It was so quiet that even the sound of a pin dropping could be heard. After a long while, Duan Yunhe coughed lightly and stood up. He looked at the crowd and said, "The City Lord election is held once every five years. From this moment on, the City Lord of the East District will be Qi Kang. The City Lords of the other three districts will remain unchanged."
The voice that contained the aura of spirit force clearly entered everyone's ears, causing them to return to their senses. Some people below the stage looked at Qi Kang with a complicated expression, some people had anticipation and joy in their eyes, and some people looked like they were waiting to watch a good show.
Although the City Lord election was held once every five years, the connections that the incumbent City Lord had accumulated over the past five years were not something that could be easily overthrown. Moreover, where did Qi Kang come from? If he did not have a strong subordinate, it would be difficult for him to hold the position of City Lord of the East District.
At this time, the other people from the High Firmament Celestial Sect also regained their senses. They looked at Qi Kang with mixed feelings in their eyes. After a while, the elder stroked his beard and walked forward. He said, "Qi Kang, I'll send someone to accompany you to the East District Governor's Mansion to hand over the position!"
He paused and looked at the City Lord of the East District, who was on the verge of death. He sighed and ordered in a deep voice, "Carry him back first. Tell his family to move out of the East District Governor's Mansion by today."
"Yes." The city guard respectfully responded and quickly carried the City Lord of the East District away.
At this time, the people in the East District Governor's Mansion who heard the news exclaimed in disbelief, "This is impossible! How is this possible! We've lived here for ten years, and our Master has always been the City Lord. How could … "
The messenger panted and said, "It's true. The election is over. The people from the High Firmament Celestial Sect will accompany the new City Lord to hand over the position."
Hearing this, the people in the mansion felt their legs go weak and fell to the ground in disbelief. If the City Lord was replaced, they would not be able to keep the wealth that they had accumulated over the years because of the City Lord …
Following the end of the competition, the crowd gradually dispersed. It had been many years since there had been a change of City Lord. Now that the City Lord had been replaced with Qi Kang, it was likely that the East District would undergo a major change in the near future.
Thinking of this, some people were already thinking of finding time to visit the new East City Lord with gifts in the East City Lord's Mansion.
In the teahouse, Fengjiu and the others were not in a hurry to leave after watching the election. She lay on the soft couch and narrowed her eyes. She said to the people around her, "I'm going to sleep for a while. I'll go back later."
Hearing this, the others quietly retreated. Leng Shuang brought a blanket to cover her and then stood guard by her side.
As for the medicine building, the people of the Yu Family were all standing guard in the backyard of the medicine building. When they heard the voice's reminder to send the people to the medicine building, they thought that they would be driven out. However, after an elegant man walked out and asked about the situation, they sent the people in.
He had been in there for quite some time now. How was the situation? This caused the people guarding outside to be extremely worried.
"Uncle, my father will be fine, right?" The man's face was filled with unconcealable worry. He looked at the tightly shut door without any movement. His heart was in turmoil and he was restless.
