0 Ouyang Mingjing’s Madness 4
“But it’s only because of Qing’s concern for you that I decided to spare you,” Huang Fu remarked.
“You are far from deserving thePhoenix Girl!”
With those words spoken, Huang Fu raised his hand and struck Ouyang Mingjing with a surge of magical power. Ouyang Mingjing let out a scream and lost consciousness.
When Elder Man and Longqing arrived, they were taken aback by the sight of Ouyang Mingjing unconscious on the ground.
They hurriedly rushed to his side. “City Lord!”
Ouyang Mingjing weakly opened his eyes, appearing frail.
Elder Man had a rough understanding of the situation.
How dare they treat the City Lord in such a manner!
“What happened?!” Elder Man roared, demanding an explanation.
Despite enduring the battle the previous day, the City Lord and his faction suffered heavy losses.
They were unable to withstand the assault from the Huayin School’s leader. It was Gao Xiu and his forces who arrived and managed to drive them away.
Consequently…
The civilians began to view the City Lord unfavorably.
Furthermore, the Phoenix Girl had not made an appearance the previous day, and prior to that, some Phoenix Girls had failed to present the Golden Scrolls, which symbolized the identity of the Phoenix Girl. As a result, doubts arose about the authenticity of the Phoenix Girl.
When all of these factors were combined, the situation escalated into a major predicament.
Things were already in a chaotic state.
Snow Territory was on the brink of chaos with the City Lord in such a state!
Elder Man was filled with anger.
“What is happening here?” Huang Fu sneered. “You should ask your City Lord what has transpired.”
Gu Chaoyan remained silent as Huang Fu spoke.
The silver mask bore a resemblance to the one worn by Huaijin. And… why did Huang Fu also resemble Huaijin?
Suddenly, Ouyang Mingjing shouted in despair, “I’m ruined! I can’t use my magical power anymore!”
He sounded desperate.
Elder Man approached to investigate and discovered that it was indeed true.
He cast an incredulous glance at Huang Fu. How could this man disable the City Lord so effortlessly? How powerful must he be?
“He is the Head of Snow Territory. What right do you have to do this?” Elder Man snapped. However, he didn’t dare to provoke him, fearing he would suffer the same fate.
“Why?” Huang Fu sneered. “He humiliated the Phoenix Girl!”
“…”
“Besides, you have more sinister deeds to answer for.”
“…”
“You killed Qing, you took the Phoenix Girl hostage, and you returned to Snow Territory with her. You plotted against the King of the Saint Divine Land!”
“…”
“What you have done is sufficient to warrant him being killed ten times over. I’m showing mercy by merely crippling him,” Huang Fu declared bluntly.
He seemed inclined to continue unearthing past grievances.
Elder Man was growing exasperated with it all.
A familiar, aged voice resonated from outside. “What? You have done so many terrible things in Snow Territory?!”
“…”
“No wonder Snow Territory has been faring poorly year after year!”
“…”
“You’ve been gradually ruining us!” Gao Xiu entered with his men, accompanied by individuals of influence among the civilians.
