Chapter 233: The Battle of the Elders
Chapter 233: The Battle of the Elders
It was the Great Hall of the Twelve Cities again, and the Dragon City Lord was still sitting in the middle with a majestic face. Compared with the previous time, there were four people sitting on one side of the seat of the Nine Great Elders, and Ao Xuanyun was also among them, which did not mean that Ao Xuanyun was one of the elders, but that he was here today on purpose to become one of the elders, and he was a very powerful elder, in charge of the city defense.
On this side sat Elder Gu first, followed by Elder Lianggong, followed by Elder Mo, followed by Ao Xuanyun.
The first one on the opposite side is Elder Qian, followed by Elder Zhou Gong of the Star Palace, followed by Elder Xi, who is in charge of external affairs and information, to put it bluntly, he is in contact with other departments in the Silver Sea, and he also keeps in touch with the guardians of the starry sky at all levels, and keeps abreast of the information of each town in the Twelve Cities, as well as the situation around the Twelve Cities. There are also many soul masters with extraordinary strength below him, if you say that among the nine elders, Elder Gu is the strongest, holding the Soul Cultivation Academy, followed by Elder Qian, who is in charge of the soul coins of the entire Twelve Cities, followed by Elder Shu, and then he and Elder Lianggong, and the other elders are only in charge of some daily livelihoods.
On the next side was a relatively young Elder Xu, in charge of medical appointments, who had just returned from Shishan Town in the past two days, and was obviously a little tired, as if he was about to doze off, and his spirit was very poor.
Granny Immortal and Elder Shu are both dead, and the murders in the twelve cities in the past two days have occurred one after another, so that the entire hall is filled with a depressing atmosphere.
Ao Xuanyun changed his normal state, and he no longer smiled, and learned from other elders, sitting upright and not smiling.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the Dragon City Lord glanced at everyone and said slowly, "Elder Xu, what is the situation in Shishan Town now?"
Xu Changcai woke up like a dream and looked at the Dragon City Lord and said: "Back to the City Lord and a few elders, the current city lord of Shishan Town is Shan Qiu Yun, that is, the sister of the former city lord Shan Zhongtang. ”
"Everyone knows this, I already said it when the Lord of Ao City came last time, you can talk about the birth of the lion's soul this time, the collapse of the lion's heart mountain, how many people were killed and injured, and how to deal with it now. ”
The Dragon City Lord was a little annoyed with this Elder Xu, knowing that this elder was merry by nature, he was also young, day and night, lingering in the place of marriage flowers, looking at his appearance, he was not tired from going back and forth to Shishan Town, but he didn't know where to go, so his face was tired.
"Mountain Qiu Yun bought Baiyangping grain, and their own family sold the mountain hall and the mountain in the Yi courtyard, to the Shishan Town rich family to buy materials, and Jinniu Town sent a large number of materials, now the people of Shishan Town to also settle properly, Shanqiu Yun has sent people to build houses all over the Hengnan Mountains, rebuild homes, look at her appearance, is to let the entire Shishan Town move to the Hengnan Mountains, people are a little puzzled, this time a total of more than 20,000 people died, more than 10,000 injured, Shishan Town damage is very serious. ”
After Elder Xu finished speaking, he took a sip of water, obviously feeling a little energetic.
"That's the matter of Shishan Town, you transfer some materials to go, it can be regarded as the friendship of the same city, such a big difficulty, I can't stand by in the twelve cities, Elder Mo, you help Elder Xu for the time being, handle it as soon as possible, as for why she built a village in the Hengnan Mountains, if you want to come to Ao City Lord, you must be clear, but it is inconvenient for us to ask the reason. ”
"Sister Qiu Yun is naturally also thinking about the people of Shishan Town, if it is placed in situ, I am afraid that the spirit of the other world will disturb it in the future, so it is more beneficial for the people to live in the mountains!"
Ao Xuanyun looked at the Dragon City Lord, and simply said the idea of Qiu Yun in the mountains, but he didn't want these elders to be suspicious.
The Dragon City Lord smiled slightly, looked at Elder Qian and said, "That's the best, Elder Qian, why haven't those two city lords come yet?"
Elder Qian smiled and clapped his hands to his side, but two people appeared beside him at the same time.
One is very enchanting and tall, but it is a woman, while the other is five big and three thick, with a crab roe color.
Ao Xuanyun looked at it, his face changed, all the city lords of the twelve cities except for these two, it seems that he has seen them, so it seems that it should be the Cancer galaxy on the northern coast, the city lord of Cancer, the yellow-faced sheng, and one of the three underground cave masters, the Sagittarius galaxy, the Sagittarius cave lord bewitching princess, is really as good as her name.
"You two city lords sit down first, I see there is still a position on this side!"
After the Dragon City Lord finished speaking, the yellow-faced student sat opposite, while the bewitching prince sat next to Ao Xuanyun, bringing a smell of commotion, which made Ao Xuanyun a little unbearable.
The bewitching princess stared at Ao Xuanyun, as if she had seen delicious food, she swallowed her saliva, I don't know if she had been underground for a long time, and she had never seen such a handsome city lord as Ao Xuanyun, so she cared about Ao Xuanyun very much.
"The Lord of the Yellow City has been in the north of my twelve cities for a long time to resist the invasion of foreign creatures, and he is very good at the important affairs of city defense, this time Elder Shu is deceased, you are here to replace Elder Shu, in charge of the important affairs of the city defense of the twelve cities, and you will be one of the nine elders in the future, and the bewitching princess represents the creatures of the three caves underground, and if you want to come, you will replace the elder of the original fairy mother-in-law, you two should be closer to other elders in the future, if you don't know, you have to ask the elders for support and support!"
After the Dragon City Lord finished speaking, he inspected the elders.
"Dragon City Lord, how does the Ao City Lord arrange it?"
Elder Liang Gong only knew at this time that the Dragon City Lord had already made arrangements, but he also talked to the Dragon City Lord in the morning about letting Ao Xuanyun replace Elder Shu to take charge of the city's defense affairs, but the Dragon City Lord had no objections, and now it seems that there must be something ulterior in this.
"Elder Lianggong, the city lord of Ao is still a suspected murderer, since the city lord of Ao came to my twelve cities, there have been so many murders in a row, I think Elder Lianggong is very tired, have you forgotten the rules of my twelve cities!"
Elder Qian on the other side looked half-sarcastic, and finished speaking slowly, but he didn't look at Elder Lianggong, but lightly raised the teacup and drank tea by himself, not taking Elder Lianggong in his eyes at all.
"Elder Xie, I, the Duke of Liang, have been in charge of the prison break lawsuit in the Twelve Cities, but I have never dared to forget the rules of the Twelve Cities, but the murder case in the east of the city and the murder case of Jing Ranxuan, who is who is wrong has not been decided, the thirteen murders last night have nothing to do with the Ao City Lord, do I think Elder Xie thinks that Ao Xuanyun must be a murderer, so he is so excluded?"
"Elder Lianggong, this person has been arranged, do you think I am acting unfairly? Three days of murders, you should solve the case as soon as possible, the people of the twelve cities are panicking, this is a matter within your measure, if you think that the city lord of Ao is useful, you should use it yourself, I want to measure the power of the elder, as well as the wisdom of the city lord, these cases will definitely be solved within ten days, otherwise, even if I am the city lord, it will be difficult to protect your position as an elder!"
The Dragon City Lord's tone was very harsh, which made Elder Liang Gong very angry and wanted to defend again, but Elder Mo on the side gently pressed his hand to let him dissipate his anger.
Ao Xuanyun remained silent, actually observing the expressions of the elders.
Elder Gu obviously knew about this arrangement for a long time, but he still went to the prison to let Ao Xuanyun out, and he also showed great trust in him, but at this time, he was very indifferent, I don't know if he was still thinking about the matter of the Immortal Mother-in-law, and he was indifferent to who would be the city defense elder, and he was not interested in who would replace the Immortal Mother-in-law.
And Elder Xie on the other side should be the leader of this matter, so as soon as Elder Lianggong spoke, he directly refuted it, poking at Elder Lianggong's weakness, so that Elder Lianggong rarely had the right to speak.
Elder Zhou Gong looked like he didn't care about himself as if he had already calculated, but he squinted his eyes and looked at Ao Xuanyun, the meaning was very clear, that is, let Ao Xuanyun not get angry and deal with it calmly.
The two elders, Xi and Xu, were naturally in the same group as Elder Xie, so from this point of view, these three elders must have the advantage.
From Ao Xuanyun's side, Elder Liang Gong, who obviously supports him now, Elder Gu does not express his position, which puts Ao Xuanyun in a weak position, and although Elder Zhou Gong admires Ao Xuanyun, he seems to be confident, and does not support Ao Xuanyun to take charge of defense, it seems that he has other ideas.
"Elder Lianggong, you don't have to ask for me, these twelve cities are so big, in the realm, it's only a square inch if you think about it, I, Ao Xuanyun, have never put this position of elder and city lord in my eyes, don't lose face for me, as for who will be the elder, since the dragon city lord has already arranged it properly, and he should obey it, I still go back to Jingranxuan to live for a few days, I want to come to the peony fairy's peony building, but I haven't entered it yet, such a good opportunity, I can't miss it!"
After Ao Xuanyun finished speaking, he stood up and stretched his waist, looking like no one was looking at him, very arrogant!
"Ao Xuanyun, this is the Great Hall of the Twelve Cities, is it possible that you can come if you really want to, and leave if you want?"
Elder Xie preempted the Dragon City Lord, and he looked like he wanted to add to the crime, which suddenly made the whole atmosphere tense.
"Walking in the situation depends on strength, if Elder Xie is not convinced, he can teach me a lesson, but I am very welcome!"
When Elder Xie heard this, his face changed drastically, while the other elders were still sitting upright, not minding the two of them fighting at all.
Elder Xie was about to get up, but Elder Zhou Gong on the side was smiling at this time and gently patted Elder Xie on the shoulder and said, "Elder Xie doesn't have to be angry, Brother Ao has always been like this, but he doesn't take these twelve cities in his eyes, if you fight with him, I'm afraid you will lose face!"
"What do you mean, Old Zhou Gong, you mean that I can't beat a hairy guy, I'm afraid you look down on him!"
Elder Xie was originally just a gesture, but he never thought that Zhou Gong didn't take him seriously at all at this time, and his words were sarcastic, and the meaning was obvious, if he was compared with Ao Xuanyun, he was afraid that he would lose embarrassment and lose face.
Ao Xuanyun actually understands very well in his heart, although this Elder Xie looks like a businessman, but he is in charge of minting soul coins, and soul coins need to be injected with soul power, so it is not a problem to fill his pockets, benefit from them, and improve his soul power, of course, it is not a problem, his soul power can be fought by Elder Gu, not a general, but he has no bottom in his heart, but he has to do this, not doing so makes Liang Gong and Elder Mo very embarrassed, and it also affects the right to speak in these twelve cities.
"Elder Xie, if you want to fight, I will naturally accompany you, why bother with a junior!"
Elder Gu's voice sounded coldly at this time, so that everyone had to look at Elder Gu together, after all, with his qualifications, such a big thing, but he didn't say a word, naturally there was something unusual, at this time, it was strong to support Ao Xuanyun, which made Ao Xuanyun very surprised.
The Dragon City Lord looked like he had nothing to do with himself, it seemed that the fight against these elders under the hall was already a matter of course, the Nine Elders, if one side was big, for him, he naturally didn't want to see it, mutual containment was the balance of the reason, so that his position as the city lord was very stable, thinking that he would arrange it like this, he must have known Ao Xuanyun's temper, so he deliberately provoked Ao Xuanyun, and at the same time provoked a fight between the two parties to balance the power of both sides.
"Old Gu, the fairy mother-in-law has just passed away, I don't want to fight with you, you are the dean of soul cultivation, I naturally know your soul power, you and I are fighting, but it's just half a catty and eight taels, what's the point!"
After all, Elder Xie was the one in charge of the soul coin minting money, and he was angry just now, but if it was really against the ancient elders, he was not sure of winning, so he spoke at this time, but he was much more low-key.
"City Lord Ao, although I heard that you are already the only person in the limelight in these twelve cities, and you have made my two sisters lose face in Shishan Town, why don't I play with you a few times today!"
"Sister, I see that you still let the eldest brother come first, I have always valued heroes and heroes, and I admire the courage and conceit of the city lord of Ao, but I have always been in the north of the twelve cities, along the sea, and I have never met the lord of Ao City, just now the city lord of the dragon has said, I have just been appointed as an elder, and I want to be close to everyone, how about I come to you first today!"
The yellow-faced student was very arrogant, but he didn't look at Ao Xuanyun in his eyes.
"Since you want to be close to other elders, why don't I accompany you, Brother Ao is not an elder!"
Elder Liang Gong has never seen such an arrogant person, but Ao Xuanyun is an exception, because Ao Xuanyun's analysis and judgment seems to have fulfilled everything, so Liang Gong Elder must ensure that Ao Xuanyun does not die, if Ao Xuanyun has any accidents, then the twelve cities must be really dangerous.
After Elder Liang Gong finished speaking, he stood up by himself, stretched out his hand to the yellow-faced sheng, and naturally walked into the main hall, not allowing others to stop him, and not wanting to listen to the persuasion of others.
"It's better to be respectful than to obey!"
The yellow-faced student looked stout, but he was very dexterous, and he had already stood opposite Elder Lianggong with a teleportation, and he was not timid at all.
"Two elders, if it is about martial arts, I will not stop it, but my twelve cities have always lived in harmony, so when I do it, I hope that the point will be up to it, and I will not hurt the spirit!"
When the Dragon City Lord said this, he agreed to the confrontation between the two parties, but this was a bit redundant, the soul masters fought each other, if they wanted to divide the victory and defeat without hurting the spirit body, how to do it, but everyone also knew it, but they all looked at the two of them.
Ao Xuanyun stood on the side of Elder Lianggong, but the bewitching princess stood on the side of the yellow-faced student, it seemed that the two did not give in, if there was an accident, it should be someone who helped each other, and the other elders were naturally happy to take a look, and they all relaxed, waiting for the two to fight, just like watching Ao Xuanyun and Elder Shu fight a few days ago.
Ao Xuanyun is face worried, this Lianggong Elder He knows the depth of soul power, but this yellow-faced life is unpredictable and has high soul power, and he should have come prepared, obviously he has an advantage, but he has already thought of the way back, today's battle, I am afraid that it will be a dish, and the big dish is still to come!
