C2223 Ashes City shrouded in dark clouds



C2223 Ashes City shrouded in dark clouds

The plaza of Ember City was packed full of people, it was bustling with noise and excitement.    

    

"Why do we have to follow a past-man? He may be the king, but he is not our king! "    

    

"Yes!" If he suddenly dies, what should we do then? "    

    

"After the old City Lord died, Nightingale's City Lord betrayed the Black Sun Empire and transferred to some other Ghost Empire. Did she ask if we agreed?"    

    

"We can't let her mess around. She must have feelings for that dragon. She will kill us!"    

    

"If we stay here, we can only wait for death. We should leave this place!"    

    

"What are you all waiting for? "Let's go, if we don't leave now, we're dead!"    

    

Some people vented their discontent, some watched from the sidelines, some left, and some stayed silent.    

    

This was the reaction that Nightingale had received from the people of Ember City after she had announced that she had joined them. The originally relatively calm Ember City had fallen into chaos after hearing this news.    

    

"Everyone, quiet down! Hear of me! " Nightingale shouted.    

    

Her voice echoed in the city square, but no one listened to her.    

    

Nightingale looked at Xia Lei, who was standing beside her, her eyes filled with pain and helplessness, "Dragon King, I did what you told me to, but now ? What should I do? I am unable to face the Undead in Master of Lonely-night City. "    

    

Xia Lei said: "Didn't you observe?"    

    

Nightingale was stunned: "Observe what?"    

    

Xia Lei said, "The people who are opposing you are all the nobles and officials of this city. Their lives are luxurious and they do not wish to make any changes. Since you announced that the Ember City has joined the Ghost Empire, they naturally wouldn't be willing to take the lead and oppose you. Furthermore, the people who left were all wealthy merchants, they were worried that the war would destroy their property, so it was normal for them to bring their property and families away from the Ember City. "    

    

"How could I have the heart to observe these things? The city is so chaotic right now, how are we going to deal with the Ming Capital's army? "And ?" There was also Diaro who had the title of Death God. He was unable to say it out because he was afraid.    

    

Xia Lei said: "As a leader, you cannot expect everyone to support you since you can meet all of your needs. Now is the time to see clearly who supports you and to leave so that you can't stay and even if you stay, you will still be opposed to you in the future. Why do you need to force people who can betray you at any time? "    

    

Nightingale was slightly moved, she had never heard such words before.    

    

Xia Lei continued: "Let those who have to leave, those who want to leave, leave behind those who are loyal to you and who view the Ember City as their home. The population of Ember City would indeed decrease, but it would be better managed and developed. As for the military and Diaro that you are worried about, leave them to me. I said before that I would protect you and the Ember City, so I will do it. "    

    

Nightingale finally understood, and she nodded once. She had a feeling that whatever happened next would be easily resolved in the hands of the man beside her. She didn't realize that as she became more and more reliant on Xia Lei, he had also left more and more things in her heart.    

    

"Let me say a few words?" Xia Lei said.    

    

Nightingale nodded, "You are my king, you can do whatever you want."    

    

Xia Lei walked in front of Nightingale, stopped for a moment, and said: "People and soldiers of Ember City, please quiet ? ?"    

    

His voice reverberated through the entire city, shaking everyone's eardrums like a heavy drum. Those close to him even covered their ears. The entire plaza, and even the entire city had become quiet.    

    

Xia Lei continued to speak, "Because of Diaro's unfair judgement, all the soldiers and officers of the Ember City who participated in the battle of the northwest blood-crystal ore would be sent to the capital as slaves and become Diaro's food. I believe that many of those present will lose your sons, your husbands, and your friends. And your city lord Nightingale, a woman who views the Ember City more important than her life, she will be beheaded. I can also predict your future. Even if two hundred thousand of Ember City's soldiers are willing to sacrifice themselves to give you a chance at survival, the Blood City Lord of Lava City will not let you off. You may still be able to live for a few more years, but is there any meaning to that? Do you have the heart to see your children, your husbands, and your friends eaten as food? "    

    

The entire square was silent.    

    

Some were moved, some hesitated, some disdained, and some hated him.    

    

"I won't hide the problem Ember City is facing. An army of five hundred thousand past-man is marching towards Ember City. As for whether Diaro will come, I can't be sure. I can only assure you that as long as I am here, no enemy can step even half a step into Ember City. "That's all I can say, if you are willing to leave, I and Nightingale's City Lord will definitely not stop you. If you are willing to stay, I will provide you with the proper protection."    

    

After a short silence.    

    

"My God, can we defend five hundred thousand soldiers?"    

    

"The army formed by the past-man alone has five hundred thousand. If we add on the army from Ming Du, and if the Azrael Diarro descends on the Ember City ? I can't imagine what the consequences would be! "    

    

"I don't believe that an outsider will provide us any protection. I won't stay here to die!"    

    

"Go?" Can you leave? The Azrael Diarro will not let off anyone who goes against him! "    

    

"That's better than staying here. You can stay here and wait for death. I have to leave anyway!"    

    

More people left.    

    

Some stayed. Without money and with the status of a fugitive, what could he do about leaving this place? In the end, it would be hard for him to escape death, so he might as well stay and fight until death! Fight for a chance of survival!    

    

A few hours later.    

    

City Lord's Mansion    

    

"City Lord, about half of the people have left. The rest are mostly the families of the soldiers and the soldiers, as well as some poor people who have no money. " A high-ranking officer reported the situation to Nightingale.    

    

Nightingale smiled bitterly, "I thought that the entire Ember City would support me, but I didn't expect that half of the people here did not agree with me, and did not treat the Ember City as their home either."    

    

Xia Lei asked: "Are there still people leaving the city?"    

    

The high-ranking officer said, "No, but the fear is still spreading throughout the city. The people that are left behind are all very scared."    

    

Xia Lei said: "Close the city gates, and inform the remaining people to gather at the plaza. I will dispel their fear and give them courage and confidence. "    

    

"Yes." The general who had come to report the situation withdrew.    

    

Nightingale's gaze moved to Xia Lei's face, "Dragon King, I really don't know what to do without you. Your kindness towards me and the Ember City gave me a feeling of carrying a debt, but I don't know how to repay you. Tell me, what do you need? "    

    

Xia Lei waved his hand, "I don't want anything in return."    

    

Nightingale said: "Do you want me to owe you for the rest of my life?"    

    

Xia Lei suddenly had a headache, "There's really no need for this, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's go to the plaza."    

    

At this moment, a blue figure suddenly appeared. It opened its mouth and said, "He needs your milk."    

    

"Huh?" Nightingale was stunned.    

    

Xia Lei almost fell off his chair because of Shenyue Ruyi's words. He was now certain that there was a problem with Shenyue Ruyi's way of speaking, and it was a huge problem at that!    

    

"He's just embarrassed to say it. His evolution, his ability comes from a woman's breast. Different women have different milk, and the milk of a woman like you with the Son of God gene is more precious to him than anything else. If you want to repay her, then give her milk. There's no better way to repay her than this. " Shenyue Ruyi said it out loud in one breath.    

    

Nightingale was still dumbstruck.    

    

Xia Lei was already so embarrassed that he wanted to dodge.    

    

Shenyue Ruyi added on, "Hmm, am I making myself clear?"    

    

"I know your head, Nightingale, don't listen to nonsense, I didn't say that." Xia Lei stood up and walked towards the door. As he passed by Shenyue Ruyi, he added, "I knew you would cause trouble for me!"    

    

Shenyue Ruyi's mouth revealed a strange smile, and his voice was soft, "It's too embarrassing to say it, so I helped you say it out, but in your heart, you're actually grateful to me, right?"    

    

Xia Lei, "..."    

    

The front and back of Shenyue Ruyi's body instantly changed, his feet floated up, and lightly caught up to Xia Lei's footsteps, "There's also that Cai Ling, I've already persuaded her, she also agreed, that you can find her at any time, and have her give birth to your milk."    

    

"You, you ?" Xia Lei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. There were some things that were difficult for him to say, but it was easier for her to avoid awkwardness when she said them. It was a good thing for him, but why did he have a strange feeling?    

    

Shenyue Ruyi said, "You guys are like this. You guys clearly want to do it, but you still pretend to be serious, and at the same time saying that I just want to protect you, help you, and not return the favor.    

    

Xia Lei was actually at a loss for words.    

    

"I have to return the favor. Arrange for me to get dressed as soon as possible, okay?" Shenyue Ruyi's voice was imploring.    

    

"Alright!" Xia Lei said snappily.    

    

The corner of Shenyue Ruyi's mouth quirked up into a smile. She hadn't noticed that the number of times she had expressed his positive feelings since he had gotten dressed had increased, but it had not affected her energy structure at all. Wasn't wearing something like that a form of evolution for her? It's just that the things you drink are different.    

    

Xia Lei and Shenyue Ruyi disappeared from the entrance, but Nightingale was still sitting in her chair in a daze. My Milk... Isn't it my husband who can eat? Is he proposing to me? "    

    

If Xia Lei heard this, he would definitely vomit blood.    

    

It was hard for other men to marry, but he was the opposite. He was worried that he would be too busy.    

    

The gates of Ember City were closed, and the troops who received the notice all gathered in the plaza. Although they had the courage to stay, the fear brought about by the five hundred thousand strong army and Azrael Diarro was still lingering in their hearts.    

    

Could the Dragon King and Nightingale protect the city, protect them?    

    

Actually, not many people believed it.
