Chapter 20: The Succession Ceremony of the City Lord
The reason why casual cultivation is casual cultivation is because they can't stand the constraints of their family forces.
Lin Ye understood their feelings.
He didn't want to waste this huge force, so Ye Lou's existence was a good way.
Time flowed, and a month passed quickly.
Today is Lin Ye's twelfth birthday, and it is also the day he succeeds to the position of city lord.
The appointment of the new city lord is a very important moment for the entire Wyvern City.
Therefore, as early as more than a month ago, as long as the strong and powerful people in Flying Dragon City had a little reputation, they all accepted an invitation from the City Lord's Mansion to participate in this City Lord Succession Ceremony.
And Lin Ye quietly returned to the City Lord's Mansion three days ago.
When the morning sun rose, a large number of people from the City Lord's Mansion were sent to the central square of Wyvern City.
This time, Lin Ye's succession ceremony will be held there.
In order to prevent accidents, Zongtu even mobilized half of the guards to go to the square, and the rest of the men and horses were also vigilant, ready for all possible dangers.
Surrounded by Zong Tu and Hua Ran, Lin Ye arrived in the central square wearing a white robe.
At this time, the square was already full of people.
Lin Ye ordered Hua Ran to lead the guards to evacuate the ordinary civilians, but there were still many people watching from afar.
This succession ceremony will definitely not go well, and there may even be a vicious battle, and he doesn't want to affect those innocent civilians.
"You're all set, aren't you?"
Behind Lin Ye, Zong Tu asked Hua Ran in a low voice.
"Don't worry, if the Han family wants to use public opinion to ascend to the position of city lord today, it will never succeed!"
Hua Ran said firmly.
"It's just that the Zhao family doesn't know if they will make a move today?"
A hint of worry appeared in Zong Tu's eyes.
Although the Han family should not be underestimated, all the means are used on the bright side, and they can still come up with countermeasures.
But the Zhao family ......
In the past two years, the Zhao family has been a little low-key.
No one would believe that they had no idea about the position of the city lord, but whether it was in the open or in the dark, they had no plans.
This is very counterintuitive.
Unless, they have absolute certainty that they can take the position of city lord from Lin Ye's hands.
Zong Tu and Hua Ran glanced at each other.
Both of them secretly made up their minds that no matter what the price, they would stop the Han family and the Zhao family.
A huge central square, with guards stationed on the perimeter, encloses the entire square.
In addition, there were four large armies of guards stationed in the four directions of the central square.
No matter what happens in that position, it can ensure that at least two armies can rush to the aid quickly!
In the center of the square, there is a high platform.
At this moment, the important people of the City Lord's Mansion were all sitting on the high platform.
Hundreds of chairs are placed under the high platform.
These chairs are provided for representatives of major forces or powerful people to attend the succession ceremony.
As time passed, the seats under the high platform began to be occupied.
Even outside the encirclement formed by the city guards, there were a large number of civilians watching.
"Look, the people of the Han family have arrived!"
Whether it was the civilians outside the encirclement or the strong people in the square, their eyes were all focused on a team at this moment.
That's the Han family's centaurs!
There were not many people from the Han family who came to participate in the ceremony this time, but each of them shocked everyone's eyes.
"That's the one wearing a black leather coat, it's Han Jichuan, the head of the Han family!"
"The one next to him is Han Shui, the great elder of the Han family!"
"That's not right, the head of the Han family and the Great Elder, why did they all go behind that old man, who is the old man at the front?"
He ...... He is the ancestor of the Han family - Han Cang!"
The audience was in an uproar.
Unexpectedly, at this succession ceremony, the three Nine Heavenly powerhouses of the Han family all came.
Especially the ancestor of the Han family, who is now a figure standing at the peak of Flying Dragon City.
He hasn't been in most people's eyes for decades, but he didn't expect to come today.
"Where's Miss Han Fei?"
"Why didn't Miss Han Fei come?"
The next moment, many people began to look around again.
Now Han Fei has a very high reputation in Flying Dragon City, and she did not appear in the Han family's team, which immediately caused many people to be puzzled.
On the high platform, Hua Ran whispered to his deputy Mu Yuan: "Han Fei didn't show up, tell me to go down and prepare for the Han family's trouble!"
"Yes!"
Mu Yuan responded, and immediately stepped down from the stage and rushed towards the army stationed outside the square.
"The Zhao family is also here, look!"
After the Han family's team took their seats, the appearance of another team also attracted everyone's attention.
It's just that the Zhao family only sent one Nine Heavens powerhouse this time, and that is the head of the Zhao family, Zhao Feihu!
The Zhao family only has two Nine Heavenly powerhouses, and the ancestor of the Zhao family, who everyone is looking forward to, has not appeared.
The arrival of the Zhao family is a little worthless compared to the momentum of the Han family.
But Zong Tu and Hua Ran, who were on the high platform, completely focused their eyes on Han Feihu.
Han Feihu is burly and always has a sincere smile on his face.
People who don't understand, the first time they see him, they will think that this is a good old man.
But Zong Tu and Hua Ran know very well that this guy is simply a master who eats people and does not spit out bones!
In this succession ceremony, the most threatening thing is not the Han family, but the Zhao family!
"The succession ceremony of the city lord has officially begun!"
On the high platform, a deafening shout rang out.
Suddenly, the audience fell silent, and all eyes converged on the high platform.
"Please Emperor Xia!"
A sculpture, respectfully lifted to a high platform, stands in a position where all can see.
The sculpture is lifelike and is a handsome young man.
As soon as the sculpture of the man appeared, all the people sitting below stood up.
Even though it was just a sculpture, no one at the scene dared to show the slightest disrespect.
This man is the only god of the human race today, and he is also the ruler of the Great Xia Dynasty - Emperor Xia!
The Xia Emperor protected the entire human race and was supported by all the people of the Great Xia Dynasty.
It is precisely because of his existence that in the past three thousand years, the human race has been able to stand tall and prosper in the battle with the demon race!
It is said that the realm of Emperor Xia has already reached the level of leaving this world.
But for the sake of the people of the Great Xia Dynasty, he chose to stay.
For three thousand years, he has protected the human race of this world without regrets.
When facing the sculpture, a trace of respect also rose in Lin Ye's eyes.
The avenue is boundless!
The journey to find the road is long and long.
Being able to become a god shows that Emperor Xia's talent is unmatched at least in this world.
However, after becoming a god, he did not choose to enter the wider world to pursue the avenue, but stayed to continue to protect the human race.
This kind of selfless mind made Lin Ye admire from the bottom of his heart.
"It is with such a strong person to protect the human race, the human race can continue to multiply and stand tall in this world!"
Lin Ye said secretly.
He knew the history of this world.
In the beginning, the Terrans of this world were just a very weak race, barely struggling to survive under the rule of the demon race.
Until the birth of this first Terran deity......
He led the human race to conquer the world and develop and grow until he had the qualifications to fight against the demon race!
Then came the second and third deities......
Most of the gods born in the history of the Xia Dynasty had a broad mind and a heart for the human race.
They worked hard from generation to generation, and finally formed the Great Xia Dynasty that is now impregnable.
Even in the dark ages when there were no gods born, the human race could preserve the inheritance of the torch and never be destroyed by the demon race.
This is the result of the selfless dedication of these gods!
With this information in his mind, Lin Ye's mentality began to change slightly.
Of course, these changes are still very weak.
After all, his current strength is still too weak, and the heavy responsibility of protecting the human race is not yet his turn to resist.
After the statue of Emperor Xia was put on the stage, everyone visited together.
This is the first step of the succession ceremony of the castle lord, and then the succession of the castle lord is announced, and the whole city is announced.
In this process, anyone can raise a question.
The candidate to succeed the city lord must solve these doubts, otherwise, he will not be able to succeed to the position of city lord.
"Now announce to the whole city, the successor of the city lord is selected as - Viscount of the Great Xia Dynasty, Lin Ye!"
