"Everyone, please take a seat." Ning Cheng sat on his seat and stretched out his hand with a smile.
The rest of the cultivators also sat down one by one; however, the atmosphere was no longer as casual and fierce as when they first arrived. In front of everyone, Ning Cheng had killed Mao Xiuxuan in less than a quarter of an incense stick worth of time, causing everyone to feel fearful of him. Killing Mao Xiuxuan in such a short time, even Jian Xuanming could not do it.
"In the City Master election, I obtained four votes. Originally, Brother Jian had the same number of votes as me, and would have had the opportunity to compete again. I did not expect that the Auspicious Star Chamber of Commerce would suddenly encounter such an incident. Brother Jian, what do you think? "Ning Cheng looked at Jian Xuanming with a smile.
Today, he had already planned to kill a person to establish his prestige. In his opinion, it would be best to kill Jian Xuanming. He did not expect that Mao Xiuxuan would court death, while Jian Xuanming would withdraw, causing Ning Cheng to feel some regret in his heart.
Jian Xuanming spoke up in a flat tone, "Since Brother Ning obtained more votes than me, and is already living in the City Master's Mansion, then Brother Ning should be the City Master of the Rootless Black City."
"Yes, I also agree with Brother Ning taking over as the City Master of the Rootless Black City." A red-haired man spoke up without hesitation. He was Dan Wenhong of Black City's Crafting Division. A moment ago, he had supported Jian Xuanming, but now he turned to Ning Cheng. It was as if it was a matter of course, without even the slightest bit of embarrassment.
"I also agree."
"Yes, I also agree."
… …
After killing Mao Xiuxuan, the rest of the people no longer opposed Ning Cheng taking over as the City Master of the Rootless Black City. Even the previously neutral Captain of the Void Adventure Squad, Du Jiashu, also agreed with Ning Cheng taking over as the City Master.
In fact, for these people, whether Ning Cheng became the City Master or not, they really did not care. What they cared about was what Ning Cheng would do after taking over as the City Master?
Ning Cheng stood up and cupped his fists, before speaking up in a stern voice, "Since everyone is so enthusiastic, then I will take on this important task. You might say that taking over as the City Master is an easy and profitable task, but I don't think so. My Rootless Black City has been rotting for a long time. Countless cultivators have gone through hardships to break through the Heaven's Way, not to mention the Rootless Black City's Spacial Wind Edges ….. "
When Ning Cheng spoke up to here, apart from Chao Jimeng of the Rogue Cultivators of the Rootless Black, no one present showed any expression. except for Chao Ji of the Rogue Cultivators from the Rogue Alliance.
"Since none of you have any big opinions, then I will first announce a few new laws of the Rootless Black City ….." Ning Cheng did not expect that there would really be someone like him who wanted to re-establish order within the Rootless Black City. From his point of view, how could a city with no restrictions be any better?
In, Cheng, Ning Ning, he, Black City, and, he did, by by by by the city, he did not show. did, he, he. by by.
One, he and by., he. he., he. Cheng. and, the time,, he after, he of the by by, by, by, by by by by by by, the Rororororo. Of of of of the Cheng of of the Cheng, he the Rogue Sect, he the Rogue, he the Cheng by by of the of the Cheng the Rogue Rogue after.
The Rootless Black City had more than just a black name. Only the cultivators who lived here for many years knew how difficult it was to live here. As a rogue cultivator, Chao Jimeng could understand the difficulties of living here. Not to mention being exploited at any time, he could even be killed at any time.
If not for helping some rogue cultivators, he, Chao Jimeng, would have already left for the starry skies of the universe. Unfortunately, he did not have the ability to reverse the situation. Moreover, those who had the ability to reverse the situation did not want to waste time on the Void Black City. Now that Ning Cheng suddenly appeared, and wanted to reverse the darkness of the Black City, he naturally did not hesitate to stand up and support Ning Cheng.
"I also support City Master Ning." The second to stand up was Gan Anran, followed by Wu Yingzhe of the Black City Array Formation Alliance.
Wu Yingzhe was a Tier 7 Array Formation Grand Master; only he knew how terrifying Ning Cheng was. Ning Cheng's Array Formations were something that even he could not understand. Such a terrifying person, he absolutely did not want to be an enemy. From the moment Ning Cheng issued the invitation, he had never wanted to go against Ning Cheng.
"Alright, thank you all."
Ning Cheng cupped his fists before continuing, "Now that I'm the City Master of the Rootless Black City, the first thing I want to do is to clean up the entire Rootless Black City's order. Everyone should already know that I have formed a cultivator army. This cultivator army will be the only cultivator army within the Rootless Black City. There will never be a second one … … "
Everyone thought to themselves that after Ning Cheng formed a cultivator army, he would never allow a second cultivator army to emerge.
"From now on, I will promulgate a set of laws within the Rootless Black City and the Receiving Heaven's Stone. No matter who it is, as long as they violate the laws, they must be dealt with in accordance with the laws. First, from now on, all the Rest Stops on the Receiving Heaven's Stone will be removed, leaving only a Rest Stop and a place to exchange Black Coins. The price will be the same as the Rootless Black City.
Second, the Rootless Black City will require 1,000 Black Coins to apply for an Identity Jade Card. Moreover, this Black Coin will not be distributed; it will all be used for the expenses of the Rootless Black City's cultivator army. Third, regardless of any cultivator or any Chamber of Commerce, anyone who dares to rob a female cultivator or rob a newcomer's belongings will be killed without mercy. Anyone who dares to kill in the Rootless Black City, regardless of which city district, will be killed without mercy. The Rootless Black City will also establish a Duelling Platform. Those who have a grudge against each other can challenge each other through the Duelling Platform. However, both parties must agree to it … Fourth … Fifth … … If there are any incomplete matters, the City Master's Mansion will issue a complete law manual ….. "
When Ning Cheng briefly stated the contents of the law, the entire meeting hall turned silent.
After a while, Chao Jimeng slapped the table and stood up, before shouting, "Good."
He had wanted to establish a set of laws and regulations within the Rootless Black City for many years. Unfortunately, he was alone and weak, while his cultivation was only at the 2nd Level of Plundering Life Realm. Within the Rootless Black City, his strength was not even enough to fill the gaps between the teeth of others.
"I don't agree. If the Receiving Heaven's Stone does not allow the opening of a Rest Stop, nor does it allow the exchange of Black Coins. If the Black Coins used to apply for an Identity Jade Card when entering the Rootless Black City for the first time, as well as the daily payment of Black Coins by the cultivators in the Rootless Black City, would all belong to the City Master's Mansion. How can our Chamber of Commerce survive? "A gentle looking long-bearded male cultivator immediately retorted.
"Who are you?" Ning Cheng glanced at this long-bearded male cultivator.
The long-bearded male cultivator spoke up in a tone that was neither overbearing nor servile, "I am Bu Yuanmao from the Gale Void Alliance. I have two businesses in the Receiving Heaven's Stone and a few good businesses in the Rootless Black City."
Ning Cheng nodded, "Then let me ask you, does your Gale Void Alliance's main source of Black Coins come from the newcomers?"
Saying that, Ning Cheng directly stared at Bu Yuanmao. If Bu Yuanmao dared to say that the Gale Void Alliance's Black Coins came from the newcomers, then he would not hesitate to destroy this alliance.
A Chamber of Commerce that mainly earns Black Coins from the newcomers would definitely have bloody hands.
Bu Yuanmao spoke up with disdain, "My Gale Void Alliance's Black Coins mainly come from the Void Ships, the Void Adventures, and some transactions with the Chamber of Commerce. How could it be obtained from the newcomers?"
"Since it is not obtained from the newcomers, then why do you object to me abolishing the Rest Stop and the Chamber of Commerce at the Receiving Heaven's Stone?" Ning Cheng asked in a cold tone.
Bu Yuanmao felt very unhappy in his heart. He knew that Ning Cheng had killed Mao Xiuxuan to establish his prestige. However, every year, the newcomers would come to the Receiving Heaven's Stone, which would bring a huge amount of Black Coins to the Gale Void Alliance. If this piece was missing, then many people in his Gale Void Alliance would feel dissatisfied.
The reason why he could become the boss of the Gale Void Alliance was that he had to satisfy his subordinates. As for the lives of those newcomers, to be honest, how much was it worth? Even now, he believed that Ning Cheng killing Mao Xiuxuan and destroying the Auspicious Star Chamber of Commerce was just an excuse to establish his prestige. He absolutely did not believe that Ning Cheng would be so lofty as to seek benefits for ordinary rogue cultivators and newcomers.
"City Master Ning, I have no opinion on choosing you as the City Master, and I also agree to it. However, what my Gale Void Alliance wants to do is my Gale Void Alliance's business. City Master Ning does not need to worry about it. City Master Ning, please continue to work hard. I will take my leave now. "With that, Bu Yuanmao suddenly stood up and prepared to leave.
Ning Cheng's mouth overflowed with a trace of disdain, did he still want to leave after coming to the Hongmen Banquet? If his strength had reached the Plundering Life Realm, then this person would have already left. However, his current strength was not enough. Letting this Bu Yuanmao leave, unless he was an idiot.
"City Master, the Auspicious Star Chamber of Commerce has already been destroyed. From now on, the Auspicious Star Chamber of Commerce no longer exists in the Rootless Black City. As for the territories of the Auspicious Star Chamber of Commerce, they are sealed off just like the Silver Thunder Chamber of Commerce. " Shen Zimo's voice arrived at the same time as Bu Yuanmao stood up. Everyone could feel the powerful killing intent coming from him.
"Good, you've worked hard."
Ning Cheng had just finished this sentence when he heard Bu Yuanmao speak up in a calm voice, "City Master Ning, I will now return to the Gale Void Encampment. Please open the Array Formation."
Bu Yuanmao also stood up, only to find that there was no exit. If he wanted to go out, then he would have to forcibly break through Ning Cheng's Array Formation. Although he was powerful, he did not dare to break open Ning Cheng's Array Formation in this place.
Ning Cheng did not care about Bu Yuanmao at all. He knew that killing Mao Xiuxuan today was not enough. In order to stabilize the Rootless Black City, he had to kill Bu Yuanmao. Moreover, he could not kill Bu Yuanmao with his own hands.
"Zimo, have you investigated the crimes of the Gale Void Alliance?"
As soon as Ning Cheng's words came out, the entire Assembly Hall instantly turned ice-cold. Ning Cheng killing Mao Xiuxuan before could be considered as establishing his prestige. If he killed Bu Yuanmao, then it would not just be establishing his prestige, but would also be exterminating him.
"City Master Ning, what do you want?" Bu Yuanmao could feel his voice trembling. He did not think that Ning Cheng would be so daring. After killing Mao Xiuxuan, he even dared to act against him. One had to know that from the beginning to the end, he had never acted like Mao Xiuxuan. At least on the surface, he was still polite towards Ning Cheng.
"In the last 30 years, the Gale Void Alliance has killed 198 innocent newcomer cultivators, robbed 41 newcomer female cultivators, robbed 218 of the belongings of the Rootless Black City's rogue cultivators, and killed 212 people ….." Shen Zimo's tone was laced with thick murderous intent.
Ning Cheng glanced at the silent Assembly Hall and spoke up in a calm voice, "Ladies and gentlemen, the Rootless Black City belongs to all of us. I think there are some things that require everyone's help. As for the Gale Void Alliance's actions, I want to hear everyone's opinion. "
The Assembly Hall turned even more silent. Ning Cheng wanted everyone to show their loyalty.
