"So, you agreed to this condition, and Shengsheng used himself as a bargaining chip and put it on the table between the two of them?"

Lu Xin looked at her stubborn daughter and couldn't help but feel distressed.

"Why are you doing this?"

Shen Qingming said: "I was indeed a little unhappy when I thought about it at first, but I didn't feel bitter when I thought about it." I'm an insignificant little guy who can stand on the table of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword and the Golden Jade City Lord, what else is there not to be satisfied with? Although he was used as a bargaining chip, Ah Jiu never regarded himself as a person, maybe he was not regarded as a person, but he looked down on him. ”

Lu Xin said: "You are the daughter of the Li family, you are definitely not an insignificant little guy, and you are qualified to be compared with anyone." ”

When Shen Qingming heard this, she suddenly showed a very uncomfortable expression, she looked at Lu Xin: "This is ...... Do you believe it yourself? ”

Lu Xin said seriously: "Of course, I have always been convinced of your potential. ”

"Then you kicked me out of the inner door back then and sent me to Shen Yuan!?"

"Dang, after all, it was just ...... at that time" Lu Xin was a little red-faced, "That's also for your good!" It is because I believe in your potential that I think you can bounce back under pressure! And if you don't go to Shen Yuan, can you know Mr. Wang Jiu! ”

"Is that your credit! And the IQ result of the test that Wang Jiu gave me was 3.3! ”

"You're still young, your body is still developing, and your intelligence index will also grow!"

Shen Qingming's expression was even more sad: "Seriously, being comforted by such self-explanatory nonsense feels more sad than being insulted." ”

Lu Xin was stunned when he heard this: "Are you like this too?" ”

At this moment, the eldest lady of the Qingyun Lu family couldn't help but think of her girlhood.

At that time, because of her limited cultivation qualifications, her progress could not reach the standard value of the Lu family, and her whole mental condition was very depressed. Especially when everyone around her is encouraging her with nonsense that the mentally retarded don't believe, the depression is even heavier.

Like what......

"Xin'er, it's not that you have poor qualifications, it's just that your cultivation qualifications belong to the late formation of the big instrument, and the early stage is relatively slow!"

"Late bloomer? How late is it? ”

"Within ten years, you will become a cloud-turning realm!"

"Ten years from now, I'll be 30 years old! What is the difference between a 30-year-old Cloud Turning Realm and a disabled person! ”

"Don't look down on the 30-year-old Cloud Turning Realm! Do you know the average broken mirror age of the Cloud Turning Realm monks in Xiangzhou? ”

"Compared with the average of my dignified Lu family and Xiangzhou, are you looking down on me!? And what is the average value of Sangshu, you say? ”

“3…… No, 75 years old! ”

"Nonsense! I just read the Xiangzhou Immortal Cultivation Guide released by the Holy Sect, and the average is 36 years old! This still includes a lot of data on casual cultivation without the guidance of famous teachers and lack of medical treatment! ”

"That kind of guide is all published by the Holy Sect to whitewash the peace, and you can also trust the official data? The data of the Holy Sect is the most untrustworthy, those people have ruled Xiangzhou for two thousand years, what can't they do? ”

"You even blacken the Holy Sect in order to comfort me?!"

"In short, you are just a late bloomer, the more you have this qualification, the faster you will cultivate, as long as you are patient, you will definitely become a great cultivator worthy of the Lu family in the future."

“…… Do you think I'll believe this nonsense? ”

"Sometimes, believing in nonsense can make your life a little easier."

——

Thinking of her girlhood, Lu Xin couldn't help but be leisurely, and then looked at Shen Qingming, who had a stubborn face, and it was really difficult to persuade anything.

"Now that you've chosen your own path, let's move forward."

"Hmph, of course." Shen Qingming snorted and said softly, "Thinking of your story, I have no reason to give up halfway." ”

"What?"

"Nothing! And when are you going back to Qingyun City? Li Jinglun's complaint letters urging you to go back, I have piled up here! ”

"That guy doesn't work honestly, and he dares to fish and write you a complaint letter?!" Lu Xin was furious, "It seems that the courage on his shoulders is not heavy enough, in this case, the speech of Fengyun's executive meeting next week has also been written by him!" ”

——

On the other side, in the Golden Jade City City Lord's Mansion, Zhao Shenlu finally completely cleared up the finishing work in the Golden Jade City.

The woman handed over thirty well-recorded runes and a jade seal to Zhao Jincheng, who was trembling.

As the new city lord who took office in a hurry, Zhao Jincheng still feels dreamlike and unbelievable about the change in the state of affairs.

Zhao Jincheng has never had the luxury of really sitting on the throne of the city lord, although during the reign of Zhao Shenlu, everyone called him the eldest prince and regarded him as the successor, but objectively speaking, with Zhao Shenlu's dominating temperament, as long as she is alive, it is impossible to hand over power to others, and Zhao Jincheng of course cannot live longer than Zhao Shenlu - he and Zhao Shenlu are only sisters and brothers, not mothers and daughters, the age gap is less than ten years, and from the perspective of the qualifications of both parties to cultivate immortals, Zhao Shenlu is the top of Xiangzhou, In another ten or twenty years, it is very likely that he will surpass the Holy Sect Master and become the first person outside the Holy Sect who has never been seen before, and his lifespan should be more than 400 years, not to mention 500 years. Zhao Jincheng has reached the peak of the Paishan Realm at most, and it is unlikely that he will cross the threshold of the Inverted Sea Realm, and it will be difficult for Shouyuan to exceed 250 years. With this lifespan gap, in the end, it was Zhao Shenlu who "sent white-haired people to black-haired people", and it was impossible for Zhao Jincheng to inherit the mantle.

But now, the throne of the lord of the city has beckoned to him.

Zhao Shenlu didn't care about the change in Zhao Jincheng's mind at all, and said with a smile.

"Alright, Jincheng, and then the city will be handed over to you."

Zhao Jincheng only felt that the jade seal in his hand was like the weight of a mountain, and asked, "What is this?" ”

"The city lord seal of the Zhao family has been passed down from generation to generation." Zhao Shenlu said, "The documents issued by the city lord need to be stamped. ”

"But, I've never seen you use it."

Zhao Shenlu said: "Because I really haven't used it, it's too ugly, so I've always used my own private seal." Sometimes it's too troublesome or you forget to carry it with you, so you simply don't cover it. ”

"This is okay too!?"

Zhao Shen Luqi said: "Why not? ”

"Yes, that's right, after all, it's your sister, you're ......" Thinking of the great achievements that Zhao Shenlu has made over the years, it's really not worth mentioning to change the seal.

"And what are these sigils?" Zhao Jincheng asked again.

"Over the years, the Holy Father has sent documents asking for study."

“…… What!? Zhao Jincheng was taken aback, and hurriedly opened the rune, only to see that the letters sent by the Holy Sect were piled up, which was dazzling.

"Why are there so many!?"

Zhao Shenlu shrugged: "Those people like Wenshan and Huihai when they have nothing to do, what is there to make a fuss about." ”

"But ......" Zhao Jincheng opened a few letters and looked at them carefully, and suddenly his eyes went dark.

"Lord Zhao, the self-inspection report on your illegal picking of rare medicinal materials in the nature reserve has been postponed for one week, please submit it as soon as possible. 》

"City Lord Zhao, the self-inspection report has been postponed for one month, please submit it as soon as possible!" 》

"Lord Zhao, the self-inspection report has been drafted for you, please sign"

"City Lord Zhao, the word has been signed for you, please be sure not to repeat it next time." 》

"City Lord Zhao, the self-inspection report on your illegal picking of rare medicinal materials again has been postponed for one month, please submit it as soon as possible"

"City Lord Zhao, according to the Immortal Cultivator Convention jointly signed by the Holy Sect and the Seven Families of the Three Academies, the Great Immortal Cultivator who is the City Lord should regularly cooperate with the Holy Sect's plan and lead a team to explore the Flood Desolation Ruins. The operation date of the Golden Jade City Exploration Team is tentatively scheduled for next month, please arrive on time》

"City Lord Zhao, because of your tardiness, the exploration team has been stranded in Liantian City for a week, please arrive as soon as possible!" 》

"City Lord Zhao, the sick note has been prepared for you, please sign it as soon as possible!" 》

"City Lord Zhao, according to the regulations, the exploration team is absent from work once, and it needs to be made up within 3 years, please give the action time as soon as possible......

Looking at the mountain of official letters, Zhao Jincheng only felt as if he had seen the blood and tears of the Holy Sect's counterpart on the other side.

Zhao Shenlu saw that Zhao Jincheng's face was different, so he asked: "How is it, do you think they have nothing to do and are annoyed to death?" ”

"Yes, yes......" Zhao Jincheng said as he thought that the blood debts that this sister had accumulated in the past twenty years would probably have to be repaid twice when she took office......

But even so, Zhao Jincheng has no regrets.

Because, only by sitting on this throne, can he be truly reborn.

From the eldest prince who was protected by his wings, he transformed into the lord of Jinyu City, and since then he has been friends with the world's heroes.

And the first thing he wants to make friends with is the Qingyun Li family!

The reason, of course, is not for personal reasons, but for the public good.

As one of the seven great families, the Li family has gradually declined in the past few years, and is called the end of the seven great families by many people, but in fact, this is obviously an underestimate. Not to mention that the long heritage of the family should not be underestimated, just the talents and potential shown by Li Fengyun, Li Wanqing, and Shen Qingming in recent years are destined to usher in a wave of take-off soon, and now they have Mr. Wang Jiu to help, and at the same time they have eased the relationship with Shen Cheng, which is really limitless.

And taking advantage of the early establishment of a good relationship with the Li family, it will also be of great benefit to him to take charge of Jinyu City in the future, he is far from Zhao Shenlu's means and courage to dominate the world, if you want to sit on the throne of the city lord, it is not enough to rely on yourself, you must get external support, and the Li family is an excellent choice.

Therefore, taking advantage of the fact that the real speaker of the Li family happened to visit Jinyu City, it was only natural and reasonable to invite her to the City Lord's Mansion for dinner as the city lord!

Thinking of this, Zhao Jincheng felt that the jade seal and rune seal in his hand were no longer heavy, but turned into a motivation to motivate himself to keep moving forward.

As Zhao Shenlu's younger brother and the current city lord of Jinyu City, he must not be afraid of difficulties, in this world, there is nothing he can't do!
