Everyone held their wine glasses with their mouths agape and eyes wide open as they stared at Zhang Xing in shock.
Zhang Xing was the youngest among them. He sat on the large high chair like a little emperor.
His eyes swept across everyone's faces with a hint of a smile.
Clang!
Clang!
A few people who were mentally unstable and timid couldn't withstand this aura. Their wine glasses fell from their hands onto the table without even realizing it.
They were indeed shocked. They had never heard such heartwarming words.
Which noble city lord didn't care about their subordinates' hunger? They didn't even treat them as humans. If they were unhappy, they would beat them up. If they made a small mistake, they would be beheaded.
Not to mention standing up for them. The first half of the sentence was very touching.
However, the second half made their hair stand on end. They were filled with murderous intent.
It was possible to wipe out a clan, but wiping out a kingdom was too scary. Wiping out a kingdom just because they were bullied?
Brother, are you joking?
Cough, cough!
Feeling that he had gone overboard with his words, Zhang Xing coughed awkwardly before rolling his eyes.
"Do you think I'm exaggerating?
"If not for the Light Saint Hall's elder, do you think I would be able to wipe out the Golden Fragrant Flower Empire?"
There was no need to explain. Facts spoke for themselves. Was it difficult to wipe out the Golden Fragrant Flower Empire with one man and eight dragons?
Everyone else also thought of the key point, and a look of understanding appeared on their faces.
That's right. Lord Zhang wasn't joking with them. He had the strength.
First, he barged into the Thunder Martial Empire alone and fought many heroes. He subdued the pterosaur and forced Lei Dongtian away.
Then, he swept through the Golden Fragrant Flower Empire and defeated the emperor in one move. No one dared to act rashly. In the end, they could only sacrifice Salen and his son for safety.
All of this was a fact that had just occurred. So long as someone mentioned Lord Zhang Xing, all of them would reveal fervent expressions of adoration, and Violet Thistle City was even filled with people. All sorts of heroes had come to seek shelter from Violet Thistle City out of admiration.
The hottest topic on the streets and alleys was the various versions of the legend of Zhang Xing of One Man Eight Dragons.
"With Lord Zhang as the center, we will unite and develop together!"
Meng Xi, Andro, Solina, and the others spoke at the same time, giving Zhang Xing their greatest support.
Then, the others followed suit and expressed their sincerity.
Of course, only they knew how many were sincere and how many just wanted to make a living. Zhang Xing didn't care about this.
He also knew that it was useless to just say a few words. There weren't many people who were sincere enough to support him.
After a few cups of wine, Zhang Xing put down his knife and fork. Everyone stopped eating, knowing that Lord Zhang was going to speak again.
"Everyone, the legion has just been established, and there are many members. I have a few requests for everyone here."
"The first is absolute obedience, the second is obedience, and the third is still obedience!"
"Meng Xi has a wealth of experience. I believe he can manage this legion well. In terms of military affairs, obeying his orders is the same as obeying mine."
"Your Excellency Andro, please take care of the internal affairs of the legion."
Meng Xi and Andro stood up at the same time.
"Don't worry, Captain. I won't let you down!"
Everyone thought that they were going to be promoted and became nervous, guessing what kind of position they would get.
But Zhang Xing changed the topic. "I won't interfere with the legion's affairs. I'll leave everything to Meng Xi.
"Andro will be in charge of all the positions in the City Lord's Mansion."
Meng Xi and Andro were stunned. Then, their mouths twitched and tears welled up in their eyes.
Big Brother, you're so relaxed. Are you trying to tire us to death?
