As dusk approached, Li Ling and others returned to Chuxiong Mansion.

However, the situation in the city at this time was very different from the lively atmosphere of the city in the morning, which was a major local festival. There were soldiers and horses constantly coming and going on the street. Walking on the road, you could hear sad crying from time to time from time to time from the house, and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

After taking a closer look, Li Ling found that the soldiers patrolling the streets were not the defenders of the city, but were replaced by a mixture of various barbarians and Dingxi Army, which did not even have uniform armor. This naturally made him feel a little unusual and his face was puzzled.

Seeing this, Xiao Chengzhi, who was rushing forward, smiled bitterly: "Brother Li, you have seen it too. This chaos is really big. Many people are confused because of this assassination. There are hundreds of casualties due to panic and running and trampling. Therefore, there are many conflicts in the city. My father asked us to send troops to suppress the whole city to prevent a greater disaster."

"What about the soldiers and horses that should have in this city?" Yang Chen also saw that there was a problem and asked after chasing him.

"Mu Kun has a problem, so it is natural that the people under his command will not be able to believe it anymore. Our families have taken all the weapons of the defenders together and taken them all into custody."

Xiao Chengzhi's answer was very direct, and there was no such thing as those who were the officials of the Central Plains to maintain the surface harmony. However, Li Ling agreed with this. It was time, so why should he care about his face? The previous assassination was seen by everyone. Although Shao Qiuxi's last stab was dangerous, he could not ignore the sneak attack that attracted everyone's attention before him.

The first group of assassins who suddenly attacked were all pretending to be Mu Kun's guards to get close to Xiao Ding. If Dingxi Hou had not had his outstanding martial arts skills, he would have probably killed him in an instant. In this way, Mu Kun's sin would be too great, so naturally it would not be possible for anyone to believe him anymore, and thus deprive the control of the entire city from him.

In fact, Mu Kun's situation was even worse at this moment. He had been tied up and was besieged in front of Xiao Ding and Duan Siyu. At this time, his face was as white as earth, and his body shook into a dead leaf in the wind. He kept saying spared his life, but he couldn't even say half of the unjust words.

"Take your life? I want to spare your life, but you have to give us a reason. Do you know that because of your actions, many people in the city have suffered, and the brothers and tribesmen under our side have also been damaged. If we cannot give us an explanation, I will spare you and others will not let you go!" Xiao Ding stared at him with a stern expression and said.

"The lower official knows that he is guilty, marquis, the lower official knows that he is colluding with others and wants to harm you, which is really a great crime... But the lower official is forced to do so because he has no choice but to do so. If the lower official does not cooperate with them and does not put the assassins around, he is afraid that the lower official's family will be killed by them." Mu Kun no longer had the intention of hiding it, and immediately kowtowed hard and explained the truth.

"Huh?" Xiao Ding was a little stunned, and Gao Wenyi, who was beside him, had approached and lowered his voice: "Marty, what he said is indeed, my people have already investigated. More than 30 people from the Mu family have never appeared in front of others during this period. And according to his confidants, some people have had secret contact with him in the past few days and nights, and those assassins were temporarily inserted into the guard team by him last night."

Xiao Ding snorted coldly and continued to stare at Mu Kun: "Since such a thing happened, why didn't you tell me about it early in the morning, but you would be held hostage?"

"Secretary...Secretary is also confused for a moment, only worried about the safety of his family, so that he can do such a thing. Marquis, if you really want to kill me, I have nothing to say, I just hope that the Marquis can rescue my family... As long as my family is safe, I will die and be grateful to the Marquis..."

"Do you think you can be defeated by death?" Duan Siyu also spoke indifferently, "Do you know who are the people who were injured by you this time? There are people in our surnames and villages who have suffered casualties due to this chaos. If you really want to pursue it, can your Mu family afford it? Let me ask you, who are the people who threaten you, and where are they hiding?"

There was a little room for this, but more importantly, I wanted to ask the murderer's identity and whereabouts from him. At this time, Mu Kun certainly did not dare to hide it anymore, so he could only say truthfully: "These people claim to be the remnants of the Huntian Army, and there are no specific officials who dared not ask. As for their destination, they were in a courtyard in the west of the city..." As he said that, he reported an address.

Although everyone knows that most of the murderers had already escaped at this time, they immediately ordered someone to go and investigate, and at least they found some clues. Then, Mu Kun could not ask more valuable things here. Obviously, he was just a tool to be used, so naturally it was impossible to master more inside information about the other party.

After ordering someone to take him down to guard him strictly, Xiao Chengzhi took Li Ling forward and asked him to see him: "Father, Lord Li has been successfully rescued by us."

"Wen Zhong comes in quickly, but this time it scares you. Are you injured?" Xiao Ding immediately changed his smile and greeted him with concern. Not only him, but also the leader of the barbarians such as Duan Gao, were also very friendly and caring at this time, and asked about Li Ling's situation.

Although Li Ling is not very high in his status, he is a court official at least. If this really happens in southern Yunnan, especially when he is harmed by evil people in front of them, these people are still quite troublesome, so they naturally have to show some concern now.

"Thank you for your concern, the official was not injured." Li Ling said, and bowed to Xiao Ding again, "I would like to thank the Marquis for his words of protection and for letting Senior Xiao help him."

Xiao Ding smiled and said, "It's all we should do. By the way, where is my brother and others?" In front of these colleagues and opponents who are well-informed, he had no intention of hiding Xiao Qian's relationship with him.

"Senior Xiao... has been sent to the doctor for treatment because of his serious injury." Li Ling answered truthfully.

"What?" Xiao Ding was no longer calm now, and he stood up from his seat. Not only him, but many people present also showed incredible expressions. It was a scattered sap in the south of the world, and it was difficult for the opponent to have a powerful presence in the entire southern Yunnan and the entire southwest. How could he be so injured?

"Don't worry, my father, uncle just lost too much blood and had no worries about his life." Xiao Chengzhi quickly explained, which made everyone feel a little calmer.

However, Xiao Ding's surprise still existed and murmured: "How could this be so? Is a group of remnants of Huntian Army actually capable of this? Even my elder brother would be injured by them..." The concern was a mess, and he obviously forgot the clues he had already mastered before.

Li Ling hurriedly explained: "Marty, it was not the remnants of the Huntian Army that injured Senior Xiao, but Shao Qiuxi from the Luotian Sect."

This made him stunned for a moment, and then he became angry: "It's them again. This time, there were several chaos in southern Yunnan, and the shadow of the Luotian Sect. This time he even reached his hand on my head. Is it really an enemy of my entire southern Yunnan?" When he said this, his eyes quickly swept across the other people.

The faces of these leaders of various races are not good-looking. Although the Luotian Sect used to only cause trouble in the Central Plains, they knew their nature at their level, so they naturally felt annoyed and worried. Duan Siyu even snorted coldly: "Luotian Sect, their appetite and courage are getting bigger and bigger. Do you really think that I can't do anything to them in the southwest?"

"Everyone, I thought about this matter early in the morning. Now it is the most dangerous time for all parties in southern Yunnan. There are remnants of the Huntian Army inside, and there are Luotian Sect trying to use insidious means to attack us. If we just plot against each other as before, we become a ball of sand and defeat them one by one, I am afraid that it won't take long to finally fall into the hands of these insidious villains in southern Yunnan!

"Everyone, we have indeed had conflicts over the years, but at this time, the enemy is in front of us, and we should unite and eliminate the enemy first!" Xiao Ding said, his eyes swept over these people one by one, and his expression had become extremely solemn.

In fact, this time he came to Chuxiong for this purpose. He had mentioned similar statements several times before, but they were beaten up by them. Until this time, when he mentioned this matter again, these guys with different thoughts finally showed deep thoughts.

If only a remnant of the Huntian Army was stirring up the wind and rain there, they were still happy to watch. However, when the Luotian Sect, the omnipotent Luotian Sect, and the Luotian Sect who was able to assassinate Dingxi Hou in public, everyone felt threatened and dared not watch it on the wall at will.

The reason why Dingxi Hou was able to escape the assassination this time was because he was prepared and had high martial arts skills. But as for them, if those guys used the same means to deal with them, even if they were arrogant, they could only admit that they would probably be killed.

"What Dingxi Hou said is that we can no longer let them be so unscrupulous, we must fight back!" The first person to speak was a leader from the small village, and then other people with similar identities followed. Finally, everyone's eyes fell on the two people with the most weight, Duan Siyu and Gao Wenyi.

The two of them also subconsciously exchanged their eyes, and finally Duan Siyu said in a deep voice: "Marquis Dingxi, everyone is worried about it. We must join forces this time. If we continue to be so messy in southern Yunnan, it will only damage ourselves and make those sinister villains free! Then join forces and dig out all these guys first and eliminate them!"

"It's decided!" Gao Wenyi also slapped the table and made the final confirmation.

Li Ling stood at the bottom and felt excited. I thought Luo Tian Sect and others would never have expected that this thorn that he was taking risks would have such consequences, which actually led to the cooperation of various forces in southern Yunnan, which were originally in charge!
