Chapter 275: Resolving Notting City’s Trouble

Notting City is a small border town of the Tiandou Empire, directly bordering the Star Luo Empire.

In peaceful times, this was a trading city between the two countries. But now, the style of the new master of Wuhun Hall in Notting City has made the people in the city miserable. Especially the common people doing business, almost everyone is exploited by them.

In the past, the three major forces in Notting City were Notting Academy, Wuhun Palace and the City Lord's Mansion.

Wuhun Palace is now the only one in power, and the pattern in the city has long been broken.

"Huh, Lao Xiao, I don't believe we can't kill that arrogant palace master if we work together." Su Changqing shouted loudly, his expression turned extremely ugly.

Xiao Zhan's remarks were too one-sided. With Wuhun Palace's style, it not only affected the people doing business, but also affected almost every aspect of the city.

The deacons of Wuhun Palace have beaten Notting College students on the street many times. Not only does it affect public security in the city, it also greatly affects the teaching work of Notting College.

Qi Tian did not speak, but sat aside and listened to Xiao Zhan and Su Changqing express their dissatisfaction.

Wuhundian's move undoubtedly exposed their ambitions. Through his understanding of the original work, Qi Tian certainly knew that after Bibi Dong provoked the mainland war, the kingdoms and principalities bordering the two empires and the Wuhun Palace were all included in the territory of the Wuhun Empire.

It is impossible for Wuhun Palace to make these kings change their minds with just one word. They will definitely take more measures to force them to rely on Wuhun Palace.

Just like Notting City, Xiao Zhan, the city lord, has actually been sidelined. It is true that the Wuhun Temple is running rampant in the city, but the Wuhun Temple is still helping children of school age to awaken their martial souls for free.

The country people doing business didn't know if the person who attacked them was the deacon of Wuhun Palace. They only knew that it was the inaction of the city lord Xiao Zhan that made these people act recklessly in the city.

Once the time comes, Wuhundian publicly stated that they will take over the security of the city. The people's dissatisfaction with Xiao Zhan will explode instantly, and by then, Notting City will inevitably be included in the territory of Wuhun Palace.

It was not that Qi Tian had never thought of following Tang San's example and killing the master of the Spirit Hall in Notting City.

But there is no point in killing the opponent. The soul king's strength is not impressive in Wuhun Palace. They can appoint another soul king, or even soul emperor, to continue to work in Notting City.

Moreover, they can still use this leverage to attack Xiao Zhan endlessly. The final result will not change much, and Xiao Zhan will even be implicated.

Although Tang San's actions in Gengxin City relieved his anger, when Wuhun Palace sent out a new palace master, innocent people would still be implicated.

Qi Tian was silent for a long time, and then he said: "Dean, Uncle Xiao, I think the top priority is not to think about how to fight to the death with the master of Wuhun Palace, but to find a way to reduce the influence of Wuhun Palace in the city to Minimum.”

Xiao Zhan and Su Changqing looked at each other with a hint of surprise on their faces.

Their previous idea was to use force to force Wuhun Palace to make concessions. But in terms of strength, there is a big gap between them and Wuhun Palace. After all, this approach is just lip service and cannot be realized.

"Xiaotian, do you have any countermeasures?" Xiao Zhan couldn't help but ask.

Qi Tian nodded. It wasn't really a countermeasure.

"What the Wuhun Palace did was just to make the City Lord's Mansion lose its credibility. They knew that the City Lord's Mansion did not dare to go to the Wuhun Palace to arrest people, so they acted unscrupulously."

"However, we are not breaking up now. The actual control of Notting City is still in the hands of Uncle Xiao. I feel that there is no need to control what Wuhun Palace does, and we should not control it."

Before Qi Tian could finish speaking, Xiao Zhan immediately objected, "Absolutely not. If this continues, won't the whole city of Notting be in a state of panic? When the Governor and His Majesty are held accountable, my position as city lord will be over. ”

Su Changqing patted him on the shoulder and smiled bitterly, "Old Xiao, don't rush to express your position. We are fans of the authorities now. Xiaotian, as a bystander, should be able to give a lot of suggestions, let's just listen to what he has to say."

"The one who knows me is the dean." After making a joke, Qi Tian continued: "Uncle Xiao, you can send someone to quietly follow the deacon of Wuhun Hall."

"These deacons are all soul masters, and they won't care about the city guards you arranged. When they start beating people, your people don't need to intervene. They can just record the matter on the side."

"Wait until the next day, and then announce all the actions of these deacons, and add their portraits. After that, you announce that the number of soul masters in the city guard is sparse, and it is difficult to effectively control the behavior of these deacons. About The losses of the people will be borne entirely by your city lord’s palace.”

Xiao Zhan shook his head again, "I'm afraid not. Where did the City Lord's Mansion get so much money? Those guys didn't do it lightly or hard. I'm afraid it won't be enough even if I lose all my money."

Su Changqing was not in a hurry to express his position. He knew that Qi Tian would not take the target lightly, so he must have thought of a countermeasure. In fact, Xiao Zhan didn't even have to pay a dime in the end.

Qi Tian smiled faintly, "If I remember correctly, all the soul master subsidies issued by the Notting City Spirit Hall are provided by the empire. Uncle Xiao, I remember you told me that the empire will give you this money first. The City Lord’s Mansion will then be handed over to the Wuhun Palace.”

"There are very few soul masters in Notting City, and most of them are concentrated in Wuhun Hall. Moreover, the group of deacons who receive the most soul master subsidies are also the deacons of Wuhun Hall. You will withhold the money and only distribute it to Noting College and Subsidy from the city lord’s soul master.”

"As a result, if the deacon of Wuhun Hall cannot get the money, he will inevitably put pressure on the master of Wuhun Hall. When the time comes, he will not be able to compromise."

The money belonged to the Tiandou Empire. As long as there was no quarrel, Xiao Zhan was not worried that Wuhun Palace would send people to snatch it away. If he really dares to do this, as the top administrator of Notting City, he can attack Wuhun Palace openly.

After Su Changqing heard this, he greatly appreciated this, "It's a good strategy, let them go dog-eat-dog, and the pressure will be transferred back to Wuhun Hall. Moreover, by publishing the portraits and actions of these deacons, the people will soon know that to the The person who took action was Wuhundian.”

Xiao Zhan smiled hoarsely, "We two are old, and we still have to rely on Xiaotian to find such a perfect strategy."

Qi Tian shook his head and smiled, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that the focus of your attention has always been on the Master of Wuhun Hall, and you haven't considered the problem from the overall perspective."

"But there is another important issue. You are not strong enough to compete with the master of Wuhun Palace. If Wuhun Palace sends another Soul King, these measures will be in vain."

This is indeed a problem, but both Xiao Zhan and Xiao Zhan are over fifty. How easy is it to make a breakthrough?
