Tianlei City (3)

As soon as Chu Qing’s group of three landed, they were personally received by Lei Guang, the city lord of Tianlei City.

Facing Lei Guang, Chu Qing looked polite on the surface, but his words always showed an attitude of arrogance, intentionally or unintentionally.

Lei Guang has been in charge of Tianlei City for many years, and he is also an old man with a lot of experience, so how could he not hear the contempt in Chu Qing’s words? It’s just that the current matter is very important, so although he is dissatisfied, he can only force a smile and outwardly show respect to Chu Qing.

In order to serve this “leader” well, Lei Guang hosted a banquet for Chu Qing at his City Lord Mansion, and the banquet was full of rare delicacies.

Chu Qing and the two girls ate heartily at the banquet.

After drinking for three rounds, Chu Qing smiled at Lei Guang while slowly picking up the dishes. He then began, “Master Lei, we are old acquaintances, you are so polite to me, it makes me feel a little uneasy!”

Lei Guang couldn’t help but twitch the corner of his mouth when he heard this. Uneasy? With Chu Qing’s audacity, he really cannot see it.

Lei Guang quickly said, “Brother Chu, what are you talking about? You are the leader of our alliance. If I am not polite to you, who should I be polite to? Do you think this is unreasonable?”

Chu Qing sighed, and said, “City lord Lei, do you really think I’m still the leader of the alliance? If I’m really the leader, why is there no one willing to listen to me these days?”

Lei Guang secretly thought to himself in contempt, ‘Just because people are calling you the leader, do you really regard yourself as the emperor?’

Their alliance, in the final analysis, is nothing more than a loose interest group.

It is also a matter of course that the alliance will be scattered once all benefits are gone.

As for Chu Qing, he was just chosen by them to block the spear, to be pushed out as a scapegoat at critical moments.

However, looking at Chu Qing’s posture, it seems that until now, he has not felt that there is anything wrong with his own status.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but take a look at Gu Sheng who had been sitting silently to the left of Chu Qing. Gu Sheng is a smart woman with proper delicateness and temperament, maybe she has already noticed it. Yet she didn’t say anything to Chu Qing, so there might be something to be said about it.

So Lei Guang pretended to sigh and said, “Brother Chu, you don’t know something. After the great battle that day, our aristocratic families were busy with a lot of trivial matters after the war. The trivial matters are not a big issue by itself, but there are thousands of them, making things complicated and turning things into a mess. Just when everything was finally dealt with, Feng Shao suddenly appeared, causing a lot of trouble while carrying some strange weapon. Later, the Tiangang Sword Sect brazenly launched a war against us, which made us burnt out even more.”

Speaking of this, Lei Guang said with a bitter face, “Brother Chu, to be honest, the Tiangang Sword Sect has a large number of people, and we really can’t handle them. For the current plan, we can only choose to hold together to keep warm, especially when confronted by the Tiangang Sword Sect!”

Lei Guang’s words directly shifted the topic to Feng Shao and Tiangang Sword Sect.

Because he knew that Chu Qing had always been narrow-minded, and if anyone made him suffer, he would have to kill the whole family.

As for Feng Shao and the Tiangang Sword Sect, they were the reasons Chu Qing suffered two big losses.

Chu Qing must have hated Feng Shao and the Tiangang Sword Sect to the bone.

Sure enough, upon hearing these two names, Chu Qing’s face darkened immediately, and he said through gritted teeth, “That Feng Shao and the Tiangang Sword Sect really bullied me, Chu Qing! They look down on me and think that I have nothing! I, Chu Qing, swear that I will destroy them sooner or later!”

The corner of Lei Guang’s mouth couldn’t help but twitch. For a moment, he didn’t know how to answer this. Wanting to destroy Wuling City sounds a little tricky, but saying that one would destroy the Tiangang Sword Sect is purely a joke!

However, Lei Guang would not attack Chu Qing’s self-confidence at this time.

And out of the need for Chu Qing to come out to carry the banner of the alliance, he had to hold Chu Qing in his arms to make Chu Qing full of confidence.

As soon as he rolled his eyes, he followed Chu Qing’s intentions, slapped the table, and put on a posture filled with righteous indignation, “Brother Chu is right! Who is Feng Shao? How dare he cause trouble in Beizhou when he’s not even from here? He’s nothing more than a living thing that can’t wait to die!”

Afterward, he patted his chest again, and he said with a reassuring tone, “Brother Chu, don’t worry! I, Lei Guang, together with Tianlei City, will definitely vent your anger for you!”
