Seeing that Chu Yan asked about this matter, the confidant of the city lord of Gumei City pondered for a while, and then answered Chu Yan, saying, "Yes... just as you thought, Chu Yan, our Gumei City is not very comfortable now."
"Even the comfort and strength of Ancient Plum City are based on contrast."
After a pause, the confidant of the lord of Gumei City took a deep breath and said.
Chu Yan nodded, but did not speak.
He still understands this truth.
As the saying goes, big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat dried shrimps.
For Xiami, the little fish is naturally scary enough.
But in the eyes of the little fish, the big fish is the most terrifying existence.
On top of the big fish, there are also natural enemies such as humans and monsters that cannot compete.
Therefore, the strength of Gumei City and the fact that slave traders like the Zhan family and the Chen family did not dare to provoke it did not mean that other forces did not dare to provoke it.
For example, Wan Guizong!
Wan Guizong is fully qualified to provoke Gumei City.
Not only are they qualified, but they have already come and gone with each other, killing each other so hard!
What happened today has actually happened many times in the past, so it is not surprising.
"This matter is actually a long story... In the final analysis, our city lord was born from the grassroots, without the backing of a powerful family."
The confidant of the lord of Gumei City smiled wryly and said.
Hearing this, Chu Yan thought of the fourth son.
The fourth son of the Zheng family.
The Zheng family in the fairy world does not know what kind of power it is, but it is not difficult to see that the other party intends to eat Dengxian Road, it should not be a small fish or shrimp.
This kind of family power is often inherited for a long time, and it is not easy to contend with it.
On the contrary, if they want to do something, it is much simpler!
The owner of Ancient Plum City obviously did not have such a background.
Even if he wasn't born as a casual cultivator, he should be grassroots and reckless. Anyway, he doesn't have a deep and powerful background.
"That's right, the current situation of our ancient Meicheng is far from being as comfortable as imagined. After all, the fairyland has been reshuffled, and there are grass everywhere, and the new imperial power is not stable. Our city lord can only suppress it on the bright side. The family, in fact, most of them are still unconvinced."
"Hehe, that's right. If it's me, I've been the king in Gumei City for many years, and someone suddenly surpasses me. I'm not happy if it's me."
"However, this position was won by our city lord, so what can they do if they are unhappy? It can't be done!"
The confidant of the lord of Gumei City said triumphantly.
Chu Yan thought about it, and said, "Then about the Wanlun King..."
"Cough, cough, cough... Brother Chu Yan, don't worry, this is exactly what I'm going to say next!"
The confidant of the city lord of Gumei City coughed a few times, and said: "Based on the above factors, and our city lord has defected halfway, so now Gumei City is singing and dancing on the surface, and there are undercurrents surging inside."
"As for betraying the Wanlun King... there is a reason for this incident!"
The confidant of the city lord of Gumei City spoke for Chu Yan, saying: "The lord of the city is originally a man with great ambitions. He followed Wanlun King just to plot a future, but Wanlun King... hehe, You have also seen that Wanlun King is an extremely self-willed person. Although the city lord works for Wanlun King, it is just that Wanlun King doesn't know what it means to judge the situation. In fact, cooperation is the best in the situation at that time. It's okay, but Wanlun King is too stubborn, if he persists, everyone will die!"
"The city lord doesn't want to die, and no one wants to die. Moreover, something happened to the Wanlun king, so the people who were under the care of the Wanlun king will definitely be implicated. Therefore, the city lord can only turn against him, in fact, for the sake of the overall situation ...This is for the common people!"
The confidant of the lord of Gumei City said with a long sigh.
Of course, Chu Yan believed half of these words at most, not all of them.
For example, for the common people in the world or something.
Chu Yan didn't think that a completely kind person could be the lord of a city.
The city owner can be kind, but he can't be so kind, that's all.
"All in all, our ancient plum city is waiting to be rebuilt, Chu Yan, if you join, you will definitely have a lot to do!"
"Not to mention, Chu Yan, you have already made a lot of contributions. When I return to Gumei City, I will definitely ask for credit for you."
"As well as Chu Yan, if you have any difficulties, you can definitely tell the city lord that the city lord will definitely try his best to recruit a talent like you!"
The confidant of the lord of Gumei City saw Chu Yan's extraordinaryness at a glance. He dared to say that in the future, Chu Yan would definitely have a place in the fairy world!
They are now recruiting Chu Yan to seize the opportunity, which is a great thing!
Chu Yan nodded slightly, tentatively agreeing.
It's not the first day he came out to make a living. He naturally knows that in the current situation in the fairy world, no matter what force he joins, there will be corresponding enemies. Anyway, it is impossible to have no enemies.
That being the case, in fact, Chu Yan can join any force that is not bad.
Moreover, Gumeicheng and him are really destined.
If it weren't for the ancient Meicheng, Chu Yan might still be entangled with the Zhan family and the Chen family.
Although Chu Yan was not afraid of them, he was just a newcomer, and he didn't want to show all his cards.
Therefore, it may be a good decision to join Gumei City.
Seeing Chu Yan nod his head, the confidants of the lord of Gumei City were also overjoyed.
After all, he is very optimistic about Chu Yan's potential.
In addition, it is a credit for him to recommend Chu Yan to the city lord, and he can also gain Chu Yan's personal friendship!
This is very rare.
If one day, Chu Yan can become one of the most powerful people in the fairy world, then his friendship today will be worth a lot!
Of course, he was just thinking about it. There is no such thing as a powerhouse in the fairy world, even the city lord may not have such a chance.
However, he is still very optimistic about Chu Yan's potential, thinking that Chu Yan really has a chance to rise, and it is not surprising that he will become a city lord in the future!
All in all, this kind of friendship does not require any capital, so why not do it.
Afterwards, everyone took a rest and continued their journey back to Ancient Plum City.
On the way, the old man and others approached again and again, asking the cronies of the city lord of Gumei City, whether there is anyone in the city lord's mansion, they can join, and serve the city lord sincerely.
Regarding this, the confidantes of the city lord of Gumei City laughed and said nothing, neither said yes nor no.
The reason for this is because the strength of the old man and the others is really too poor.
Although it is in the Dao Fruit Realm, compared with Chu Yan, it is more than a little bit worse!
Although they are short of people in the City Lord's Mansion of Ancient Plum City, they still don't want anyone who comes.
