Chapter 353 My brother, let's settle this once and for all!
After returning to the eastern part of the city of ruins.
Sotun immediately took the remaining 300 million and headed straight for the Earth Dragon Turtle again.
"Once the deal is done, everything will be settled!" Sotun said, his heart pounding with excitement as he hurried on his way.
Once he gets rid of Xiao Yu, he can confront Xue Ye directly and force her to step down.
Then, ascend to the position of the main city lord and reach the pinnacle of life!
And the city of ruins will reach new heights under his leadership!
"Lord City Lord, look! There are people over there..." At this moment, the tall, thin, bald man who had been scouting ahead suddenly pointed south and shouted, "That flying technique... it belongs to that person from the Xue family!"
"The Xue family?"
Upon hearing this, Sotun felt a jolt in his heart.
I have a strange sense of unease.
Thinking of this, he immediately focused his attention on it.
In the vast desert, three figures were seen flying rapidly within energy shields.
The energy shield was flying towards the City of Ruins, the main city.
"Zhongnu? And he brought Xue Donglai and Xue Qingcheng with him? What did they go to do?" After confirming the identities of the three, Sotun felt even more uneasy.
"Brother, they might have been to Longcheng. Should we give chase?" Batu immediately realized this when he saw that the three people were coming from the south and would come face to face with them.
The three of them were most likely from Dragon City.
At this moment, the gaunt old man, Zhongnu, had clearly also seen Sotun and the others.
Without the slightest hesitation, Zhongnu led Xue Donglai and his sister and suddenly accelerated.
Instantly, the energy ball he condensed accelerated.
In just one second, it flew hundreds of meters away, instantly widening the distance.
"At that speed of escape, who can catch up?" Sotun looked in the direction where the loyal slave had fled, only to see the yellow sand he had kicked up. His lips twitched.
Even when the loyal servant was fleeing with all his might, he couldn't catch up with him.
It's like a range hood speeding by, leaving only billowing smoke behind.
No matter how hard you try to catch up, you can't catch up at all.
The only thing we could catch was thick black smoke, more than we could eat!
Batu and the others watched helplessly as the loyal slave ran off into the distance, then looked at Sotun with blank expressions. "What do we do now? What if..."
"Let's go to Dragon City first and complete the transaction!" Sotun made the decision after a moment's thought.
Ignoring Batu and the others, they sped off southwards.
"Sigh, let's go!" Batu and the others sighed and had no choice but to follow.
The Earth Dragon Turtle was getting closer and closer to the City of Ruins.
So, not long after, the group saw the Earth Dragon Turtle.
Then, they successfully entered Dragon City.
"Take me to see your city lord immediately!"
Upon seeing that it was an acquaintance, or someone whom the city lord had spoken to, the guards immediately let them pass.
Soon, Sotun led his men into the inner city and arrived at the city lord's mansion.
"Lord Xiao Yu, I would like to ask if Xue Donglai has been here?" At this moment, Sotuen was in a very irritable mood, and his tone was somewhat dissatisfied.
"So what if I've been here?" Xiao Yu said calmly.
"The City Lord sold them healing medicine?" Sotun stared at Xiao Yu, his face full of anger. "City Lord, you said that after I did five million in business with you, we were friends, but why..."
"Lord Sotun! Please watch your tone!"
Facing the accusing Sotun, Xiao Yu showed no mercy, responding in a cold voice, "I said I wouldn't help them! May I ask, have you seen me make a move?"
"I..."
Upon hearing this, Sotun was immediately speechless.
Speechless for a moment.
Okay, Xiao Yu didn't actually make a move.
"Hahaha... Lord Xiao Yu, I'm so sorry I lost my composure just now!" Suddenly, Sotun laughed twice and then bowed slightly to Xiao Yu in apology.
"I have paid all five million energy stones! Goodbye!"
At that moment, for some reason, Sotun felt a sudden sense of relief.
As soon as they left Dragon City, Batu and the others said with dissatisfaction, "This Dragon City Lord has gone too far! He actually went back on his word."
"We agreed that we were already friends, how can you treat your friends like this?"
"shut up!"
A cold shout stopped everyone. Sotun said in a cold voice, "The Lord of Dragon City did the right thing! He gave us both a fair chance to fight! With his strength, if he had directly helped Lord Xueye City recover or attacked us, we would have been finished long ago."
Upon hearing this, Batu and the others fell silent, unable to refute it.
That may sound harsh, but it's absolutely true.
With Xiao Yu's strength, he can do whatever he wants, and they are powerless to resist.
Right now, they're just saying they won't help either side; if anyone's to blame, it's their own lack of strength.
"Now, you all return to the East City immediately!"
Sotun glanced in the direction of the main city of the Ruins City and said in a deep voice, "I'm going to see Lord Xueye City and settle things once and for all! If I don't return, you will either submit to Lord Xueye City or pledge allegiance to Dragon City!"
"What? Brother, you don't mean to?" Batu immediately became anxious.
What is this guy trying to do? Is he going to fight the Lord of Snow Night City to the death?
"Lord City Lord! Please reconsider!" Baldy and the others immediately knelt on one knee, pleading, "The most dangerous moment hasn't arrived yet. Even if Lord Snow Night has healing medicine, he'll need time to recover. Perhaps we should take advantage of his..."
"Shut up, all of you! My mind is made up! Go back immediately!" Sotun's tone was cold and unyielding. "This is a matter between Lord Xueye and me. There's no need for unnecessary sacrifices!"
"Yes!" In the end, the group could only leave reluctantly.
As the group walked away, Batu, the younger brother, was also forcibly dragged away by them.
Sotun looked towards the main city, and with a swift movement, transformed into a streak of light and headed straight for the main city.
"Lord of Snow Night City, my brother! Let's settle this once and for all."
At this moment, in the main city of the ruins, inside the city lord's mansion.
A large number of figures were moving about, and thousands of armored warriors were rapidly assembling.
The leaders were soldiers in gold or silver armor, each of whom was a sixth or seventh-level expert.
The two leading figures were a gaunt old man at the peak of the eighth rank, and a loyal servant.
The other person was a burly, bull-horned man who was over three meters tall.
This person was none other than Chen Beichen, the city lord of Beicheng.
An eighth-tier peak expert with orc blood, a close-combat martial artist with unparalleled strength and defense.
Chen Beichen is also the only one among the four city lords from the east, west, south, and north who is a staunch loyalist of the Xue family.
Even if the Lord of the East City, Sotun, offered a high price to bribe him, he wouldn't listen.
"Everyone, Lord Xueye has protected the City of Ruins for many years and has done us a great favor." Chen Beichen carried a three-meter-long iron hammer, raised it above his head, and looked like a steel giant, his voice like thunder.
"Today is a crucial moment for the Lord of the City. Everyone must be on high alert!"
"Yes! We will swear to protect the city lord's mansion to the death!" the soldiers roared.
The soldiers had just finished shouting when they saw a figure crash to the ground like a meteor.
"I didn't expect you to arrive so quickly!"
Upon seeing the newcomer, Zhongnu and Chen Beichen immediately stepped in front of Sotun to block him.
Then, the two looked around, both with suspicious expressions. "You came alone?"
“One person… is enough. There’s no need to add to the casualties.” Sotun said calmly, then looked towards the depths of the city lord’s mansion, his gaze sharp. “City Lord Xueye, come out!”
"Hahaha..."
A loud laugh suddenly rang out, shaking the heavens and the earth.
Even the clouds thousands of meters above the sky scattered.
The next second, raindrops filled the area for miles around.
However, these raindrops instantly turned into ice and snow when they were a hundred meters above the ground.
In the blink of an eye, the area within a radius of dozens of miles was covered with a layer of frost.
"Lord Xueye, it seems you have truly recovered! In that case, let us fight!"
"Hahaha...Then let's have a good, good fight, you two brothers."
