Chapter 397: Who is the City Lord?
As soon as the words fell, an additional figure appeared in the cabinet.
This figure appeared out of thin air, and it didn't know where it came from or how it came in.
Zong Ziming subconsciously glanced at the door, and found that the door of the Council Pavilion was still hidden, and there were no guards walking in from outside the door, and when he found this, his eyelids twitched a few times unconsciously, and his eyes fell on the person who came.
The person who came was a very young man, about thirty years old, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a handsome face, a slender figure, and long black and shiny hair tied behind his back with a hairband, a little more casual and free and easy, but the cold light that shot out of this young man's eyes made people shudder.
This young man is naturally Jiang Chen.
Seeing Jiang Chen appear, Qing Hexi, Du Weifang, and Ma Zhongde first showed a look of surprise and disbelief in their eyes, and then a wave of ecstasy erupted.
"Jiang Chen!"
Qing Hexi and Du Weifang called out almost at the same time.
Then he stood up at the same time and rushed towards Jiang Chen.
Ma Zhongde also got up slowly and looked at Jiang Chen excitedly, his eyes had become red, and his chest rose and fell violently because of excitement.
Seeing Qing Hexi and Du Weifang pulling the arm of the young man in front of him and laughing, Zong Ziming's heart suddenly swelled up with jealousy and anger again, although he had vaguely guessed the identity of the person in front of him, he still coughed coldly, stared at Jiang Chen and asked, "Who are you?"
But Jiang Chen didn't pay attention to Zong Ziming at all, what kind of goods was Zong Ziming, how could Jiang Chen see it in his eyes?
"Are you all right?" Jiang Chen smiled and looked at Qing Hexi and Du Weifang, who were hugging his arms left and right, the plump place of these two little girls was still rubbing against his arms as before, and suddenly an evil fire came out of Jiang Chen's body.
It seems that after holding back for so long in this life, the void fire in the body is a bit too much!
Jiang Chen sighed secretly, but he still tried his best to suppress this evil fire, so that he would not have this evil thought again.
"Ma Zhongde, come here!" Jiang Chen looked at Ma Zhongde again and smiled.
Ma Zhongde walked in front of Jiang Chen very honestly.
"City Lord Jiang!" Ma Zhongde bowed respectfully, and the look in his eyes was full of reverence. There is also an excitement that is hard to hide.
"Hmm......" Jiang Chen looked at Ma Zhongde and nodded with satisfaction, Ma Zhongde's character is very honest and responsible. Delve into the way of formation, and devote yourself to it.
Jiang Chen came back this time, planning to officially include Ma Zhongde under his disciple and become his second disciple.
Jiang Chen was about to open his mouth to speak to Ma Zhongde, when suddenly Zong Ziming's cold voice came again. Even this time, his voice suddenly expanded several times.
When he saw that Jiang Chen was indifferent to his question, he was even more angry in his heart, so there was a hint of provocation in his angry voice.
"This is the Council Pavilion of the Star Tower, if you are not from the Star Tower, please leave here immediately!"
This time, Jiang Chen finally slowly turned his head and looked at the man named Huan.
"What are you?" Jiang Chen asked coldly.
Zong Ziming was stabbed by Jiang Chen's cold gaze, and suddenly felt a chill all over his body, but he still held his courage and said, "I'm Zong Ziming." He is now the acting city lord of Star City!"
"Acting City Lord?" Jiang Chen smiled coldly, pointed at Zong Ziming and said, "From today onwards, you are no longer the acting city lord of Star City, and you no longer have anything to do with Star City!"
Jiang Chen's voice was very indifferent, and his expression was the same, full of an irresistible majesty, and he stared at Zong Ziming's eyes as if he was judging.
Zong Ziming looked at the young man in front of him, and for the first time he felt his heart tremble involuntarily, facing Jiang Chen. He suddenly felt ridiculous.
Before that, he had already imagined in his heart countless scenes where he might see Jiang Chen again, although he didn't want to see Jiang Chen again, and he didn't want Jiang Chen to return to Nanfengzhou. Because as soon as Jiang Chen returned to Nanfeng Prefecture, there was no doubt that his status as the city lord would not be guaranteed.
In fact, he was only an acting city lord and had not really ascended to the position of city lord, but Jiang Chen had already quietly returned, and appeared in front of him abruptly.
Zong Ziming has sued himself again and again. Even if he met Jiang Chen again, he would definitely not be able to lose to Jiang Chen, because Jiang Chen was no longer the city lord of Star City, and the city lord of Star City was his Zong Ziming.
However, when he saw Jiang Chen standing in front of him at this time, talking to him in this sentence-like tone, his heart suddenly lost the slightest confidence, and his previous arrogance was swept away.
He is a very good young monk, especially in managing a city, I have to admit that Star City can have the appearance it is today, it can become the first Xiuzhen city in Nanfeng Prefecture, and become an important port for economic and cultural transactions in the entire Nanfeng Prefecture and Northern Ezhou, which is inseparable from this sect.
However, he is also a young man who is easy to get dizzy in front of fame and fortune, every time he passes by the fountain square in the center of Star City and sees the towering statue in the center, Zong Ziming has vowed more than once that one day he will tear down this statue and replace it with his own statue.
"Hmph!" Looking at Zong Ziming, who was so shocked by his momentum that he didn't dare to speak, Jiang Chen snorted coldly disdainfully, and then his eyes swept over everyone in the cabinet, frowned slightly and asked Ma Zhongde: "Ma Zhongde, where are my brothers-in-law and Huang Lao? and Steward Li...... Why are they gone, where did all these people come from?"
Hearing Jiang Chen's culture, a trace of gloom flashed in Ma Zhongde's eyes, and then a wave of anger erupted, pointing at Zong Ziming and saying: "It's because of him, the City Lord Yue was originally in charge of this city, and since he came, he set up a conspiracy to drive away Yue Chonglou, and Huang Lao raised objections because he didn't hide his actions to drive away the City Lord Yue, and as a result, he broke the Jindan." Now he has become a waste!
If it weren't for the fact that I was proficient in the formation and had the value of use, I'm afraid I would have been eliminated by him a long time ago. Many of our guys in the past, many of our friends who built Star City together, were all driven away by him, and they were killed, and now sitting here, except for me, Qing Hexi and Du Weifang, everyone else is his lackey!"
"It's all his people?" Jiang Chen smiled coldly, it seems that this Zong Ziming really has real power.
"Drive away my brother, become the city lord yourself, and abolish Huang Lao! It turns out that the original team that built Star City has all dared you to leave, isn't this a dove occupying the magpie's nest?" Jiang Chen sneered again and again, and walked towards Zong Ziming step by step, and the aura on his body unabashedly pressed towards Zong Ziming.
Zong Ziming originally wanted to resist, but when Jiang Chen's aura instantly enveloped his whole body, a completely irresistible force instantly oppressed him to his knees, and even his limbs, head, chest and abdomen could not be lifted up, clinging to the ground, and in his heart, a terror spreading from the deepest part filled his body.
He didn't even have the courage to secretly raise his head to look at Jiang Chen!
And the elders who were originally sitting on the long sandalwood desks on both sides, when they saw Zong Ziming kneeling on the ground, they all stood up one by one, and they immediately attacked Jiang Chen.
But Jiang Chen just snorted coldly, his gaze swept around like a sharp sword, and all the monks were instantly enveloped by Jiang Chen's breath.
There was a plopping sound, and they all knelt down involuntarily!
This is the coercion of Mahayana monks!
And among these people present, the highest realm is also the out-of-body realm, it is no exaggeration to say that Jiang Chen can kill these people hundreds of times in a short moment, with just one finger!
"Let's do it by myself!" Jiang Chen's cold voice came out.
These monks suddenly became agitated, and then their bodies trembled.
"Don't let me do it, if I do it, it won't be as simple as abolishing cultivation!" Jiang Chen's gaze fell on Zong Ziming: "Let's start with you!"
"I ...... I ......" Zong Ziming's lips kept trembling, he wanted to say something, but he said a few words in a row, and still didn't say that sentence.
"Poof!"
A sword flashed, and Zong Ziming fell to the ground with a bang.
His eyes were still open, and there seemed to be horror, disbelief, and a hint of deep remorse in them.
His expression was frozen in the moment of death, and the other elders also saw the expression on Zong Ziming's face.
"I won't say it again, I'll give you the last ten breaths of time......"
As soon as Jiang Chen's words fell, a man in black slapped his palm on his chest, and then a clicking sound came, Jin Dan shattered, this is a monk of the Jin Dan realm.
There was blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, but he pursed his mouth tightly, obviously not letting the upwelling mouthful of blood spurt out, and then he took a deep look at Jiang Chen and walked out.
Seeing this, the other people's faces flashed with determination, and they all abandoned their cultivation and left the Star Tower.
But there were still a few people, standing in place and not moving, their eyes kept turning, and suddenly on the bodies of these people, a force that tore through the void erupted at the same time.
Then the space was distorted, and the figures of these people were about to disappear into the void.
"Humph!"
Jiang Chen still snorted coldly, and grabbed it directly with both hands.
Those monks who were about to disappear into the void were instantly grabbed by Jiang Chen's two True Yuan big hands.
"Bang ......"
With a few explosions, the few monks who wanted to escape with the help of the small transfer charm were instantly pinched and exploded by Jiang Chen's two True Yuan big hands, exploding into several clouds of blood mist.
Ma Zhongde, Qing Hexi and Du Weifang were all silent at this time.
Looking at Jiang Chen's back with a strange look, this strange look seemed to be reverence, joy, envy, and fanaticism, too much.
With just a cup of tea, Jiang Chen solved the qiē in front of him, which was absolute strength.
"Jiang ...... City Lord Jiang! You ...... Your strength has become unfathomable......! I heard that you are already the sect master of a large sect in Northern Ezhou......" Ma Zhongde's words became a little stammered from being overly excited. (To be continued.) )xh118R1052
