Super Godly Machine Army

Confrontation

“Let me think about it,” Zhang Ling suddenly said.

“You…” Yang Zike was shocked.

“You have an idea?” Jiang Li raised his eyebrows and asked.

“Dugu Huangcheng doesn’t know I betrayed him and still trusts me. I can get those herbs out when I have the chance,” Zhang Ling said.

“Haha, great. I’ll wait for your good news.” Jiang Li smiled.

“Jiang Li, I hope you’ll keep your promise,” Zhang Ling said.

“Don’t worry,” Jiang Li nodded and said.

“When are you planning to do it?” Jiang Li suddenly asked.

“As soon as possible.” Yang Zike replied. He didn’t specify an exact time. “I’ll send someone to notify you by then.”

“Then, you have to bring the herbs to me quickly. I won’t do anything until I get them back,” Jiang Li shrugged and said.

“Hm!” Yang Zike grunted and left.

“Goodbye.” Zhang Ling also left.

“Haha…” Jiang Li looked at them and remained silent.

“Master, do you really believe what they said?” Wang Yan asked.

“Who knows?” Jiang Li didn’t answer the question.

In fact, Jiang Li didn’t know if he could trust Zhang Ling and Yang Zike. After all, he just knew one side of the story. However, after knowing what happened and getting some information. Dugu Huangcheng was indeed suspicious.

“Humans, monsters,” Jiang Li mumbled. “I should read something about the history of this world. There’s no information about that in my memories.”

Half an hour later, Jiang Li asked Ma Han to bring him a history book called “Brief World History.” He went back to his bedroom with the book and started reading quietly.

It was already four in the morning when he finished reading the book.

According to this “Brief World History,” the world was called the Super Fantasy World and there were six races in total, including the Humans, Monsters, Barbarians, Demons, Gods and Ghosts.

The Demons and Gods were the most powerful. The Ghosts lived in Hell. And the Humans, Monsters and Barbarians kept fighting against each other on the continents. There was a feud between them which couldn’t be solved.

This was the current situation of the entire world.

Of course, “Brief World History” was only a general book, so Jiang Li couldn’t get much information from it. He would have to go deep into it himself if he wanted to know something more detailed.

Besides, the book didn’t talk about which of the three races, the Humans, Monsters and Barbarians, was more powerful. There was also just a short description about the Demons, Gods and Ghosts.

Jiang Li put down the book and went to sleep.

The next day he woke up early, feeling energetic after sleeping for a few hours. With the help of Xiao Hua, Jiang Li had his breakfast and started practicing the Raging Bear Paw in the courtyard. Since his vital energy was unstable, he couldn’t take any pills. Besides, Jiang Li hadn’t taken the ten-year Red Fruit either.

He spent the whole morning practicing.

At noon Wang Long and the others got back. And yet, they were stopped by the City Guards when they entered the city. Jiang Li immediately sent someone there after receiving the news from XX02.

The members of the Sirius Gang confronted the City Guards at the city gates.

People around were watching.

“Jiang Li.” Hao Tian came up in armor.

“Commander Hao Tian,” Jiang Li said.

“Why? Are you going to fight with the City Guards? You’ve got balls. Do you know what it’ll cost you?” Hao Tian grunted and said.

“And the City Guards can stop people without a reason?” Jiang Li asked.

“Commander, we suspect that they’re taking the Monsters into the city,” a guard at the gates said.

“The Monsters.” Hao Tian became serious. “What’s that about, Chief Jiang?”

Jiang Li didn’t say a word and looked at Wang Long. The things on the carriage they were pulling were mostly herbs. However, that monster was also hidden under the carriage.

“Bullshit. There’s no such thing,” Jiang Li said.

“Then, let our men search the carriage. Is that alright?” Hao Tian said slowly.

“Why?” Jiang Li snickered, “You can search people’s carriage whenever you want? The Sirius Gang will be humiliated. There are so many people here and you only stopped my men. Are you trying to make trouble with the Sirius Gang?”

“It’s our job,” Hao Tian said.

“I think you’re looking for trouble,” Jiang Li yelled.

“Search it!” Hao Tian waved.

“How dare you!” Jiang Li yelled.

Clomp, clomp. The meches immediately rushed ahead and protected Wang Long and the others. Dozens of meches stood together coldly and fiercely.

Meanwhile, the few hundred members of the Sirius Gang also picked up their weapons.

The atmosphere became intense.

“Gulp!” People around swallowed hard.

“Jiang Li,” Hao Tian said seriously.

There were only a few hundred City Guards at the gates, but Jiang Li had a few hundred members of the Sirius Gang and also his meches with him. If they really had to fight. Hao Tian would be at a disadvantage.

Of course, if they started fighting, the guards in Yongan City would come to back them up as fast as possible. There would be more than ten thousand soldiers. By then, no matter if Jiang Li won or not, he would have to run from Yongan City and leave the land of the Qian Dynasty.

According to the laws of the Qian Dynasty, attacking the City Guards of the City Lord Mansion was regarded as “treason” and was a “capital offence.”

“That’s enough. Stop.” Suddenly Yang Zike appeared. “Commander Hao Tian, why do you have to make a fuss about a small thing?”

“My Lord.” Hao Tian bowed and said respectfully, “This isn’t a small thing. It’s about the safety of Yongan City. It’ll be really dangerous if Jiang Li’s men bring the Monsters into the city.” Hao Tian explained.

...

“Haha, Commander Hao Tian, don’t worry. Chief Jiang would never work with the Monsters,” Yang Zike smiled and said.

“What?” Hao Tian was startled. The government office was the one who said that Jiang Li colluded with the Monsters before, and now they were saying that he would never do so.

“My Lord, don’t joke about it,” Hao Tian said.

“Commander Hao Tian, I’m the State Lord. Although you’re under the command of the City Lord, does what I said mean nothing to you?” Yang Zike yelled, “Would I joke about the safety of Yongan City?”

“I’m sorry.” Hao Tian glanced at Jiang Li and waved his hand. “Let them go.”

“Yes.” The guards nodded and backed away.

“Let’s go.” Jiang Li didn’t say anything else and left with everyone.

“They left just like that.”

“I can’t believe the State Lord came and helped him.”

“Didn’t the government office suspect Jiang Li not long before? Why did the State Lord help Jiang Li today? What’s happening?”

“I don’t know.”

...

“I feel like something big is going to happen.”

People around talked to one another with worried faces.

…

On the top floor of a building far away, Dugu Huangcheng stood where he could see the city gates. He saw everything that happened just then, but he didn’t go there.

“Father.” Dugu Luo entered slowly in a blue men’s outfit.

“Luo, you’re here,” Dugu Huangcheng turned around and said.

“Hm.” Dugu Huangcheng looked up and said excitedly, “Father, I’ve talked to the City Lord of Pingding City. I believe we’ll be able to defeat the Monsters and the Red Eyebrow Empire.”
