chenghong apart!
He directly rushed up and punched Ji Chenghong’s corpse, "It’s you! It’s you! You killed my Hengqin Academy’s elder of passing skills! Why did you die?! Why!? Come back alive! I want you to pay for those lives! Pay!"
The hysterical roar made everyone sigh.
The principal’s dedicated attitude towards education was well known.
"Do you still want to say anything now?!" Lu Xiaobu looked at the City Lord of Hengqin City.
The City Lord then remembered, he had previously accused Lu Xiaobu of starting all this.
Now, it turned out to be his Hengqin City’s person, and also a high-ranking general!
Instantly, he felt like he was slapped hard in the face!
It burned!
So he immediately said, "When Ji Chenghong died, he said you were from the Demon Realm..."
His words were interrupted by the principal of Hengqin Academy, "How can the words of such a beast be trusted?!"
"Exactly! You actually believe Ji Chenghong’s words?! Have your years as City Lord turned you into a dog brain?! It must be Ji Chenghong felt he was dying, so he slandered!"
"Exactly! Such words can’t be trusted!"
"He must have deliberately said so to retaliate against Lu Xiaobu!"
"We all know the Demon Realm has been sealed for over four hundred years! It’s definitely nonsense!"
"..."
Listening to everyone, the face of the City Lord of Hengqin City felt like it was slapped again.
"Then this matter, today... ends here?"
The City Lord of Hengqin City spoke with some guilt.
Ends here?
The City Lord and Great General of Yuchi City are dead, they only lost a general, and a culprit at that.
Now it ends vaguely, honestly, he felt it was a bit excessive!
But then again, if it doesn’t end, what can be done?!
Does he have to apologize?!
Or even say he should pay with his life?!
He definitely won’t agree!
This is really too troublesome!
Hopefully, the people of Yuchi City are fools, just end it confusedly!
However, it seems he was overthinking!
The people of Yuchi City are not fools!
"Why?!"
"Exactly! Why?! If you have the power, continue!"
"Our City Lord and Great General are dead, you lost just one culprit, why should it end?!"
"This isn’t over!"
"Exactly! This isn’t over!"
"..."
End?
Why should it end?!
The war’s culprit is your person, and you ambushed our City Lord first, and more cultivators, their family and friends are dead, now it just ends?!
Talk nonsense?!
Are they being fooled as idiots here!
Either continue fighting, until one side is dead!
They have anger, Hengqin City isn’t any less temperamental!
"Damn! As if none of ours died!"
"Exactly! Our people died too!"
"Fight if you want, scared of you?!
"Come! Fight to the last breath!"
"..."
Both sides cursing, roaring, but no real action taken!
They actually don’t want to continue fighting, but ending vaguely, they won’t agree either!
Both sides cursed with great satisfaction!
About ten minutes passed!
Finally!
A voice emerged, "How about we let Mr. Lu Xiaobu, Mr. Lu judge this matter? Mr. Lu is both a participant and a third-party, what do you all think?"
It was Mu Qing speaking, as she spoke, a jade pendant in her arms flashed.
The jade pendant was for communicating with Lu Xiaobu.
Evidently, the words just now weren’t her own idea.
Upon hearing this, everyone paused.
Indeed! These words were well said!
For both sides to resolve, it’s clearly not feasible unless truly fighting until one’s dead.
Yet now there’s a third party, moreover a witness of events, having this person mediate is certainly best!
Of course, inviting someone to mediate requires paying a fee.
Everyone immediately looked at Lu Xiaobu.
"Lord Lu, please mediate!"
"Yes, Mr. Lu, we trust you now!"
"Mr. Lu, have a look, what should be done! If you say fight to the death, then we’ll continue!"
"Please let Mr. Lu judge, we naturally have some reward to offer!"
"Please, Mr. Lu, uphold justice!"
"..." freёwebnoѵel.com
All calling for Mr. Lu Xiaobu to help mediate.
Actually, it’s not about truly mediating justice, just being a witness, a mediator, so during negotiations both sides can have some leeway rather than immediate physical conflict!
"Alright, then I humbly accept."
This idea was originally his, he certainly wouldn’t refuse.
Only Mu Qing stared intently at Lu Xiaobu, instinctively feeling Lu Xiaobu wasn’t just planning to be a witness, seeking friendship between the two cities, he definitely had other motives!
But as both cities still had Nascent Soul stage cultivators, what exactly does he intend to do?!
Her heart started pounding uncontrollably; a woman’s intuition told her something major was going to happen today! Something very, very major!
