Lord Survival: My Shelter in Crocodile Territory - Chapter 428
c428 Invitation from Qingyang Mansion
Wang Shuo returned to Guancheng and planned to take Gong Zheng and Ye Tianba with him to the Demon Clan Royal Court.
Just when Wang Shuo was about to leave, Ye Tianba immediately said to Wang Shuo: “Lord, Lord Dongfang Ke of Qingyang City has sent someone to ask you to come to Qingyang Mansion.”
Wang Shuo was a little confused. At this time, the other party invited him to come over. What was he doing?
After thinking about it for a while, Wang Shuo decided to go to Qingyang City for a visit first, which would only take a day or two anyway.
There is a teleportation array from Guancheng to Iron-Blooded City. Currently, a teleportation array has been opened from Iron-Blooded City to Qingyang City, making traveling between them very convenient.
Not long after, Wang Shuo teleported to Qingyang City.
The person in charge of welcoming them was Qingyang City’s chief steward, Amber.
“Lord Wang, you have been working hard all the way. I am Amber, the great steward of Qingyang City. I am here to greet you on the orders of my lord.”
Wang Shuo nodded and said, “Lao An is the housekeeper.”
After a brief polite greeting, Wang Shuo followed Amber and walked towards the city lord’s mansion.
Qingyang City is a big city, larger than Shanhai City, and the buildings on the streets are also beautiful. Wang Shuo observed everything here carefully.
A lot of information can be obtained by looking at leopards and analyzing the force level and mental outlook of pedestrians on the street.
After a short walk, they arrived at the door of the Lord’s Mansion.
…
Just one day ago, Wang Zhu suddenly found Dongfang Ke and said worriedly: “Brother Dongfang, yesterday, the priest in my territory suddenly divined a hexagram. The hexagram showed great misfortune.”
Dongfang Katsuya immediately said seriously: “Is it more dangerous than last year?”
“Last year it was about danger, but there was still a glimmer of hope. This time… this time the sacrifice didn’t even predict where the chance of life would be.” Wang Zhu was anxious.
Over the years, Sunset Lord Wang Zhu has placed great trust in his sacrifices, and there is basically no time when he is not accurate.
After hearing Wang Zhu’s words, Dongfang Ke was in a bad mood.
Originally, they occupied a large area of Iron-Blooded City, and their territory expanded a lot.
I haven’t had time to be happy for a few days, are we about to encounter greater danger?
In fact, both of them knew it.
The greater danger is the Vagrian Empire.
In the beginning, Liu Hong helped them face the demon clan. Now that Liu Hong has fallen, it is up to them to resist the demon clan on their own.
“Hey! It’s true that Cai Lang has left and Tiger Leopard has come!”
“Brother Wang Zhu, do you have any ideas? At this time, we are like grasshoppers tied to a rope!”
Wang Zhu paced and pondered, and then said: “Why don’t we invite people from Dahuai Territory to discuss countermeasures together?”
Wang Zhu remembered that Wang Shuo was his life-saving straw, and he relied on him to resolve the last crisis.
“It seems that’s all it can do.”
…
An Bo led Wang Shuo through the long steps to the main hall.
Dongfang Ke and Wang Zhu have been waiting for a long time.
“Lord Wang Shuo, I’m here to welcome you, but I hope you’ll forgive me for not being able to welcome you from afar.”
Dongfang Ke kept his posture very low, as if he already regarded Wang Shuo as a person of the same level, without any slightest contempt.
“I have met two lords.” Wang Shuo was neither humble nor overbearing, and returned the favor with a smile.
The three of them sat down, and after the maid served melons, fruits, and wine, they left.
There were only three of them left in the hall.
As the host, Dongfang Ke said with a smile: “Lord Wang Shuo, are you still used to it during this time?”
Wang Shuo nodded: “Thanks to Mr. Tozak, the weather in Guancheng is not bad, not as oppressive as in Dahuaiyu.”
When Wang Zhu heard about Mr. Zach, he felt shocked. He might not have contacted Mr. Zach for a long time.
“Lord Wang Shuo, the two of us invited you here this time because we have something to discuss.” Wang Zhu got straight to the point and said directly.
He was very anxious and didn’t want to be polite anymore.
