Chapter 2988: Santo’s arrangement

The black-robed old man answered truthfully. After hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with surprise, which made him more and more interested in that boy Li Tian.
Originally, in the eyes of the middle-aged man, Li Tian was just a small person, and his strength and realm were irrelevant. The reason for helping Li Tian was to use him to deal with the Zhuo family.
In recent decades, the Zhuo Family has faintly lost control. According to the investigation, the Zhuo Family seems to have a relationship with the Blood Underworld Sect, which makes people have to guard against it.
You know, in the entire Yunzhou territory, the Blood Underworld Sect is definitely a huge monster, and compared with the Blood Underworld Sect, Man Dou City is nothing at all.
If you want to attack Brutal Dou City, the Blood Underworld Sect only needs to send a Tiangong to easily occupy this place, without expending much effort.
Of course, the Blood Underworld Sect did not dare to attack blatantly, unless it wanted to become a mouse crossing the street, which Yunzhou would not tolerate, because the Yunzhou Mansion stood behind Man Dou City!
In fact, nominally speaking, any city within the scope of Yunzhou is under the management of Yunzhou Prefecture, and every city lord is also appointed by Yunzhou Prefecture.
This is different from the situation in Qingzhou. In Qingzhou, most of the cities are controlled by local sects, tribes, or some powerful person.
Even Qingzhou Yangcheng is ruled by all major forces, and Qingzhou Mansion can only occupy a small part of it.
The reason is that Qingzhou Mansion is weak and unable to suppress other forces.
On the contrary, Yunzhou Mansion is strong enough to crush any forces, so it can control the land of a state, and no one dares to easily get involved.
The middle-aged man didn't worry about being seized of power, but now that it involves the Blood Dark Sect, he no longer dares to be careless.
If the Blood Underworld Sect secretly took him to the sky, or put him under house arrest, and then let the Zhuo family act as a puppet to manage Man Dou City, the consequences would be unimaginable, and Man Dou City is very likely to change ownership.
Yunzhou Mansion is busy with business and seldom pays attention to such small places as Man Dou City. As long as he is the nominal city lord, he will not cause a sensation, and Yunzhou Mansion will not bother.
He could contact Yunzhou Mansion, but this would make Yunzhou Mansion dissatisfied. He felt that he was not able to manage a city. The consequence of this was that Yunzhou Mansion would remove the position of City Lord.
It was for these reasons that the middle-aged man began to attach importance to the Zhuo family and sent someone to secretly investigate the Zhuo family's Lao Di. This investigation, he really found various problems.
When Li Tian made trouble in the Zhuo family, he immediately saw an opportunity, a chance to test the Zhuo family and lead the power of the Mingzong. If handled properly, he might not be able to cut off the Zhuo family and solve the crisis of being seized of power.
"Well, since Li Tian's injury is healed, then call him in immediately." Not long after, the middle-aged man said lightly.
The black-robed old man nodded, then exited the palace, and stood at the door shouting: "My Lord has an order, Li Tian has come to see you!"
On the other side, Li Tian didn't hesitate, and walked quickly towards the palace gate, still holding the unconscious Zhuo Ningshan in his arms.
"This girl can't go in, I'll ask the maid to take care of you, the lord of the city only said to see you." The old man in black robe reminded.
Li Tian nodded, and handed Zhuo Ningshan to a maid at the door before striding into the palace.
At this time, another maid came and led Li Tian through several corridors to a loft in the depths of the palace. The middle-aged man was standing with his hands in the loft.
Before he saw the middle-aged man, Li Tian felt an unspeakable domineering and powerful pressure. When he came to the attic, he almost couldn't breathe.
"Are you Li Tian?" The middle-aged man took a look at Li Tian, ​​then reduced his momentum and asked casually.
"I have seen the Lord of the City, the kid is Li Tian." Li Tian immediately bowed his hands to salute, with an extremely respectful attitude.
"You don't need to be polite." The middle-aged man waved his hand. "Li Xiaozi, do you know, why should I send someone to rescue you?"
"The kid is puzzled, please let the lord of the city tell me." Li Tian was taken aback for a moment, then said respectfully.
"Because the Zhuo family has a heart of disobedience, trying to make troubles, and you made trouble in the Zhuo family, making the Zhuo family embarrassed, this is exactly what the king wants!" said the middle-aged man.
"The Zhuo Family wants to rebel?" Li Tian was shocked. He didn't expect the Zhuo Family to be so courageous. You know, the strength of the City Lord's Mansion is not weak at all.
Just this city lord can suppress the entire Zhuo family, after all, the cultivation of the ancestors of the Zhuo family is just a half-step Dongxuan.
"Yes, they just want to rebel and subvert this king's rule!" The middle-aged man sneered. "But they are too naive. This king has been in charge of Ruo Dou City for thousands of years and has won the hearts of the people. How can it be a second-rate family? Can it be challenged?"
"In the eyes of this king, anyone who does not have the power of the profound Dong Xuan power is second-rate and cannot pose a threat to me. The reason why the Zhuo family is valued is only because it hooks up with the Blood Nether Sect!"
Hearing the last words, Li Tian was not surprised. Zhuo Family was able to take out the Great Yin-Yang Jue, most of which was embracing the thigh of the Blood Nether Sect.
I think that too, if there is no backing, how dare the Zhuo family rebel, how dare to risk being annihilated, and game with the city lord's mansion?
"Okay, you can go down. I call you over this time, just to make you rest assured that no matter how much trouble you make in Zhuo's house, this king can keep you!" The middle-aged man said no more.
Li Tian didn't stay too much, and immediately retreated, but in his heart he was thinking whether he would be a fuse to make Zhuo Family and City Lord's Mansion tear their skin.
"Master City Lord, that kid has a good talent, why not let him join our City Lord Mansion?" As soon as Li Tian walked away, the old man in black robe appeared in the attic.
"It's not the time yet. When the news from the Zhuo family leaks out, it will not be too late to accept Li Tian." The middle-aged man said, "By the way, you said that Li Tian should be the commander of the guard and be responsible for managing the eastern part of the city. How is the order?"
"My lord is ready to take action on the Zhuo family?" The old man in black robe was surprised. Zhuo Jiacheng was in the east of the city. Let Li Tian go to the east of the city to take a post. Isn't that stimulating the Zhuo family?
"I've checked the details of the Zhuo family, and it doesn't make much sense to drag it on," the middle-aged man said.
"If this is the case, why not let Li Tian be the commander, hand all guards over to him, and let him take revenge on the Zhuo family as much as possible," said the black robe old man.
"Okay, that's it." The middle-aged man nodded, with a smile on his face. In fact, he was also looking forward to whether Li Tian could upset the Zhuo family.
And when Li Tian entered the city lord's mansion, the news that he was making trouble in Zhuo Family City suddenly came out, and for a while, the whole Brutal Dou City was boiling.
