Chapter 588 How come this person is more arrogant than me? !
White Paper Fairy City.
Pale green flames burned on the huge paper statue near the South Gate.
Someone cast a spell to create huge waves of water in an attempt to put out the fire.
But as the waves rolled down, the green fire suddenly changed into yellow flames and continued to burn. With the help of the power of the waves, the fire increased several times!Ning Zhuo looked out from afar and saw this scene. He thought to himself, "This fire has some tricks. It seems that it can be transformed from water to fire. If I can observe it in person, maybe I can figure out what method it is."
Ning Zhuo's realm of the five elements is very high, and he also knows many ways to use water to increase fire.
Regardless of whether it is the same method he has mastered, Ning Zhuo is confident that as long as he takes a closer look, he will be able to see the strangeness in it and will be able to master it.
But soon, the water wave dissipated, almost completely fueling the fire.
The yellow-green flames enveloped the entire statue, which collapsed with a loud bang. The remains of the statue fell to the ground, causing the ground to shake and waves of air, smoke and dust to surge.
Ning Zhuo felt inexplicably depressed.
He said to Sun Lingtong, "Boss, the White Paper Immortal City is too chaotic. Even though there is a magic array protecting this dignified immortal city, someone still took action."
"Not only did they fight violently, they also burned down the landmark buildings in the city. What does this mean?"
"Baizhi Immortal City has been infiltrated and there are many traitors. Otherwise, the Immortal City formation alone would be able to suppress these people to death."
Even if one only looked from a distance and could not see the specific scene of the battle, one could understand from the posture that these destroyers were subject to little or no suppression from the magic circle.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to cause such a huge degree of damage!"Baizhi Xiancheng is facing internal and external troubles, so there will definitely be chaos." Sun Lingtong nodded, agreeing with him.
The defense of the fairy city is outstanding.
Compared with the front-line camps of the two countries, the defensive power is much greater.
The effect of the Immortal City formation in suppressing cultivation and combat power is very obvious. As the defender, it has a great geographical advantage.
If it were the second major battle between the two countries in Qianfenglin, if the armies of the two countries occupied an immortal city, the entire battle situation would be completely different.
It can even be said that the coalition forces of Qianfenglin would not even consider actively attacking a fairy city stationed by the armies of two countries!Ning Zhuo had the idea of watching the battle from close range just a moment ago, but that had disappeared at this moment.
"Although we didn't have the opportunity to collect detailed local intelligence before entering the city. But based on our current experience, Baizhi Xiancheng is facing internal and external troubles and is in a precarious situation."
"The external threat is the ghost tide. As the pillar of this place, the Lord of Baizhi City seems to be in trouble. This has cast a huge shadow over the defense of the fairy city against the ghost tide."
"The internal threat should be the Fucheng League. So far, one of the members of the Fucheng League that I know is the White-Bone Crocodile Demon. As for Xie Sichao, the military advisor of the Yin Army, he should be from a certain force in the underworld. As a local rebel force, the Fucheng League has colluded with external forces, which makes it even more threatening."
"Alas, Baizhi Xiancheng is already a place of trouble. We can't stay here for long. Boss, let's find Sangle Youling as soon as possible and let her do the divination. After we get the result, we will leave here immediately."
Ning Zhuo and Sun Lingtong communicated secretly.
Sun Lingtong, however, had different ideas about this.
He shook his head slightly, and sent a telepathic message: "Don't do that, Xiaozhuo. We haven't experienced what a ghost tide is like. It should be nice to experience it once."
"Besides, the more dangerous it is, the more opportunities it contains."
"Think about it carefully, our wealth has increased thousands of times more than before. Why?"
"Isn't it because we risked our lives to participate in the war between the two countries?"
"If it were now, the ghost crisis in Baizhi Immortal City could also be another great opportunity for us!"
It is better to be clumsy and silent.
Sun Lingtong advised again: "Xiaozhuo, we have an advantage now. You are now a male concubine and can get in touch with the highest level in the city!"
"If the opportunity comes, this identity will bring greater chances."
Ning Zhuo nodded slightly: "That makes sense."
"But why do I feel like, Boss, you just want to have fun?"
Sun Lingtong laughed: "Just tell me, is what I said right? Are you tempted?"
Ning Zhuo was silent again.
He was indeed tempted.
If he were in Huoshi Immortal City or Wanyaomen, he would definitely hold a negative opinion and the sooner he left Baizhi Immortal City, the better, and the farther away from it, the better.
But now...
He did benefit from taking risks, and he benefited greatly.
The experience on the battlefield also triggered another level of his understanding of life.
"Then let's use this identity to get close to the higher-ups in Xiancheng and give it a try to see if there is any chance." Ning Zhuo said.
Sun Lingtong was so happy that she almost patted Ning Zhuo on the shoulder: "Xiao Zhuo, you are becoming more and more to my liking. If I had known this would happen, I should have let you travel a few years earlier."
Ning Zhuo added: "But I think it's a bit risky. If I were the city lord, I would definitely strictly scrutinize the male concubines who approached her."
"We may not make it past the first level of scrutiny."
Sun Lingtong: "Although my stealing skills have greatly improved, I am still unsure when facing the inspection of the Immortal City."
"Let's take it one step at a time. Even if we are discovered, we can always clarify our identities. Sangle Youling's status here is not low."
"Even if they want to punish us, we can always escape using Wanliyoulong."
After the two of them had discussed it, they followed the others and continued on their way. Not long after, they arrived at a separate place.
There are three big characters on the plaque on the door of Beppu - Zangyang Beppu.
The gray paper lion statue at the door saw the group of people and took the initiative to speak: "Are you the new male concubine?"
The leader then presents yes.
"Come in." The gray paper lion opened the door.
Everyone filed in.
As soon as we entered the palace, a paper maid bowed to everyone and said, "Please follow me."
The crowd walked around the screen wall, passed through the lobby, went through three layers of green-tiled corridors, passed through five layers of yin energy barriers, and came to a small garden.
"Please wait for a moment, the manager will be here soon."
Half a cup of tea later, a middle-aged human cultivator wearing a silver robe slowly walked in front of the crowd.
He glanced at everyone, tilted his head back slightly, and said in a haughty manner: "Listen, newcomers, I will first talk about the three things for today - dining, identifying the land, and allocating rooms."
"From today on, you will be living here for a while. I look forward to your good performance in the future!"
After the steward finished speaking, he put his hands behind his back and paced away again.
"Strange, there is no review?" Sun Ning and the other person looked at each other, feeling very strange.
Because at noon, a paper maid came and led everyone to the dining hall first.
When Sun Ning and his companion entered the dining hall, they found that there were a lot of people inside, at least a hundred people.
"Are these people all..." someone wondered.
The paper maid nodded: "Yes, they are all male concubines of this session."
Everyone looked at each other speechlessly.
The seats are not fixed and everyone is free to sit.
Just as Sun Lingtong was about to sit down next to Ning Zhuo, a paper guard shouted at her: "How dare you! How dare a mere ghost servant sit with a male concubine?"
Ning Zhuo didn't want to be separated from Sun Lingtong, so he explained roughly: He is my savior.
As a result, the paper servant scolded Ning Zhuo again, not giving him any face at all because of his status as a male concubine.
Ning Zhuo was slightly stunned, but when he looked at the male concubines in the hall, he immediately understood the true status of this group.
Sun Lingtong gave Ning Zhuo a look, then decisively separated and squatted in the corner to eat like the other servants.
Just as Ning Zhuo was about to taste his lunch, another paper servant called him, "Jiao Ma, the chief steward wants you to come over."
"What happened in the past?" Ning Zhuo wondered.
The paper servant sneered, "You are a newcomer, and you broke the rules right after you arrived. Naturally, I will reprimand you. Do you think there will be good news?"
Ning Zhuo was speechless for a moment.
In a private room, he met the silver-robed steward again.
The butler was enjoying the delicious food. While picking his teeth, he said to Ning Zhuo, "Jiao Ma, you just arrived and you broke the rules. You should be punished!"
Ning Zhuo immediately clasped his hands together, bowed, and spoke with a smile, neither humble nor arrogant.
Seeing his attitude, the steward's arrogance subsided a little: "Judging from your appearance, you must be from a wealthy family. It turns out that you are not ignorant of the rules, but you are rich. Tell me how much money you brought. I want to see your sincerity, and then I can allocate a good house for you."
Ning Zhuo couldn't help but be surprised.
I didn't expect that this manager would solicit bribes so openly.
He immediately recalled what the steward had said in the small garden before, saying that there were three things to do, namely, dining, identifying the land, and allocating rooms.
"It seems that these houses are both good and bad. The manager holds the power of distribution, so he abuses his power for personal gain and extorts bribes and makes huge profits in this regard." Ning Zhuo immediately understood.
He had just arrived and was completely clueless, so he wanted to get more information, so he asked, "Master Manager, how much is the house? Please explain it to me."
As a result, the steward sneered disdainfully: "What is my identity? Let me explain it to you? Since you are here to act as a male concubine, don't you have to do this little homework?"
"Give me money and I'll make the arrangements, understand?"
Ning Zhuo was extremely wealthy, and if he told the manager about it, the manager would definitely not believe it. He could make the manager extremely satisfied by just paying a tiny amount.
But Ning Zhuo thought about it and decided not to do so.
He shook his head and sneered back, "Hey! I can't stand your expression. I wanted to give you some and send you away. Now? Haha."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
The steward was left dumbfounded, watching Ning Zhuo walk away.
"no……"
"no!"
"How come this person is more arrogant than me?!"
