Chapter 680 Now, you can defend yourself
After leading Yun Xi to escape for a distance, Ling Tian threw the person to the ground.
Throwing him a bottle of healing medicine, he deliberately said in a disgusting tone.
"waste."
"..."
Yunxi endured the pain and grabbed the bottle of medicine in his hand, but did not stuff it into his mouth immediately.
He lay on the ground, looked up at Ling Tian, and asked.
"who are you?"
"The one who saves you."
"Why save me? I don't know you, right?"
Despite Yun Xi's usual carefree attitude, he was always as vigilant as he should have been.
It is precisely because of this concern that Ling Tiancai and Yan Xiaoqi put on a play. Whether it succeeds or not depends on whether his guess is correct.
Ling Tian sneered, his exposed eyes shining with disdain.
"If the city lord hadn't spoken, do you think I would be willing to save you?"
"City Lord?"
Hearing this title, Yunxi's pupils suddenly shrank.
Is this person sent by the city lord?
No, he had never seen this person beside the city lord before.
Although the other person's face was covered and his appearance could not be clearly seen, this person felt too strange to him.
But the other party pointed out that he was the city lord's man.
Very few people know about this.
Apart from a few of them, the only person who knows is the city lord himself.
If this person was not sent by the city lord, how did he know?
For a moment, Yun Xi couldn't tell whether Ling Tian's words were true or false.
In addition, the injury was serious, so he had to grit his teeth and swallow a pill.
The medicine entered his stomach, and it didn't take long for him to feel much more relaxed. It seemed that the medicine was not fake.
No matter what the origin of the other party is, at least the other party has no intention of killing him.
Yunxi breathed a sigh of relief and asked while lying on the ground.
"Why did the city lord send you here?"
"What do you say?"
Ling Tian asked back.
Yun Xi frowned. This man was really cunning and his words were impeccable.
He planned to leak some information and test it out.
"The city lord was worried about the Hu family, so he sent you to monitor them?"
Hu family?
Ling Tian's eyelids twitched slightly.
They actually colluded with the city lord?
No, not right.
Yunxi clearly didn't fully trust him yet, so why would he reveal the news about the Hu family to him?
Perhaps, the Hu family really has something to do with the city lord.
But this sentence is definitely a trap!
What has he overlooked?
Ling Tian thought quickly, but he really couldn't think of the problem.
The main reason is that Yundong disguises himself so well and blends in with the Hu family that it is difficult for people to see the flaws.
If you can't find a flaw, just don't look for it.
Ling Tian's heart moved and he sneered.
"You don't need to test me. The Hu family is just a cover-up for the city lord."
"The real back-up man is someone else."
"Besides, my mission is different from his."
Ling Tian was gambling.
Since Yun Xi mentioned the Hu family, it is very likely that the Hu family was covering for his companions.
If the other party wants to hide, there cannot be too many people.
Nine times out of ten, there is only one person.
Of course, it doesn't matter if you guess wrong.
At worst, try another way.
Sure enough, upon hearing this, the vigilance in Yun Xi's eyes dissipated a bit.
He didn't know how many trump cards the city lord had.
But it shouldn't be much.
But no matter how little it is, it's not something he can know.
What he knew was Yunbei, Yundong and Yunnan, which had been sent out by the city lord a long time ago.
The person who partners with him the most is Yundong.
As for Yunnan, he has never seen it a few times.
It is said that she is a woman, but even Yunbei, who has been partnering with Yunnan, does not know what she looks like.
This is true for several of them, let alone others.
It's normal for them not to know each other exists.
Feeling much better, Yun Xi sat up and asked.
"Then what is your mission?"
"Kill you."
"what?"
Yun Xi was stunned for a moment, showing an expression of disbelief.
Ling Tian's eyes were playful.
"Why, can't believe it?"
"You haven't been back for so long, and there's not even any news."
"Who can guarantee that you have not rebelled?"
This makes sense, and Yunxi can't refute it.
he asked through gritted teeth.
"Then why didn't you just take action and save me?"
"The city lord asked me to act easily. Whether you rebel or not, I have the final say."
Ling Tian squatted in front of Yun Xi, suddenly grabbed his throat, exerted slight force, and said with cold eyes.
"Now, you can defend yourself."
"you……"
Yunxi's eyes widened and she clenched her fists.
But he didn't dare to act rashly.
The killing intent on Ling Tian was too obvious.
If he dares to resist, he believes that his throat will be pinched by the other party before he can fight back.
Ling Tian's tone was cold.
"You have five sentences. You have just wasted one, and you have four left."
"After four sentences, I couldn't be convinced."
"I can only send you away."
Yunxi wanted to scold her.
But when the words reached his lips, he swallowed them back.
Can't be wasted!
He thought quickly about how to make Ling Tian believe in him.
At this moment, he had completely forgotten that he was still suspicious of Ling Tian.
"Ling Tian's strength does not match his realm. His strength far exceeds his realm. He is no match for even the God Transformation realm!"
"Three sentences left."
"Muwei has now fallen into Ling Tian's hands..."
"Two sentences."
"This guy has a lot of mid-level crystals in his hands. I suspect he is colluding with the city lord!"
"One sentence."
Ling Tian looked at him pitifully and reminded him "kindly".
"What you said is all information about Ling Tian and is of no use to you in proving your innocence."
That's right, these can't prove your innocence.
So what can be done?
Yun Xi was so anxious that his forehead was sweating, and his body couldn't help but start to tremble.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up and he roared.
"Yundong!"
"I didn't tell Ling Tian about Yundong's arrival, otherwise he wouldn't be safe and sound now!"
Yundong?
Is he the person sent by the city lord?
Ling Tian thought about it and found that he had never seen any masters.
Among the warriors who came to Muwei recently, the most eye-catching ones are the Hu family.
Among those people, are there anyone worth noting?
While thinking about it, Ling Tian let go of his hand and said calmly.
"I'll let you pass for now."
"Tell me, apart from what you just said, do you have any other information?"
Yunxi put her hands on the ground and gasped.
He had just walked away from the hell gate, which made him feel a little exhausted.
"Also, and..."
"Ling Tian is now the general, commanding the entire Mu Wei."
"The appointment letter was issued from the City Lord's Mansion, and it has the City Lord's seal stamped on it."
"I suspect……"
Yun Xi told everything he knew in one breath.
After I finished speaking, I realized that I had said too much.
He is not yet completely sure whether the person in front of him was sent by the city lord.
He actually told the other party everything that should be said and shouldn't be said!
If this guy wasn't sent by the city lord...
Yunxi shuddered.
I only felt a chill on my back, as if I had already felt death approaching.
What he didn't expect was that Ling Tian just said calmly.
"I understand, I will tell the city lord this news."
"One more thing..."
