On the second day, everything in the Mayor's Mansion had returned to normal, as if nothing had happened.
However, after Manager Chen's coercion, he understood that the Mayor was angry. If he continued to persist, he would not be able to bear the consequences. All the kindness he had shown in the past would vanish into thin air.
In an instant, many people began to lay low. Many people who were prepared to curry favor with Manager Chen began to divide their ranks, afraid that they would be unlucky.
In the past, Manager Chen had abused his power in the Mayor's Mansion, and the Mayor had laughed it off. However, this time, he actually instigated the Mayor's men to force the Mayor to make a decision. The significance of this action was different. It was not as simple as going overboard. There was no sense of propriety.
Ever since then, Manager Chen had locked himself in his room.
Manager Chen was indeed unwilling last night. However, after seeing the Mayor's anger, he did not dare to push further and could only retreat.
Before they completely shed all pretense of cordiality, everything could still be discussed. However, once they went overboard, it would be a different story.
Xiao Yang was not clear about what had happened in the Mayor's Mansion, and he did not need to care about it.
The internal affairs of the Mayor's Mansion had nothing to do with Xiao Yang. He only needed to achieve his goal. Moreover, his conditions were just that. If this business deal could be done, then it would be done. If it could not be done, then it would be over.
On the second day, there was no news. Xiao Yang and Xiao Man sat in the courtyard for the entire day, and did not go out.
On the third day, Xing Tian could not sit still any longer and asked: "Tomorrow, we will head directly to the central region?"
From Xing Tian's point of view, there was no news from the Mayor's side. He was afraid that this business deal could not be done.
Xiao Yang nodded and said: "If it is not possible, then we will go to the central region to take a look before making any plans."
To them, entering the Secret Realm of Daylight was something that must be done. Delaying here for three days was already their limit.
Of course, keeping one's word was also the most basic. If they continued to stay, NanGong Yu would probably continue to demand more.
As for the bottle of pills, it was a reward for staying in Nangong City for the past few days.
Xing Tian shook his head. At the same time, he did not understand why Xiao Yang was so insistent.
Such an astute person would not use such a trick. Moreover, most of his words had no proof, so how could NanGong Yu believe him so easily?
It could even be said that this was a gamble. A gamble on whether NanGong Yu would take the risk.
But NanGong Yu had lived for so long, how could she easily trust an outsider? What's more, they didn't understand each other at all.
However, Xing Tian wasn't in a hurry. After all, the time limit wasn't up yet. He just had to continue waiting.
Perhaps Xiao Yang would really make the right bet, which would save him a lot of trouble.
Under normal circumstances, Xing Tian would naturally choose to barge in. He wouldn't care about the consequences.
It was not his style to be overly cautious and overcautious. Moreover, Xing Tian had the right to be arrogant. So what if he offended the Bright Curse Realm?
However, Xiao Yang was different. Unless he had no other choice, he wouldn't do such a thing.
At noon, NanGong Yu arrived.
"Strange, she really came." Xing Tian muttered in his heart. He felt that this matter was very strange.
Of course, he wasn't sure why NanGong Yu came this time.
"Brother Xiao, are you satisfied with staying in the mansion these few days? Did you neglect anything?" NanGong Yu cupped her fists and smiled.
Xiao Yang cupped his fists and returned the greeting, saying, "Not bad."
The word 'acceptable' caused NanGong Yu to laugh awkwardly. She was clear that Manager Chen had always been the one to cover the sky with one hand in this residence. Many people wanted to curry favor with him, so naturally, it was impossible for him to give the three of them any face.
"City Lord, what do you think? If you can give an answer now, it's not bad. We don't have to waste time. "Xiao Yang smiled.
At this time, if NanGong Yu still didn't make a decision, then there was no room for discussion.
NanGong Yu didn't think that this young man would be so straightforward. She smiled and nodded, saying, "I wonder how confident Brother Xiao is?"
This time, NanGong Yu's arrival wasn't sudden at all. This was because he had distributed the pills the day before yesterday.
In just two days, a disciple who had been stuck at the peak of King Wu's cultivation level for a long time had successfully broken through!
There was also a junior at the beginning stage of the Ninth Level who had similarly reached a higher level.
This proved that the pills given by Xiao Yang were indeed extraordinary.
It wasn't an exaggeration to call a pill that could make a Martial Emperor a miracle pill.
Furthermore, since Xiao Yang was able to refine such a miraculous pill, he might really have a way to cure the poison.
The Heart Devouring Cicada had caused NanGong Yu to suffer for decades. He naturally wanted to get rid of it as soon as possible. Therefore, when he received the news, he immediately rushed over.
"One hundred percent!" Xiao Yang said resolutely.
Even though the Heart Devouring Cicada was ferocious, it couldn't do much to Xiao Yang. It was easy to lure him out.
Hearing this, NanGong Yu frowned a little.
"As long as City Lord Nangong cooperates, eliminating a mere Heart-Devouring Cicada is a piece of cake." Xiao Yang smilingly said.
Now that NanGong Yu was in trouble again, even the godly doctor of the Bright Curse Boundary couldn't do anything about it. How could this young man be so confident?
Therefore, NanGong Yu couldn't help but wonder if Xiao Yang was telling the truth.
If she made one wrong move, she would be doomed eternally.
Until now, NanGong Yu was still in a dilemma.
"Of course, this is a huge gamble to begin with. What we are betting on is my, Xiao Yang's, character and your, City Lord Nangong's, courage. "Xiao Yang smiled.
Then, Xiao Yang sat down and didn't say anything more.
There was no point in saying anything more. It might even make NanGong Yu more suspicious and think that he had ulterior motives.
"Brother Xiao is right." NanGong Yu said lightly, but the pressure in her heart was immense.
Now that the choice was in front of her, it seemed that if she made the wrong choice, she would end up in a miserable state.
It could be said that the probability of success was only one in four.
As for how to make this one in all, that was a problem.
Seeing that the young man still didn't care, NanGong Yu shook her head helplessly and smiled bitterly.
Now, the problem seemed to be completely on his side, and the choice was his own problem.
Xiao Yang and the others didn't rush her. They just sat there and waited for her to make a decision.
After a long while, NanGong Yu took a deep breath and said, "I hope Brother Xiao won't bully me."
