Chapter 942 - What Hides Behind Power?
Honestly?
The two guards were also stunned.
When they came back to their senses, they could not help but fly into a rage. However, when he saw the two of them, there was a standard village logo on their chests.
Although they were extremely angry, they did not dare to act rashly.
Because what Pan Zigazi said was the truth!
They were indeed not officially organized!
However, Pan Zigazi was an official member of the Heavenly Desolation Palace.
This point far exceeded theirs.
Although they usually flaunted their might in the City Lord Manor, they did not dare to offend the official organization at all.
The reason for that was because the symbol of the Heavenly Desolation Palace was also a symbol.
It was normal for higher-ups to lower their subordinates.
However, they could not beat up their superiors. Otherwise, their outcome would not be good.
If the higher-ups had the strength, they could even kill unorganized temporary workers like them!
However, they, the temporary workers, could not kill the regular members of the Heavenly Desolation Palace!
Otherwise, the Heavenly Desolation Palace would investigate.
They were either captured and imprisoned or directly killed.
Similarly, even the top Tier 5 members in the outside world were the same.
This was because having the village standard represented the Heavenly Desolation Palace. Not to mention that they could not provoke it casually.
Even those who were stronger than Pan Ziga Zi did not dare to kill anyone from the Heaven Desolation Palace.
The next moment, the two of them hesitated for a moment before lowering their heads and cupping their hands.
“Milords, this subordinate was blind and did not see the two of you clearly.” Hearing this, Pan Zigazi nodded in satisfaction. Then, he walked towards Wang Mang with a fawning expression.
“Sir, you can go in now.”
Hearing this, Wang Mang nodded and walked into the city with his hands behind his back.
Originally, the two guards at the door wanted to brace themselves and stop him.
After all, not everyone could enter the City Lord Residence.
However, seeing how Pan Zigazi and Wang Mang were fawning over Wang
Mang and even addressing him as ‘Lord’…
Therefore, they did not come forward to stop him.
This was the general name of the Heavenly Desolation Palace.
It meant that it was what his boss meant!
This meant that this young man with a terrifying aura was very likely a member of the Heaven Desolation Palace, and his position was not small.
Therefore, they naturally did not dare to go forward and stop him, afraid that they would be slapped for no reason!
After entering the City Lord Residence, there were actually three buildings. The middle building was the tallest, and the two buildings beside it were relatively shorter.
There were also plaques written on the three buildings. The mansion in the middle was written with the City Lord Manor, and the Vice City Lord Manor was on the left and right.
In addition, there were three small attics that read:
Black Domain Public Security Hall, Black Domain Detention Hall, Black Domain Enforcement Hall.
Perhaps he had sensed the arrival of Wang Mang and the others.
Two middle-aged men walked out of the City Lord Residence’s building.
Moreover, he seemed to be very authoritative. There were a few people from the Heavenly Desolation Palace following behind him, and they were all people with village standards.
At this moment, the two middle-aged men looked at Pan Zi and Ga Zi behind Wang Mang and asked,
“Who is this fellow Daoist?”
Hearing this, Wang Mang’s expression was indifferent. He immediately took out the appointment letter arranged by Qu Long and handed it to the middle-aged man.
Although these two people were of the same level as him, they were both from small cities.
However, his position was not as high as his, so he naturally did not need to show any flattery to the two of them.
Similarly, after reading the letter of appointment and Qu Long’s letter of appointment, their expressions changed.
Originally, they thought that the position of the Lord of the Black Domain should have been born between the two of them.
However, in the end, the higher-ups directly arranged for a new lord of the Black Domain, Wang Mang, to come here from nowhere.
This simply infuriated them quite a bit. For the sake of the position of City Lord.
There was no need to mention how ruthless the two of them were. They were just short of fighting to the death.
Therefore, it would be strange if the two of them looked good.
However, despite the anger in their hearts, their expressions still stiffened.
“So it’s the City Lord Fellow Daoist. I’m Yuan Ge, the Vice City Lord.”
“I’m Yang Wei, Deputy City Lord.”
Hearing this, Wang Mang nodded indifferently.
“Why was I intercepted and charged when I entered the city?”
Upon hearing Wang Mang’s words, both of their expressions changed slightly.
Among them, the City Lord of Yuan Ge said softly,
“Fellow Daoist, it’s best if you don’t interfere too much. Too many people’s interests are involved.”
The other Vice City Lord, Yang Wei, also nodded slowly and echoed, “Fellow Daoist, it’s better not to interfere easily.”
Wang Mang instantly narrowed his eyes when he heard this, and then he chuckled. “Then what should I do?”
Yuan Ge and Yang Wei looked at each other and smiled.
“If you want to relax, you can choose not to do anything.”
“At that time, it’s not a bad choice for Fellow Daoist to be a local emperor in the Black Domain.”
Hearing this, Wang Mang immediately sneered and said, “Why don’t you just let me be invisible?”
“At that time, the Black Domain will still be under your control, right?”
Upon hearing Wang Mang’s words, Yuan Ge and Yang Wei felt a little awkward. However, they had to admit that that was indeed what they were thinking.
They were naturally unwilling to let go of the power to continue controlling the Dark Zone.
What did it mean to continue to control the power of the Dark Zone?
This meant that he had an endless supply of resources!
It meant that they had the chance to break through to Class 6!
Therefore, who wouldn’t want to be in power?
After all, the Heavenly Desolation Palace did not forbid the use of power for personal gain!
It was too common for the Hall of Heavenly Desolation to abuse their power for personal gain.
Therefore, this was also the reason why these people were obsessed with power.
At this moment, Yuan Ge, who had been silent for a while, spoke.
“Fellow Daoist, you can do this too. Let me and Yang Wei continue to be in charge.”
“Yang Wei and I will take half of any source of income. Fellow Daoist, you can take half!”
Hearing this, Wang Mang’s heart skipped a beat, but he did not agree easily. Instead, he asked indifferently,
“How much can you earn in a year?”
Hearing this, Yang Wei and Yuan Ge’s eyes immediately lit up.
Even though they were distributing half of the profits to Wang Mang, their hearts still ached.
However, there was nothing he could do. Once Wang Mang stabilized his position as the City Lord,
There was basically nothing left for them to do!
As he thought of this, Vice City Master Yuan Ge slowly said, “Last year alone,
Vice City Master Yang Wei and I…”
“Each person gets 20,000 Law Crystals. Including the rest of the income, each person gets 50,000 Law Crystals.”
Upon hearing this, Pan Zigazi gasped.
One had to know that they had not expected this either.
This was only the leader of a small city.
In the end, he could actually accumulate so much wealth!
After all, how much was their annual salary?
It was only a few hundred Law Crystals!
Compared to the two guys in front of him, *
It was simply a drop in the ocean!
Thinking that everyone was at the peak of Class 5,
Pan Zigazi was very upset.
At this moment, the two of them swore in their hearts.
One day, they would also climb to the peak of power!
At the same time, Wang Mang slowly shook his head and demanded an exorbitant price.
“Half is too little.. It’s fine if you want me to give up my power completely, but I want 70% of the profits!”
