At this moment, the person who appeared, who else could it be but the City Lord of Ciran City?
Previously, when speaking to Yue Xiao, he could only turn a blind eye, not daring to openly promise anything. As for these City Guards, that could only be considered their personal behavior. Although if things succeeded, he would certainly benefit greatly from it.
But if they failed, he wouldn't have lost anything.
But now, things were different.
Li Chen was obviously not someone easy to provoke, possibly even a terrifyingly powerful warrior. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to subdue Yue Xiao without any resistance.
And then easily killed him like slaughtering a chicken.
Yue Xiao's death didn't concern him, but if these City Guards died, then it would be a big deal.
Though they were just ordinary guards, they represented the authority of Ciran City. If the City Guards all died and he, as the City Lord, didn't stand up, how could he continue to wield power in Ciran City?
