Chapter 407 Intimidation, Powerful Background!!

Inside Andong City.

Everything was extremely peaceful.

On the wide street in front of the city lord's mansion, a carriage pulled by two Transcending Tribulation Realm spirit beasts slowly approached from a distance. Each of the carriages pulled by the spirit beasts was extremely luxurious.

The materials used to build this carriage all appear to be spirit wood of grade nine or higher, and the carriage floats in the air.

They came rushing in from both directions.

Niu Er and Qian Jinlai were guarding outside the city lord's mansion.

Upon seeing the marks of the Cao and Gao families branded on the carriage, the two men's pupils suddenly contracted, and they exchanged a glance.

They didn't expect it.

The seemingly young new city lord, on his very first day at the city lord's mansion, chose to put pressure on the two most powerful families in Andong City, the Cao family and the Gao family.

These two family forces are the strongest in Andong City, each with a Void Realm expert in charge.

It can be described as a dominant force in the region.

Every family power within Andong City was subordinate to the two major families, and the Cao and Gao families could be said to have completely usurped the position of the City Lord's Mansion.

prior to.

When the Cao family temporarily assumed the position of city lord.

They did try to take action against the Gao family, but the results were minimal.

After all, the Gao family is deeply rooted in Andong City. The two families have been in a stalemate for hundreds of thousands of years. Some of the city lords who were assigned here also wanted to fight with them.

However, the Void Realm experts from both families are not to be trifled with. Although the city lords appointed by them have the city lord's seal issued by Ziwei City, they can only serve as city lords for a short time.

Most people just wanted to get by and had no intention of fighting against the two families in the city who each had a Void Realm expert.

Therefore, the power of these two families has become increasingly formidable. After so many years, these two families have become two deeply rooted giants in Andong City.

All the forces within the city sided with him.

The entrance to the city lord's mansion.

Niu Er and Qian Jinlai naturally both imply what this means.

The reason why the Cao family head was asked to temporarily act as the city lord last time was because many of the city lords appointed by the Ziwei family were unwilling to go to Andong City to become a city lord who was completely sidelined.

Wow!

Wow!

next moment.

Suddenly, a gentle breeze lifted the two curtains of the carriage.

Two tall, upright old men emerged from among them. Both had white hair and beards and exuded an aura of otherworldly grace, like ancient immortals wandering the heavens.

Cao Yi, the old patriarch of the Cao family, dressed in a black robe, slowly stepped down from the floating carriage.

The Gao family's patriarch, Gao Ming, was dressed in a white Confucian robe and had a gentle demeanor. When he saw the Cao family's patriarch opposite him, he still had that calm smile on his face.

After Cao Yi and Gao Ming got off the carriage, they looked at each other.

Although both of them maintained a nonchalant expression.

But after so many years of getting along, they seem to have seen through each other's thoughts.

The city lord who came this time was different from the previous ones. They all had their own informants in the city lord's mansion. Although they didn't know much about the new city lord, they already knew the most important point.

That is, the other party is not the temporary city lord previously appointed by the Ziwei family.

Instead, he granted Andong City as a fiefdom to the new city lord.

On this fiefdom, they could safely choose to leave Andong City.

Having lived in Andong City for so long, how could they bear to leave and go to an unfamiliar city to continue their struggle with the local forces?

Niu Er and Qian Jinlai, standing at the door, didn't dare to breathe loudly at that moment.

If they hadn't guessed, the two old men who dismounted from their horses were undoubtedly the two Void Realm ancestors of the Cao and Gao families in the present day.

A Void Realm expert!

Having lived in Andong City for so long, they had rarely seen two Void Realm experts appear together.

"Brother Gao, this time we're probably in for some trouble!"

"Brother Cao, what makes you say that?"

“Unlike Brother Cao, I haven’t swallowed some of Andong City’s spirit stones and taxes. What trouble could I possibly get? From what I’ve gathered, this new city lord is very young and only at the Longevity Realm. I think if he’s sensible, he certainly won’t oppose my Gao family!”

Gao Ming said with a smile.

"Hmph, where did you hear that I embezzled spirit stones and taxes?"

"Don't worry about it!"

"Although Andong City is now the fiefdom of the new city lord, judging from the strength he has shown so far, it is still not enough. Although we do not know his background, we will find out in the future!"

As the saying goes, even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake!

"This new city lord is still young, let's take it one step at a time and see!"

After saying a few more words, Gao Ming quickened his pace.

The words fell.

After a few breaths.

The two then went up to the main hall.

The two had just entered the main hall.

Then they saw Lin Xuan finish refining the City Lord's Seal. The raging spiritual fire enveloped the orange-yellow City Lord's Seal, and with several hand seals cast, all the marks on the City Lord's Seal were completed.

hum!

Followed by.

The city lord's seal turned into a blur and instantly merged into Lin Xuan's brow, disappearing without a trace like melting snow.

For an instant.

An aerial view of the entire Andong City immediately appeared in Lin Xuan's mind.

Moreover, this picture clearly shows everything that is happening in Andong City right now, and the many magic arrays within the city that can kill those at the Undying Realm also appear in my mind.

Inside the city lord's mansion, there is also a Void Array.

Although it is a defensive formation, Lin Xuan's mastery of formations allows him to transform it into a combined offensive and defensive formation.

"This……"

When the two patriarchs of the Cao and Gao families stepped into the main hall, a look of surprise appeared in their eyes when they saw Lin Xuan refine the City Lord's Seal.

Based on the information they received...

The new city lord was only decided in the last two days.

But now they have finished refining the city lord's seal, which far exceeds their expectations.

This city lord's seal is equivalent to an indestructible treasure.

Even for cultivators of the same level in the Undying Realm, it would be absolutely impossible to complete the City Lord's Seal in less than two or three years, and that's a fast estimate.

If a cultivator at the Longevity Realm wants to refine it...

According to Cao Yi and Gao Ming's predictions, it would probably take at least twenty or thirty years to complete.

And unlike the acting city lord.

The acting city lord can only refine up to 50% of the city lord's seal. After that, due to restrictions, he cannot continue refining it. However, the city lord who has Andong City as his fiefdom can refine it completely to 100%.

and.

They were all fully aware of this.

After refining the City Lord's Seal, it will be able to activate the Void Array of the City Lord's Mansion.

Gao Ming and Cao Yi exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of apprehension in each other's eyes.

"This seemingly young cultivator is indeed extraordinary!"

Gao Ming was shocked.

However, a sense of panic arose in Cao Yi's heart.

And just then.

After surveying the main hall, Gao Ming and Cao Yi also clearly saw Su Xiaoxiao standing next to Lin Xuan. Her white dress made her look incredibly cute and delicate, making one want to pinch her cheeks, though of course, they only thought about it.

"Young Master!"

Gao Ming and Cao Yi, who had initially appeared somewhat indifferent, both showed surprise upon seeing Su Xiaoxiao. They hurriedly entered the main hall, bowed to Su Xiaoxiao, and spoke in an extremely respectful tone.

"kindness?"

"Do you two old men know me?"

Sitting next to Lin Xuan, Su Xiaoxiao looked at the two white-bearded old men who were bowing respectfully to her, and asked with a puzzled look in her crystal eyes.

In Su Xiaoxiao's memory, she had absolutely no recollection of these two old men.

Seeing Su Xiaoxiao's reply, Cao Yi and Gao Ming were not angry at all. Instead, they showed kind smiles and said with a hint of respect, "Last year, we had the honor of seeing the young master in the main hall of the Ziwei family. We are old ministers and could not get close. We are overjoyed to see the young master again today!"

We are overjoyed!

After Cao Yi finished speaking, Gao Ming, who was standing next to him, echoed his words.

"Oh!"

Su Xiaoxiao replied in a very perfunctory manner.

At this time.

After receiving the city lord's seal, Lin Xuan glanced calmly at the two old clan leaders below and slowly asked, "Which of you is the head of the Cao family?"

After asking.

Cao Yi, the patriarch of the Cao family, immediately stepped forward and bowed slightly, saying, "Lord City Lord, I am Cao Yi, the patriarch of the Cao family!"

At this moment, Cao Yi and Gao Ming became quite respectful towards Lin Xuan.

The fact that even the young master of the Ziwei family can be by this person's side is enough to show how capable the new city lord is.

Their attitude naturally had to become better.

Meanwhile, the steward and his companions, who were waiting for orders, saw how respectfully the two patriarchs of the Cao and Gao families treated the young girl next to the new city lord. From their conversation, they could now guess the girl's identity: she was the most talented member of the Ziwei family.

Her name is Su Xiaoxiao.

Even within Andong City, they had heard that Su Xiaoxiao was the most talented member of the Ziwei family, and that she was deeply favored by the old patriarch. It was a rare case of a talented direct descendant like Su Xiaoxiao being so highly regarded.

This is evident from the above.

This Su Xiaoxiao is very likely to be the next patriarch of the Ziwei family, an existence who inherits the advanced star laws!

A look of seriousness flashed across the eyes of Butler Murong and the other managers.

At the same time, Butler Murong wiped the sweat from his forehead. Fortunately, he had just presented Lin Xuan with some true information, which included the matter of Cao Yi, the old patriarch of the Cao family, embezzling some spirit stone taxes.

The main issue is with Steward Murong; Andong City is already Lin Xuan's fiefdom.

Regardless, it was ultimately the Ziwei family that bestowed the title. If the new city lord were to learn the truth in the future, he would certainly not have a good outcome. Fortunately, his decision was not wrong.

Unexpectedly, the new city lord's methods are so powerful that he can make the young master obediently follow him, and the young master is very affectionate towards him.

It was as if they had known each other for a long time.

Butler Murong and the other butlers took another look at Lin Xuan's handsome face. When they saw Su Xiaoxiao stealing glances at Lin Xuan from time to time, they suddenly had a realization.

This new city lord is so young!

Young Master Su Xiaoxiao was also following closely by his side.

This is clearly the son-in-law that Su Xiaoxiao will raise in the future Ziwei family!

"Child adopter?"

"I've never heard of it before?"

A hint of doubt appeared in Butler Murong's eyes, but they felt that their guess was pretty much correct.

Unexpectedly, the new city lord who came to serve in our Andong City has such a powerful backer.

Butler Murong and the other managers all revealed a determined look in their eyes; they were determined to cling to such a powerful patron.

"What are your orders, Lord City Lord?"

After Cao Yi came out, he saw Lin Xuan remain silent for a moment, and then slowly asked.

"Don't you know why I called you out?"

Lin Xuan looked at the white-bearded old man in front of him with great interest.

This old man was pretending to be confused when he knew the truth in his heart.

"I'll give you three breaths to consider. If you still don't know why, then your Cao family can be expelled from Andong City?"

"Of course, I'm not killing you, I'm just driving your Cao family out. Andong City is now my fiefdom, do you understand?"

Lin Xuan didn't say much, only hinting at the point.

The two old patriarchs of the Cao and Gao families had only reached the Void Realm by relying on ordinary Five Elements Laws. Of course, reaching the Void Realm by relying on the Five Elements Laws was already the limit. Both of them were only at the first level of the Void Realm, and their combat power was greatly reduced due to the limitation of lifespan. With the City Lord's Seal under their control and the Void Realm's Ferocious Insects, dealing with these two old men was a piece of cake.

"Lord City Lord!"

Cao Yi frowned slightly.

At this time.

Cao Yi glanced at Su Xiaoxiao, who was looking him up and down beside Lin Xuan, and panicked. He hurriedly took off the storage ring on his hand.

Furthermore, with sweat beading on his forehead, he said to Lin Xuan, "Lord City Lord, when I was temporarily acting as the Lord of Andong City, I made a mistake and committed a grave error, embezzling a considerable amount of spirit stone taxes. This storage ring contains the spirit stone taxes collected over the years, with detailed records for each transaction. It also contains four immortal spirit stones. Please accept them, Lord City Lord!"

"Four Immortal Spirit Stones!"

Upon hearing about the four immortal spirit stones, Lin Xuan's eyes lit up with interest. He looked Cao Yi, who was standing in the main hall, up and down. These four immortal spirit stones must be what the old man used to apologize.

"You actually dare to covet the spirit stone tax revenue of a city!"

"Are you really not afraid of death, old man?"

Su Xiaoxiao, standing beside Lin Xuan, spoke with a hint of anger in her bright eyes.

thump!

Upon hearing Su Xiaoxiao's reprimand, Cao Yi immediately knelt on the ground.

"Young Master is right to scold me; I was just confused for a moment!"

"I hope that you, young master, can understand my situation!"

Cao Yi said in a flustered tone.

Cao Yi wasn't afraid of the new city lord, but Su Xiaoxiao was the most beloved person of the old patriarch of the Ziwei family. Moreover, his uncle was the head of the family and had authority over certain matters. He would definitely be punished for doing such a thing. At worst, his family would be raided, and at least he would be imprisoned and his family would be expelled.

Moreover, this kind of thing can be accomplished with just a word from Su Xiaoxiao.

But for Cao Yi, it was like the sky had fallen and the earth had collapsed.

"Humph!"

"If I had known this, why did I do it in the first place!"

"My Ziwei family owes my brother Lin Xuan a great debt of gratitude. This fiefdom was also personally bestowed upon us by my grandfather. Who knew that there would be someone like you in Andong City? If my grandfather finds out, your entire Cao family can expect to be imprisoned!"

Su Xiaoxiao said with a hint of anger in her bright eyes.

"The whole family will be detained!"

Cao Yi's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately knelt down before Lin Xuan.

Upon hearing Su Xiaoxiao's words, everyone in the hall changed their expressions. Even Gao Ming, who was behind Cao Yi, also showed a slight change in expression as if he had thought of something.

Now they understand that the new city lord's background is none other than the Ziwei family!
