"She Yangzhuo, let's leave it at that."
"Once the compensation has been paid and the various properties have been handed over, this matter will be considered settled."
"In the future, I hope the She Clan will take care of itself."
The City Lord of Light Shadow City said in a deep voice. He had secretly negotiated with the other experts, and everyone had basically agreed.
She Yangzhuo said, "Today, the compensation of one billion Heaven Dao Coins will be sent to the City Lord Residence. The other properties will also be handed over within three days!"
"Everyone, if there is nothing else, please leave. Our She Clan is going to conduct a funeral!"
The City Lord of Light Shadow City and the others quickly left. However, they didn't split up and went to the City Lord Residence together.
She Yangzhuo's interests had been ceded, but as for how to split these interests, the City Lord and the others still needed to discuss.
"My Lady, She Yangzhuo has compensated one billion Heaven Dao Coins and ceded many other properties. Is there anything that you fancy?"
Situ Yan transmitted.
Situ Yan had explained in detail all the properties ceded by the She Clan.
"Xue Ling, do a divination. Which of the properties ceded by the She Clan are better?"
Qin Yang transmitted to Xue Ling.
Xue Ling immediately did a divination.
Soon, Xue Ling said in surprise, "Young Master, ask Situ Yan to take down Silver Frost City."
"Silver Frost City?"
Information about Silver Frost City immediately appeared in Qin Yang's mind. Silver Frost City was just a small city and was the private property of the She Clan. The She Clan had one to two hundred thousand laborers here, and their main task was to mine a nearby mine.
The mine wasn't very good, and such a mining city's value was ordinary.
"Xue Ling, is there a big mine over there?"
Qin Yang asked.
On the ground of the Heaven Domain, it was extremely difficult for even a powerful person to scan deep with their divine senses. Therefore, although many experts from the She Clan might have searched that place, it might still contain precious minerals.
"No."
"My Lady, there is a ruin over there."
"The ruin is in a dimensional space, so the experts from the She Clan didn't discover it."
"The entrance is either in the mining area or deep underground of Silver Frost City."
"For now, I can't divine the exact value of that ruin. However, since I can't divine it, it means that its value isn't low," Xue Ling said confidently.
Xue Ling said confidently. She was very confident in her ability in this aspect.
Xue Ling believed that most Heavenly Axiom Divination Masters were not as good as her.
Qin Yang immediately sent a message to Situ Yan. "Situ Yan, take down Silver Frost City and the mines around it. There are relics under Silver Frost City. You don't have to fight for the other things. You can use this to make a request. Don't fight for the position of Deputy City Lord for now!"
Situ Yan was shocked. There were actually ruins in Silver Frost City.
That place wasn't considered uninhabited, and the experts of the She Clan must have searched for it. The ruins of such a place shouldn't be too bad.
"Yes, sir."
Situ Yan replied.
"Everyone, can you listen to me?"
Situ Yan said.
At this moment, the main hall was in an intense quarrel. Everyone was very united when they were cutting meat from She Yangzhuo, but this time, they were no longer united.
For the sake of benefits, some experts were already arguing until their faces and necks were red.
What demeanor of an expert? What face of a big shot? At this moment, everyone was dissatisfied. How could these things be more enticing than tangible benefits?
"What did Xiao Yan say?"
Light Shadow City Lord smiled and asked.
Situ Yan said coldly, "Everyone, I don't have to fight with everyone. Silver Frost City is close to my Redbud Army's training area. Just give me the area around Silver Frost City. However, I have a request that I hope everyone can agree to."
"Xiao Yan, please speak."
"Dao Friend Situ, please speak."
All the experts spoke out. They were pleasantly surprised.
Situ Yan was a Heavenly Dao Realm expert, and she controlled the Redbud Army. Originally, she should have taken away a lot of benefits.
The benefits at Silver Frost City weren't that great.
If Situ Yan only wanted to go there, the benefits she would get would only be one-fifth of what she should have gotten.
Since she had a smaller share, the other experts would naturally get a larger share.
Situ Yan said, "Didn't She Yangzhuo give up the position of Deputy City Lord? I request that the position of Deputy City Lord not be decided within a thousand years. "
"If it is decided within a thousand years, I will have to agree."
Some experts' eyes flashed. Situ Yan's request meant that she wanted to get her hands on the position of Deputy City Lord!
Situ Yan's strength wasn't weak. If she was given a thousand years to develop the Redbud Army and then rope in some experts, it was entirely possible for her to become the Deputy City Lord of Light Shadow City.
"City Lord, I don't think this request is a problem."
"That's right. This is acceptable."
"A thousand years isn't that long."
Most of the experts spoke out. Many of them didn't have Heavenly Dao Realm cultivation. They didn't have the qualifications to compete, so they naturally supported her. A few of them had Heavenly Dao Realm cultivation, but they knew that they didn't have any hope of competing.
"City Lord, I think it's feasible."
"It's acceptable."
Vice City Lord Tian and Vice City Lord Lu, these two heavyweights, also spoke. They were the Vice City Lords, so it didn't matter to them who became the Vice City Lord. Moreover, in their opinion, Situ Yan was easier to deal with.
If Situ Yan became Deputy City Lord, if something happened to Light Shadow City in the future, they would have a higher chance of becoming City Lord.
"Damn it."
The few experts who had the strength to compete for the position of Deputy City Lord weren't happy, even if they could get more benefits.
But in this situation, it would be useless for them to oppose.
Looking at Light Shadow City Lord's expression, he probably agreed.
"Cough, since everyone supports it, then it's decided!"
"The position of Deputy City Lord is temporarily uncertain. If it is decided within a thousand years, Xiao Yan's agreement will be required!"
Light Shadow City Lord said.
"Yes."
Everyone replied in unison.
Although the few experts who wanted to compete for the position of Deputy City Lord weren't happy, they had no choice but to agree. Otherwise, they would offend many experts. Even if they could compete for the position of Deputy City Lord, what was the point?
"Thank you, everyone. There's nothing else for me here. Please continue with the discussion."
Situ Yan left quickly.
…
She Clan …
Since the matter had been settled, the seal here was lifted, and She Yangzhuo returned to the clan.
This mansion still belonged to the She Clan.
"Geng Wenlin might have threatened Wen Xuan because he wanted to obtain benefits from him. If that was the case, he wouldn't have spread the news."
She Yangzhuo said coldly.
If Geng Wenlin only wanted money, he wouldn't have the guts. If he really did that, he would offend the She Clan.
"Clan Head, I have thought about it. There are only two possibilities for this situation."
"One is that Geng Wenlin has a blood feud with us. However, we are clear about Geng Wenlin's background. He has been following She Jinxuan since a long time ago. Furthermore, he has been hypnotized before. It shouldn't be possible for him to have a blood feud with us."
"The other possibility is that he has fallen into the hands of other experts. The other party might have gotten hold of his weakness, or they might have captured him and threatened him. Regardless of the situation, there must be other powerful experts targeting our She Clan."
The one who spoke was an old man from the She Clan. She Clan's Old Ancestor, She Zhenxiong.
She Zhenxiong's strength was at the half-step Heavenly Dao Realm.
"Old Ancestor is right."
She Yangzhuo nodded.
"No matter who is targeting our She Clan, that person must die!"
She Yangzhuo was filled with killing intent.
The price that the She Clan had paid this time was too great. If they didn't find out who the enemy was, She Yangzhuo and the others would have a huge knot in their hearts.
If this knot wasn't removed, She Yangzhuo and the others' growth in strength would be limited.
"Clan Head, there is news from the City Lord Residence. Situ Yan only wants a small amount of benefits. She wants to delay the Deputy City Lord election for a thousand years. She has the intention to fight for the position. In the past, she didn't have a good relationship with us. Could it be her?"
The She Clan's Second Elder said. He was in charge of the She Clan's intelligence work. There were also people from the City Lord Residence who were communicating with him.
"Situ Yan?"
She Yangzhuo shook his head. "Our conflict with her shouldn't have caused her to act so crazily. Furthermore, even if she delayed the election, she only has the hope of becoming the Deputy City Lord. The one with the highest chance of becoming the Deputy City Lord wouldn't be her!"
She Zhenxiong said, "To target our She Clan, there must be a more meticulous plan. Situ Yan has only become a Heavenly Dao Realm expert for such a long time. She definitely wouldn't have known that she could become a Heavenly Dao Realm expert."
"Among the dozen or so Heavenly Dao Realm experts, her suspicion should be the smallest."
The others nodded.
"That is true."
The She Clan's Second Elder nodded.
She Yangzhuo frowned and said, "It is very likely that the enemy isn't an expert from our Light Shadow City. This Seat has killed many experts from the human race. It is possible that this is an act of revenge by a human expert! However, it just so happened that they found Geng Wenlin. This is a little strange. "
"If the enemy wants to obtain some evidence, why didn't they find Jin Xuan directly, but Geng Wenlin instead? Geng Wenlin's strength is stronger than Jin Xuan's. "
The She Clan's Second Elder said, "Clan Head, Jin Xuan and the others beat up someone on the street. Could that person's identity be extraordinary?"
"Jin Xuan's identity is higher, so he first captured Geng Wenlin for revenge. In the end, he found out something from Geng Wenlin?"
She Yangzhuo pondered. This possibility wasn't small.
"Investigate that person's identity."
"Don't give up on the other clues!"
She Yangzhuo said solemnly.
