Chapter 142 Hostage (1)

Now, as the surrounding large and small factions were either destroyed or annexed by them, they could no longer continue to expand. The two sides also aimed their fangs at each other.
In the current Great Wu Empire, the imperial power had collapsed. In an era where experts and heroes were divided everywhere, the various Lords focused on strengthening themselves. Between these lords, there was, naturally, no lack of killing and annexation!
As the saying goes, two tigers cannot share one mountain. In the end, only one of the two ferocious tigers, Xingluo Territory and Cangyan Territory, could survive.
Tiandou Province, as one of the seven provinces of the Xingluo Territory, the size of the province was much larger than the Seven Star Province. The biggest difference between the seven provinces of the Xingluo Territory and the thirteen provinces of the Cangyan Territory was that the seven states of the Xingluo Territory did not differ in size. This was because the difference in the territory of these seven provinces was not too great.
Unlike the Cangyan Territory, the size of the thirteen provinces varied greatly.
When the flying ship left the Seven Star Province and passed through the mysterious desert between the Seven Star Province and the Tiandou Province, they had finally entered Tiandou Province.
The huge size of the Tiandou Province also caused the forces here to be extremely numerous and complicated.
Although the Swift Shadow Palace was a first-tier faction in Tiandou Province, it was not the only first-tier faction. At the same time, in the Tiandou Province, the strongest was no longer the Blood Martial Realm. There were experts of a higher level than the Blood Martial Realm here.
As the flying ship shuttled at high speed, they arrived above a city in the Tiandou Province. This was a city far larger than Golden Cloud City. The entire city was extremely prosperous. The population was even larger. However, such a city was extremely common in the Tiandou Province. It was not as rare as the Seven Star Province.
When the flying ship landed in the city, a beautiful woman had been waiting here for a long time. She was the City Lord of this Bixin City. After seeing the white-haired old man, she immediately bowed respectfully. "Greetings, Elder Luo."
The white-haired old man nodded slightly. He looked at Guo Chengdap among the crowd. "From now on, this Bixin City will be handed over to your Red Tiger Sect."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guo Chengdao and the three elders were stunned. Before that, they were guessing how the white-haired old man would settle their Red Tiger Sect. They thought that he would randomly find a place for them, and let them rebuild the sect. Unexpectedly, they actually handed over a city to them.
"Feng Yu, continue to be the City Lord here and assist the Red Tiger arrangement.

"Yes!" The beautiful woman called Feng Yu nodded respectfully.
Sect in managing Bixin City." The white-haired old man made the arrangement.
"Yes!" The beautiful woman called Feng Yu nodded respectfully.
After giving his instructions, the white-haired old man\'s gaze landed on the disciples of the Red Tiger Sect. His gaze focused on Cen Qingci among the disciples.
Under the white-haired old man\'s gaze, Cen Qingci\'s face turned pale. She felt as if she was being targeted by a ferocious beast. Her entire body turned cold. Her heart was beating rapidly.
The white-haired old man pointed at Cen Qingci and said calmly, "This woman is the core personal disciple of your Red Tiger Sect, right? Let her be the hostage."

"A… A hostage!?" Guo Chengdao and the three elders were stunned.
It was actually understandable that the other party would let their core disciples be hostages. After all, their Red Tiger Sect used to belong to the Cangyan Territory. Now that they had joined the Xingluo Territory, they naturally had to leave a hostage.
However, what made them anxious was the hostage that the other party had chosen was actually Cen Qingci.
"Sir… Actually, there\'s more than one core disciple in our Red Tiger Sect. The others might be more suitable." Guo Chengdao hurriedly said. He did not want Cen Qingci to become a hostage. After all, Cen Qingci was the only bloodline left behind by the Patriarch. It was extremely important to their Red Tiger Sect!
However, the white-haired old man said calmly, "It\'s her. I\'ll give you three minutes to choose five Qi Martial Realm followers and follow us back to the Swift Shadow Palace with the hostage." The white-haired old man led his three disciples and City Lord Feng Yu to the side.
Guo Chengdao and the three elders did not look too good. Not many people in the sect knew Cen Qingci\'s identity. Unexpectedly, the other party chose Cen Qingci directly.
"What do we do?" The three elders looked at Guo Chengdao.
Guo Chengdao\'s expression was solemn. They were mainly worried about Cen Qingci\'s safety and how she would be treated after becoming a hostage.
Now, the fate of their Red Tiger Sect was completely in the hands of the Swift Shadow Palace. Although the other party had brought them out of the Seven Star Province, the arrangements they had made were unquestionable and could not be rejected.
The only thing they could do was to try their best to arrange five reasonable followers for Cen Qingci.
They were both a follower and Cen Qingci\'s guardian. According to the original intention of Guo Chengdao and the three elders, they wanted to directly arrange for the five strongest Major Perfection Qi Martial cultivators to be Cen Qingci\'s followers.
However, Cen Qingci had a different idea. "I want to choose my own followers." said Cen Qingci seriously. She felt that it was best to use their team in the Seven Star Holy Land as her followers. Instead of choosing some unfamiliar people as followers, she might as well bring her familiar team over.
