The Holy Maiden Uncovers My Coffin When I Just Become An Emperor's Corpse-Chapter 58 - City Lord’s Banquet!

He extended his hand and led the way.

Li Wan Hua raised an eyebrow, noticing that the City Lord seemed overly enthusiastic.

Before he could ask, Wang Chenghe spoke first.

“Honored geniuses, tonight I am hosting a banquet at the City Lord’s Mansion.

Welcoming many geniuses who have come to our Tianyun City despite the arduous journey.

I wonder if you could do us the honor of attending.”

Li Wan Hua did not answer immediately but turned to look at the sedan chair.

“Master, what do you say?”

“The master said it’s okay.”

It was a woman’s voice!

“Is there another genius inside?” Wang Chenghe thought to himself.

He peeked out of the corner of his eye,

and from the bottom level, he could only see several figures seated inside the first layer of the sedan chair.

“There are even more geniuses on the first level, sigh!

What kind of individual could make so many geniuses bow to them!” he thought to himself.

At that moment, he suddenly understood why Zhang Shengyuan had left.

Not only was it because the genius inside the sedan chair was formidable, but also because the other’s capabilities seemed to surpass ordinary geniuses.

Zhang Shengyuan not only had no confidence in defeating the other, but he might also find himself ensnared after dueling with them.

To become a subordinate of another, to bow before them.

“Zhang Shengyuan’s departure was the right choice!”

With a genius like this, naturally Zhang Shengyuan would pale in comparison.

“City Lord, my master agrees to your invitation, when the banquet starts in the evening,

just send someone to notify us,” Li Wan Hua said.

Wang Chenghe smiled.

“Great, I’ll personally come to invite you at that time!”

Personally again?

*”So courteous?”* Li Wan Hua thought to himself.

He didn’t ask further and followed Wang Chenghe to the guest room at the back of the manor.

“Geniuses, you’ve come a long way, and you must be very tired.

I won’t disturb you any longer,

please rest well.” Wang Chenghe said as he led Li Wan Hua and the others to the courtyard, then took his leave.

Li Wan Hua and the others entered the courtyard, and the sedan chair was gently set down by Chen Yuan and another genius.

“Master, we have arrived,” Li Wan Hua respectfully called out.

The curtain of the sedan opened, and Yang Yan descended gently.

“Master, seeing the City Lord’s enthusiasm, there might be something amiss,

I’ll go inquire around,” Li Wan Hua immediately volunteered.

“Alright, everyone else feel free to do as you please, no need to follow me.”

“Thank you, Master.”

Yang Yan entered the room and took out a Divine Origin as tall as a person.

This was the Bing Sword Body, lost to him by Xu Xiangdong.

“The power inside is very abundant!”

In his hand, a thread of Profound Qi appeared, and he flicked his finger.

The Profound Qi transformed into the Kun Form in mid-air, opening its mouth wide to swallow the Divine Origin.

Suspended in the air, it devoured the power inside with full force.

The Divine Origin wrapped within did not leak even a drop of its power, all of the energy would be devoured by his Kun Form’s Profound Qi.

Thump thump thump, the sound of knocking on the door echoed.

“Come in.”

Creek, the door opened.

Chu Mei’er entered the room and closed the door behind her.

“Master.” She knelt on one knee and called out.

Yang Yan sat in a chair, looking down at her.

“What is the reason for your visit?”

Chu Mei’er presented a cyan longsword.

“Master, this is the reward I received after emerging from the Human List,

I’m specifically presenting it to you, please accept it with a smile,” she said respectfully.

She held the cyan longsword with both hands, raising it above her head.

A resounding clang was heard as the cyan longsword was unsheathed.

A cyan aura radiated from it, and a faint Saint Intent flowed along as well.

It proved that this sword was forged by a Saint.

If it contained Saint Dao Intent, perhaps it would have been a Holy Artifact.

Only without it could it be considered a Half-King Artifact!

Chu Mei’er was shocked, and her expression immediately changed.

Because after the cyan longsword flew out, it bared its edge, pointing directly at her.

The aura flickered, pausing right at her throat!

“Master, you…”

She felt an extreme sense of killing intent, and her heart was filled with fear!

“Don’t test me with your petty thoughts,” Yang Yan said coldly.

He saw through Chu Mei’er’s thoughts at a glance.

If she had intended to offer the longsword early on, she should have handed it over after leaving the Human List.

The reason she hadn’t was because she was reluctant to part with the sword.

Another reason was she knew she couldn’t keep the sword.

So even if she was forced to hand over the sword, she wanted some benefits in return!

Which was why she sought time alone to offer the treasure sword to him now.

“Master, please forgive me!” Chu Mei’er had not expected Yang Yan to see through her thoughts, and she hastily pleaded for mercy.

“What crime have you committed?” Yang Yan asked indifferently.

“I, I shouldn’t have harbored such petty thoughts,

I shouldn’t have tried to use this longsword to barter with the master,

to ask the master to forgive me and place me in the highest position.”

Chu Mei’er was fully aware that the geniuses carrying the sedan at the lowest level,

did not hold a high position in Yang Yan’s eyes, although they received some rewards,

those rewards weren’t outstanding.

However, if she entered the uppermost position, the rewards there would be much greater.

Even Jing Yin and Jingxin were able to obtain the fourth and fifth tokens of the Human List and were rewarded.

If she moved up, could she regain what she once lost?

She!

Wanted to climb higher!

“If you truly submit to me with sincerity, I will let you ascend to the highest level,

if you cannot, no matter what you offer me, I will not let you remain by my side,” Yang Yan said calmly.

“Master, I understand, I will henceforth be completely loyal to the master,” Chu Mei’er immediately replied.

“Let’s see your performance!”

The cyan longsword returned to its scabbard, and Chu Mei’er breathed a sigh of relief.

“The sword is yours!” Yang Yan said casually.

Chu Mei’er was stunned.

“Master, may I ask why you are gifting me this sword?”

Yang Yan closed his eyes.

“You are third on the Human List, this reward was earned by your own strength,

this sword should belong to you!”

He had no need for a Half-King Artifact either!

Chu Mei’er lowered her head in shame.

“Master, I acted with the mind of a petty person, misunderstanding the heart of a gentleman,” she said.

In her heart, she thought: “Master is magnanimous!”

“Hmm, go ahead, cultivate well, work for me, and your position will rise with the tide,” Yang Yan said.

“Yes, Master.”

Chu Mei’er put away the cyan treasure sword and exited the room.

Time passed, and the sky gradually darkened.

Inside the main hall of the City Lord’s Mansion, the atmosphere was bustling.

Figures stood around, their bodies shining with brilliance, eyes captivated.

“Honored geniuses, please take your seats,” Wang Chenghe said from the topmost position.

Many geniuses sat in nearby positions, with several spots remaining vacant,

one of which was right next to Wang Chenghe.

That spot was the head seat!

“Hmm, there’s still one genius who hasn’t arrived,

I will go invite them right away, honored geniuses, please wait a moment,” he continued.

He moved and left the main hall.

After his departure, all the geniuses present frowned.

“The City Lord personally goes to invite a genius, leaving us waiting for them?

Who has such impressive influence?” a young man sitting in the position on the right grumbled.
