As a result, the new Governor of Petty Province landed on a fellow nad Buddy. This lucky fellow was Coent's deputy and was very familiar with provincial affairs. Now that he was in power, he was even more spirited. Even Allen's request for a 30% increase in provincial taxes was t with a slap on the chest. However, it was Heath who suffered. Now that Billy had agreed to raise taxes, he, the provincial governor of Reese, naturally did not dare to refuse. In fact, lani had already investigated the fiscal revenues of the two provinces, and the provinces of Reese and Petty could afford to pay higher taxes. However, Demonic Shadow Empire's requirents for taxation had always been very relaxed, and there had been no major changes in the past decade. Even the eastern provinces had to tighten their trousers, while the southern provinces were all rich. Of course, the one who benefited the most was the Governor of the Province. Otherwise, Heath and Alan would not have waited for Alan to return from Mokedan to fight for the province's independence, so that they could continue to live their carefree life. Unfortunately, they had underestimated Alan's thods, and Coent had died in Mockdale just like that. Alan directly told them in action, either to obey or to die.
After such a disturbance, at least until they broke off with Demonic Shadow Empire, the big shots of the two provinces didn't dare to have any other thoughts. lani personally escorted these people back to the study. There were guards cleaning up the bloodstains. lani looked at Alan with a slightly different expression. Alan said calmly, "What, do you think my thods are too fierce?"
"This subordinate does not dare. On the contrary, I think His Highness handled it very well." "In fact, I was wondering how His Highness would deal with Heath and the others last night," lanie said frankly. If he agreed to their request, it would naturally be the worst thing to do. After this, they will be pushing their lengths, and they will even start to talk about taxes or goods in the future. If His Highness refused and instead agreed to their other requests as compensation, it would be an appropriate way for both sides to deal with it. Even though he retained His Highness' dignity, he did not embarrass the adults of the two provinces. "
"Oh, then you said that I killed Coent and handled it well."
lanie smiled and said, "The second thod, I'm just saying it's appropriate, but I'm not saying it's the best." In fact, this is just a compromise. It could be calm for a while, but in the future, the relationship with the two provinces would beco an endless undercurrent. Therefore, the best thod was to suppress them by force and cut off their self-righteous thoughts. In fact, he didn't hesitate to use all of Coent and the others before appointing other suitable candidates. If this is the case, the economies of the two provinces will inevitably regress, but in the long run, it will be feasible. "I'm just not sure if His Highness will be able to kill him."
"I'm not as complicated as you think," Allen smiled. "I only know one thing, and you can't set a precedent. Besides, this is Agares. If I show too much weakness and a provincial governor can bargain with , how will I manage the other territories in the future? Coent could not have died, but he thought I wouldn't dare to touch him, so I could only kill him. Otherwise, they will have no fear in the future. "
'"No matter what, Coent is dead and His Highness has appointed his deputy. This is a wonderful move. Everyone knows that His Highness has given them the position they are in now. His Highness can give it back, and they can take it back. They can't do anything without working hard." lani added, "Your Highness is going to Demoic Ring City, and I will not be able to follow you. And for fear that His Highness might not be familiar with so of the people and things in Demonic Shadow Empire or Tobia, I have found a candidate to accompany her around Your Highness for , so that you can do as you please."
"You're considerate. I guess he's at the door now. Call him in." Alan said.
lanie called to the door, "Margo, co in."
The door opened and a woman walked in from outside the study. Her hair was wrapped in waves. Her skin was as dark as any other Barre woman's, but she wore a tight silver-gray jacket and trousers. As a result, the swollen peaks under her collar were about to appear, and her strangely slender legs displayed wild lines. The Bar Race was indeed a race rich in beauties, and they were all sexy and wild, enough to arouse the desire of male creatures to conquer.
Alan shook his head and looked at lanie with a smile. "You didn't do it on purpose, did you?"
lani said innocently, "Margo is indeed a good talent. She is very familiar with the customs of the two empires and knows the big shots in the upper echelons of the empire like the back of her hand." It is no exaggeration to say that she is a walking repository of information. With her by His Highness' side, you can save a lot of ti. Moreover, in terms of human aesthetics, Margo could also look good. If Her Highness needs her to provide another service, believe , Margo's skills in that area are also first-rate. If His Highness is not satisfied with such a candidate, then I'm afraid I can't find a more suitable person. "
Allen gestured, "Alright, Lord lanie. Think carefully. I don't know what's good for anymore. Stop talking. I'm very satisfied with Miss Margo."
"Your Highness has yet to test my abilities. How can you know if you are satisfied?" Margo lowered her head slightly and said with a pun.
Alan was no longer a young man who had just made his debut. He smiled and said, "I will ask Miss Margo for advice when I have the chance."
"I'll be waiting, my lord," the marshal said as she moved backwards, making her look even more turbulent. "I'll be waiting, my lord."
Even lanie coughed softly to prevent Alan from being too embarrassed. The study suddenly beca noisy, and lanie couldn't help but frown when the door was pushed open. He saw a burly figure squeeze in. As soon as the other party entered the study room, the room imdiately beca crowded. "Hubble, when did you co back?" Ellen said joyfully.
It was Hubble of Gatu who squeezed into the study. He wore battle armor, and he could see a few strands of new paint on his armor. It seed that Hubble had fought quite a bit in the Black Gorge. He grinned and said, "I just arrived. After I finished drinking, I asked them to give my wine. If they don't give it, I can only call you."
Ellen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "You've had enough. You've just co back looking for a drink. You're almost a drunkard."
"How can we fight without wine?" Hubble patted his stomach.
Knowing that they had sothing to say, lani winked at Margo and quietly retreated. Allen walked to the Gatu man's side and clenched his fists, smashing down on his chest. "How's the situation at the Black Gorge base?"
'"Zhuo De has already taken over my work. I killed the chief of the barbarian settlent, and the rest of the chiefs won't be able to make it. Although Zhuo De is not much, it's not a problem to guard the base. I heard that you are going to Demoic Ring City, so you have to bring along this ti!" Zhuo De said. Said Hubble.
Alan nodded and said, "I wanted to bring you along. Did you co into contact with the Void Origin Energy?"
"Almost there." Hubble was obviously in a good mood, and the Gatu laughed loudly, "That barbarian chief wasn't a cheap lamp either. I fought him several tis." In the end, I fought with all my might to kill him. Fighting against experts was indeed the best way to improve. In the last battle, I seed to have sensed the existence of so sort of Origin Energy in the void. However, I was still a little too close to breaking through. If another expert asks to practice, I can probably make a breakthrough. "
"In that case, there will definitely be a lot of experts going to Demoic Ring City." Alan patted his head and said, "Oh right, co with to see the white."
"What happened to that brat?"
As the two walked out of the study, Alan said, "After I went to Mo Suo Star, Bai fell into a deep slumber. It should be advancent and tamorphosis. It's good that you're back too. Let's go wake him up together."
After leaving the City Lord's Mansion, he boarded a land vehicle and drove towards the north of Mokedan City. Bai did not live in the City Lord's Mansion. In fact, apart from Laura, Belmord, Hubble and the others lived on a street in the North District of Moktan. It was full of courtyard buildings, with main houses and courtyards, belonging to the wealthy areas of Mokedan.
Hubble, Belmord and Bai live together. When Alan went to Mo Suo, Hubble went to the Black Gorge, and Belmord left with Alan, leaving Bai Yi alone. After arriving at the house where the three of them lived, Alan felt the temperature drop as soon as he entered the courtyard. He looked at Hubble and the Gatu nodded. Obviously, it wasn't an illusion from Alan. If that was the case, it should be a phenonon caused by Bai.
Under the guidance of the servant, he went to the room where Bai Lie lived. As soon as he turned into the corridor, Alan yelled. The entire corridor was frozen. The servant leading the way whispered, "Lord Bai hasn't co out for almost a month. Ten days ago, we discovered that the corridor was frozen. We told Lord lanie, but Lord told us not to worry about it, so the ice is still here. Why don't we shovel the ice off for His Highness?"
"No need, you can go down." Alan waved his hand and sent the servant away before walking forward with Hubble. The deeper you go into the corridor, the thicker and thicker the ice becos. At the entrance, the ground was frozen, and there was only a thin layer of ice. But when he arrived in front of the white room, Alan saw that the ceiling had also frozen, and a layer of ice as thick as several centiters had ford in front of the door.
Hubble took a deep breath and said, "This boy Bai shouldn't be hibernating, right?"
Alan smiled and took a deep breath. "Bai, I'm back."
His voice wasn't loud, but it was extrely penetrating. He easily drilled through the door and echoed in the white room. A mont later, Alan felt the temperature getting colder and colder, and their breathing beca grey and cold. At this ti, soone outside shouted softly, "Heavens, it's snowing!"
Alan looked at the corridor window. Outside the window, the sky was dim and snow fell from the sky. Alan simply pushed open the window and looked out. In his eyes, the world was a different scene. Within the snowflakes, there were also sparkling ice crystals. Each ice crystal was filled with dense frost Origin Energy. Looking up into the sky, Alan was stunned. On the thick gray clouds in the sky, a gigantic Six Yang Flower pattern actually appeared. Countless ice crystals flew down from every line of the Six Yang Flower, illuminating the entire sky like stars!
