And the lord of the city can only differ in status.

In fact, the binding force of the city lord on the major forces no longer exists, especially when encountering such a pass, the problem of having no heirs makes the major forces like fish that smells fishy.

Those who rushed wanted to pounce and divide the city lord's mansion cleanly.

Of course, because the City Lord's Mansion also has a special ability, the major forces don't dare to go too far, and can only follow the rules.

This ability is also left by the first generation of city lords of Sleepless City, and only each generation of city lords can master the ability, what it is, only the city lord and the major power lords know, because there is this limitation.

To a certain extent, the major forces are also quite regular.

But despite this, the City Lord's Mansion also had to make a compromise, that is, to summon a son-in-law.

Under pressure from all sides, the city lord had to agree to this request.

Of course, this recruitment of sons-in-law is not a casual recruitment, and the entire process is carried out under the joint supervision of the city lord and several major forces.

To this end, the forces of various parties have also held consultations.

Eventually, a rule of law is formed.

As far as its purpose is concerned, it is still to divide the power of the city lord's mansion.

This is exactly what the old man Xu said, the lively things in the city that never sleeps.

"What kind of way is the son-in-law selection carried out?" Li Qiushui asked aloud.

Obviously, she was more interested in this, or rather in Yuan Yi's attitude.

Since this matter has been encountered by them, it means that this matter cannot be avoided.

So it's better to prepare early.

"There is an ancient ruin near the city that never sleeps, which was discovered recently, and this time the ruins are used as the selection venue!

After the investigation of the big people in the city, this relic should be the production station of an ancient sect, the puppet sect!

Therefore, the winner of this time is the one who can obtain the puppet production method. The golden-armored guard nodded.

This matter has now spread almost throughout the entire city that never sleeps, and if you really want to talk about it, there may only be people like Yuan Yi who just came, and they don't know the situation.

Anyone who has spent two or three days in the city that never sleeps will be able to hear the news.

"And are there any restrictions on this ruin, and how dangerous is it?" asked Yuan Yi aloud.

Puppet Sect, to be honest, he wasn't very interested.

But he is not interested, there must be someone who is interested, in this case, then the two sides may have the need to exchange, and there may be a chance to get what they want at that time.

"Yes, after several adults' exploration, it can be determined that this ruin can only be entered by people below the Shengang Realm, and the age limit is under twenty-five!" said the golden-armored guard with a look of emotion.

I don't know if he was sorry that he couldn't enter this ruin to serve the city lord or if it was something else.

"So that's the case, isn't it possible that there isn't such a suitable person in the City Lord's Mansion?" Yuan Yi was a little puzzled, it was impossible for the huge City Lord's Mansion to not even find such a person.

If this is the case, I am afraid that it is impossible to negotiate this condition with these family forces.

"Of course not, it's just that those big families have been prepared for this for a long time, so although there are such people in the City Lord's Mansion, they can't compete with the big families in terms of strength.

After all, the City Lord's Mansion not only had to seize the inheritance secret method in the ruins, but also had to face the obstruction of several major family forces. The golden-armored guards were also full of bitterness.

Not to mention the difficulty in recruiting itself, because most people know the predicament of the City Lord's Mansion, so they are more inclined to the forces of several major families.

However, in terms of some solicitation conditions, the conditions given by the major family forces are much more generous.

In addition, there are the kind of people who take advantage of the fire to rob, and those who take advantage of the crisis of the City Lord's Mansion to want empty gloves and white wolves.

Therefore, the situation of the City Lord's Mansion is not good for now.

Therefore, when the golden armor guards saw Yuan Yi and his party, they would have such a reaction, especially the body of the medicine god, as long as they took medicine, they could be improved, and the city lord's mansion had no one all these years.

Therefore, the accumulated cultivation resources are relatively large, so they can completely help Li Qiushui improve.

But in the current situation, even if the City Lord's Mansion on the side of the golden armor guards did not spare their own resources, it would only be necessary for Li Qiushui to be willing to join them.

"Then I don't know how many major forces in the city are fighting against the City Lord's Mansion now, is it possible that there are no forces in the city that are inclined to the City Lord's Mansion?" Yuan Yi felt that the situation here should be very complicated.

After all, if there is no force in the city that is willing to help the City Lord's Mansion, then this City Lord's Mansion must have something that makes people deviate from morality.

"Yes, yes, but in the face of the four major families in the city, they don't dare to support it openly, so they can only say that secretly, give some help, after all, once they are discovered by the four major families, they will be jointly attacked!"

"And the City Lord's Mansion has no way to deal with the attacks of the four major families at the same time, so the City Lord asked them to hide for the time being, waiting for the opportunity, and they were not exposed. "The golden-armored guards are digging out their hearts and lungs.

Of course, this may also be one of the conditions that must be put forward to recruit Yuan Yi, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to win Yuan Yi's trust just by virtue of some empty words.

"I see. Yuan Yi nodded.

"Childe, it's time to get there!" reminded the golden-armored guard.

Yuan Yi raised his head and looked at the attic in front of him, it was indeed very good, and the environment was quiet.

Walking into the courtyard, every scene and object inside is also reflected in Yuan Yi's eyes, it is indeed a courtyard that can be called a good place.

The mountains and rivers are beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant.

In this bustling city that never sleeps, it is really not easy to create such a quiet place.

It may be that only the City Lord's Mansion and the four major families can have such strength.

Of course, there's nothing to appreciate here.

After all, this strength doesn't mean anything, and the next thing is the real highlight.

Because strength is the real guarantee of the root of all this.

"I don't know if these four major forces are all the four major families?" Yuan Yi asked aloud as he walked.

"The Zhao family, the Wang family, the Lu family, the Qiu family!"

"These four major families also have a long history, and they can basically be said to be the families that have always existed from the establishment of the Sleepless City to the present, so they know more about some of the secrets of the Sleepless City!"

The golden-armored guard replied.

"By the way, after talking about it for so long, we still don't know what your city lord's name is?" Li Qiushui interjected again, but it didn't seem to be the real theme.

Her concern for this city lord is indeed a bit heavy.

Even the gold-armored guards looked at her a little strangely.

Of course, he may also understand, but in this world, the strong have a lot of dependents.

"The city lord's surname is Ji!" the golden-armored guard respectfully responded.

It seems that when he says the name of the city lord, he immediately becomes different.

I don't know what twists and turns are there, if a person can become so religious just by brainwashing, then Yuan Yi can only say that this city lord is too terrible.

"Since the chief of the guard knows that the situation of the City Lord's Mansion is not good, then why did he choose the City Lord's Mansion instead of the four major families? Of course, I just asked, if there is anything inconvenient, please forgive the chief of the guard.

After all, good birds choose trees to perch, and the chief of the guard should understand this truth better than me!" Yuan Yi said with a smile.

"It's not something to hide, the city lord saved my life!" the golden-armored guard chief looked determined.

"I see, it seems that the city lord is really a kind-hearted person!" Yuan Yi sighed.

Looking at the tasks provided by the system, Yuan Yi was also a little leisurely.

He asked so much, of course, he was not interested in what kind of city lord, after all, he had never seen it, and he was interested in talking about something.

You must know that online dating is all about seeing the light and dying.

As for the reason why you ask so much, it is because of the tasks given by the system.

I haven't released a task system for a long time, but today I suddenly gave Yuan Yi a task.

[Main Quest: Save the City Lord's Mansion (1)]

"Mission Name: Turn the Tide and Save the City Lord's Mansion"

"Mission Information: The City Lord's Mansion has fallen into the conspiracy of the four major families, please help the City Lord's Mansion forces to get out of the encirclement of the four major families, crack their conspiracy, and give them a heavy blow!"

"Quest Reward: Cultivation is two levels higher!"

Note: "This task is a phased task, after completing the first step of the task, you can start the next task!"

Yuan Yi, who saw this task, was also blindfolded, what the hell, didn't he say a good ruin trial?

How did it become a cracking conspiracy, and it has nothing to do with the ruins.

Could it be that before this, what other conspiracy did the four major families have against the City Lord's Mansion that they needed to crack by themselves?

In this regard, Yuan Yi felt that his eyes were completely black, and he didn't know anything.

"Of course, Lord Castle is the object of my affection!"

Right here, in the bamboo forest over there, there was a very discordant sound.

"I've seen Nangong Gongzi!" When the golden armor guard saw this person, he didn't say anything, just bowed, and then said the name of this person.

"No courtesy, no courtesy, salute later, when I marry your city lord, I will be the city lord at that time, and it will not be too late for you to salute again!" Nangong Gongzi also waved his hand, showing great benevolence.

But listening to his words, people can't feel good.

This guy is definitely a staff maker.

"What kind of people are these three, this courtyard is not something that a cat or a dog can come in!" Nangong Gongzi looked at Yuan Yi and the three of them with great disdain, of course, to be precise, it should be Yuan Yi alone.

And Huo Ling'er and Li Qiushui next to Yuan Yi made his eyes shine.

"Nangong Gongzi, these three are the distinguished guests of the city lord, and the city lord will come to see them in a while!" The golden-armored guards also felt the trickiness of this Nangong prince.

If it weren't for Yuan Yi, he really didn't want to come.
