Chapter 1198: The Lord of Guangming City
"But please forgive us, senior!"
Emperor Guangwu knelt in the front, and the other four old men in black knelt in the back. They originally wanted to kneel in the front, but Song Yu disagreed and said they were not worthy!
"As the ruler of a country, you have to be restrained everywhere. You, the Guangwu Divine Emperor, have a great reputation."
Song Yu did not hide the mockery in his eyes, and mocked the God Emperor Guangwu unscrupulously!
"What the senior said is absolutely true!"
Emperor Guangwu did not dare to show any displeasure and could only nod slightly in agreement.
"I know why you came here. The reason why the Void God Mountain was split in half was because of my arrival."
Song Yu said it directly, which made Emperor Guangwu not know how to respond for a moment. No one expected that Song Yu would say it so directly.
"Our East Asian Shenzhou is mainly composed of countries. All forces are countries. There are three most powerful empires. Our Guangwu Empire can only be ranked in the middle and lower among them. It's a pity that the Godless Mountain cracked, causing many empires to know the news..."
Having said that, he was silent for a moment, raised his head and looked at Song Yu cautiously. Although he had guessed it before, Song Yu's active statement was completely different from his own guess.
A guess is just a guess after all!
"Everything remains the same. You are my pawn and I will help you consolidate your rule!"
"Just consider it an exchange of interests. After all, I killed your imperial teacher."
Song Yu said that he needed someone to stand in the open, and Emperor Guangwu God was naturally the most suitable person. If he stood in the open, those people would definitely not dare to act rashly. However, Emperor Guangwu God was completely different!
"Su Zaile was so blind that he provoked the senior. He deserves to die. I have already sent people to kill all nine generations of the Su family."
Song Yu nodded, and the Nine Heavens Magic Ring in his hand flickered slightly. The next moment, the Heroic Soul Blade slowly flew out of the Nine Heavens Magic Ring. "This is the Heroic Soul Blade, the pinnacle of the ultimate imperial weapon. With its help, no one can hurt you at all!"
The Blade of Heroic Soul itself contains extremely rich rune power. After all, it is the soul of an ancestor of the ancient elves, although that ancestor was a fallen elf.
"Thank you for the gift, Senior..."
Emperor Guangwu was so excited that he thought Song Yu was going to give him the Blade of Heroic Soul, so he opened his mouth to thank him.
"..."
Song Yu raised his hand and glared, "I'm only lending you the Blade of Heroic Soul temporarily, you must return it!"
Although Song Yu had taken away many rune insights from the Blade of Heroes Soul, some of them were left and not completely taken away. Therefore, the Blade of Heroes Soul was still of great use to Song Yu.
Hearing this, Emperor Guangwu quickly shrank his neck, feeling quite embarrassed, "I am the junior who has been presumptuous, please forgive me, senior!"
Song Yu didn't care about these, he just waved his hand, "You four, since you are the An Anwei's men, you should obey your Majesty instead of controlling him."
Song Yu waved his hand and issued taboos directly on the four people.
"From now on, Emperor Guangwu is your master. You must not disobey him. If you do, I will kill you without mercy!"
The elder who had fainted also woke up slowly and was forced to kneel on the ground by the other two elders. He was still confused, but he soon realized the situation in front of him, which was extremely unfavorable for them.
But before they could even open their mouths, Song Yu forcefully imposed taboos on them, forcing them to submit to the God Emperor Guangwu.
At this moment, there was news about four more people in Emperor Guangwu's mind.
Of course, there is one more way to truly control the four dark guard elders!
"Thank you, senior!"
Although the Heroic Soul Blade was only loaned to him, he had four thugs at the supreme level. This was an unprecedented benefit for Emperor Guangwu. You know, before, when facing the Dark Guard Elder, he even had to salute, which made him extremely aggrieved.
Moreover, if he fails to handle it properly, he may be deposed from his position as emperor!
He had finally become the emperor, but was pulled down just like that. Naturally, he was unwilling to accept that!
"Well, go ahead. I don't need to say anything more about what to do next, right?"
Song Yu chuckled, and a subtle smile gradually appeared at the corners of his eyes.
"Don't worry, senior. I will!"
The God Emperor Guangwu slowly turned around and quickly left the City of Light with the four secret guards!
Until they left, the businessman who had already collapsed on the ground was gasping for breath!
Gosh! !
What did they just see? !
Emperor Guangwu!
The emperor of their Guangwu Empire, now, actually...actually knelt down to the "murderer" in front of him?
In fact, we should be extremely grateful to them!
Their worldview almost completely collapsed at this moment. They were confused and puzzled. All kinds of complicated emotions condensed in their hearts at this moment!
But they didn't dare to ask. After all, Song Yu never took the initiative to talk to them from beginning to end. He just called them over.
"Now they're gone, it's our turn now."
Song Yu smiled and turned to look at everyone.
"Everyone, do you want the position of the Lord of Bright City?"
The position of the Lord of Guangming City?
Several people looked at each other, not daring to speak for a moment. They had never thought that the position of city lord would fall into their hands!
After all, most of the people present were businessmen, who focus on profit and do not know how to manage a city!
But they also know that if they can obtain the position of the Lord of Bright City, the benefits they will gain will be more than a thousand times what they have gained so far, which is extremely terrifying!
The profits gained from corruption alone...
It's an astronomical figure!
Unthinkable!
Everyone was thinking about this, but finally a younger businessman took the initiative to speak and asked cautiously, "Excuse me, sir, how can I become the master of this city?"
"Manage Guangming City well. The former city lord has committed heinous crimes and is not conducive to the development of Guangming City. If you want to be the city lord of Guangming City, you must work with the people and manage all places well. You are not allowed to do anything wrong!"
"If the city lord breaks the law, he will be punished just like the common people. If you disobey me, I will come and kill your entire clan!"
"Understood!"
After realizing that being the city lord didn't seem that easy, they naturally had no desire to be the lord. After all, they only saw the disadvantages and had to practice with the people...
For these businessmen, everything is based on their own interests. As for other civilians, whether they live or die, what does it have to do with them?
"There are endless immortal veins within the Void Divine Mountain. After the matter is resolved, these immortal veins will all belong to Bright City. As for how to distribute them, you can discuss it among yourselves. But if I find out that you have committed murder because of this, I will not let any of you go!"
There was a hint of undetectable murderous intent in Song Yu's calm voice, which startled everyone slightly. At the same time, they also felt unprecedented benefits from it!
An immortal vein is of great benefit to any force!
The benefits it can bring are unprecedented and are benefits that they cannot ignore!
Looking at the entire Guangwu Empire, there is a fairy vein at the top of the earth, and they discovered it not long ago, but it gave birth to four supreme beings and one emperor. This shows the benefits that a top-level fairy vein can bring!
Even the most ordinary yellow-level immortal veins, as long as they are given a certain amount of time to practice, can gain huge benefits. Just like Guangming City, the former Chengdu can also take this opportunity to step into the realm of the king!
As for the Xuan Ji Immortal Vein, it is not a problem to step into the Quasi-Emperor, or even the Emperor!
The Earth's Ultimate Immortal Vein can therefore enable one to enter the supreme state.
As for the top-level Heavenly Grade, the benefits are even more incredible. One can even directly gain benefits in comprehension. Even for the Lord of Chaos, this benefit is extremely obvious!
Looking at the entire East Asian continent, there are only three Tianji Immortal Veins in total. It is a pity that many people may not be able to see one in their entire lifetime!
If they could obtain even one yellow-level immortal vein...
Then the position of the city lord is worth fighting for!
Even if other properties are distributed more, they will not be as much as the income!
"I think I can do it!"
One person raised his hand, "I am from Guangming Chamber of Commerce in Guangwu City!"
"Sir, it's better to choose me! I used to be a seventh-rank official!"
The Lord of Guangming City is an official of the sixth rank in the entire Guangwu Continent. Of course, it is very rare for someone with such a high level of cultivation as the Lord of Guangming City to be a Lord of the City.
The fundamental reason why he did not make any progress was simply because the Lord of Guangming City could gain huge benefits, but did not want to lose his life for it!
But he is an official of the sixth rank in the empire after all!
"Have you ever been a seventh-rank official?"
Song Yu frowned, "What do you think about managing the city?"
When the man saw Song Yu's gaze at him, he immediately became happy and hurried forward to show himself!
"Reporting to the Lord, this person's previous position as a seventh-rank official was purchased through numerous connections and at a great cost!"
The other person suddenly became anxious and raised his hand to report.
“You paid for it?”
Song Yu smiled, crossed his arms, and said calmly, "Keep talking!"
"Big... lord!"
The "seventh-rank official" swallowed his saliva slightly, not daring to feel any resentment. He was just afraid that he would be implicated. After all, the head of the Lord of Guangming City was still there.
"Haha, I don't care how you got your official positions. As long as you have real talent and knowledge, the position of Lord of Bright City can be given to you."
"If it really doesn't work, I can only ask Emperor Guangwu to send someone to be the city lord."
Song Yu chuckled, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
