Chapter 171 - Arrest at the Inn
Chapter 171 Arrest at the Inn
Lu Zhiheng brought the leaders of Yellow Clouds City to the inn.
With a wave of his hand, the attendants behind him spread out and surrounded the inn.
Lu Yuxiang gave his subordinate a look.
The subordinate understood and shouted at the inn.
“Jiang Ping, you are surrounded. Hurry up and come out and surrender.”
Jiang Ping didn’t come out.
The guests in the inn were shocked.
The inn was in an uproar.
The waiter walked out of the inn and wanted to see who was causing trouble in front of his door.
When he saw the crowd, the waiter’s arrogant and domineering stance was immediately switched to him bending down.
“Gentlemen, this is a small business. Let’s talk it out.”
The guard who shouted just now stepped forward and grabbed the waiter’s collar.
He scolded him angrily.
“You, go and call Jiang Ping out.”
“Otherwise, not only this inn, even you will
die.”
Then, he pushed him away.
The waiter hurriedly ran into the inn.
He first went up to the second floor and knocked on Jiang Ping’s door.
As he knocked, he shouted.
“Darn it, Jiang Ping, who did you offend?”
“You’ve put me in trouble.”
After Jiang Ping opened the door, he looked calm.
Then, he glared at the waiter.
The waiter’s heart skipped a beat.
Then he said.
“Well, Jiang… There’s someone outside looking for trouble with you.”
Jiang Ping nodded.
Then he walked downstairs.
When the waiter saw Jiang Ping go out, he quickly found a water tank in the inn, poured the water out, and then went in to hide.
He couldn’t run away, but now the outside was surrounded. This scared waiter thought he should hide if he could.
As for whether his boss knew that the inn was in danger, he couldn’t care about it anymore.
Jiang Ping walked down the stairs one step at a time.
Then he stood at the entrance of the inn under everyone’s gaze.
Jiang Ping looked around the crowd, and finally, his gaze stopped on Lu Yuxiang.
Lu Yuxiang felt a little guilty, so he didn’t dare to look at Jiang Ping.
Seeing this, Jiang Ping sneered.
“Sect Master Lu, it’s not fair to do things like this, right?”
Lu Zhiheng was a little confused. Why would Jiang Ping say such a strange thing? Of course, Lu Yuxiang wouldn’t lead the trouble to himself.
So he explained.
“What? Your identity is strange. Can’t I send people to investigate you?”
Jiang Ping squinted at Lu Yuxiang. Although Lu Yuxiang was facing him, he still didn’t dare to look at him.
Then, Jiang Ping smiled and said loudly.
“What a good trick, Sect Master Lu.”
Lu Zhiheng didn’t understand what the two were talking about at all, but Lu Zhiheng was cautious.
What he was thinking now was to take down the young man in front of him first, then turn back and carefully investigate Lu Yuxiang.
At this time, Lu Yuxiang was also fanning the flames.
“Mayor, don’t talk to him anymore. We don’t know if he has a backup plan, so let’s end it as soon as possible to avoid future trouble…”
Lu Zhiheng was already suspicious of Lu Yuxiang, so he reached out his hand to stop him from continuing. “Do I need you to say it!” Zhou Nan, the sect master of the Red Robe Gang, heard the conversation between Jiang Ping and Lu Yuxiang.
Then, because of Lu Yuxiang’s abnormal behavior today.
He couldn’t help but have some doubts.
However, he understood Lu Zhiheng’s personality. If he said that Lu Yuxiang had a problem, he would only be scolded by Lu Zhiheng.
In any case, Lu Zhiheng only wanted to take down Jiang Ping.
He just had to help him capture Jiang Ping, and then he could tell Lu Zhiheng what he was thinking.
Lu Zhiheng looked at Jiang Ping and said.
“Brother Jiang, I’m sorry to offend you. It’s just that my men saw your strange behavior today.”
“So, we have to ask you to come with us.”
“Don’t worry. You’re just a guest at my residence. If the truth comes out, and it has nothing to do with you.”
“Our Yellow Clouds City will definitely compensate you.”
Jiang Ping sneered. “A guest? What kind of guest?”
“Don’t tell me you want me to go to your mayor’s mansion and put me under house arrest?”
Lu Zhiheng said.
“Brother Jiang, don’t worry. We will definitely treat you well.”
“The food is no worse than the food in the inn, and you can have a beautiful woman to accompany you.”
Lu Zhiheng only said that he would not mistreat Jiang Ping, but he did not deny the matter of house arrest. He just avoided mentioning it.
Because according to Lu Zhiheng’s idea, after he brought Jiang Ping back, he would definitely seal his cultivation.
Otherwise, if he placed an earth immortal realm under house arrest, perhaps one day, his mayor’s mansion would be turned upside down.
As long as Jiang Ping’s cultivation was sealed, everything would be fine.
Jiang Ping could clearly see that the mayor of Yellow Clouds City had some ulterior motives.
He asked with a smile.
“What if I don’t go?”
Lu Zhiheng also answered with a smile.
“There will be a way for you to go.”
“Oh?” Jiang Ping said meaningfully.
At this time, the scum Lu Yuxiang spoke again.
“Mayor, Jiang Ping has his family with him, and he has three daughters.”
“Why don’t we invite his daughters to the mayor’s mansion first?”
When Jiang Ping heard this, the smile on his face disappeared.
He glared at Lu Yuxiang fiercely.
The moment Lu Yuxiang made eye contact with Jiang Ping, he felt a lingering fear in his heart.
A moment later, Lu Yuxiang thought to himself.
He was going to see if Jiang Ping still dared to flaunt his power after he was done absorbing the spiritual energy in his body.
Lu Zhiheng looked inside the inn with interest.
He could see the second floor from the door.
In a room on the second floor, there was a crack in the door, and three heads poked out.
The three little girls had already woken up.
Their first reaction when they heard the noise outside was definitely curious.
So, they all poked their heads out to take a look.
The little girls had just taken their first look.
Lei Jingyun walked over and blocked the three little girls’ line of sight.
He pushed the door open, and after entering, he dragged the three little girls back to the bed.
Then, the door was shut tightly.
“Why aren’t the three of you sleeping?”
Wan’er pointed outside.
“It’s too noisy, I can’t sleep.”
Lei Jingyun explained to them.
“Your daddy is busy outside, so you can’t go out and run around.”
The three little girls were about to retort.
Lei Jingyun took out a stick of incense from somewhere and lit it up.
The three little girls couldn’t raise their eyelids after smelling the fragrance.
Lei Jingyun looked at the stick of incense in his hand with a smile.
He murmured.
“It’s quite useful.”
If Jiang Ping was standing in front of Lei Jingyun, he would have noticed that there was something different about Lei Jingyun.
Jiang Ping was a little displeased when he saw the playful look in Lu Zhiheng’s eyes.
“Don’t tell me that the mayor wants to lay his hands on the little girls?”
“That doesn’t fit the mayor’s decent status.”
Lu Zhiheng smiled.
“There’s no need for that. We’re only here for you. Innocent people won’t get involved.”
“I just looked at those three little girls and thought they were cute. I don’t have any other intentions.”
Jiang Ping was a little curious.
“Oh?”
Lu Zhiheng said with a faint smile.
“Because I had a daughter before, but later she…”
