Chapter 1088
Granny Yu said cautiously: "Will there be a decree? The major city lords who were summoned to Wuyou City by the Lord of Wuyou Realm in the past rarely returned, and decrees are even rarer."
Xiao Feng sighed: "It's hard to say, my father is a martial arts fanatic. It is rumored that Wuyou City has the opportunity to break through the fifth realm of Body Refining. I'm afraid he won't return, and he has forgotten about Yixian City."
Granny Yu frowned: "If that's the case, the second young master's side will inevitably be restless."
"So, I want to prepare for the martial arts battle to decide the position in advance! With your help, plus Uncle Tie sitting in town, even if Xiao Yun has help from outsiders, I think it will be difficult to make a climate."
Luo Chen sat in a corner, listening quietly to the discussion of several people, and gradually heard a general idea.
The City Lord Xiao's departure was ten years ago, and he never returned.
This strange situation was taken for granted by everyone in the hall, as if similar things often happened in this Great Destruction Realm.
Some people are afraid, while others are flocking to it, just because it is rumored that there is an opportunity to break through the fifth realm of Body Refining in Wuyou City.
Of course, those are things that fourth-realm martial artists need to consider. For third-realm martial artists like Xiao Feng, power, status, strength, and resources are what they focus on.
For ten years, the position of City Lord has been vacant. Even if Xiao Feng manages the City Lord's Mansion in the name of the Young City Lord, it is only temporary.
To become the true Lord of Yixian City, one must either obtain the decree of the previous City Lord and be recognized by the Wuyou special envoy, or decide the outcome through the purest martial arts battle.
For a big family like the Xiao family, it is naturally impossible for the City Lord candidates to play in person, so as not to hurt the so-called brotherhood, so there is the rule of martial arts battle to decide the position.
What Xiao Feng and others are talking about is preparing for this.
Martial arts battles usually have five rounds, so five people need to be sent. To ensure the winning rate, the bottom line must be a Furnace Realm powerhouse.
After listening to the general idea, Luo Chen felt bored, so he took the initiative to say goodbye and rest.
"Sanniang, you send the senior off for me!" Xiao Feng said so.
The beautiful woman in palace attire nodded, then smiled and left the table: "Senior Luo, please this way, your residence has been arranged."
Luo Chen said "Hmm", got up and followed Xiao Sanniang out of the main hall.
Behind him, gazes followed, one of which carried deep fear.
"This person is really rude. Does he really think he can still put on the airs of the past when he arrives at the Great Destruction Realm?" After Luo Chen left, Xiao Zirui was the first to express a sharp comment.
Granny Yu smiled: "Brother Xiao, you are still young and don't know the influence brought by the precipitation of time. Like those immortal cultivators, they have lived for thousands of years, and they are naturally used to being domineering outside."
Xiao Zirui snorted coldly: "If it weren't for the difference in this world, our Furnace Realm cultivators' lifespan might not exceed three hundred years, comparable to those Core Formation cultivators."
Granny Yu asked back: "How do you know what the realm of this Luo Chen was before he came in? What if it was the Soul Transformation Great Power realm similar to the Human Immortal Realm that breaks the void?"
"Soul Transformation Great Power? Him?" Xiao Zirui looked incredulous.
"Forget it, let's talk about the martial arts battle after the Wuyou special envoy arrives at the beginning of spring! My second brother has recruited a lot of good hands in recent years, so we need to respond early." Xiao Feng interrupted their discussion and brought the topic back.
Only then did everyone stop discussing Luo Chen and turned to talk about the intelligence they each knew.
After the banquet ended, Xiao Feng watched everyone disperse, leaving only the gloomy middle-aged man beside him.
Xiao Feng asked suddenly: "Uncle Tie, before entering the hall, you asked me to treat that Luo Chen with courtesy, why?"
The gloomy man, who had been silent from beginning to end, exhaled a turbid breath that had been suppressed for a long time, making a hoarse sound.
"That person is not easy to provoke!"
Xiao Feng frowned, his face puzzled.
"Even if he had the ability of Soul Transformation before, his strength is not one in ten thousand after drifting to this place. Is he that scary?"
Uncle Tie nodded solemnly: "Ordinary immortal cultivators are fine. Even if they disperse their magic power and transform into blood energy, they will stop at the peak of the Furnace Realm at most. But Luo Chen is different. He clearly looks like he only has the realm of the Blood River Realm, but the threat he brings to me under the induction of Qi is no less than that of a Leakless Realm existence!"
"How is that possible?"
Xiao Feng hissed, his eyes full of disbelief.
Before his father left, his realm was the fourth realm of Body Refining, a powerful existence who had cultivated the Leakless Golden Body!
Is this Luo Chen so hidden?
But Xiao Feng would not doubt Uncle Tie's judgment, because Uncle Tie is the only Leakless Realm powerhouse in Yixian City in recent years, even if he only broke through in recent years.
Especially the Qi induction method he mastered is said to be no less than the spiritual sense detection method of immortal cultivators.
Therefore, it cannot be fake!
Uncle Tie said "Hmm", his face still solemn: "I can't judge whether he has this normal strength himself, or whether he has similar explosive techniques as other immortal cultivators, but in short, this person should not be easily provoked."
The explosive technique of immortal cultivators is not strange to Xiao Feng.
In this Great Destruction Realm, the magic power, spiritual sense, and magic treasures of immortal cultivators are naturally suppressed, but this does not mean that the immortal cultivators who drift in are people to be slaughtered.
There are always those decisive people who will give up everything at the moment of life and death, exploding immortal attacks that even high-level martial artists can hardly resist.
Xiao Feng's expression became uncertain, as if he was calculating something.
Uncle Tie seemed to have guessed it, and asked immediately: "Do you want him to fight for you?"
Xiao Feng asked back: "Uncle Tie, what do you think?"
Uncle Tie hesitated: "Wait and see for now. If it's just an instantaneous explosive method, these immortal cultivators will definitely not use it easily. If it is normal strength, if you want to ask the other party to take action, I'm afraid you will have to pay a greater price."
Hearing this, Xiao Feng nodded subconsciously: "I think so too. Anyway, there is still time. Let's recruit this person as a guest official first and win him over. Sanniang's side should not disappoint me."
"Senior, this is the residence arranged for you by the Young City Lord. Are you satisfied?"
Behind the City Lord's Mansion, a quiet residence stood quietly in the night.
The lights inside had been lit, and figures could be seen walking around.
Luo Chen glanced at it casually and nodded noncommittally.
Seeing this, Xiao Sanniang smiled: "Then I don't know what other requirements Senior has for the Young City Lord's recruitment of guest officials?"
Xiao Feng showed great respect for Luo Chen, but the standard for recruiting guest officials was still about the same as others.
Independent residences, supporting servants and maids, resources needed for martial arts practice, monthly salaries for guest officials, etc.
These are enough for mortals, and they are things that many people cannot reach. But in Luo Chen's eyes, they were still ordinary, and he didn't show any excitement.
He looked at the beautiful woman in palace attire in front of him and asked unceremoniously: "Add one more, the City Lord's Mansion's collection of books can be borrowed by me at any time."
Xiao Sanniang was stunned: "This... I'm afraid I can't decide this matter."
"Then discuss it with your Young City Lord before talking."
Leaving this sentence behind, Luo Chen turned and entered the quiet residence.
The woman in palace attire stood outside the gate, her expression uncertain. Because the previous City Lord was a martial arts fanatic, the City Lord's Mansion collected many classics. Many guest officials were willing to worship under the Young City Lord because they coveted these classics.
The Young City Lord is naturally not stingy, but he also has to lend a part of them according to the contribution and service time of these guest officials.
Luo Chen came and wanted to borrow all of them, which was a bit out of line.
"Forget it, anyway, I have done what I should do. Let Xiao Feng worry about this kind of thing himself!"
