Fantasy: I Have a Max-Level Immortal Emperor Account

Chapter 403 The Situation Within the City!

Andong City.

The territory under its jurisdiction spanned eight thousand li.

Even its main city still stretches for hundreds of miles, ranking among the top cities in the Ziwei family's territory. There are also many cultivator families within the city, including two major families with experts at the Void Realm.

Although they are both Void Realm experts with only lower-level Law Power, they are still not to be underestimated.

There are countless other medium and small-sized forces, numbering nearly a hundred.

There is only one teleportation array in Andong City.

It was built at the east gate of the outer city.

Nowadays, although friction between the Flying Demon Palace and the Ziwei family is increasing, many people from cities close to the Flying Demon Palace's influence have even left the cities and migrated elsewhere.

However, Andong City itself is located in a northern area.

Between the territory of the Flying Demon Palace and the city of Ziwei lies the city of Ziwei.

The situation in Andong City remained the same as usual, and even more families who had migrated from the south settled in the city, making the city even more lively.

Since the old patriarch of the Ziwei family has already gifted this city of Andong to him!

Therefore, any taxes levied within this fiefdom would naturally belong to him.

This is an extremely generous amount of spirit stones.

After he refines the City Lord's Seal, statues of him will appear in several towns under the jurisdiction of Andong City. Some of the towns' subjects will then generate faith in their City Lord.

The power of faith is very difficult to gather. Under such circumstances, only some city lords can gather the power of faith so easily and quickly cultivate their own forces.

Inside Andong City.

It is early morning.

As dawn broke.

At the vast East Gate, merchants were already coming and going. If you looked closely, you could even see that among these merchants, there were some small and medium-sized family forces that had moved away with their families. These family forces all looked weary from their journey.

The passing merchants and the people in Andong City were already used to it.

During this period of time, they have witnessed many, many families relocating.

Most of them migrated from cities near the territory of the Flying Demon Palace.

Some were even heartbroken and gave up the business they had worked hard to build over the years.

"uncle!"

"We abandon our family businesses just to survive. Aren't we letting our ancestors down?"

A young man from a fallen family glanced at the bustling city of Andong and couldn't help but sigh.

What does it mean to be ashamed of one's ancestors?

"If our entire Wang family were to perish in Qingniu City, we would truly be letting down our ancestors. The Flying Demon Palace is the number one power in the Flying Demon Middle World. If the Flying Demon Palace were to use its full force, not only our Wang family, but the entire Qingniu City would be reduced to ashes in an instant."

"We've managed to save our lives and ensure the continuation of our Wang family bloodline; this is already a good outcome!"

Beside the thin young man, his uncle spoke to him.

"Ugh!"

"But it's Wanqing!"

"I advise you to give up on that Miss Zhao. The Zhao family has connections in Ziwei City. Once you leave Qingniu City, you're destined to be on different paths!"

The thin boy's uncle, who was speaking beside him, offered him some advice.

"yes!!"

"Once that Zhao family girl arrives in a place like Ziwei City, how could she possibly contact you again!"

"Second brother, you must never have such wishful thinking again!"

Beside the slender young man, a rather burly man patted the young man's shoulder with his large, thick hand and said earnestly.

Seeing that all his close relatives and clansmen were saying the same thing, the thin man simply gripped a communication jade talisman tightly in his hand, recalling what Wanqing had told him. He firmly believed in his heart that Wanqing was not the kind of person who would change her mind so easily!

immediately.

After thinking about this, the thin man turned his gaze toward the direction of Ziwei City.

Meanwhile, with unwavering eyes, they continued to follow their clansmen forward. They had previously asked someone to purchase a mansion covering more than a hundred acres in the outer city of Andong.

All they have to do is move in!

At this moment, the elders of the Wang family had witnessed everything about this slender young man, and they all shook their heads in regret. They were childhood sweethearts, but unfortunately, the people from the Flying Demon Palace suddenly invaded the Ziwei family.

Forced by circumstances, they had no choice but to bow their heads.

What happened at the East Gate was mirrored elsewhere.

This is the current situation for the Ziwei family and the Feimo Palace.

And at this time.

The teleportation array platform next to the East Gate suddenly lit up, and a ripple of silver light emanated from it. Then, a man and a woman walked out from it. The man had a dignified appearance, wore a plain blue robe, and had an extremely refined temperament.

The young girl wore a white dress, her hair tied up with a ribbon. Her white dress was flawless, and from a distance, she looked like a white lotus flower just emerging from the water, making people linger and forget to leave.

Lin Xuan merely glanced around.

Then they headed towards the city lord's mansion in Andong City.

"Brother Lin Xuan, this Andong City is quite lively!"

"This will be your fiefdom from now on!"

"Can I come here often then?"

Su Xiaoxiao, who was standing next to Lin Xuan, looked around the bustling capital with a happy expression.

He spoke to Lin Xuan with great interest.

"Of course you can! You can come whenever you want!"

Lin Xuan smiled and replied.

"That's great!"

After receiving Lin Xuan's reply, Su Xiaoxiao cheered with joy.

The young couple on the street were quite eye-catching.

The journey was uneventful.

Then they arrived at the city lord's mansion in Andong City.

It was built on the inner city, on the most abundant spiritual energy dragon vein.

It was clearly a gigantic mansion.

Outside the city lord's mansion.

Two burly men clad in standard black armor each wielded a massive iron spear nearly ten feet long, exuding an imposing and powerful aura.

His large, bell-like eyes stared coldly ahead.

"Niu Er, have you heard? It's said that a new city lord is coming to our Andong City!"

“According to reports, after the previous city lord died in the outer realms, our Andong City has not had a formal city lord for ten years. The previous acting city lord, the head of the Cao family, used his position to embezzle a batch of spirit stones. Do you think the new city lord will cause trouble for the Cao family if he finds out about this?”

Qian Jinlai, who was standing next to Niu Er, said with great interest.

"Where did you get this information? How come I didn't know the new city lord was coming? Also, you were talking about the Cao family patriarch behind his back. If that gets back to him, do you know what will happen to you?"

Niu Er, who was standing next to Qian Jinlai, looked him up and down and said.

"Don't I trust you? Why would I be afraid of you telling on me, given our brotherhood?"

"I learned this news from the steward. The Ziwei Palace has already issued an order to give our Andong City to the other party as his exclusive fiefdom!"

"manor!?"

Upon hearing this, Niu Er couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Notice.

Generally, city lords dispatched by the Ziwei Palace only stay for a period of time, ranging from several decades to several hundred years. If the city where the city lord is located is always smooth and stable, and the city lord himself does not make any achievements, he may even remain in the position of city lord for thousands of years.

Furthermore, after this period of time, the Ziwei Palace will send a new city lord over again.

Ultimately, Andong City still belongs to the Ziwei Palace.

However, if this Andong City were granted as a fief to the new city lord...

Then the city lord will remain here forever.

Furthermore, the previous rule that the spirit stones collected within the city should be handed over to the Ziwei Palace is no longer required; they will ultimately end up in the pocket of the new city lord.

"What is the background of this new city lord?"

"You'd better try to curry favor with them!"

Even Niu Er, who was usually silent, changed his usual attitude and spoke slowly.

"I don't know his origins. Although I asked the steward, he seemed to say that the new city lord escorted the young master of the Ziwei family back safely from the Feimo Palace. After that, the steward didn't know anything else!"

"No wonder Butler Murong's attire has become a bit more plain today!"

Niu Er nodded.

"Did the steward mention the new city lord's itinerary?"

Niu Er continued to ask.

"not at all!"

"No news has come from the Ziwei Palace either, but whoever is holding the city lord's seal should be the new city lord!"

"Yes, that's right!"

"These next few days, the two of us need to be nicer to anyone who comes to the City Lord's Mansion!"

"Haha, it's good that Brother Niu Er knows!"

Qian Jinlai looked at Niu Er, whose expression was slightly serious, and said with a smile.

This was the first time he had ever seen Niu Er like this.

Both Niu Er and he were at the ninth level of the Tribulation Transcending Realm. They worked in the City Lord's Mansion, hoping that after serving for twenty years, they could go to the Five Elements Law Pool in the City Lord's Mansion and seize such an opportunity to break through to the Longevity Realm.

As long as they are lucky enough to break through to the Longevity Realm.

Even the weakest Five Elements Law Longevity Realm cultivators are still able to create their own family power. Although they are only the weakest families, they are still able to purchase real estate in the central district.

The two of them now live in the outer city, where the spiritual energy is quite thin.

The spiritual energy in the central district is more than five times that of the outer district, and it is only found within the central district. If they absorb it after breaking through to the Longevity Realm, it can provide them with some improvement.

But if we're only talking about the outer city area...

Even if they break through to the Longevity Realm, without a suitable place to cultivate, their power of laws will not improve even slightly.

Niu Er and Qian Jinlai only hoped that the new city lord wouldn't arbitrarily change the previous rules; otherwise, everything would fall into chaos. At this moment, they could only hope that the new city lord wasn't a reckless person.

After all, Andong City had already been designated as private territory by the Ziwei family.

Just as Niu Er and Qian Jinlai were thinking about something.

On the street leading to the city lord's mansion, a tall and extremely young man walked towards them, accompanied by a pretty young girl.

"Is this the City Lord's Mansion?"

“It’s very ordinary!”

Su Xiaoxiao stood outside the city lord's mansion, her crystal eyes scanning the vermilion gate from top to bottom. There were two iron rings with beast heads embedded in it, and the iron rings with beast heads exuded a fierce aura.

But for Su Xiaoxiao, who had lived in the Ziwei Palace for many years, the City Lord's Mansion was simply too ordinary, lacking any grandeur or magnificence.

Niu Er, standing outside the door, sized up Lin Xuan and Su Xiaoxiao. The two seemed to be from a family of cultivators who were city lords. However, the girl's disparaging remark about the city lord's mansion made him frown. If it were any other time, he would have already driven her away.

For some reason, Niu Er suddenly remembered what Qian Jinlai had said earlier and swallowed back his urge to speak up and drive them away.

"Cough cough!"

"May I ask what brings this young master to the City Lord's mansion?"

Just as Niu Er was about to ask a question.

Qian Jinlai, who was standing to the side, spoke first, with an extremely friendly smile on his face, and asked Lin Xuan and the other person in a very polite manner.

Lin Xuan looked up and glanced at Qian Jinlai.

Qian Jinlai's attitude was unbelievably good.

Lin Xuan didn't waste any more words with him. He raised his right hand, and to Niu Er and Qian Jinlai's astonishment, a yellow light suddenly appeared in Lin Xuan's right palm.

Immediately afterwards, a large orange-yellow seal appeared in his palm.

Although it only flashed by for a moment on the orange-yellow seal, Niu Er and Qian Jinlai both clearly saw the phantom of Andong City on the orange-yellow seal. The lifelike phantom of the city was exactly the same as Andong City, the city lord's seal was revealed the instant it appeared.

The spiritual energy surrounding the entire city lord's mansion was drawn in, and within a few breaths, the spiritual energy at the entrance became quite dense. Only the city lord's seal could have such an effect.

"Protect Niu Er!"

"Guard Qian Jinlai!"

"See the Lord of the City!"

The next moment, Niu Er and Qian Jinlai hurriedly knelt on the ground and said in an extremely respectful tone.

"kindness!"

Lin Xuan nodded slightly.

And this moment.

Inside the city lord's mansion, Steward Murong, sensing the city lord's seal, hurriedly rushed towards the city gate.

At the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

"This new city lord is so young, he seems to only be at the Longevity Realm!"

"It's unbelievable. With the strength of a city lord at the Longevity Realm, can he suppress the Cao and Gao families?"

"You must know that the patriarchs of those two great families are both Void Realm experts. Although they have been famous for many years and are quite old, and cannot exert their full combat power, they are still not comparable to Undying Realm experts, let alone Wanshou..."

"Keep your voice down! Talking about the city lord? Do you want to be kicked out of the city lord's mansion?"

"The city lord possesses the city lord's seal and city lord's token, two magical treasures in his possession. Moreover, he has done a great favor for the Ziwei family, saving the life of the Ziwei family's young master. No matter how strong the Cao and Gao families are, how could they possibly suppress our city lord?"

"makes sense!"

After seeing Lin Xuan enter the city lord's mansion, Niu Er and Qian Jinlai exchanged a few cautious words and then stopped talking, immediately transforming into extremely dignified expressions.
