Reborn as a fiend statue

After the rebels began to attack the city, Yundie and her imperial guards were pinned down and could no longer focus on the situation inside the city.

When Mu Yuansheng heard the shouts of killing outside the city, he smiled and said, "The time has finally arrived."

Xue Changming laughed and said: "Haha, Brother Mu is right. Neither Luan Fengyi nor Mr. Yu would have expected that we would take action at this moment."

…

Inside the city lord's palace.

A soldier ran into the hall in panic.

"Report...Master Yu, the palace is surrounded by people from the Xue family and the Mu family. They are using the banner of Qingjun to demand Master Yu to plead guilty."

Yu Yi asked: "Where are the city defense troops?"

"The city defense troops are nowhere to be seen."

"Go on, you know."

"Have the careerists finally given up?"

…

Boom...

The palace gate was blown open, and a large number of soldiers poured into the palace.

The meeting hall was not spared and was surrounded.

Tap tap tap...

Mu Yuansheng and Xue Changming, surrounded by officials from their respective factions and a large number of guards, walked into the hall with dragon and tiger steps.

Some officials in the palace were also confused and did not understand why the Xue family and Mu family would rebel at this moment.

Don't the two family heads know that there are more than 100,000 rebels outside the city?

The rebels haven't invaded yet, so why did our own people get into chaos first?

"Xue Changming, Mu Yuansheng, what do you mean?" an official loudly accused.

After a brief moment of panic, an old official immediately ordered: "Whoever comes, hurry up and notify General City Guard to return to the palace to defend the palace. In addition, send someone to notify General Yundie and send some imperial guards to return for reinforcements."

Yu Yi couldn't help but glance at the old man.

The old man is a branch of the Luan family, named Luan Qiang, and his abilities are quite good.

Mu Yuansheng smiled and said: "Haha... Minister Luan, there is no need to waste your efforts. The palace has been sealed and no flies can fly out.

The city guard general also led five thousand city defense troops to contain the imperial army.

General Yundie not only has to stop the rebels outside the city, but also needs to be on guard against the city defense troops, so he cannot spare any time to come to support."

"You bastards...you..." Luan Qiang was so angry that he blew his beard and stared.

All the civil and military officials present were worried and their faces changed.

Many people are already secretly calculating in their hearts which side to take.

"Haha... Family Master Mu and Family Master Xue finally couldn't hide their ambitions and want to replace the Lord of the City?"

Yu Yi couldn't help but be sarcastic.

Mu Yuansheng said solemnly: "Mr. Yu, it is already known to the whole world that you have gone against the grain and imprisoned the Lord of the City.

Mu hates outsiders controlling the Qingluan tribe and wants to bring order to the chaos. Is it wrong?"

"Pa bang bang..."

Crisp applause echoed in the hall.

Luan Fengyi walked out from behind the screen with light steps.

"Mu Aiqing is sincere."

"Lord City Lord."x                    

When the civil and military officials in the main hall saw Luan Fengyi's appearance, they all saluted.

Mu Yuansheng's face looked ugly.

He knew Luan Fengyi would appear, but he didn't expect it to be so early.

Luan Fengyi sat on the throne of the city lord, looking down at the people in the hall: "This city lord is not imprisoned. Everything Mr. Yu does is under my instructions.

Mu Aiqing, Xue Aiqing, the misunderstanding has been resolved, can you ask the private soldiers of each family to withdraw from the hall?"

Xue Changming sneered and said: "Sir City Lord, you obey the advice of an outsider. I have reason to suspect that you have been controlled by Mr. Yu using some secret method and have become a puppet."

Yu Yi mocked: "Haha...it's really funny. The heads of the Xue family and the Mu family said before that I imprisoned the Lord of Luan City and wanted to rescue the Lord.

After the city lord showed up, the two of them made excuses, saying that she was controlled by me.

If you want to oust the Lord of the City, just say so. Why do you need to make such vulgar excuses?

The so-called teachers are famous, but they are just deceiving themselves and others, and they will only make me look down on you."

Xue Changming was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, "You... Mr. Yu is really sharp-tongued. Now that the situation is over, haven't you thought about the consequences?"

Yu Yi smiled playfully and said: "What are the consequences? Of course you know it. The heads of the Xue family and the Mu family have taken control of the palace, and have allowed the rebels to contain the imperial guards. They are almost certain to win."

As the treacherous villain you call me, I will naturally not end well.

Now I am very curious, after the two ousted the city lords, who will be the new city lord?

Yu doesn’t believe that the two family heads are so magnanimous that they can give up the throne of city lord to their allies.”

When Xue Changming and Mu Yuansheng heard this, their expressions changed.

As Yu Yi said, there is only one city lord throne, but there are two of them.

The Mu family is supported by the Bao Xiong tribe, and the Xue family is supported by the Dragon Wolf tribe.

The two families are almost the same in terms of their own strength and the backers behind them.

No matter how good their relationship is, they will still have their own thoughts when facing the throne of City Lord.

Mu Yuansheng calmed down his expression and said: "Which one of Mu or Brother Xue will be the city lord in the end, I don't need to worry about Mr. Yu."

Yu Yi continued: "Oh? Master Mu is really big-hearted. I heard that the Dragon Wolf Tribe has been making frequent moves recently.

Maybe he is looking for an opportunity to send troops to support the Xue family leader in coming to power."

Mu Yuansheng's expression changed completely, and he glared at Xue Changming: "Brother Xue is a good idea. We had discussed it at the beginning and jointly managed the Qingluan tribe."

Xue Changming sneered: "Hmph...Brother Mu, don't act like a wronged little wife.

Do you think Xue doesn’t know that the Explosive Bear Tribe has been making frequent moves recently?”

Luan Fengyi interjected: "Master Xue, Master Mu, why don't you two have a duel first? When the two families decide the winner, do you want me to give up the position of city lord?"

Mu Yuansheng said disdainfully: "The Lord of the City and Mr. Yu are quite scheming. Do you want Mu and Brother Xue to fight in such a way that both sides suffer, and then take advantage?"

Yu Yi smiled and waved his hands: "Although I think so, I don't have the strength to be a fisherman.

General Yundie was restrained by both the rebels and the city defense army and was unable to escape.

The palace guards were controlled by soldiers from the Mu family and the Xue family.

Even if Lord Luan and I want to make a comeback, we don't have the manpower available.

I just want to see which family ascends to the position of city lord at the end of my life."

Luan Fengyi echoed: "Yes, this city lord and Mr. Yu have the same idea."

Mu Yuansheng sighed softly: "Sigh... well, Mu and Brother Xue will have to decide the winner sooner or later.

It's better to make it today, so as not to continue fighting in the future and waste our respective resources."

Xue Changming nodded, "Very good, Xue agrees."

The two of them crushed the jade talisman in their hands at the same time.

On the surface, Mu Yuansheng and Xue Changming accepted Yu Yi's proposal and decided the outcome in advance.

In fact, the two of them had long secretly decided that today they would remove all obstacles, ascend to the throne of city lord, and control the Qingluan tribe.

Yu Yi's proposal only brought the two people's secret plans to the surface.

The two of them naturally followed the current and took the opportunity to remove all obstacles.

It was very lively outside the main hall.

The two major factions, the Mu family and the Xue family, started taking action after receiving signals from their respective heads.

The sounds of chaotic footsteps, shouts of death, screams, and screams are endless.

All the civil and military officials in the hall were at a loss.

They can only pray secretly to determine the winner as soon as possible.

Then you can welcome the new city lord, keep your power, and continue to enjoy glory and wealth.

Time passed minute by minute.

For everyone in the hall, every second is like a year.

Some people are anxious and hesitant, some people are secretly happy, and some people don't care. It's all different kinds of life.

I don’t know how long it took, but the shouts of death gradually subsided.

A general whose shirt was stained with blood led the team into the main hall, raised his hands to Mu Yuansheng and said: "Master, the entire city has been cleared."

Xue Changming's face turned pale, and he seemed to have aged dozens of years, and his healthy body became stooped.

After a long time, he sighed: "Alas...it seems that Xue has lost.

The Xue family has made several generations of efforts to achieve today.

Xue paid a huge price to find out the Mu family's military deployment.

In order to prevent Brother Mu from counterattacking, Xue even more than doubled the number of secret guards to prevent various accidents, but it was still a complete defeat.

Brother Mu, can you tell me why Xue lost?"

Mu Yuansheng stroked his beard and said with a smile: "Haha...Brother Xue knew about Mu's troop deployment, so Mu didn't know about Brother Xue's plan.

Mu specially seconded five thousand Explosive Bear soldiers from the Explosive Bear Tribe in order to be able to break Brother Xue's plan as he wished."

Xue Changming exclaimed: "What? Five thousand explosive bear soldiers? How did they enter Qingluan City? How did they hide it from Xue's spies?"

Yu Yi and Luan Fengyi were also curious and stared at Mu Yuansheng with burning eyes, waiting for his explanation.

Mu Yuansheng said proudly: "Haha... Qingluan City is heavily defended. It is not easy at all to bring five thousand explosive bear troops into the city.

Mu worked hard and planned for several years before he succeeded.

The major business groups of the Baoxiong Tribe come to the Qingluan Tribe every month to purchase supplies.

If each business group has only a few people at a time, no one will notice.

After several consecutive years, won’t there be 5,000 people gathered together?”

Luan Qiang asked curiously: "The five thousand Explosive Bear Army is quite a number. Where does the Mu family usually place them?"

"Haha... The Mu family has so many properties, and adding a few to dozens of people to each property will not attract attention.

When needed, a single signal flare can gather five thousand explosive bear troops."

Yu Yi was also surprised that there is no shortage of smart people in this world.

Although Mu Yuansheng's method was not very clever, it could not withstand Yu Gong's perseverance to move mountains.

With the layout for several consecutive years, it is not an exaggeration to accept five thousand violent bear troops.

"Brother Mu is awesome, and Xue is convinced. I just hope that for the sake of the two families' close ties over the years, the women and children of the Xue family will be spared." Xue Changming was relieved.

Mu Yuansheng smiled and said: "Haha...what did Brother Xue say? Although Mu and Brother Xue are in a competitive relationship, their friendship for decades is indeed real.

Mu will not touch any of the Xue family members, but the military power in your hands..."

Mu Yuansheng didn't explain clearly, but Xue Changming didn't understand the meaning and said hurriedly:

"Thank you to Brother Mu for your magnanimity. Xue will hand over all his rights and the family's property will be handed over to the seventh floor, leaving only three floors for his family to live on."

"Haha...very good, very good."
