Wedding Night: I Am Forced To Marry A Dragon Girl
Chapter 1224 - Chapter 1224 Chapter 1224 This kid knows how to play the game

Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: This kid knows how to play the game! Chapter 1224: Chapter 1224: This kid knows how to play the game! Jiang Xiaobai had been testing everything since he arrived in this city of Wu Wang!

He was testing what sort of place Wu Wang was, the strength of its residents, and most importantly, how the City Lord’s Manor perceived him!

The idea of starting from the bottom and gradually understanding and elevating his status was something Jiang Xiaobai was too lazy to pursue,

He would have been willing under normal circumstances, but now time was not on his side!

He still had too many things to do!

He had to uncover the secrets of the Nine Heavens Continent, the prismatic space, figure out a way to contact Ao Yan and Ao City, and he needed to enhance his strength to mess with the Qinglan Army.

And most importantly, to explore the path to immortality!

Not completing that epic quest would truly be a waste!

Not to mention anything else, just the ten billion prestige points were enough to sway Jiang Xiaobai.

This task must be completed!

He needed to investigate!

Of course, the most important thing was that with his current strength, he didn’t need to start from the bottom–he was not that idle.

Soon, under Ao Ji’s guidance, Jiang Xiaobai entered the City Lord’s Manor. The decor here was entirely different from the outside, clearly showing that City Lord Luo Gu Tian wanted to style himself as the lord of a great dynasty.

The standards of the City Lord’s Manor were virtually no different from those of a great city.

Worth mentioning was, when he had just followed Ao Ji into the City Lord’s Manor, those guards looked at him with very strange expressions!

It was a mix of envy and disdain.

And most of all, it was filled with contempt!

Thinking back to the crowd’s reaction on the streets when they saw Ao Ji, Jiang Xiaobai roughly guessed what kind of presence Ao Ji held,

Just as he was pondering this, Ao Ji had already led him in front of a study’s door.

“Young Master Defa, this is where the City Lord resides. The City Lord wishes to meet you alone, so I will excuse myself now.”

“Once you leave, I will arrange everything for you!”

As Ao Ji spoke, she even cast a flirtatious glance at Jiang Xiaobai.

Jiang Xiaobai felt a chill!

This country girl has issues!

She must be the reincarnation of a seducing spirit, way too flirty!

Ao Ji turned and left, and as Jiang Xiaobai looked at the grand doors of the study, his eyebrows slightly furrowed.

He sensed the presence of a Daluo Golden Immortal inside.

“The City Lord is just a Daluo Golden Immortal, it seems this won’t be too troublesome after all.”

“Now I can’t confront a Daluo, but once I return to being a Golden Immortal and comprehend the heavenly way, a Daluo shouldn’t be a problem.”

“First, let’s see the situation, find a place to establish a foothold, then plan subsequent moves.”

Thinking thus, Jiang Xiaobai then pushed open the doors of the study.

Inside, Luo Gu Tian, this robust man, was pretending to be a profound and knowledgeable city lord, holding a book as he read.

Jiang Xiaobai’s eyelids twitched.

Big brother, can you hold the book the right way when you read?

You’ve got it upside down!

With just one glance Jiang Xiaobai knew what kind of person he was dealing with.

“Here you are, please have a seat.”

Upon seeing Jiang Xiaobai, Luo Gu Tian slowly put down the book, his face adorned with a genial smile.

If it wasn’t for the still lingering bandit vibe, Jiang Xiaobai might actually have believed he was a real city lord.

“I’ve met the City Lord. I heard the City Lord summoned me here; may I request a minor official position?”

“Hahaha, Young Master Defa really is as straightforward as the rumors say!”

Luo Gu Tian laughed heartily, “You get right to the point as soon as you arrive, not bad, I really appreciate that!”

“I hear Young Master Defa comes from the three thousand worlds? However, that War God Sect isn’t around here, and it’s quite a distance from this place.”

Luo Gu Tian said with a beaming smile.

Jiang Xiaobai still stuck to the same story as before, that he had entered a spatial passage and, inexplicably caught in a turbulent flow, awoke to find himself here.

He also disclosed his conflicts with the Qinglan Army on the Frost Plains, his face contorted with immense anger as he spoke!

“What does it matter if I come from the Three Thousand Worlds? Why look down on me? If it weren’t for my cunning in planning and escaping from those Qinglan Army men, I might well have been killed!”

“Lord Mayor, may I ask what our relationship with the Qinglan Army is?”

Jiang Xiaobai steered the conversation in that direction.

Upon hearing this, the smile on Luo Gu Tian’s face became even more intense. He truly was a piece of garbage from the Three Thousand Worlds, seemingly inexperienced in everything.

His emotions were written all over his face, so easy to deal with!

“Heh, Young Master Defa, no need to be nervous, perhaps you have already heard, Military King City and the Dynasty of Su Sea have never gotten along.”

“Rest assured on this point, my Unwitting City stands on the same side as you.”

“However, Young Master Defa, you are quite the emotional one, didn’t you just kill someone in my city?”

Jiang Xiaobai knew this was the other party’s suspicion of him.

And it was exactly what he had intended!

This was his own deception, having imperfections made you easier to control. If everything were impeccable, it would have the opposite effect.

“In truth, these people came up demanding protection money, and spoke of the supremacy of strength. How could I indulge him?”

“He was weaker than me, and deserved to die at my hands. That’s exactly what Lady Ao Ji said!”

Jiang Xiaobai spoke earnestly, like a simpleton, then hesitated before adding, “Lord Mayor, do you need money? I won’t say much, but I definitely have enough money, including three hundred thousand top-grade immortal stones. If you need them, feel free to take them!”

Three hundred thousand top-grade immortal stones?

Luo Gu Tian almost couldn’t hold himself back!

That was three hundred thousand!

Top-grade immortal stones!

The Upper Realm, unlike the Three Thousand Worlds, where Jiang Xiaobai swept through numerous powers using his methods, even securing many benefits from the Immortal Alliance.

Not just three hundred thousand, he could take out a hundred times more!

And in the Nine Heavens Continent, the competition was fiercer, and there were more strong figures.

The value of top-grade immortal stones was much higher than in the Three Thousand Worlds.

If the rules of Heaven in the Three Thousand Worlds were not different, countless more strong figures would have emerged, their numbers potentially crushing the Nine Heavens Continent.

At that moment, Luo Gu Tian suppressed the excitement in his heart that almost made him smack Jiang Xiaobai on the spot, clearing his throat.

“So, you’re saying your strength isn’t bad?”

“Decent enough. Ordinary Golden Immortals don’t last a round against me!”

Jiang Xiaobai spoke indifferently, “By the way, I wonder what position you plan to offer me?”

As he spoke, he placed a storage ring on the desk of the study.

Luo Gu Tian casually touched it and almost got the fright of his life.

Inside were one hundred thousand top-grade immortal stones!

My goodness!

This kid really knows how to do business!

At this moment, Luo Gu Tian realized that the person not only possessed strong skills but was also shrewd. It truly would be a pity to simply kill him.

With such a simple-minded approach, using him slightly could be better than killing the goose that lays the golden eggs,

especially since Jiang Xiaobai had demonstrated decent strength!

A level just below a celestial immortal easily slaughtering high-ranking Golden Immortals, such beings were rare talents even in Unwitting City.

If this kid was really dedicated to Unwitting City and nurtured well, he could become a great asset!

After some thought, he felt that both Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Ji looked quite promising.

Immediately, he exclaimed,

“Young Master Defa, rest assured, as the lord of this city, I value talented individuals. With your strength, you are qualified to be Ao Ji’s deputy!”

“From today, you are the deputy of one of the four fierce generals of my city. Here is your token!”
