The Cultivator's partner went off track all the way

Chapter 249 The dark tide is surging

"Junior Sister Tang, he didn't embarrass you, did he?" Ji Chongguang saw Chu Tianshu walking in the direction Tang Yue left. Thinking of the competition between the two, he was worried that Tang Yue would be embarrassed, so he also chased him out.

"It's okay, he won't do anything to me in the City Lord's Mansion."

"That's good."

Tang Yue saw that Ji Chongguang had no intention of saying goodbye, so she took the initiative to say, "Senior Brother Ji, let me take you around."

Ji Chongguang stayed for a short time and was leaving late at night. Other friends would stay for a day or two, and they rested in the guest room after the banquet.

There is still a little time, and it is also necessary to entertain the Young Palace Master of the Shangqing Palace.

The night market in Kunwu City is not as big as Wuji Mountain. There is only one long street, but it has a special style. There are lights made of luminous fluorite hanging in the sky, and the changing colors add a little romance to the whole street. Many couples Meet here.

There are also large and small red lanterns hanging on the street, which are distributed free of charge to the people in the city. People will choose a red lantern to go home, festive and auspicious, and celebrate the New Year.

"Brother, I custom-made the lighting and lanterns here from Tiangong Refining Pavilion, what do you think?"

"It looks very good. It seems that the materials are not expensive, but the effect is very good. It has attracted many people to visit the night market and brought a lot of income to the store."

"As expected of Senior Brother Ji, this is my intention. I hope that the people in the city can earn more money and have a good year."

Ji Chongguang found that people can take away the lanterns on both sides of the street at will, and there are still people who are responsible for hanging the lanterns on their hearts. He asked, "How do you ensure that no one will take more of these lanterns?"

"There are people on this street to help watch, they, like me, hope that everyone in the city can get a lantern, share the joy, look down on those who want to get more, and will come forward to reprimand these people , to prevent them from taking advantage. And few people would do such unlucky things during the New Year's Eve."

The four words of living and working in peace and contentment flashed in Ji Chongguang's mind, "You are really suitable to be the young city lord if you can benefit the common people."

"Haha, I'm picking up people's teeth." These strategies are often used in modern municipal engineering, and she can see them every day, so it's not difficult to learn some.

Senior Brother Ji asked seriously: "Which city lord has done similar things, or where have you seen it?"

"Uh, I forgot, I just remember someone doing it."

Ji Chongguang always felt that Junior Sister Tang knew a lot of things that others didn't, but he never thought that Tang Yue was a soul from another world. He only thought that she had seen it from some mysterious inheritance or Tiangong Xianyuan.

"Junior Sister, it's not easy for you to succeed to the position of Young City Lord. If you have any difficulties, you can come to me."

Tang Yue giggled, "Thank you, brother." With the support of the Young Palace Master of Shangqing Palace, she was more confident.

After sending Ji Chongguang away, Tang Yue returned to the mansion, and Tang City Lord was waiting for her at Ruoshuiju as expected.

"You said the truth at the banquet, do you have plans for the position of the city lord?"

"Father, what are you talking about? I am the daughter of the city lord's wife, and I am the legal heir of Kunwu City."

Tang Wenhua was a little surprised that she could say these words without changing her face. At this moment, he looked at his second daughter again.

"You know that I intend to train Chu Tianshu to be his successor."

"Father, I really don't understand. It's not that I don't have strength. Why do you have to give our family business to outsiders, and his surname is not Tang?"

Tang Wenhua paused, can he let others know that he actually has the intention of letting Chu Tianshu marry him?
"Chu Tianshu's swordsmanship is superb, he is a genius who is rare in a century, and his luck is amazing. Only he can be the heir to keep the prosperity of Kunwu City for a thousand years."

"Father, I don't like to hear your words. I am a 12-year-old Nascent Soul that is rare in a thousand years, and my junior brother is a sword bone that is one in a million. How can Chu Tianshu be stronger than us?"

"You were just lucky for a while. In the past, your spiritual roots were only low-grade three spiritual roots, so I never thought about such a thing. Chongyun is too young, and I don't know what the future will hold."

"You also said that I don't know what will happen in the future. Now that I am a Nascent Soul cultivator and a heavenly five-element spiritual root, I will definitely not be as good as Chu Tianshu."

These words made Tang Wenhua a little dazed, because he had always regarded Tang Yue as a drag, and it would be nice to be able to marry off in exchange for benefits. He never thought that one day she would be stronger than the Chu Tianshu he picked, and the prejudice in his heart It didn't adjust for a while.

At this time, I was suddenly reminded that my youngest daughter has become an equally outstanding monk who can be compared with the favored sons of various factions, and I still feel a little uncomfortable.

After a moment of silence, Tang Wenhua said: "Even if you have a higher level of cultivation and you have received kendo empowerment, you are still not as talented as his kendo, not to mention that you don't have a firm heart to practice kendo. Kunwu City is a sword city, why? Can there be a city lord who doesn't practice swordsmanship?"

"Father, I think what you said is wrong."

Tang Wenhua said coldly: "What's wrong?" He was repeatedly refuted by Tang Yue, feeling that the majesty of his father and the city lord had been offended, and he was a little annoyed.

"Kunwu City has never stipulated what way the city lord must practice. What he cares about is the successor's governance ability and whether he can carry forward Kunwu's inheritance. Even Xuanyuan Mountain has the first non-cultivation of swordsmanship. Kunwu City Why not? Besides, I believe Senior Brother Chu will definitely think about the succession of Kunwu City, with him as the successor elder, what are you worried about?"

Tang Yue's words were based on Tang Wenhua's logic, if she was not given any benefit, but she was required to contribute to Kunwu City, then Chu Tianshu could do the same, and she believed that she was much more generous than Tang Wenhua, so she wouldn't really refuse to give good.

"I see that you intend to marry sister Tang Wan to senior brother Chu. With this relationship, I believe he will teach the astonishingly talented successor of Kunwu swordsmanship in the future, as well as junior brother Mu Chongyun. In the future, we will stand side by side, hand in hand, think in one place, work hard in one place, and forge ahead for the prosperity of Kunwu City, go through fire and water!"

When Shui Yingrou heard this, she almost spit out the tea. Ayue was too good at talking. Tang Wenhua had thought of such a scene, but the person who called the shots was changed, so I don't know how he would feel.

Tang Wenhua really couldn't accept it, "You are a woman, and I'm afraid it will be a bit hard to take on this important task. It would be better to be the mistress of a rich family."

Speaking of this matter, Tang Yue's conditions are good now, and it is not difficult to marry into a rich family, if she works harder.It would be even better if Lu Lingyi and Ji Chongguang could be taken down.

"For thousands of years in the world of cultivating immortals, there are countless female masters, female chiefs, and female city masters. They have all made contributions to their sect. Father, you actually look down on female cultivators in this world?"

This is a bit of an understatement. Although the world of cultivating immortals still has the bad habit of looking down on women, with the efforts of countless powerful female cultivators, people in the world dare not speak out even if they have this idea.

Now the city lord of Huayue City, the first seat in Xianyuan Mountain is a woman. If Tang Wenhua's words of looking down on women spread, they will surely offend these people.

"That's not what I mean, don't talk nonsense, I just don't want you to work too hard."

"Father, I am not afraid of hard work. During these years of studying in Wuji Mountain, I have learned the truth that with greater ability comes greater responsibility. I am willing to shoulder the great trust of the people, focus on the great development plan, and be a young city lord that the people want."

Shui Yingrou chimed in: "Indeed, the top-grade spirit stone donated by Ayue has built many houses for the ascetics and the poor people in the city to live in, and relieved their difficulties for a while. Now everyone in the city is full of praise. Believe she can."

Tang Wenhua heard that his youngest daughter was already accumulating word of mouth among the people, and he became more vigilant. He looked at Shui Yingrou, "You also support her, and you are against me?"

Shui Yingrou said lightly: "Why can't I support my daughter? Why don't you support my daughter?"

The reason why Tang Wenhua insisted on choosing Chu Tianshu is that everyone knows that if Tang Yue becomes the city lord, Kunwu City will be closer to Wuji Mountain, and it is very likely to become a subordinate city of Wuji Mountain in the future.

This is also the reason why Tang Wenhua deliberately suppressed Shui Yingrou and supported Zixiao Pavilion and Chu Tianshu, the heirs with a foreign surname, for so many years.

He never thought that Tang Yue would be able to compete now. After the news got out, Wuji Mountain would definitely support Tang Yue, but Chu Tianshu didn't have a strong backup, and the situation would develop in the direction he least wanted.
