Chapter 652: Deputy City Lord

"If Liuyun City can be upgraded to a medium-sized city, it may be possible to set up a teleportation array later, which will also benefit your family..."

After Wu Yiyang explained his purpose, he told Li Qianqing a lot about the benefits of Liuyun City being upgraded from a small city to a medium-sized city.

The changes in the city will bring about changes in the monks' market.

The monks' market is larger, and there will be more forces doing business in the monks' market. If the Li family needs anything in the future, they can easily buy it in the monks' market in Liuyun City, without having to go further.

Li Qianqing nodded while listening.

Wu Yiyang said so much just to speak for the last thing.

He needs the help of their Li family.

If a city wants to complete the upgrade, it is not possible for the city owner to upgrade it.

If a small city wants to be upgraded to a medium-sized city, if Li Qianqing remembers correctly, the entire human territory seems to have only one quota in a thousand years.

The number of quotas is very small, and all small cities can participate in the competition for quotas. If you want to secure a quota, you must have a refining force around this small city.

There is a special map in the Divine Mansion.

A city on the map and the surrounding influence range are given a very appropriate size.

Obviously, in this special map, Changling Mountain of their Li family is classified as within the territory of Liuyun City.

"...Whether a city can be upgraded to a city depends on the score of nearby forces." At this point, Wu Yiyang smiled, "So in this regard, I still need your help."

"How can I help you?" Li Qianqing was puzzled. "According to what you said, our Li family currently has nine Divine Transformation cultivators. Isn't this information enough?"

"This information is enough. The problem now is that after I reported the situation around Liuyun City, there are five cities that are similar to our Liuyun City."

"Only two of the six cities can be upgraded to a city."

"For small cities to be upgraded to medium-sized cities, there is an opportunity to report once every thousand years. The Divine Mansion will select five small cities to be upgraded to medium-sized cities. Currently, three places have been confirmed." Wu Yiyang also gave Li Qianqing a brief explanation.

The current situation is to choose two out of six.

As the city lord of Liuyun City, Wu Yiyang hopes that Liuyun City can become a medium-sized city.

As long as Liuyun City becomes a medium-sized city, he, the city lord, will be able to obtain more resources and have a greater hope of breaking through to the Refining Void Stage in the future.

So he must ask the Li family for help on this matter!

"What should we do next?" Li Qianqing seemed to understand after listening to Wu Yiyang's explanation, so he asked directly.

"The Divine Mansion will send people to test the strength of your Li family's Divine Transformation cultivators."

When Wu Yiyang said this, his eyes were always on Li Qianqing, watching the changes in Li Qianqing's expression.

When reporting, just record how many Divine Transformation cultivators there are in the surrounding Divine Transformation forces, whether they are in the early, middle or late stages, and the Divine Mansion will score them according to the most basic situation.

On the surface, the Li family is just a first-class Divine Transformation force.

Thousands of years ago, Huanglong Valley was destroyed by the Li family. Compared with the current Li family, the Li family at that time was completely different on the surface. Wu Yiyang knew that the Li family was not as simple as it seemed on the surface, otherwise he would not come to ask the Li family for help.

At this moment, Li Qianqing's expression did not change much, and Wu Yiyang could not judge what Li Qianqing was thinking now.

Li Qianqing did not reply to him, but just looked at him.

Wu Yiyang knew that at this time, he had to put the prepared chips on the table.

"Daoyou Li, you are a low-key person. The Li family has not taken the initiative to cause trouble in these years. After the people from the Divine Mansion come, I definitely don't want you to just deal with it." Wu Yiyang paused and continued, "As long as Daoyou agrees to help, no matter whether Liuyun City can complete the city upgrade in the end, the position of the deputy city lord of Liuyun City will be held by the Li family cultivator."

"As long as I, Wu Yiyang, am in Liuyun City, this position will belong to your Li family."

"Daoyou Li, I believe in the ability of your family. Even if I am not the city lord of Liuyun City in the future, it will not be difficult for you to keep this position."

After saying what he should say, Wu Yiyang waited for Li Qianqing's reply.

Deputy city lord of Liuyun City...

To be honest, Li Qianqing didn't expect Wu Yiyang to give such a heavy bargaining chip.

The city lord of each city can only be a pure Divine Mansion cultivator, but the deputy city lord is different. It can be recommended by the city lord or a Divine Mansion cultivator.

If you can become the deputy city lord of Liuyun City, it is equivalent to half of the Divine Mansion, and the power is still quite large.

A city usually has two deputy city lords, one of whom is most likely a cultivator from the pure Divine Mansion.

If one of the deputy city lords of Liuyun City is a cultivator from their Li family, it will be more beneficial to the development of the Li family in the future.

And Wu Yiyang is right in one point. If a cultivator from their Li family takes the position of deputy city lord, even if the city lord of Liuyun City changes in the future, if the deputy city lord wants to change, the new city lord will have to weigh the influence of their Li family.

Li Qianqing is confident that once a member of the Li family takes this position, he will not step down.

"Daoyou, you have said so much, our Li family will naturally do our best." Finally, Li Qianqing nodded and agreed to let the cultivators from the Divine Mansion come to test the strength of their Li family's transformation into gods.

"Daoyou Li, happy cooperation!" Wu Yiyang smiled.

"Happy cooperation."

There is a big gap between the deputy city lord of a small city and the deputy city lord of a medium-sized city.

Wu Yiyang believed that Li Qianqing would know what to do after he promised him.

He could use the position of deputy city lord as a bargaining chip, in addition to seeing the potential of the Li family, and also because of the way the Li family has done things for thousands of years.

With such a way of doing things, as long as you don't offend the Li family, the Li family will not have any extra thoughts about you, but with such a way of doing things, it is also quite difficult to get help from the Li family.

Like he came to the Li family for help this time, he was sincere enough.

If he was not sincere, Li Qianqing would have asked someone to send him away soon.

Two hours later, Wu Yiyang left Changling Mountain and returned to Liuyun City.

Li Qianqing looked at Wu Yiyang's figure in the distance. At this moment, he was thinking about which of their Li family's incarnation cultivators should be sent to be the deputy city lord of Liuyun City.

After screening, Li Qianqing finally determined the candidate.

Li Yongfeng!

Let him be the deputy city lord of Liuyun City.

In terms of strength, Li Yongfeng, who has successfully broken through to the stage of transformation of spirits in both cultivation, has no problem being the deputy city lord of Liuyun City. The important thing is his character. He will be more convincing in the future.

Li Qianqing still hopes that the cultivators of the family can do something in the position of deputy city lord, so that the attitude of the surrounding forces towards their Li family will be more different.

There is no best, only better.

No matter what he does, Li Qianqing hopes that the clan members can do better.

In the subsequent chat between him and Wu Yiyang just now, most of the content was small talk. The content of the chat was mainly about the cultivators of the Divine Mansion and when they would come to the Li family.

On the surface, their family is a first-class force of transformation of spirits. After the test, the family will definitely squeeze into the top group of forces of transformation of spirits.

The position of deputy city lord is still better in a medium-sized city.

In front of the stone gate of the cave where Li Yongfeng lives.

After seeing Wu Yiyang off, Li Qianqing came here.

He knocked on the stone door twice gently, and soon the door opened.

"Ancestor." Li Yongfeng stood up quickly after seeing that it was Li Qianqing who came in.

"Yongfeng, I came to you this time to tell you something."

"Ancestor, please speak."

"This matter is about Liuyun City..."

Li Qianqing roughly told him about Wu Yiyang's visit.

"... In the future, I hope you will take the position of deputy city lord of Liuyun City." At this point, Li Qianqing smiled, "I hope you can continue to sit in this position."

The original text can be read in Liu # 9 @Book/Bar!

After listening to everything Li Qianqing said, Li Yongfeng said that he understood and would sit in the position of deputy city lord of Liuyun City.

The so-called sitting there means that he hopes that his realm can continue to improve.

Li Yongfeng, who was in the early stage of transformation, must have hoped that he could continue to follow the ancestor's wishes.

After coming to the spirit world, Li Yongfeng knew how big the world was and how many races there were. He also knew that many of the cultivation methods of those evil demons and heretics came from foreign races.

After practicing these foreign techniques, they need to slaughter people of their own race to ensure the smooth practice of the techniques.

In the Fanmao world, evil cultivators are hated by everyone, and the same is true in the spirit world, but these evil cultivators are also welcomed by foreign races, such as the blood race.

The evil cultivation techniques that require a lot of blood to practice are often passed on from the blood race.

With the protection of foreign races, Li Yongfeng knows that it will be more difficult to eliminate evil cultivators in the spirit world, so he also needs stronger strength.

The deputy city lord of Liuyun City is a good position. If he can do it well, it can bring him great help.

After Li Qianqing told Li Yongfeng about these contents, he returned to his cave and began to accumulate spiritual power.

Now his goal is to strive to accumulate spiritual power to the peak of the middle stage of the transformation of the spirit within 500 years, and then break through to the late stage of the transformation of the spirit.

More than half a year later.

It's the time agreed by Wu Yiyang.

In the next few days, Wu Yiyang will bring the cultivators of the God's Mansion to the door to understand the real strength of the Li family, and then re-evaluate the Li family.

According to Wu Yiyang, as long as the Li family can be rated as a top-level force in the transformation of the spirit, one of the remaining two places for the city promotion will definitely be Liuyun City.

Changling Mountain, in front of the mountain gate.

Wu Yiyang brought two cultivators here.

The cultivators were a man and a woman, the man was in the middle stage of the transformation of the spirit, and the woman was in the late stage of the transformation of the spirit.

They were all cultivators from the Divine Palace.

"Wait a moment, three seniors, I will go to inform the clan leader." The Li family's late Yuanying cultivator saw the three people, and after the courtesy was in place, the person also disappeared in front of the three people.

"The cultivator guarding the mountain gate is the late Yuanying. I didn't know that the Li family was a Mahayana-level force." The male cultivator in the middle stage of the transformation of the spirit said.

"Master Zhuang still likes to joke so much. Don't you know that the Li family is a family of transformation of the spirit from the lower realm? The space channel opened up also requires a late Yuanying cultivator to come up relatively safely."

The male cultivator in the middle stage of the transformation of the spirit is named Zhuang Xingwen, and Wu Yiyang has a very bad relationship with him.

Originally, the relationship between the two was just average, but because of the competition for the position of the city lord of Liuyun City, the relationship between the two became worse.

In the Divine Palace, the positions of the city lords of small and medium-sized cities and the cultivators who want these positions are more wolves than meat.

Among them, the competition for the position of the city lord of a medium-sized city will be more intense.

As for micro-cities and large cities, the former do not even have any requirements for cultivation, and one can take the position as long as the grade reaches the ninth grade.

There is a special system in the Divine Palace. As long as you are a cultivator in the Divine Palace, you are at least of the ninth rank. Because there are too many micro-cities, even if the cultivators in the Divine Palace are basically above the Nascent Soul stage, sometimes there will be a situation where a Jindan cultivator serves as the city lord of a micro-city.

The Divine Transformation cultivator is very reluctant to become the city lord of a micro-city.

The city lord of a large city requires a grade of at least the third rank, and the limit on the cultivation is the Refining Void stage. If the grade is high enough but the cultivation is not enough, you can only become the acting city lord.

Therefore, the competition for the position of the acting city lord of a large city is also quite fierce.

In the entire Qianfeng area, there are sixteen Refining Void sects and four Refining Void cultivation families.

There are only twenty Refining Void forces, which shows the gap between the number of Divine Transformation cultivators and the number of Refining Void cultivators. In the Divine Palace, as long as the cultivation breaks through the Refining Void, the grade is at least the third rank, and it is easy to be the city lord of a large city.

"I say, Lord Wu, you also know that I am joking." Zhuang Xingwen looked at Wu Yiyang, and the provocative expression on his face was very obvious.

It is not easy for Liuyun City to upgrade from a small city to a medium-sized city.

He is in the middle stage of the Spiritualization, and he mainly verifies the strength of the Li family's early stage Spiritualization cultivators. The Li family has eight early stage Spiritualization cultivators and one mid-stage Spiritualization cultivator.

It can be seen that the majority of the verification is on him. If he wants, he still has the ability to prevent the Li family from reaching the standard of the top Spiritualization forces.

Wu Yiyang saw Zhuang Xingwen's provocative look, and he just smiled on the surface, and didn't say much else.

He didn't expect that the Divine Mansion would send Zhuang Xingwen here.

When he saw Zhuang Xingwen's face in Liuyun City, he knew that Zhuang Xingwen would make it more difficult for him.

Now he just hopes that the Li family's cultivators can be more powerful.

Among all the Li family's early stage Spiritualization cultivators, Wu Yiyang is most confident in Li Xunting. And the reason why he is confident in Li Xunting is in the elder Ji Yuelan of the Xueyue Sect.

According to reliable information, Li Xunting's strength is slightly above Ji Yuelan.

And eighty years ago, Ji Yuelan, who was in the early stage of the Spiritualization, defeated an opponent in the middle stage of the Spiritualization, which means that Li Xunting must have the strength of an ordinary mid-stage Spiritualization cultivator.

Li Qianqing's strength had been verified a thousand years ago. Now Li Qianqing, who is in the middle stage of the Spiritualization, can barely reach the strength of a late-stage Spiritualization cultivator.

Unlike Zhuang Xingwen, the other one will not embarrass him.

So in Wu Yiyang's eyes, Li Qianqing and Li Xunting are safe. If you want to upgrade the city 100%, you must have another Li family cultivator who has the strength of the middle stage of the Spiritualization in the early stage of the Spiritualization.

If the Divine Mansion did not send Zhuang Xingwen, then this early stage of the Spiritualization would only have to have the strength of the middle stage of the Spiritualization.

Originally, Wu Yiyang was full of confidence, but because of Zhuang Xingwen, whether Liuyun City could successfully upgrade the city became an unknown. (End of this chapter)
