Chapter 73: Seven heroes fight for hegemony, the battle is about to begin

 Restraining the excitement in his heart, Lin Zheng's expression remained unchanged and asked tentatively: "Master, why not let me guess, is this matter related to the seven cities?"

"Oh? I didn't expect that Xiaoyou Lin knew about this, too?" The city lord was quite surprised, but there was no expression of surprise on his face.

"Master Lord, I don't say secret words in front of Mingren. This is Li Ruoshui, the daughter of the Li family in Zeshui City. I believe that he should have received the news, right? Besides, the relationship between the Tie family and the Li family in Wen family is quite good. After getting along with each other in the past few days, I naturally learned some things. Marquis Kang Zhi'ankang also told me some, so it's not surprising that he could guess this." Lin Zheng said frankly.

"Haha, Brother Lin is quick to speak. I naturally know that you know this matter in general. I invite you to come today, so I naturally want to ask what you mean."

"Please tell me in detail!"

"This is a long story. The Tianxuan Empire controls one-third of the land of the wild continent. In this continent, countless small countries exist in parallel, and these small countries often experience wars, so our seven cities are the local forces that suppress these small countries. However, our seven cities need supplies from the Tianxuan Empire every year and some resources. Each city does its best to expand its power, so a battle will be held every five years, which is what you have heard of the seven heroes fighting for hegemony!"

"Seven cities can actually suppress these small countries? I am frank, I have not seen the true strength of Wushuang City. Could it be that Wushuang City is just a sign on the surface, secretly..." Lin Zheng did not finish his remaining words, but just looked at the city lord with his eyes.

"Haha, you are smart. I don't want to reveal the specifics to you. But you only need to know that the lords of each of these seven cities have the ability to wipe out any small country affiliated with the Tianxuan Empire, and it doesn't take any effort!" Lord Kou's words were plain, but they exuded an unprecedented sense of pride.

"Well, maybe this is also the reason why the five major families in Wushuang City are afraid of the City Lord's Mansion. The strength of these major families does not seem weak, but they are very respectful in front of the City Lord. It seems that there is really hope to get close to the so-called disappearing history this time! It seems that this City Lord Kou is not as simple as it seems!" Lin Zheng said silently in his heart, then thought for a while and looked up and said, "Since the City Lord has spoken, Lin will naturally never refuse. Please give me instructions to the city lord!"

"Haha, okay, very good. In this way, Wushuang City's chances of entering the third league this year have increased a lot!" The city lord's eyes flashed with joy, and then said, "Okay, I'll talk to you in detail about the rules of the seven heroes' competition for hegemony so that you can make some preparations in advance!"

"In fact, it is very simple to compete for the seven heroes. All countries under each city will select elites to participate in this competition. These countries are actually affiliated with our seven cities. Don't be surprised. A city's strength will be stronger than some countries. After a while, you will know these things. After this competition, you will find out who will get the greatest resources in the next five years, who will expand your territory? And who can rise to the top of the imperial city directly! Who will be favored by real forces such as Six Paths? Everything will be known after this competition!"

The city lord had not finished speaking, but Lin Zheng's heart had already made huge waves and finally heard news about the Six Paths. In any case, he must participate in this competition and perform outstandingly. Only in this way can he get in touch with the real big forces in this continent and get news about the elder brother.

Lin Zhengqiang suppressed his inner excitement and listened to the city lord's narrative without leaving any trace. It was roughly some of the rules in the battle, but the city lord's speech was very simple. Anyway, there are still three months left before the battle, so these things will be urgent to talk about in the future.

"I wonder why the city lord wanted to choose us? Don't you doubt the origin of us?" Lin Zheng asked after he waited until the city lord was almost done.

"Haha, to be honest, I have found someone to check in private. You are all people in a small village at the foot of Wukong Mountain, and you are disciples of Wukong Sect. They didn't make a sound for three years, and they made a big splash. In the sect assessment, they killed Zhao Yu of the Zhao family and forced the head of the Zhao family to retreat! Later, you stayed in the village for a year and then arrived in Wushuang City. On the way, you met Luo Lingling's grandfather and killed bandits on the way. Later..." Lord Kou said the information he collected one by one. Lin Zheng did not interrupt, but just listened quietly. He could investigate these people so thoroughly in just a few days. He really couldn't underestimate the methods of Wushuang City.

"I guess your family should be a down-and-out nobleman, right?" the city lord suddenly asked.

"I didn't expect the city lord to guess it. Yes, we are in the middle of the family. We have been living at Wukong Mountain for many years. This time we came to Wushuang City, but we are just staying there for the time being. We are not satisfied with the city lord, but this time we came to create a career and revitalize the family's prestige!" Lin Zheng's words were half true, but people couldn't find any fault.

"Haha, don't worry, no matter what the outcome of this battle is, I Wushuang City will help you revive your family!" The little doubt in the eyes of Lord Kou went away, leaving Lin Zheng with a huge temptation. Of course, the premise is that Lin Zheng can really be tempted by this benefit. To revive the family's reputation, it is absolutely enough for ordinary families to have such a Wushuang City with huge power. Wushuang City, one of the seven cities, has absolute power and supports a family, is nothing to say! But how could Lord Kou think about how glory and power Lin Zheng's original family was! Even if he devoted all the Tianxuan, he might not be able to regain his glory!

Lin Zheng frowned and said calmly at the city lord, "Thank you for your kindness, I hope the city lord will help you. In addition, this time, Lin will do his best in this battle!"

"Haha, good! Very good! If you have any needs, just send someone to come, whether it is crystal stones, elixirs, secret techniques, or resources of the entire Wushuang City will be opened for you!"

These words moved Lin Zheng and Li Ruoshui. After knowing the strength of Wushuang City, the city lord could still say this, obviously asking Lin Zheng and others to speak loudly. On the one hand, it was to show their strength, and on the other hand, Shi Hui and Lin Zheng and others. From the perspective of rituals, the Wushuang City lord did nothing!

Everyone chatted for a while, but this time it was really just a chat. Lin Zheng did not directly ask about the specific strength behind Wushuang City, and the Lord of Wushuang City did not ask about Lin Zheng's strength. The three of them chatted about homely words, and Li Ruoshui responded calmly. Many things were better than Lin Zheng, an outsider. Everyone talked until noon and made some arrangements. Lin Zheng and Li Ruoshui said goodbye and left.

When they returned home, Lin Zheng called Lin Wen and others together and told everything about going to the city lord's mansion. Everyone's faces were different, but they still had a hint of joy!

"Lin Wen, you will take a look at how many crystals we still have now." Lin Zheng said.

"Well, no problem. The Tang family has already given the bets from that night party, and has added a lot of them to the original amount. This seems to be a good deal to us. It seems that it is not only the third brother's men who showed mercy that night, but I'm afraid the city lord has also done some activities in it! In this way, the crystal stone is enough for us to use it for a while!" Lin Wen thought for a while and analyzed.

"Well, that's good. It seems that the battle will be soon!" Lin Zheng said thoughtfully.

"By the way, everyone will go to seclusion and practice these days. Lin Wen, just be more busy, and have more socializing with the City Lord's Mansion. There are two Wen Tie families! The rest of the people don't have much important things to do to improve their strength. I always feel that this battle is not that simple!" Lin Zheng thought for a while and said, "The Seven Cities are much more terrifying than what we seem. If the Seven Cities divide the Tianxuan evenly, each city controls one-seventh of the Tianxuan. This seventh is a terrifying number. The population alone is worth tens of trillions. I am afraid that there are so many sects and many warrior geniuses here, and the Seven Cities can firmly control the world, which is enough to show the strength of these seven cities!"

Lin Dao, Lin Qian and Lin Wen all nodded with a serious expression, and only Lin Qin had a bitter face. For her, boring practice was not suitable for her, but she did not object. She knew that if she really encountered any danger, it would be fine if she could not help everyone. If she dragged everyone down, she would definitely not be able to forgive herself.

Alas! Forget it! Just practice it well! Lin Qin shook her little head and sighed alone.

Lin Zheng naturally knew what Lin Qin was thinking, but under such circumstances, Lin Qin could not help. After all, this is a critical step. If you can't get out of this step and cannot walk well, then your future actions will be even more difficult.

For the remaining half day, Lin Zheng met Wen Tianqing and Tiemu Zhan. Unexpectedly, these two people actually said that they would practice with the elders in the family these days, and they might not be able to come and go from time to time. However, if there was something wrong with the Lin Mansion, the two families would not refuse. Lin Zheng immediately learned that the two must have been fighting for the Seven Heroes this time. He did not hide it at the moment, so he told them about the City Lord's Mansion. Both of them were stunned for a moment, but then they were very happy. I guess that if a powerful master joins this time, Wushuang City's chance of winning is a little greater! Everyone encouraged each other, and Wen Tianqing and Tiemu Zhan bid farewell.

Even Kang Zhian rushed over after hearing the letter, one was to instruct Lin Zheng, and the other was to say goodbye. Kang Zhian's illness had been removed, and he had also entered the saint level, so Kang Zhian was about to return to the army. Kang Zhian was in a hurry, but he left all the assets in Wushuang City to Lin Zheng, fertile land, mansions, shops, and all the assets were left to Lin Zheng without leaving any of them. Lin Zheng did not refuse. Anyway, Lin Zheng looked at these things very lightly, and Kang Zhian, as a marquis and now a saint, naturally he looked at these things even lighter.

So Lin Zheng made another fortune, which almost made Old Man Luo faint. When did he see so much property? As for Luo Lingling's eyes were so excited that she immediately began to sort out all the property. Before night, Luo Lingling handed a detailed statistics form to Lin Zheng and others. Even Li Ruoshui, who came from the aristocratic family, was surprised to see the assets on the list. This time, he gained such wealth without moving. In terms of assets alone, Lin Zheng's current value is no less than that of ordinary aristocratic families.
