Traveling to Ancient Times: My Space Contains Weapons

Chapter 903 A Deadly Intent Appears Outside the Desert City

Chu Chen looked at the two men, both reeking of alcohol, and shook his head helplessly.

"You drunkard, have you forgotten you're driving today?"

"Hahaha, you idiot, I was in a good mood and had a few too many drinks, but... listen to me, I'm very good at driving!"

Chu Chen pulled Chen Qingxuan off him with a look of disgust, then looked helplessly at Sha Yanyan who had just come down.

"Well, why don't you sit in the front today?"

Sha Yanyan nodded to Chu Chen, then glared at Ba Tiancheng before getting into the passenger seat.

That one glance was enough to sober Ba Tiancheng up completely.

You should know that this younger sister is no ordinary person. Not only is she stronger than him, but she is also deeply loved by the old man.

If she were to report this to the old man, she'd probably be locked up in that Demon Realm full of demons again.

"Hey, you drunkard, let's not drink today. Let's rest, let's rest..."

Chu Chen chuckled after hearing this, thinking to himself that everything has its counter, so he simply raised up the driver's cab and the TV in the back of the RV.

Then, with a burst of speed, and under Sha Yanyan's direction, they headed west.

At that very moment, a figure rushed into the desert city.

"General, it is said that the Domain Lord has sent a new city lord, who is already on his way!"

"Hahaha, the city lord? Sent here to die? How did this person offend that old geezer, the domain lord?"

At the head of the table, a very tall and burly man grinned and spoke leisurely.

Beside her sat two petite girls; compared to his size, neither of them was probably as big as him.

After he finished speaking, he patted the two of them with an exaggeratedly large hand.

Then he looked at the people below and said, "Everyone, the Domain Lord feels sorry for our poor desert and has sent us silver. So, is there anyone willing to go and fetch that silver for me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a chorus of mocking voices erupted from below.

"General, our Black Fiend Army is short of funds, so I'll have to endure some hardship this time. I'll go."

"Get lost, you stinking intellectual. You should stay home and warm your bed with your newlywed concubine. I'll take care of this."

You know, with the arrival of the new city lord, whoever can bring back his head will have accomplished a great feat.

Who wouldn't want to go to such a great opportunity?

Just as everyone was arguing, a very alluring-looking man stepped out from the crowd.

While fiddling with his nails, he said, "Brothers, you all have concubines to warm your beds, but I don't. Don't you feel bad seeing such a handsome face of mine with no one to appreciate it? So, let me have this bed!"

Seeing his pretentious manner, the crowd immediately started cursing and swearing.

"Thirteen, you're the weakest of them all, yet you still want to compete with your older brothers? What, are you trying to disgust them to death?"

"Get lost, or I might end up in your bed tonight."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately deflated. This guy is a complete psychopath! They can't kill him, or they'll just be disgusted to death.

When the leader saw this oddly-looking brother come out, he frowned. He couldn't help it; he was scared too.

So he quickly said, "Alright, everyone, stop arguing and let Thirteen go!"

"Furthermore, I'll assign thirteen twenty skilled men. I expect you to come to me with our city lord's head!"

After saying that, the man waved his sleeve, then grabbed the two women and left his seat, heading towards the backyard.

Seeing that their job had been taken, the group left the council hall grumbling and went about their own business.

The man they called Thirteen smiled slightly, revealing a charming expression, turned around and left the main hall, then went into a side hall.

The next day, in a tea room behind the council hall.

"Niu Zi, I didn't know what to say to you yesterday, but I heard that this city lord is accompanied by two mysterious experts. Are you sure you want to go?"

"Brother, just let me give it a try. Don't worry, I definitely won't let you down."

"In all these years, every time a city lord comes to the Desert City, they have to obediently hand over silver to us. In this desert territory, that is our Black Fiend Army, that is your territory, Brother."

Amidst Niu Zi's flattery, the Black Fiend Army general immediately became smug.

In fact, what Niu Zi said is not an exaggeration. Desert City is a lawless area, filled with all sorts of people.

Because the land is barren, the authorities are unwilling to spend a lot of manpower and financial resources to manage it.

This has led to a situation where bandits roam freely, various forces emerge one after another, people leave, and the people live in misery.

"Alright, Niu Zi, take the men and set off. It's best to resolve this matter outside the city and bring back the new city lord's head and their Void Rings."

After listening, Niu Zi bowed to the general and then swayed her slender waist as she walked out of the side hall.

Immediately, a beautifully decorated carriage, followed by dozens of fast horses, sped off towards the outskirts of the desert city.

The people in the desert city all fled when they saw this group of people.

They were afraid of offending them and bringing disaster upon themselves.

"Where are these people heading in such a hurry?"

"Hehe, you don't know, do you? I heard that Huangsha City is sending a new city lord. These people are probably going to intercept him."

"Sigh...another pitiful person. It seems he has offended someone in Huangsha City!"

"Who says otherwise? In our Desert City, there's no hope of ever getting ahead."

As the group watched Niu Zi and his cavalry depart, they all began to discuss among themselves.

His eyes held expectation, reluctance, and disappointment.

In their eyes, they were useless people exiled to this place, and the desert city was also a useless place.

Therefore, everyone is hoping that the lord of the domain can take charge, eliminate the bandits, and restore a good living environment for the people.

They had considered escaping from the Desert City, but it was easier said than done. The Desert City was located in the northwest frontier, and even the nearest city was three thousand miles away.

This stretch of land is traversed by primeval forests infested with ferocious beasts and barren lands ravaged by sandstorms, making it far beyond the reach of people who can't even afford a carriage.

Chu Chen and Sha Yanyan were sitting in the passenger seat, with music on, watching the scenery outside the window.

Meanwhile, Ba Tiancheng and Chen Qingxuan, who were behind them, had already sobered up.

But on the small table in the RV, there was a dish of peanuts, and each of them had a bottle of Maotai and were bragging.

"You mean, this desert city, although its military strength isn't great, is still mostly stronger than mine?"
