"City Lord Zhou, since you know that there is a dynasty behind our City Lord, you should also understand that if we really join your Cheng family, the consequences for us will be equally disastrous.

So I ask City Lord Zhou to forgive me, not because we are unwilling, but because we dare not offend the dynasty!" Deputy City Lord Meng said.

"City Lord Zhou and Deputy City Lord Meng are right, it's not that we are unwilling, but that we dare not offend the dynasty.

Although you just said you don't have to worry about the Dynasty, if we really join the Cheng family, even if the Dynasty wants to cause trouble, it will only cause trouble for us, not your Cheng family!" City Lord Huang said.

The Cheng family is so powerful that even if the dynasty wants to cause trouble, they may not dare to cause trouble to the Cheng family, so they will naturally be in trouble.

They can't even deal with the White City Alliance, let alone the Dynasty.

"Of course I can understand your feelings, but whether you believe in our Cheng family or not, there are only two paths before you now.

One is to join our Cheng family. Whether it is the Baicheng Alliance or the dynasty, it will naturally be handled by our Cheng family.

The other option is to let the Baicheng Alliance take away your city. What will happen to you then depends on your own life!" Zhou Heng saw that they all agreed with the family leader's conditions, so he was not in a hurry.

He said nonchalantly.

"This..." Everyone's hearts tightened. This week the city lord really put them in a difficult situation.

Looking at this situation, if they choose not to agree to the Cheng family's conditions, they will probably leave.

"City Lord Zhou, if we don't agree, do we have to leave like this?" City Lord Guang asked.

"This is natural. After all, this is not the territory of our Cheng family. Now Hongcheng is a place of war. Of course, our Cheng family does not want to get burned.

The opportunity has been left to you, but you'd better make your choice quickly. Because if we don't show up, the White City Alliance will think that we have left, and they won't wait for you to show up before attacking the city!" City Lord Zhou smiled.

He said.

“City Master Zhou, this condition of Master Cheng is really too embarrassing, isn’t there a compromise?

Alternatively, we can hand over the control of the entrance and exit into the secular world in Hongcheng to your Cheng family. In this case, your Cheng family will not have to worry about someone doing something to harm the Cheng family at the exit from the cultivation world!

And we just need you to help us drive away the White City Alliance, how about that?" Deputy City Lord Meng said.

This is what the Lord Xian Yue once told him. He didn't know if it would be useful, but he really had no choice.

If they don't agree to the Cheng family's conditions, the Cheng family won't care about their life or death at all.

So he could only settle for the next best thing, not asking the Cheng family to protect them all the time, as long as they could drive away the Baicheng Alliance now.

As long as the White City Alliance goes back, they can at least find a way to contact the dynasty, hoping to get their protection, even if they add some tribute.

After all, joining the Cheng family seems safe, but as soon as the dynasty gets into trouble, they will be in misery. This is not a long-term solution after all!

At least he couldn't believe what City Lord Zhou said about not having to worry about the dynasty's troubles. How could that be possible?

If only they were staying here, it would be great if the Cheng family could take care of the secular world. How could there be so many masters garrisoning their more than 20 cities?

As long as the Cheng family leaves, they may be punished by the dynasty at any time!

Therefore, they only hope that the Cheng family can temporarily help them overcome this difficulty!

"Control of the entrance and exit? Do you think anyone would dare to do something at the entrance and exit that would embarrass the Cheng family? Or does Hong Cheng have the guts?" Zhou Heng couldn't help but sneered.

For Hong Cheng to hand over control of the entrance and exit to them, this in itself is too funny.

Although the entrance and exit are indeed within the scope of Hongcheng, in fact, everyone can enter and exit freely at this entrance and exit.

Because before the rise of the Cheng family, or before everyone in the world of cultivation had no interest in the secular world, no one cared about these entrances and exits, and many entrances and exits were even unguarded.

At the beginning, Kunlun also had a station in the secular world, so they often went in and out between the world of cultivation and the secular world.

And there happens to be an entrance and exit in the Kunlun world, so they will naturally send people to guard it. But for most of the entrances and exits in the cultivation world, they are basically unguarded.

Another point, even if this entrance and exit is within your sphere of influence, whether you can guard it depends on your own strength.

Just like the entrance and exit of Hongcheng, almost no one came in or out of that place before, so naturally no one would be posted to guard it.

But now, because of the Cheng family, this place has become a very crowded place.

Of course Hong Cheng also saw the benefits, but the Cheng family was too powerful.

Nowadays, so many big forces in the world of cultivation have been annexed by the Cheng family. Even a force as powerful as the Xuantian Sect could not do anything to the Cheng family. Instead, it was brought down by the Cheng family.

How dare they guard the entrance and exit and offend the Cheng family?

However, they don't dare to offend the Cheng family, but there will always be some who are bold, like the White City Alliance.

"City Master Zhou, please don't get me wrong. We in Hongcheng have always been on equal footing with the Cheng family, and have never been enemies of the Cheng family.

However, if the Cheng family just leaves now. When the Baicheng Alliance takes over Hongcheng, it's uncertain whether they will control the entrance and exit. After all, the Baicheng Alliance will not be affected by their strength or their ambitions.

You can say that they are not even comparable to us!" Deputy City Lord Meng said.

Although he is not sure whether the White City Alliance really dares to do this, it is not impossible.

Moreover, at this time, the most important thing for him is to convince the experts like the Cheng family to help Hongcheng.

"Let's not talk about whether the Baicheng Alliance really has the courage. Even if they really want to control the entrance and exit by then, do you think it is necessary to worry about this with the strength of our Cheng family?" Zhou Heng said disdainfully.

If it was a dynasty, maybe they would be really difficult to deal with. If it was just the White City Alliance, he really didn't think they had the ability to control this entrance.

"This...this, everything has accidents. Even if they can't control it, they will seal the entrance and exit directly, that's not necessarily the case!" Deputy City Lord Meng paused and said.

With the strength of the Cheng family, if the Baicheng Alliance really dares to embarrass those who come and go here, the Cheng family will definitely take action.
