There are a total of twenty forces in eight towns, including twelve aristocratic families and eight small sects. Now, the backbone of each force is concentrated in the City Lord's Mansion. You can imagine how lively it is here.
The heads of various aristocratic families and the sect leaders of various sects, whether they knew each other or not, and whether they were friends or enemies in normal times, were all greeting each other with smiles on their faces at this moment.
This is also normal. Although these small forces each occupy their own side, in front of the Lord of Yifeng City, they are considered as ministers of the same palace, so naturally they will live in harmony on the surface.
In such a lively occasion, Ye Dong watched his grandfather, uncle, and third uncle maneuver among the crowd, and he secretly admired them. He was afraid that he would never be able to achieve this kind of all-around social skills.
However, Ye Dong also noticed that several of his elders were quite prestigious among these people. At least on the surface, most people were polite and respectful to the people of the Ye family.
Obviously, this is naturally because the Ye family is relatively strong, especially Ye Yuanjun. Although there are seven or eight masters of the tenth level spiritual seal among the eight towns, if we want to rank them, Ye Yuanjun deserves to be the first!
In addition, just as Ye Yuanjun told Ye Dong before coming, among the second generation disciples, Ye Yuntian, who is at the peak of the ninth level spiritual seal, is also the well-deserved number one!
In fact, if Ye Dong's father Ye Yunfei was still alive, given time, his achievements would definitely surpass Ye Yuntian's and even condense ten levels of spiritual seals.
Nowadays, among the three generations of disciples, Ye Dong is also well-known. Especially in the competition between the three major families, he defeated Lin Yifan, who had seven levels of spiritual seals, with one move, which attracted even more attention.
Among the first, second and third generations, the Ye family is the leader, and that is why the Ye family has such a status.
However, this is also the reason why the Luo Lin family did not hesitate to take risks to kill Ye Dong. There are many talents in the Ye family. If Ye Dong is allowed to grow up, the entire Yifeng City, let alone Qiuye Town, will be destroyed in the future.
It became the Ye family’s world.
When Ye Dong was looking at everyone, he suddenly felt as if someone was watching him secretly. He turned his eyes slightly and found that there was a young man not far away, looking at him with an indifferent expression.
"Who is this?" Ye Dong didn't recognize him, but Ye Ming heard Ye Dong's voice and followed Ye Dong's gaze and said, "Oh, he is Zhao Zhiwei from the Zhao family in Qingfeng Town. Although
He was defeated by me in the past, but now, it is said that he has reached the eighth level of spiritual seal, and I am no longer his opponent!"
It turned out that this was the Zhao Zhiwei that his grandfather told him to be careful when he met him, but Ye Ming's words made Ye Dong interested: "Brother, have you fought against him?"
"Yes." Ye Ming nodded and said: "When the previous city lord took office, there was a competition among the eight towns, and I fought against him. Although he was two years older than me, he and I were both the same at that time.
The sixth-level spiritual seal was defeated by me in the end. Now, several years later, I didn't expect that he was already the eighth-level spiritual seal, while I only had the seventh-level spiritual seal."
There was a hint of self-deprecation in Ye Ming's voice. It was really uncomfortable to see people who were inferior to him in the past now better than him.
"Brother, don't worry, you are not far from the eighth level spiritual seal. I believe you will be stronger than him in the future!"
"hehe!"
Regarding Ye Dong's comfort, Ye Ming just laughed. He knew better than anyone else that he could reach the seventh level of spiritual seal at the age of twenty. Although it cannot be said to be the pinnacle of cultivation, if he wants to condense the eighth level of spiritual seal, I am afraid there is no one.
It can’t be done in ten or eight years!
At this time, a burst of laughter suddenly sounded, and today's official leader, the new city lord Di Qing, finally appeared in front of everyone.
People feel refreshed during happy events. Di Qing changed into a new set of clothes and looked even more high-spirited.
Although Di Qing is only a master of the tenth level spiritual seal, who made him an outer disciple of the Jiuxian Sect? Only with the support of the Jiuxian Sect can he secure his position as the city lord.
Seeing Di Qing, everyone hurriedly came forward to congratulate them, and Di Qing responded with a smile on his face. However, when he saw Ye Yuanjun, Di Qing specially bowed to Ye Yuanjun and saluted: "The head of the Ye family is also here in person.
It’s over!”
In response to Di Qing's salute to Ye Yuanjun, everyone around him already understood that the Jiu Xian Sect looked at the Ye family in a different light!
Others were fine, but the Luo and Lin families who lived in Qiuye Town felt uncomfortable.
Ye Yuanjun was also a little surprised. He didn't expect that Di Qing would give face to the Ye family in this way. He hurriedly stepped forward, grabbed Di Qing's arms with both hands and said: "Lord City Lord, you are really embarrassing Ye. Please get up quickly!"
Di Qing straightened up, saw Ye Dong in the crowd, smiled at Ye Dong and nodded, and Ye Dong also smiled in response, finally feeling at ease.
However, Ye Dong was curious in his heart, why he didn't see Yan Sou and Jiu Sou.
After the greetings were completed, under Di Qing's arrangement, everyone entered the hall that had been prepared. A sumptuous banquet had been prepared there, and it was already noon, and it was time to eat.
The heads of various aristocratic families and the heads of various sects sat at the head table at two tables, while others based on their family sects occupied the second seats.
After everyone was seated, Di Qing picked up a glass of wine and said to everyone: "Everyone, from today on, Di Qing will become the city lord of Yifeng City. However, Di Qing is young, and all the family heads and sects here are considered Di Qing's elders.
, if Di Qing did anything wrong, I hope you can forgive me, Di Qing thanks you in advance!"
After finishing speaking, drink it all in one gulp.
Naturally, everyone stood up one after another. After a few polite words, they picked up the wine glasses in front of them and drank them all in one gulp.
Next, the banquet began, and everyone took turns coming forward to propose a toast to Di Qing, but Di Qing refused to accept anyone who came and drank until the glass was empty.
As expected of a member of the Jiuxian sect, after drinking dozens of glasses of wine in a row, he behaved like a normal person and did not appear drunk at all.
After everyone paid their respects to Di Qing, Di Qing actually walked up to Ye Dong with a wine glass and said with a smile: "Brother Ye, I am offering this glass of wine to you on behalf of my uncle!"
Most people don't understand the meaning of Di Qing's words. Why did Ye Dong successfully establish a friendship with Di Qing's uncle?
Only the Luo and Lin families knew it.
Regardless of knowing it or not, seeing the city lord actually take the initiative to toast Ye Dong was enough to make everyone envious.
Ye Dong never expected that Di Qing would respect him in front of so many people. He stood up in a hurry and said, "Don't take it seriously. Don't take it seriously."
After drinking, Ye Dong asked casually: "By the way, why didn't you see the two seniors? Have they gone back?"
Di Qing had a wry smile on his face and said, "They didn't go back, but, alas, you'll know in a moment!"
Di Qing's words made Ye Dong feel a little confused. Since the two seniors Jiu Sou and Yan Sou were still in Yifeng City, why didn't they show up on such an important day today?
At this time, a servant suddenly rushed to Di Qing and whispered a few words in his ear. After listening, Di Qing's expression suddenly changed and he didn't bother to say hello to everyone.
He hurried out following the servant.
Although the servant spoke very softly, Ye Dong's hearing was extremely sensitive. He heard what the servant said: "City Lord, it's bad, Master Yang from the Luoying Sect is here!"
