Free Web NovelChapter 3356: Chapter 3357: His Considerations
Thinking about it just makes one drunk with exasperation. Has the Sixth Elder really never seen her daughter-in-law make a move? And yet he can still let his own daughter come here to die!
"This Sixth Elder really has no will to live anymore. Since he wants to seek death, City Lord..."
She looked toward Lu Tianlan, who was sitting to the side without speaking.
"After tomorrow, send him on his way."
Lu Tianlan really didn’t want to put up with this Sixth Elder any longer, so he spoke directly.
The other elders, even if they’d done plenty of stupid things before, had all settled down now that Lu Tianfeng and Zui Yifeng had been wiped out; they had no more movements at all.
Only the Sixth Elder was still burrowing into the eye of power every day—looking for the Second Elder today, looking for the Sixth Elder tomorrow.
Among everyone in Sky City, aside from the useless ones, anyone with even a bit of ability—who hasn’t he gone to already? He’s gone through them all.
It’s just a pity that no one pays him any mind. No one is like him, completely lacking even the slightest self-awareness.
"Tomorrow..."
At the mention of tomorrow, the City Lord’s wife showed a doubtful expression.
"City Lord, in your view, can those few people Zimo chose really take on the position of elder?"
Those few people, even if they had followed Zimo and Sangsang to handle matters before and had gained some experience, were still, after all, quite young.
She truly feared they wouldn’t be able to handle the affairs of Sky City well. After all, as elders, the things they had to deal with on a daily basis were also extremely numerous.
"Zimo naturally has his own considerations." Lu Tianlan didn’t say anything more.
He certainly wasn’t going to say that his son’s idea was to have the former elders stay on to first oversee Sky City’s affairs, and slowly let Lin Changhong and the other three learn until they looked like something.
After all, he, the City Lord, was still here.
"Sigh, I really don’t understand what Zimo is thinking. He doesn’t want to be a perfectly good Junior City Lord, and instead wants to return to the Wild Lands to live his pastoral life, just planning to leave the little dumpling here."
They really were willing to part with him.
"The things Zimo doesn’t want to do, we can’t force him. And he’s grown up; he has his own ideas. If we force him to do what we want him to do, the result may not necessarily be a good thing."
Lu Tianlan said faintly.
Back then, it was because he listened to his father’s words that he appointed those few ambitious people as elders, which is how he brought on that Zui Yifeng.
And if his father hadn’t listened to his own grandfather, how would he have kept such a vicious person like Lu Tianfeng at his side, raising him like his own son?
Yet in the end, it was his own son who got bitten by such a vicious man.
"Those old men..."
The City Lord’s wife shook her head.
...
The next day.
The Sixth Elder ran around the whole night, wanting to go persuade the Great Elder, the Second Elder, and the others to follow him in resisting, to not hand over their elder positions.
But Elder Zhu seemed to have already anticipated this and sent people to block off all his paths; he didn’t manage to see a single elder.
After that, he went to several noble family heads in the city who had been on good terms with him before, asking them to help and see if they could go to the City Lord’s Mansion to oppose this matter.
But what came of it?
Those family heads were quite polite when they first saw him.
But once they heard that he was about to no longer be an elder, their expressions changed in an instant. You couldn’t see even a trace of the respect they’d shown him in the past on their faces anymore.
