"I've met the city lord, Butler Zhou."
Sikong Lian waved his hand and asked, "Is Mr. Xu still inside?"
"Always," the guard replied.
"After I went in, I never came out."
"Go and report it and tell the mayor to see him," Butler Zhou ordered.
The guard did not dare to hesitate, turned around and ran into the courtyard.
After a while, the guards came out first, followed by Xu Zimo swaggering over.
Sikong Lian was seen with his hands behind his back, looking Xu Zimo up and down.
When he looked at Xu Zimo, Xu Zimo also looked lazily after waking up from sleep and glanced at him.
"Are you the husband my daughter has found?" Sikong Lian asked directly without any nonsense.
"When did you meet?"
"I said it was love at first sight. Do you believe it, City Lord?" Xu Zimo said with a smile.
"You'd better think carefully before answering me," Sikong Lian said calmly.
"The city lord should ask Sikong Qing about this. I can't tell you anything. She knows better than me," Xu Zimo replied.
"You're not afraid of me," Sikong Lian narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xu Zimo's attitude and answers didn't seem to take him seriously.
As expected, as Butler Zhou said, this person is too calm.
Aren't you afraid of death?
"Why should I be afraid of you? If you want to fall in love, you have to risk your life," Xu Zimo said with a smile.
Sikong Lian frowned slightly.
He seemed to be deep in thought, and Xu Zimo gave him a very strange impression.
This made Sikong Lian a little unpredictable.
But he was not talking nonsense, but said: "You can marry Qingqing if you want, but there is a condition."
"No matter what I say in Heyang City, I am still the overlord of one side. What I say cannot be taken back."
"Now the entire Heyang City and even the surrounding cities know that I want to recruit a son-in-law."
"If nothing is done, the recruitment of a son-in-law will be cancelled. I'm afraid it won't be appropriate."
"The recruitment of a son-in-law will continue at that time. If you want to marry Qingqing, you can get the first place."
"If you can't do it, don't blame me for breaking you up."
"Everything in the world is all about cultivation," Xu Zimo replied.
“Some things are not about the result, but the process.”
At this time, a guard suddenly ran over in a panic.
"City Lord, someone is coming!"
"Who?" Sikong Lian said with a frown.
The guard looked at Xu Zimo, then at Sikong Lian, and said cautiously: "It's Lord Murong Jiankong of the Baori Sect."
"Lord Murong?" Sikong Lian's expression changed.
"What's he doing here at this time?"
"Steward Zhou, you talk to him first, and I'll go over and take a look."
Sikong Lian hurriedly walked outside.
Butler Zhou entertained Xu Zimo and briefly talked to Xu Zimo about the process of recruiting a son-in-law.
Basically, everyone can participate in this recruitment of a son-in-law.
As long as they come to Heyang City.
However, recruiting a son-in-law is divided into two assessments.
One must be a virgin.
In other words, being unmarried may sound simple, but with just such a threshold, it is estimated that it can block 90% of people.
The second threshold is to be able to practice ice attribute techniques.
Doesn't it sound very simple?
In fact, it can still block 99% of people.
Because this is the Fiery Realm.
The world of the Fire Tribe.
What people here hate most is water and ice.
As long as the power is opposed to the flame, it is not welcome in this world.
As for those who can actively use ice-attribute skills, they are even rarer.
Because the Blazing Fire Realm is empty for ten days, practicing the ice attribute here is as difficult as climbing to the sky.
Butler Zhou made it clear to Xu Zimo in advance.
It's like someone explaining the questions to you before taking an exam.
"Then what's the origin of Murong Jiankong?" Xu Zimo asked.
He was not interested in assessment.
"From the Baori Sect," Butler Zhou didn't say much, but a word from the Baori Sect was enough to explain everything.
Baori Sect is a very famous force in the Blazing Fire Region, and Heyang City is a force under the control of Baori Sect.
Murong Jiankong had a high status even in Baori Sect, let alone come to Heyang City.
………
After Butler Zhou explained something, he left.
After that, Xu Zimo never saw Sikong Qing.
In fact, he could tell at a glance that there was something wrong with Sikong Qing's body.
As a member of the Fire Tribe, Sikong Qing is not close to flames, but is very repulsive to them.
This is an inversion of yin and yang in the body, and the body falls into an alternative state.
Although Xu Zimo did not check carefully, he also knew that this state was very dangerous.
It is estimated that the recruitment of a son-in-law this time is not a simple recruitment. The main purpose is to cure Sikong Qing's illness.
Xu Zimo didn't know what method Sikong Lian was going to use, but it didn't matter anymore.
………
The day to recruit a son-in-law is set for tomorrow.
Tonight, Heyang City is very lively, with lights and colorful decorations, but it can also be said to be a sea of people.
No one bothered Xu Zimo until the next morning when a special guard came to call Xu Zimo.
It probably means that the recruitment of a son-in-law is about to begin, and Xu Zimo cannot have any privileges, so he should go for the assessment as soon as possible.
After walking out of the city lord's mansion, although it seemed that he was not following him.
But Xu Zimo could still sense that there were several people watching him secretly.
He swaggered down the street.
The water is blocked in front.
But when Xu Zimo left, there was a special force around him, pushing everyone in front to both sides.
He didn't have to do anything for those people to be pushed aside.
Some people saw this scene and felt that Xu Zimo was too domineering.
He shouted coldly and slapped Xu Zimo with his palm.
There was a "boom".
Xu Zimo was safe and sound, but the man was ejected directly.
This also made some people's expressions change, thinking that Xu Zimo was extraordinary.
Along the way, someone took action against Xu Zimo from time to time.
However, no one could get close to Xu Zimo, and they were all bounced away by the power of Xu Zimo's body.
In this way, Xu Zimo had an unobstructed journey and came directly to the high platform for assessment.
In fact, before the assessment, the City Lord's Mansion stated the requirement for the first assessment, virginity.
For a time, many people were in despair.
But there are still some people who want to fish in troubled waters with a sense of luck.
It's a pity that the city lord's palace is well prepared, they have special methods to detect virginity.
Anyone found guilty of cheating will be severely beaten.
Even though the requirements are so strict, the queue of people who want to participate is so long that it can almost circle around Heyang City.
After Xu Zimo walked up, he jumped in line.
The people in the City Lord's Mansion didn't say anything.
The person who was cut in line dared not speak out in anger.
Because along the way, Xu Zimo's strength is obvious to all.
City Lord Sikong Lian sat at the top.
On his left was Butler Zhou, and on his right was a person Xu Zimo had never seen before.
It should be Murong Jiankong.
