557: We also have friends
The True Spirit Slave Seal completely devoured their Primordial Spirits.
Qin Jiang could clearly feel that the lives and deaths of the eight Immortal Kings were all within his control.
He looked at An Xihe, waved his hand, and said, "Xi He, that's enough."
"Okay~" An Xihe replied.
The Emperor's might receded, and the city lords also stumbled to their feet.
They looked at Qin Jiang, their eyes complex, and finally, they could only sigh and respectfully bowed: "Your subordinates greet our Master."
"No need for formalities."
Qin Jiang smiled.
From now on, these eight Immortal Kings would be his confidants.
With the True Spirit Slave Seal, they would never betray him.
Looking at the city lords, Qin Jiang's Face was full of smiles; he had gained a certain foundation right after arriving in the Heavenly Domain.
It was a good start.
The city lords all straightened up; now, they could only accept reality, after all, even suicide required Qin Jiang's permission after being enslaved.
Let alone other thoughts.
Just then, one of the city lords' eyes darted, and he spoke, "Master, do you still need more people?"
"Hmm?"
"I also have some friends who are also Tongtian City Lords; if you need them, Master, I can trick... cough cough, I can invite them over."
A sly smile appeared on this city lord's Face.
The other city lords, hearing this, also looked thoughtful.
Tieshan knew them and tricked them over.
They also knew other city lords, so why not trick them over too?
They should share difficulties.
Since they were enslaved, shouldn't their friends accompany them?
Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow, also becoming interested.
At this moment, Tieshan spoke, saying, "Young Master Qin, Tongtian City is not just backed by the Great Venerable alone; if you enslave too many people and they are discovered by those individuals, even with the Great Venerable protecting you, they will likely target you."
The entire Heavenly Domain was created by the Great Venerable, in conjunction with a group of top experts.
And this Tongtian City was also established by them, responsible for managing the Heavenly Domain; as time passed, the power of the Heavenly Domain and Tongtian City had become undeniable.
It also had a certain influence on those top experts.
If too many people were truly enslaved, those top experts might really come to trouble Qin Jiang.
"There are thousands of Tongtian Cities throughout the Heavenly Domain; enslaving a few more won't matter much."
The city lord who made the suggestion spoke again:
"What's more, Master is the Great Venerable's son-in-law; enslaving a hundred or eighty people definitely won't be a problem."
Upon hearing this, Qin Jiang nodded.
But suddenly, he remembered that he didn't seem to be the Great Venerable's son-in-law yet.
He couldn't be too reckless.
Otherwise, facing those top experts, he really couldn't be sure what would happen.
He looked at the city lords.
Just eight was indeed a bit few; ten or eight more should be fine.
"Then you can find a few more; not too many, just ten or eight will do."
Qin Jiang said.
Upon hearing this, the city lords all responded, "Yes.
Master, rest assured, we will not disappoint you."
"Alright, go and contact people."
Qin Jiang waved his hand.
Afterward, he didn't linger, leaving with An Xihe and Mu Lan.
In the dilapidated hall, only the city lords remained.
As Qin Jiang's back disappeared from their sight, they also withdrew their gaze, and then, they all uniformly looked at Tieshan.
Tieshan's heart tightened, and he vigilantly looked at everyone: "What do you want to do?"
"Heh heh."
The city lords sneered.
Although they had accepted their fate, this culprit still needed to be dealt with.
Everyone surrounded Tieshan, rubbing their fists, preparing for a big fight.
Tieshan remained vigilant and threatened, "Don't mess around; I am Young Master Qin's confidant!"
"You're a confidant?"
Everyone scoffed:
"We are the true confidants, and we are confidants who will never betray our Master.
As for you, you're just a tool."
With that, they exchanged glances and simultaneously attacked, throwing punches and kicks.
They continuously struck Tieshan.
Actually, in this Tongtian City, if Tieshan truly fought back, the others wouldn't be able to defeat him.
However, he was indeed a bit guilty.
Moreover, the city lords had all become Qin Jiang's confidants, so it wasn't good to get truly serious.
So, he merely defended, letting them vent their anger.
After fighting for a while, everyone's anger had mostly subsided.
It was time to get down to business.
Tieshan also stood up, patted the dust off his body, and said helplessly, "Have you all vented enough?"
Everyone snorted coldly.
Clearly, they hadn't vented enough, but since they all worked under Qin Jiang, they couldn't get truly serious; otherwise, they would definitely try every means possible.
To directly kill Tieshan!
Taking a deep breath and suppressing the emotions in their hearts, they looked at Tieshan and asked, "Is our Master really the Great Venerable's son-in-law?"
"Of course."
Tieshan nodded:
"Although I tricked you into coming here, this point is beyond doubt!"
"How do you confirm that?"
Everyone asked.
Tieshan snorted lightly, looked at everyone, and said proudly, "Young Master Qin has a Town Heaven Divine Seal in his hand, and you can check the Myriad Realms Tower to see who is currently number one in the Myriad Realms Tower."
"Town Heaven Divine Seal? Number one in the Myriad Realms Tower?"
They naturally knew that the Great Venerable's ultimate treasure was the Town Heaven Divine Seal.
And the Town Heaven Divine Seal was a smaller version of the Town Heaven Divine Seal.
Possessing the Town Heaven Divine Seal meant the Great Venerable's approval, so as long as one possessed the Town Heaven Divine Seal, almost everyone would have to give the Great Venerable Face.
To this day, the number of Town Heaven Divine Seals given out by the Great Venerable was less than ten.
Holding the Town Heaven Divine Seal and claiming to be the Great Venerable's son-in-law.
It would indeed convince people.
As for the number one in the Myriad Realms Tower...
"Master is number one in the Myriad Realms Tower?"
The city lords all asked in surprise.
Although they also paid attention to the Myriad Realms Tower, it was usually only every few decades, or even hundreds of years, that they would check it, and Qin Jiang...
He wasn't even a hundred years old.
He only became number one in the Myriad Realms Tower a little over thirty years ago; during this period, everyone hadn't paid attention to the Myriad Realms Tower, spending most of their time Cultivating in seclusion.
If it weren't for Tieshan contacting them, they would probably still be in seclusion now.
Hearing everyone's questions, Tieshan nodded seriously and said, "That's right.
Young Master Qin is number one in the Myriad Realms Tower!"
Number one in the Myriad Realms Tower; no wonder the Great Venerable would bestow the Town Heaven Divine Seal.
In that case, Master had no reason to lie at all.
He really was the Great Venerable's son-in-law!
After all, the number one in the Myriad Realms Tower was a well-known figure, no matter how you looked at it.
Would such a person lie about something like this?
For a moment, the city lords all believed that Qin Jiang was the Great Venerable's son-in-law.
A look of relief appeared on their Faces.
In that case, following Qin Jiang was not a loss.
