Chapter 117: Deputy City Lord
Time flies, and a year has passed since Yu Yan came to this city.
In this year, under the leadership of the people, the original dilapidated city has gradually returned to its original appearance.
At the moment, in a quiet courtyard with flowers and trees, and a lotus pond in it.
Next to the lotus pond, a white-clothed figure was sitting motionless on a smooth stone, but if you look closely, you will find that the young man emitted an invisible wave of qi, and the whole space became a little hazy as if it was burned by an invisible flame.
"Master, the lord of the city has come to visit. ”
Suddenly, at this moment, a voice came from a distance, and I saw an old man in cloth walking from a distance.
Before anyone approached, the white-clothed figure slowly got up, turned his head, and revealed a scholarly face, this white-clothed young man was none other than Yu Qian.
At this time, the old man in cloth had already come to Yu Gan's side and bowed respectfully.
"Hurry up, please. Yu Yan looked at the old man and said hurriedly.
The old man said yes respectfully, and then turned around and walked towards the door, looking at the back of the old man leaving, Yu Gan's eyes were full of calm, this old man was a servant specially sent to him by the city lord, in fact, this servant was mainly to take care of and take care of this courtyard.
"Hahaha, deputy city lord, the old man came uninvited, didn't bother you!"
A moment after the old man was gone, a hearty laugh came from outside the door.
As soon as he heard this laughter, Yu Yan knew who the person who was coming.
Sure enough, the next moment, a white-haired old man in a gray robe, led by the old man in cloth, walked over to him.
Seeing this gray-clothed old man Yu Gan, he smiled slightly, this old man was none other than the city lord of this city.
Soon, the two came to Yu Qian's side.
"Elder Meng, you go down first. Yu Yan suddenly said to the old man in cloth.
Meng Lao is Yu Gan's name for the old man in cloth.
Meng Lao bowed respectfully, and then retreated.
At this moment, only Yu Yan and the gray-haired old man were left on the edge of the lotus pond.
"City Lord, I don't know what you are here this time?" After Meng Lao left, Yu Yan turned his head to look at the gray-clothed and white-haired old man and asked with a smile.
"Brother Yu, you see that the development of our city is thriving under your leadership, and I think it's time for me to abdicate and make way for Xian. ”
The gray-clothed and white-haired old man smiled, and suddenly said something that shocked Yu Qiandu.
Yu Yan was stunned for a moment, but soon reacted, and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, city lord, how can I be virtuous, and I am so young, how can I be qualified for the position of city lord?"
"I know that Brother Yu, you are not here, you are a master of cultivation, you will definitely not be willing to be in such a city, but you can be a substitute, and I can also manage it for you in my lifetime. The gray-robed old man seemed to have guessed what Yu Gen said, so he said again.
Yu Yan was stunned, and a strange look flashed in his eyes as he looked at the gray-robed old man. Looks like this old guy already knew I was going to say that!
"What's the matter, Brother Yu, Deputy City Lord, when are you free?" The black-robed old man looked at Yu Gen and said with a smile.
"What are you doing when you're free?" Yu Yan wondered.
"Of course, I will hand over the position of city lord to you, such a major event must not be sloppy, and this is also what everyone expects. The old man stroked his beard and smiled.
"......" in the end.
"City Lord, I'll tell you the truth now, in fact, I'm a member of the Xuanmen. Yu Yan looked at the old man and said seriously.
Genmon?!
When the old man heard this word, he was obviously stunned. Then, he suddenly said, "Brother Yu, are you really a member of the Xuanmen of the three major sects of the human realm?"
Yu Yan nodded, thinking that the old man would retreat in the face of difficulties, and would not tell him about the handover of the city lord, but what he didn't expect was...
"It's just great that our city is just around the corner. The old man suddenly slapped his forehead and took Yu Yan's hand, his tone full of excitement.
Belch......
Yu Yan didn't expect the old man to be so persistent, and he didn't know what to say for a while, he originally came to this city to alleviate some of his guilt, and also to experience the life of sentient beings, that is, ordinary people. So in this year, he not only led the construction of the city by everyone, but was also elected by everyone to become the deputy city lord.
He didn't think about this, so he gladly accepted it, but now the old man actually told him to hand over the city lord to him, which made him a little unable to react.
A Xuanmen master would keep him busy, and now if he added a city lord, then his cultivation path might really be hindered.
"City Lord, you better find someone else for this matter! Yu Yan said directly to the old man.
"It's okay, I won't force you. You don't have to be in such a hurry to refuse me, think about it. ”
The gray-robed old man smiled, didn't continue to force, and was about to leave as soon as he turned around, but after taking three steps, his figure paused, and he didn't look back, "If a cultivator wants to truly experience our mortal life and integrate into our life, it is not enough to spend a year. ”
Yu Yan was slightly startled, and at this moment, the old man had already walked towards the door. After a while, he disappeared from Yu Yan's sight.
"I thought that after building this city, I would be able to get out and leave, but I thought ......"
Yu Yan couldn't help but sigh slightly, and a thought flashed in his eyes, "Now that black-clothed young man probably won't dare to come out and make trouble again, if that's the case, I won't be able to practice in this city for another year and a half!"
The gray-robed and white-haired old man's words made sense, and he had been looking for such an opportunity, perhaps because he was in too much of a hurry!
"Well, since I came here, not only did I break through to the middle stage of the Boundless Realm, but I also became the deputy city lord, maybe I really have a relationship with this city!" Yu Yan muttered, suddenly smiling.
Then he took a step, and the whole person came to the smooth stone, and slowly sat down again after getting rid of superfluous distractions.
At this moment, in a large hall exuding an evil aura in the Demon Immortal Domain.
I saw a black-clothed figure sitting on the seat above the main hall, although his eyes were closed, his body still exuded an evil aura that constantly distorted the space around him.
"My king!"
The space fluctuated, and a voice came out.
"Huh?!" the young man in black slowly opened his eyes and looked down, and the essence in his eyes flashed.
At this moment, a red figure suddenly appeared below him. This is a middle-aged man, and this person exudes a terrifying aura unique to a master of the Boundless.
"How is the matter that this seat has done for you?" the young man in black looked at the middle-aged man kneeling on the ground below and asked coldly.
"King Qiqi, it's almost there, and it will only take a year at most. The middle-aged man's body trembled, but he quickly replied.
A year?
"Okay, I can still wait for a year. The young man muttered, and a look of excitement suddenly appeared in his eyes.
"You've done a good job this time, and you've taken credit for it. When the task is accomplished, I will have a great reward, so go down!" said the young man.
The middle-aged man was overjoyed, hurriedly said yes, and then respectfully retreated.
"A year's time, all success or failure in one fell swoop!"
The eyes of the young man in black flashed with essence, and his expression seemed a little excited, not knowing what he was thinking.
