Book One: Chapter 417
Zhao Fu accepted the Union Seal and asked, "What's your name?"
The middle-aged man replied, "My name is Dongfang He!"
Zhao Fu nodded and said, "I need to know all kinds of information about this place!"
Dongfang He said, "I will report everything I know to you, Lord!"
After an hour, Zhao Fu had a general understanding of Han City. There were seventeen Deacons here, and Zhao Fu's current status was the weakest among the Deacons. The area under his jurisdiction was small, and he did not get many benefits.
Zhao Fu asked, "Is there any way to quickly raise one's status in the Union?"
Dongfang He replied, "This can only be done by someone with a higher position."
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "In other words, if I want to have a higher status, I must ask the City Lord for it?"
Dongfang He nodded.
Zhao Fu said with a smile, "Tell me the information about the City Lord!"
Dongfang He was a bit surprised. He had already guessed what Zhao Fu wanted to do, and he also knew that Zhao Fu would not stay in this place for too long. Dongfang He replied, "Yes!"
The City Lord of Han City had already reached the Emptiness Realm, and he was a lecherous and timid person. A Deacon wanted to offer him a beauty, so he got a better position. However, the situation in Han City was stable, and it was hard to change the position of Deacon.
Zhao Fu was not interested in the other positions of Deacons. Even if his status was raised, he would still be a Deacon. Zhao Fu was interested in the position of the City Lord. However, the City Lord was usually chosen from the more outstanding Deacons. If Zhao Fu wanted to become the City Lord, he had to become an outstanding Deacon.
After thinking for a while, Zhao Fu looked at Dongfang He and said, "Follow me in the future! I promise you that you will be rich and powerful! "
Dongfang He could also see that Zhao Fu was extraordinary. He smiled and bowed, "Thank you, Lord, for choosing me!"
Zhao Fu waited for an entire night before stealthily sneaking towards the City Lord's Mansion. Zhao Fu's method was quite direct – he directly snuck into the City Lord's Mansion and took control of the City Lord. He would then forcefully promote the City Lord to an Excellent Deacon before dethroning the City Lord and becoming the new City Lord.
Although the City Lord's cultivation base was at the Emptiness Realm, he was only an average Emptiness Realm Cultivator. He was not very strong. Zhao Fu believed that he still had the ability to do so.
Before, when Zhao Fu was at the Emperor Heaven Realm, he could already fight with Void Realm experts. Now that Zhao Fu had obtained all sorts of terrifying powers, it would be quite troublesome for him to deal with powerful Void Realm experts, but it would be much easier for him to deal with ordinary Void Realm experts.
Zhao Fu easily snuck into the City Lord's Mansion and arrived at a spacious and luxurious room. A skinny middle-aged man frowned, "What does that Eastern Hu mean? Why did they suddenly send someone to Hancheng? "
He was Han City's City Lord, Dongfang Kong.
Next to him was a cold-looking young man. He was called Dongfang Lu, and he was Han City's most powerful Deacon. It was he who had married his big sister to Dongfang Kong and obtained his current position, and he replied, "I'm sure Eastern Hu wants to dethrone the City Lord and take control of Han City."
Dongfang Kong said angrily, "It's just that I didn't do what he ordered me to do, yet he wants to replace me so quickly. Since he's being heartless, don't blame me for being unjust. I'll immediately serve another Head Deacon and no longer serve Eastern Hu."
A Head Deacon's position was much higher than a City Lord's, and a City Lord's position was only that of an Intermediate Deacon.
Dongfang Lu nodded.
Dongfang Lu was worried that his position would be threatened when Eastern Hu suddenly sent someone to become Han City's Head Deacon, so he immediately went to find Dongfang Kong to discuss this.
He understood that Dongfang Kong was not very strong, and adding on the fact that he had not completed Eastern Hu's orders, it was likely that he would be replaced. His position would fall to rock bottom, and Dongfang Kong would have to sway left and right in order to survive.
Dongfang Kong did not have his own opinion and asked, "Which Head Deacon do you think we should serve?"
Dongfang Lu thought about it and said, "I think it's either a powerful Head Deacon or someone who has a conflict with Eastern Hu. Apart from those two, it'll be very difficult for anyone else to protect us."
Dongfang Kong said, "A powerful Head Deacon might not like us, so we'll find someone who has enmity with Eastern Hu. I just want to be the City Lord and don't have any other goals. Eastern Hu forced me to do all of this, and I didn't do anything bad to him."
Dongfang Lu smiled as he said, "The City Lord isn't wrong at all; it's all because of Eastern Hu."
Hearing this, Dongfang Kong grinned.
Dongfang Lu continued to say, "However, we can't reveal this matter right now because Eastern Hu hasn't made it clear that he wants to replace us. We can continue to hide and fight back when necessary."
Dongfang Kong smiled and nodded.
"I don't think there's any need to go through so much trouble!" a figure suddenly sounded out, causing the two people's expressions to fall.
A terrifying aura spread out in the air as countless traces of blood-red qi leapt towards the two people. Dongfang Lu was only at the Emperor Heaven Realm, and the blood-red qi covered him, locking him in place. He was unable to resist at all; it could be seen the difference between Zhao Fu and ordinary Emperor Heaven Realm experts.
Seeing the blood-red qi coming at him, Dongfang Kong immediately exploded out with a powerful power, forming a formless force field that blocked the blood-red qi.
Just as Dongfang Kong was about to call out, the blood-red qi condensed into a massive hand and grabbed towards Dongfang Kong with terrifying power. The force field protecting Dongfang Kong was shattered, and the blood-red qi hand grabbed Dongfang Kong.
Zhao Fu smiled as he walked out of the air.
Dongfang Lu immediately recognized Zhao Fu and said, "You're the new Head Deacon? As expected, Eastern Hu wanted to get rid of us from the start. "
Zhao Fu lightly laughed as he said, "I think you've misunderstood. I don't know if Eastern Hu wanted to or not, but getting rid of you is my own will."
Dongfang Kong said in fear, "Don't kill me; I'll give you anything you want. That's right, his big sister, Dongfang Mei, is Han City's number one beauty. As long as you don't kill me, I'll give her to you."
Seeing Dongfang Kong, a Void Realm expert, act so cowardly in front of an Emperor Heaven Realm expert, Dongfang Lu felt quite disgusted and angry. However, in order to live, he could only say, "That's right, my big sister is Han City's number one beauty. Sir, are you not tempted?"
Zhao Fu smiled as he said, "I don't have such thoughts right now; you can die now!"
The blood-red qi turned into countless insects and crawled into the two people's bodies. Sensing this power, the two people were horrified to confirm that Zhao Fu was the Evil Celestial.
The two people struggled in pain, but it was too late. In the end, the two people lost their strength and became puppets. Now, Zhao Fu could control them to do anything. Ordinary higher-beings would not be able to tell because Zhao Fu was using the Evil Celestial's power.
