The beautiful goddess is my maid
Chapter 17 Chu Xiaoxiao's Persuasion Was Ineffective
A middle-aged man in purple with an extraordinary temperament walked in with a smile, followed by the old butler Tian Zheng, who stood half a body length behind the middle-aged man.
This is the disparity in status between master and servant. Even though the old butler has served in the City Lord's Mansion for most of his life, the gap between their identities and status is an insurmountable gap.
After the middle-aged man came in, he did not speak, but walked straight to an armchair next to the square table in the room and sat down gently. The pressure coming towards him made the air in the room drop a little, and a hint of chill permeated.
Su Can carefully raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, thinking that this should be the city lord.
The middle-aged man also looked around at the people in front of him with a smile on his face, and tapped the table lightly with his fingertips twice.
After a while, a young woman dressed in green silk came up with tea set, then turned and left in a hurry.
Su Can's heart was beating fast. Seeing that the city lord didn't say anything, he was too embarrassed to speak.
Chu Xiaoxiao also sensed the master's worry, and said with a smile: "Master, please rest assured. This person's cultivation is the perfection of the Great Spiritual Master, and he is only one step away from entering the Spiritual Venerable realm. However, his strength is not comparable to that of ordinary Spiritual Venerables. All the master's previous guesses about his cultivation are indeed true."
If this is true, the Lord of Yongning City is indeed deliberately suppressing his cultivation in order to preserve the power of his own forces.
"Are you Su Can?" The man in purple took a sip of tea.
"Yes, I'm Su Can."
"Well, I just heard from Butler Tian about your situation. It's really not easy to have such a high level of cultivation at such a young age."
"Thank you for the compliment, sir. I am unworthy of it." Su Can politely bowed his hands in thanks.
"Yeah." The Lord of Yongning City saw that the young man in front of him was not timid and answered politely, so he couldn't help but have a better impression of him.
"You are from Kuqiao Village, does Zhong Dashan know you?"
"Of course, that's the old chief of our Kuqiao Village. The one next to him is our current chief, and the old chief's son." Su Can said, pointing to the strong man Zhong Kui next to him.
Zhong Kui didn't know what to say. He was extremely nervous and forced an unnatural smile on his face. He stuttered for a long time but couldn't utter a complete sentence. He could only nod his head repeatedly.
The man in purple waved his hand to indicate that he understood, and continued speaking.
"Your old village chief Zhong Dashan, who is at the early stage of spiritual master, has participated in more than ten wilderness brawls on behalf of your Kuqiao village, but he was able to return safely every time?" After saying that, he looked at several people with a smile.
Su Can was also puzzled by this matter. Even though the old village chief was always careful, he could not withstand so many near-death experiences. It could only be said that he was lucky.
But this luck is too good. Even if she is a koi girl, she wouldn’t have such a miraculous chance.
"I don't know, I hope you can teach me." Su Can's attitude was still very good.
"Uncle Tian, go ahead." The man in purple gestured to the old man beside him.
"Okay, sir. I only remembered this matter when the city lord mentioned the name Zhong Dashan when I reported it to him. Alas, it's easy to forget things when you get old." Tian Zheng was still chattering there, enjoying himself.
"Ahem, Uncle Tian." Seeing that the old man had gone off topic, the man in purple hurriedly reminded him and pulled the old man back.
"Hehe, your old village chief Zhong Dashan was the servant of our old city chief, and he was also the person in charge before the Great Brawl in the Wasteland. I took over his responsibility later. He yearned for a pastoral life, and left the city chief's mansion more than a hundred years ago. No one knew where he went until he represented the Kuqiao Village to participate in the Great Brawl in the Wasteland. Only then did we know where he went after he left.
Unfortunately, his talent was limited, and his cultivation level had always been stuck at the spiritual master level. Every time he participated in a wild fight, the old and new city lords would intentionally arrange for him to take part in safer missions. So, although he had suffered many injuries over the years, he had never lost his life.
Seeing that he is getting older, we originally planned to exempt Kuqiao Village from the task, but we suffered heavy losses last time and are seriously short of manpower. In addition, the small forces under our jurisdiction are watching each other, so we can't exempt Kuqiao Village from the quota. You should also understand the difficulties of the city lord. It seems that old man Zhong is still the same temper. "
After Butler Tian finished speaking, he sighed deeply and shook his head. His cloudy eyes became even duller and his steps became even more shaky.
Su Can bowed deeply and said, "Sir, I am young and my words do not count, but on behalf of the old village chief and hundreds of people in Kuqiao Village, I would like to thank you for your help all the time. However, we are here to participate in this event and are willing to do our part for Yongning City." Su Can naturally understood the last words of Butler Tian. The old village chief must have known the difficulties of the city lord a long time ago, so he did not use his connections to ask for it.
"Okay." The man in purple laughed.
"Su Can, let me formally introduce myself to you. I am the mayor of Yongning City, Luo Yonghao, a great spiritual master at the peak of perfection. Our Yongning City has insufficient number of participants in this wilderness brawl, which is about half of the usual number. We just need to be in the top 100, otherwise our Yongning City will become the target of division by other forces."
"This is the chief steward of my City Lord's Mansion, Tian Zheng, who is at the early stage of the Great Spiritual Master cultivation."
When City Lord Luo got to this point, he changed the subject.
"However, I am not going to let you participate in this wild brawl this time."
When Luo Yonghao saw that Su Can wanted to interrupt, he naturally knew that he had his own doubts.
"Don't worry, wait for me to finish, and you will naturally know the reason. The Great Battle in the Wasteland is divided into the Heaven Ranking and the Earth Ranking, which are 36 Heavenly Gangs on the Heaven Ranking and 72 Earthly Evils on the Earth Ranking. The Heaven Ranking is for forces with the cultivation level of Spiritual Venerable and above, and the Earth Ranking is for forces with the cultivation level of Spiritual Master and above. I believe you also know why I can suppress my own cultivation. Our Yongning City is a very inconspicuous existence in this Hunling Continent, and any medium-sized force can easily destroy us.
For this competition, I have analyzed our strength. If we are lucky, we can barely keep up with the last result. If we are unlucky, we may become the object of division. You have just reached the initial stage of spiritual master cultivation. Having one more person participating in the competition will not play a big role. On the contrary, you have reached the level of spiritual master at the age of 15. If you are given another 10 years, it is very likely that you can surpass me. So I discussed with Butler Tian and temporarily did not allow you to participate in this competition. You guys live in the City Lord's Mansion. I will let Butler Tian provide you with all the cultivation resources you need. You also need to grow up quickly. I am really afraid that I will not be able to hold on until that day. "
After Su Can heard this, his heart was filled with waves of shock and gratitude that City Lord Luo treated him so well.
"Xiaoxiao, what should I do?" Su Can asked quietly.
"Master, I think what the city lord said makes sense."
"But I don't want to." Su Can was conflicted.
"Master, squatting down is to jump higher, don't you think?" Chu Xiaoxiao persuaded.
Su Can hesitated for a while, then suddenly clasped his hands together and took a step forward. "Lord City Lord, although I am only at the early stage of spiritual master, I have subdued a third-stage early stage spiritual beast before. I am still willing to participate in the competition. I have always believed that cultivation is best gained through actual combat."
City Lord Luo couldn't help but be stunned by Su Can's words. He could actually subdue a third-stage early stage spirit beast. You know, even he couldn't do that.
To tame a spirit beast, you can't just have a higher level of cultivation. It requires the spirit beast to be completely obedient, which can only be achieved by reaching at least the late stage of Spirit Master, or even the peak of Perfect Spirit Master.
Another thing is what Su Can said. He deeply understands that cultivation is gained through actual combat. Many of the big forces under Yongning City have disciples who use elixirs and spiritual herbs to improve their cultivation, but their actual combat ability is really discounted. The life span of those who use elixirs and spiritual herbs to improve their cultivation will be greatly affected, and many will go astray. Moreover, the height they finally reach is also limited. Few people can reach the level of Spiritual Emperor. The Spiritual Emperor is a god-like existence with his own domain. Once the enemy is in his domain, he will be ruthlessly crushed.
