The City of Sin was an ancient city with no laws and no one to restrict it. Here, murders, lies, fights, and all sorts of other things happened all the time. It was extremely chaotic.
Therefore, there was never a lack of news in this city. At every moment, shocking news was being passed around and became the topic of conversation.
When the news of Ling Xian killing the strongest powerhouses of the three controlling forces was passed around, the entire City of Sin fell into a state of silence. All the news was suppressed and everyone's limelight was covered. Nothing could compete with the light of this event.
Because this matter was truly too shocking, too inconceivable.
The three powerhouses have been dominating the City of Sin for many years. Their powerfulness has been deeply ingrained in everyone's hearts. Like the kings of Heaven, they peered down at the entire City of Sin. Yet before everyone's eyes, these three completion leveled powerhouses were killed by one person. How unbelievable was this?
Everyone who heard the news was dumbfounded. They couldn't believe that it was true.
Three powerhouses ruled the City of Sin, how could they be killed by one person?
Impossible, it had to be a rumor!
Everyone denied this matter, thinking that it was just a rumor.
However, when the three controlling forces reorganized their territories and prepared for battle, everyone began to realize that this news was not fake.
If it was fake, the three controlling forces wouldn't be so defensive. This was the same as telling everyone that their ancestors had fallen!
Therefore, the entire City of Sin once again fell into a state of shock. This shocking event was like a hurricane that slammed into everyone's heart!
Everyone realized that the three controlling forces were about to be destroyed and that the sky of the City of Sin was about to change.
Just as everyone in the City of Sin was making wild guesses, another piece of news arrived that once again threw everyone into a state of shock.
A man named Chu Zhong Tian walked into the Mu Clan alone. Nobody knew what he said and nobody knew what he did. All they knew was that after he left the Mu Clan, everyone in the Clan also walked out of the Mu Clan and left the City of Sin in a daze.
The same thing happened to the Zhao Clan and the Black Shark Sect.
When this news came out, everyone in the City of Sin was in awe. They weren't idiots and naturally knew what this meant.
The clansmen of the three controlling forces left the City of Sin. This meant that the three controlling forces had fallen and that a new ruler was about to arrive!
When the next piece of news came, it confirmed everyone's guesses.
The man named Chu Zhong Tian gathered all the different forces in the City of Sin together. Then, he unleashed his completion leveled Qi and forced all the different forces to submit!
What could they do? Against a powerful completion leveled cultivator, these forces had no way of resisting. If they didn't want to be destroyed by Chu Zhong Tian, then giving in was the only and best option.
In other words, from this moment on, Chu Zhong Tian was the new ruler of the City of Sin!
When this news spread, it created another storm that engulfed the entire City of Sin.
Shock, envy, reverence, and other emotions filled everyone's hearts. Apart from these emotions, there was no doubt that most of them were laments.
The three controlling forces have been dominating the City of Sin for many years. Their powerfulness was deeply rooted and everyone could only look up to them. Nobody dared to even think of resisting.
Yet now, the three forces have disappeared like smoke and a new ruler has appeared. Why wouldn't everyone feel emotional?
At once, the name Chu Zhong Tian echoed throughout the City of Sin and was remembered by everyone.
However, everyone knew very well that he was merely the ruler on the surface. The real ruler was the one who killed the three powerhouses by himself!
Even though nobody in the City of Sin knew Ling Xian's name, many important figures have seen him at the auction and knew of his powerfulness. When they thought back to the first news, everyone realized that Chu Zhong Tian was merely the spokesperson he pushed onto the stage.
The man who never showed his face was the real ruler of the City of Sin!
The only ruler!
…..
The bright moon hung high in the sky and the night was as dark as ink.
Inside the Mu Clan's main hall, Ling Xian was leaning against a golden chair. In his hand, he held onto a steaming hot cup of tea, giving off a lazy vibe.
Below him, Chu Zhong Tian was standing respectfully with his head lowered. "Your Highness, Zhong Tian didn't disappoint you. I have taken care of all the different forces."
"Good job. I knew you wouldn't disappoint me." Ling Xian sipped on his tea and smiled.
"You are flattering me. I didn't think things would go so smoothly." Chu Zhong Tian revealed a smile. Originally, he didn't have much confidence. It was only because of Ling Xian's order that he decided to take care of this.
The result was unexpectedly smooth. After he gathered all the different forces in the city, he merely released his completion leveled Qi and all those in power chose to submit.
At that moment, he stopped worrying and felt like he didn't disappoint Ling Xian.
"That is normal. The three controlling forces have collapsed and there are no other completion leveled cultivators in the City of Sin. Now that you have appeared as a completion leveled cultivator, those forces naturally chose to obey. "Ling Xian smiled, he was somewhat happy.
Even though the City of Sin was far away and didn't have many resources, it was still a city after all. The wealth hidden inside was extremely shocking.
Ignoring everything else, the yearly tribute from the different forces amounted to a large amount of money. Plus, this City of Sin was hiding many secrets. Once they are dug out, they will be the real treasures!
That was what Ling Xian valued.
"Congratulations, all the different forces in the City of Sin have submitted. From this moment on, you are the new ruler of the City of Sin." Chu Zhong Tian congratulated with a smile. The way he looked at Ling Xian was full of respect and appreciation.
"You are wrong."
Ling Xian softly grinned and teased, "The ruler of the City of Sin is not me. It is you, Chu Zhong Tian."
"What do you mean?" Chu Zhong Tian was startled. Perhaps he remembered something, he said in fear, "Master, I, Chu Zhong Tian, have always been loyal to you. Don't think too much into it."
Hearing this, Ling Xian shook his head with a smile, "You are thinking too much. I don't mean anything else. Did you forget what I said? I have something important to do and I have to leave the City of Sin. "
"I see." Chu Zhong Tian sighed in relief. He was truly afraid that Ling Xian would misunderstand.
"You have already made an oath to the heavens. How can I not trust you? Don't worry, handing over the City of Sin to you is a sign that I trust you. "
Ling Xian softly smiled and explained, "What I meant by what I said just now was that I am about to leave the City of Sin and have no time to worry about what's going on here. Therefore, you are the ruler of the City of Sin. I can just hide behind the scenes. After all, I am about to leave. It's better if I don't show my face. "
"You are right." Chu Zhong Tian appeared hesitant. "But, I am worried that I am not capable enough. After all, I don't know how to manage all the big and small things in the city."
"You don't need to worry about that. You also don't need to manage all the big and small things in the City of Sin. I don't want it to affect your cultivation."
Ling Xian grinned, "You only need to focus on your training and scare off those who dare to offend you. As for the people who are in charge of managing the city, I already have them. "
