Along the way, Tan Yun couldn't help but admire the magnificent scenery around him. The lush greenery and vibrant flowers created a serene atmosphere, and the faint sound of flowing water added to the beauty of the environment.
As they approached the Council Hall, Tan Yun's heart stirred with anticipation. He knew that important matters were often discussed within those walls, and he felt honored to be part of this gathering.
Once inside the Council Hall, they were greeted by several esteemed members of the City Lord's Mansion. The atmosphere was filled with a sense of purpose and seriousness as everyone took their seats.
Xuan Yuan Hao Kong stood at the forefront, his presence commanding respect from all. "Thank you all for coming," he began, his voice steady and authoritative.
Tan Yun listened attentively as discussions unfolded regarding the recent developments in the territory. The topics ranged from defense strategies against potential threats to the allocation of resources for upcoming training sessions.
Every member contributed their thoughts, showcasing their expertise and dedication to the City Lord's cause. Tan Yun felt a sense of camaraderie among the group, knowing that they all shared a common goal: the prosperity and safety of their city.
As the meeting progressed, Tan Yun found his confidence growing. He had spent years honing his skills in body refinement technique and refining technique, and he was eager to contribute his insights when the opportunity arose.
Finally, after hours of deliberation, Xuan Yuan Hao Kong concluded the meeting. "Let us work together to ensure our city flourishes," he declared, his gaze sweeping across the room.
Tan Yun nodded in agreement, feeling inspired by the collective determination present. He knew that with such capable individuals rallying together, their city would undoubtedly reach new heights.
Xuan Yuan Hao Kong looked at him with approval and said, “Young friend Tan is indeed remarkable. This formation was arranged by my City Lord's niece.”
“My niece not only has extraordinary talent but is also proficient in formation techniques and refining techniques. Especially in refining techniques, she is like you, a saint level celestial sacred artifact master.”
As Xuan Yuan Hao Kong and Tan Yun chatted, they arrived outside the Council Hall.
Along the way, Xuan Yuan Hao Kong reminded Tan Yun that the matter of eliminating Lu Xian and Ge Yunhao should be kept secret and not mentioned to outsiders.
At this moment, inside the hall, ten Immortal Generals, a hundred vice generals, and a thousand junior generals stood neatly in place.
Confusion appeared on their faces, unsure of why General Xuan Yuan had summoned them.
“Brother Chang Feng, what do you think your uncle wants with us?”
“Yeah…”
Everyone looked at Xuan Yuan Chang Feng, curious.
Xuan Yuan Chang Feng shrugged, “You ask me, who should I ask? I’m not a worm in my uncle's stomach.”
The City Lord's Mansion originally had three brothers.
The eldest was Xuan Yuan Hao Kong, the second was Xuan Yuan Hao Zhi, and the third was Xuan Yuan Hao Ting.
Xuan Yuan Chang Feng was the son of Xuan Yuan Hao Ting, who had died in battle.
The City Lord's father was the second, Xuan Yuan Hao Zhi, who also died at the hands of a high-level immortal.
“Ahem.” With an elderly cough, Xuan Yuan Hao Kong was the first to step into the grand hall.
“Commander, I pay my respects to the General!” Over a thousand voices rang out in unison as they clasped their fists and bowed.
“This is not a military camp, there’s no need to be so formal,” Xuan Yuan Hao Kong waved his hand and said, “Everyone, please take a seat.”
“Thank you, General.” The thousand people sat down in their chairs.
Xuan Yuan Hao Kong surveyed the crowd and said, “I have gathered you all today because I have decided to formally appoint one of you as a vice general.”
“This means that from today onward, my subordinates will increase from a hundred vice generals to one hundred and one.”
