Chapter 2159: The Recruitment of a Son-in-Law Begins, Murong Jiankong
”Meet the City Lord, Steward Zhou.”
Sikong Lian waved his hand and asked, “Is Young Master Xu still in there?”
”Always,” the guard replied.
”I have never come out since I went in.”
”Go and tell them that the City Lord wants to see him,” Steward Zhou ordered.
The guard did not dare to hesitate and turned and ran into the courtyard.
After a while, the guard came out first, followed by Xu Zimo swaggering in.
Sikong Lian put his hands behind his back and looked Xu Zimo up and down.
When he looked at Xu Zimo, Xu Zimo also looked lazy after waking up, and glanced at him.
”Are you the husband that my daughter found herself?” Sikong Lian asked directly without any nonsense.
”When did you meet?”
”I said it was love at first sight, do you believe it, City Lord?” Xu Zimo smiled.
”You’d better think it over before answering me,” Sikong Lian said lightly.
”The city lord should ask Sikong Qing about this. I can’t tell you anything. She knows better than me,” Xu Zimo replied.
”You’re not afraid of me,” Sikong Lian narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xu Zimo’s attitude and answer seemed to show that he didn’t take him seriously.
Just as Butler Zhou said, this man was too calm.
Isn’t he afraid of death?
”Why should I be afraid of you? Do I have to put my life in danger just to have a relationship?” Xu Zimo smiled.
Sikong Lian frowned slightly.
He seemed to be in deep thought. Xu Zimo gave him a very strange impression.
This made Sikong Lian a little confused.
But he didn’t waste his words, and said: “You can marry Qingqing, but there is a condition.”
”No matter what I say in Heyang City, I am still a local overlord, and I can’t take back what I have said.”
”Now the whole Heyang City, and even the surrounding cities know that I want to recruit a son-in-law.”
”If you do nothing, this recruitment will be cancelled, I’m afraid it’s not appropriate.”
”The recruitment will continue at that time. If you want to marry Qingqing, you will get the first place.” ”
If you can’t do it, don’t blame me for breaking you up then.”
”Everything in the world is cultivation,” Xu Zimo replied.
”Some things are not important for the result, but the process.”
At this time, a guard suddenly ran over in a panic.
”City Lord, someone is coming!”
”Who is it?” Sikong Lian frowned.
The guard looked at Xu Zimo, then at Sikong Lian, and said cautiously: “It’s Lord Murong Jiankong of Baori Sect.”
”Lord Murong?” Sikong Lian’s face changed.
”Why is he coming here at this time?”
”Butler Zhou, you talk to him first, I’ll go over to take a look.”
Sikong Lian hurriedly walked outside.
Butler Zhou entertained Xu Zimo and briefly told him about the process of recruiting a son-in-law.
Basically, anyone can participate in this recruitment.
As long as they come to Heyang City.
However, the recruitment of a son-in-law is divided into two tests.
One is that the person must be a virgin.
In other words, being unmarried sounds simple, but this threshold is estimated to block 90% of people.
The second threshold is to be able to practice ice-attributed exercises.
Doesn’t it sound very simple?
In fact, it can still block 99% of people.
Because this is the Blazing Fire Domain.
The world of the Fire Clan.
The people here hate water and ice the most.
Any power that is opposed to fire is not welcome in this world.
As for those who can actively practice ice-attributed exercises, they are even rarer.
Because the ten suns are in the sky in the Blazing Fire Region, it is as difficult as ascending to heaven to cultivate ice attributes here.
Butler Zhou explained it to Xu Zimo in advance.
It’s like someone gives you a tip before the exam.
”What is Murong Jiankong’s background?” Xu Zimo asked.
He was not interested in the test.
”From the Baori Sect,” Butler Zhou didn’t say much, but the Baori Sect was enough to explain everything.
The Baori Sect is a very famous force in the Blazing Fire Region, and Heyang City is a force under the control of the Baori Sect.
Murong Jiankong has a very high status even in the Baori Sect, not to mention coming to Heyang City.
………
After Butler Zhou explained it, he left.
After that, Xu Zimo didn’t see Sikong Qing.
In fact, he could see at a glance that Sikong Qing’s body was not right.
As a member of the Fire Clan, Sikong Qing was not close to fire, but was very repulsive to fire.
This was the reversal of yin and yang in the body, and the body fell into an alternative state.
Although Xu Zimo didn’t check it carefully, he knew that this state was very dangerous.
It is estimated that this time the recruitment of a son-in-law is not a simple recruitment of a son-in-law. The main purpose is to cure Sikong Qing’s illness.
Xu Zimo does not know what method Sikong Lian is going to use, but it is not important.
………
The day of the recruitment of a son-in-law is set for tomorrow.
Tonight, Heyang City is very lively, with lights and decorations, and it can be said that there are crowds of people.
No one disturbed Xu Zimo until the next morning, when a special guard came to call Xu Zimo.
The general meaning is that the recruitment of a son-in-law is about to begin, and Xu Zimo cannot have any privileges, so he should go for the assessment as soon as possible.
After walking out of the City Lord’s Mansion, although it seems that no one followed him on the surface.
But Xu Zimo can still sense that there are several people watching him in secret.
He walked on the street in a swagger.
The front was blocked.
However, when Xu Zimo walked, there was a special force around him, which squeezed all the people in front to both sides.
He didn’t need to do anything, and those people would be squeezed to the side.
Someone saw this scene and thought Xu Zimo was too domineering.
He shouted directly and slapped Xu Zimo with a palm.
”Bang” sound.
Xu Zimo was safe and sound, but the man was directly bounced out.
This also made some people’s faces change, thinking that Xu Zimo was extraordinary.
Along the way, people attacked Xu Zimo from time to time.
However, no one could get close to Xu Zimo, and they were all bounced away by the power around Xu Zimo.
In this way, Xu Zimo had no obstacles all the way and came directly to the high platform for the assessment.
In fact, before the assessment, the City Lord’s Mansion had stated the first requirement for the assessment, virginity.
For a time, many people were desperate.
But there were still some people who wanted to fish in troubled waters with a fluke.
Unfortunately, the City Lord’s Mansion was well prepared, and they had a special method to detect virginity.
Anyone who was found to be a sham would be beaten up directly. Even
though the requirements were so strict, the people who wanted to participate lined up in a long line, almost circling Heyang City.
After Xu Zimo came up, he directly cut in line.
The people in the City Lord’s Mansion didn’t say anything.
The person who was cut in line dared to be angry but didn’t dare to speak.
Because Xu Zimo’s strength was obvious to all along the way.
The city lord Sikong Lian sat at the top.
On his left was the housekeeper Zhou, and on his right was a person Xu Zimo had never seen before.
It should be Murong Jiankong.
