As for the rewards, Yang Chen didn’t rush to mention them, as he didn’t like negotiating with others before accomplishing anything.
This also caused Zhou Haoran to secretly admire Yang Chen a bit more. Not only was Yang Chen extremely talented, but his disposition was also impeccable in their eyes. They originally thought that since they needed Yang Chen’s help, he would inevitably take this opportunity to make excessive demands. However, they didn’t expect that Yang Chen had no such intention.
Before accomplishing anything, he didn’t even think about setting any conditions.
This also made them sigh secretly. Although Zhou Yunxi had decent talent, her temperament was far inferior to Yang Chen’s; she seemed more like an immature girl in comparison.
It seemed to prove the saying: There are always superior individuals and
higher mountains.
And so, they reached an agreement, and in the afternoon, a large team from the Zhou family set off for the MO City City Lord Mansion.
The construction of MO City’s City Lord Mansion was similar to Liaocheng’s, and its scale was even more impressive than Liaocheng’s. Even the martial artists’ Martial Arts Cultivation in MO City caused Yang Chen to be secretly astonished. It had to be said that MO City’s strength was more than a notch above Liaocheng’s.
Not to mention anything else, the MO City City Lord Mansion wasn’t even run by the current head of MO City, and its strong figures in the city were more formidable than those in the Liaocheng City Lord Mansion.
Yang Chen, in the Zhou family crowd, did not stand out.
He glanced around and muttered to himself, “It seems that the rumors about MO City City Lord Mansion and Zhou family having a grudge are true. Although the guards let us through all the way, they didn’t even exchange pleasantries with the Zhou family members. It seems that there really are a lot of private feuds between the two sides, otherwise, there would at least be some polite remarks.”
Seeing this scene, Yang Chen couldn’t help but lower his opinion of the MO City City Lord Mansion’s magnanimity.
Since they were the Mansion’s people, they should display the demeanor of MO City’s public figures. Even if they had enmity and resentment with others, they should still value the principles of courtesy. That was the manifestation of a generous heart.
If a force couldn’t show enough magnanimity, being replaced by others was just a matter of time.
Lost in thought, Yang Chen glanced around, “Master Zhou, it seems that the strength of different cities varies greatly.”
“Of course, our MO City is a first-class city in North Mountain County!” Zhou Haoran said with a light smile, “Seeing that Yang Chen, my friend, has traveled through so many cities along the way, it’s normal for you to have this doubt!” “First-class city? What does that mean?” Yang Chen asked curiously.
Zhou Yuan hurriedly explained, “The strength of the cities is divided into clear tiers. For example, our MO City is very close to the Beishan Main City, and its overall strength is strong. Naturally, it’s classified as a first-class city. Going down from there, there are second-class cities and third-class cities!”
“Going up, there are cities at the main city level! ” Yang Chen touched his chin and pondered for a moment.
No wonder.
If it were divided this way, the strength of Liaocheng would likely be barely a third-class city.
After all, he had passed through many cities along the way, and many of them were stronger than Liaocheng.
Zhou Haoran’s attitude towards Yang Chen had changed from the beginning to the present with a complete 180-degree turn. He patiently explained, “The main cities are divided into three: Beishan Main City, Descending Dragon City, and Cloud Water City. These three cities are all under the jurisdiction of Beishan Main City and are considered top -class city forces! The power of each city is no less than that of the Six Sects! ”
“So that’s how it is,” Yang Chen exclaimed in sudden realization.
It seemed that the Six Sects, though powerful, were nothing in front of Beishan Main City.
As they were lost in thought, the Zhou family members arrived at the MO City City Lord Mansion’s Great Hall.
At that moment, a cheerful laughter entered the ears of the crowd.
“Friends of the Zhou family are indeed punctual! All of you are esteemed guests, please come in!” A middle-aged man dressed in a black robe stood not far away with his hands behind his back, a smile on his face, but there was a hint of insincerity beneath it.
Zhou Haoran snorted coldly but didn’t pretend, and slowly said, “Then we of
the Zhou family will not stand on ceremony.”
As Zhou Haoran and the middle-aged man were talking, Zhou Yuan spoke up, worried that Yang Chen would not know, “This man is the City Lord of MO City
City Lord Mansion. His strength has reached the Origin Martial Realm Third
Layer, one layer lower than our Family Head. He is very resentful about this! He even found an excuse to challenge our Family Head privately, but unfortunately, he still fell short.”
Yang Chen nodded in acknowledgment.
In an instant, the Zhou family members entered the Great Hall and took their seats in the City Lord’s Mansion.
That City Lord of MO City, Feng Jindao, stroked his small goatee and appeared to be kind and affable, “What are you waiting for? Serve tea to the members of the Zhou family!”
Seeing Feng Jindao’s pretentious expression, Zhou Haoran snorted, “Thank you, City Lord Feng.”
“No need to be polite, no need to be polite. Brother Zhou, your Zhou family’s little girl Yunxi is the trump card for our City Lord Mansion’s Genius Selection Competition this year,” Feng Jindao said while glancing at Zhou Yunxi who had seated herself, his eyes narrowing with a feigned smile.
Zhou Yunxi had actually woken up?
This surprised him.
However, with his rich experience, he could tell at a glance that Zhou Yunxi’s injuries had clearly not healed yet.
This made the corners of his lips rise as he said, “Yunxi, our MO City is counting on you this time. If you can bring glory to MO City and win the favor of Beishan Main City, your uncle will surely reward you handsomely!”
“Thank you, Uncle Feng,” Zhou Yunxi stood up and bowed slightly.
Feng Jindao coughed twice, “You don’t have to thank me just yet. If you want to win honor for MO City, Yunxi, it’s not that your uncle wants to test you. If your Zhou family wants to get the City Lord’s Command and participate in the Genius Selection Competition, you must first show some strength that I can recognize. Otherwise, if you go and make a fool of yourselves, the people you’ll lose face for will still be from MO City!”
Yang Chen had thought that Feng Jindao would be able to pretend for a while longer, but he didn’t expect the other party’s true colors to show so quickly.
Zhou Haoran had long known Feng Jindao’s insincere intentions and snorted coldly, “City Lord Feng, whatever test you want to give our Zhou family, just say it. We’ll take it all.”
“Oh, Brother Zhou is truly straightforward.” Feng Jindao’s eyes flashed coldly. He was curious where Zhou Haoran’s confidence came from; the Zhou family’s number one genius, Zhou Yunxi, hadn’t recovered yet, so what was Zhou Haoran going to use to fight against him?
Then, he clapped his hands, “MO Xiaoyou, please come out!”
As soon as his words fell, a young man wearing a Taotu Sect Taoist robe came out with his hands behind his back.
The young man had no expression on his face and exuded an air of arrogance.
His gaze swept around, as if nothing was worth noting.
When Yang Chen saw this young man, he couldn’t help but smile.
The trump card Feng Jindao had invited turned out to be MO Shengyun, whom he had encountered a few days ago!
