Silence.
Following Ye Langtian's death, the entire Guang 'an Prefecture fell silent.
The people of Guang 'an Prefecture stood far away and watched the situation. They looked at Lin Xiao with fear in their eyes. They were afraid that Lin Xiao would kill them if he did not agree with them.
Noticing the attitude of the people, a helpless smile appeared on Lin Xiao's lips. He raised his voice and said, "At the critical moment of life and death, he used all of you as a shield. If such a person is allowed to leave alive, do you think he will let all of you who have seen him in such a sorry state go?"
This …
The citizens of Guang 'an Prefecture were stunned.
Thinking of how Ye Langtian used them as a shield without hesitation and how he betrayed them after Qiu An's death, they felt that such a person was indeed untrustworthy.
Once he left, there would be no end of trouble!
"County Chief Lin is right!
We can't let such a person leave alive! "
"Yes, we all saw it. Ye Langtian was plotted against by Qiu An and died. County Chief Lin killed Qiu An to avenge Ye Langtian!"
"Yes, yes, yes, we all saw it!"
"Luckily, County Chief Lin, or Guang 'an Prefecture would be finished!"
…
Knowing that Lin Xiao killed Qiu An Prefecture out of consideration for them, the citizens of Guang 'an Prefecture looked at Lin Xiao with gentleness in their eyes. One after another, they concluded the matter.
They were not fools.
They could tell who was thinking for them.
Lin Xiao nodded and handed the Memory Crystal in his hand to the messenger. He instructed, "Make a trip to the imperial city and hand this over to the imperial court."
This way, even if the imperial family really sent people to investigate, the citizens would all agree and the royal family would not be able to do anything about it.
He believed that the imperial family of Beiwu Kingdom were not fools. After seeing the contents of the Memory Crystal, they would not make things difficult for him.
As for the Third Prince, no matter how unhappy he was, he would not dare to do anything to him.
After settling this matter, Lin Xiao began to take over the affairs of Guang 'an Prefecture.
With the deterrence of Yang Jian and Juling Shen, the soldiers of Guang 'an Prefecture did not dare to resist at all. They were recruited by Lin Xiao without any struggle.
What a joke!
Even the subordinates of the Third Marquis were killed instantly. What could these ordinary soldiers do?
Lin Xiao had suddenly become the uncrowned king of Guang 'an Prefecture. Even though he was not officially the governor of Guang' an Prefecture, he was already the governor of Guang 'an Prefecture in everyone's eyes.
"Lin brat, you're really something!"
When Chu Tiannan arrived at Guang 'an Prefecture, Lin Xiao had already taken care of everything. Seeing how obedient Guang' an Prefecture was to Lin Xiao, Chu Tiannan could not help but sigh.
Once upon a time, Guang 'an Prefecture suppressed Jiangchu Prefecture in every aspect. Qiu An even tried to annex Jiangchu Prefecture and attacked him many times. However, in the end, it was Jiangchu Prefecture that annexed Guang' an Prefecture. Qiu An had schemed and plotted but in the end, he still ended up with a life and death carefree.
When Lin Xiao heard Chu Tiannan's words, his lips curled into a domineering smile. He said leisurely, "Guang 'an Prefecture is nothing.
My future is far greater than this! "
"You …"
When Chu Tiannan heard Lin Xiao's words, he was shocked.
If this was heard by outsiders, it would be considered treacherous. After all, the Imperial City was above the Prefecture City. Was Lin Xiao planning to rebel?
However, Chu Tiannan naturally would not ask.
Just as the two of them were talking, the Imperial City suddenly sent someone over. Chu Tiannan immediately brought Lin Xiao to receive the decree.
The person who came to announce the decree was an expert at the peak of the Conjoint Body Realm.
With his cultivation level and status as a citizen of the Imperial City, he could still do whatever he wanted in a small Prefecture City. However, in front of Lin Xiao, he was unusually respectful.
Now, the news in the Imperial City was that Lin Xiao was actually a spy planted by the Emperor of Beiwu Country. This time, the Emperor of Beiwu Country had instructed him to do this in order to suppress the power of the Third Prince.
Therefore, although the Third Prince was furious, he could only swallow his anger and vent his anger on the precious porcelain at home alone.
Even the Third Prince could not do anything to Lin Xiao. How could a small figure like him dare to be disrespectful?
At that thought, the envoy bowed deeply to Lin Xiao and said respectfully, "Congratulations, Prefectural Governor Lin."
"Thank you."
Lin Xiao's tone was very calm.
Although he was also very curious why the envoy was so respectful to him, he was someone who would do great things in the future. Why would he care about this?
However, in the envoy's eyes, this was not the case.
He was a dignified envoy from the Imperial City. His attitude was so respectful to Lin Xiao that it could even be said to be humble. However, Lin Xiao accepted it calmly.
What did this prove?
It proved that there must be someone behind Lin Xiao!
Therefore, the envoy was even more certain of his guess. Lin Xiao must have been sent by the Emperor of Beiwu Country to suppress the Third Prince.
Thinking of this, his attitude became even more humble.
Lin Xiao, "…"
What was wrong with this guy?
Why was he bowing more and more?
Could it be that his valiant aura had infected him, causing him to unconsciously treat him as a guest of honor and treat him with respect?
However, no matter what, Lin Xiao had officially become the Prefectural Governor of Guang 'an County.
During this period, Lin Xiao's energy value was constantly increasing, from 7700 points all the way to 15,600 points!
He could summon the next subordinate.
However, this time, Lin Xiao did not choose to summon. Instead, he chose to increase Yang Jian's strength.
Firstly, Yang Jian had been loyal and devoted to his subordinates and had performed countless meritorious deeds. Everyone else had used Heaven and Earth's Fortune, but only Yang Jian had not used it. It was somewhat unreasonable.
Secondly, increasing Yang Jian's strength by one level would bring about a qualitative leap. He might even surpass Juling Shen. Even if he summoned another subordinate, he might not be able to defeat Yang Jian.
Thinking of this, Lin Xiao reluctantly used 10000 energy value to increase Yang Jian's cultivation from the sixth level of the Body Integration Stage to the seventh level of the Body Integration Stage.
With 5,600 points left, Lin Xiao increased the Barbarian King and the Sword Sage to the fourth level of the Body Integration Stage.
At this point, among Lin Xiao's subordinates, Juling Shen's cultivation was the highest, reaching the sixth level of the Tribulation Stage. Next was the Donghai Dragon King, who was at the eighth level of the Body Integration Stage. Next was Yang Jian, who was at the seventh level of the Body Integration Stage. Next were the Barbarian King and the Sword Sage, who were at the fourth level of the Body Integration Stage.
As for Daji, her strength at the first level of the Spirit Severing Stage was enough to protect herself. Lin Xiao did not intend to let his future woman lead the charge.
In the following genius ranking battle, the Third Marquis would definitely try his best to deal with him, a thorn in his side. He had to rely on his subordinates to protect himself.
The most important thing was Yang Jian.
Although Yang Jian's strength was only at the seventh level of the Body Integration Stage, his strength had probably surpassed Juling Shen's. The divine aura exuding from his body could not be compared to Juling Shen's aura.
This made Lin Xiao feel very helpless.
Who was the Body Integration Stage and who was the Tribulation Stage?
