Chapter 167 Li Jiu is up to no good!

Li Jiu picked up his sword belt and walked quickly across the street. He walked in front of the city lord's palace in a few turns.

There are usually no outsiders approaching here. The two guards of the Feather Clan were chatting with their chests crossed, marveling at the vision in the sky just now: "By the way, what happened just now? Was it really a breakthrough in the Tongxuan Realm?"

"Who knows? I was so frightened that I felt like my ancestors were recruiting me to go home. It was really strange. Why did I have this inexplicable feeling?"

"Damn, don't scare me, what ancestor? How can we remember who our ancestor is!"

Seeing that his companion's face turned pale, the joking guard laughed loudly: "Look, what scares you, even if there are really ancestors, we can't see them. Huh?"

Suddenly, the guard's expression paused, and both of them looked at Li Jiu who was walking quickly. He straightened his back, looked straight, raised his brows, and said in a cold voice: "City Lord's Mansion, please stay away!"

Although they usually go to Baizu Red House to relax and recognize some wealthy people in the city, Li Jiu hardly goes out and has never seen them.

For a while, I had no choice but to stop the intruder and follow the rules.

Furthermore, it's not like Li Jiu is wearing a black robe and a wooden mask. There have always been many people dressed like that. In the past, when the Diniu tribe was still there, there were some humans who concealed their identities and wandered around the city.

Thinking of this, the two of them made a decision in their hearts. The guy in front of them might be a stranger who accidentally arrived in front of the city lord's mansion, so they just had to drive him away.

Regarding the attitude of the two people, Li Jiu also paused in front of the steps and frowned deeply.

"Yes, but why did he come to the City Lord's Mansion pretending to be Grandmaster Li?"

His reputation is indeed not small. The tribesmen who come to Baizu Valley City should have heard of his name more or less, but they don't even know me when they don't go out!
Now we have to go to the city lord's palace to ask for help, and we are pressed for time. But if we forcefully break in, the nature will change. Don't even think about asking for help.

The two guards looked at each other with strange thoughts in their minds, and their expressions of surprise and suspicion contrasted with each other, as if they were saying: "He said he is Li Jiu?"

Li Jiu's fingers trembled slightly, and he froze in place, silent.

Such a big boss, even the city lord must treat him with courtesy. How could he come in such a hasty and shabby way?

At that moment, the look of surprise in the eyes of the two people solidified into ice, and the cold air turned into arrows. Their eyes turned to Li Jiu like blades, and the aura of the Nine Meridians Realm was about to come out: "You are not qualified to pretend to be Grandmaster Li. I advise you to leave quickly. Don’t make trouble in front of the city lord’s palace!”

"It makes sense. How can any grandmaster wear such shabby clothes and have such a crude mask? There are no patterns at all. It's most likely just a fake."

Li Jiu asked warmly, with a trace of anxiety in his tone.

But after Li Jiu appeared, this outfit suddenly took on an image meaning.
What's more, Li Jiu is a mysterious alchemy master of the human race. He usually never leaves his house, and even the work of alchemy is handed over to another Xuan-level alchemy master!

"I am Li Jiu from Yue Tu Mansion. I would like to meet Commander Yu Jue. Can you please let me know?"

"Could it be that he has some evil intentions?"

"Li Jiu is a master of alchemy. His family must be rich. How come he looks so poor? I have heard so many rumors that I thought Grandmaster Li looked like he first entered Baizu Valley City a few months ago?!"

Seeing that he didn't move, the two raised their heads and scolded again: "Let you go, don't you hear me? The City Lord's Mansion has the rules of the City Lord's Mansion. If no one recommends you, don't come to visit!"

For a moment, Li Jiu didn't speak, and the two guards also came to a deadlock, frowning secretly.

Speaking of this, the two of them felt a little unsure. After all, the other party mentioned the name of Li Jiu from the Yuetu Mansion. Regardless of whether it was true or not, the first time they heard it was that their hearts skipped a beat. But if you really reported it on his behalf and bothered Commander Yu Jue, it would be terrible if it was fake. How stupid must you be to think that a random person on the road is the famous alchemy master Li Jiu?

I'm afraid that by then I won't even be able to work as a guard, and my salary will be deducted, so I won't be able to relax in the Red Mansion!

I really don’t dare to gamble!

Seeing that Li Jiu had not moved yet, one of the guards gritted his teeth, clenched his fist and shouted: "You are not allowed to enter the City Lord's Mansion without an introduction, I don't understand."

"Shut up!"

Suddenly, a scolding sound came from the sky. The guard's words were interrupted, but he did not dare to be angry. Instead, it was like a bell ringing, and his face turned pale.

Looking back, I saw a middle-aged man dressed in white flying from a distance, with the wind at his feet, and he closed the distance of a hundred meters with one step!

After confirming the appearance of the person they saw, the two guards' pupils trembled and their spines trembled, as if their whole bodies were soaked in ice water. They shivered and bowed their heads in greeting: "Your Majesty the City Lord!"

At that moment, they were filled with shock, fear, and uncertainty.

Why did the city lord suddenly leave seclusion?

Didn't he always dislike managing things in the city and practice all day long to seek breakthroughs?
Nowadays, the affairs of the city are almost entirely under the responsibility of Commander Yu Jue. To be honest, I have never seen the appearance of the city lord a few times. I only know that he is dressed in white and is a strong man who can transform his mind into a human form.

Although the city lord rarely shows up, no one dares to question the city lord's strength and authority, and the two of them are no exception.

Now that the unfavorable scene of guarding the gate is hit by the city lord, I'm afraid he will inevitably be punished!

"Lord City Lord, this man is pretending to be Grandmaster Li. It's hard for us to drive him away. We still hope."

Before he finished speaking, the guard was sweating profusely on his forehead, but he suddenly felt a chill on the back of his neck, as if two ice picks were piercing his spine. For a moment, his teeth were chattering and he dared not speak anymore, but listened quietly.

Seeing that he was interested, Yu Yunbai retracted his cold gaze, waved his sleeves to remove the coldness on his face, and looked at Li Jiu calmly: "What is the meaning of Grandmaster Li's sudden visit to my city lord's palace?"

Yu Yunbai has an upright posture, dressed in white clothes, with long eyebrows raised in the sky, and his handwriting is deep and dignified. He has a rather calm temperament. However, his right hand behind his back is secretly pinched, and the moist water vapor rubs on the palm of his hand, making it feel slightly smooth.

It's not that he's afraid of Li Jiu, after all, he is a strong man who has managed to change his state of mind. His state of mind is extremely strong, but his expression remains unchanged.

But he was a little worried about Li Jiu's sudden appearance.

There was no intersection between the two of them, and he also hoped that Li Jiu would only play for a while in Baizu Valley City and leave when he had enough, so he never showed up to contact him.

This is a change for the city lord. Not to mention finding out that there is a grandmaster-level alchemist living in the city, even if he hears that the master-level alchemist is coming, he will rush to greet him, and the corners of his mouth will even crack to his temples!

It's not that Yu Yunbai doesn't hope to have such an opportunity, but he is afraid that there will be a disaster behind this opportunity, and the whole city will not be able to survive the fate!
Thinking of this, Yu Yunbai saw Li Jiu's eyes become solemn, and he didn't realize that his waist muscles were a little tight.

Li Jiu, on the other hand, was a little surprised when he saw Yu Yunbai appear, but he did not hesitate and directly explained his purpose: "City Lord Bai, if the sudden visit causes any inconvenience, I will compensate for it, but can you ask the City Lord for a favor?"
