In the center of the hall stood a man wearing a golden dragon robe.

Tang Chengnian took a closer look, only to realize that this man was really wearing a dragon robe.

What a rare hobby.

The man in the golden dragon robe was the only person in this room besides her and He Wu. Come to think of it, this man named Feng Jian was the Lord of Yingtian City, right?

Sure enough, He Wu took a few steps quickly, passed Tang Chengnian and knelt down to Feng Jian: "City Master, she is the person you want to see."

The golden dragon robe that Feng Jian was wearing had two extremely wide sleeves, and when she waved it, she suspected that she heard the wind.

"You are Tang Chengnian?"

Feng Jian obviously came prepared and had already inquired about her.

In order to earn his reputation, Tang Chengnian never concealed his real name, maybe he left it in the inn when he entered the city, but it was not difficult for Feng Jian to inquire about it.If he is a city lord who manages his town well, then naturally there are many channels to get the news he wants to know.

Tang Chengnian was not surprised, he nodded readily, and replied, "That's right, my name is Tang Chengnian."

"You look very calm, don't you wonder why I'm looking for you?"

"The city lord must have his own reasons, I believe you will explain." Tang Chengnian didn't get confused because of Feng Jian's words like this, she knew very well in her heart that the more people in this position, the more mysterious and mysterious their words are.

She doesn't need to be smart in front of this kind of person, he will explain it naturally.

Tang Chengnian had never seen an NPC who didn't explain - this was the key to her confidence.

Feng Jian really laughed out loud: "Miss Tang, you are indeed as wonderful as you are!"

Tang Chengnian was even more convinced that Feng Jian didn't call her because of something in front of the city gate, there must be something else.

What did she do in Yingtian City?

Could it be... Roadless Arena?Golden spirit magic machine?

Tang Chengnian clenched his heart tightly. It seems that it was probably because of that.

Sure enough, as she expected, Feng Jian opened his mouth, talking about the event that surprised countless people last night.

"Miss Tang, did you see the mess yesterday?"

Tang Chengnian knew that he had come prepared, so there was no need to lie.She nodded readily and admitted, "Yes, I was at the scene last night."

She was so honest that she interrupted Feng Jian's position.

Feng Jian showed surprise, and said, "Miss Tang, you actually admitted it directly?"

"If you lie in front of the city lord, you're just pretending to be smart. I haven't done any big things in Yingtian City. The only thing is yesterday. If it wasn't for that thing, I can't think of any reason why you would invite me to see you." You." Tang Chengnian's voice was melodious and crisp, not deep or sharp, it was a moderate voice, but this girlish voice matched her appearance very well, so it wouldn't surprise anyone.

Coupled with her confident expression, Feng Jian was even more satisfied.

"My opinion of you is about to change. I thought I had already overestimated you, but unexpectedly, I still underestimated you by [-] percent." Feng Jian liked Tang Chengnian's straightforward personality, and he didn't mix it up when he talked about serious matters. Miscellaneous and unclear, it also avoids some troublesome problems.

Facing Feng Jian's praise, Tang Chengnian was neither arrogant nor impetuous, and just said lightly: "The city lord is absurd."

She paused, and seeing that Feng Jian didn't speak, she asked again: "What does the city lord want to know from me?"

"If you want me to say, of course it is all of them! But I also understand that everyone has their own little secret, and you are not from Yingtiancheng, and you may have your own identity. It’s really too aggressive, but it’s too rude.” Feng Jian put his hands behind his back, raised his head slightly, thought for a while, and then said, “Well, let me ask you a few things, you Think about it before deciding whether to answer me or not."

With Tang Chengnian's cooperation, Feng Jian naturally didn't want to lose his status.

"Okay, then please ask the city lord." Tang Chengnian didn't hesitate at all when he said this.

Feng Jian thought about it in his mind, and pondered the first question: "The key person who destroyed the secret room of the Wulu Arena last night, was it you?"

Tang Chengnian smiled and said, "Yes, it's me."

This was saving people, not harming them. Tang Chengnian didn't need to hide it, otherwise, he would appear guilty.

"You saved a lot of people yesterday, and many forces owe you favors." Feng Jian also laughed.

Tang Chengnian said: "That's nothing. I did that first to save my two companions."

When talking about his companions, He Wu suddenly thought of something, and said a few words to Feng Jian.

Although Feng Jian didn't do it too conspicuously, he froze for a moment, so Tang Chengnian immediately saw that he was listening to someone else's voice transmission.There is no fourth person here, it is not her, of course it is He Wu.Come to think of it, He Wu told Feng Jian that one of the people she saved was Hu Rongmou, right?She noticed that He Wu respected Hu Rongmou very much, but it seemed that they were meeting for the first time. After thinking about it, the problem still lies in the faint mark on Hu Rongmou's left face.

Maybe it's because the Hu family has some special status in Yunze Continent?

After listening to He Wu's report, Feng Jian was shocked, but quickly recovered his calm expression.He said calmly: "No matter what your purpose is, you have indeed saved many people, and they should still thank you. Many people have asked me for your name and want to thank you."

In fact, what Feng Jian said was meant as a warning.

It meant that if Tang Chengnian didn't cooperate at all, he might "accidentally" reveal her name.

But Tang Chengnian suddenly showed an excited expression: "Then did you tell them my name?"

Feng Jian said: "Not yet."

So Tang Chengnian showed a very disappointed expression.

Feng Jian was speechless. Wouldn't it be disappointing for her not to tell those people her name?Did she even know what trouble she was getting into?Can't wait for people to know their real name?Aren't you afraid of being found?Or is the name Tang Chengnian a fake name?For a moment, countless thoughts flashed through Feng Jian's mind.

He did not match this name with the identity of Tang Xuanqi's daughter.

In "Ba Zhi Yunze", Tang Xuanqi is the protagonist, with a halo of the protagonist. Although there are many monks who transform into gods in Yunze Continent, he is still regarded as the most popular in the limelight by default.Also because he is young, and because he is the name he typed.

However, Tang Chengnian is now on the plot line of "The Overlord of Clouds 2". After Wen Liaoxiang, the main character of the sequel, died, the plot line has undergone earth-shaking changes. Indulging in the reputation of Potian Leisheng——as everyone knows, he has been forgotten by Yunze Continent.In the world of comprehension, old people will soon be replaced by new people. Unless they really leave a deep mark in the history of a continent, otherwise, everyone will inevitably be forgotten.

To be more realistic, the identity of Tang Xuanqi's daughter no longer attracted much attention, so Feng Jian did not associate the name Tang Chengnian with Tang Xuanqi at all.He only thought of a person with the same name that he heard about not long ago, No.2 of the alchemy competition.

Feng Jian asked, "Have you ever been to the Medicine Capital?"

Tang Chengnian thought for a while, and immediately thought of what Feng Jian wanted to ask.

"Yes, I have been there, and I was lucky enough to get No.2 not long ago."

She is only 19 years old! ?

Feng Jian didn't know much about the inside story of the alchemy competition, but he still knew what he should know.

As the lord of a city, he is not the kind of person who stays in a corner.Feng Jian couldn't help but began to doubt the identity of Tang Chengnian in front of him. Is she really that Tang Chengnian?Does she have any other purpose in showing off her name in such a hurry?Feng Jian remembered that recently there was a person in the city lord's mansion who had just returned from the medicine city. This person was sent to participate in the alchemy competition, but unfortunately it was only a round trip.

He immediately ordered Hewu to ask in a low voice, and Hewu took the order and walked out.

Tang Chengnian didn't care, she also thought that Feng Jian would be suspicious, but it didn't matter, she was not afraid of the shadow slanting, if Feng Jian really had any witnesses, they could prove her identity.In order to earn his reputation, Tang Chengnian was not afraid of making publicity.

"Miss Tang looks very young, she is really amazing to have won so many honors." Before knowing the real situation, Feng Jian just praised casually.However, the woman in front of her who claimed to be Tang Chengnian did destroy the underground secret room of the Wulu Arena last night and saved many people. Feng Jian continued to ask about this matter, "Have you encountered any strange things?"

"weird stuff?"

"Ah."

Tang Chengnian thought about it.

Feng Jian would not ask her meaningless questions. In order to confirm the truth, he would inevitably ask something he knew the answer to.If she lied about a question he knew the answer to, he couldn't help doubting everything she said next.Now what Tang Chengnian wanted to think about was whether Feng Jian knew the answer to this question, and how much he knew.

This strange thing refers to the stone pillar?Forging master?Forging pool?still……

Golden Spirit Divine Machine!

That's the thing that gets the most attention in this conspiracy.

Tang Chengnian heard several wonderful stories from Hu Rongmou, but if what he told was not a story, it meant that most people's attention would be attracted by the Golden Spirit Machine.After all, it is a very terrifying artifact, with super powerful attack power, no one can ignore it.If Feng Jian's people were the first to arrive at the scene, they would definitely discover the existence of the Golden Spirit God Machine.

Although she destroyed it, it wouldn't make it less threatening.

And what if she lied?Saying that she didn't encounter anything strange, would Feng Jian suspect that she had other purposes?
For example... private possession.

If a person has doubts, it will be difficult to dispel them.

But this question can't be as straightforward as before. A liar doesn't have to stutter, and answering too quickly can also make people suspicious.Tang Chengnian sighed secretly in her heart, she clearly wanted to tell the truth, but she still had to care about so much.
