Chapter 181 Davis Appears
The thunderous sound of hooves pounded the ground like lightning, like an army marching through a narrow street in the city of Gengxin. Although the enemy's formation could not be seen, the sound alone indicated that the number of people involved was far beyond imagination.
The members of the blacksmiths' association looked at each other in bewilderment. Even those who were about to enter the canteen at the back stopped in their tracks. With such a loud hoofbeat, you could easily believe it was an army arriving.
However, given the Spirit Hall's audacity in deploying such a large army of carriages in a Star Luo town, isn't it a sign of disrespect for the Star Luo Empire?
It's one thing to allow you to travel by carriage, but it's quite another to allow you to move around like this with such a loud roar.
Xiao Yan immediately grabbed Xue'er's hand and led her around to the back hall.
"Wait here for me for a while. If it's the Spirit Hall's group, they're definitely coming for you. If you sense something's wrong, slip away through the backyard," Xiao Yan instructed the other party.
However, the other party didn't seem to appreciate it, and she shook her head.
"If they're really after me, and you're with me, do you think they'll let you off the hook? What do you plan to do with them?"
""
"I have my own way," Xiao Yan replied confidently, and as he spoke, the Rolling Ball Beast had already been summoned into his hands.
If they really piss them off, I can just let Tyrannomon crush these indiscriminate thugs.
Killing is unnecessary, but a single tail swipe from the Tyrannosaurus Rex should be enough to disable the fighting and pursuit abilities of these soldiers who are not Soul Masters.
Although exposing his abilities might make him a wanted person by the Spirit Hall or even the Star Luo Sect, there was no other way at the moment.
Although Lou Gao is a Soul Saint, they don't have much of a relationship. There's no reason for the other party to fall out with the Spirit Hall for his sake.
"No." Xue'er shook her head again, somewhat stubbornly. Changing her usual gentle tone, she walked straight to Xiao Yan and returned to the main hall of the Blacksmith Association.
"Don't forget, I'm a Soul Emperor. If anyone's going to protect someone, it's me protecting you."
Xiao Yan smiled wryly. Although he had never killed a Soul Emperor, it didn't mean he couldn't fight one. But right now, it was indeed difficult to explain to the other party.
"Never mind," Xiao Yan sighed. They had only just entered Xingluo territory and already gotten into so much trouble. He should probably tone down his behavior in the future, after all, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake.
However, when he entered the lobby, he was dumbfounded.
Lou Gao had already led a group of blacksmiths to wait at the association's main gate, ready to fight.
No, Grandpa Lou Gao, you're so righteous?
Xiao Yan also felt that the other party shouldn't go to such lengths for him, but Lou Gao naturally had his own considerations. This Miles had caused trouble in their blacksmiths' association time and time again. If they continued to tolerate it, others would really think that their blacksmiths' association was easy to bully.
Even if things end badly, in Lou Gao's view, it's just a matter of the Spirit Hall replacing a purple-robed bishop. Lou Gao believes that Miles is also well aware of this.
If Lou Gao hadn't refused to join the Spirit Hall, his status would have been much higher than Miles'.
The sound of hooves grew closer, accompanied by the whistling of wind. The leading horse was clad in armor, and its rider stopped precisely at the entrance to the association. He was also wearing armor, but his protruding belly mercilessly demonstrated the ravages of time. The rider dismounted and frowned as he looked at the group of blacksmiths ready for a fight.
"What are you doing, Lou Gao? Are you planning a rebellion?"
Lou Gao was still standing at the front, pipe in hand, but the seven spirit rings on his body were undoubtedly a show of defiance. Behind him, the blacksmiths were either spirit masters who had already awakened their martial spirits, or non-spirit masters who had picked up their preferred cold weapons.
They all held their weapons defensively, aiming them at the doorway.
Lou Gao was surprised to see who it was, but his expression remained unfriendly: "Old Jiang, what are you doing here?"
The visitor was none other than the city lord of Gengxin City.
"I am the city lord of Gengxin City. Do I need a reason to inspect Gengxin City?" Upon hearing this, City Lord Jiang immediately spoke up righteously.
"Come on, look at the armor you're wearing. I have to say, your horse is better taken care of than you are. Your physique is no longer suitable for wearing armor. Why don't you come here and have a new set made?"
Lou Gao made no attempt to hide his sarcasm at the other party, saying that if he, as the city lord, hadn't acted like a coward all these years, he wouldn't have been able to embolden the Spirit Hall group.
"I'm here today on important business, so let's be serious for a moment!" Lord Jiang said loudly, his neck flushed red.
Then he immediately changed his expression and turned his head in a humble manner. Only then did everyone notice that behind his tall horse was a group of soldiers, and their armor was obviously different from that of the city lord's guards, being relatively more magnificent.
The well-trained soldiers surrounded a carriage, and only after the carriage came to a stop did the passengers slowly get off.
He stood up straight, his height even taller and more imposing than the group of soldiers around him. His long, golden hair, which could only be described as magnificent, cascaded over his shoulders, and his eyes held a wild, arrogant look.
Xiao Yan's expression hardened when he saw the other party. The arrival of City Lord Jiang earlier had not made him lower his guard. After all, in his opinion, someone who could make such a city lord personally appear must be someone of extraordinary status. However, he did not expect that it would be Dai Mubai's own brother, the prince of the Star Luo Empire, Davis, who came in person.
Davis got off the carriage and, without saying much, took the arm of the beautiful woman with black hair beside him and slowly walked to the front of the building.
The woman, like a playful kitten or a slightly sleepy tiger, nestled against the other's shoulder, completely oblivious to the stares of those around them.
Clearly, Dai Mubai's complete defeat has already indicated that the two people in front of him are the future male and female masters of Xingluo; it's only a matter of time.
Davis stood at the entrance of the association, glanced around, and seemed somewhat unfamiliar with the Blacksmith Association's welcoming manner, which was quite different from what Lord Jiang had described.
Lord Jiang, standing to the side, bent over and explained the situation with a forced smile.
"Have the people from the Spirit Hall become this presumptuous?"
It seemed that Lord Jiang could no longer protect the future master of the country, and told Davis everything that had happened at the Blacksmiths' Association that day.
It seems that Lord Jiang is indeed in cahoots with Miles.
"But I'll deal with these things later."
As Davis spoke, he raised his head and looked at the group of people in the association. Whether it was Xue'er's outstanding appearance or Xiao Yan's extraordinary temperament, Davis found Xiao Yan in the crowd without much effort.
This is the face he has looked at in the portrait hundreds of times.
"Xiao Yan, come and have a chat with me, no matter what your status is."
"After catching Xiao Yan, Davis spoke up, explaining his purpose for coming here."
