We are on the same side
It was true. The position of City Lord was not like any other position.
Anyone could challenge the position of City Lord. This position was not fixed. It was open to the capable.
Everything depended on one's strength. Without strength, there was no way to sit firmly.
Therefore, many times, the position of City Lord could change hands several times within a year, which made people not know whether to laugh or cry.
The position of City Lord was probably the ultimate dream for countless cultivators. To be able to sit firmly in the position of City Lord and dominate a region was considered a free and unfettered life.
There were many City Lords like this in the Core of All Things World. They had been sitting in the position of City Lord for countless years, but they were still unmoved. No one could shake their position.
Ruling over a region, being a local tyrant, and managing a region well was quite satisfying.
The growth rings of time could crush all dreams, tear all ambitions, and grind all edges and corners.
Pursuit was not something that everyone would always have.
When it was difficult to move forward after the baptism of endless years, it would slowly make people despair of cultivation and eventually degenerate.
Countless cultivators, after reaching a certain level, could no longer move forward. The path of cultivation was also cut off.
Those whose cultivation path had been cut off would have their state of mind slowly change. Therefore, many people with strange personalities were born.
"However, City Lord of Qi Dong City, the position of City Lord also needs strength to fight for. I have strength. No matter which side I am in, I can fight for it. An open and fair stage doesn't need so many doorways. Besides, it can't be faked. "Qin Xiao said.
The City Lord of Qi Dong City nodded. "Yes, you're right. It's true. In this regard, I really don't have much of an advantage. "
Qin Xiao curled his lips and said, "So, City Lord of Qi Dong City, you don't seem to have the conditions to persuade me?"
The City Lord of Qi Dong City chuckled and said, "Yes, if that's the case, then I really don't have any good conditions to persuade you. Therefore, I also feel that my side is still quite weak. In all aspects, it's difficult to compete with the Red Mountain House. However, I do hope that you can join my City Lord's Mansion. We can go out and explore together. "
"There are many benefits to joining the City Lord's Mansion. This way, you can participate in some of the activities organized by the Universal Temple. For example, the upcoming City of Ten Thousand Cities Tournament is a very good stage, and only people from the City Lord's Mansion can participate. "
"Other than that, there are also some places that only the City Lord's Mansion has the right to recommend people to. These cultivation resources are probably a form of preferential treatment given to the City Lord Manor by the Myriad Temple. "
Qin Xiao said: "I've heard a little about this, but the City Lord's Mansion has its own advantages, and so does the Red Mountain House. For example, the Red Mountain House's Myriad Pond. Their headquarters' Myriad Pond is a sacred ground for cultivation. "
On this point, the Qi Dong City Lord was also noncommittal. He nodded and said, "Yes, Qin Xiao, what you said is correct. Whether it's the Red Mountain House, the Hundred Treasures Conglomerate, or the Myriad Kingdom Manor, they all have their own cultivation resources. Compared to the City Lord's Estate, their resources are indeed not inferior. "
"However, I'm afraid you don't know the real reason why I'm so eager to rope you in."
The real reason?
Qin Xiao looked at the Qi Dong City Lord with interest. Wasn't the City Lord trying to rope him in because of his talent and potential?
When he grew stronger in the future, he would owe him a favor.
The Qi Dong City Lord continued: "Perhaps you think that I'm trying to rope you in because of your talent and potential. I'm trying to rope you in and leave behind a favor so that I can use you in the future. However, I don't really care about this point. My strength has also reached the level of a Three Star All Being. If I take another step forward, I'll be aiming for the position of the City Lord. "
"Once I become the City Lord, I'll be at the top of the pyramid in the Heart of All Beings World, at the peak of the clouds."
"At this point, I actually don't need a favor from an expert. After all, as long as a City Lord doesn't offend the forces of the various feudal lords, nothing will happen to him. Furthermore, the City Lord has been conferred a title by the Myriad Temple, and is a member of the Myriad Temple. As long as I don't court death, no one can threaten me. "
"There's not much meaning in being on good terms with you. Your talent and potential are indeed good, but you also need time and speed to grow. Moreover, there are some unexpected circumstances. The more talented you are, the greater the resistance you will encounter on the road to growth. Your road to growth will certainly be full of hardships and bumps. "
"That's why there's no need for me to bet on you. I don't think much of this point. "
After carefully reflecting on these words, Qin Xiao also felt that what the City Lord said was very reasonable. He could see that he wasn't lying.
Indeed, no matter how great one's talent and potential were, they still needed to grow.
Zi Yin could be considered a peerless genius, but in terms of strength, Zi Yin might not be able to suppress the City Lord of Qi Dong City.
Moreover, Qin Xiao could also feel that the City Lord of Qi Dong City had great potential. The City Lord of Qi Dong City's ambition was to become a City Lord. Qin Xiao felt that since the City Lord dared to say so, he must have some confidence.
A City Lord was definitely an important figure in the Heart of All Creation World.
Qin Xiao was somewhat puzzled. What did the City Lord of Qi Dong City mean?
Qi Dong smiled and continued, "Qin Xiao, you may not know about the mechanism by which a City Lord can be promoted to a City Lord. Although it's said that you can challenge anyone, you still need to have the strength to do so. "
"Although a City Lord is a member of the Universal Temple, it's only temporary and not official. As a temporary member, it's naturally impossible for him to obtain many cultivation resources from the Universal Temple. "
"Without a certain amount of cultivation resources, even a genius's path of cultivation will be difficult. Every step must be very difficult. Therefore, we City Lords also have to work hard to obtain cultivation resources. Only in this way can we advance step by step and finally challenge a City Lord. "
"The Universal Temple also has many incentives for City Lords. It's a very complete system."
Hearing this, Qin Xiao somewhat understood. "City Lord of Qi Dong City, this means that you want me to join the City Lord's Mansion mainly to obtain the rewards of the Universal Temple. Therefore, you want to obtain more cultivation resources so that your path can be smoother? "
The City Lord of Qi Dong City did not comment. He nodded and said, "Yes, you can understand it this way. This is also a part of my selfishness."
"Attracting talents, nurturing talents, participating in competitions and obtaining rankings, all of these will have corresponding rewards. You have a lot of potential, so if you can join my City Lord's Mansion and help me, I will be able to obtain even more cultivation resources. In this way, my path of cultivation will be smoother. "
"Of course, I'll obtain more, so I definitely won't let you work for nothing. Our relationship is not that of superior and subordinate, but of cooperation. We'll cultivate together and improve together. Whatever I can give you, I'll give it to you without reservation. "
Qin Xiao pursed his lips and did not make a decision at the moment.
This sounded a little like working hard for someone else.
Qin Xiao believed that the benefits must be mutual.
But if that was all, it did not seem to be enough to move Qin Xiao.
So for a moment, Qin Xiao was a little hesitant.
This seemed to be a little different from what he had expected.
In this way, Qin Xiao felt that the Red Mountain House was the first.
Originally, Qin Xiao thought that there should be something special here that could move the City Lord of Qi Dong City.
But now it seemed that this was not the case.
The matter of working for someone else was really hard for Qin Xiao to accept.
In any case, Qin Xiao certainly had some pride.
So, after thinking for a while, Qin Xiao said, "City Lord of Qi Dong City, if that's all, then I can only say sorry."
Refused?
The City Lord of Qi Dong City was slightly stunned. He immediately shook his head and smiled, saying, "It seems that you're the same as I imagined. I also expected that you would refuse, and the result is indeed so. "
"Fine, fine. Then let's make things clear."
"Your Highness Qin Xiao, how have you been?"
What?
Your Highness Qin Xiao?
Hearing this familiar title, Qin Xiao was also stunned. He looked at the City Lord of Qi Dong City in surprise.
Qin Xiao was also searching hard in his mind. He did not seem to have heard of such a person in Heavenly Court Island.
To be able to call him Your Highness Qin Xiao, that person must know his identity. That person should be someone from Heavenly Court Island.
Qin Xiao knew a lot about the powerful figures of Heavenly Court Island, but he really had not heard of this person in Qi Dong.
So, Qin Xiao looked at the City Lord of Qi Dong City in confusion and said, "May I know who you are from Heavenly Court Island? Forgive my ignorance, but I've never heard of this person called Qi Dong. "
The City Lord of Qi Dong City raised his head and laughed loudly, "Hahaha, it's normal that you don't know me, Qin Xiao. I don't have much of a presence in Heavenly Court Island. I've never been in the limelight outside, so naturally I don't have much of a reputation. I've never been on the Heaven and Earth Lists. I'm afraid that other than Heavenly Court Island, no one outside knows my name. "
"The main thing is that I entered the World of All Creation a long time ago. I've been cultivating inside and have never left. So even fewer people know of me. "
"However, Your Highness Qin Xiao, I've heard of your great name. You're known as the number one genius of our Universe Era. Seeing you in person is better than hearing about you a hundred times. I didn't expect to meet you in the World of All Creation. "
"When you first entered Bayi City, I noticed you. It's just that I wasn't completely sure that it was you. So I've been secretly observing you. Now I'm completely sure that it's you. "
"Our Heavenly Court Island's All Creation Dojo has never been open to outsiders. I didn't expect that you, Qin Xiao, would have such power to make our Heavenly Court Island make an exception and allow you to enter the All Creation Dojo to cultivate. "
Qin Xiao smiled. Since the City Lord of Qi Dong City had said so much, Qin Xiao didn't suspect his identity. It seemed like he was someone who kept a low profile, which was why he didn't know him.
This was normal.
Not just Heavenly Court Island, even in the Desolate Land, Qin Xiao probably still didn't know of many almighty existences.
Qin Xiao shook his head and said, "Desperate times call for desperate measures. If it weren't for the impending calamity, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to enter the All Things Dao Field to comprehend and cultivate. This is my destiny, so I have to grasp it even more."
