Chapter 778 City Lord’s Movements



There was nothing special about this blue cloaked person, he seemed like any other traveler that had just arrived in Harmony City.

But that was just because he was hiding himself.

He made sure to suppress his aura so that no one would be able to recognize him, but if one could see his appearance, they would know that he wasn’t a normal person.

After all, this was Bing Jun.

He had investigated Lin Fan and found that he had a store here in Harmony City, which was why he was here.

Of course, he couldn’t directly do anything to Lin Fan’s store, which was why he had come incognito.

His target today was the City Lord of Harmony City, He Wuji.

In his investigations, he had found that He Wuji had some kind of conflict with Lin Fan before because of his son He Yong.

Since he wasn’t able to act in Harmony City, this He Wuji was the perfect representative for him to take action with. After all, there was already a cause for conflict between the two of them, so if He Wuji were to do something to Lin Fan, it wouldn’t raise any suspicions.

The only problem was that this He Wuji was just too weak to do anything to Lin Fan.

After all, He Wuji wasn’t even in the True Soul Realm.

Even if he was at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, that didn’t mean anything when facing Lin Fan’s over a hundred Nascent Soul Realm pets.

He had experienced their might personally and he knew that the strange array that they used could create a pseudo domain. The domains were the powers of True Soul Realm Experts, they were not things that any Nascent Soul Realm Experts could resist. Even if it was only a pseudo domain.

But that was where Bing Jun came in.

The items that he had would allow He Wuji to fight Lin Fan even if he had this pseudo domain.

The one thing that he really cared about was getting Lin Xue back at this point. If Lin Fan were to get a bit or very injured, that was something that he was willing to accept.

He was just that desperate.

The only thing that he wouldn’t accept was if Lin Fan died, but he was here so he could stop He Wuji before he went too far.

There was an unmarked carriage that was waiting to pick him up when he arrived.

Bing Jun had already made contact with the City Lord, or rather his wife through the Shi Family.

This unmarked carriage took Bing Jun around Harmony City in a loop just to make sure that no one was following them, but this was the most simple carriage that could have been sent, so there was no one that even noticed them as they left.

When Bing Jun finally arrived at the City Lord Manor, he was shown in through the secret back way.

However, once he arrived in the City Lord Manor, the low key treatment completely changed and he was shown into the living room like a proper VIP guest.

In less than a minute of his arrival, the City Lord He Wuji came in with his wife and son.

He Yong’s hands were still crippled after what had happened at Lin Fan shop that day, but the rest of him was looking much better. He Wuji had spared no expense in getting the best treatment for his son, but it seemed like it was only his hands that couldn’t be cured.

He Wuji’s wife was the one that greeted Bing Jun first since she was part of the Shi Family, but she didn’t take up much of his time as she quickly introduced He Wuji and then moved to the side with He Yong.

He Wuji wasn’t a fool and he could tell with a single look that this person wasn’t a normal person, so he immediately lowered his stance and greeted him humbly.

For a proud person like him, this wasn’t something that he did normally. This was a treatment that only the leaders of the twelve great factions would receive.

Bing Jun just waved his hand since he didn’t want to waste any time with pleasantries.

He casually took out a dagger and some other items that he placed on the table and said, “These will let you get your revenge on him.” Then after a pause, he said in a sharp voice, “But remember that I want you to capture him and the girl that I’ve told you about.”

He Wuji did have a hesitant look as he said, “My lord, are you sure that I can’t kill him? I promise that I will capture the girl that you want, but I really want to kill this person.” As he said this, a look of rage suddenly filled his face and he gritted his teeth to say, “That person was the one who crippled my precious son! If I don’t take revenge, what kind of father would I be?”

But Bing Jun just looked at him with a cold gaze and said, “No, you can’t kill him.” But after a moment’s pause, he added, “But when it comes to injuring him, I won’t say anything. As long as his life is kept, you can do whatever you want.”

While He Wuji wasn’t completely satisfied with this, this was at least a compromise.

For the lord to give this compromise was already good enough and he knew better than to push his luck.

It seemed like this girl really was important to this young master Bing…

He Wuji took another look at the photo that Bing Jun had shown him just to make sure that he memorized how she looked. If he were to accidentally hurt her, he was sure that he would suffer at the hands of Bing Jun.

Bing Jun seemed calm at first, but as time passed, he couldn’t help getting more and more irritable.

He could even feel her aura in this city when he went around in the carriage earlier, but he wasn’t able to go see her which made him more and more tense.

Seeing that He Wuji was just sitting here looking over the things that he brought out, he became even more and more irritated.

He Wuji didn’t notice this at first, but he quickly noticed the look that Bing Jun gave him and realized what he wanted.

But he still said in an awkward voice, “My lord, we can’t do anything today. I still need to gather my troops and prepare everything to surround the store, so the earliest will be…”

He was about to say a week, but when he saw Bing Jun’s eyes getting colder, he couldn’t help swallowing those words.𝑶𝒱𝓛xt.𝗇𝓔t

He hesitated a bit before saying, “Three…”

But seeing Bing Jun’s eyes that could freeze the entire world, he swallowed those words again.

With some quick thinking, He Wuji quickly bit the bullet and said, “Tomorrow! I promise that we’ll move tomorrow! I need at least a day to get all the troops ready, otherwise I can’t guarantee that they won’t secretly run off.”

Bing Jun still had the same cold look, but he gave a nod and a grunt of acknowledgement.

This time, He Wuji gave him a reason that he could accept.

If they were somehow able to escape because of gaps in their circlement, then he could only blame himself for rushing He Wuji. He couldn’t let her run away no matter what, so he would have to give He Wuji this time to prepare.

Since this matter had been set, Bing Jun stood up and said in a firm voice, “Tomorrow it is. I’m looking forward to your performance.”

Then without even waiting for an answer from He Wuji, he headed off to the room that had been prepared for him.

After he left, there was only silence that was left in the living room.

After a long period of silence, He Wuji let out a long sigh of relief.

He Yong and his mother on the side had their legs turn soft as they fell to the ground.

The pressure that Bing Jun had put on them really was just too much.

But this made He Wuji even more certain that he was making the right choice. This man was definitely the one that would lead their He Family to a greater future.

The next morning, everything seemed normal at first, but people with sharp eyes could notice different things happening.

For one, the guards of Harmony City had all gathered in one spot in the city, the most popular business street.

They didn’t do anything at first, but after Lin Fan’s group had come to open the store, the guards suddenly moved. They encircled the business street and prevented anyone from going in.

At the same time, there were many groups of guards that were mobilized from all parts of Harmony City that entered this blockade.

The people watching were naturally confused by this since the number of troops moved was enough to start a war.

Could it be that there was a war that was happening?

But why would it be happening in the most popular business street?

The people all around were curious, but the guards stopped them from taking any pictures. The City Lord Manor had even restricted parts of the city’s forums just to make sure that nothing was leaked.

All of these guards that were gathering and this information lockdown, just what was happening in Harmony City?
