Chapter 591 - 591: Got A New Job!
The next moment, another examiner also smiled and said, “Fellow Daoist, I can also recommend you to go to the West City Lord’s Mansion to be the city guard general.”
Wang Mang was surprised to receive an invitation from all three of them. Also, it appeared that there were four city lord mansions in this city, who had divided their power.
In that case, it was likely that the relationship between these city lords’ mansions were complicated.
After pondering for a while, Wang Mang smiled and cupped his hands.
“As the saying goes, first come, first served.”
‘Til go to the East City Lord’s Mansion with this fellow Daoist!”
Hearing this, the other two examiners nodded regretfully. They were not too bothered about it though. Wang Mang would not be worth their attention unless he managed to become a vice-city lord.
After all, if he became a vice city lord, he would wield a considerable amount of power in Qingmu City.
At this moment, the examiner from the East City Lord’s Mansion was very happy that Wang Mang had chosen him.
He stepped forward and patted Wang Mang’s shoulder. Smiling, he said, “Let’s go. I’ll take you there and brief you about the city lord’s mansion along the way.”
“Fellow Daoist, I believe you can tell that I’ve just arrived in Qingmu City, right? I am Wutian. How should I address you?” Wang Mang smiled and said.
“So it’s Fellow Daoist Wutian! Fellow Daoist, you can just call me Guang Liang,” The examiner chuckled.
“Brother Guang Liang, what’s going on with Qingmu City? Are there really four City Lords?”
Guang Liang smiled and nodded.
“Brother, you might not know this about Qingmu City, but it contains a lot of powerful forces despite its relatively small size.”
“There are several first-rate forces, and there are countless second-rate and third-rate forces!”
“The Qingmu City Lords’ Mansions are also one of the top forces, or rather, they just happen to be in the territory of a first-rate forces.”
“In any case, Qingmu City only has three City Lords.”
“After you join, you’ll naturally come to understand more about Qingmu City, and the forces within it.”
Upon hearing Guang Liang’s words, Wang Mang nodded in realization. He narrowed his eyes in confusion. It seemed that there was no North City Lord’s Mansion?
Wang Mang then asked, “Brother Guang Liang, where is the North City Lord’s Mansion?”
Hearing this, Guang Liang immediately shook his head and said with a smile, “There isn’t a North City Lord.”
“However, this position has already been targeted by others. Now, the vice-city lords of the three major City Lord Mansions are all eyeing the position of the North City Lord.”
“However, if they want to become the North City Lord, they first have to reach the Zenith Heaven Golden Immortal Realm. Otherwise, the other three City Lords will definitely not approve of them.”
Wang Mang nodded to himself. Since there was time, he decided to find out more about Qingmu City.
“Brother Guangliang, how many first-rate factions are there in Qingmu City?”
“There are five first-rate forces in Qingmu City,” Guang Liang said with a chuckle.
“Well, if you include the City Lords’ Mansions, there are six.”
“They are the four great clans, Chen, Li, Qian, and Sun, and also the Mercenary Alliance.”
“As for second-rate forces, there are too many to name.”
Unknowingly, Wang Mang had already arrived at the East City Lord’s Mansion with Guang Liang. Upon entering, Guang Liang smiled at Wang Mang and said, “Fellow Daoist, follow me to see the city lord. We’ll see how he’ll arrange things for you.”
Wang Mang nodded and followed Guang Liang into a hall, where he waited quietly. Some time later, Wang Mang saw a white-haired old man walking into the hall.
At the same time, Wang Mang could also sense that this person’s aura was extremely terrifying. This white-haired old man was no weaker than the dragon clan’s Fifth Elder who had attacked him back then.
Wang Mang was secretly shocked. It seemed that the City Lord was more powerful than he had imagined.
At this moment, the white-haired old man smiled at Wang Mang and said, “Guang Liang said that you wanted to join the East City Lord’s Mansion, am I correct?”
Hearing this, Wang Mang hurriedly nodded respectfully. “Greetings, East City Lord!”
The old man smiled and waved his hand.
“From now on, you will be the person in charge of our East Gate!”
After saying that, the white-haired old man looked at Wang Mang kindly.
He patted Wang Mang’s shoulder and gave him a green token. It was only then that he turned to leave.
The City Lord was a Tier 5 expert, yet he had come to see Wang Mang personally. This was already a sign of great importance.
However, he was a little confused about his new role. He was supposed to be in charge of the East Gate? What did that entail?
After the old man left, Guang Liang looked at Wang Mang with envy and said, “Fellow Daoist, when you become successful in the future, don’t forget me!”
Wang Mang’s heart skipped a beat, and he asked in confusion, “Brother Guang Liang, What kind of position was I assigned to? What is the East Gate?”
Guang Liang explained enviously, “Qingmu City has four main gates. There is one gate in each cardinal direction, with each City Lord Mansion taking charge of one gate.”
“Now, the East City Lord has handed you authority over the East Gate, which carries significant military power. There are also many benefits.”
“Brother, it can be said that within the East City Lord’s Mansion, your status ranks within the top six, even higher than mine!”
Upon hearing this, Wang Mang felt secretly delighted. Military power was good and all, but the thing that excited him the most was the fact that benefits were mentioned!
This was his favorite word!
He naturally knew that Guang Liang would not have said this unless there were benefits to be gained.
Thinking this, Wang Mang became even more excited.
He had never thought that he would be able to settle this matter so easily. He had joined a first-rate force, and even snagged himself a good position!
Not bad, not bad at all!
At this moment, the system’s voice rang out.
