Chapter 542: Cultivating the City Lord
The wind and the sun were beautiful, the sun was shining, and the soft warm wind was blowing, and on the tower of the Steel City, Yang Yi looked into the distance and felt the light spreading around.
"Brother Xiao Yi, the Lord of Liucheng is looking for you. At this moment, a lovely woman suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Ling'er, is there anything important?" Yang Yi asked.
"I heard that the Lord of Liucheng is about to cross the catastrophe, and he wants to explain the things in his hand and prepare to cross the catastrophe. Ling'er replied.
"It's been two years, and it's time to count the days. Yang Yi said silently, then flew down and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion with Ling'er.
"Hello Captain Yang, good Miss Ling'er. On the way to the City Lord's Mansion, Yang Yi and the others they met along the way greeted the two warmly, and even when they entered the City Lord's Mansion, they didn't need any waiting and notification, but were directly released.
The reason why the two of them have such prestige is still due to the turmoil in Steel City two years ago, which made the Free Mercenary Group and Yang Yi deeply imprinted in the hearts of everyone in Steel City.
After the turmoil in the Steel City, Wang Ye, Xiang Haoyu, Tang Hao and others left one after another, and only Ling'er stayed by Yang Yi's side and waited silently. At first, the Steel City was facing a situation of rectification, and after the Free Mercenary Group had made great contributions to the Steel City, Liu Taihe specially announced that Yang Yi would serve as the deputy city lord, responsible for the rectification of the Steel City, and enjoy the treatment of the city lord. Since then, Yang Yi's reputation has spread throughout the Steel City.
With Yang Yi's help, the rectification process of the Steel City was particularly fast, and it was completed in just a few months, at this time, everyone in the Steel City saw how superb his methods were, and even Liu Taihe was also highly praised, no wonder he was able to completely powder Ming Cheng's thirty-year plan in just one month.
Yang Yi's style and efficiency have been recognized by everyone in the Steel City, which has greatly accelerated the process of the Free Mercenary Group entering the Steel City, and in less than a year, the Free Mercenary Group Branch has been able to take orders. And there are so many orders that it is impossible to complete in a short period of time. However, with the help of Liu Taihe and the elite guards of the Dining City Lord's Mansion to join the Free Mercenary Group, all the orders were completed one by one.
Not only that, with the help of Blood Moon and Ren Tian, the Free Mercenary Regiment also successfully set up a branch in Blood City, and Ren Tian temporarily served as the head of the group. At first, the Free Mercenary Group had just entered the Blood City and suffered many difficulties, but they were all solved by the Love and Righteousness Building, and gradually got on the right track.
Now, two years have passed, and the Free Mercenary Regiment has made a name for itself in the Realm of Chaos through the two branches of Steel City and Blood City, and is loved by the masses. In order to expand his power and make the future of the Free Mercenary Group go further, Yang Yi also specially hired Steward Cao to come to the Chaos Lord, as the chief steward of the two cities, responsible for everything in the two major branches.
Along with Steward Cao was Wu Rui, who had successfully broken through the Emperor Realm at this time, and could officially take over Ren Tian's position and officially serve as the head of the Blood City. However, for the sake of safety, Yang Yi deliberately let Ren Tian take up the post of deputy head of the regiment, after all, Wu Rui had just arrived and was extremely unfamiliar with Blood City.
At the same time, Wu Rui's breakthrough also means that the free mercenary group has the qualification to advance to the seventh-level mercenary group, and after a simple certification and a series of procedures, the free mercenary group has finally been promoted to the seventh-level mercenary group, and its prestige is once again famous in the mainland.
"Knock, knock, knock..."
Yang Yi and Ling'er came to the study of the City Lord's Mansion and knocked on the door gently. It wasn't long before a soft sound came from inside.
"It's Yang
Commander?"
"Lord Liucheng, it's down there. Yang Yi replied respectfully.
"Come in. The soft voice came again.
When Yang Yi and the others pushed the door away, they saw people standing respectfully in important positions, and they all bowed slightly to Yang Yi and the others.
"Lord Liucheng, I heard that you are going out to cross the robbery?" Yang Yi sat on the lower right side of the Liutai River and asked.
"Well, right now, the city lord has felt the coming of the tribulation, and he must be fully prepared to cross the tribulation. Liutaihe replied.
"I wonder how long you're leaving?" Yang Yi continued.
"I don't know, it could take a year or two, it could take three or five years, or even longer. Liutaihe replied.
Yang Yi pondered for a moment, then asked again, "Is there a specific arrangement?"
"I have summoned you here today to discuss this matter. Liu Taihe smiled faintly.
Yang Yi looked at his flat smile, he had already guessed his thoughts, shook his head lightly and said, "City Lord Liu, don't you want to temporarily put this steel city under your control. ”
"What Head Yang said is very true, this is exactly the result of all of our consultations. Liu Taihe said with a smile.
Yang Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "I can temporarily manage the Steel City, but it will only be three years at most, and after three years, I will leave the Steel City." ”
"Three years? Liu Taihe thought to himself.
"Thank you Head Yang for your understanding, three years is enough. Liu Taihe smiled knowingly.
"You here listen to the order, from today on, Yang Yi will temporarily assume the position of the city lord of the steel city, and the orders given are like the city lords, and there must be no mistakes. Liu Taihe looked at his subordinates and ordered.
"Yes. Everyone present replied respectfully.
"City Lord Yang, do you think there is anything else you need to order?" Liu Taihe smiled inexplicably, as if he had succeeded in his efforts.
When Yang Yi saw him like that, he instantly felt deceived, shook his head and smiled bitterly: "What else can I order, you have arranged it." ”
"Then it's hard for you, three years later, I will come on time to take over your shift. Liu Taihe walked gently to Yang Yi's side, patted him gently, whispered a word in his ear, and walked out of the study majestically, and then flew away.
"Hey, I'm fooled, I'm still too soft-hearted. When Yang Yi heard this, he was slightly stunned, at this time he had already realized that he had been fooled. It is true that the Liutaihe Tribulation came, but during this time, it was completely possible to come back after the successful tribulation, and it would add up to a maximum of one month, which would not take three years at all.
However, when Liu Taihe flew away, he still secretly sent a message to Yang Yi. This sentence made him instantly understand the true intention of Liu Taehe.
"Hehehehe, Brother Xiaoyi, you asked for it. Ling'er said with a grin.
"City Lord Yang, I also hope you can understand. Since the city lord Liu took office, he has hardly gone out, and has been staying in the city lord's mansion to preside over things. Now that the city lord of Liu is about to cross the catastrophe, it is inevitable that he wants to go out for fun, and he also asks the city lord Yang to understand. At this time, a middle-aged man in a red robe spoke.
"You are Chiyan, right?" Yang Yi looked at the red-robed man in front of him, and when he saw that this person was an Emperor Realm powerhouse, he asked.
"It's the subordinates. Chi Yan replied.
"You will now immediately turn yourself
During these three years, you will serve as the personal guard of the city lord, and you will report tomorrow. Yang Yi ordered.
When Chi Yan heard this, his face sank, and then he replied respectfully: "Yes." ”
"You go down, and if you have anything important in the future, you will come to the Lei Zun Mansion to report. Yang Yi glanced at the others who were a little gloating, gave an order, and turned to leave.
After Yang Yi left, the others breathed a sigh of relief, although they were basically Emperor Realm powerhouses, they didn't dare to make a mistake. First, Yang Yi, as the lord of the city, has the power to kill them. Second, although Yang Yi did not break through the Emperor Realm, his strength was unfathomable, and the turmoil two years ago was enough to prove his terrifying combat power.
"Chiyan, you shouldn't mention which pot, look, you've offended people. A middle-aged man who had never been at odds with Chi Yan said tauntingly.
"Get out, I don't know anything, don't look for trouble. Chi Yan roared angrily.
"Hahaha, there's a lot of anger. But Lao Tzu is too lazy to bother with you, anyway, your good days are over. The middle-aged man laughed and turned to leave.
"Brother Chiyan, don't worry about it, maybe the Yang City Lord has taken a fancy to you, so he asked you to be his personal guard. A middle-aged man who had a good relationship with Chiyan opened his mouth to comfort.
"Don't talk about it, Lao Tzu is very upset, and he is angry when he thinks of this. Chi Yan let out a sigh of indignation and turned to leave. The people who looked at him and left angrily sneered and were helpless. As everyone knows, it is Yang Yi's decision now that has brought a different life to Chi Yan, which makes him grateful and unforgettable to death.
"Brother Xiao Yi, why did you want that person to be your personal guard, shouldn't you be angry because of what he said just now? Ling'er, who walked out of the City Lord's Mansion, finally couldn't help her curiosity and asked.
"Ling'er, what nonsense are you talking about, am I such a person? Yang Yi shook his head lightly and smiled.
"Hehehehe, Ling'er knows that Brother Xiaoyi is not such a person. Ling'er said with a grin.
"Actually, the city lord of Liu secretly transmitted the news before leaving, and asked me to do him a favor. Yang Yi smiled lightly.
"What's the busy?" Ling'er said curiously.
"Little fool, of course you want me to help that Chiyan open up. Yang Yi gently scratched Ling'er's little nose and smiled dotingly.
"Ao, I see, Lord Liu is planning to let him take his place. Ling'er understood instantly.
"That's right, that's the reason. Do you really think that the Lord of the Willow City will return to the City of Steel in three years to take over the position of the City Lord again, don't think about it. This is just a pretense, just so that I can help him train his successor, so that he can travel around the continent and really see the wonderful and changing world. Yang Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly.
"Brother Xiaoyi, it turns out that you have already guessed just now, no wonder you didn't directly refuse just now, and told about three years. Ling'er worshipped.
"Actually, when you told me, you only guessed a little. If it weren't for the fact that the Lord of Liu City secretly transmitted a message to me before leaving, I really wouldn't have guessed. Yang Yi said helplessly.
"So that's the case, it seems that the Lord of Liucheng is also well-intentioned. Ling'er enlightened.
"As long as he is still well-intentioned, it is obviously me who suffers, okay, I still have to teach a handful of urine, what a tiring job. Yang Yi complained.
"Hey, hey, Brother Xiaoyi, who made you suffer for yourself. Ling'er said with a grin.
"You. Yang Yi rubbed Ling'er's hair, smiled, and pulled her towards the snack street.
