Quick Transmigration: Leisure

Under the bulletin board,

After the crowd finished reading, they dispersed on their own. Since they were basically not up to the requirements, it did not delay the city lord from selecting suitable candidates.

in this way,

That gave the two of them the opportunity to take a closer look.

"Zhao is eloquent, meticulous, considerate, fearless, and fast on his feet," Fox said, pointing to the bottom row of small characters.

"Isn't that talking about you, Lord Fox?" Xia Youmi said with a smile as she walked out.

"If someone is killed, the reward money will be multiplied fivefold to their family. I have no family, so wouldn't I be at a huge loss?" Fox You pointed out the point in the notice that displeased him the most, and slowly walked out of the area with Xia Youmi.

As soon as the city lord's proclamation was issued, most of the recruitment notices in the city were taken down voluntarily.

Hopefully, this will allow us to make way for it.

Xia Youmi could no longer see any more suitable tasks.

But she had no intention of participating in this task. Not only was finding the medicine difficult, but it also involved constantly dealing with humans and ensuring their safety.

I'm afraid 99% of demon cultivators wouldn't take on such a task.

They strolled around the streets, and most of the passersby were talking about the notice.

"Lord Fox, why is it necessary to protect people in this matter? If the divine physician were to come in person, there would be no need for such a grand procession." Xia Youmi recalled that the recruitment conditions stated that ten people should be selected from the guards and ten people should be recruited from the common people.

Deep in the mountains, a larger population does not necessarily mean greater survival.

"I don't know either, but there's definitely news in one place." Without waiting for Xia Youmi's instructions, Hu You led his people there on his own.

As Xia Youmi walked, she noticed something.

There was no trace of talismans pasted on the doors of the shops in the city.

Even the entrance to the coffin shop, which has now become an ironclad rule in the industry, was spotless, and she even tried to walk inside.

Aside from the boss's warm hospitality, there was no spiritual energy that was driven away.

She chose another shop, and the atmosphere inside captivated Xia Youmi. The coffins were not only made of pine wood, but also of the finest materials and craftsmanship.

Xia Youmi used all her strength to suppress her excited trembling.

They left reluctantly, but this meant they could buy things directly with their earnings.

This place doesn't have purchase restrictions, and they even offer customized services.

Xia Youmi suddenly understood what Hu You meant when he said that many distinguished guests who stayed here for a few days did not want to leave at all.

right now,

It doesn't seem like a big deal to let her pick up that notice.

The prices here are reasonable. The bounty and spoils from a mission are enough to cover her coffin expenses for twenty years.

I'd rather buy the best coffin and enjoy the most comfortable service.

Perhaps he noticed the change in her.

Fox glanced at the shop a couple more times, secretly noting down the distinguished guest's preferences.

It is an ambitious fox. In addition to providing one-on-one service at the inn, it also handles other business such as real estate transactions in Anle City.

This distinguished guest doesn't seem to be greatly affected by anything else; only shops like this can keep her here. We need to carefully observe the advantages of this area and strive for success in multiple areas.

Although it has no family.

But it has ideals and ambitions! To live for itself and become a well-rounded person.

Then, through his own abilities, he rose to a position next to the city lord and gloriously benefited everyone!

......

The teahouse was bustling with activity.

"You're here to listen to a story?"

"Exactly! With this notice posted today, there will surely be a gentleman here to answer everyone's questions." Fox You quickly paid the tea fee, struck up a conversation with the waiter, and finally got a good seat.

However, you'll need to share a table with others.

They had no objections. Hu You neatly cleaned the table and even took out a cloth to wipe Xia Youmi's chair.

Only then did he sit down and start talking to his deskmate.

"May I ask, did you mention that notice today, sir?"

"We've already covered this once, but the gentleman said there's new information and he'll bring it up again in a little while. Quite a few people are still here!"

"I see, thank you!"

"Don't mention it!" The two people sharing the table had a very good impression of Fox. With his superior appearance and extreme friendliness, they couldn't wait to pull him aside and tell him what they had just heard.

But I also have a damn sense of propriety and can't bear to offend it.

Xia Youmi watched with amazement, while she remained calmly ignored. She was used to not attracting attention, but Hu You subtly gestured to her, essentially saying they would talk later.

Xia Youmi nodded slightly, then looked around.

This time, the teahouse wasn't full of scholars; most of the people there were ordinary folks, or rather, half-demons.

They weren't overly wary of their surroundings, but instead looked towards the stage, eagerly awaiting the speaker's commencement.

"coming!"

After finding no empty seats in the teahouse, and even with the back seats neatly filled, the storyteller made his entrance with a solemn expression.

He first took a sip of tea to mask his rapidly beating heart.

Then, looking down at the audience, he skillfully began his speech:

"Ladies and gentlemen, please listen to a thrilling story! Fifty years ago..."

It's only just begun.

Soon, people who came specifically to see the notice posted by the city lord became dissatisfied.

They want to hear about the selection process, not some old news.

Before he could speak, the person next to him pressed him down and warned in a low voice, "Don't do anything! Fifty years is just the story of the city lord, keep your voice down!"

After speaking, the man lowered his head with remorse, but his ears were perked up, showing that he still cared a lot about the city lord's affairs.

Xia Youmi and the other person also happened to be there by chance.

Unexpectedly, in order to build a truly capable team, the city lord of Anle City went so far as to publicly reveal his background for the first time, including the story of his parents.

Among them are many bloody truths.

Everyone listened intently for a moment.

Fifty years ago, the city lord was born just like most half-demon children.

They bear a heavy burden of sin and oppression.

His mother was an ordinary person, but she also had some extraordinary qualities. For example, she came from a good family, never abandoned her family, and had an education far beyond that of ordinary people.

That was in the capital, where supreme power clashed and merged with the deepest darkness.

A demon cultivator infiltrated the royal family, and this power has silently persisted for several generations.

If not a foolish person, but a humanoid half-demon, coveting the power of demon cultivators.

He colluded with masters who were supposedly skilled in teaching, attempting to harm the young ladies of the capital, but was exposed as a result.

It's unclear how much longer the royal family can remain in the dark.

Unfortunately, they have already successfully harmed quite a few people.

Fortunately, someone bravely stepped forward and revealed everything.

That person was the city lord's mother.

The evil demon cultivator kidnapped the young ladies and forced them to conceive half-demons, seemingly disregarding whether it would harm the mothers.

The city lord's mother, Miss Du, not only escaped using her wisdom, but also released all those who had been imprisoned.

Furthermore, they spread this matter extensively within circles that knew about demon cultivators!

At that time, Miss Du had already been engaged to a family that had been passed down through generations.

But she withdrew without hesitation, and she didn't care about the doubts she faced. She directly reported the scourge to His Majesty.

Tearing away the veil of darkness.

even if,

She is already pregnant with the offspring of a demon.

Forcible intervention will only result in the death of both mother and child.
