Chapter 65: Chapter 65: The Mad Zheng De

This day is destined to leave a significant mark on the history of Tyrone City.

The prominent families that held a grip on the gemstone veins or managed the gemstone trade in Tyrone City were destroyed overnight, and a large quantity of gemstones was transported to the City Lord’s Mansion.

Zheng De looked at the boxes full of gemstones and excitedly downed the wine in his goblet.

"These old fools always trying to hoard Tyrone City’s gemstones, they all deserve death." Zheng De grabbed a handful of gemstones, letting them slip through his fingers, his expression frenzied and twisted.

"Congratulations, my lord, from now on, Tyrone City belongs to you alone." Sha Chu said with a smile beside him.

"You also contributed a lot, and as I promised, those few ruby veins will belong to your family from now on." Zheng De said, filled with confidence and satisfaction.

"My lord, it was my duty." Sha Chu smiled.

"You’re wise, unlike those old fools who sought their own demise. The future of Tyrone City depends on talents like you to develop it well." Zheng De said, squinting as he stared at Sha Chu’s ample bosom.

"I hope to have the opportunity to reminisce with you, City Lord, in the future." Sha Chu lowered her head with a faint smile.

"There’s always an opportunity. As long as I’m here, the City Lord’s Mansion is your home." Zheng De laughed heartily.

"My lord, Kun Sha is here." A Magic Armor Master reported to Zheng De.

"As expected of Kun Sha, still able to return. Where is he now?" Zheng De said calmly.

"At the main gate, he asked for you to meet him outside." The Magic Armor Master said.

"Very well, there should be an end to this." Zheng De stood up and said, "Go invite Qin Shi over, have her accompany me to meet Kun Sha."

On the street outside the main gate of the City Lord’s Mansion, Kun Sha stood with a flame hammer on his back and a Magic Armor Box in his hand, staring coldly at the gate.

On the roof of a distant dilapidated building, Li Xiu, Pa Shan, and Shale were watching the situation on the side of the City Lord’s Mansion from afar.

"Kun Sha will be alright on his own, right?" Pa Shan frowned, a little worried.

"Whether he is or isn’t doesn’t concern us. Can you handle those Magic Armor Masters?" Shale said with a curl of his lips: "It’s a battle between Magic Armor Masters, even if we go, it would be in vain."

Pa Shan was silent; a Trial Taker was too fragile in front of a Magic Armor Master.

"Li Xiu, what are you doing over there?" Shale saw Li Xiu fiddling with his phone and asked curiously.

"Contacting a friend to send me something." Li Xiu got in touch with A Fei, and thankfully A Fei was fine, so he asked A Fei to bring over his set of E-Class Magic Armor.

The Fire Lotus Sword on him made it difficult for him to even stand, let alone fight.

Moreover, the Fire Lotus Sword was erratic and not under Li Xiu’s control.

In this battle of Kun Sha, if possible, Li Xiu hoped to help Kun Sha win.

If Kun Sha died, Zheng De would certainly eliminate all those related to Kun Sha, leaving them no chance of acquiring high-level Magic Armor and forcing them to flee by night.

But if Zheng De could be killed instead, they could pick any Magic Armor from the City Lord’s Mansion.

Furthermore, Zheng De nearly killed Li Xiu; this debt had to be settled. Li Xiu was not one to easily forgive; grudges must be avenged.

While they were talking, a figure carrying a case walked up to the rooftop—it was A Fei, bringing the Magic Armor Box.

"Magic Armor, is this what you wanted? Are you telling us you’re also a Magic Armor Master?" Shale asked wide-eyed, seeing A Fei place the Magic Armor Box before Li Xiu.

"That’s exactly what I’m saying." Li Xiu smiled.

"Come on, are all Magic Armor Masters so reckless now? Dodging the comforts of being a Magic Armor Master to risk your life at the Trial Ground, are you just bored out of your mind?" Shale couldn’t understand why Magic Armor Masters like Li Xiu and Kun Sha would venture into the Trial Ground.

"You’re right, since I’m idle anyway, might as well have some fun." Li Xiu laughed.

This left Shale speechless; the things he risked his life for, Li Xiu just treated like casual fun.

Opening his mouth to retort, he recalled Li Xiu’s performance in the trials—a casual activity, indeed.

Not only did he participate casually, but he was exceptionally good at it. Without Li Xiu, they would have died in the Trial Ground.

"What level is your Magic Armor?" Shale shifted the topic.

"E-Class." Li Xiu answered honestly.

Shale immediately sneered, "An E-Class Magic Armor Master? You better stay put. Kun Sha is an S-Class Magic Armor Master. Zheng De has at least twenty or thirty E and D-Class Magic Armor Masters, along with several B and A-Class ones. There’s even an S-Class Magic Armor Master, Phoenix. You’re walking into death."

"High-level Magic Armor Masters don’t mean everything; perhaps cannon fodder has its uses." Li Xiu wasn’t concerned, laughing as he spoke.

"What use could there be? Can this broken E-Class of yours even topple an S-Class?" Shale curled his lips.

"You never know," Li Xiu said absentmindedly as he observed the situation at the City Lord’s Mansion.

"If you manage to use that broken thing to take down an S-Class Magic Armor Master, I’ll call you daddy. Enough with the nonsense, let’s plan for if Kun Sha dies, how we’ll escape. I think we should leave Tyrone City immediately..." Shale rambled on and on.

The gate of the City Lord’s Mansion opened, and Zheng De, surrounded by about a dozen Magic Armor Masters, along with Qin Shi in Phoenix Magic Armor, came out.

"Kun Sha, you dare to come?" Zheng De said recklessly.

"Why wouldn’t I dare? I, Kun Sha, have always been forthright and honest. I can go wherever I please." Kun Sha coldly looked at Zheng De, "I recall you once told me you’d lead Tyrone City to glory, so that all people could live good lives—otherwise, you said you’d give your head to me as a chamber pot. Now’s the time to fulfill that promise."

"Kun Sha, how do you know I can’t lead Tyrone City to glory? Under my leadership, Tyrone City will grow stronger. No need for grandstanding; you just want to kill me and take my place, so why waste words?" Zheng De sneered, "Everything you have now, didn’t I give it to you? Do you really think you’re something great? Without me, you’d still be a nobody, unable to even touch an E-Class Magic Armor, let alone an S-Class. The one betraying is you."

Zheng De was skilled at inverting black and white.

"Betraying brothers, harming kin, plundering others’ wealth—is this how you lead Tyrone City to glory?" Kun Sha’s eyes flashed with disappointment; he didn’t know when Zheng De became like this.

"Didn’t this so-called brother want to kill me and seize power too? What kinsmen, those old fools wouldn’t let go of the gemstone veins. How could I develop Tyrone City? How could I let my people live well? This is for Tyrone City’s benefit; those gemstone veins must be reclaimed as public property of the City Lord’s Mansion, the common wealth of Tyrone City’s people." Zheng De shamelessly declared with righteousness.

"What about your debt to the Eternal Heaven?" Kun Sha asked calmly.

"What Eternal Heaven? Stop spreading false rumors." A trace of panic flashed in Zheng De’s eyes as he waved his hand: "Phoenix, take down this ungrateful wretch for me, and I’ll give you triple the rubies."

"Triple, is it?" Qin Shi looked up at Kun Sha, stepping forward slowly.
