Free Web NovelChapter 3359: Chapter 3360: As Easy as Drinking Water
"Junior City Lord, esteemed Elders, the ones by your side are still children. Are you sure you want to entrust such significant Elder roles of Sky City to them?"
Lin Changhong can barely pass; he doesn’t look too young.
But what about Yue Chushui and Yin Baiqing? How old are they really? Are they to manage so many affairs of Sky City?
It doesn’t seem reliable, does it?
Especially considering there’s a woman here. Who does she think she is, daring to assume an Elder role?
"Indeed, Junior City Lord, this Young Master Lin is from the Arid Lands, how can he assume the Elder role? And this young lady, she’s also from the Arid Lands, moreover, she’s a woman, she..."
Third Elder echoed in agreement, stepping forward.
"Is Third Elder looking down on women?"
Before he could finish speaking, Elder Zhu coldly interrogated him, the meaning in her words was unmistakably clear—she was telling him to shut his mouth.
"Uh!"
Third Elder was choked with fear, immediately breaking out in a cold sweat.
How could he forget that Elder Zhu is a woman, and she can be an Elder, so other women can be too.
"Elder Zhu, I didn’t mean to look down upon women, but they come from the Arid Lands. How can they become Elders of Sky City?"
"The Elder roles of Sky City have always been filled by the capable. If they possess this ability and are prepared to reside permanently on Illusion Continent, then they have the qualification."
Elder Yan spoke up.
"But this... the citizens of Sky City won’t accept them!" Second Elder stepped forward as well, refuting.
"Anyone around me whom the citizens do not accept can come to me directly, and I will personally explain things to them, so there’s no need for you... former Elders to worry."
The six Elders: "..."
Well, now they haven’t even organized any handover yet, and they’ve already become former Elders.
This Junior City Lord surely isn’t easy to deal with.
Especially his combat capacity; merely standing there seems to suffocate them.
How didn’t they notice, after just a few days, that the Junior City Lord’s strength has made quite an advance? How does cultivation seem as effortless as drinking plain water?
Clearly, he’s just a youth, yet he seemingly has the potential to crush these old men.
Ugh!
The Great Elder silently cursed.
What does potential mean? It’s obvious he’s already crushed them!
Look at Six, earlier he could speak a few words to them, but since the Junior City Lord arrived, he doesn’t dare utter even a fart, and even hides far away.
What do you call this? Exhibit A of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, right?
And yet, they still talk about ’potential’? This Junior City Lord is definitely not someone easy to associate with.
If they make a clear handover and leave now, perhaps it’s for the best; if they wait too long, they might end up sacrificing themselves here.
So, while they’re still able, quickly hand over their duties and depart.
"Junior City Lord, how could it trouble you over our own matters? Any Elder who is dissatisfied can come to learn one or two things, any of us would be happy to oblige."
Yin Baiqing gave the Elders a good-natured smile, trying to appear as harmless and kind as possible.
This well-behaved neighborly little brother look, made Lin Changhong roll his eyes.
