The atmosphere gradually solidified

"City Lord! Lord Wu Ma Tao and Lord Gao Shanche have arrived!"

A Martial Emperor subordinate stood behind the small hall's curtain and said respectfully.

"Quickly invite the two Lords in. No, I will go welcome them myself!"

Nanmen Shang immediately stood up and lifted the curtain.

The Martial Emperor subordinate left very tactfully, revealing Wu Ma Tao and Gao Shanche behind him.

"Haha!"

Nanmen Shang laughed and said, "The arrival of you two Lords truly brings light to my humble abode!"

"Haha, we apologize for disturbing you, City Lord."

Wu Ma Tao and Gao Shanche returned the greeting with smiles.

Nanmen Shang waved his hands quickly: "What City Lord? What qualifications do I have to be addressed as 'Lord' by you two?"

"Haha, regardless, Fellow Daoist Nanmen Shang, you are the lord of a city. Why not?"

Wu Ma Tao smiled, then seemed to glance at Su Lang inadvertently, exclaiming in surprise, "Eh, this Fellow Daoist looks quite unfamiliar."

"City Lord Nanmen Shang, who is this Fellow Daoist?"

Gao Shanche also looked at Nanmen Shang with some confusion.

At the same time, he was observing Su Lang, only to find that he couldn't see through him at all.

He could only sense that the surface of this strange young expert's body was covered with a layer of powerful Mental Energy at the Nianhai Realm.

Apart from that, there was not a trace of aura.

This immediately shocked Gao Shanche.

One must know that he was a veteran of a hundred battles, and his sensitivity to auras had reached an exaggerated level.

But when it came to Su Lang, he couldn't feel anything at all.

This gave him a sense of unease when facing the unknown.

"Haha, let me introduce him!"

Nanmen Shang said with a full smile, "This is Fellow Daoist You Tian, who has just returned from the regions of the alien races. His cultivation is formidable, and his attainments in the Dao of Formations are unfathomable and immeasurable!"

"The City Lord is too kind."

Su Lang smiled faintly.

"Not at all!"

Nanmen Shang laughed, "I am just speaking the truth!"

Upon hearing this, Gao Shanche and Wu Ma Tao immediately looked surprised.

They did not expect that Nanmen Shang's evaluation of this You Tian would be so high!

Especially since, in front of Wu Ma Tao, a famous Formation Master, he actually said that You Tian's attainments in the Dao of Formations were unfathomable.

This was somewhat intriguing.

"Fellow Daoist You Tian, let me introduce these two to you."

At this moment, Nanmen Shang said, "This is Fellow Daoist Wu Ma Tao, a renowned Formation Master within our clan.

This is Fellow Daoist Gao Shanche, one of the commanders of the main city guards, who has won every battle!"

"I am merely enjoying an undeserved reputation."

"I can hardly be called undefeated!"

Wu Ma Tao and Gao Shanche said modestly at the same time.

Among them, Gao Shanche was truly humble, while Wu Ma Tao was only superficially humble; in his heart, a thought arose to compete with Su Lang.

"Come, everyone sit down and talk."

Under Nanmen Shang's invitation, the four of them sat around a low table.

"City Lord Nanmen Shang, Fellow Daoist You Tian went to travel in foreign regions, and as soon as he returned, he came to find you to catch up; your friendship must be quite deep."

Wu Ma Tao said, "But you and I are considered acquaintances; why didn't you introduce Fellow Daoist You Tian to me before?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Gao Shanche also pricked up his ears.

However, what friendship could there be between Nanmen Shang and Su Lang? They had only just started talking not long ago!

Therefore, he could only look at Su Lang.

"Actually, I have only just met Fellow Daoist Nanmen Shang not long ago."

Su Lang smiled, "It's just that I recently returned from foreign regions, and happened to discover some things, so I came to see the City Lord."

Gao Shanche immediately perked up: "Oh!? Discovered some things? Is it about the alien races?"

"No."

Su Lang shook his head, "It is about the Qingfeng City defensive Formation."

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere suddenly stiffened a bit.

Gao Shanche looked at Su Lang with suspicion, not knowing how to respond for a moment.

Wu Ma Tao, who originally had the intention of competing with Su Lang, narrowed his eyes even more.

Wu Ma Tao paused and said: "This Qingfeng City Formation was set up by me. I wonder what Fellow Daoist You Tian has discovered?"

"I discovered a flaw in the defensive Formation."

Su Lang went straight to the point, not afraid of offending Wu Ma Tao; in any case, the Human Race and the Wind Spirit Clan were already great enemies.

"What? You discovered a flaw in the Qingfeng City defensive Formation?"

Wu Ma Tao's expression turned somewhat ugly for a moment, but he immediately returned to normal.

He said: "To be honest, my Formation does indeed have two flaws. I came to Qingfeng City this time precisely for this matter."

"For Fellow Daoist You Tian to be able to discover one of the flaws in my Formation, your attainments in the Dao of Formations are truly admirable."
