Chapter 143: The Lord of the City
"Lu Xiaoyou, after going through Gangnan City and his party, presumably you can't go to Fengcheng for the time being, it's the Bai family's world!"
"Hehe, you can't hide anything from the city lord's wife!"
"Alas, don't be the lady of the city lord on the left and on the right, the husband is gone, and there is nothing I miss here, and I will leave tomorrow!"
"I don't know the lord of the city...... What are your plans?" Lu Chen groaned, the strength of the fierce woman on his side was strong, and her heart was not comparable to that of ordinary cultivators, such a person staying in Gangnan City was definitely a major force, but he didn't expect to leave in a blink of an eye.
"Plans? I was rescued by my husband halfway, and now, where do I come from!" When the said this, her face was complicated, and she didn't know what she was thinking, "I don't know what Lu Xiaoyou's plans are?"
"Me?" Lu Chen was stunned, yes, the matter of Gangnan City has been resolved, and the underground tomb can only let it continue to be buried deep underground, and he was originally escorting Uncle Wen and others to Gangnan City, and now he really doesn't know where to go next.
Slowly shaking his head, "I don't know where I'm going?"
Lu Chen replied like this, and the woman did not have any dissatisfaction, but nodded, "Lu Xiaoyou has the help of masters, and his future achievements will definitely not be low, if there is a place where Xiaoyou needs to take action in the future, I hope Xiaoyou will not sit idly by!"
"Haha, that's a good thing to say, but you have to be ready for the reward, you know, the boy is a poor man!"
"Giggles, Lu Xiaoyou is laughing, the remuneration is naturally indispensable, this guy usually doesn't hide his secrets!"
The voice was still floating on the city wall, and the fierce woman beside her had already jumped off the city wall and galloped towards the city lord's mansion, looking at the figure that was about to disappear, Lu Chen suddenly had an illusion, the figure that seemed to be a little fat seemed to be changing, becoming more and more slender.
"If you want to go to the Demon Beast Mountain Range to cultivate, be careful of the Phantom Moon Valley, if we have a fate, we will meet again, but I don't know if you will know it at that time!"
A faint voice came from the direction where the figure of the woman disappeared, and by the time Lu Chen wanted to ask, the figure had completely disappeared.
"Forget it, I'll ask when I meet her tomorrow!"
The next day, all the great martial arts realm powerhouses in Gangnan City gathered in the hall, only the figure sitting in the first seat below was an exception, and it was strange for him to appear in the hall with the strength of the fifth stage of the warrior, not to mention that he was sitting in the first seat below, but no one was dissatisfied with this.
There are many things they need to discuss today.
Above, one of the two chairs had already been sat upright by the lord of the city, and the other chair was puzzled by many powerhouses in the lobby.
In the past, there had never been two chairs here, and although there were eight city lords in Gangnan City at that time, the real right to speak was still the big city lord, and even a fierce woman never thought of sitting in that seat.
"Everyone, this chair must make you very confused, the city lord of Gangnan City here is either the strongest or the strongest, and the protection of Gangnan City is inseparable from any of us, otherwise, the attack of the Sword Sect the day before yesterday would not be as simple as them being wiped out by us."
Speaking of this, the big city lord glanced at the first seat below, intentionally or unintentionally, and there was Lu Chen who was sitting upright.
"Great city lord, what are you doing looking at the kid like this?" Lu Chen touched his cheek and was very puzzled.
"Hehe, the big city lord is staring at you, so he naturally takes a fancy to you!"
"Haha......"
As soon as the old man said something, the entire hall burst into laughter.
"Alright, old ghost, let's get down to business, you may wonder why there's an extra chair here?"
The big city lord spoke, and everyone below nodded, but Lu Chen guessed a rough idea.
I don't know what the big city lord in front of him has in his heart, according to the thoughts of ordinary people, Gangnan City is not an ordinary small city, everyone wants to grasp everything in the city in the palm of their hands, otherwise there will be no seven city lords colluding with foreign enemies to rebel against the city.
Right now, the big city lord is doing the opposite, which is indeed weird.
"I've thought about it, the reason why Lao Qi was able to rebel against the city was mainly because of me, if there were two really powerful city lords,
Do you think Lao Qi will drive us out of Gangnan City so easily?"
The big city lord said this, but it made a lot of discussion in the hall, some praised, naturally some opposed, and some puzzled.
"Big brother!" The four city lords opened their mouths to dissuade them, but they were stopped by the big city lords raising their hands.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I have thought very clearly, at the moment I have two candidates, one of them is already in the lobby, and the other is the former lady of the Eight City Lords, and when the guards invite the eighth sister, we will make a decision."
There are also people who want to open their mouths to dissuade, after all, this is not a trivial matter, now there are countless pairs of eyes staring at Gangnan City, and if you are not careful, Gangnan City will completely fall.
It's just that the big city lord has already spoken, and they can only swallow back the words that come to their mouths, and then think of other ways.
One more person in power will make decisions in the future more inconvenient and more likely to cause civil strife.
Of course, there are pros and cons, and similarly, there is one more person to share in the event of an accident.
"Report to the city lord, I have never seen her in the mansion of the eighth lady, and my subordinates have no choice but to let the maid enter her room, and only find a letter!" Just then, a guard arrived with a letter in his hand.
The big city lord read the letter in his hand, his face changed, and then he handed the letter to the many strong people below.
"Eighth Sister is really thoughtful!" The four city lords were also amazed after reading the letter, and then looked at the figure of the first one.
Not only the four city lords, but everyone in the hall looked at Lu Chen, and then the discussion continued to sound.
"City Lord, my subordinates have doubts!"
"You say!"
"Lu Xiaoyou is not from my Gangnan City, but a descendant of the Lu family in the lonely city, the Lu family is involved a lot, in the eyes of his subordinates, if Lu Xiaoyou becomes another city lord, it will not be of much benefit to Gangnan City!" The guards were very direct, but they made many strong people in the lobby stunned.
Right now, Lu Chen is sitting in front of him, so direct, if Lu Chen really becomes the city lord in the future, the prospect of this guard will also worry many strong people, thinking of this, everyone can't help but look at that very young figure again.
"Guys, it seems that you didn't say that you wanted to ask Lu Daoyou to become the city lord of Gangnan City, right?" Everyone was like this, but the big city lord smiled, and the words he said made everyone in the entire hall unable to return to their senses.
All of them are the strongest people in Gangnan City, the big city lord has already said before, another city lord is in the lobby, if it weren't for Lu Chen, they really couldn't imagine who else would be, everyone looked at each other, and then fixed on the four city lords, vine old ghosts and others.
"Haha, you guys, am I like the one who takes care of those trivial things as the lord of the city?" The four city lords laughed, he was arrogant by nature, and he was indeed not a candidate to deal with trivial matters as a city lord.
"Don't look at the old ghosts, in terms of strength and prestige, I'm not as good as the four city lords, you guys are too uplifting old ghosts!" The old ghost of the vine also declined.
In this way, everyone was puzzled, and they all looked at the remaining city lord, there were a total of eight city lords in Gangnan City, but in the end, there were only three people who survived except for the fierce woman, except for the big city lord, the fourth city lord, and the eighth city lord's wife, the only one left was the six city lords.
"Hehe, I think you're all blind!" The six city lords were even worse, and directly laughed and scolded everyone.
"Big city lord, don't sell it, you said it and see, who else is suitable to be the city lord of Gangnan City, the lord of a city, this is not child's play!"
"Didn't you already guess it?" Speaking of this, the big city lord looked at Lu Chen again, and everyone was puzzled.
"Hehe, the old man also thinks Lu Chen is suitable!" The old ghost was already resourceful, and when the big city lord said this again, he immediately guessed what he was thinking.
"This ......" everyone squeaked, this is not child's play, Lu Chen, they all know, it is just a ten-year-old hairy child, although there are many means, but the experience is too low after all, this Gangnan City is the lives of hundreds of thousands of people.
"Everyone, if anyone has any objections, you may as well speak out, but if there is anything, I have to say it first, if there is no Lu Chen in Gangnan City, do you think it is still the current Gangnan City, without Lu Chen, it is impossible for you to sit here and discuss the choice of the city lord together, at such an age, with such means, I think, how many people are there in the entire Daluo Dynasty? Not to mention the Daluo Dynasty, even if it is certain within those big forces
Is there such a demon?"
The big city lord's words were very light, his eyes were like a torch scanning everyone, but none of the strong people below dared to look directly at him, what the big city lord said was what they owed Lu Chen.
Then, all eyes looked at Lu Chen and were even more speechless, the latter actually closed his eyes and took a nap, and even snoring, and everyone smiled bitterly when they didn't seem to be pretending to sleep.
"Ahem......
The cough sounded, and Lu Chen also raised his head and looked at everyone apologetically, "Everyone, since we are discussing becoming the city lord of Gangnan City in Xia, it is naturally not good to say much in Xia, but there is a sentence I can give to you, as long as there is a kid in Gangnan City, there will be Gangnan City!"
"With you here, Gangnan City is here!" The old ghost muttered, not knowing what to think in his eyes.
"What do you think?"
"Lu Shaoxia can do this at a young age, it really makes me feel ashamed, but Lu Shaoxia is the young master of the Lu family in the lonely city after all, and there are many gaps with the Sword Sect and the Phantom Moon Valley, so it is really ...... to become the city lord of Gangnan City."
"Oh? That kid dared to ask, even if there was no kid, the Sword Sect would definitely let Gangnan City go, as for the Phantom Moon Valley, there must not be the courage to rush to war!"
"This ......" As soon as Lu Chen's words came out, the following was suddenly dumbfounded.
"Sword Sect, presumably many years ago, Gangnan City was regarded as a thorn in the side, in the territory of the Great Luo Dynasty, those who dared to openly oppose the Sword Sect, Gangnan City should be the first, such an existence, do you think he would let it grow? Knowing that the Sword Sect is eyeing Gangnan City, the kid has the courage to ask you, who dares to step out of Gangnan City and openly provoke the Sword Sect!"
Syllable!
Syllable!
Syllable!
As soon as the words fell, there was already applause above, and the big city lord looked at Lu Chen with a smile on his face, "Everyone, with such courage, I don't know if you still have it now?"
Scanning everyone, he saw that no one spoke, "It's decided, Lu Chen is the other person in power in Gangnan City, we will assist well, and I think the name of Gangnan City will definitely spread to every corner of the Daluo Dynasty."
