Chapter 1823: The Weird City Lord

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
In the City Lord’s mansion, Qngfeng Li also met some powerful self-cultivators, most of which were emperors of low tier kingdoms.
The weakest of them were half-step spirit monarch realm masters while some were first level spirit monarch realm masters ranking among the top 200 on the spirit monarch realm Masters List. They had all gathered in the City Lord’s mansion, which showed their respect for the City Lord.
However, the Sky Wolf Emperor furrowed his brows slightly and his eyes glinted. It seemed something had occurred to him.
Qingfeng Li noticed his expression and asked, “Elder, what do you have on your mind?”
The Sky Wolf Emperor said, “Qingfeng Li, have you found something strange about this wave of demonic beasts?”
Baffled, Qingfeng Li shook his head.
The Sky Wolf Emperor explained, “Qingfeng Li, in my 1,000 years of life I have experienced many things and I think this wave of demonic beasts is part of someone’s scheme.”
Qingfeng Li asked in a low voice, “Elder, do you think the City Lord has anything to do with this scheme?”
Nodding, the Sky Wolf Emperor whispered, “Qingfeng Li, just think about it. The City Lord is a third level spirit monarch realm master, more powerful than you. And there are also emperors from other kingdoms.
Each of the emperors is powerful and even the hostile vice City Lord is a second level spirit monarch realm master. But when the wave of demonic beasts came, they didn’t go down and kill them. Instead, they sent you.”
Hearing the Sky Wolf Emperor’s words, Qingfeng Li was hit by a wave of fear and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
Qingfeng Li was a very intelligent man. When he was back in Earth, many of his enemies had tried to scheme against him or trap him but each time he had found them out before it was too late.
He agreed with Sky Wolf Emperor’s theory because it was true that only he had been fighting the 100,000 demonic beasts.
Other self-cultivators only attacked from the distance while the powerful City Lord and vice City Lord had remained aloof from the fight with the demonic beasts.
Qingfeng Li snorted and said, “Elder, since the City Lord wants to hold the celebration banquet, he will have to show to all the self-cultivators that it was I who defeated the demonic beasts. Don’t worry. Let’s just go in and see what his intention is.”
Striding forward, Qingfeng Li held his anger in check.
Shortly, they entered a big hall with an area of at least 10,000 square meters. In the hall were thousands of tables made with hard black rocks.
On the tables were placed all kinds of delicacies, including demonic beast meats, vegetarian dishes made with spirit fruits and herbs and some wine. One could smell the delicious aroma of meat and wine from afar.
At least a thousand self-cultivators were sitting at the tables. They were leaders of sects and major forces, and emperors, princes, and princesses from kingdoms.
Glancing around, Qingfeng Li found all the seats were taken. What did it mean that they did not reserve a seat for him?
What was the celebration banquet for? It was supposed to celebrate the victory over the wave of demon feasts. But they did not reserve a seat for Qingfeng Li, the biggest hero in the battle. Was it meant to be an insult to him?
Disregarding all this, Qingfeng Li strode forward to a middle-aged man sitting at the center position of a table in the forefront of the hall.
With slightly dark skin, coarse face, a high-bridged nose, big eyes, and bushy eyebrows, the middle-aged man emitted an overwhelming presence.
Keeping a good distance from him, no one seemed to dare to sit next to him. Even the vice City Lord sat at a lower place at the table, not daring to be too close to him.
The middle-aged man was Meng Lin, the City Lord of Emerald Lake City.
Seeing Qingfeng Li enter the hall, the surrounding people became quiet since they felt something was not right between Qingfeng Li and the City Lord.
Looking at Meng Lin before him, Qingfeng Li asked, “City Lord, what do you want with me here?”
Meng Lin lifted his head and looked at Qingfeng Li quietly with no emotion on his face. He said lightly, “It’s simple. Today you are the hero of Emerald Lake City since you contributed the most to dealing with the wave of demonic beasts. I am holding the banquet to celebrate your victory.”
With a forced smile, Qingfeng Li said, “City Lord, if you are celebrating my victory, how come there is no seat for me? Where do I sit?”
Meng Lin laughed and said, “Qingfeng Li, didn’t you see the seat next to me? It’s specially reserved for you. Since you are the hero today, you sit next to me.”
To Qingfeng Li’s surprise, he did see a stone chair next to Meng Lin.
He had thought it was reserved for the City Lord’s lady or his son instead of himself.
“Come on, Qingfeng Li, sit next to me so we can talk better.”
Turning, Meng Lin was all smiles while he beckoned for Qingfeng Li to sit next to him.
Qingfeng Li thought Meng Lin’s smile was faked and forced, an act in front of the watching self-cultivators due to his heroic feat of killing the demonic beasts.
Instead of sitting down, Qingfeng Li said to Meng Lin, “City Lord, my people also need seats, otherwise I won’t stay at this celebration banquet.”
Frowning, a chilling light flashed in Meng Lin’s eyes, but it disappeared quickly before anyone else could see it.
With a wave of his hand, Meng Lin said to the 4-5 people sitting to his left, “Get up and offer your seats to Qingfeng Li’s people.”
They were important figures in the City Lord mansion while some of them were even elders.
But at the City Lord’s order, they stood up obediently and offered their seats to the people with Qingfeng Li.
With a slight smile, Qingfeng Li said, “Elder Sky Wolf Emperor, Mengyao Xu and Ya Yun, you take seats while I talk to the City Lord.”
While everyone watched in astonishment, Qingfeng Li strode to the chair next to the City Lord and sat down without further ado.
Meng Lin yelled, “Serve the wine! Today Qingfeng Li is the star of our celebration. He killed the wave of demonic beasts and did a big favor for Emerald Lake City. Let’s toast for him to show our gratitude.”
He lifted his wineglass and the rest 1,000 self-cultivators followed suit and lifted their wineglasses to congratulate Qingfeng Li. But the smiles on their faces looked forced.
Indifferently, Qingfeng Li said, “Thank you, everyone, for giving me the chance to kill 100,000 demonic beasts alone. I will drink up this glass of wine.”
