GBP Chapter 554: The New City Lord
Chapter 554: The New City Lord
The Lord of Anxi City, although only at the Spirit Emperor level,
But with the city lord's order in hand, one has the power to control and even suppress the people in the city.
Once used, it can easily weaken the opponent's strength.
Facing these gentry, we have the upper hand.
The city lord knows this.
The gentry naturally knew this,
Since they have already betrayed him, they will not be able to sleep well unless they kill the city lord.
But this question,
But it directly stumped Zhuang Feizi.
It also stumped Qin Han.
The mayor of the city of Rest can only take this position by following the decree of the Supreme Being.
This city is a major mission city and its weight is not low.
If you want to kill him,
Either there is a blood feud with the other party, or it is self-defense.
Or you received a mission to kill the city lord.
Otherwise, the city lord would be killed for no reason.
At the very least, it will reduce one's hidden weight in the Heavenly Dao.
In serious cases, a wanted order will be issued and the criminal will be wanted by all the gods.
Even with Qin Han's power, doing something like this would have little impact.
But he would not do anything that would harm himself for the sake of the city lord.
Now, the most important point is,
Don't look at the steward's report, and the gentry's accusations,
But after talking for so long,
Qin Han didn't receive any task prompt at all.
Obviously, in the game's judgment, this matter is defined as a gang internal conflict and is not worthy of a mission.
His expression shifted slightly as he continued to ponder the game mechanics.
aside,
The city lord seemed to have studied the rules in this area very thoroughly.
Even though these gentry kept accusing,
He wasn't panicking at all.
The cruelty on his face became even worse.
"Zhuang Lingzun, I'm sorry to have made you laugh. These are all internal matters of Anxi City. As the city lord, I will naturally give them justice."
"So, please don't ask about their words, senior."
This made Zhuang Feizi very unhappy.
If it were an ordinary city, this guy would have been dealt with long ago for daring to speak so rudely.
But now,
He really couldn't help it.
Put down the teacup in your heavy hand,
He looked at the group of gentlemen kneeling on the ground,
He sighed slightly and was about to speak.
But Qin Han stood up.
He glanced at the faces of the gentlemen.
Finally, it stopped at the face of the fat head of the Wang family who was the first to stand up for him.
"Master Wang, come here."
The head of the Wang family quickly got up from the ground and walked to Qin Han.
"Sir, please give me your instructions."
Qin Han: "This is not the place to talk, let's go outside and talk."
Patriarch Wang: "Understood."
The two walked out of the hall and stayed outside for about five minutes before returning.
When he came back, the Wang family master put his hands in his wide sleeves.
He looked a little nervous.
Qin Han nodded towards Zhuang Feizi and said a few words through voice transmission.
Zhuang Feizi immediately understood.
He spoke secretly to the gentry on the ground for several minutes.
Then he stood up and walked outside.
The other gentlemen, including the steward, saw this.
They all followed.
The city lord who sees everything,
Some are uneasy,
What on earth are these people trying to do with all this nonsense?
now,
In the hall, only the head of the Wang family stayed.
He stared at the city lord.
His face was filled with anger. "You dog City Lord, the people of Anxi City have suffered from you for a long time. Heaven and earth are my witnesses. Today, I will rid the people of this evil."
The city lord's eyelids twitched wildly: "What do you mean by that? Just you?"
Patriarch Wang gritted his teeth, took out a candlestick, and shouted, "Supreme Skill: Embers of the Long Night!"
"Kill me!"
follow closely,
A fire hood enveloped the city lord.
With a tearing sound, it turned into ashes.
Seeing this, Patriarch Wang
His eyes suddenly widened.
Looking at the scene in front of me in disbelief,
The once invincible city lord died so easily at his hands?
He stared blankly at the candlestick in his hand, not knowing what he was thinking.
at the same time,
Qin Han led his men back to the hall.
He grabbed the longevity lamp and quickly put it away.
"Why is Patriarch Wang stunned?"
Patriarch Wang finally came to his senses, wiped his sweat, and said nervously, "Thank you, thank you for lending me the treasure, sir."
Qin Han said righteously: "I didn't lend you any treasures. Have you forgotten that I borrowed a piece of Yin Ling Jade from you before, and I left it in your hands as a token of trust."
"I just said that this thing is extremely powerful and can kill a spirit master. Other than that, I didn't say anything else."
"Killing the city lord was your own fault. It has nothing to do with me."
Wang Shoudao wiped the sweat off his face and said quickly, "Yes, yes, yes, I made a mistake. I admit my mistake."
Qin Han: "Now that you have violated the rules by using my treasure, I will take it back. We are even now."
Wang Shoudao: "I understand, I understand."
Qin Han: "That's no problem. You'll probably have a heavy burden on your shoulders in the future. Don't follow in your predecessor's footsteps."
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Zhuang Feizi: "Master, let's go."
……
After Qin Han and the others left,
inside the house,
All the gentlemen came in,
Around a heap of ashes in the hall,
"Master Wang, is the city lord really dead? What kind of treasure is this that is so powerful?"
Wang Shoudao smiled mysteriously and did not explain.
Instead, he walked to the place where the city lord died and took a look.
Seeing a token lying alone,
He picked it up in a flash of inspiration,
Next second,
A bright light appeared, and the token actually merged with him.
"I see!!!"
Immediately afterwards, all the spirits in the city received a prompt.
"The old city lord is dead, the new city lord is: Wang Shoudao!"
outside,
Xing Baili and others who had just come to greet them also received this information.
Zhuang Feizi was stunned for a moment: "Xiao Han, how can you be sure that Wang Shoudao can be the city lord?"
Qin Han: "To reply to Master, the former city lord was unjust, Wang Shoudao could not survive, so he rose up in rebellion, and then succeeded and replaced him. This is common sense."
"As for whether it can be confirmed, I don't know. I am just guessing."
Zhuang Feizi stroked his beard and smiled, "I see. However, this is a bit risky. What if the Wang family master deliberately set up a trap and turns against us after getting the Longevity Lamp?"
Qin Han: "No, once he rebels, then the disciples can fight back openly. None of these spirits will walk out alive today."
"Besides, with Elder Xing and the others already screening us, the probability of this person turning against us is less than one in ten thousand."
Upon hearing this, Xing Baili and the other two quickly waved their hands.
"Master, you are too kind. It's just a small favor."
Qin Han: "By the way, I have one more thing to trouble you with. Since Wang Shoudao is the city lord and holds great power, you should send all the negative information about them to him and let them solve it themselves."
"Also, the more goodies like summoning talismans we have, the better. There are quite a few of these on the black market, and the City Lord's Mansion must have even more."
Upon hearing this, the three of them immediately obeyed the order and left.
