After a while, everyone gathered.
"Brother Ling, congratulations on your promotion to the position of city lord of the first-level main city!"
Lin Tianao raised his glass with a smile on his face. There was also a hint of envy in his tone. Although he was the prince of Xiliang and was now in the early stages of becoming a saint, he still could not aspire to the position of city lord of a first-level main city. Because of the rigid rules of a first-level main city, only large Only those with a Saint level cultivation level or above can strive for it. When he graduates, he will be able to obtain the position of city lord of a second-level main city at most.
"Thank you, Brother Lin!"
Ling Feng also raised his glass, and then drank with Lin Tianao.
Immediately, Dong Haichuan, Xie Jiangtao, Mo Yu and other friends raised their glasses and said, "Congratulations to Brother Ling on your promotion!"
Their cultivation has also improved very quickly over the years, and they have condensed the best souls. Their cultivation is close to the peak of martial masters, and their combat power is close to the saint level. But one step makes a world of difference. Saint-level graduates can compete for the position of city lord of the main city, but they can only start from the city lord of the state city. Moreover, if they want to obtain the position of city lord of the superior state city, some operations are required.
Ling Feng also raised his glass and said, "I also wish all brothers a bright future!"
Then Bai Xiaofeng, Yang Wei, Liang Shaogong and other senior officials of the Heroes Association also toasted to Ling Feng.
Immediately, Hong Yuanba, Fang Yingxue, Jiang Tao, Song Xinyao and other classmates also raised their glasses to toast, and they toasted separately. Hong Yuanba and Fang Yingxue are good friends. There are rumors that they are already together, but in fact they are still lovers. But Jiang Tao and Song Xinyao clearly walked together and spread dog food everywhere.
Ling Feng also toasted separately and said with a smile: "I also wish you a baby soon!"
Immediately, the group of people drank and ate.
Not long after, another guest came. Bai Haoyang and Zhao Chongyang from Lieyang College, Tang Dingkun from Huanglong College, Sun Qianwei from Tianlei College, Yi Tianyan from Suzaku College, Liu Wubing from White Tiger College and Yi Xiuying from Youying College, Feng Qianyuan from Shenfeng College, Qinglong College Liu Qingyun is among the top ten players in the virtual arena today.
Lin Tianao immediately arranged for a table of people to give up their seats. However, Bai Haoyang and others did not sit down, but each took a glass of wine.
Bai Haoyang smiled and said: "I originally planned to prepare some wine at Lieyang Club to see Brother Ling off. Unfortunately, I was still on a mission outside the territory today and came back late, so I borrowed President Lin's wine to toast Brother Ling!!"
Immediately, Zhao Chongyang, Tang Dingkun, Sun Qianwei, Yi Tianyan, Liu Wubing, Yi Xiuying, Feng Qianyuan, and Liu Qingyun all raised their glasses and said: "Brother Ling, I wish you a bright future!"
Ling Feng smiled and raised his glass, saying: "Thank you all!"
Immediately, both parties drank it all.
At this time, Bai Haoyang said: "Brother Ling, I have something else to do, so I won't disturb you for drinking. I hope we can have a drink together in the future!"
Ling Feng understood what Bai Haoyang meant. He wanted to recruit him. After all, after using the Breath Condensation Technique, it seemed that he was only at the level of the Great Sage, but Bai Haoyang was the son of the Jinyang Sage Emperor and had a strong background. It was still very promising to recruit a genius at the level of the Great Sage. Most of the young talents such as Zhao Chongyang and Tang Dingkun have been conquered by him. Unfortunately, he underestimated Ling Feng too much. Even the Holy Emperor Jinyang was not qualified to recruit Ling Feng.
Of course, Ling Feng did not explicitly refuse, he just pretended not to know and said with a smile: "There will be a chance!"
Immediately, Bai Haoyang and others left.
At this time, Lin Tianao's regard for Ling Feng had increased a lot, but he could no longer say anything to recruit him. Maybe others didn't notice, but he knew that Ling Feng actually rejected Bai Haoyang's solicitation just now. Although he was the prince of Xiliang, his status was still much lower than that of Bai Haoyang.
At this time, Ling Feng also wanted to recruit talents from the Heroes Association, even Lin Tianao, and the King of Xiliang, but he did not show his strength at this time, and there was no chance of speaking out, so he just drank as much as he wanted.
The group drank until late at night before dispersing.
…
The next morning, the sky was clear and clear.
Lin Tianao, Bai Xiaofeng, Dong Haichuan, Xie Jiangtao, Mo Yu and other friends bid farewell near the teleportation array in Jinyang Imperial City.
Ling Feng is now the incoming Lord of the first-level main city and can reach the Xiliang Royal City through the teleportation array for free.
Half an hour later, Ling Feng arrived at Xiliang Royal City. According to custom, before a new official takes office, he usually comes to pay homage to his superior. Ling Feng had a good relationship with Lin Tianao, the son of King Lin Tianyang of Xiliang. When passing through the royal city of Xiliang, it would be rude not to pay him a visit and it would cause misunderstanding.
Xiliang Prince's Mansion, lobby.
When Lin Tianyang saw Ling Feng, he was immediately stunned. Ling Feng's avatar was cultivated as a Holy King. His secret method of gathering breath could not be concealed from the Holy Master, but not from the Holy King at the same level. His first reaction was that Ling Feng was taken over by some old monster, because it was impossible to break through from the peak of King Wu to the realm of Saint King in ten years. The gap was really too big.
Fortunately, Ling Feng had already estimated the information about the exposure of his cultivation level, and promptly sent a message: "My lord, there is no need to be alarmed. Dean Hong of Xuanwu Academy can prove my identity for me!"
And showed Dean Hong’s Emperor Wu token. This token was given to him by Dean Hong last night to prepare for this situation.
When Lin Tianyang saw Dean Hong's token, he immediately no longer had any doubts.
Immediately, Ling Feng set up a soundproof barrier and said: "Your Majesty, actually I came here this time under the order of Dean Hong to perform a special task. I also ask Your Majesty not to expose my cultivation level."
He is really not pulling the flag. Dean Hong appointed him as the city lord of the first-level main city. He does have a purpose. He is to use his peerless genius as bait to continuously attract hatred and attract the Nine Nether Demon Emperor. Come out so you can take the opportunity to eradicate them. Otherwise, when Emperor Haoyang ascends and the world becomes turbulent, it will not be that easy to get rid of the Nine Nether Demon Emperor.
Lin Tianyang listened, nodded and said, "Don't worry, no one will know about this except me."
Afterwards, the two talked for an hour before Ling Feng said goodbye and left, passing through the Xiliang Royal City teleportation array and directly arriving at his destination, the main city of Wuwei.
Immediately, Ling Feng came to the city lord's mansion and took out the official seal and documents to hand over to the former city lord.
The former Lord of Wuwei City was an elegant middle-aged man wearing a blue official uniform. He was a great sage and a marquis named Wang Teng.
Wang Teng's handover was smooth, but Ling Feng soon discovered that the main city's accounts were almost empty. The main city of Wuwei is a first-class sacred place in Xiliang, and its tax revenue has always been extremely high. How could it be possible that there are only three melons and two dates left. Obviously, this person looked too ugly. He did such a trick before leaving. How could he just let it go?
Therefore, he immediately mobilized the elite troops from his cave world, took control of Wuwei City, and asked Concubine You, Qingzi and others to thoroughly check the accounts. Although Wang Teng's false accounting was perfect, as long as he found the person, it was easy to find out the problem. As for the denial, everything came out after some soul searching.
Three days later, Ling Feng threw the reconciled ledger in front of Wang Teng and said, "Should you make up for the missing amethyst coins and various high-end materials yourself, or let me hand over the evidence to the King of Xiliang!"
Wang Teng's forehead was dripping with cold sweat. He originally thought that Ling Feng was just a young boy who was lucky enough to get the opportunity. He didn't expect that the other party's methods were so powerful and he caught his vitals in one fell swoop. His father-in-law is the ancestor of the Chen family, the head of the four major families in the Xiliang Royal City. He is also a powerful Holy Lord, but he cannot deal with the Xiliang King. If Ling Feng really made a big deal, he would be in danger.
