This was the Divine Eagle City Lord's reply.
"I think we should forget about it." Lü Fengxian smiled slightly. "Let's do it this way.
City Lord Lü, small bets are fun, but large bets are harmful. We are all friends; there is no need to make such a big bet. Furthermore, I can guarantee that no one will dare to go against the Lan Clan. The Lan Clan is a great family clan of our Divine Eagle City; I will naturally protect them. No matter who wins or loses, take the three million yuan as a gift from the other party, "the Divine Eagle City Lord said.
The Divine Eagle City Lord kept talking about the other party, but everyone understood.
He was the one who had taken out the three million yuan.
Furthermore, he had already agreed to cooperate with the Immemorial Sect. He had allowed Xiatian to fight with those people mainly to test out Xiatian's strength.
After all, with someone like Lü Fengxian in his Chuan District, he had to be more careful.
He was the City Lord of a C-grade city.
There were many things that he had to consider.
This included the Lü Clan's attitude and the reactions of the other powers.
C-grade cities were different from other cities. Although they were also under the control of the Lü Clan, they had more initiative because they were recognized by the Tianyuan Empire.
As for cities below C-grade, they were under the control of the Lü Clan and had no initiative at all. If the Lü Clan wanted them dead, they had to die.
However, at the same time …
They were also under the control of the Lü Clan.
Although they had a certain level of initiative, if they did not find out what the Lü Clan was up to, they could very well face a calamity.
"Alright." Lü Fengxian smiled slightly.
Whew!
The Divine Eagle City Lord secretly heaved a sigh of relief.
Lü Fengxian had given him a way out. However, he also understood that Lü Fengxian had said all that to tell him that if he forced Lü Fengxian into a corner, he would definitely be able to do something like that one hundred million yuan.
However, the Divine Eagle City Lord had to confirm Xiatian's strength.
After all, a person like Lü Fengxian was like a heavy bomb in his territory. If he didn't control it well, it was very likely that he would be blown up as well.
If he deliberately made things difficult for Lü Fengxian, then what if the Lü Family did this on purpose to test him? Then he would be in trouble. But if he went to befriend Lü Fengxian, then once the Lü Family had an internal strife, then he would definitely be thought by the Lü Family to be in cahoots with Lü Fengxian. When the time comes, he would also be attacked by the Lü Family.
He was the City Lord of a C-class city.
What he wanted was very simple.
That was stable development.
He didn't have much ambition.
Therefore, he didn't want to be involved in any factional struggles.
"Then let's set it for three days later," the Divine Eagle City's City Lord said.
"Okay, three days later." Lü Fengxian nodded.
Three days later.
Xiatian fought one of the Sixteen Palaces, the Immemorial Palace's experts.
One had to know that the most famous factions in the Lianyun Mountains were the Three Sects and Three Factions, followed by the Twelve Palaces. The Twelve Palaces were even more famous than the Seventy-two Caves. In the Seventy-two Caves, the Cave Masters were already at the seventh level of the Essence Realm. What about the higher-level Twelve Palaces? Their strength was naturally extremely terrifying.
Since the Divine Eagle City's City Lord was able to ask for help, his strength was naturally not weak.
Next, it was time to hand over the taxes and the envoys sent by the Divine Eagle City to the various F-class cities. These envoys were all sent to investigate the taxes and thus required the reception and cooperation of the various City Lords. This was something that had to be done every time the taxes were paid, so everyone was already used to it.
However, Lü Fengxian didn't arrange for anyone to go to Luoshi City.
There were basically two reasons for this.
Firstly, Luoshi City belonged to Lü Fengxian, and Lü Fengxian's surname was Lü. Thus, he wouldn't knowingly break the law. Even if Lü Fengxian was up to something, he wouldn't dare to say anything.
Secondly, Luoshi City was still developing. If he didn't report the taxes, it would only affect Luoshi City's development.
Thirdly, he had to give face to Lü Fengxian. Even though he didn't support Lü Fengxian, he definitely couldn't offend Lü Fengxian.
This was his way of being an official.
The people here kept asking about his well-being. Lü Fengxian was obviously a veteran in such situations. After he handed the money over to Xiatian, he continued to exchange pleasantries with the people around him.
"Brother Xia, come here for a moment." Lü Fengxian waved at Xiatian.
Xiatian picked up the wine beside him and walked directly towards Lü Fengxian.
"What's the matter?" Xiatian asked.
"Brother Xia, this is City Lord Huo. You should know him, right?" Lü Fengxian asked.
"Yes," Xiatian said.
"City Lord Huo wants to form a marriage alliance with our Luoshi City. What do you think?" Lü Fengxian looked at Xiatian and asked.
"Whatever," Xiatian said.
"This can't be casual. She wants to form a marriage alliance with you." Lü Fengxian looked at Xiatian and said.
"Uh!!" Xiatian was stunned. When Lü Fengxian spoke just now, he didn't care. He didn't think about himself at all. But now that he heard Lü Fengxian's words, he was a little confused. Huo Sisi had just met him, but she actually said that she wanted to form a marriage alliance with him, which meant that she wanted to marry him. This was a little too unbelievable. Moreover, Lü Fengxian actually came to ask for his opinion.
Normally, Lü Fengxian would have directly rejected such a thing for him.
Now, he actually came to ask him.
"City Lord Huo is very sincere and beautiful. I think she's a good candidate." Lü Fengxian nodded at Xiatian.
"Okay!!" Xiatian replied directly.
It wasn't the first day he and Lü Fengxian knew each other. The two of them had a tacit understanding. Whatever one of them said, the other would react immediately. It was the same at this moment. Lü Fengxian's attitude and words were telling Xiatian to agree, so Xiatian would naturally agree.
He understood that Lü Fengxian would definitely not cheat him. Moreover, Lü Fengxian also knew that he had a family to find his wife and parents.
"Alright, it's settled then. Everyone, let me announce that our Luoshi City's Xia Jialan will form a marriage alliance with Huo City's City Lord Huo Sisi," Lü Fengxian shouted loudly.
When the surrounding people heard this, they all came forward.
Even the Divine Eagle City's City Lord walked over.
"Congratulations to City Lord Huo and Xia Jialan."
"Many thanks!!" Xiatian cupped his hands.
Huo Sisi also walked directly to Xiatian's side and held Xiatian's arm. She stood beside Xiatian and looked like a virtuous wife.
It had to be said that Huo Sisi wasn't the very beautiful type, but she was considered a beauty among ordinary women. She was just slightly inferior to Lin Bingbing and Yun Miao. However, she had a unique charm that the other women didn't have.
"Let me inform everyone here first. I plan to marry Xia Jialan and City Lord Huo in three months," Lü Fengxian said.
Xiatian actually didn't care about this now. What he cared about was that he needed to make a trip to the Magic Divine Tower later to buy the Purple Yuan Elixir and break through to the eighth level of the origin grade!!
