Overriding the Heaven Chapter 3352: The Dilemma of the City Lord (Part 2)
Seeing that Chu Yan asked about this matter, the confidant of the lord of Gumei City pondered for a while, and then answered Chu Yan, saying, "Yes... just as you thought of Chu Yan, our Gumei City is not so much now. Comfortable."
"Even, the comfort and strength of the ancient plum city are all based on contrast."
After a pause, the confidant of the lord of Gumei City took a deep breath and said.
Chu Yan nodded, but did not speak.
He still understands this truth.
As the saying goes, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimps.
For Xiami, Xiaoyu is naturally scary enough.
But in the eyes of the little fish, the big fish is the most terrifying existence.
And on top of the big fish, there are natural enemies such as humans and monsters that cannot compete.
Therefore, the fact that the ancient Meicheng was so strong that slave traders like the Zhan family and the Chen family did not dare to provoke it did not mean that other forces did not dare to provoke it.
For example, the Ten Thousand Ghosts Sect!
Wan Guizong is fully qualified to provoke Gumei City.
Not only are they qualified, but they have already come and gone with each other, killing each other like hell!
What happened today has actually happened many times in the past, so it is not surprising.
"This matter is actually a long story... In the final analysis, our city lord was born from the grassroots, without the backing of a powerful family."
The confidant of the lord of Gumei City smiled wryly and said.
Hearing the words, Chu Yan thought of the fourth son.
The fourth son of the Zheng family.
I don't know the scale of the Zheng family in the fairy world, but it is not difficult to see that the other party intends to eat Dengxian Road, it should not be a small fish or shrimp.
This kind of family power is often inherited for a long time, and it is not easy to contend with it.
In contrast, if they want to do something, it is much simpler!
Obviously, the owner of the Ancient Plum City did not have such a background.
Even if he is not a casual cultivator, he should be grassroots and reckless. Anyway, he does not have a deep and powerful background.
"Exactly, the current situation of our ancient plum city is far from being as comfortable as imagined. After all, the fairyland has been reshuffled, there are grass everywhere, and the new imperial power is not stable. Our city lord can only be the face In fact, most of the families are still unconvinced."
"Hehe, that's right. If it's me, I've ruled the ancient Meicheng for many years, and someone suddenly surpasses me. I'm not happy if I change it."
"However, this position was won by our city lord, so what can they do if they are upset? It can't be done!"
The confidant of the lord of Ancient Plum City said triumphantly.
Chu Yan said thoughtfully, "Then about the Wanlun King..."
"Cough, cough, cough... Brother Chu Yan, don't worry, this is exactly what I'm going to say next!"
The confidant of the city lord of Ancient Plum City coughed a few times, and said: "Based on the above factors, and our city lord has defected halfway, so now the ancient Plum City is singing and dancing on the surface, and there are undercurrents surging inside."
"As for betraying the Wanlun King... there is a reason for this incident!"
The confidant of the city lord of Gumei City spoke for Chu Yan, saying: "The lord of the city is a man with great ambitions, and he followed Wanlun Wang just to plot a future, but Wanlun Wang... ...Hehe, you have also seen that Wanlun King is an extremely self-willed person. Although the city lord is working for Wanlun King, Wanlun King doesn't know what is to judge the situation. In the situation at that time, cooperation is actually the best. Falsely thinking that snakes can do it, but Wanlun Wang is too stubborn, if he persists, everyone will die!"
"The city lord doesn't want to die, and no one wants to die, and if something happened to the Wanlun king, then the people who were under the care of the Wanlun king must be implicated, so the city lord can only turn against him. For the sake of the overall situation... this is for the common people!"
The confidant of the lord of Gumei City said with a long sigh.
Of course, Chu Yan believed half of what he said, not all of it.
For example, for the common people in the world or something.
Chu Yan doesn't think that a completely kind person can be the lord of a city.
The city lord can be kind, but he can't be so kind, that's all.
"All in all, our ancient plum city is waiting to be rebuilt, Chu Yan, if you join, you will definitely have a lot to do!"
"Not to mention, Chu Yan, you have already made a lot of contributions. When I return to Gumei City, I will definitely ask for credit for you."
"As well as Chu Yan, if you have any difficulties, you can definitely tell the city lord that the city lord will definitely try his best to recruit talents like you!"
The confidant of the lord of Gumei City saw Chu Yan's extraordinaryness at a glance. He dared to say that in the future, Chu Yan would definitely have a place in the fairy world!
They are now recruiting Chu Yan to seize the opportunity, which is a great thing!
Chu Yan nodded slightly, tentatively agreeing.
It's not the first day he came out to make a living. He naturally knows that in the current situation in the fairy world, no matter what force he joins, there will be corresponding enemies. Anyway, it is impossible to have no enemies.
Since this is the case, in fact, Chu Yan can join any force that is not bad.
Moreover, Gumei City and him are really destined.
If it wasn't for the ancient Meicheng, Chu Yan might still be entangled with the Zhan family and the Chen family.
Although Chu Yan is not afraid of them, he is just a newcomer, and he doesn't want to show all his cards.
Therefore, it may be a good decision to join Gumei City.
Seeing Chu Yan nod his head, the confidants of the lord of Gumei City were also overjoyed.
After all, he is very optimistic about Chu Yan's potential.
In addition, he recommended Chu Yan to the city lord, which is a credit, and he can also gain Chu Yan's personal friendship!
This is very rare.
If one day, Chu Yan can become one of the most powerful people in the fairy world, then his friendship today will be valuable!
Of course, he was just thinking about it. How could it be so easy to be the most powerful person in the fairy world? Even the city lord may not have such a chance.
However, he is still very optimistic about Chu Yan's potential, thinking that Chu Yan really has a chance to rise, and it is not surprising that he will become a city lord in the future!
All in all, this kind of friendship does not require any capital, so why not do it.
Afterwards, everyone took a rest and continued their journey back to Ancient Plum City.
On the way, the old man and the others approached again and again, asking the cronies of the city lord of Gumei City, if there is anyone else in the city lord's mansion, they can join and serve the city lord sincerely.
In this regard, the confidantes of the city lord of Gumei City laughed and said nothing, neither said yes nor no.
The reason for this is because the strength of the old man and the others is really too weak.
Although it is in the Dao Fruit Realm, compared with Chu Yan, it is more than a little bit worse!
Although there is a shortage of people in the City Lord's Mansion of the Ancient Plum City, they still don't want anyone who comes.
