Zhu Minglang felt uncomfortable being pointed at and scolded like this.
Although it was not as childish as counting the stars, Zhu Minglang and Li Yunzi did talk for the entire night and he did not succeed. This was the truth!
That old man, why did he act like he knew everything!
He was labeled as a pervert for no reason.
That's not right!
Even if he and his wife spent the entire night together, it was still proper. How did it become a pervert? It was clearly the girls from Divine Mortal Academy who had unhealthy thoughts!
"You are Zhu Minglang?" The man in the peacock robe sized him up.
"One month is up. You should return the City Lord's Seal to us as soon as possible." Zhu Minglang repeated.
Even if he did not want to give it back, he had to give it back!
Zhu Minglang was more than happy to find fault with him.
What he was most proud of in life was not the great improvement in his strength, but the fact that after the improvement, there was a blind person who happened to bump into him, giving him the perfect opportunity to show off!
His dragons had already sharpened their fangs.
"I heard that you, Zhu Minglang, were very impressive at the Imperial Capital's Tournament of Powers." The man in the peacock robe said.
The members of the powers naturally cared about the competition between the powers.
Zhu Minglang could be said to have shone in the tournament of powers. The different powers in the continent naturally knew about Zhu Minglang.
"I thought that no one in the Polar Court Continent knew about my small achievement." Zhu Minglang said.
"I heard that you defeated many top disciples of the royal family, Zi Zonglin, Hao Qi Wu Sect and Xuan Shan Sword Sect all by yourself." The man in the peacock robe continued.
"You flatter me …" Zhu Minglang pretended to be humble, but in the next moment, he changed the topic. "Other than them, there are also the Azure Dragon Palace, the Pu Clan, your Divine Mortal Academy and hundreds of their top disciples, most outstanding disciples and most outstanding disciples. I don't like to bully the weak. I am used to fighting one against a hundred."
After Zhu Minglang finished speaking, the faces of the five people from the Divine Mortal Academy turned green.
Forces did not participate in worldly disputes, nor did they interfere in the struggle for power. What they cared about the most was dignity!
Who was the strongest cultivator?
Which force could be superior to others?
Most cultivators even saw themselves as half immortals and gods. One day, they would step onto the Immortal Path and the Divine Realm and be separated from the mortals of the world.
And in a competition between cultivators, victory and defeat was everything.
The fact that God Mortal Academy did not perform exceptionally well in the Forces Tournament was a thorn in their hearts!
"It's just a spar between disciples, what's there to be proud of!" At this moment, a Divine Mortal Academy member behind the peacock robed man spoke out in disdain.
"I'm not proud, I'm just stating the facts. If you think I'm proud because I'm stating the facts, then I can only say that you care more about this title than I do. In fact, if you don't mention it, why would I mention it? I, Zhu Minglang, have done a lot of earth-shattering things in my life. The Tournament of Powers is nothing," Zhu Minglang said calmly.
A gust of wind blew up the sand and dust on the ground, blowing towards the crowd of onlookers at the city gate.
There were commoners and cultivators. All of them were speechless as they looked at the newly arrived City Lord Zhu Minglang. At this moment, they had the urge to stand on the side of God Mortal Academy and beat up Zhu Minglang!
"We will not casually give out the City Lord's Seal. If you really want it, you have to pass the test of our God Mortal Academy. Rulers and powerhouses need it! "The peacock robed man said.
"I don't accept it." Zhu Minglang rejected directly.
"It's not up to you!" The lady with permanent eyebrows said angrily.
"The item originally belonged to us and was temporarily kept by you. Now that the owner wants it back, you are purposely making things difficult for him? Do you really think that I, Zhu Minglang, am a pushover? I will wait for a week. After a week, if you don't hand over the City Lord's Seal, I will personally pay a visit to your God Mortal Academy. At that time, don't blame me, Zhu Minglang, for not giving you any face! "Zhu Minglang said.
"We are here to patrol. Not only are you not cooperating, you are even denouncing us. What guts! Aren't you afraid that the enforcers of order will take everything away from you?!" The lady with permanent eyebrows said loudly.
When Zhu Minglang heard these words, he found it funny.
Firstly, they were not enforcers of order and did not have the qualifications to patrol.
Secondly, what were they patrolling for?
Zhu Minglang had the Runyu City's document in his hands and it was definitely authentic. Secondly, regarding the ownership of Runyu City, Li Yunzi had already asked Commander Cheng to submit it to the Empire's Imperial Court. Moreover, Li Yunzi had the Empire's Seal in her hands!
The Runyu City's land deed, ownership document and the submission to the Empire's Imperial Court could not be clearer about the current situation of Runyu City.
Now that God Mortal Academy came here to patrol, it was obvious that they did not want to provide protection for Runyu City.
Moreover, they did not even want to hand over the City Lord's Seal.
Zhu Minglang knew of God Mortal Academy's attitude and there was no need for him to be courteous with these people who came to question him.
It was not as if Runyu City would be destroyed without the protection of God Mortal Academy.
If they wanted to start a war with Runyu City, they could just bring it on. Even if the army of a few small countries was huge, Zhu Minglang would not put them in his eyes.
"What are you laughing at!" The man in the peacock robe said.
"Since you know that I am Zhu Minglang, don't use the enforcers of order to intimidate others. Therefore, you don't have to beat around the bush. Just tell me the purpose of your God Mortal Academy's visit today. "Zhu Minglang said.
"Haha, that's fine too. Firstly, our God Mortal Academy will not protect you. We will not allow Runyu City to belong to a lowly country. Secondly, the City Lord's Seal belongs to our God Mortal Academy. If you pay a monthly tribute of two million gold, we will allow you to become the manager and ruler of this city. "The man in the peacock robe said.
Two million gold??
Hu Chongming and Hu Bailing were dumbfounded when they heard this.
In this world, there were still people who collected taxes from the ruler??
Normally, the overseeing powers would only take possession of the resources they needed. There had never been such a thing as collecting taxes from the ruler!
Why did it feel like God Mortal Academy was the biggest evil overseeing Runyu City?!
"If you don't want to protect Runyu City, we will change the overseeing powers. From now on, we will take back all the spiritual lands, spiritual mountains and spiritual veins in Runyu City. If God Mortal Academy dares to step into this place again, don't blame me for treating you as bandits! "Zhu Minglang said.
"What a joke. The spiritual veins on this piece of land originally belonged to our God Mortal Academy. How can we take them back?"
"Raindrop City is mine. Every blade of grass, every tree, every bird, and every beast in Raindrop City is mine, not to mention the spiritual veins. I'm very grateful that you've come all the way here to give me these gifts. If there's nothing else, you can get out of here. I have to think about the next major force in Raindrop City …"
