Chapter 258 Fame
After waiting for a while, Master Xiao didn't take the initiative to talk about today's rumors.
After thinking about it, Xiao Yuanyang took a step forward to get closer to Master Xiao.
"Father, my sister locked herself in the room, why don't you persuade her?" Xiao Yuanyang said.
"Jin'er will figure it out slowly, not to mention that Ye Chen may not really die." Master Xiao said.
"Father, do you mean that it is very likely that Ye Chen is still alive?" Xiao Yuanyang asked.
"Well, my father thinks that he is not a short-lived person." Master Xiao said.
"Then where is he? Why hasn't he returned to Ping'an City?" Xiao Yuanyang said.
"Maybe his injury hasn't healed yet." Mr. Xiao stroked his long beard and said.
Xiao Yuanyang nodded thoughtfully, now there are all kinds of rumors outside, especially someone is deliberately elevating the Su family and belittling the Xiao family.
Ye Chen's current identity is the commander of the Xiao family's guards, which represents the face of the Xiao family. If he can come back alive, it may not be a bad thing.
In the evening, the banquet hall of the City Lord's Mansion in Ping'an City was brightly lit, Lu Banshan invited Su's father and son to have dinner together.
In order to entertain the father and son of the Su family, Lu Banshan specially ordered the cook from Lindu to prepare delicious food for them without any carelessness.
After a few glasses of wine, both Lu Banshan and the Su family's father and son became slightly drunk, and the officers and men of the city lord's mansion stood guard outside the banquet hall, not to be disturbed by anyone.
Besides Lu Banshan and the Su family's father and son, Zhong Hu was also in the banquet hall. He was sitting on Lu Banshan's left hand side, and the Su family's father and son were sitting on the right hand side.
Master Su looked at Lu Banshan from the corner of his eye. Compared with the previous city lord Sima Jin, Lu Banshan was more than 01:30 points higher.
Master Su understood that their Su family was just a pawn on Lu Banshan's chessboard, but at this time it was up to their Su family to disagree.
It doesn't matter whether it's a pawn or an ally, as long as the Xiao family is brought down first, everything else is negotiable.
Master Su gently put the wine glass on the table, and bowed his hands towards Lu Banshan to salute. He still wanted to say something to Lu Banshan.
Master Su certainly didn't want to be just a pawn on Lu Banshan's chessboard, he also wanted to fight for greater authority.
Su Chen stared at his father sideways. In the City Lord's Mansion, Su Chen didn't say a word, and he regarded himself as a complete mute.
Although Su Chen is pretentious, facing the powerful Lu Banshan, he still thinks it is better not to speak, and let his father deal with Lu Banshan.
"My lord, I don't know when you plan to attack the Xiao family?" Master Su asked solemnly.
Zhong Hu narrowed his eyes and looked at Master Su, he could hear the dissatisfaction in Master Su's tone, he just felt that Master Su was getting impatient.
As long as Lu Banshan gives an order, Zhong Hu will rush over and chop up Master Su with a knife, so that Master Su will not feel that he is very valuable.
"Don't worry, it's not the best time to take action against the Xiao family. Now the Xiao family's prestige in Ping'an City has been greatly weakened." Lu Banshan put the wine glass aside and said.
"Well, it seems that the city lord already has a more secure plan in his heart." Master Su said.
"Let's not talk about this first, let's talk about the Qingniu Mountain. Did your son see Ye Chen's body?" Lu Banshan asked intently.
Zhong Hu and Master Su set their eyes on Su Chen one after another. At this time, Su Chen's reputation in Ping'an City was great, and he was likely to surpass Xiao Yuanyang.
Zhong Hu is very concerned about Ye Chen's life and death. He was once defeated by Ye Chen, and he has always been worried about this.
If possible, Zhong Hu certainly hoped that he could take Ye Chen's life with his own hands.
Su Chen's eyes were a little dull, he didn't see Ye Chen's body, he hurried back to Ping'an City after escaping the catastrophe that night in the Qingniu Gang.
Su Chen didn't have time to go to the dungeon to take a look at Ye Chen, let alone think of to take a look at Ye Chen, he just wanted to leave quickly.
"Chen'er, why are you hesitating? Tell the truth." Master Su said.
"Well, if I go back to Lord City Master, I haven't seen Ye Chen's body with my own eyes." Su Chen said while staring at Lu Banshan.
"I didn't see Ye Chen's body, does it mean that Ye Chen is probably not dead?" As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Banshan glanced at Zhong Hu.
Zhong Hu was already full of energy, but he hoped that Ye Chen would not die in Qingniu Mountain, so that he would have a chance to avenge his shame.
"My lord, you seem to be very interested in Ye Chen." Master Su said with a smile.
"Well, Ye Chen is the head of the guards of the Xiao family, and his status is not low. I have some interest in him." Lu Banshan said after taking a sip of wine.
"My lord, why don't I go to Qingniu Mountain tomorrow to search again and find Ye Chen's body." Su Chen said.
"Confused! If Ye Chen was still alive, he would have already gone far away!" Master Su said while staring at Su Chen with wide eyes.
Su Chen immediately lowered his head and said nothing. In fact, he said this on purpose, just to make Lu Banshan think he was a bit stupid.
Zhong Hu glanced at Su Chen, and smiled secretly, he had seen Xiao Yuanyang once, Su Chen and Xiao Yuanyang were worlds apart.
Zhong Hu is naturally very interested in competing with Xiao Yuanyang, but the time has not yet come.
"Master Su, you don't have to blame Mr. Su, he's just in a hurry." Lu Banshan smiled and took the initiative to say good things for Su Chen.
"Your City Master is right." Master Su stared at Lu Banshan and said with cupped hands.
"It won't be long before the Su family will become the most famous family in Ping'an City. At that time, Master Su, you must remember the kindness His Majesty the Overlord has shown you." Lu Banshan said.
"I, Su Ding, will never forget His Majesty's kindness to my Su family." Master Su said sincerely.
Half an hour later, the Su family father and son left the City Lord's Mansion, and the banquet hall had been cleaned by the City Lord's Mansion's servants.
Zhong Hu hasn't left yet, although he drank a lot of wine, Zhong Hu's mind is still clear, and he still has something to say to Lu Banshan.
From the day Zhong Hu got to know Lu Banshan, he decided to make contributions together with Lu Banshan, no matter what.
To this day, Zhong Hu still hasn't regretted his original decision, he saw endless possibilities in Lu Banshan.
Ping An City is just the first step, and it won't be long before they return to Lindu City, which is their vast world.
Lu Banshan turned around and stared at Zhong Hu. Zhong Hu was his right-hand man and his most trusted warrior. There was still friendship between them.
In front of Zhong Hu, Lu Banshan never put on the airs of the city lord, he is just Zhong Hu's eldest brother, a brother who was born and died.
After waiting for a long time, Zhong Hu still didn't speak. This is not like the previous Zhong Hu, who never hesitated.
"Let's talk, the hesitant look is really not like you today!" Lu Banshan said.
"My lord, if Ye Chen is not dead, let me kill him the next time I catch him." Zhong Hu said.
"That's natural." Lu Banshan said, he understood that Zhong Hu still cared about his defeat by Ye Chen, and his confidence was damaged by this.
Only by letting Zhong Hu take off Ye Chen's head with his own hands, Zhong Hu, who was full of confidence in the past, will reappear in the world and move forward with him.
In the southwest of Ping'an City, surrounded by high mountains, there is only a flat land in the middle, which is the headquarters of the Eight Desolation League.
