City Lord's Mansion, Conference Hall.
The Elf Patriarch and the other fourth-step Heavenly Venerate Patriarchs were all gathered here. The captains of the Free Army were also present. This was the highest decision-making team of Free City.
"The City Lord is indeed wise and mighty, both intelligent and brave. The matter that has been giving us a headache for a long time was easily resolved as soon as the City Lord returned. "
"Not only did you drive all those people with evil intentions out of Free City, but you also strengthened the prestige of Free City. At the same time, some people who really yearned for Free City stayed. Moreover, the citizens of Free City were given a baptism.
It's a chance for baptism. Under the baptism, we've all been elevated. "
"Not only did this incident not cause any losses to Free City, but it also increased the cohesion of Free City and tested our freedom."
"What was originally a bad thing became a good thing in the end. And all of this is because of you, City Lord. "
"As long as the City Lord is here, Free City will be glorious. We will not be afraid of anything. We will be a true Free City. Our Free City can't do without you, City Lord. "
The Elf Patriarch's sentimental words made Qin Xiao feel very embarrassed.
The other Patriarchs immediately echoed and praised Qin Xiao, saying that Free City couldn't do without him.
Hearing these mushy words, Qin Xiao was extremely embarrassed. She hurriedly stopped and said, "This world operates the same way no matter who it is. Didn't Free City exist for tens of thousands of eras without me, Qin Xiao?"
"I, Qin Xiao, am actually not that important. What's important is everyone, the citizens of Free City."
The Elf Patriarch waved his hand and said, "City Lord, you are too modest. You can't say that. If it wasn't for the City Lord, then our Free City would definitely be in danger. Free City also needs to have a strong presence.
You have to be strong enough to guard and protect the operation of Free City. "
"Therefore, there is no doubt about your role, City Lord."
"But I can't stay in Free City. I have to leave soon. The days when I can return to Free City are few and far between." Qin Xiao shook his head.
Hearing this, everyone fell silent.
In fact, how could everyone not know about this situation?
Qin Xiao was now a student of Saint College. Naturally, she couldn't stay in Free City all the time.
Qin Xiao looked at the Elf Patriarch and the others. She pursed her lips and hardened her heart. "This time, I returned to Free City because I wanted to see you and the situation in Free City. Secondly, I wanted to discuss with you about the City Lord.
It's about the Seat of Heaven. "
"I'm afraid I won't be able to return to Free City in the future. I don't have an avatar, so I won't be able to guard Free City. I won't be able to take care of Free City."
"As the saying goes, a country cannot go a day without a ruler, and a city cannot go a day without a city lord. I can't be the City Lord anymore. You can nominate someone else to be the City Lord. "
"However, although I won't be the City Lord of Free City in the future, my heart will always be with Free City. Being the enemy of Free City was the same as being the enemy of Qin Xiao. If the Free City is in trouble, I, Qin Xiao, will definitely be the first one even if I am at the ends of the earth.
I will rush back. "
"I just won't be the City Lord anymore, but I won't abandon Free City."
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
However, Qin Xiao's words clearly didn't get everyone's approval. They all expressed their disagreement.
Qin Xiao looked at the Elf Patriarch and said, "Elf Patriarch, other than me, you are the strongest here. Your prestige has always been the highest, and you are also the most experienced."
"Now that Free City is on the right track, all aspects are very good. Therefore, I think you should take over the City Lord's position. I believe everyone will support you. "
The Elf Patriarch immediately shook his head and waved his hand. He hurriedly refused. "No, no, you can't do this, City Lord. I won't be the City Lord even if I'm beaten to death. "
"It's not like I haven't tried before. It really doesn't work. Only you are qualified to be the City Lord of Liberty City. No one else is qualified to be the City Lord. "
"Even if I agree, the others won't agree. The people of the Myriad Races won't agree either."
"Yes, City Lord, you can continue to be the City Lord. Only you can convince the people the most. No one else can, not even Elder Brother Elf. "
"City Lord, you have the hearts of the people. Everyone will listen to you. If you don't become the City Lord, then our Free City will very likely return to the way it was before. Then, all our previous efforts will be wasted. "
"City Lord, you can just be the City Lord. You can't stay in Free City for a long time. Everyone understands that. You are now a student of Sacred Academy. Of course, you won't have time to return to Free City.
We know that this won't affect you being the City Lord. "
"Yes, City Lord. Even if you aren't here, as long as you are the City Lord of Free City, it's fine. That's what everyone wants. "
The Elf Patriarch also said again. "City Lord, you must think twice. We old fellows can still manage Free City for the time being."
"But if we agree to change the City Lord, the people of the Myriad Races won't obey. The City Lord's position belongs to you. Don't decline anymore. "
"Elf Patriarch, I —"
Before Qin Xiao could finish his words, the Elf Patriarch interrupted him and begged again. "City Lord, it's all because of you that our Free City is in this situation today. Everyone's faith lies in you. "
"Because you are the City Lord, your light shines on the entire Free City. That's why Free City has such cohesion and is slowly developing in a good direction."
"It's your light that illuminates everyone. It's your faith that supports everyone. If you don't become the City Lord, then won't the light dim? Won't the faith be gone? Then Liberty City will certainly be restored to its former state, and you don't want to
Don't you want the City to return to its former state? "
"Therefore, this old man is willing to ask the City Lord, for the sake of the people of Free City, to take back your order and continue to be the City Lord of Free City."
"I'm willing to ask the City Lord, for the sake of the people of Free City, to take back your order and continue to be the City Lord of Free City."
The other patriarchs and captains of the Free City Army also followed suit.
Although Qin Xiao's time in Free City was short, he had already been deeply rooted in the people's hearts and his prestige was unparalleled.
This was already a form of faith.
Qin Xiao was also a little helpless. He didn't know what to say. If he said anything else, he would feel very embarrassed. It was really difficult to refuse such kindness.
What should he do?
Sigh, it seemed that there was really no other way. He could only continue to be the City Lord of Free City.
However, he was going to be a shopkeeper who didn't do anything. Speaking of which, he was really a little ashamed.
"Sigh, alright. I really don't know what to do with you." Qin Xiao shook his head helplessly.
"Haha, that's great. That's great. I knew that the City Lord wouldn't leave us alone." The Elf Patriarch and the others were relieved when they saw that Qin Xiao had given up on the idea.
"But let me say this first. I'm definitely going to leave Free City soon and will definitely not come back in the future. I will only come back if Freedom City has met with a calamity. So, I can be the City Lord if you want.
But I'm definitely a shopkeeper who doesn't do anything. I still have to rely on you to manage Free City. "Qin Xiao said again.
The Elf Patriarch readily agreed. "No problem, City Lord. As long as you agree to be the City Lord of Free City, it's fine."
"As for the management, just leave it to us. You can rest assured about this."
"As long as the City Lord is willing to take charge of Free City, it will be a great thing for Free City."
This matter was settled just like that. Qin Xiao didn't say anything else.
As for Qin Xiao, he was more like a stabilizing force. As long as he was around, Freedom City would be more cohesive and prestigious.
Qin Xiao also didn't have much to leave for Free City. The business of Free City was much easier now. They no longer needed to send people to Shangyong City. Many people took the initiative to come to Free City and asked to cooperate with them. Moreover, the price was very high.
Of course, all of this was because of Qin Xiao, a student of Sacred Academy. They just wanted to curry favor with him.
Qin Xiao didn't care about the business anymore. It was fine as long as there was a stable business that could support the basic expenses of Free City.
The Elf Patriarch and the others were also working hard to improve the cultivation of the future generations. However, this situation obviously couldn't be seen in a short time. It had to be a long-term development goal, so it couldn't be rushed.
Qin Xiao didn't stay in Free City for long. He was ready to leave.
Before leaving, Qin Xiao called Third Elder Yuan over.
"Third Elder Yuan, I know you are an ancient sage. I also know that you generally won't take action unless the survival of Free City is in danger."
"But there is something I really want to ask of you. I am indeed ashamed to be the City Lord, but it's really difficult to refuse your kindness. I have no choice but to continue being the City Lord. "
"You can contact me. If there is something you can't solve in Free City, you can tell me directly. If it endangers the safety of Free City, I hope you can take care of it before I rush over. "
"I'll leave it all to you."
Hearing Qin Xiao's words, Third Elder Yuan looked at Qin Xiao and hesitated for a moment before saying, "Okay, City Lord, this old servant promises you."
Qin Xiao heaved a sigh of relief when he heard Third Elder agree. He smiled and said, "Thank you!"
After settling this matter, Qin Xiao didn't stay any longer. After bidding farewell to the Elf Patriarch and the others, he left Free City with Ah Dong.
After leaving Free City, Qin Xiao went straight to Fengyun City.
He came to Fengyun City to meet Baichuan Fusu and Mister Yu. Secondly, he naturally wanted to settle accounts with the Huo brothers.
No one could touch Qin Xiao's bottom line. Once they did, they would have to pay the price.
Previously, when Huo Rong provoked him several times, Qin Xiao could just laugh it off and muddle through. He didn't care so much about it.
But this time, Qin Xiao couldn't tolerate it anymore. Since Huo Rong had touched his bottom line, he had to take it seriously.
As the top school of the Hu Clan, Fengyun Academy was supported by many clans, especially the Hu Clan, who fully endorsed Fengyun Academy.
Therefore, Fengyun Academy's status was naturally very high in the Hu Clan. Basically, its status was second only to the Hu Clan.
The strength of Fengyun Academy was undeniable. Moreover, it was close to the Hu Clan's territory, so no one dared to cause trouble at Fengyun Academy.
Although Qin Xiao was now an Extreme Revered and was a key student of Fengyun Academy, his glory as the number one on the Saint Ranking was known throughout the Immortal Realm.
