Chapter 128: The City Lord
"It seems that the city lord of Xiahou is determined to win?"
"Although the disciples of this city lord are not very competitive, they have at least reached level eight within the prescribed age limit, as for what kind of results can be achieved in this competition......?
During the 10-year competition, it had already been stipulated that the participating disciples of all sects and sects could not be more than twenty-five years old.
But looking at the disciples brought by Xiahou Lie, they were all young people in their twenties, although they did not exceed the specified number of years of the competition, but they were almost the age group that reached the upper limit.
"Cultivating to a level does not mean everything, Dao City has always been a challenge to leapfrog the level, and the theory of rank is like a fictitious in the eyes of Dao Cheng!"
Xiahou Lie's face changed, and then he laughed again.
"The fast knife of the Shen family in the knife city is famous all over the world! It is a first-class stunt! My children naturally dare not compare, and I hope that in the competition, I hope that Brother Shen will raise his noble hand!"
Shen Wuxing sneered and said no more, Xiahou Lie was bored, embarrassed to snort, and walked to his seat, but his seat was under Shen Wuxing, separated by two seats.
At this time, Ye Nineteen vaguely guessed the distance of this seat, it should be the seat arranged by Dabi, the closer it is to the jade seat in the middle, it means that the position of this ranking will be higher!
I have long heard that among the two cities, one sword and four families, Jade Shatter City can definitely be ranked in the forefront, but the position where he is sitting is several times behind Shen Wuxing!
The position where Shen Wuxing is sitting should be second only to the Goddess Peak and the Tibetan Mansion, which is already the third position, and what kind of family sect is the seat vacated between them?
While pondering, I heard a bell ring from outside the main hall, but this bell only rang three times!
"Heavenly Death City, City Lord, Zhan Sanfeng!Nangong Family, Family Master, Nangong Jian!Xuanyuan Family, Family Master, Xuanyuan Hanyun!Tuoba Family, Family Master, Tuoba Feiyu!Baili Family, Family Master, Baili Zhantian, ......!"
This time, I only heard the footsteps outside the main hall, and it seemed that a large group of people were walking towards the main hall.
The old man in the middle was wearing a green robe and a cloth robe, which was very fitting.
The old man in the middle is the city lord of Heavenly Death City, Zhan Sanfeng.
In the Hundred Cities Alliance, the status of Heavenly Death City is second only to Sword City, and it is also one of the permanent deputy alliance leaders in the Hundred Cities Alliance!
If it is divided according to the sphere of influence, it even surpasses Sword City! It's just because Shen Wuxing's personal force is too strong, so he ranks second in the Hundred Cities Alliance.
On the left hand side of Zhan Sanfeng, there was an old man with a slight fortune, this old man had a smile on his face, but he looked like a good old man. There is no kind of majesty that people are afraid of, this old man is the head of the Nangong family, Nangong Jian.
Don't look at his smiling appearance, in fact, this person is resolute in nature, and he is ruthless and ruthless in dealing with his enemies.
It is rumored that among the Hundred Cities Alliance, this person's scheming is one of the best! At the beginning, the head of the four great families was originally the Xuanyuan family!
However, since Nangong Jian took over the position of the head of the family, it only took a few decades for the Nangong family to become the head of the family! The Xuanyuan family was suppressed to the point that it could only be relegated to second place.
Next to Nangong Jian was a thin old man in his fifties and sixties, but he was the youngest of the five! This old man was half a step back than Nangong Jian, and his demeanor was even more respectful to Nangong Jian.
This thin old man is the Tuoba family, Tuoba Feiyu who has just ascended to the position of head of the family for a few years.
In the past few years, the Tuoba family, under the leadership of Tuoba Feiyu, has always followed behind Nangong Jian, firmly bound its own interests to the Nangong family, and all external responses are even more to Nangong Jian!
In the Hundred Cities Alliance, everyone knew that the two families of Nangong and Tuoba were the most staunch allies.
However, there are slightly fewer Sacred Domain powerhouses among the Tuoba families, and they can only rank third among the four major families!
The first person next to Zhan Sanfeng's right hand is Xuanyuan Hanyun, Xuanyuan Hanyun has thick bones, a burly figure, a Chinese face, straight eyebrows and eyes, and a sense of righteousness!
Xuanyuan Hanyun is just like his appearance, it is said that he is extremely upright in the Hundred Cities Alliance, and his temperament is even more upright.
It is precisely because he disdains to use trickery that he has been excluded and suppressed among the four great families over the years! From the first of the original four great families, he has become the second now.
I saw that he was holding a giant sword in his hand, and that sword was the world's famous Heaven Slashing Sword.
Next to him was an old man with a white beard and listlessness, who seemed to be half-asleep and half-awake, and even had some difficulty walking.
This listless old man is the head of the Baili family, a hundred miles of battle.
Don't look at him listless, he seems to be so old that he even has a hard time walking, but those who know him understand that he is a real second-order Sacred Domain master!
It's just that although Baili Zhantian's own cultivation is extremely powerful, he is lacking in the management of the family! The Baili family has decayed very badly over the years, and the good and bad in the family are uneven, and there have been no too amazing geniuses over the years.
And the family is fighting with each other, and they are fighting each other, if it weren't for his support, I'm afraid that they would have been squeezed out of the four great families! Even so, the Baili family is also at the bottom of the four great families......
In the early days of the Hundred Cities Alliance, the four great families had made a covenant between their ancestors, and they all had a relationship with each other by marriage, and they were even more monolithic at the beginning, and they had a pivotal position in the Hundred Cities Alliance.
However, after thousands of years, there are naturally more conflicts of interest between each other, and gradually there are some dissensible ones. Now the Nangong family and the Tuoba family are tied together, but the Baili family is closer to the Xuanyuan family.
Although people who don't know the details will still think that the four great families are still monolithic, in fact, they have been fighting with each other for many times over the years in order to compete for the position of the helm......
As soon as Xiahou Lie saw them, he had already stepped forward to greet them, and greeted all the families and city lords with a smile on his face, but Shen Wuxing closed his eyes and ignored them.
However, when these five people saw Shen Wuxing sitting there, they all stepped forward to greet him.
Shen Wuxing responded lightly, but when Xuanyuan Hanyun stepped forward, Shen Wuxing corrected his expression and said a few more words to him.
This is not because of how high Xuanyuan Hanyun's cultivation is, but because of Xuanyuan Hanyun's temperament, which makes Shen Wuxing look okay.
After each of the five people, there was a line, but they were all children of each family, and among these disciples, there were even several female disciples.
Ye Nineteen had naturally never seen these world-famous characters, so he specially looked at them, and at this time, he saw the three peaks of the Heavenly Death City, and sat down with Shen Wuxing first.
Sitting next to him was the smiling Nangong Jian.
At this time, Nangong Jian was talking to Xiahou Lie quietly with a smile on his face, looking at the state of the two, it seemed that they were talking happily.
Sitting on the seventh chair next to Xiahou Lie down was Xuanyuan Hanyun, who was descending from Feiyu in turn, while the old Baili Zhantian was sitting at the end.
As soon as Baili Zhantian sat down, he closed his eyes, as if he was resting because he was tired, but after a while, there was actually a snoring sound.
Hearing the snoring, Nangong Jian smiled at Xia Houlie with disdain, and whispered to Xia Houlie: "The head of the Baili family seems to be really tired, he just sat down and fell asleep, it's true, at such an age, what kind of excitement do you have to make?" It's better to send a disciple and just go through the motions, anyway, the Baili family hasn't seen any improvement over the years, just a role at the bottom......"
"What Brother Nangong said makes a lot of sense, if it weren't for the cover of the three of you, I'm afraid that the Baili family would have been removed from the four great families......
"That being said, we can't let these people take it all the time! The rise of the Shangguan family over the years has been very rapid, and after this ten-year competition, our four major families will hold a meeting, and some positions must be occupied by capable people, if not, let him retire early, otherwise the other families who are empty and tired will also be looked down upon......
Nangong Jian was already very dissatisfied with the Baili family, because Baili Zhantian had a close personal relationship with Xuanyuan Hanyun.
Xiahou Lie's status in the Hundred Cities Alliance should not be underestimated, and in order to unite external forces over the years, Nangong Jian has shown favor to him, and he has also had several trade cooperations, so the relationship between the two is not bad!
These words were deliberately said in front of Xia Hou Lie, but also to show that he did not have the slightest precaution against Xia Hou Lie, but treated him as a close friend!
The Shangguan family in Nangong Jian's mouth is also an old force in the Hundred Cities Alliance, but because there were too few Sacred Domain masters in the family a few years ago, it has not been able to squeeze into the upper power center.
But in recent years, there have been many geniuses in the family, and they have emerged, and the family power is gradually surpassing the Baili family!
Moreover, in order to squeeze into the four major families, the Shangguan family flattered Nangong Jian, who is now at the helm, in every possible way, so in Nangong Jian's heart, he already had the plan to let the Shangguan family replace the Baili family.
Although Nangong Jian's words deliberately lowered his voice, how could a few people nearby not hear it with their cultivation?
But this is a matter between the four great families, how can others interject Xuanyuan Hanyun snorted heavily and glared at Nangong Jian angrily.
But Baili Zhantian seemed to be really asleep, and he didn't even say the slightest thing, and he was still snoring loudly.
After Nangong Jian heard Xuanyuan Hanyun's cold snort, he seemed to realize that he had said a little too much, but he didn't look at Xuanyuan Hanyun!
