Chapter 1373: The Biggest Joke in the World!

Chapter 1373: The Biggest Joke in the World!

Luo Xiang, Luo Fu, and company’s deaths had caused much turbulence in the Divine Eagle City. Furthermore, the remaining clansmen of both clans did not have the right to know who had killed them. They were only told that their leaders had fallen; even their bodies had not been brought back.

Almost all the God Kings in both clans had headed out with their leaders and perished; only a few God Kings were left holding the fort. This time, everyone in both clans had been very flustered and panicky while all the other clans big and small in the city were uneasy as well. The passing of the clan heads and the formidable martial artists of the two clans signified that the Divine Eagle City was going to experience upheaval.

Hence, once the news had spread that a new City Lord was coming, almost everyone important in the city had turned up. Everyone wanted to see who the new City Lord was. They all wanted to cozy up to him as soon as possible. After all, the Divine Eagle City was within the Earth Emanations Domain while the local government forces were made up of the Earth Emanations Army. The City Lord was the ruler on paper.

No one expected that Xiao Leng would come and had even brought Jiang Yi back with him.

Could it be that Xiao Leng was the new City Lord?

This thought surfaced in many people’s minds but was swiftly dismissed. A puny Divine Eagle City would never be enough for a Heaven Emanations Realm formidable martial artist. Many people had also thought that perhaps Jiang Yi was the new City Lord. However, this frightened them immensely. How could a mere Heaven God become the City Lord? That would be the biggest joke in the world!

Xiao Leng looked coldly at everyone present and seeing that many were in a daze, his rather ugly face darkened as he snorted and said, “Are all of you blind? Hurry up and greet the new City Lord!”

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The faces of the formidable martial artists from the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan and the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan became ghastly instantly. Even more people had shock in their eyes. Others, however, reacted instantly as they genuflected and said, “Greetings to Lord Xiao Leng, Greetings to the City Lord.”

How could it be that Jiang Yi had become the new City Lord?

Luo Mei looked thunderstruck as her body quivered, and she almost collapsed. She was the spy that the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan had embedded within the Demon-Killing Pavilion. This time, she had thought that Jiang Yi was never going to survive his mission. However, she did not expect that all the formidable martial artists from the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan that had gone out had perished, with Jiang Yi even becoming the new City Lord?

Numerous members from the Battle God Pavilion Luo Clan and Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan still could not believe what they heard. Although Commander Liu and company did not know what exactly had happened, they were overjoyed. Jiang Yi was a disciple of the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Now that he had become the Divine Eagle City Lord, the status of the Demon-Killing Pavilion in the Divine Eagle City would be elevated immensely. They could then go up against or even suppress the Earth Emanations Pavilion and the Battle God Pavilion and become the new overlords.

The Demon-Killing Pavilion’s position had always been very awkward; they were much weaker than the Battle God Pavilion while the Earth Emanations Pavilion governed this place with the Earth Emanations Sovereign wielding much power. Hence, all the Demon-Killing Pavilion Branches throughout the Earth Emanations Domain all felt as if they were being caught in the middle and unable to move freely. Many Demon-Killing Pavilion Branches had all been pressured by the local Earth Emanations Pavilion and Battle God Pavilion Branches; they could not raise their heads high.

Jiang Yi looked at the masses kneeling in front of him; his face did not reveal much delight. Jiang Yi had never been one who thirsted for power. If not, he would have become the Supreme Thearch in the Stellarsky Domain already. For Jiang Yi, real strength was the most important. Without strength—even if he was made the Earth Emanations Sovereign, that would be useless.

“All rise!”

Jiang Yi waved his hand as his gaze looked towards Commander Liu and said, “Those from the Demon-Killing Pavilion, remain. All others are dismissed.”

Jiang Yi’s authority had not been established while his voice had not been that loud. Hence, many people were still kneeling down, hesitant as to what to do next. Suddenly, killing intent surged in Xiao Leng as he roared, “Are all of you asking for death? City Lord Jiang had been personally appointed by Lord Mo Lingqiu. Whoever dares to defy his wishes will be going against Lord Mo! Scram!”

Xiao Leng did not know that Jiang Yi’s City Lord position had been given by Xiao Hong; he was only narrating what he had heard from Xiao Hong.

This roar frightened everyone silly. Who was Mo Lingqiu? He was the spokesman of the Earth Emanations Sovereign, one of the most powerful men in the Earth Emanations Domain. Almost immediately, nearly ten thousand people stood up at once and flew in all directions. Within a few seconds, everyone had disappeared from view aside from the Demon-Killing Pavilion Assistant Pavilion Lord and eight other Demon-Killing Pavilion commanders including Commander Liu.

The Demon-Killing Pavilion Branch Lord was not around; the Assistant Pavilion Lord Lu Hong brought Commander Liu and company and approached. However, they did not know how to greet Jiang Yi. After all, Jiang Yi’s rank was much lower than theirs; he wasn’t even a Demon-Killing Battle General. However, he was now the Divine Eagle City Lord.

Lu Hong deliberated for a while and finally decided to bow. He said, “Congratulations to City Lord Jiang on becoming the lord of this city. This is a wondrous matter for the Demon-Killing Pavilion. I will immediately report this matter to the Earth Emanations Domain General Pavilion and request for a reward to be bestowed onto you. Of course… if City Lord Jiang wishes to leave the Demon-Killing Pavilion and join the Earth Emanations Pavilion, we will not stop you as well.”

“There is no need!”

Jiang Yi waved his hand and looked towards Commander Liu, saying, “That day, Commander Liu and my brothers in the Demon-Killing Pavilion had rallied to save my life. Since that moment, I had sworn that I will live and die as a member of the Demon-Killing Pavilion. I would like to ask all of you to come with me to discuss how to take over the Divine Eagle City.”

The Divine Eagle City and the Divine Eagle Tribe were huge; Jiang Yi did not know how to manage and did not want to manage them. He trusted the people from the Demon-Killing Pavilion, and he intended for Commander Liu and company to help him with this task.

However, speaking of his accommodations, Jiang Yi actually did not know where he was going to reside from now on. He looked at Xiao Leng and asked, “Lord Xiao Leng, where will I be staying at?”

“You can just call me Xiao Leng. I have been ordered to protect City Lord Jiang; the word ‘Lord’ is not suitable for me!”

Xiao Leng replied respectfully. He looked towards the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan’s castle and said, “Now that you have become the City Lord, you will naturally stay within the City Lord Manor. The Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan no longer has the right to stay there. Also, it seems that the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan and City Lord Jiang have some animosity? Since Luo Xiang and company have died, could City Lord Jiang give me some face and spare the remaining clan members? The Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan is after all a vassal of the Xiao Clan.”

After Luo Xiang, Luo Qingyan, Luo Fu, and the others were killed; Jiang Yi’s hatred towards the two clans had also diminished. Jiang Yi also was not used to killing the old, weak, young, and women. Furthermore, to do so would mean he had to enlist the help of Xiao Leng and the Demon-Killing Pavilion. Jiang Yi was not used to relying too much on others. Hence, he nodded and said, “Alright. Please ask the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan people to leave. Commander Liu, you and the others can follow me to the City Lord Manor.”

“Yes!”

Commander Liu’s face was radiating. He never thought that saving Jiang Yi’s life that day would be such a blessing to him.

As expected, after everyone had entered the great hall of the City Lord Manor, the first order Jiang Yi made was to designate Commander Liu as the Assistant City Lord to be in charge of all affairs in the city.

Lu Hong looked at Commander Liu enviously and seemed to regret not taking care of Jiang Yi more back then. If not, such an honor would have gone to him instead of Commander Liu.

Jiang Yi did not know Lu Hong or the others at all. He waited for Xiao Leng to leave and take care of the Earth Emanations Pavilion Luo Clan matter as he gestured, “All of you can go back first. I only require Commander Liu to stay behind.”

Lu Hong and company reluctantly left. Jiang Yi sat down as he nursed a slight headache. He looked at Commander Liu and said, “We are the Demon-Killing Pavilion; will there be a problem taking control over the Divine Eagle City? Will the Earth Emanations Army members not submit to our jurisdiction?”

“No way!”

Commander Liu said very confidently. “The Earth Emanations Army and the Earth Emanations Pavilion are separately governed; the Earth Emanations Army only takes orders from the City Lord. They would not care if you are from the Demon-Killing Pavilion or the Battle God Pavilion. As long as the Earth Emanations Army is under your control, everything else would be easy to handle in comparison. Furthermore, City Lord, you had been personally appointed by Lord Mo Lingqiu; who would dare to defy him?”

“That’s good!”

Jiang Yi nodded and said, “Please hurry up and take full control of the Divine Eagle City. Also… what are the benefits of becoming the City Lord?”

“…”

Commander Liu was a very small person. His head and eyes were very small as well. At that moment, he actually rolled his eyes such that his pupils could not even be seen. He was almost at a loss for words when he said, “The entire city is yours. With regard to the benefits, there will be daily taxation worth up to at least ten thousand divine roots. With divine roots… you can purchase all sorts of cultivation treasures and can enter powerful mystic realms. You can also cultivate your own soldiers.

“Within a year, I would be able to help you build your personal army! Furthermore, all the clans big and small within the city would have to act with your permission and blessing. Wait and see. Sooner or later, many clans would come and visit you; you would be tired just from receiving gifts…”
