Among the eighteen cities above Jingchen's fiefdom, each city had at least two or three relatively large families, and they received this invitation from Jingchen, the third prince of the Holy Spirit Empire, to attend the inauguration ceremony of the new lord in Gama City at the end of February.

Originally, this celebration was understandable, after all, the new lord was inaugurated, and these families with some forces in the local area should indeed participate, whether it was to please the new lord, or to be familiar, it was inevitable to go, otherwise, if I didn't go, and other families in the same city went, I am afraid that my life in this city would not be good.

But every family, especially the leader of the family, has heard of one thing, that is, this new lord, His Royal Highness the Third Prince of the Empire, has no power in his hands, because this Jingchen is not the biological son of Emperor Lingjia, but just a godson, and after Emperor Lingjia ordered the withdrawal of the army, he only left him with a thousand people.

Although this territory of only eighteen cities is not large, and the surrounding areas are all Holy Spirit Empire, and there is no need to consider the issue of guarding, no matter how people look at it, it is not enough to even maintain law and order in various places, so many families have begun to plan to clear out other forces in their cities, no matter what, His Royal Highness the Third Prince of the Empire should not have so much time and not so much energy to take care of himself.

It's a pity that their wishful thinking, at the moment when the pale golden puppet appeared, was completely shattered, and the leaders of each family knew that perhaps, this Third Highness did not have enough troops in his hands to eradicate all the forces of their family, but it was easy to kill the core members of their families, not to mention that their families, even if they were once known as the four major families of Gama, the strongest existence was only the seventh level.

But this is just a legend, many people don't believe it, they really can't believe that a seventh-level powerhouse, a strong man who is strong enough to have a place on the continent, would actually live in this place of Gama, however, many people in these families know that there are sixth-level powerhouses among the four major families, and there is more than one. It's just that level six and level seven are not the same concept at all, according to some ancient books, a level seven puppet is enough to deal with a level seven ordinary powerhouse, so the strength of this new lord, these people also have to re-evaluate.

What makes these patriarchs even more jealous is that they received invitations at the same time on almost the same day, obviously, these invitations cannot be sent by a puppet, even if this puppet is a seventh-level puppet, even if this puppet flies all over the fiefdom for more than ten hours, but it can't make all families receive invitations at the same time, so the leaders of these families have to face a fact that they can't believe that this new lord has at least dozens of seventh-level puppets in his hands.

Dozens!

This is a number that will make these patriarchs tremble even if they imagine it, this number represents a power that is enough for this new lord to destroy all discordant voices in a short period of time, no one can believe that the legendary boy who is less than twenty years old has such terrifying strength in his hands.

But what happened next, they had to believe that the Nangong family and the Star Clan, these two families with a history even longer than the history of the Gama Kingdom, were completely wiped out overnight, and after that night, all the people of the two clans seemed to have evaporated from the world, and no one saw them appear again.

And some people in Gama City who know the inside story, such as some people from the Oba family, even know that Gama City that night was very unpeaceful, first more than a dozen pale golden figures pierced the sky, and then there was a battle that even those core members and elders of the Oba family recalled, they felt trembling all over, it was simply a one-sided massacre, in the face of absolute strength, the Nangong family and the Xing family had almost no room for resistance.

In February 9004 of the continental calendar, for all ordinary people living in the central provinces of the former Gama Kingdom, it was no different, and the imaginary chaos after the Great War did not come, and everyone still lived their own lives, leaving early and returning late every day, with an income that was not very rich but enough to support their families.

But for these eighteen cities, for those families who received the invitation, this is an extremely depressing time, since the troops of the Holy Spirit Empire withdrew, and handed over the management of this territory to the third prince, the security of this area has suddenly improved, although there are still some defeated old departments of the Gama Kingdom, planning to disturb social security in various ways, but unfortunately, I don't know why, these people will always disappear unconsciously, as if they never appeared.

During this period of time, this territory under the jurisdiction of the Three Princes was even more peaceful than the surrounding Holy Spirit Empire Territory, and many well-informed people knew that most of the rebels were either absorbed by the Three Princes or fled from this area overnight, although no one knew what means the Three Princes used to force these stragglers to fear, but they saw this kind of result that no one could imagine.

Seeing this situation, many families began to prepare gifts, and personnel were ready to leave for Gama City.

Whether it is out of fear of its strength, or the affirmation of its status, they dare not not participate in the inauguration ceremony of the three highnesses, no matter what family, once they refuse to participate in this celebration, they will inevitably be "valued" by the new lord, and it is difficult to guarantee that their families will not follow in the footsteps of the two major families, they don't believe that the three highnesses who can destroy the two major families silently will have nothing to do with them.

In this calm atmosphere that did not look like after the war, time passed slowly, and more and more family leaders came to Gama City, and many people walked around the families in Gama City that were somewhat connected with the past in the name of visiting, visiting, etc., especially the Elven Moon family and the Oba family, which were still thriving among the four major families, and more people came.

"Brother Yueran, I heard that you have a good relationship with His Royal Highness Jingchen, for the sake of our classmates, do you have any inside information to reveal to me, and the younger brother must not forget the support of the elder brother. Saying that, a guy who looked older than Yue Ran, vaguely stuffed a small bag to Yue Ran, Yue Ran pinched the small bag without moving, and where he started, he clearly felt the texture of a space ring.

Glancing at the visitor quite meaningfully, Yue Ran really couldn't remember when he had such a classmate, or junior, but it didn't matter, I saw Yue Ran smile and said, "Although I don't have any inside information here, but as far as I heard, this time His Royal Highness Jingchen seems to be announcing a big plan above the celebration, and this plan is closely related to your seventeen city families, I heard that His Royal Highness wants to decentralize power." ”

"What?!"

The person who saw Yue Ran in that relationship was also a head of the family, and he actually had nothing to do with Yue Ran, but Yue Ran did have a classmate at the beginning, who was a side heir in his family, so he borrowed the name of the other party to find Yue Ran, but he didn't expect that Yue Ran still took care of the "old relationship" very much, and really let him in, and told him such "important" news.

At this moment, the face of the head of the family was cloudy, he really couldn't believe his ears, but looking at Yue Ran's confident appearance, it didn't seem like he was joking with him, so he immediately asked in a very unconfident whisper, "Brother Yue Ran, what do you mean by this, little brother...... The younger brother didn't understand. After speaking, he also looked at Yueran with a slightly innocent look on his face.

Seeing the face of the person who came, Yue Ran couldn't help but curse in her heart, how could she be such an idiot who couldn't understand anything if she could become the head of a clan, the thing in front of her obviously wanted to know more, and she was embarrassed to ask directly. However, Yue Ran did not expose the thoughts of the people, that day, Jing Chen had already told Yue Ran his thoughts, and he also guessed that his relationship with the Elf Yue family could not be hidden, of course, Jing Chen did not intend to hide it, and this kind of unwinding thing was naturally done by Jing Chen to help Yue Ran.

Yue Ran sighed as if she was a little embarrassed, her eyes pretended to glance around, lowered her voice, and said in the person's ear, "Your Highness is wise and martial, and wants each city to be governed by one family, or several families, Your Highness is only responsible for promulgating the most basic decrees and regulations that all ruling families need to follow, and the rest is arranged by each family." ”

Hearing this, the person who came was first shocked, and then frowned slightly, when he first heard what Yue Ran said, this person was overjoyed, "the family rules his own city", that like him, the head of the family, undoubtedly the emperor of the land, can simply say that he can do whatever he wants. But obviously, this His Royal Highness Jingchen will not let these families elevate themselves, so this decree and the regulations that each family needs to abide by may not be too lenient, and Yue Ran did not mention the matter of the defenders, and I don't know who is leading the armies of these cities.

The army, no matter what time it is, has an absolute role, if this army is also led by their own family in the city, then they have really become the emperor of the soil, if this army is firmly held in the hands of Jingchen, this power will be greatly reduced.

However, he didn't want to think too much about it, after all, just being able to govern the city where he was located was enough to make every cell in his body cheer, and as for the affairs of the army, he had no intention of rebelling, and if the army was also in the hands of his own family, I am afraid that it would only add to the trouble.

And at this moment, the head of the family remembered the pale golden puppet who came to deliver the invitation that day, even if the puppet did not release the momentum in his body, but this good family owner still felt trembling, with such terrifying strength and absolutely loyal to Jingchen's puppet protection, what capital does a family like him have to compete with Jingchen.

Thinking about these clearly, he smiled flatteringly at Yue Ran and said, "Thank you Brother Yue Ran for your support, when you can use your little brother in the future, your little brother and the clansmen will definitely do your best." Saying that, he arched his hand to Yueran, and after Yueran nodded like a "send-off", the head of the family, who had already received the "internal" news, left Yue's house with brisk steps.

He still has a lot to do, such as making sure that he is the only family in power in his city......
