After Xu Zu and the others left the Sea Spirit City, they rushed to Long Xuan City. Along the way, they did not dare to delay too much. They traveled day and night, and finally arrived at the gate of Long Xuan City after a few days.
Xu Zu rode his horse directly into the city, dismounted outside the official residence of the Long Xuan City, and walked into the residence.
Compared with Sea Spirit City, which was built by the sea, Long Xuan City not only occupied a vast area, but everything in the city was also more prosperous. The people coming and going in the city were dressed in bright clothes. The whole city was divided into two areas, one was the "rich area" where the strong Gold Spirits resided, and the other was the "poor area" where the weak civilians lived. The division of the two areas was obvious. Ordinary civilians were not allowed to step into the rich area except for working hours. Even in addition to doing some of the dirtiest and most tiring work, they were not even qualified to walk on the streets of the rich area.
Although the strength of Long Xuan City was not high among the 72 cities, it was still better than Sea Spirit City. Its City Lord, Ruan Zhongshan, had been in his position for thousands of years. This period of time was considered long among the City Lords of the 72 cities. Although the City Lords of each city were the top figures in their respective cities, they could not hide the fact that there were talented people in each generation. It was inevitable that they would be surpassed by other strong people and be kicked out of the position of City Lord.
The reason why Ruan Zhongshan could be the City Lord of Long Xuan City for so long was naturally because he had a set of abilities.
Xu Zu hurriedly entered the official residence of the City Lord. Inside the residence, there were pavilions, terraces, and pavilions that were decorated with flowers. Even the maids who were cleaning the corridors were all beautiful and charming. But at this time, Xu Zu had no mood to appreciate the beauty.
"Xu Zu, you are back?" The housekeeper of the City Lord's official residence saw Xu Zu with a smile on his face.
"Is the City Lord here? I have something to see him! "Xu Zu hurriedly said.
The housekeeper said: "The City Lord is enjoying the flowers with the Young Miss of Discerning Moon City. If you have any urgent matter, I will help you pass the message."
Xu Zu was slightly stunned, and his heart was shocked.
Discerning Moon City was different from the remote cities like Long Xuan City and Sea Spirit City. It was located in the middle of the Upper Realm and there were many experts in the city. Even among the seventy-two cities, it was ranked as one of the strongest.
On normal days, a city like the Discerning Moon City wouldn't even bother to come into contact with a city like the Long Xuan City. However … Xu Zu had only gone to the Sea Spirit City for half a month, and he had already received such news when he came back.
"Young Mistress of Discerning Moon City … Why is she here?" Xu Zu's heart was pounding. His yearning for a powerful city made him unable to calm down. If it wasn't for the fact that he was afraid that the butler would find out that he had reported Ruan Zhongshan, Xu Zu really wanted to rush to the front of the young lady of the Discerning Moon City.
"I think it's because of the Sea Spirit Beasts, but I'm not sure about the specifics," the butler said.
Xu Zu knew that there were some things that he shouldn't ask too much, so he didn't want to get to the bottom of it. Instead, he changed the topic and said, "I'm looking for the City Lord because it's about the Sea Spirit City. Can I trouble you to help me inform him about it? It's indeed an urgent matter."
The housekeeper nodded and immediately turned into the backyard, asking Xu Zu to wait in the front hall.
After a while, the housekeeper came to the front hall and said to Xu Zu, "The City Lord said that he's waiting for you in the study room. I'll take you there now."
"Thank you." Xu Zu said respectfully and followed the housekeeper all the way to Ruan Zhongshan's study room.
When passing by a courtyard in the backyard, a silvery bell-like voice came into Xu Zu's ears. He subconsciously wanted to raise his head …
