Yun Zhiqian jumped down from Ling Yuan's back and ran towards Shi Ling. The City Lord's Mansion experts that were escorting her all knelt down on one knee when they saw Yun Zhiqian and said, "Greetings, Lord Mayor!"

Yun Zhiqian did not pay any attention to them and directly went in front of Shi Ling. Looking at Shi Ling at this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the ground, his face was pale, blood was constantly flowing out from his mouth, and there were even many wounds on his body. Yun Zhiqian could even feel the mana of a Blood Coagulation expert recklessly attacking Shi Ling's internal organs from within Shi Ling's body.

At this time, Yun Zhiqian did not hesitate and sat down cross-legged as well. She then helped Shi Ling withdraw the Fa Li in his body.

Soon, a wisp of green smoke drifted out from Shi Ling's head. Only then did Shi Ling's expression turn better. Yun Zhiqian immediately took out a healing pill from her Storage Ring and placed it in Shi Ling's mouth for him to consume.

At this moment, Shi Ling opened his eyes and was about to say something, but Yun Zhiqian pressed a delicate hand to Shi Ling's mouth and shook her head gently. "There's no need to say anything, I know."

After that, the experts from the East District arrived. When they saw the scene in front of them, they lowered their heads and did not dare to speak anymore. Anyone with eyes could tell what was happening in front of them.

At this time, the Great Elder and Lee Shiyuan also rushed over, including the other three elders. After seeing the scene in front of them, they knew that Wolf Bandit's attack this time was a conspiracy against these materials.

The next morning.

When Shi Ling opened his eyes, he found that he was sleeping in Yun Zhiqian's room. Then, he sat up and looked around, but didn't see Yun Zhiqian. At the same time, he saw that his injuries had healed quite a bit.

Shi Ling sat cross-legged at the moment, and at the same time, he took out a Stellar Source Fruit and threw it into his mouth to eat. Shi Ling immediately sat cross-legged at the moment, and took out a Stellar Source Fruit and threw it into his mouth to eat.

At this time, Bai Xiaosheng flew out from the Heart Ring. He looked at Shi Ling's injuries and frowned slightly: "Is it really alright to help her like this? and you get hurt all over. "

Shi Ling nodded slightly and said, "If it's purely to help her, then it's definitely not worth it!"

Bai Xiaosheng asked in confusion, "Then why are you still going all out like that?"

Shi Ling stood up from the bed and said, "Because I'm also helping myself."

Bai Xiaosheng was confused again: "Help yourself?"

As he said that, he pondered for a moment. After seeing Shi Ling put on his clothes, Bai Xiaosheng exclaimed: "Could it be that you want the entire Yi Xiao City?"

When Shi Ling heard this, he did not reply. Instead, he sent a knowing smile towards Bai Xiaosheng to let him experience it for himself.

Immediately, Shi Ling walked towards the main hall of City Lord's Mansion, but when he arrived at the door, Shi Ling did not go in, but retreated to a pavilion not far away and casually picked up a book to read, but in reality, his eyes were looking inside.

At this moment, Shi Ling suddenly heard the voices of two people.

"Hey, you know what? Last night, the materials that our Yi Xiao City brought to us were snatched away by Wolf Bandit! "

"What!?" "It can't be, this time we have almost five thousand people under escort, and all of them are experts, how could they be robbed?"

"I'm not sure about that, but I heard that the brothers from East District said that if it wasn't for Lord Lee Shiyuan and Li, they would have advised the Great Clan Elder to bring the escorts back from the city, and the supplies wouldn't have been robbed."

"It can't be, why is Lord Li doing this?"

"I'm not sure, but it seems like Sir Li is considering the safety of our Yi Xiao City as well, right?"

After Shi Ling heard the conversation, his brows slightly creased. He thought to himself, "Last night, was it because Lee Shiyuan instigated the Great Elder to withdraw?"

Shi Ling immediately looked at the two soldiers 300 meters away and found that they were patrolling elsewhere. He originally wanted to ask them more, but now that he thought about it, shouldn't he?

In the main hall, Yun Zhiqian, the four elders, and the other higher-ups of Yi Xiao City were all present.

At this moment, Yun Zhiqian coldly said, "Great Elder, I hope you can give me an explanation!"

The Great Elder, who was sitting as an assistant, crossed his legs and supported his head with one hand, asking, "What do you want me to say?"

However, Yun Zhiqian suddenly shouted in a delicate voice, "If you didn't transfer the people you sent out from the escort team, would Wolf Bandit's scheme have succeeded?"

From Yun Zhiqian's tone, it was obvious that she was extremely angry. However, the Great Elder didn't seem to care at all as he said, "Who knew that would happen under such circumstances?"

Yun Zhiqian spoke coldly once again, "Didn't you ask the escorts about the situation at that time? Or did the person who contacted you didn't tell you what happened at the escort team? "

When the Head Elder heard this, his eyes flashed and he looked towards Lee Shiyuan's direction. He found Lee Shiyuan had his head down and didn't say anything.

Great Elder still remembered that the escort team seemed to want to tell him about the situation over there. However, an arrow suddenly shot towards him and Lee Shiyuan threw him down, causing the connection to be cut off, so he did not know what happened to the escort team.

Thinking of this, the Great Elder wanted to explain to Yun Zhiqian. However, looking at her gloomy face, he didn't want to say anything. He felt that talking to her was a waste of his breath.

However, the other party was, after all, a city lord, and his position was higher than his. He had more or less to put on an act, so he said, "Earlier, when I was in contact with someone, I was attacked by an arrow, causing me to be cut off before I could even hear the news from that side. Naturally, I don't know what was going on there, so you can't blame me for this!"

If the idiot in front of her had not summoned back his East District, then the people in the other cities would not have followed suit. Under the protection of Shi Ling, the escorting team might even be able to stop Wolf Bandit's attack, but now that the supplies had been stolen, he even said that it was not his responsibility. How could he not be angry?

However, the Great Elder stood up again at this moment, and looked at Yun Zhiqian with a cold smile: "Lord Mayor, I feel like instead of cursing at us all the time, it would be better for me to quickly think of a way to get those supplies back. Don't forget, the Lord Spirit Sword Sect only gives you three days, if you can't get those supplies back after three days, you won't be the City Lord anymore!"

Hearing that, Yun Zhiqian stood up abruptly. Her cold aura burst forth as she stared at the Great Elder. When the Great Elder sensed that Yun Zhiqian was releasing her mana, he shouted, "How dare you attack me!"

As he spoke, he took a step forward and used his cultivation base to resist Yun Zhiqian's oppression. Yun Zhiqian coldly spoke, "What do you want to do if I make a move against you?"

The Great Elder sneered again. He turned to the other three elders and said, "What are you all still doing there?"

At this moment, the three elders also stood up. They too stood together with the Great Elder to fight against Yun Zhiqian. This scene caused killing intent to rise in Yun Zhiqian's heart as she asked, "You want to rebel?"

The Great Elder sneered again: "Lord Mayor hopes for you to figure out your current position. You are just a small city lord, and I am a servant of the Nan Gong Family which is one of the three main branches of the Spirit Sword Sect. If you dare make a move against me, it shows that you are provoking the prestige of the Nan Gong Family.

At this time, the three great elders also growled, "Lord Mayor, sorry for offending you!"

Yun Zhiqian also glared at them angrily as she clenched her fists. With Yun Zhiqian's strength, it would be easy for her to kill the four people in front of her, but once she killed them, it would be just as Great Clan Elder had said, provoking the prestige of the Nan Gong Family. At that time, Spirit Sword Sect would definitely punish her.

When she thought here, Yun Zhiqian suppressed the anger in her heart. However, the Great Elder snorted coldly and immediately turned around to leave. He muttered, "You are still too young to fight with this old man!"

With that, he left along with the rest. Soon, there was no one left in the main hall. Yun Zhiqian was sitting at the head of the group, her face expressionless.

After who knows how long, Shi Ling walked in. Yun Zhiqian raised her head and looked at Shi Ling. She asked: "Have you recovered from your injuries?"

Shi Ling nodded and came to Yun Zhiqian's side. He then sat down and said, "I heard what happened just now."

Yun Zhiqian didn't say anything about this. Shi Ling then said, "I can help you get rid of Wolf Bandit!"

Hearing that, Yun Zhiqian chuckled and said, "So what if we get rid of them?"

At this moment, Shi Ling grasped Yun Zhiqian's hand. Yun Zhiqian was stunned for a moment. She looked at Shi Ling's clear eyes and asked, "What are you doing?"

Shi Ling smiled evilly and said, "If you want to solve external problems, you have to get rid of internal troubles first!"
