A majestic voice appeared in the conference room, and Xiao Han raised his eyebrows. He could immediately tell who the voice was. It was the one who appeared when the two Nascent Soul Stage Dzogchen were fighting.
One slap can knock out two Nascent Souls who are in the Nascent Soul stage and cannot escape. This is the strength of the city lord.
The majesty in the voice had some influence on Xiao Han, but Xiao Han, who was mentally resolute, did not do anything respectful.
After hearing the sound, Mr. Li quickly stepped down from his position, knelt down and said in the direction of the source of the sound: "Welcome the city lord."
City Lord? First confusion appeared on everyone's faces, then surprise, then fear. This series of changes appeared on the faces of all the monks.
When the city lord slapped two Nascent Soul stage Dzogchen monks to death, most of them had never seen it, but basically everyone had heard of it. Once such a big thing happened, it wouldn't take long for everyone to know about it.
Since they were in Wanzong City, they could naturally learn about this kind of thing very quickly.
The more I think about these people, the more frightened they feel. The city lord does not need any reason to kill people. This is absolute suppression by strength.
All the monks knelt on the ground and loudly said: "Welcome the Lord of the City."
Xiao Han frowned, feeling this inexplicable pressure. His whole body told him that as long as he knelt down, the pressure would disappear, but his will told him not to kneel.
After a stalemate for more than ten breaths, the pressure suddenly disappeared, and the majestic voice appeared again: "Control that nonsense first."
The deputy city lord didn't hesitate at all and grabbed Hu Yan in his hand. Hu Yan explained in a panic: "City Lord, please spare my life. I don't know what I have done."
"The questions raised today are only for the consideration of Wan Zong City. It is indeed a bit too much, but since my original intention is good, I hope the city lord will be merciful."
"I..." As he spoke, Hu Yan found that he could no longer speak. Soon the majestic voice spoke again: "It's really a little conspiracy. I thought I could hide it from the truth."
"Have you ever thought about the reason why your list passed smoothly this time?"
"Oh, I don't want to say too much. Han Xiao has no problem. Besides, this meeting is cancelled. The discussions at the meeting have been completed."
"Don't ask too much about the specific content of the meeting. Everyone will receive tasks from the City Lord's Mansion. They only need to complete the tasks at hand."
"Han Xiao, stay here for a moment, everyone else should leave!" After saying this, the monks left as fast as they were trying to grab a treasure, for fear that they would never be able to leave the conference hall again if they were a few steps late.
Xiao Han was terrified inside, but on the surface he was calm, just standing there quietly and waiting.
It turns out that this meeting was just a cover, and the real meeting was completed elsewhere. From this point of view, the City Lord's Mansion is not that simple.
Coupled with the subsequent actions of the city lord, it is very likely that he used himself to attract the attention of the demons. Not only can he attract some undercover demons, but he can also pull out the radish and bring out some of the mud.
While thinking about this, everyone in the conference room left, leaving only the deputy city lord and him.
The city lord said: "Li Hua, did you not hear my instructions clearly?"
Speaking of this, Mr. Li panicked and said, "Yes, yes...I was negligent. I'll leave right now." After saying that, he dodged and left the conference hall.
Xiao Han didn't even think about escaping from this place. A monk at the Nascent Soul stage could kill two people with one slap, let alone a monk at the Golden Core stage like him.
What's more, the city lord probably didn't want to embarrass him, otherwise he would have just taken action, so why bother to separate everyone and talk to him alone.
"Hey, before I say something, can I ask you a question?" The city lord's voice became less majestic and more gentle.
Xiao Han responded softly: "It depends on what question the Lord of the City is asking?"
"Hey, it's so direct, I like it." The city lord's voice was full of joy, and he quickly continued: "I have an impression of you. You were there when I beat the two Nascent Soul monks to death. Today
You're here too, and you didn't kneel down twice."
"I would like to ask why you don't kneel down. Is it because I'm not strong enough for you to kneel down? Or is it because you don't have the slightest respect for me."
Xiao Han frowned and asked, "Why do you have to kneel?" Then he raised his head and looked at the source of the sound and continued, "There seems to be no rule that you must kneel down when you see the city lord."
"Of course, if you ask me to kneel down now, then I can kneel down too." As he said this, Xiao Han began to kneel down. Before he could kneel down, a force appeared at his knees. Xiao Han couldn't kneel down no matter what.
.
He knew that this was the city lord casting a spell, and soon the city lord continued: "You don't have to kneel if you don't want to. Kneel down with your body, but you're standing in your heart. It's really good."
"Okay, now that we've finished chatting, let's get down to business." The city lord paused suddenly before speaking, and then continued: "What do you think, Xiao Han."
The moment the two words Xiao Han appeared, Xiao Han's pupils suddenly tightened.
My mind was frantically sifting through whether there was something wrong with me and why my name was leaked.
Xiao Qian never reported the relevant issues to him, so what exactly went wrong.
Just when Xiao Han was confused, a scroll suddenly appeared in the void. Xiao Han knew what the city lord meant and opened it directly. It was full of Xiao Han's information, including information from Liuyun Sect and the reason for his disappearance.
He even had a route from Liuyun Sect to Wanzong City. Only when he saw Xiao Han did he realize that no matter what he did under these behemoths, it would be meaningless.
In this case, there is nothing to hide, and then Xiao Han slowly said: "I wonder what the city lord's purpose is for saying these words? Why did he investigate me so clearly?"
"I don't think it's just to kill me, otherwise it wouldn't be so troublesome."
"Haha." After the city lord laughed a few times, he continued: "You guy, actually I am telling you this just to ask you if you are willing to join my city lord's mansion."
"Of course I'm not forcing you. You have your own choice, but before you make a choice, I think I need to tell you a little bit about the current situation."
"Leave aside your talent for now, just because you can refine the best elixirs, I think there are many people who are eyeing you!"
"If your information appears on my desk, it will appear on other people's desks. Joining the City Lord's Mansion may be your best choice."
"You can consider these things seriously, and don't rush to reply to me. I will give you enough time to think."
"As for me, in addition to providing you with protection, I can also give you the identity of the deputy city lord of Wanzong City. I also have a lot of resources for you to practice, and I even have fifth-level elixirs for you to practice."
