Chapter 404 Leaving Blackrock City? Absolutely not!

Blood Lady and Iron Mountain Liu looked at Jiang Yun's face, which was as calm as still water.

The panic in their hearts miraculously dissipated a little.

The City Lord could remain so composed.

Clearly, he did not take these three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts before him seriously.

What did this mean?

It meant that the City Lord had confidence! He had a backup plan! He had trump cards they didn't know about!

The two exchanged a glance, both seeing the same thought in each other's eyes.

The City Lord's identity must be even more astonishing than they had imagined.

A sixteen years old youth, facing the pressure of three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts without changing his expression, remaining calm and composed—this level of composure and bearing was definitely not something an ordinary person could possess.

Moreover, when the City Lord previously faced such a powerful Fourth Rank expert like the Second Elder of the Huang Family.

He also appeared unruffled.

He even took out a token, and after letting the Second Elder of the Huang Family see it.

It made the Second Elder of the Huang Family become respectful toward the City Lord.

From this, it could be seen that the City Lord's identity must be terrifyingly high.

Otherwise, it would not have made the Second Elder of the Huang Family feel such apprehension.

"It seems that our initial choice to follow the City Lord and submit to him was the most correct decision of our lives."

Blood Lady thought to herself.

Iron Mountain Liu had the same thought.

He straightened his back, raised his head, and looked at the three behemoths in the sky; the fear in his eyes lessened, while his awe increased.

It wasn't because he was no longer afraid, but because he believed.

The City Lord would definitely be able to handle all of this.

On the high platform, Jiang Yun's gaze was merely sizing up the three people in the air.

Beneath the silver-white mask, blue light flickered in the depths of his eyes.

His Innate Talent Skill was quietly activated.

Three pieces of data entries information slowly manifested before his eyes.

Jin Buhan, Peak Falling Star Rank 9, Grand Elder of the Jin Family, Tamed Beast: Golden-Winged Thunder Hawk.

Old Ghost Bai, Peak Falling Star Rank 9, Old Ancestor of the Bai Family, Tamed Beast: Frost Gray Wolf.

Old Woman Han, Peak Falling Star Rank 9, Old Ancestor of the Han Family, Tamed Beast: Emerald Spirit Python.

Seeing this information.

Jiang Yun could not help but frown slightly.

Three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts.

And they were all at the Old Ancestor level of their Families...

Jiang Yun calculated silently in his heart.

The Jin Family, the Han Family, the Bai Family.

When he was in the provincial capital.

He had never heard of these three Families.

Sky Dome Academy, the Appraisers Guild, the Qian Family, the Feng Family... and so on.

These were the first-rate powers on the surface of the provincial capital.

As for the Jin, Bai, and Han Families, they were clearly not among them.

From the three's conversation, it was certain that they all came from the provincial capital.

But among the first-rate families of the provincial capital, there were no names of these three families.

Looking at the strength of the three.

They were likely among the second-rate families of the provincial capital.

Although Jiang Yun had not stayed in the provincial capital for long, he had a certain understanding of the power structure of the provincial capital.

The provincial capital was divided into multiple districts, and each district had its own powers entrenched there.

The Qingmu District had the Lin Family and the Su Family, these two second-rate families; other districts naturally had similar powers.

The Jin, Bai, and Han Families were likely second-rate families from other districts.

In a second-rate Family, the strongest person in the Family was at most at the Peak Falling Star Rank or the early stage of the Eclipsing Moon Rank.

In the provincial capital, there were too many such powers; they couldn't even be ranked.

But in Black Rock City, a Peak Falling Star Rank 9 expert was already enough to walk sideways.

Jiang Yun quickly analyzed the situation in his heart.

The current situation was extremely dire.

The three families arriving together was just what was on the surface.

Secretly, he didn't know how many powers were coveting Black Rock City.

These three families were just the vanguards who stood out first; the powers hiding in the dark and watching were likely even more numerous.

If he could not completely deter these people today and let everyone see his foundation and methods, then when he left Black Rock City in the future, wouldn't just any Tom, Dick, or Harry be able to come and step on him?

This territory of Black Rock City was even hotter to handle than he had imagined.

He must find a powerful external aid to deter these restless powers.

Jiang Yun immediately thought of the Liu Family.

The Liu Family was a Hidden Family in the provincial capital. Although he did not know exactly what level of power the Liu Family was, judging from Elder Liu Lan's strength at the second stage of the Eclipsing Moon Rank, the Liu Family's foundation was definitely far superior to these three second-rate families: the Jin, Bai, and Han Families.

If an Elder of the Liu Family could stand up for him, would these people from second-rate families still dare to act recklessly?

With this thought, Jiang Yun no longer hesitated.

He moved his mind slightly and injected spiritual power into the communication token.

He transmitted his voice in a way that only Elder Liu Lan could hear: "Elder Liu, this Junior is ready. Elder can come to pick this Junior up to go to the Liu Family at any time."

On the other end of the token, there was a moment of silence.

Immediately, Elder Liu Lan's voice came through, carrying a hint of laziness.

"Good! Grand Tutor Dongxuan, please wait a moment. At most two minutes, and this Elder will be able to reach you."

Two minutes.

Jiang Yun breathed a sigh of relief.

Two minutes was enough.

On the high platform, the three people in the sky had stopped arguing.

They seemed to realize that continuing to argue like this would not yield any results.

Jin Buhan spoke first, his voice cold.

"The three of us are arguing back and forth, and it's still unknown who will finally end up with the ownership of Black Rock City. But if we let this kid stay here, none of us will get Black Rock City."

Old Ghost Bai and Old Woman Han looked at Jiang Yun on the high platform at the same time.

A cold glint flashed in their eyes.

"Kid."

Old Ghost Bai stroked his beard and said slowly: "I don't know what method you used to kill that person from the Huang Family. But to be honest, we could also have killed that person; it's just that we were afraid of the power behind the Huang Family and didn't make a move."

"Now, you kid have fulfilled our wishes."

Old Woman Han chimed in, her voice shrill.

"Although that old thing from the Huang Family is dead, this territory of Black Rock City is definitely not something you can covet."

Jin Buhan continued: "Looking at your strength, it seems to be only Amethyst Rank. To have such strength at this age, there must be something you are relying on behind you. But the mountains are high and the emperor is far away; this place is hundreds of kilometers from the provincial capital. If something really happens, you won't be able to gain any advantages."

Old Ghost Bai nodded.

"We advise you kid to withdraw quickly and leave Black Rock City. If something unpleasant happens later, and you get hurt, maimed, or killed, you cannot blame us."

The three of them exchanged words, and the meaning in their words was only one.

Get lost.

Get out of Black Rock City.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Yun frowned deeply.

Immediately.

He sneered.

"What?"

His voice was not loud, but it clearly reached the ears of everyone present.

"Are you trying to join forces to drive me out of Black Rock City?"

"Join forces?"

Jin Buhan sneered, his eyes full of disdain.

"To deal with an Amethyst Rank kid like you, do we need the three of us to join forces? We are just kindly reminding you; do not refuse to listen to advice, and be careful not to lose your life."

Old Ghost Bai and Old Woman Han were also full of disdain, as if Jiang Yun was in their eyes.

Just an ant that didn't know the height of the sky and the depth of the earth.

Off the platform.

The crowd was in an uproar.

"It's over, it's over. Three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts are joining forces to apply pressure; this new City Lord is probably done for."

"What can he do? Faced with experts of this level, if it were me, I would have already knelt on the ground and begged for mercy."

"But that new City Lord... seems not afraid at all?"

"Not afraid? He's pretending, right? An Amethyst Rank kid, facing three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts, how could he not be afraid?"

"Who knows..."

Discussions rose and fell.

In the corner of the square, the three Elders were also talking in low voices.

"These three seem not to know the whole process of Jiang Yun killing the Huang Family Elder yesterday."

The goat-bearded Elder narrowed his eyes, thoughtful.

"They only think that Jiang Yun killed that person from the Huang Family by some means, but they don't know what actually happened."

"It seems they have been used as a gun by someone."

The bald Elder sneered.

"Someone is hiding in the dark, using the three of them as pathfinding pawns to test the bottom line of this new City Lord."

"Interesting."

The third Elder stroked his beard, his eyes flashing with sharp light.

"I want to see how this youth will handle the situation before him. Faced with the pressure of three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts, what choice will he make?"

The three Elders' gazes.

Fell on Jiang Yun on the high platform at the same time.

They were curious, what kind of confidence did this masked youth have to remain calm in this situation.

On the high platform, Jiang Yun's expression was slightly stunned.

He saw it.

These three people did not know at all what had happened yesterday.

They did not know that Fox Immortal had instantly killed the Meteorite Level 8 Huang Family Elder.

They did not know that after the Second Elder of the Huang Family arrived, he left respectfully.

They did not know that he held the Huang Family's Guest Elder Token in his hand.

They only knew that the Huang Family Elder was dead, the Huang Family had let go, and Black Rock City had become a land without an owner.

Then, they impatiently jumped out.

The ignorant are fearless.

Jiang Yun sneered in his heart.

Facing the threats of three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts, he was not afraid at all.

On the contrary, he smiled easily, and beneath the silver-white mask, a cold glint flashed in his deep eyes.

"Black Rock City has long been taken by me."

His voice was not loud, but it echoed over the square like metal clashing.

"Now, I am the City Lord of Black Rock City."

His tone was calm, but it carried an unquestionable majesty.

"You want me to leave Black Rock City?"

His gaze swept across the three people in the sky.

There was no fear, no retreat, only mockery in his eyes.

Jiang Yun's voice suddenly raised, like thunder exploding.

It made everyone present tremble in their hearts.

"Leave Black Rock City?"

Jiang Yun raised his head, the silver-white mask shining with cold light under the sun.

"I can only say absolutely not!"

"I do not have the habit of handing over a place that I worked hard to conquer!"

The corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a cold smile.

At this moment, he stood on the high platform, his posture straight, his Aura like a rainbow.

As if the three tens-of-meters-huge beasts in the sky.

Those three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts.

Were not worth mentioning in his eyes.

Off the platform, there was dead silence.

Everyone was shocked by Jiang Yun's words.

They looked at the masked youth on the high platform.

Looking at the undisguised mockery and disdain in his eyes.

An indescribable shock welled up in their hearts.

Faced with the threats of three Peak Falling Star Rank 9 experts.

He actually said no?

What was his basis?

Where did his confidence come from?

The three Elders were also slightly stunned.

Their gazes were fixed tightly on Jiang Yun on the platform.

Completely not expecting that this youth before them, whose strength was detected to be only Amethyst Rank.

When facing the threats and pressure of their three Peak Falling Star Rank Beast Tamers...

Could actually refuse without changing his expression...

The three of them became slightly vigilant in their hearts.

Could this kid really have some tough background and backing?

Or did he possess some trump card and method powerful enough that even they had to fear?
