My Master Knows It All

The City Lord of Land Blast City heard about the distribution of Peace Command and her face stiffened for a moment, but after a while, she still spoke: ”Your Peace Command will be given to you.”

”Thank you, City Lord.” Cao Zhen continued, ”Well, City Lord, I am thinking of getting some help for certain matters concerning Land Blast City. Could you instruct your subordinates to assist me at certain times?”

”Naturally, I can tell them to follow your orders.” The City Lord didn’t ponder much before speaking directly, ”However, there are certain things that cannot be done. As you said, rules must be followed, and we need to follow rules too.

One of the rules is that we cannot arbitrarily kill your cultivators, understand?”

”I understand, I naturally understand.”

Cao Zhen felt that this Land Blast City Lord seemed aware that he wanted to use those ghosts to kill the remaining few Daluo Golden Immortals and had intentionally pointed him out.

In truth, if those ghosts could kill Immortal Lord Yan Yi and his group, it would be great; if not, he had other methods to employ.

”By the way, City Lord, you know my current situation; I am being targeted by some cultivators.

Do you think you can let me be the first to leave Peace City when daylight arrives?”

”Of course, you can.” The City Lord didn’t hesitate this time and agreed directly.

”Thank you, City Lord, for the Peace Command that allows my departure.”

Peace City Lord simply waved her hand and said, ”From now on, within Peace City, you may enter any place without needing the Peace Command.”

Cao Zhen gave the Peace City Lord an astonished look. He felt that the Peace City Lord wasn’t usually so generous.

Was it because she discovered that he could bring her benefits, so she bought his favor?

”Also, take this.” The City Lord of Land Blast City handed over a jet-black bead the size of a prayer bead.

”Whenever you see this Treasure Bead light up, it means I am looking for you. You must return here at the fastest speed.

If you do not return to Land Blast City, there will be no sanctuary for you within the one hundred eight Peace Cities.”

”Naturally, when I see it shine, I will certainly return.” Cao Zhen looked at the bead in his hand and curiously asked, ”If I were to encounter danger in another Peace City,

for instance, if I came into conflict with other city lord’s subordinates, would showing this bead matter?”

”In cities like Earth Micro City, Earth Wisdom City, Earth Nature City, Earth Crazed City, Earth Manic City, Ground Flying City, and Earth Coincidence Star, the city lord will consider my request.

But for most cities, I’m not sure whether they will give me consideration.

You must especially remember not to pull out this bead in cities like Earth Talent City, Earth Valiant City, Earth Pride City, Earth Expert City, Earth Complete City, and Earth Hidden City.”

Initially, when Cao Zhen first saw Land Blast City, he felt like it bore the names of the seventy-two Earthly Fiends.

Now it seems that cities like Earth Micro City, Earth Wisdom City, Earth Nature City... would turn their city’s names into star names, becoming the seventy-two Earthly Fiends.

With seventy-two Earthly Fiends, there must be thirty-six Heavenly Poles, perfectly assembling one hundred eight Peace Cities.

And the cities with potential as mentioned by Land Blast City Lord could be her allied city lords, perhaps even her coalition.

As for those cities where it’s best not to show the bead, they naturally belong to her adversaries.

It appears these one hundred eight Peace Cities aren’t a united front.

But what’s unknown is what these one hundred eight Peace Cities are responsible for.

Currently, he dare not ask further.

After securing the bead, he promptly left the City Lord’s tower.

Then he returned to his residence, took out a pen, and wrote several notices. He also wrote two letters.

Then he summoned several ghosts, instructing them to post the notices in the city, while one was tasked with delivering the letter to Immortal Lord Shi Wang.

After all, some cultivators witnessed Immortal Lord Shi Wang walking with him.

So ideally, it’s better for Immortal Lord Shi Wang to leave in the first batch along with him; it’s just uncertain whether he required a Peace Command or not.

Soon, within Land Blast City, at the city gates and various vital locations, notices were posted.

”Henceforth, within Land Blast City, after daylight, the Daluo Golden Immortals cannot leave the city immediately; Taiyi Golden Immortals must leave first, followed by a stick of incense’s time before Daluo Golden Immortals may leave Land Blast City!”

”These rules, these are good rules!”

”Indeed, previously, whenever we left Peace City, we worried whether those Daluo Golden Immortals might attack us.

Now, we can leave first, so we don’t need to worry.”

”What’s with Land Blast City suddenly having this new rule?”

”Look at the back.”

”Applications for early departure are allowed, as long as each cultivator offers five Peace Commands.

Moreover, this isn’t restricted to one cultivator; a team or acquainted cultivators can choose to leave together.”

”This rule, this seems perfectly tailored for cultivators who have obtained treasures but fear pursuit.”

”Wait, did you all notice something?”

A cultivator suddenly reacted, speaking loudly: ”These conditions look as if they were devised for Immortal Lord Bai Feng!”

”That’s right, it’s exactly him. He has almost offended all of our cultivators and even those Daluo Golden Immortals.
