C488 The New City Lord
C488 The New City Lord
City Lord was dead?
Killed by that expert from the outside world?
The onlookers and the warriors who had won the competition were all shocked, including those who had just been captured by Zhao Chengwu.
Who would have thought that this foreign powerhouse would be so strong? He had actually killed their Silver City's famous city lord on the spot in just two short exchanges?
After regaining his senses, Chen Yunlong knelt in front of Su Ze.
"May this expert ascend to the position of city lord and become our new city lord!"
The others also regained their senses and quickly knelt down to greet this expert, Su Ze.
"Please become our new City Lord!"
"Please become our new city lord! We will definitely become stronger because of this!"
As they spoke, they could not help but smile. They were celebrating the arrival of new and stronger experts to become their new city lord.
When Su Ze saw this scene, there wasn't any joy in his heart. There was only coldness.
"Humans are not plants, how can they be heartless!? Zhao Chengwu's corpse is still warm, these Silver City's martial artists flatter me like this, there is actually no one who is loyal, only the strong deserve to obtain everything..."
As their city lord, it means that they must be strong forever, so that they can always gain their respect, right?
Otherwise, once they are weak, once they die, they will abandon them, and they will be nothing!
"I have no intention of being your City Lord!" Su Ze said, "I have other matters to attend to. You can choose your own City Lord."
After saying that, he turned around and left. He took a deep look at Chen Yunlong, who had a joyful look on his face, and then disappeared.
So it was his plot! ...
Watching "Qingming" leave, Chen Yunlong let out a long breath. Things had gone smoother than he had imagined!
He originally thought that Zhao Chengwu and the new Martial Cultivator of Fusion Stage, "Qingming," would have a fight. It would be best if both sides would suffer heavy losses. If Zhao Chengwu was seriously injured, he would be able to strike quietly and kill him while Zhao Chengwu was unprepared.
If Zhao Chengwu wasn't seriously injured, he would be able to see his strength clearly. In the future, he would have to carefully plan for the position of City Lord.
The result was something he did not expect. Zhao Chengwu had clearly sensed that something was wrong, but he still challenged him because of "Qingming's" impolite attitude, in an attempt to prove that he was strong.
After that, he was killed by Qingming with just two attacks, and he was even killed by his own deadly poison.
Chen Yunlong felt that luck was making a fool of him just now. A Zhao Chengwu had died, and a Qingming that was much stronger than Zhao Chengwu had appeared once again. It was only logical for him to become the City Lord of Silver City, and it was very likely that he would become the strongest City Lord. He would never have the chance to obtain the position of City Lord again.
Right at this moment, what was even more unexpected to him was that "Qingming" was really just passing by. He simply didn't take the position of city lord of Silver City to heart and directly left!
The position of City Lord had fallen into Chen Yunlong's arms just like that. It simply made Chen Yunlong unable to restrain himself any longer. He broke his usual cold and solitary expression and revealed a joyful expression.
However, the moment he revealed a joyful expression, he could feel the 'clarity' in his eyes.
He knew everything, but he was too lazy to care about this kind of thing!
Chen Yunlong swallowed his saliva slightly. It was hard to imagine what kind of mentality and realm this person was in, and what kind of person he should be. That was why he was so indifferent to the position of the city lord.
He had seen through everything, but he didn't want to spend time caring about it. How good would his daily life be?
Thinking of this, a guess popped up in Chen Yunlong's heart: Lord Qingming is probably not an ordinary person, but an elite inner circle disciple of a big sect! The difference between him and us is like the difference between a bright moon in the sky and a firefly on the ground. This ridiculous pursuit of mine should not be worth mentioning in his eyes.
As he was thinking, Chen Yunlong suddenly felt that the atmosphere was not right. When he came back to his senses, he saw that those Martial Cultivator of Body Leaving Stage all had vigilant expressions, and their eyes were filled with greed.
He had almost forgotten that he had to wait for the high position of City Lord, and he had to deal with them before he could officially become the strongest person in Silver City and ascend to that position.
"The former city lord of Silver City, Zhao Chengwu, was killed because he didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth and provoked the powerful Lord Qingming who passed by. Putting aside the fact that he had brought this upon himself, and Lord Qingming had no intention of becoming the city lord, the position of the city lord of Silver City is still hanging in the air."
"According to our rules, the City Lord can only be the strongest expert in Silver City. Currently, the strongest Body Leaving Stage expert is the City Lord of Silver City. No one has any objections, right?"
"No objections!" Everyone replied.
"That's good." The martial artist who had taken first place in the previous Silver Links City martial competition stood out. "From today onwards, I am the Silver Links City's City Lord -"
Chen Yunlong shook his head slightly and walked in front of him.
"You can't."
The warrior who had won the first place was furious. "Why can't I? I am the strongest Body Leaving Stage warrior, and the one who won the first place was me!"
"Yes, it is indeed you."
Chen Yunlong raised his hand and pierced it into his chest at an extremely fast speed. "But that is when I did not attack seriously!"
"Wah!" That martial artist screamed as he spat out large mouthfuls of blood. He fell to the ground and died from exhaustion.
"You really can't do it." Chen Yunlong flung away the fresh blood on his palm and raised his head. "From today onwards, I am Silver City's City Lord, Chen Yunlong!"
The Martial Cultivator of Body Leaving Stage exchanged glances. They could all tell how powerful he was from his ability to easily kill the first martial artist. They had to admit that it was difficult for them to do so, and it was also difficult for them to resist such an attack. All of them had chosen to submit to him.
As they chose to submit, the other observers also chose to submit.
After a moment, everyone present acknowledged the new city lord, Chen Yunlong.
"Greetings, City Lord!"
Chen Yunlong's face was filled with joy. He crossed his hands behind his back and his fingers were trembling.
Finally, he had ascended to this position.
"The rewards for the martial arts competition will continue to be distributed. The young martial artists who were selected will be ready. The people from the Lianshan Sect will arrive in two days. You must serve them well and let the adults of the Lianshan Sect return with a bountiful harvest!"
As Chen Yunlong spoke, his joy gradually faded. He had to pass the trial of the Lianshan Sect as well. Although ordinary sects were too lazy to care about the alternation of the city lords, now Silver City had changed from the original city lord of the Martial Cultivator of Fusion Stage to the city lord of the Martial Cultivator of Body Leaving Stage. Who knew if the Lianshan Sect would have any objections about this?
Not far from Silver City, Su Ze, who was wearing a bamboo hat, heard City Lord's shout and shook his head slightly.
This sort of scheming, let them go.
Searching along the streets and alleys, what he heard were discussions about martial arts competitions. Su Ze only found his target in a remote alley, a bookstore.
