"Huh? You want me to be the city lord?"
Li Jiu raised his head in shock, looked at Shi Yao in disbelief, and almost dropped the formation flag in his hand.
Could it be that he had been working too hard to make the formation disk recently and was too exhausted, which led to auditory hallucinations in his ears?
Shi Yao didn't even raise her head, and continued to load the spirit beads into the formation disk in her hand, and then slowly integrated her sword intention into the formation disk, with her expression as usual:
"You heard that right. From now on, you will be the city lord of Inland Sea. In addition, you can also continue to serve as the island lord of the three islands. Otherwise, I really don't have any manpower to manage the three islands."
What? Not only do you want to be the city lord, but you also want to continue to be the island lord of the three islands?
After getting along with True Lord Shi Yao for several months, Li Jiu has gradually come to know that although True Lord Shi Yao looks cold on the outside, she is actually an informal True Lord.
Therefore, he is no longer afraid of Shi Yao. He scratched his head and said what he was thinking in his heart: "Zhenjun, you know, disciple, I am really not suitable to be the lord of this city..."
Hearing this, Shi Yao glanced at him indifferently, "You can be the island owner of the three islands, why are you not suitable to be the city owner?"
Li Jiuteng's eyes widened, he stood up and spread his hands, "This, how can this be the same!"
Shi Yao shook his head slightly, "In my opinion, being an island lord and being a city lord are the same, there is no difference."
"Uh-" Li Jiu was stunned, and was immediately choked by Shi Yao's words. He was speechless and could only keep shouting in his heart:
You are the True Monarch of Nascent Soul, so of course you can take things so lightly, but how can I, Li Jiu, be like you!
You can destroy the sixth-level monster with one sword, and kill the frightening parasitic beast with one sword. With one sentence, you can make the monks in the inner sea remember it in their hearts and execute it immediately. If a messenger talisman flies back to the sect, it will be able to recruit people and resources...
But who am I, Li Jiu? I am just a True Lord Jiedan who has been stranded in the inner sea for many years. I am not some True Lord of Nascent Soul!
Moreover, although he is the owner of the three islands, in the past, he often listened to the suggestions and orders of Senior Brother Zhuoping...
After Shi Yao completely integrated the sword intention with the array, he raised his head and saw that Li Jiu still looked worried, so he said:
"This matter has been settled. If you feel that the complicated affairs in the inner sea are hindering your practice, you can train a few more foundation-building disciples and let them help you share the burden."
"No, Zhenjun, I haven't even agreed yet! Why have you decided?"
Li Jiu felt like his head was numb.
Is such a big matter not allowed to be discussed among multiple parties?
After Shi Yao finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to Li Jiu's meaningless words, and directly took the formation flag in his hand, took the formation disk in her hand, flew up, and stopped in mid-air above the three islands. middle.
She raised her hand and waved, "咻咻咻咻-" a few times, and then inserted the five formation flags in her hand around Mishima.
Immediately, she used her spiritual power to light up the formation disk and drive the formation.
Soon, light blue lights suddenly lit up one by one from the array.
Afterwards, these rays of light quickly flew towards where the five formation flags were.
Then, light blue light flashed where the five formation flags were. Then, the bright lights of these five array flags quickly connected with each other, and finally the blue light rose into the sky, forming a semicircular light array that firmly enveloped the entire three islands.
This scene has been seen by the monks within and outside the Three Islands, and they have all become accustomed to it.
In the past few months, various formations of light have risen into the sky on every island, and then firmly protected the islands.
As a result, everyone gradually came to know that it was Zhenjun Shi Yao, Zhenjun He and others who were setting up a new protective formation for the twenty-four islands - the Water Control Sword Formation.
This water-bending sword formation can not only mobilize the surrounding seawater protection islands, but also drop blades carrying terrifying murderous aura and chill. It can be said to be a rare formation that can both attack and defend.
This undoubtedly made the monks in the Inland Sea more excited, and at the same time a little more relieved, thinking: With True Lord Nascent Soul and this powerful formation around, the Inland Sea will surely become safer and safer.
Shi Yao set up the water sword array and tested the effect. He finally nodded with satisfaction, closed the array, put away the array flag, and flew down.
At this time, Li Jiu was still in a dilemma, and said, "True Lord, taking on the role of city lord is quite important. This disciple knows that his abilities are limited, and is afraid of letting down True Lord's good intentions——"
"You don't have to be too nervous." Shi Yao finally sighed in his heart.
She knew that Li Jiu had a bad temperament, that he was a little indecisive and not very confident.
But now in the Inner Sea, Zhuo Ping has left. The position of City Lord has been vacant for a long time. He is the only one who is Li Jiu, the disciple of Wanyan Sect who is stationed in the Inner Sea. Therefore, the position of City Lord belongs to him.
As for Shi Yao, although she will not refuse to deal with the general affairs related to the Inland Sea, she will definitely not be the city lord of the Inland Sea.
Without him, she just didn't want to be.
As the True Lord of Nascent Soul, she still has the right to "do whatever she wants".
So, Shi Yao said: "In the future, if you are undecided about something, you can come to me for discussion."
In the end, Li Jiu had no choice but to agree, "Yes, disciple, I obey."
At the same time, Li Jiu secretly encouraged himself, "I will definitely manage the inner sea well. If Senior Brother Zhuo comes back again, he will definitely look at me with admiration!"
It's a pity that after Li Jiucai took over as the Lord of Neihai City and handled the general affairs conscientiously for half a month, he came to Shi Yao again with a broken face.
Because Zhuoping's reconstruction of broken pills is not a secret in the entire inner sea. This is regrettable, but it also makes some people have more selfish thoughts and considerations.
Therefore, after Zhuoping left, slowly, one-tenth of the monks began to leave the inner sea in the teleportation array.
Li Jiuwan was extremely depressed, wondering if he had not done well enough, which caused the usually united Neihai monks to part ways.
Shi Yao didn't take this matter to heart, "It's okay if these people leave, don't worry too much."
Li Jiu: "My disciple is stupid, please give me some advice from the True Lord."
Shi Yao: "Their hearts are no longer in the inner sea. It is useless to force them to stay. Since they want to leave, let them do whatever they want."
If in the future, there is another tide of beasts in the inner sea, and even she, Shi Yao, is unable to defend the inner sea, then the number of these low-level monks will actually have no special significance.
Rather than letting people die in vain in the future, it would be better to let them leave early and live freely.
