Chapter 910 Entering the Dilapidated City Lord's Mansion
"Lord City Lord, have you perhaps seen our Thirteenth Master?"
The leading man frowned after hearing this, then gripped his sideknife and asked warily.
"Hehe, I haven't seen it before, but you should go back and tell your general."
"If you've got what it takes, just bring it on! Don't give me any of that nonsense, get lost!"
Upon hearing this, the leading man's eyes flashed with a fierce light, but considering that today's mission was only to teach this new city lord a lesson, he did not make a move. Instead, he led his men, turned their horses around, and rode away into the distance.
Not long after they left, suddenly, many people emerged from the houses on both sides of the street.
Most of them were at the Celestial God Realm, similar to Chu Chen and Chen Qingxuan.
Occasionally, there might be a master at the Dao God Realm, but they would only stand at the very back and observe.
"Are you the newly arrived city lord of Desert City?"
After the crowd gathered, an old man suddenly spoke up and asked Chu Chen a question.
"That's right, old man, I am the newly arrived city lord Chu Chen. May I ask everyone, were you afraid of that so-called Black Fiend Army just now?"
The old man sized up Chu Chen and, upon discovering that he was only at the late stage of the Heavenly God Realm, immediately shook his head.
"Everyone, disperse. A city lord at the late stage of the Celestial God Realm is of little use!"
"And also, Lord City Lord, you should go back to where you came from, lest you lose your life!"
After saying that, the old man got out of the car and walked towards his stall.
Upon hearing the old man's voice, the crowd dispersed, going about their business as if Chu Chen and his three companions had never arrived.
"Um... Brother Ba, what's going on?"
Chu Chen looked at Ba Tiancheng and said with a helpless expression.
"Don't worry, kid, everything's fine. Once we find the team that Grandpa left behind, we'll be able to grow and expand quickly!"
"Let's go, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion first!"
Under Ba Tiancheng's guidance, the car soon entered a dilapidated house.
The house occupies a large area, but that's all it is.
Upon seeing this, Chen Qingxuan stepped forward and gently pushed the dilapidated door, which collapsed with a thud.
"Holy crap, Little Tyrant, are you sure this is the City Lord's Mansion?"
"That's right. I remember coming here many years ago. It was quite nice back then. How did it become like this?"
Chu Chen stepped forward, then looked at the dust and smoke rising from the collapsed gate: "When did you get here?"
"Not long ago, as far as I can remember, a few years ago!"
"Fuck you! You've been locked up for a thousand years!"
"Yeah, I was imprisoned for a thousand years!"
Looking at this learning machine that had been locked up and made stupid, Chu Chen felt helpless. He thought to himself that it was understandable since this thing often hung out with those earth demons.
Then he turned to Sha Yanyan and said, "Yanyan, why don't you contact your grandfather's former subordinates?"
After listening, Sha Yanyan nodded, then waved her hand and took out a stick-shaped tube, put it in her mouth, and blew the whistle to signal the assembly!
Suddenly, a long whistle rang out throughout the desert city.
On the street, a short man selling sesame cakes dropped his load and ran towards the city lord's mansion after hearing the whistle.
On the other side, a beggar who was begging on the street revealed an excited smile, then threw down his broken bowl and walked quickly toward the city lord's mansion with one eye open and one eye closed.
On the yellow riverbank, a woman who looked to be in her thirties finished a transaction of one or two coins, pushed away an old man who wanted to pay more, and disappeared into the crowd in an instant.
"Hey, hey, hey, you bastard, you're giving up halfway through?"
"Get lost! Next time we meet, you'd better call me grandpa!"
After saying that, the burly man abandoned his employer's goods and left with a flourish.
Looking at the dilapidated city lord's mansion, Chu Chen waved his hand helplessly and picked up a broom: "You drunkard, clean up the main room!"
"Although the start is tough, you've seen my abilities, so have faith in me!"
Chen Qingxuan did not refute, but picked up a broom and began to sweep the entrance hall.
Finally, just as he had cleaned the inner hall to the point where people could barely sit down, four figures suddenly arrived as promised.
"Ahem, may I ask who summoned me?"
Chu Chen turned around and saw four strange-looking people outside the door.
A burly man, who looked strong and powerful, had upward-slanting eyes that made Chu Chen immediately realize that this guy must be a patient with severe Down syndrome.
A short, incredibly ugly man and a woman who looked like a brothel madam, staring at him with eyes that seemed to regard him as if he were a piece of silver.
The speaker was a man coughing, his tattered clothes and the flies he kept around made Chu Chen think that this guy was an independent ecosystem.
Moreover, this guy turns a blind eye to everything, which makes him look incredibly irritating.
However, before Chu Chen could speak, Ba Tiancheng and Sha Yanyan walked out of the hall first and bowed to the four of them.
"Ba Tiancheng, the second and fifth grandson of the Heavenly Domain Lord, Sha Yanyan, pays respects to the four seniors!"
"Hmm... you two kids from back then, you've grown so much? I remember your name was Sha Bi, why did you change your name? Cough cough cough cough!"
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen burst out laughing, thinking to himself, "Ba Tiancheng, Ba Tiancheng, I thought your surname was Ba, or maybe it was Sha!"
Ba Tiancheng smiled sheepishly: "Senior, that name didn't sound good, so I changed it myself!"
"Heh, your name isn't exactly pleasant to listen to either!"
As he spoke, the tuberculosis patient, who was turning a blind eye to everything, stepped forward and took the token and a letter from Sha Yanyan.
Then the four of them huddled together and began to read it word by word.
A short while later, the four turned around again and asked the group, "Where is Chu Chen?"
Upon being called, Chu Chen immediately stepped forward: "Four seniors, I am Chu Chen, the newly arrived city lord of Great Desert City!"
Upon hearing this, the four of them immediately knelt down in front of Chu Chen.
"Guan Chuan, former leader of the Southern Route Army of the Great Desert City, greets Your Majesty, City Lord." The speaker was the one with Down syndrome.
"Ben Hu, former leader of the western army of the Great Desert City, greets Your Majesty, City Lord." The speaker was the short man who sold sesame cakes.
"Fei, the former leader of the Northern Army of the Great Desert City, greets Your Majesty, City Lord." The speaker was a man with tuberculosis.
"Shui Churou, former leader of the Eastern Route Army of the Great Desert City, greets Your Majesty, City Lord." The speaker was a woman in her thirties.
"The four of us will obey the orders of the city lord from now on, and we will be willing to die for him, even at the cost of our lives, so that the city lord may unify the desert city as soon as possible."
