Xu Ming never felt excited even when he met a saint, or even when he met the Heavenly Sacrifice Star Lord; but at this moment, just to see the quasi-sage, the Holy Emperor City Lord, his heart was beating wildly.
"The Lord of the City wants to see me, does this imply something?"
With excitement, Xu Ming soon met the Holy Emperor City Lord in the study room of the City Lord's Mansion.
"Lord City Lord!" Xu Ming said respectfully, cupping his fists.
After actually seeing the Lord of the Holy Emperor City, Xu Ming's mood calmed down again.
Once upon a time, in the Endless Continent, when Xu Ming saw the energy incarnation of the Holy Emperor City Lord for the first time... the Holy Emperor City Lord at that time, in Xu Ming's eyes, was vaster, deeper and unattainable than the sky.
Now, he was officially face to face with the Lord of the Holy Emperor City; in Xu Ming's eyes, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City was not such an incredible existence.
"Xu Ming..." The Saint Emperor City Lord looked at Xu Ming unscrupulously. After a long time, he said, "You surprised me... I am really surprised!"
Xu Ming said nothing and waited quietly for the next words from the Lord of the Holy Emperor City.
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City continued: "In just a few hundred years, you have come to the divine realm from the world of dust; from a humble and weak Taoist master, you have the combat power of half a step to dominate the level... The achievements you have made are unimaginable.
It’s no exaggeration to describe it!”
Xu Ming said humbly: "Thank you City Lord for the compliment!"
When facing your future father-in-law, it’s better to be humble.
"I'm not praising you, I'm just telling the truth!" the Lord of the Holy Emperor City said calmly, "Xu Ming, you should have entered the Chaos Secret Realm, right?"
"Secret Realm of Chaos?" Xu Ming has obviously never heard of what the Secret Realm of Chaos is; after all, he has never encountered it.
"It's the speed of time that's different from that in the Divine Realm!" said the Lord of the Holy Emperor City, "Thousands of years have passed in it, but only one day has passed in the Divine Realm!"
Xu Ming said truthfully: "I have never entered..."
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City couldn't help showing some displeasure: "Don't pretend to be anything in front of me! I have eaten more salt than you have eaten rice. Have you ever entered the Chaotic Secret Realm? Do I still judge you?"
Not coming out?"
"Uh..." Xu Ming was speechless and thought to himself - I really have never entered the Chaotic Secret Realm! Have you judged it?
However, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City is his future father-in-law after all; even if he is showing off now, Xu Ming must watch him finish pretending and not interrupt him in the middle. Otherwise... his future father-in-law will become angry.
, that would be bad.
Seeing that Xu Ming was silent, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City thought that he had discovered the truth, so he was speechless.
Therefore, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City said with more certainty: "In just a hundred years, you have transformed from a Taoist master to a half-step master of combat power. How is this possible? - You have entered the secret realm of chaos. This is the only explanation for you!"
Xu Ming couldn't refute, so what else could he say? He could only say silently in his heart - yes, yes, yes! Everything you said is right! Your farts are all delicious! Who made you my future father-in-law?
"It is indeed a very strange opportunity to have entered the Chaos Secret Realm! After all, in the entire God's Domain, it is rare for hundreds of millions of years for a Chaos Secret Realm to appear; moreover, the Chaos Secret Realm has only existed for a very short time, and it is very likely that it has not been discovered by anyone.
Disappeared quietly! But..." At this point, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City suddenly changed the topic, "However, although such an encounter is strange and rare, in my opinion, it is not a big deal!"
"Huh?" Xu Ming couldn't help but be startled, and a bad feeling arose in his heart.
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City continued: "The Divine Realm is vast and infinite! You may have never even heard of the truly great miracles and great opportunities, let alone encountered them!"
"Lord of the Holy Emperor City?" Xu Ming's expression was slightly ugly; of course he could hear the unkindness in the Lord of the Holy Emperor City's words.
However, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City did not seem to see Xu Ming's face, and continued: "Xu Ming, it is indeed not easy for you to come to the Holy Emperor City from the world of dust! Although some words are unpleasant, I am afraid I have to say them!"
"Please speak!" Xu Ming suppressed his anger.
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City looked indifferent and calm, and said: "Xu Ming, the opportunities you have received have indeed made you get rid of the identity of an ant! However, this does not mean that you are worthy of Xiao Ran; if you want to be worthy,
Getting into Xiaoran requires not only strength, but also talent and background... I'm telling you this, do you understand what I mean?"
"Ha!" Xu Ming laughed, "You are saying that I am not worthy of Xiao Yin, right?"
Xu Ming used to call Yin Ran "Xiao Yin".
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City did not answer this question, but said: "I will give you a piece of advice: quit asking for a bride!"
"Quiting the marriage proposal?" Xu Ming looked at him in disbelief.
You know, Xu Ming went through all kinds of hardships and came to the Holy Emperor City from the Endless Continent just to participate in this marriage recruitment; and now, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City actually told him to quit the marriage recruitment with a light word!
How is that possible!!
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City said again: "Actually, the reason why I asked you to withdraw from the marriage recruitment is entirely for your own good! - Li Xiujie has now obtained the second inheritance in the family, and his strength has skyrocketed; during the process of the marriage recruitment assessment, he will definitely
I will try my best to kill you!"
Li Xiujie?
Xu Ming couldn't help but laugh.
To be honest, Xu Ming has never regarded Li Xiujie as his opponent!
"Lord of the Holy Emperor City!" Xu Ming's aura suddenly became fierce, "I just want to ask - is this recruitment fair?"
"Of course it's fair!" the Holy Emperor City Lord said without hesitation.
"Fair... that's good!" Xu Ming said, "If I show an absolute advantage in recruiting a bride! Then in the end, will you choose me?"
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City sneered and said: "It seems that you still refuse to listen to my advice and insist on participating in the marriage recruitment! - Hehe, if you can really gain an absolute advantage in the marriage recruitment, then what do I have?
Why not choose you?"
"Okay!" Xu Ming turned around and left, "Lord of the Holy Emperor City, I hope you will remember what you said!"
Strength, talent, background! And the final betrothal gift! No matter what, Xu Ming will definitely try his best to show a crushing advantage in every step of recruiting a bride!
Xu Ming wants to let the future father-in-law, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City, know how blind he is!!
"Just wait!"
Xu Ming doesn't want to say anything with his mouth, he just wants to speak with his strength!
…
The study room of the City Lord's Mansion.
The Lord of the Holy Emperor City looked at Xu Ming's back as he left in a menacing manner, and couldn't help but shake his head and laugh: "He is a young man after all! He is still too naive! - How did he know that the person Xiao Ran married must have great talent?
A genius with a big background! What kind of background can a kid who came from the world of dust have?"
Smiling, the Lord of the Holy Emperor City finally sighed: "Now it seems that the Li family and the Yehenala family are the ones that are most in line with my wishes!"
