In the Lord's Mansion of Mingyuan City, Taoist Mingyuan had just come out of seclusion when he received a report from one of his subordinates.
"City Lord, two powerful men have arrived in the city, both of them have cultivation levels in the late stages of the Fusion Dao Realm."
The subordinate bowed and reported.
In Mingyuan City, the lord of Mingyuan City is Tian, who is the absolute overlord.
He had ordered that any monks who entered the city at the Fusion Dao realm or above must be reported.
"Oh, late stage of Fusion Dao Realm?" Mingyuan couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this, and immediately asked, "Who are they and where are they now?"
The subordinate did not dare to hide anything, and quickly told Mingyuan Taoist Master Wang Fan the location of the two, as well as the guess that the two were casual cultivators.
Wang Fan and his wife did not hide the purchase of the courtyard at all, so it was not a secret.
"It's interesting that two casual cultivators at the late stage of Fusion Dao Realm came to Mingyuan City. If they can be recruited, it would be a big help."
Lord Mingyuan thought so.
He didn't connect these two people to Xuan Yi at all.
After all, Xuan Yi is able to kill people in the early stage of the Hedao Realm across borders, and he is an absolute monster and strongman.
It is impossible for a person like that to come to a small place like Mingyuan City.
It is even more impossible to challenge him as the city lord.
After all, he is not considered a genius at all. Although his realm is also at the early stage of the Hedao realm, compared with Batu and others, he is far behind.
Of course, this is because the Lord of Mingyuan City did not receive the order from the Divine Lord of the Nine Gods Sect, and did not know that the Divine Lord was sending people to search for Xuanyi and Xuanyin Master.
Otherwise, he will definitely become suspicious.
But it was obvious that his level was not high enough and he had not received any orders from the Lord of the Nine Gods Sect.
In the courtyard.
Wang Fan sat cross-legged under a big tree and started practicing.
However, he just opened his eyes after practicing for a while.
I saw a figure appearing outside the courtyard.
"Early stage of Hedao realm?"
Wang Fan's heart skipped a beat.
No way, he has just entered Mingyuan City and settled down, and the strong men from the Nine Gods Sect have arrived?
Is he so powerful?
However, Wang Fan soon shook his head.
It doesn't quite look like it.
A statue who is in the early stage of the Hedao realm, and whose aura is not as good as that of Batu, shouldn't be here to deal with him.
Thinking of this, Wang Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
He quickly stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I wonder if you have any advice, senior?"
Wang Fan seemed somewhat respectful.
Even if he is much stronger than the guy in front of me.
Mingyuan Taoist Master glanced at Wang Fan, nodded with satisfaction, and said, "Fellow Taoist, there is no need to be polite. I just heard that a strong man came to our Mingyuan City, so I came here to have a look."
When Wang Fan heard this, he immediately knew the identity of the visitor.
The city lord of Mingyuan City, Taoist Mingyuan.
He hurriedly said, "Taoist Mingyuan is joking. How can I dare to call myself a strong person with my meager cultivation? Junior Bai Fan has met Taoist Mingyuan. Please come in."
Mingyuan nodded, then walked in and sat opposite Wang Fan.
There was a smile on his face, but he had no trace of the demeanor or majesty of a strong senior.
After sitting down, he looked at Wang Fan and asked, "fellow Taoist Bai Fan, right? I wonder where fellow Taoist Bai Fan comes from? Are you buying a courtyard in Mingyuan City because you want to live in seclusion?"
While speaking, he was also examining Wang Fan.
Wang Fan smiled bitterly when he heard this, "Senior, I'm just laughing at you, I'm just a casual cultivator."
"It's just that I've been trapped in the late stage of the Fusion Dao Realm for a long time and haven't been able to break through, so I decided to hide from the world for a while to see if I could find an opportunity."
There are many such monks in Daoyu City, so Wang Fan naturally comes without hesitation and is not afraid of arousing suspicion.
Mingyuan nodded.
He is also a weather-beaten person, so he naturally has a good way of judging people.
With just one look at a person like Wang Fan, he already knew that he was definitely not a core figure from a big force.
Because all the core figures from big forces have some arrogance in their hearts.
The core of a big force in the late Fusion Dao Realm would never assume such a posture even when faced with someone like him who is in the early stage of the Harmonious Dao Realm.
The pride and temperament that comes from the bottom of one's heart cannot be concealed at all.
Mingyuan smiled and asked, "Fellow Taoist, would you like to join my City Lord's Mansion?"
"Don't worry, I won't ask for much from you. You just need to help me, the City Lord's Mansion, when necessary."
Mingyuan is very direct, without any sloppiness.
After he knew that Wang Fan was just a casual cultivator and had no background, he directly stated his purpose.
There is nothing to hide about this kind of thing, and there is no need to hide it.
If he beats around the bush, it would be bad if it arouses Wang Fan's resentment.
When Wang Fan heard this, he couldn't help but be slightly startled.
Is this guy here to recruit me to join the City Lord's Mansion?
Normally, Wang Fan would definitely not agree.
He really doesn't like a small place like Mingyuan City Lord's Mansion. Even if he joins, he won't get much benefit.
But now, the situation is different.
If he joins the City Lord's Mansion, his safety will be guaranteed.
Unless the top experts from the Nine God Sect came in person and saw through his disguise at once, there would be no suspicion at all.
Wang Fan quickly made a decision in his heart, but did not agree immediately.
If you agree too readily, you might arouse Ming Yuan's suspicion.
Wang Fan looked thoughtful, and after a moment he said, "Senior, can I allow this junior to think about it?"
"The junior Taoist monk has something to go out now. How about we discuss it when she comes back?"
Mingyuan was not surprised by this and nodded, "Of course it's okay. When you decide, just go to the City Lord's Mansion."
"In this case, I won't disturb fellow Taoist practitioners, and I'll take my leave."
As soon as the voice fell, Ming Yuan had already stood up and walked outside.
From beginning to end, he had a smile on his face and seemed very polite.
"Senior, walk slowly." Wang Fan hurriedly saw him off.
An hour later, Mingyu returned.
Wang Fan told Mingyu about the matter. After hearing this, Mingyu said, "Master, I will listen to you in everything."
Wang Fan was speechless and asked, "Did you find out any news outside? Nothing major happened, right?"
Mingyu shook his head, "No, no."
As for the arrival of the Lord of the Nine Gods Sect in Xuanyin City, it has not yet reached Mingyuan City, so Mingyu did not find out about it.
In fact, even those in Xuanyin City had no idea that the powerful man who had descended was the God Master of the Nine Gods Sect.
Therefore, the news naturally cannot reach Mingyuan City.
Wang Fan breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this.
That's good.
He was really afraid of hearing the news that Xuanyin City was destroyed, it would be too shocking.
at the same moment.
In a void.
The Bone Fairy was sitting cross-legged, muttering something.
"One, two, three, eight..."
At a certain moment, she opened her eyes and stood up suddenly. "The eight deities have reached the perfect state of harmony, which is very good. It is worthy of my action."
