Sky Surveying Demon Hunt

Chapter 657
As the five Taoist Patriarchs of Jinling City and Master Guhong put down their wine glasses on the main table, the sound of drums and music sounded from nowhere, and most of the oppressive feeling brought about by the appearance of Master Guhong before finally dissipated.

The garden gradually became bustling. The gentry from Jinling City's aristocratic families were toasting to each other, and it was very lively.

Lin Ji picked up the wine jug that had just been delivered, filled his own wine glass, and poured it for Lu Zhaoer as well.

Picking up the wine glass, he took a sip, then smacked it twice, and then he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"It's not as hot as baijiu, it's not as mellow as rice wine, and it's not as sweet as fruit wine. This Yulu wine is tasteless in the mouth, but after it enters the throat, the mouth is full of wine. Weird, good wine!"

After drinking a glass of Yulu wine, even Lin Ji could feel a slight fluctuation in the spiritual power in his body. Although it only subsided for a moment, but it can affect monks who entered the Dao realm, this Yulu wine is still extraordinary.

Filling himself another cup, Lin Ji looked at Lu Zhaoer again.

At this time, Lu Zhaoer also drank a cup, and her face was flushed a little.

"The stamina is great." Lu Zhaoer said.

"Then drink it slowly, there is only one pot for a table, and it will be gone after drinking." Lin Ji poured another glass for Lu Zhaoer.

This jug of wine was only five catties, and it was originally divided among the whole table, but only he and Lu Zhaoer could drink freely at Lin Ji's table, so it took advantage of it for nothing.

Fu Kongming is not a Yuanshen monk, and Lin Ji thinks that he is only in the third realm, even so, his cultivation is a bit vain, and I am afraid that he is not so lucky.

"The Jinling Cocktail Party lasted for three days. The first two days were for fun, and the third day was the real meat show." Fu Kongming clinked glasses with Lin Ji. The wine in his glass was just ordinary fine wine.

"On the third day, the city lord of Nangong handed over the seal of the city lord, and the heads of the other four families fought for it. The one who won the seal of the city lord will be the next city lord of Jinling City."

Hearing this, Lin Ji was a little surprised and said, "The lord of Jinling City must be a Taoist monk? The threshold is too high."

But Fu Kongming smiled and said: "If you don't enter the Tao, you can't suppress all parties."

"How to say?"

"Mr. Lin, you said that in the Kyushu of the Central Plains, is there any other prefecture that chooses the city lord in this way?"

"The Kyushu in the Central Plains, only Jinling is like this! I understand."

Halfway through the speech, seeing the inexplicable smile on Fu Kongming's face, Lin Ji immediately reacted.

If he wanted to secure his position as the city lord of Jinling, he had to have the ability to overwhelm the Qin court.

Cheng Yu, the governor of Jiantiansi Township, is at the peak of the sixth realm, and with the fortune of the Great Qin Kingdom, he is much stronger than the ordinary day tour realm.

If the city lord is not a Taoist, even Cheng Yu can't hold back, the name of the city lord will become empty talk.

"Don't blame Mr. Lin, Yangzhou is too far away from Jingzhou, and this rule has existed since ancient times. Yangzhou is near the sea, and monsters are rampant. , it is naturally impossible to obey Daqin's orders."

Lin Ji suddenly realized.

The Great Qin was only from a noble family thousands of years ago. In Yangzhou, where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, there may not be many people who have awe of the Great Qin court.

"So what are the benefits of being a city lord?" Lin Ji asked again.

"The good thing is that the supply of cultivation resources on weekdays will be [-]% more than normal. There is no other benefit."

After a pause, Fu Kongming saw that Lin Ji was not dissatisfied, so he said: "The position of city lord was launched to fight against the Great Qin court, and he is the leader of Jinling City and even Yangzhou's various families, so if something big happens , No one will disobey the order of the city lord, even if they are also Taoists."

"You are outspoken." Lin Ji shook his head helplessly.

No matter how you say it, he is still the town official of Supervisor Tiansi.

Fu Kongming smiled and said, "It's because of Brother Lin's good temper that I dare to say that."

Lin Ji waved his hand.

This has nothing to do with his good temper or not. The monks from the five aristocratic families are on the scene, so what else can he make waves.

Just when Lin Ji thought that there was nothing exciting to watch today, and he probably just drank and went home after drinking.

Suddenly, there was a loud bang!
Boom.
Immediately afterwards, the earth shook and the mountains shook.

Lin Ji's face changed slightly, he put his hands on the table to stabilize it, looked around, but saw that the people around him seemed a little dazed.

"The loud noise came from outside the city."

Lin Ji raised his head and looked towards the direction of the sound. There was a lone peak outside Jinling City. At this moment, the mountain collapsed. Rolling stones could be seen falling, and dust and smoke were everywhere.

"That's Cang'er Mountain!" Fu Kongming on the side exclaimed in a low voice, "It's the ancestral land of the Nangong family!"

Hearing this, Lin Ji's pupils shrank slightly, and he turned to look in the direction of the main table.

But Nangong Limeng had already stepped into the air, looking in the direction of Cang'er Mountain with a cold face.

"He Fangxiao is young, dare to act presumptuously in my Nangong family's ancestral land!"

After the words fell, a tyrannical coercion descended instantly.

In just an instant, all the guests in the back garden of Nangong's family changed their complexions drastically. Those who were not as good as the Yuanshen realm even sat down on the ground one by one, looking dazed and at a loss.

"Brother Fu, let's go." Lin Ji supported Fu Kongming who had almost passed out, and with a thought, there was a spiritual energy between heaven and earth protecting him.

"Leave quickly, Zhao'er, you go too."

"What's going on?" Lu Zhaoer asked hurriedly, a little confused.

Lin Ji shook his head slightly, his eyes wandering between Cang'er Mountain in the distance and Nangong Limeng above.

"I don't know, but at Cang'er Mountain, there is a move from the seventh realm." Lin Ji said in a low voice, "Looking at the reaction of Patriarch Nangong, I'm afraid it's an attack from a foreign enemy. If there is no accident, it may affect Jinling City .”

Hearing this, Lu Zhaoer no longer hesitated.

"Then I'll protect my cousin and go first, you should be careful." She has never been a procrastination person.

After watching Lu Zhaoer and Fu Kongming leave, Lin Ji found that many people present had already reacted, and the Primordial Spirit cultivators were all protecting the juniors in their families and leaving quickly.

In just a moment, in the originally noisy garden, there were only seven Taoist monks including Lin Ji, and more than a dozen day-traveling monks from various families.

"Jinling Cocktail Party, Yangzhou's top monks are here." Lin Ji thought to himself, "I am afraid that even if the Taiyi Sect came, they would not dare to underestimate this power. Who would dare to cause trouble at this juncture?"

Just as Lin Ji was thinking in his heart, Nangong Limeng above finally withdrew her terrifying aura of reaching the peak of Dao Realm.

She raised her hand, turned her palm into a knife, and swung it viciously in the direction of Cang'er Mountain.
