Supreme Demon God

Chapter 33: This Person Is Under My Wing Now

Sun Martial City naturally had a city lord, whose name was Wang Mingkui, who was also a Core Formation cultivator.

In theory, the entire Sun Martial city's government affairs were handled by Wang Mingkui, and the city guards were also directly under the control of Wang Mingkui.

However, the real situation was that the six major families had deep roots and enormous influence. Many people had been placed in the city guards, so that the city guards only listened to the words of the six major families and were not controlled by Wang Mingkui at all.

The city guard originally had 5,000 people. But because the former patriarch Mo Zhuo participated in the rebellion of the king of Yan Kingdom, he took away a large part, so that only about 2,000 people remained.

The remaining 2,000 people were not under Wang Mingkui's control, but instead, took orders from the Ning, Liu, Jiang, Zheng, and Guo Family.

So Wang Mingkui, the bright city lord of Sun Martial City, could only handle some of the government affairs of Sun Martial City.

If the government encountered difficulties and needed to dispatch the city guards, the city guards would also cooperate, but Wang Mingkui had to come forward to request in person instead of issuing orders to dispatch directly.

Under this circumstance, some people of Sun Martial City naturally only knew that there were six great families, but they did not know that there was Wang Mingkui, the lord of Sun Martial City.

After Yan Wuji came to power, Wang Mingkui also followed with fear.

Although he did not openly confront Yan Wuji, the Mo Family was involved in the former King Qin's rebellion, and the Mo Family was a family of Sun Martial Family. Since he, Wang Mingkui failed to stop it, it was not without responsibility.

He already had the thought of breaking the jar, thinking about the big deal. Anyway, he still wanted to be the city lord of Sun Martial city.

After waiting for more than half a month, Yan Wuji finally sent someone to Sun Martial City, but he wasn't here to punish him, and that person turned out to be Wan Yixuan, one of the four masters of the country.

Wan Yixuan brought Yan Wuji's will, not only did not punish him, but also forced the five great families to compromise, and helped him take control of the city guards in Sun Martial City, and then successfully incorporated him.

After taking control of the city guards in Sun Martial City, the first thing Wan Yixuan asked him to do was to dispatch the city guards and search from house to house in Sun Martial City, with the purpose of finding the former third princess, Yan Ran.

Wang Mingkui was shocked to learn that Yan Ran had fled to Sun Martial City.

After all, Sun Martial City was still a certain distance away from Yan Capital. How could Yan Ran come to hide in Sun Martial City?

Later, he learned that there was another remarkable figure living in Sun Martial City, Lin Jiannan, who was also one of the four masters of the Yan Kingdom.

It was just that Lin Jiannan was very low-key, almost no one knew that this person was in Sun Martial City.

Yan Ran was one of the people who knew that Lin Jiannan was in Sun Martial City. Part of the reason why she fled to Sun Martial City was to seek Lin Jiannan's help.

Although Lin Jiannan was also one of the four great masters of the Yan Kingdom, this master was only at the top of the Core Formation Realm, and his true strength had not reached the Spirit Vessel Realm yet.

Although Wan Yixuan had just broken through to the Spirit Vessel Realm, his strength was no longer comparable to the previous realm.

After the city guards searched, they found Lin Jiannan and Yan Ran's guard, Lin Jie, but Yan Ran herself was missing.

With Wan Yixuan, Lin Jiannan was naturally not worth mentioning. With just Wan Yixuan's few moves, he severely injured by Lin Jiannan. Lin Jie's strength was even worse and she was also captured.

After that, Wan Yixuan handed over the search of Yan Ran to Wang Mingkui, and he went to the Mo Family.

Wang Mingkui didn't know anything about what happened in the Mo's mansion. Even the news that the Liu Family, Jiang Family, Zheng Family, and Guo Family were destroyed by Mo Xiu alone was not reported to him. His whole mind was searching for Yan Ran.

He knew how important Yan Ran was, and how Yan Wuji wanted to get rid of Yan Ran. So as long as he could catch Yan Ran or kill Yan Ran and cut off Yan Ran's head, he would definitely be rewarded generously by Yan Wuji in the future.

Therefore, this was a very important matter, and he would catch Yan Ran no matter what.

After Yan Ran lost Lin Jiannan and Lin Jie, she could no longer ask for help from anyone, and he, Wang Mingkui completely controlled the city guards. Therefore, in his opinion, it was only a matter of time before Yan Ran was caught.

"City Lord, I found Yan Ran." A confidant came to report timely.

"Oh?"

Wang Mingkui's eyes lit up, and he quickly got up and said, "Take me over quickly."

...

In a corner of Sun Martial City.

The streets and lanes nearby were sealed off, and the city guards were patrolling vigilantly everywhere, but more city guards forced Yan Ran to retreat to the corner, enclosing Yan Ran completely.

"Is this the end?" Yan Ran sighed, her eyes could not hide the loneliness.

She did not regret fleeing to Sun Martial City.

Yan Wuji had a sea of "blood and deep" hatred for her, she did not want revenge all the time, and Yan Wuji was so powerful that she had to admit it.

The first step for revenge was to find Lin Jiannan, who lived in seclusion in Sun Martial City. After all, Lin Jiannan was one of the four masters of the Yan Kingdom, and his loyalty could be guaranteed.

She did this step without failure, but it was a pity that Lin Jiannan alone was not enough.

After that, she looked at the Mo Family again. After all, the Mo Family had participated in King Qin's rebellion, and she had a relationship with the former Mo Family's leader, Mo Zhuo in several ways.

However, the Mo Family seemed to be unable to protect even itself, and she was not sure whether the Mo Family would support her, so she could only wait silently, stay on the sidelines, and wait for a suitable opportunity before taking action.

However, she didn't expect that the crisis came before the opportunity.

Lin Jiannan was severely injured by Wan Yixuan, Lin Jie was also arrested, and now, she was forced to the corner and surrounded by the city guards, almost a dead-end.

She felt a little desperate thinking about it.

Although the city guards surrounded Yan Ran, they did not immediately kill Yan Ran, but waited for the city lord Wang Mingkui to come and deal with it himself.

Before Wang Mingkui came, a figure fell from the sky and landed beside Yan Ran without warning.

"It's you!"

Yan Ran glanced at the visitor, was stunned for a moment, and quickly became overjoyed.

The person who appeared next to Yan Ran at this moment was naturally Mo Xiu.

Mo Xiu's Divine Consciousness had always enveloped the entire Sun Martial City, and every move in Sun Martial City couldn't escape his eye. Seeing Yan Ran encounter danger, he would naturally not ignore it. After all, Yan Ran still had a certain value.

He once saved Yan Ran's life, and there was no reason to let that rescue be wasted.

Yan Ran didn't know the identity of Mo Xiu. After all, there were very few people who knew Mo Xiu in Sun Martial City, let alone Yan Ran, an outsider.

It didn't matter what Mo Xiu's identity was. She knew that Mo Xiu was her lifesaver, so she was not completely unfamiliar with Mo Xiu.

She was just a little puzzled, "Why are you here?"

"Come to save you." Mo Xiu replied calmly.

"Save me? Do you know that I am in danger?" Yan Ran suddenly couldn't believe it.

"I know." Mo Xiu nodded gently.

"..."

Yan Ran looked at Mo Xiu silently, her beautiful eyes brightened a bit.

The city guards that surrounded Yan Ran were in a commotion. They didn't understand where Mo Xiu came from, and couldn't figure out why Mo Xiu could fall from the sky when the nearby streets were blocked.

Soon, the city lord of Sun Martial, Wang Mingkui, hurried over under the leadership of his confidant.

After seeing Mo Xiu, Wang Mingkui was also taken aback for a while, and quickly looked at the confidant beside him, and asked, "Who is this again?"

The confidant was stunned, not knowing how to answer.

"My lord, this guy just appeared suddenly, and he wants to save Yan Ran." A soldier replied on his behalf.

"Come to save Yan Ran?"

Wang Mingkui frowned and couldn't help but secretly slander, "Under such a heavy blockade, he can suddenly enter here?"

There was a hint of anger in his heart, but he did not start to blame. Instead, he looked at Mo Xiu and asked, "Who is Your Excellency? Why do you bother with our affair?"

Still the same sentence, although Mo Xiu was the eldest young master of the Mo Family, for eighteen years, he had given everyone the impression that he was a fool who couldn't get out of his house.

After his Divine Soul awakened, he took a few trips outside the Mo Family's mansion, but there were still very few people who saw and knew him.

Although Wang Mingkui was the city lord of Sun Martial City and he had visited the Mo's house, but even if he visited Mo's house, he would not visit a fool on purpose. If he really wanted to do this, it would only annoy the Mo Family.

Therefore, even if Mo Xiu was standing in front of Wang Mingkui at this moment, Wang Mingkui would not recognize him. He didn't know that Mo Xiu was the eldest young master of the Mo Family, and now the man behind the control of the entire Mo Family.

Mo Xiu didn't answer Wang Mingkui's question, but said, "Yan Ran is under my wing now. As long as she is in Sun Martial City, you must not be presumptuous to her."

As soon as this remark came out, everyone was stunned.

"What?"

"I heard it wrong, right?"

"Where does this arrogant and ignorant guy come from?"

"Who does this guy think he is? Do you think we have to listen to you with that presumptuous of yours?"

"Too arrogant! I want to see where he has the courage to say to keep Yan Ran!"

...

The city guards couldn't pay attention to the rules and suddenly became noisy.

Wang Mingkui also felt unwell, and said quickly, "Since Your Excellency knows that she is Yan Ran, you should know her identity."

As he said, his tone increased a bit, "This is the person wanted by His Majesty. Could it be Your Excellency wants to be an enemy of His Majesty today?"

"Yan Wuji?"

Mo Xiu's face was full of disdain, "What is he? Is he worthy of being my enemy too?"

Hearing this, everyone was even more stunned, not only wondering if they had heard it wrong, but had risen to the level of doubting if they had hallucinations.

It was an undeniable fact that the current emperor Yan Wuji was in a bad position. Some people were disgusted with Yan Wuji, but at most, they just talked about it in private.

No matter how dark Yan Wuji was, there was no doubt that his strength was unfathomable. There were countless experts under his hand, and he controlled a million elite soldiers. Under this sky, who dared to be his enemy?

Now, a certain someone said that Yan Wuji was not worthy of being his enemy...

Where did this guy buy so much confidence from for to say such a thing?

Different from Wang Mingkui and others' reactions, Yan Ran looked at Mo Xiu next to her with colorful eyes and she also revealed a bit of obsessiveness.
