"Congratulations Chief Blue Horn for obtaining first place in the assessment." A woman walked over with a face full of joy. She was Night Dew, who reminded Lan Xiaobu in the resthouse and wanted to join the Great Desolate God Corner.
"Night Dew, thank you. This is?" Lan Xiaobu looked at the man beside Night Dew. This person had slightly dark skin and was at the peak of the Heavenly God Stage. From the looks of it, he could step into the God Monarch Stage at any time. Of course, the prerequisite was that he had sufficient cultivation resources. Lan Xiaobu guessed that this should be Night Dew's dao companion.
When the man saw Lan Xiaobu looking at him, he hurriedly bowed and said, "Xiong Nanfeng greets Chief Blue Horn. Night Dew and I are dao companions. Congratulations Chief Blue Horn for obtaining first place in the assessment."
Although his cultivation was much higher than Lan Xiaobu, Lan Xiaobu could feel that Xiong Nanfeng was very nervous when he spoke to him. From the looks of it, Night Dew and Xiong Nanfeng should be in charge of Night Dew.
"Many thanks. After this assessment, we will be returning to the Great Desolate God Corner. If the two of you don't mind, follow me to the Great Desolate God Corner." Lan Xiaobu sent out a formal invitation.
He had secretly offended the various God Court Kings of the God World. Adding an additional Gengjia God Gate wouldn't be a big deal. Moreover, if the Great Desolate God Corner wanted to develop, it would be targeted sooner or later. If he was afraid, he wouldn't have asked for the Great Desolate God Corner.
"Many thanks Chief Blue Horn …" Night Dew and Xiong Nanfeng were overjoyed and hurriedly bowed.
They had nowhere to go now. To be able to go to the Great Desolate God Corner with Lan Xiaobu was simply sending charcoal in snowy weather.
Kuang Jue laughed and said, "Congratulations Brother Xiao Bu for obtaining two more strong generals. The Dao Monarch has already sent a message for you to meet him. Let's go, we will go together."
"Alright, please lead the way, Brother Kuang." Lan Xiaobu smiled. When Kuang Jue said that Night Dew and Xiong Nanfeng were strong generals, there was an element of flattery in it. Only Lan Xiaobu knew that if Night Dew and Xiong Nanfeng were Grade 3 God Smiths, then they would be strong generals that would be popular wherever they went.
…
Lan Xiaobu followed Kuang Jue to the City Lord's Mansion, which made Lan Xiaobu somewhat suspicious. There should be a special place for Dao Monarch to meet him. Why did he come to the City Lord's Mansion?
"Dao Lord, Lan Xiaobu is here." Kuang Jue brought Lan Xiaobu to a guest hall and didn't enter.
Shu Xiangxiao's voice came from inside. "Lan Xiaobu, come in."
After Lan Xiaobu entered the main hall, he saw five people. He recognized two of them, Daojun Uncle Wang Xiao, whom he had spoken to before. There was also the First Court Pillar, Roy, whom he had met before. As for the other three people, he did not recognize them. Lan Xiaobu guessed that one of them should be the City Lord.
"Lan Xiaobu greets you, Daolord. Greetings to the First Court Pillar. Greetings to the three seniors." Lan Xiaobu walked into the palace, then bowed in a very respectful manner.
Shu Xiangxiao laughed. "Lan Xiaobu, please take a seat."
"Many thanks, Dao Lord." Lan Xiaobu didn't stand on ceremony. He walked to a seat and sat down.
"I have high hopes for you. Unfortunately, you don't recognize me. Let me introduce myself. My name is Qi Kaishang. I'm the Commander of the Guiheng Divine Court's Five Armies." A robust man saw Lan Xiaobu, laughed, and took the initiative to introduce himself.
Lan Xiaobu hurriedly stood up to greet him. He felt that this Qi Kaishang was stronger than Jun Wu, and it wasn't just by a little. When he came in to greet the five people, Roy and Qi Kaishang had nodded to him. However, the other two didn't move.
Seeing that the other two didn't move, Dao Monarch Shu Xiangxiao took the initiative to say, "These two are Gong Shu Chiyue and Xuan Fu."
However, he didn't introduce their positions.
When Lan Xiaobu saw that Gong Shu Chiyue and Xuan Fu still didn't move, he also sat there without moving. His cultivation level was slightly lower, but from today onwards, he was also a Horn Elder. Since others looked down on him, there was no need for him to be friendly to them.
Besides, he didn't intend to mingle in the Guiheng Divine Court's officialdom, so there was no need to wrong himself.
Qi Kaishang had a different opinion of Lan Xiaobu. After all, only in front of him did Lan Xiaobu stand up to greet him. Gong Shu Chiyue usually had his eyes on his forehead, but the Blue Horn Elder didn't care about him.
"Blue Horn Elder, this Gong Shu Chiyue is not ordinary. This person is a Divine Weapon Refining Master who can refine a level-six divine artifact." Qi Kaishang seemed to deliberately show his status and deliberately mentioned Gong Shu Chiyue. In other words, he had received Lan Xiaobu's greeting, but Gong Shu Chiyue hadn't even received a response from Lan Xiaobu.
Shu Wangxiao also smiled and said, "Commander Qi is right. Master Gong Shu can refine a top-notch level-six divine artifact. If you have enough materials, you can even refine a level-seven divine artifact. If you form a good relationship now, you will benefit endlessly in the future. "
"Many thanks for the advice, Dao Lord." Lan Xiaobu quickly stood up again, but he didn't care about Gong Shu Chiyue.
A level-six divine artifact? He he, he really didn't care about it. No matter how good you were at refining, could you compare to Nian? Nian was in the Great Desolate Divine Horn. Besides, Shu Wangxiao had said that with enough materials, one could barely refine a level-seven divine artifact. It was obvious that this fella would waste a lot of materials to refine a level-seven divine artifact. How could he be interested in such a Divine Weapon Refining Master?
Gong Shu Chiyue said faintly, "I don't have that much free time. I can help refine artifacts for anyone who comes to ask me."
Lan Xiaobu, who didn't want to continue wasting time here, said to Shu Wangxiao, "I wonder if you have any instructions for me?"
Upon hearing that Lan Xiaobu didn't care about him at all, Gong Shu Chiyue's expression turned extremely ugly.
Shu Wangxiao laughed and said, "Lan Xiaobu, I think highly of you. Do you know why I'm meeting you here?"
Lan Xiaobu shook his head blankly. "I don't know."
Shu Wangxiao stopped smiling. "This place is the Dao City of the Guiheng Divine Court, the City Lord Mansion of the Yuheng Divine Dao City. However, the Yuheng Divine Dao City doesn't have a City Lord now, so the City Lord Mansion is empty. If you are willing, I can appoint you as the next City Lord of the Yuheng Divine Dao City. "
The next City Lord of the Divine Court Dao City? Lan Xiaobu was shocked. He wasn't happy. Instead, he was thinking about what he had exposed during the assessment.
"Dao Lord?" Luo Yi, who was shocked, hurriedly wanted to speak. Besides Luo Yi, Gong Shu Chiyue, Xuan Fu, and even Qi Kaishang wanted to stand up and say something.
Shu Wangxiao waved his hand and stopped everyone from speaking. He just looked at Lan Xiaobu and waited for Lan Xiaobu's answer.
Lan Xiaobu stood up and bowed respectfully. "Thank you for taking a fancy to me, Dao Lord. However, my cultivation level is too low and I'm used to being free. If I stay in the Yuheng Divine Dao City as the City Lord, I will definitely make a mess of the Yuheng Divine Dao City and discredit you. "
Disappointment flashed across Shu Wangxiao's eyes before he nodded to the rest.
Luo Yi and the rest stood up and took their leave.
Lan Xiaobu's heart was beating like a drum. What was the meaning of this? Was it because he didn't agree and they wanted to kill him? That wasn't right. Anyone here could kill him with one hand. There was no need to be so secretive.
After everyone left, Shu Wangxiao looked at Lan Xiaobu and said, "Lan Xiaobu, I know that you must be hiding a huge secret. Not only that, but you are also a person with great luck. My original plan was to let you become the City Lord of the Yuheng Divine Dao City. When you grew up, I would let you take over the Guiheng Divine Court. Now, I know that your ambitions are probably very big. "
Hearing this, Lan Xiaobu felt a chill down his spine. The other party was a God King Dao Lord. He could kill him with one slap. At this moment, Lan Xiaobu felt that he was so insignificant. His life was completely out of his control.
Shu Wangxiao continued, "If it was any other Dao Lord, I reckon that your soul would have been searched. However, my Shu Wangxiao disdains doing such things. I only admire you. Since you wish to choose the Great Desolation God Corner as your base, I will help you. This is my identity jade talisman. In the future, if anyone wants to cause trouble in the Great Desolation God Corner, you can activate it. I can help you three times. "
As he spoke, Shu Wangxiao took out a purple jade talisman and handed it to Lan Xiaobu.
Lan Xiaobu hurriedly took the jade talisman and thanked him, "Thank you, Dao Lord. Lan Xiaobu will definitely remember this kindness."
Shu Wangxiao nodded and took out a ring. He handed it to Lan Xiaobu and said, "This is the reward you received from this test. Take it with you."
Lan Xiaobu thanked him once again and took the ring. He put it away and said, "If Dao Lord needs Lan Xiaobu to do anything in the future, please feel free to let me know. Regardless of whether I, Lan Xiaobu, am able to do it, I, Lan Xiaobu, will definitely not forget today's kindness. I will do my best."
"Alright, you can leave first. I hope that you can manage the Great Desolation God Corner well." Shu Wangxiao nodded.
He didn't mind Lan Xiaobu's words. He could see that Lan Xiaobu would be extraordinary in the future. That was the future. This future could be 100,000 years later or even a million years later. If anything happened to Shu Wangxiao now, Lan Xiaobu wouldn't be able to help him.
"Yes." Lan Xiaobu bowed and left the guest hall.
When he walked out of the City Lord Mansion, Lan Xiaobu felt that his shirt was drenched in sweat. If Shu Wangxiao had any bad intentions, he, Lan Xiaobu, would not be here today.
In other words, if it wasn't Shu Wangxiao, but Dan Ting or another Dao Lord, Lan Xiaobu's life would have been gone.
A gentleman would not stand under a collapsing wall. His participation in this test was equivalent to standing under a collapsing wall.
However, Lan Xiaobu quickly put this matter aside. If he had to do it again, there were some things that he would have to do.
It was just like how he killed Meng Ou. Killing Meng Ou was equivalent to putting himself under a collapsing wall. However, could he not kill Meng Ou?
There were things that a man could do and there were things that he couldn't do. If he lived a lowly life, why bother cultivating?
He would remember Shu Wangxiao's kindness today. If there was an opportunity in the future, he would repay Shu Wangxiao. As for the life-saving purple talisman that Shu Wangxiao had given him, Lan Xiaobu had no intention of using it. Unless he was on the verge of death, he definitely wouldn't use this life-saving purple talisman.
If he didn't use this purple talisman, he could still look at Shu Wangxiao as equals. If he used this purple talisman, then when the two of them met again, he could only look up at him.
