549: The Son-in-Law of Dazun

Looking at Qin Jiang and the others, the City Lord’s face stiffened. Weren't they from the Lower Realm?

How could a mere Lower Realm possess such strength?

To the Heaven Domain, whether it's a first-level or second-level realm, both are considered Lower Realms.

However, even a first-level realm would find it difficult to produce such profound heritage, right?

The City Lord cursed inwardly.

The person who relayed the message clearly set him up, saying there was a great battle, and only after being ambushed did he lose and get tied up.

What the heck!

One Immortal Emperor and eight Immortal Kings—even if he personally intervened, a great battle wouldn’t even be possible.

If he had known this, that furious palm strike he held back earlier shouldn't have been restrained.

It would have been better to just slap them to death.

It’s just a pity that whether there will be another chance in the future is not for him to decide.

Although he is the Tongtian City City Lord, since the other party dared to tie up people from Tongtian City, they are certainly not benevolent but absolutely wicked individuals!

Perhaps, he might have to die for the city today.

“Are you the Tongtian City City Lord?”

At this moment, Qin Jiang asked.

From their standing positions, the City Lord could tell that Qin Jiang was the one in charge.

He forced a humble smile and said, “It is I.”

“It’s good that it’s you.”

Qin Jiang smiled slightly, then pointed to the group of people from Tongtian City and said, “They are people from your Tongtian City, right?”

“Yes.”

“Alright.

They, for no reason, injured my Disciple, Black Dragon. How many people were there again?”

“Thirteen thousand two hundred and eight people.”

“Oh right, they injured thirteen thousand two hundred and eight people under my command. Your Tongtian City should pay for their medical expenses, right?”

Qin Jiang said with a smile.

Hearing this, the City Lord’s mouth twitched. These little trash injured so many people?

They’re not even bothering to act anymore!

However, given the circumstances, the City Lord could only nod and say, “I’ll pay, I’ll definitely pay!”

“Also, they not only injured people but also damaged some treasures.”

“Pay, I’ll pay for everything!”

The City Lord did not hesitate. After all, Tongtian City had money, and life was the most important thing.

Moreover, once he returned to Tongtian City, who would pay whom would be uncertain.

“Straightforward!”

Qin Jiang nodded in satisfaction, then looked at Black Dragon and said, “Calculate it.

Let’s see how much our losses are. This Lord City Lord will definitely compensate us.”

“Yes.”

Black Dragon responded.

Afterward, he and Little Xu began discussing in low voices for quite a while…

The City Lord watched as the papers recording the losses beside the two kept getting thicker, and there was more than one stack, each over a meter high.

His face twitched continuously.

With so many losses, he estimated that the entire Tongtian City might not be able to afford it.

It took a full half day.

Only then did Black Dragon carry the papers recording the losses and place them in front of the City Lord: “Here, take a look.”

“…”

The City Lord’s face turned dark.

Does he even need to look?

He definitely couldn’t afford it!

However, he never intended to pay anyway, so it didn’t matter.

The City Lord took a deep breath and said, “No need to look, I’ll pay!”

“Alright, then sign an agreement.”

Qin Jiang nodded.

He took out a scroll and threw it to the City Lord. This was a Dao agreement.

Once signed, the agreement could not be violated.

Seeing the scroll, the City Lord’s expression changed slightly. How could people from the Lower Realm have such a thing?

Moreover, if he signed this, how would he pay?

Such a large amount of losses, even the entire Tongtian City couldn’t afford it.

“What?

Lord City Lord doesn’t want to sign?”

Seeing his expression, Qin Jiang narrowed his eyes, his voice tinged with coldness.

Hearing this, the City Lord gave a dry laugh: “Is there a need?

This agreement scroll is quite valuable. It would be too wasteful to use it on me.”

“It’s fine. It’s just an agreement scroll. I have plenty here. Do you want to sign a few more copies?”

“Uh…”

The City Lord’s face stiffened.

He shook his head repeatedly. He couldn’t afford even one, let alone several.

However, in his heart, he began to have some doubts about Qin Jiang’s identity.

Is this really someone from the Lower Realm?

Impossible!

People from the Lower Realm, when they come to Tongtian City, are always well-behaved. Who would dare to tie up people from Tongtian City, and even extort Tongtian City?

Moreover, this agreement scroll is quite valuable even in the Heaven Domain.

Could the Lower Realm have it?

Possibly, but it’s impossible to take out several at once.

Thinking of this, the City Lord felt that this time, he might have encountered a big shot. Perhaps he was a Young Master from some Saint Race, or even the God Race.

Furthermore, the other party held a high position in his clan.

Only such a person would dare to set their sights on Tongtian City.

As his thoughts turned, the City Lord lowered his posture, a bitter expression on his face: “Young Master, to be honest, with so many losses, my Tongtian City might not be able to afford it.”

“Can’t afford it?”

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow and said with a faint smile, “It’s fine if you can’t afford it. Don’t your various Tongtian Cities have connections with each other?

Go borrow some treasures from them.”

Hearing this, the City Lord was completely certain that this person was definitely not from the Lower Realm. After all, people from the Lower Realm couldn’t possibly know that their various Tongtian Cities had connections.

Thinking this way, from the beginning, the other party had deliberately lured him here.

His goal was the accumulated wealth of Tongtian City.

Moreover, his appetite was even greater than he had imagined; he not only wanted the accumulated wealth of his own Tongtian City.

He was also eyeing other Tongtian Cities.

So bold, what kind of background did he have?

The City Lord took a deep breath, his face solemn, and looking at Qin Jiang, he said, “Young Master, you should know that my Tongtian City has many big shots behind it. If you are confident you can withstand the pressure, I will borrow these treasures for you!”

Behind Tongtian City, there were many big shots.

However, as an Immortal King, he was not qualified to contact such big shots.

And this person in front of him, perhaps, was the descendant of such a big shot. If he could establish a connection, surrendering all his accumulated wealth would be worth it.

Therefore, his words were meant to probe Qin Jiang’s background.

“Big shots?”

Qin Jiang curled his lips and said, “I know that your Tongtian City was created by the Great Venerable in conjunction with many powerful individuals. They are indeed considered big shots, but do you know who I am?”

“You are?”

“Heh heh.”

Qin Jiang chuckled lightly. He stood up, a proud expression on his face, and said, “I am precisely the Great Venerable’s son-in-law!”

“???”

Hearing this, the City Lord’s face went blank.

The Great Venerable’s son-in-law?

The strongest person in the Myriad Realms was the Great Venerable, and he had a daughter, which was not a secret.

Moreover, his daughter was also a top-tier powerhouse.

However, it had never been heard that she had shown interest in men.

The City Lord looked at Qin Jiang, his appearance, his physique, his length, uh, he couldn't see…

However, perhaps, that person might truly be moved!
