After a moment of silence, Lan finally made up her mind.
"Let's forget about what happened in the past. Let's see how they perform in the future."
"Are you sure?" Chen asked.
"Yes!" Lan answered confidently.
Clearly, Lan Mengcheng was not a naive little girl. She was smart and had the temperament of a leader.
The reason why she let these people go was because she wanted to keep Blue Moon City safe.
One had to know that these nearly one hundred elders were the core higher-ups of Blue Moon City. If they were all crippled, it would be equivalent to cutting off the brains of Blue Moon City.
Blue Moon City would fall into chaos. It would take a long time for them to recover.
Lan did not want to have such a deadly internal conflict in front of her enemies.
Chen was smart. He knew what Lan was thinking. He looked at the crowd and said, "I have spared your lives. You should know what to do in the future, right?"
"Thank you, master … Thank you, master … We will be loyal to you from now on. We will serve you faithfully. If we have any other thoughts, we will die a horrible death. We will never be able to reincarnate …"
As if they had just been pardoned, they turned to Lan Mengcheng, thanking her profusely and showing their loyalty.
Needless to say, after today's incident, all the elders were completely under Chen's control. As long as Chen was around, they would not dare to cause any trouble even if they had the guts of a hundred million people.
As long as they were obedient, Blue Moon City would be stable and united.
That was what Lan Mengcheng wanted.
Taking a step back, Lan Mengcheng could not deny that these elders were related to her by blood. If it was not unforgivable, Lan Mengcheng would not want to kill them all.
"What master?"
Chen raised his eyebrows and said, "From today onwards, I will be your leader and governor!"
After that, Chen passed the Holy Ice Bracelet to Lan.
"This …"
Lan held the bracelet in her hands. She did not know what to do.
As the saying goes, when the husband sings, the wife follows. Lan wanted Chen to be the mayor, and she would assist him from the side.
She did not expect Chen to return the bracelet to her all of a sudden.
"Lan, I think the reason why your cultivation stagnated after you obtained the legacy of the Lan Family is related to the Holy Ice Bracelet!"
Keep this item with you! You might be able to turn things around in the future! "Chen Xiaobei said.
"I understand now …" Lan Mengcheng nodded.
She had been working very hard recently, but she just could not digest the power of inheritance. Chen Xiaobei might have seen through her.
Lan Mengcheng put away the Holy Ice Bracelet.
According to the rules set by the ancestors of the Lan family, Lan Mengcheng became the new governor of the city. At the same time, Lan Mengcheng was a member of the Lan family and could also serve as the clan leader.
"Greetings Clan Leader … Greetings Clan Leader …"
How would the surrounding elders dare to be the slightest bit negligent? They prostrated themselves on the ground and worshipped Lan Mengcheng.
"I'll recommend you a Great Elder!"
Chen Xiaobei pointed at the heavily injured Blue Dragon and said, "His name is Blue Dragon. He is a trustworthy friend. He is very familiar with Blue Moon City. I'm sure he can help you!"
"Alright!" Lan agreed to Chen's suggestion without hesitation.
"Greetings, Great Elder … Greetings, Great Elder …"
Chen's words were like an imperial edict. Immediately, everyone turned around and worshipped the Blue Dragon.
"Bro Bei …"
Lan Long's expression froze, and he immediately felt overwhelmed by the favor.
At this moment, he felt extremely lucky! He felt lucky that he had made friends with Chen Xiaobei! He felt lucky that he had followed the right person!
Without Chen Xiaobei, Blue Dragon would never be able to reach such heights in his life!
"Congratulations …" Lan Shunyi cupped his hands at Blue Dragon.
Chen Xiaobei looked at Lan Shunyi and said, "After you complete my mission, you can decide whether you want to follow me or stay here and be the Second Elder!"
"Yes, Sir!" Lan Shunyi was overjoyed.
"Greetings, Second Elder … Greetings, Second Elder …"
The surrounding elders quickly turned to Lan Shunyi and worshipped him as well.
Without a doubt, Chen Xiaobei had become a nightmare to these elders.
As long as it was Chen Xiaobei's people, they would not dare to neglect them. Even if Chen Xiaobei appointed a dog to be their Elder, they would still worship him like a god.
* Swoosh *
Immediately after that, Chen Xiaobei kept Lan Wushou's storage space in his palm.
Inside were two late-stage Saint Artefacts, 10 million Saint Yuan Crystal Stones, and a variety of miscellaneous items, all of which were basically recycled goods.
* Swoosh *
Chen Xiaobei released a stream of Saint Vitality and removed Lan Wushou's communication talisman from his body.
After that, Chen Xiaobei used Lan Wushou's talisman to contact the governor of Blizzard City, Bai Wangu.
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): There's a change to the peace plan that I mentioned earlier!
Bai Wangu: Something that was just decided is going to change?! Are you messing with me?!
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): Didn't you notice the strange movement in Lan Yue City?
Bai Wangu: I noticed it! Lan Xingtian activated the city's protective formation. Did he encounter a powerful opponent?
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): He encountered me!
Bai Wangu: You? Aren't you Lan Wushou?
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): Let me introduce myself. My name is Chen Xiaobei! I've defeated Lan Xingtian!
Bai Wangu: Chen Xiaobei? I've never heard of you!
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): It's okay if you haven't heard of me. All you need to know is that I have the final say in Lan Yue City!
Bai Wangu: What an arrogant bastard! However, since you defeated Lan Xingtian, you do have the right to be arrogant!
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): What do you think? Are you interested to hear my proposal? Or are you ready to fight me?
Bai Wangu: Tell me about your proposal first!
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): First, Lan Yue City will not submit to you! Second, Lan Yue City will not hand over Lan Mengcheng!
Bai Wangu: That's your proposal? Just wait for the battle!
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): What's the rush? I'm not done yet! An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth! I will hand over Lan Lingyan. At the same time, I will hand over the former governor, Lan Xingtian, and the former grand elder, Lan Wushou to you!
Bai Wangu: This …
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): Three lives in exchange for one of your son's. You should swallow this insult!
Bai Wangu: What if I can't swallow it?
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): Heh, I've already handed over the murderer to you. If you still don't forgive me, then you're in the wrong! All the cities in Liangzhou will definitely accuse you of bullying others!
Bai Wangu: Heh, my Bai Family is the most powerful family in Liangzhou. Why should I be afraid of being criticized?
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): You're not afraid? Heh, if you're not afraid, you would've swept through Liangzhou a long time ago! Why would you wait until your son is dead before you mobilize your army?
Bai Wangu: This …
Lan Wushou (Chen Xiaobei): We all know what's going on! Although your Bai Family is powerful, a tiger can't fight against a pack of wolves! Once you anger the public, all the cities in Liangzhou will join hands and your Bai Family will be destroyed!
