317 Pointless Arguments
Sky City.
The current situation in Sky City was as expected. After the City Lord died, all order collapsed. Many people were secretly fighting for the position of city lord.
There was a huge crack in the middle of Sky City.
It was as if Sky City had been cut in two by someone.
Originally, there were many races living in Sky City, but most of them were either dead, injured, or had fled.
The chaos caused many races to turn on each other.
Right now, the two most powerful people in Sky City were staring at each other.
Behind each of them were a number of races. In Sky City, there were now two remaining factions, who were now in discussion in this conference room.
Both sides believed that they were the ones qualified to replace the City Lord.
One side talked about how closely they worked with the previous City Lord, while the other side talked about how they had run Sky City while the City Lord was recuperating.
One side even claimed to be his relatives. In any case, both of them would not back down, and were in a heated argument.
The truth of the matter was that neither side had bothered to help Adrian when he was fighting Yuchi, and neither side had bothered to pursue Yuchi to take revenge. It was all pretty laughable really.
Furthermore, they were terrified of the possibility that Yuchi would suddenly return to Sky City to take the position of Sky City.
All of this was witnessed by Gu Changheng, who was outside.
These people were fighting with their words, but did not dare to take action physically. He found it quite ridiculous.
“It seems that the City Lord was targeting Yuchi’s jinx.”
“That’s how they ended up fighting, if it can even be called that.”
Gu Changheng also remembered that he had similar experiences in the past. Gu Yushen had kept him safe on multiple occasions.
She was really his benefactor.
“I will definitely do my best for Master, even in death.”
As the two sides continued to bicker, Gu Changheng helplessly made his presence known.
“I’m sorry for disturbing you while you’re dividing Sky City.”
“I am Gu Changheng, and I hail from a distant place. I just wanted to ask if you knew where Senior Yuchi went.”
“We’ll reward you handsomely for the information.”
However, his polite question was taken poorly.
“Who do you think you are?”
“How dare you act like this in Sky City?”
“Get out of here right now, or we’ll kill you right now!”
One of the men angrily slammed the table and stood up, brandishing his saber in Gu Changheng’s direction.
“I was just asking a simple question,” Gu Changheng said.
“Send my regards to your dead mother, you wuss,” the man said.
That enraged Gu Changheng.
A blade had appeared in his hand at some point, which was held between his index and middle fingers as he charged forward.
Before the man could react, his fist had already landed on the man’s face, causing it to cave in. The blade had also punctured a hole in his face, causing all manner of matter to spray all over the room.
Then, he threw a backhand punch, and the blade separated the man’s head from his neck, and a brief wave of his hand sent the man’s body flying through the sky over the horizon.
Gu Changheng beckoned with his finger.
“Since you boorish people dared to insult me, come at me together.”
“Let’s see if you can walk your talk.”
The people in the room instantly knew that they had encountered an expert.
However, the current situation did not allow them any other options.
More than a dozen people stood up in an instant. They immediately pulled out their weapons and communicated with each other with their eyes.
There was only one person on the other side, while they had ten people.
They would temporarily put aside their differences and attack Gu Changheng together.
