Inheriting A Divine Cultivation Clan At The Start, All My Juniors Are Empresses

Chapter 1254: Chapter 346: The Banquet at Hongmen, Well Said (Part 4)

It’s certain that in the Demon-slaying Bureau, Yuan Tiangang calls the shots, and Yuan Tiangang’s wife happens to be Chen Weiran’s wife and sister. With an increasingly dislike for Yuchi, they definitely chose to stay put, mimicking the two of them by starting to drink tea, the implication is very clear.

The Defense Department is extremely conflicted.

Honestly, the Director of the Defense Department knows why he has climbed up, it’s because Xun Yu was taken out secretly before he could rise!

Therefore, he surely remembers vividly about this matter. The instigator for having Xun Yu killed was Yuchi, so Yuchi himself must be quite a formidable existence. Choosing Yuchi seems to have no issue!

But...

But at this moment, the Celestial Capital Department appears to be very powerful indeed. After all, it’s been in Jiangzhou City for such a long time, after so many years of nurturing, Chen Weiran’s word in Jiangzhou City is like an imperial decree, he possesses an authoritative presence!

So when it comes to choosing, the Director of the Defense Department can only choose to drink tea.

Drink tea...

Drink tea.

Let the Jiangnan United Commerce Association fade away, as long as I manage my own small territory, that’s enough.

As for the City Lord of the Imperial Decree Department, right now his forehead is full of sweat, beads of sweat drop one by one on the ground beneath him, he looks as if he’s soaked in a bath.

Really.

If you don’t come into this council hall, it’s impossible to sense how frightening this atmosphere is.

Everyone seems to be drinking tea on the surface, but in reality, it’s truly fraught with swords and spears, fiercer than the battles between cultivators.

This involves invisible and untouchable things!

Then what should I do at this moment?

Do I follow the Jiangnan United Commerce Association? Do I still have faith in the Jiangnan United Commerce Association, or do I take the same stance as the Defense Department and say the Commerce Association’s future has nothing to do with me as the City Lord?

He...

He’s just turned into a salted fish, hasn’t he?

After a few breaths of silence, he suddenly held onto the chair and stood up.

Under the gaze full of killing intent from Chen Weiran and Yuan Tiangang, he walked step by step to Yuchi’s side.

Then he sat down beside Yuchi, hands trembling as he picked up a teacup.

As a result, due to his trembling hands, the tea from the entire teacup splashed everywhere, directly spilling onto his clothes, and also accidentally falling onto Yuchi’s clothes.

At this time, Yin Shuang was very considerate, she was standing on a chair behind Yuchi and took the initiative to pour the City Lord a cup of tea: ”Uncle City Lord, please have some tea.”

The City Lord’s teeth were chattering, he forced a smile as he glanced at Chen Weiran, then looked at Yuchi with some smiles as he drank his tea; he didn’t dare to say anything!

In fact, why he could make this choice was because he himself is a mortal.

I am already a mortal, I am already afraid of being controlled by the Celestial Capital Department and others.

If mortals don’t help mortals, then who is willing to help mortals?

Then it’s normal for cultivators to look down on mortals, isn’t it?

He didn’t care about what Yuchi’s side was like, but the Jiangnan United Commerce Association, it is a commerce association for mortals, it’s here to address the hardships of mortals.

Then as the City Lord, should I still defect to the cultivator’s side at this time?

No...

Then I would rather die!

Otherwise, if he chooses Chen Weiran’s side, he might not die, but he could suffer a lifetime of pain!

This is the courage of mortals, the critical moment to fight desperately! Chen Weiran smashed the teacup, his finger pointed remotely at the City Lord’s cowardly demeanor: ”Alright! You’re good! You’re very good! You’re extremely good! Is this the choice you made yourself? Fine! Damn good for you!”

And Yuan Tiangang’s face was also filled with gloom, motioning for Chen Weiran to calm down, he then proceeded to say:

”Yuchi Sanshang, now you can already see the situation, right?”

”Among the Four Major Institutions in Jiangzhou City, three institutions related to cultivators are all standing on our side, and then you?”

”You only have a cowardly City Lord, what do you have to fight with us?”

”You can’t really think you can leave this Celestial Capital Department today, do you?!”

”You have already been surrounded by us, even if Xun Xian comes to save you now, you have no chance to survive! This is what you chose yourself, don’t blame us for having no mercy!”

After Yuan Tiangang finished speaking, Chen Guangsheng and others were already looking at Yuchi with the eyes used for looking at a dead person.

Yuchi took a sip of the not so pleasant tea soup, handed the teacup backwards without turning his head, Yin Shuang expertly placed the teacup on the nearby tea tray.

Yuchi said with a smile: ”No no no, I think there are two things you got wrong.”

Everyone: ”?”

”The first thing, the City Lord is not cowardly.”

”As a mortal, he can choose to stand on the side of the people at this time, so even if he used to go around looking for mistresses, he is still an upright person.”

”At least he didn’t choose to stand on your side just because you are cultivators, thereby constantly exploiting the people, right?”
