Chapter 1198

No immortal who can cultivate to the Golden Immortal Stage is a fool.

The City Lord and the Deputy City Lord just work together; there is no bond of being from the same sect.

Just now, Deputy City Lord Duan requested the City Lord to make a move while emotionally agitated, and the City Lord could only respond vaguely in his haste.

Agree?

Are you kidding me?

Why should I intervene in your karma?

But after all, they see each other every day, so the City Lord couldn't refuse directly and could only be vague.

"Unrelated personnel, leave immediately!" The City Lord waved his hand, and the onlookers outside ran away completely.

His gaze fell on Elder Liu again: "Elder Liu, what is going on with these people?"

Elder Liu said: "These people just participated in the formation-charging test and haven't gone to exchange for their Heaven-Ascending Tokens yet!"

"Then hurry up!" The City Lord frowned and waved his hand: "Hurry up and exchange for the Heaven-Ascending Tokens, then go do whatever you need to do, don't gather here!"

The City Lord already knew the ins and outs of the matter; everyone is not stupid, and who is right and who is wrong is clear. If they continue to gather here, it will only smear the reputation of the City Lord's Mansion.

Therefore, the City Lord did not want people to gather and cause trouble.

After receiving the City Lord's order, everyone scurried into the exchange hall.

Only He Pingsheng, Ji Wuxin, and Wen Buwan remained without moving!

"Why aren't you three going?" The City Lord stared at the three and asked.

Ji Wuxin said: "Reporting to the City Lord, just now I saw Elder Liu acting unfairly, so I spoke up to criticize him a couple of times. Elder Liu then canceled the junior's results, so the junior doesn't need to exchange anymore!"

He Pingsheng said: "Just now, that Daoist Peng Lai bullied the small with the big and attacked me. I just countered in the moment, and Elder Liu labeled me as a troublemaker and also canceled my results!"

Wen Buwan said: "My brother's results were canceled, so I don't want to exchange either!"

After speaking, the three of them each took out their gold tokens.

The City Lord nodded and said: "I hope you can take this as a warning!"

He wouldn't care about such trivial matters; what he cared about was dispersing the crowd as quickly as possible and then how to deal with the aftermath.

There were naturally black-clad Heaven Immortals nearby who ran over to take away the golden tokens in the hands of the three.

But the black-clad Heaven Immortal had only walked a few steps when he shouted in shock: "Nine segments... heavens... nine segments..."

"This, this, this... this... nine segments, fourteen points..."

"It's actually nine segments, fourteen points!"

The black-clad Heaven Immortal was completely stunned; he turned around, shouting continuously, while looking at the City Lord.

At this very moment, everyone, including the City Lord, found it somewhat unbelievable.

"What do you mean?" The City Lord asked: "Are you saying that here, we detected a nine-segment, fourteen-point result?"

"How is that possible?"

For countless years in the past, in the standard Heaven Gate Formation here, the highest a Heaven Immortal had ever reached was only seven segments, ninety-nine points.

Now you're skipping eight segments and giving me a nine-segment, fourteen-point result?

"Yes, yes, yes..." The black-clad Golden Immortal held the three stacked gold tokens and respectfully presented them to the City Lord, saying: "City Lord, look, this really is nine segments, fourteen points... this cannot be faked!"

"Hiss, hiss, hiss..." The City Lord, the Deputy City Lord, and Elder Liu all gasped.

The City Lord took the three stacked gold tokens and asked: "You three, who is the nine-segment, fourteen-point result?"

Wen Buwan raised her hand somewhat timidly and said: "City Lord, it's... it's me..."

Everyone's gaze instantly gathered on Wen Buwan.

"What a beautiful female immortal..."

"Hiss, hiss, hiss, so beautiful!"

"I didn't even notice just now!"

"Heavens, so beautiful, and such a high segment rank, she really is a heaven-favored child!"

"Was it this fairy that Duan Beifeng was desecrating earlier?"

"Sure enough, he wasn't worthy!"

The people around who hadn't left yet began to discuss one after another.

The City Lord was even more excited, his whole body shaking: "Good, good, good... what is your name? How about staying in the City Lord's Mansion from now on and becoming my disciple?"

"Don't worry, as long as you become my disciple, I can pass on my entire life's inheritance to you!"

Wen Buwan shook her head, hugged He Pingsheng's arm with both hands, and said: "My name is Wen Buwan, but there's no need, City Lord, I want to follow my husband!"

"Hmph..." Deputy City Lord Duan snorted coldly: "Now, he is no longer worthy of you!"

"Do you know what nine segments mean?"

Wen Buwan ignored her, only hugging He Pingsheng's arm tighter.

"Uh..." The City Lord tried to make his tone sound as gentle as possible: "Wen Buwan, although what Deputy City Lord Duan said is unpleasant, it is the truth!"

"How about this, if you are willing to become my disciple, your husband can also join my sect together. When the time comes, in the City Lord's Mansion, I can protect the two of you in safety!"

"How about it?"

At this, Wen Buwan hesitated, but she wouldn't make a decision, instead looking at He Pingsheng.

Everything was based on He Pingsheng's attitude.

He Pingsheng shook his head gently.

Wen Buwan then immediately said decisively: "My husband doesn't agree, sorry, City Lord!"

"You..." Seeing this scene, the City Lord was almost so angry his liver hurt: Good heavens... where can one go to reason this out?

A peerless nine-segment heaven-favored child, yet she listens to this brat, this...

Sigh...

"Hehehe..." Deputy City Lord Duan gave a cold laugh, revealing her snow-white teeth, which flashed with killing intent: "Fool... a piece of trash, I looked highly upon you just a moment ago, but now it seems this dog thing is nothing more than this!"

Just at this moment, the City Lord was frowning and thinking about how to persuade Wen Buwan, while he was also boredly flipping the gold tokens in his hand, when he suddenly saw the second gold token.

He only saw a nine.

Then he hurriedly moved Wen Buwan's gold token aside to take a look, and upon seeing it, his soul almost left his body.

"F... f*ck..."

"F*ck..."

The City Lord couldn't help but let out three profanities in one breath, then took a deep breath and said: "Nine segments, ninety-nine points... who?"

"Who is the nine-segment, ninety-nine-point result?"

At this very moment, the City Lord looked at He Pingsheng and Ji Wuxin, feeling as if his body was no longer his own.

Numb, completely numb!

The people around, hearing the City Lord's words, naturally couldn't stay calm either; they began to discuss excitedly, completely ignoring the City Lord's earlier instruction for everyone to leave quickly.

"Nine segments, ninety-nine points?"

"How is that possible?"

"A top-tier score!"

"F*ck, this is the absolute top!"

Deputy City Lord Duan's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she felt completely numb.

After two breaths, she finally took a deep breath and looked at He Pingsheng again.

At this moment, what she feared most was that He Pingsheng was the one with the nine-segment, ninety-nine-point result.

"Who exactly is it?" The City Lord asked again.

At this, Ji Wuxin looked at He Pingsheng, and He Pingsheng looked at Ji Wuxin.

Good heavens, this question actually stumped the two of them.

Who the hell knows whose token this is?

"Why aren't you talking?" The City Lord's face darkened, and he continued to ask: "Could it be... there's some trickery with the numbers on these gold tokens?"

"No!" Ji Wuxin spoke up, bowing to the City Lord: "City Lord, this question of yours is hard to answer!"

"Because I don't know whose it is either!"

"Why don't you take a look at the third token?"
