Chapter 167 Send Away

Chapter 167 Send Away
Jiang Lisheng was not really good at persuading people, but Zheng Feng was able to let them in even when the city was under lockdown. After letting them in, he also persuaded them several times that the situation in the city was not good and asked them to leave quickly.

He is a good person and looks decent, so we should save him if we can.

Tens of thousands of lives are lives, and one human life is also a life.

In her eyes, there is no difference whether it belongs to the people or the officials.

She didn't care what royal rules there were in the mortal world. She just knew that justice asked her to save people, so she couldn't just stand by and do nothing.

Pei Rong looked at Zheng Feng and said, "Sir Zheng, it is better for you to be loyal to the prince than to His Majesty. His Majesty's actions are against the will of heaven. Even the people in the immortal sect cannot stand it, so they had no choice but to use magic weapons to save people from the sword of Wang Quan. The prince is kind, but he is weak now. If you burn yourself here, although you will be loyal to the emperor, you will also help the tyrant. It will not let His Majesty realize that he is wrong."

"Your Majesty is the king." Zheng Feng said.

"You are not wrong?" Pei Rong asked.

Zheng Feng was stumped.

Pei Rong said sadly: "When my father was alive, he loved and cared for every citizen of Hexin City. Although the Pei family has brought disaster to the people of the city, if Your Majesty had a kind heart and loved the people, you wouldn't have let so many people die in vain. Why should I be loyal to such a king?"

Zheng Feng hesitated, "Brother Pei, you..."

Pei Rong looked at him, "Sir Zheng, Brother Zheng, listen to my advice. You go with the people. Miss Jiang said she would help you save your family, and she will. As for the future, if you are willing to be an official, then go and serve the prince. If you are not willing to be an official, then settle down in Yunshan City. Life is a hundred years long, and it is possible not to be separated from your parents and relatives. Why die in vain and let your living relatives suffer because of losing you?"

Zheng Feng was silent, understanding that Pei Rong was judging others by his own experience after losing his loved ones.

Seeing that Zheng Feng had not spoken, Xi Jili frowned and said, "Sir Zheng, are you really not going to leave? Are you determined to die in vain? Kind words cannot persuade a damned person, and great mercy cannot save a self-aware person. If you really don't want to leave, we won't waste any more words with you."

Zheng Feng looked struggling.

Xi Jili turned around and urged Jiang Lisheng, "Senior Sister, quickly take out the magic weapon. Those who are willing to leave can enter the magic weapon immediately. Senior Brother Yun will take people to send them to Yunshan City immediately. Those who are unwilling to leave can do whatever they want."

Jiang Lisheng glanced at Zheng Feng and took out her flying boat.

Yu Congrong stopped her and said, "Use mine. Your flying boat is small and can't hold so many people."

Jiang Lisheng thought about it and realized that her flying boat was naturally not as big as Yu Congrong's Cloud Piercing Shuttle, so she put it away.

Yu Congrong waved her hand, and the Cloud Shuttle flew out of her storage ring, growing from small to large. In the blink of an eye, it expanded several times and became five stories high. She opened the door and said to the people, "If you want to go in, go in. I'll take you to Yunshan City."

The people opened their eyes wide and looked at the huge monster that appeared out of nowhere. They had never seen it before and were surprised and frightened.

Jiang Lisheng was also surprised. It turned out that Master Yu's Cloud-piercing Shuttle was so big. It was much bigger than hers. He was worthy of being Master Yu who rarely left Kunlun Mountain.

"Hurry up! Don't waste time, or something might happen." Jiang Lisheng didn't want to cause any more trouble, so he sent the person to Yunshan City safely first.

The people looked at each other, excited and scared, and no one dared to be the first to step forward. The old lady who had earlier pulled Jiang Lisheng was not afraid. In her eyes, this was a life-saving treasure. She grabbed her little grandson behind her and pushed him in, "Let's go, my little grandson, let's go."

"Grandma is leaving too." The little boy, about seven or eight years old, turned around and ran back to pull the old lady after being pushed in.

The old lady cried and said, "If you leave, grandma won't leave, and your father..."

"Aunt Fang, why don't you come with us? Otherwise, how can such a young child survive in a place where he is unfamiliar with the environment?" A woman also walked forward, dragging her child with her. "My dead husband said that as long as the child and I live, he can die."

The old lady looked at her little grandson, who was clinging to her tightly, and then looked at the woman beside her who was holding two children younger than her grandson. She gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, let's go. Grandma will go with you."

After she finished speaking, she said to Jiang Lisheng, "Miss, my son's name is Zhao Baocai. If you can save him, I will let him work like a cow or a horse to repay you. If you can't save him... let him die. Anyway, so many people have died in Hexin City, and one more person won't make a difference..."

Jiang Lisheng didn't know what to say, so he pursed his lips and said nothing.

The old lady dragged her grandson into the Cloud Piercing Shuttle. The little boy looked back at her with tears on his face and red eyes.

As the old lady and the woman dragged their children in, the people were no longer afraid and rushed in.

After all the people entered the Cloud-piercing Shuttle, the North City, which was once crowded with people, was now empty. Only Zheng Feng and his soldiers were left. The people brought by Zheng Feng stood behind him. Although everyone wanted to live, no one moved when they saw Zheng Feng didn't move.

Jiang Lisheng sighed, "Master Zheng, if you don't leave, look at the people behind you. Some of them already have wives and children, while some haven't married yet, right? They all have parents and relatives at home, right? I promised to save them all, are you really not going to leave?"

Zheng Feng looked back at his men. The soldiers expected you to look at him. He finally relaxed, "Those people in South City..."

"Leave it to me." Jiang Lisheng said, "I will find a way. If there is really no other way, I will burn this city to death and will not let the corruption harm more people."

Zheng Feng nodded and gritted his teeth, "Okay, I'll go."

He looked at Pei Rong, "Little brother Pei, are you still going to Yunshan City? When you were young, you joined the army and set a lofty ambition to make great achievements. As you said, the prince is kind and benevolent. Will you go with me?"

Pei Rong shook his head and stopped addressing him as Lord Zheng. Instead, he addressed him as Brother Zheng. "Brother Zheng, just go on your own. I am different from you. I no longer have a grandmother, parents, or relatives. I have no family to think about and no home to return to. The evil spirits harmed my family, so how can I not avenge them? I will join the Qingxu Immortal Sect, find the evil spirits, and avenge myself. My ambitions in the mortal world are now a thing of the past. I wish Brother Zheng will be loyal to a wise ruler in the future and realize his ambitions."

Zheng Feng was surprised, but looking at Pei Rong's face, he looked almost the same as the people from the Immortal Sect. It was not surprising. He sighed, "Well! Although your family has suffered a disaster, Brother Pei has this opportunity. I wish you a bright future, longevity, and avenge your family as soon as possible."

Pei Rong cupped his hands, "Thank you very much."

Zheng Feng said goodbye and took the soldiers on board the Cloud Piercing Shuttle.

Yu Congrong handed the Cloud Piercing Shuttle to Yunduan and said, "Take two people with you and go there yourself. Be careful along the way. This is a very important matter. Try not to stop on the way before you reach Yunshan City safely." He paused and then instructed, "If the Yun family doesn't want to take them, you don't have to make it difficult for them. Split the people into two and send half to the foot of Qingxu Mountain and the other half to the foot of Kunlun Mountain."

Yunduan responded, "Don't worry, uncle."
