Seeing that no one was fishing in troubled waters this time, Game Head's expression seemed to improve. He looked at the remaining people and said, "You don't meet the conditions for my daughter to choose a Taoist companion, so you don't need to participate in the selection."
As soon as these words came out, the remaining hundred or so cultivators were a little dissatisfied. They were a little restless, but due to Game Head's strength, they didn't dare to say anything. They could only shake their heads with a pale face.
"However, since all of you have come from afar, this City Lord will definitely not let all of you come here in vain. Although all of you have lost the qualification to be selected, all of you can receive the gifts that this City Lord has prepared. Please follow the Guard Captain to receive the gifts."
As soon as Game City changed the topic, the mood of these cultivators immediately changed. All of them revealed looks of joy and excitement. In their opinion, for such a huge city like Game City, the gifts prepared by the City Lord would definitely not be too bad.
"Thank you, City Lord!"
Everyone thanked and left the courtyard with the guard of the City Lord's Mansion. Seeing this, Luo Ping and others also turned to leave. They wanted to watch the selection process, but now that they couldn't, they naturally had to leave first.
"Little brother, please wait!"
As Game Head spoke, his figure flashed and crossed the distance of more than a hundred feet in an instant, blocking in front of Luo Ping.
Luo Ping stopped and looked at City Lord Game Head in front of him. Although his heart was full of guesses and doubts, he still showed a smile on his face and said sincerely, "Greetings, City Lord. May I know why City Lord has stopped this junior?"
At this time, Zuo Qiuyi and others also stopped and looked at Luo Ping in confusion. They couldn't understand City Lord Game Head's actions.
"Hehe, little brother, don't misunderstand. It's like this. Just now, my daughter sent me a voice transmission saying that she is very interested in you and hopes that you can participate in the selection."
Game City's City Lord suddenly revealed a kind smile and explained the reason. Luo Ping couldn't help but look at the woman in the distance when he heard that.
When Fu Shuyun saw Luo Ping looking at her, a sweet smile appeared on her face. While she was walking, she said, "My father is right. I do have a good impression of you. If it's convenient for you, why don't you stay and compete with me to be my dao companion? By the way, how should I address you, fellow daoist? "
As soon as she finished speaking, Fu Shuyun walked in front of Luo Ping. She was still smiling as she waited for Luo Ping's reply.
"I am Luo Ping. Thank you for your kind intentions, City Lord and Miss. However, I have not considered looking for a Dao companion for the time being. Please forgive me."
Luo Ping said with a slight smile. Although the attitude of the two people was very polite, it made him suspicious. Why was the City Lord's daughter only interested in him when there were so many cultivators who met the requirements?
In terms of appearance and cultivation, there was nothing about him that was worthy of her attention. Luo Ping really couldn't understand why she was doing this.
Even Zuo Qiuyi and Wen Liangzhou on the side felt that something was wrong. Although Luo Ping was very strong, the cultivation he displayed was only at the early stage of the Golden Elixir. He didn't have any advantage over the other cultivators who entered the backyard.
"Oh? So, little brother, you are rejecting this City Lord's good intentions? "
Although City Lord Game Head still spoke with a very polite attitude, the coldness in his words was exposed. As a City Lord, he was very unhappy that a cultivator who was only at the Golden Elixir stage didn't give him any face.
"Please forgive me, Your Excellency!"
Luo Ping also replied politely. As soon as his voice fell, he suddenly felt that the space around him was completely sealed. A powerful pressure enveloped him in an instant, and he completely lost the freedom to move.
His expression changed. Luo Ping looked at City Lord Game Head in front of him with eyes like torches and asked coldly, "What is the meaning of this, City Lord? Do you want to force me? "
Although City Lord Game Head's cultivation was very strong, Luo Ping wasn't afraid. If his life was really threatened, he wouldn't let the other party have an easy time even if he had to expose some secrets.
Through his previous observations, Luo Ping concluded that the City Lord Game Head in front of him was definitely much stronger than Xia Youhan. After all, the scale of Game Head was about the same as Zuo Qiu City. As the City Lord, Game Head's cultivation had definitely reached the Celestial Age.
Although he wasn't afraid of the other party, Luo Ping still didn't want to fight with the other party unless it was a last resort. After all, he still had Zuo Qiuyi and the others on his side.
"Haha, little brother, you're joking again. This City Lord has never forced others. I'm just giving you some time to think about it. As for these people, I'll take them down and treat them well. When you've thought about it, this City Lord will naturally let you meet."
After listening to City Lord Game Head's words, although Luo Ping couldn't move, he could guess that Wen Liangzhou and the others must have been restricted in their movements. Moreover, City Lord Game Head wanted to take them down, ostensibly as a reception, but actually as hostages.
"Well, there's no need to think about it. I agree to participate in the selection!"
Luo Ping didn't think much and said directly. The current situation was very obvious. As long as he didn't agree, he couldn't leave. No matter what, as long as Wen Liangzhou and the others were in their hands, they had enough bargaining chips to threaten him.
Although Luo Ping was not the savior of the world, but after all, he had gone through a life and death situation with them. He couldn't just leave them behind and walk away. Moreover, even if he wanted to leave, it would be difficult to do so!
"Haha, a wise man submits to circumstances. Little brother, your awareness is very high. This City Lord admires you more and more."
City Lord Game Head laughed and walked back to Luo Ping's side. At this time, Luo Ping felt his body relax. The pressure that shrouded him was removed, and he regained his freedom.
Luo Ping turned his head and looked. Wen Liangzhou and the others had been escorted into the backyard by several guards. Looking at their appearance, their cultivation should be suppressed. He didn't know what the other party had done.
"Little brother, this way please!"
City Lord Game Head waved his hand and motioned Luo Ping to go to the backyard. After glancing at City Lord Game Head and Fu Shuyun, Luo Ping stepped forward. Although he didn't know what kind of competition was going to happen next, Luo Ping was already prepared to lose.
As long as he lost the competition, it would be impossible for him to become Fu Shuyun's Taoist companion. At that time, he believed that the other party would have nothing to say. However, he was more worried in his heart because it was very abnormal for them to pay attention to him.
In the backyard of the City Lord Mansion, the self-cultivators who came in before were all waiting under the guidance of the housekeeper. When they saw several guards escorting Wen Liangzhou and the others in, they looked at them with some doubts.
Then, when Luo Ping, City Lord Game Head and Fu Shuyun appeared, these self-cultivators' doubts turned into joy. Because the selection was about to begin, they all believed that they could be the lucky ones.
"Everyone has been waiting for a long time. Since everyone is here, this City Lord will not beat around the bush. Let's start directly."
As soon as City Lord Game Head's voice fell, a layer of light blue light shield suddenly appeared in the sky above the backyard, completely sealing off the entire backyard. Everyone was puzzled and looked at City Lord Game Head.
Even if there was a competition, there was no need to seal off the entire backyard. At this moment, all the self-cultivators felt that something was wrong.
City Lord Game Head didn't care about everyone's reaction. Instead, a light flashed in his palm and he took out a treasure. He threw it up, and the treasure gradually became bigger in the air. When it landed, it had already become a 100 feet tall altar.
Luo Ping looked around and saw that the altar was circular. In the center of the altar was a small high platform, surrounded by 81 round grooves. There was a passage under each groove that connected to the small high platform in the center.
The entire altar emitted a faint black light. After it landed on the ground, it started to move automatically. When the huge altar moved, it emitted gusts of cold wind, which made Luo Ping shudder.
City Lord Game Head looked at the altar with a strange smile on his face. Then, he looked at the self-cultivators and said, "Everyone, please get on the altar!"
These self-cultivators were puzzled by his strange words. Immediately, a self-cultivator stood out and said loudly, "What does City Lord mean by this? We are here to compete for Miss Fu's Taoist companion. What does City Lord mean by making an altar? "
"That's right. If Miss Fu doesn't want to choose a Taoist companion, let us leave. Why waste our time?" Another person said.
They had already seen that things had changed. They just wanted to leave here as soon as possible. If City Lord Game Head's cultivation wasn't too strong, they would have attacked the light shield in the sky.
"Hahaha!"
City Lord Game Head laughed and said, "You want to be my daughter's Taoist companion? You are not qualified. With your cultivation at the Golden Elixir stage, you dare to dream of such a good thing. You are really shameless."
"However, although you are just a bunch of Chachas, you are not without value. Just based on the fact that you have cultivated to the Aurous Core stage within three hundred years and are still virgins, it is enough to make you useful."
"When the day comes when I achieve great success, you will also have a share of the credit. You should be happy. Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
City Lord Game Head's words made these self-cultivators completely understand. It turned out that the news that the City Lord's daughter was going to choose a Taoist companion was just a cover. The main purpose was that the City Lord needed to cultivate some kind of Taoist skill.
Although they didn't know what kind of Taoist skill he was going to cultivate, from the tone of City Lord Game Head and the altar in front of them, they knew that it was going to be a disaster. The faces of these self-cultivators suddenly became serious.
Luo Ping stood beside City Lord Game Head and could clearly sense that the other party was a little emotional. According to the other party's cultivation, he basically wouldn't lose his composure like this. His current actions were enough to show that he was very concerned about cultivating the Taoist skill.
Luo Ping frowned, thinking about how to escape. Although there were more than 80 self-cultivators here, they were all at the Golden Elixir stage. It was estimated that they couldn't even take a blow from City Lord Game Head.
Even if City Lord Game Head wouldn't kill them for the time being in order to cultivate the Taoist skill, Luo Ping had a bad feeling when he looked at the shape of the altar. It was better to rely on oneself than on others. At a critical moment, relying on oneself was the right choice.
