Qian Quan, upon hearing Ye Ling's words, hastily replied, his face almost scorched, but a trace of pleading could still be seen in his eyes.
What Qian Quan said was indeed the truth; he was now like a fish on the chopping board unless Ye Ling decided to spare him. Otherwise, he must serve loyally under Nangong Hua.
Ye Ling glanced at him indifferently, then looked towards Nangong Hua and smiled slightly, saying, "City Lord Nangong, do you agree to let these people join your ranks?"
When Ye Ling said this, Qian Quan and the other four elders imdiately widened their eyes, all staring eagerly at Nangong Hua, hoping she would agree.
If she agreed, they wouldn't have to be tornted by Ye Ling anymore, which was simply liberation!
Although Nangong Hua wore a mask, anyone could hear the joy in her voice, not because Qian Quan and the others were willing to join her Eastern Domain, but because Ye Ling was actually willing to help her, how could she not be excited?
Nangong Hua nodded repeatedly, saying, "Young Master Ye, I'm overjoyed that you are willing to help my Eastern Domain. How could I possibly refuse?"
"Young Master Ye, since Qian Quan and the others are willing to follow , can we now talk about cooperation?"
Ye Ling smiled, making a welcoming gesture, "Of course, City Lord Nangong can set three rules with Qian Quan and the others. As long as they abide by the agreent, then I won't trouble them any further."
"However, if they break the agreent, then they shouldn't bla for not being courteous!"
Ye Ling's gaze swept across Qian Quan and the others like the blade of a knife, the sudden chill making their hearts quiver.
They knew Ye Ling was not joking.
"Rest assured, Young Master Ye, we will absolutely not betray City Lord Nangong. From now on, we will regard City Lord Nangong as our highest priority! Should there be any orders, we will ascend mountains and descend into seas of flas without hesitation!"
Qian Quan and the others knelt down in unison, kowtowing to Nangong Hua, each expressing their loyalty.
After all, Ye Ling was soone capable of killing a Saint-level powerhouse, and what was even more breathtaking was that Ye Ling had only just reached the cusp of the Saint realm.
Once Ye Ling broke through to the Saint realm, who else could possibly stand in Ye Ling's way among those at the sa level?
Right now, though Qian Quan and the others had lost their dignity, what they had gained was a strong and powerful leg to stand on, and by any asure, this deal was a win!
"Very good, I hope all of you will keep your promises!"
Ye Ling nodded, then cupped his hands towards Nangong Hua, saying, "City Lord Nangong, now that these people have submitted to you, the managent of this land is entrusted to you from now on."
"The City of Sin, given City Lord Nangong's strength, should soon be unified under one rule. Then, there won't be four separate lords of the Eastern, Southern, Western, and Northern domains anymore. I will leave this role in your hands."
Hearing Ye Ling's words, a tumultuous wave surged in the hearts of Qian Quan and the others.
They never expected that Ye Ling would so readily hand over the managent of the City of Sin to Nangong Hua.
In their hearts, Nangong Hua was marked as a force not to be trifled with—after all, becoming the lord of the City of Sin was no small title.
When Nangong Hua heard Ye Ling's words, she was montarily stunned. She had not expected Ye Ling to entrust her with such an important matter and to give her the managent rights to the City of Sin. Wasn't that a little too generous?
"Young Master Ye Ling, this...this isn't right, is it? I don't have the strength to manage the City of Sin; if you entrust the authority to , I'm afraid I'll disappoint you!"
Nangong Hua felt sowhat anxious. Although it was a lucrative opportunity, she wasn't confident in her ability to handle it and feared any slip-ups, which could result in her losing much more than she bargained for!
"It's okay, I will make proper arrangents for this matter. I believe you will certainly be up to the task. Moreover, rember not to let down my expectations," Ye Ling said calmly.
After hearing Ye Ling's words, Nangong Hua imdiately felt a wave of relief wash over her.
She had indeed been worried that Ye Ling would transfer the managent rights to her so readily, but now it seed she had worried needlessly.
"However, I do hope that the systems in this City of Sin should be thoroughly reford. No matter what, it still stands on the territory of the Dragon Nation."
"Although the City of Sin was infamous in the past, I hope that from now on, under your rule, ah no, I should say under the managent of City Lord Nangong, everything will develop in a positive direction. Is that possible?"
Ye Ling looked at Nangong Hua and slowly asked.
Upon hearing Ye Ling's words, Nangong Hua quickly stood up and took a deep breath.
She then bowed respectfully to Ye Ling: "Thank you for your cultivation, Young Master Ye Ling!"
Ye Ling waved his hand dismissively, then turned and left, but he did not forget to leave a reminder, "Oh, and City Lord Nangong, between us, it's better to just call Ye Ling. This title feels too distant!"
At Ye Ling's words, Nangong Hua's face flushed with embarrassnt, but behind her mask,
no one could see her awkward state.
Watching Ye Ling's receding figure, Nangong Hua couldn't help but sigh internally; Ye Ling was indeed extraordinary.
In such a short ti, he had killed the long-established Mid-Domain ruler, Li Wuji, and handed over the entire City of Sin's managent to her. If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she might not have believed it.
"I'm going back to my room. If there's anything you need, you can co to find . No matter what it is, you can ask!"
Ye Ling said to Nangong Hua in his calm manner, then strode out of the inn, leaving behind the stunned Nangong Hua standing in place.
Nangong Hua stood still for a long ti before she ca to her senses, and then she began to thodically take care of the aftermath of the events that had taken place.
anwhile, Ye Ling and his companions wandered aimlessly down the streets.
Ling Feng couldn't help but sigh, "Boss, we've settled the matters of the City of Sin, and your True Qi has recovered. Are we really preparing to leave the City of Sin now?"
Ye Ling nodded, "Unless there's an unexpected event, we'll stay here no more than two days before we set off back to the Dragon Nation. During this ti, I will take care of the City of Sin's affairs, and then I'll take you all away!"
Ye Ling had no intention of staying an extra day; after all, the crisis in the City of Sin was temporarily relieved, but in the future, he still needed to be cautious to avoid running into enemies unexpectedly.
The group arrived at the snack street of the City of Sin, where the variety of street food dazzled them. Aguzha's eyes widened in wonder: "Wow, so many snacks!"
