Chapter 109 Notting City Comes
Early the next morning, a group of strangers came to Saint Soul Village.

They are just ordinary people, and they haven't noticed any abnormalities in the increase in the soul power of Holy Soul Village.When Xiao Jian, Xiao Wu and Old Jack were drinking preserved egg porridge, they walked into Old Jack's yard.

"You are the village chief of Holy Soul Village, Jack?"

"Yes."

"We are from the tax department of Notting City. We found that there is a tax problem in your village."

"Tax problem? What problem? Our village pays taxes on time every year! My lord, did you make a mistake?"

"It's impossible to make a mistake. This is a problem discovered by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. According to the tax law, each of your households needs to pay ten gold soul coins."

"What? Ten?"

"Also, your future taxes need to be increased by [-]%."

"Increase by [-]%? Increase taxes?"

"Yes, that's what it means."

"My lord, this is not acceptable."

"Why can't it work? The surrounding villages are like this. Could it be that your holy soul village wants to rebel?"

"My lord, you are too serious. What I mean is that there is still a cost in selling vegetables in our village. Although [-]% of the tax may not seem like much to you, but to the name of our village, it is nothing. It is about our lives. If there is a slight drought, the villagers may not be able to make ends meet."

"That's your problem. If you have any objections, then you should find His Royal Highness Prince Xueqinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire. He is the one who increased the tribute of our Barak Kingdom. There is nothing we can do about it."

……

"Xueqinghe!"

Xiao Jian suddenly felt that the preserved egg porridge in the bowl was no longer fragrant.Put down the bowls and chopsticks in your hand.

Last night, Xiao Jian also met with Qian Renxue.When Qian Renxue left, he still wondered why Qian Renxue was so obedient.It turned out that Qian Renxue actually wanted to sing such a play.

Why did Qian Renxue do this?

The reason is simple.

Qian Renxue knew the Barak Kingdom's style of conduct.If he increases the tribute paid by the Barak Kingdom, the Barak Kingdom will definitely find a way to squeeze the relevant expenses from the hands of the people.It also includes the villagers of Holy Soul Village.Qian Renxue wants to rely on this method to make Xiao Jian hate Xue Qinghe, and then completely prevent Xiao Jian from helping the Tiandou Empire.It might even make Xiao Jian change his mind and go to the Spirit Hall instead.

If Xiao Jian guessed correctly, Wuhundian will make some moves next.

Sure enough, on the fourth day, Su Yuntao, the deacon of the Wuhun Temple in Notting City, came.

The purpose of Su Yuntao's visit is very simple. He was ordered by his superiors to review the soul master level of the relevant soul masters in Notting City.

"Soul Saint?"

Su Yuntao looked at the crystal ball in his hand, and looked at Old Jack in surprise.Exclaimed: "Old man, in just three years, your cultivation base has increased by more than 30 levels?"

"Yeah." Old Jack nodded.I know he can't hide it.

Old Jack lived his whole life.Know the truth that Muxiu will be destroyed by forest wind.So after becoming a soul sage, he never went to the Wuhun Hall for an advanced appraisal.

Now, Su Yuntao suddenly came here.Old Jack felt that his secret might be known.Hidden, he couldn't hide anymore.

Su Yuntao put away the crystal ball, bowed respectfully to Old Jack and saluted. "Mr., I hope you can join our Spirit Hall. You are a soul saint. After joining our Spirit Hall, you will definitely be treated like a bishop."

After a soul master joins the Hall of Spirits, if his soul power level reaches level ninety, he can become an elder of the Hall of Spirits.If the soul power level reaches level [-], you can become the platinum bishop of the Wuhun Temple.If the soul power level reaches seventy, then one can become the bishop of one party's Spirit Hall.

Old Jack's soul power level is more than 70. With his ability, he is qualified to be the Bishop of Notting City.

"Master!"

Before Old Jack finished speaking, he was immediately interrupted by Su Yuntao.

"No, old man. Don't call me Master anymore. If you don't mind, just call me Yuntao." Su Yuntao said respectfully.

"Uh...that, Yuntao. The Holy Soul Village is everything to me, I only care about the Holy Soul Village. I don't have the intention to become a bishop. Thank you for your kindness." Old Jack rejected Su Yuntao .

"Old gentleman, you can become the bishop and also the village head of Holy Soul Village. With your status as a soul saint, no one will stop you from being the village head of Holy Soul Village."

"However, a person's energy is limited."

"Old sir. After you become the bishop, you can take a position in the Wuhun Hall of Notting City. Continue to be the village head of the Holy Soul Village." Su Yuntao did not give up, and continued to invite Old Jack to join the Wuhun Hall.

"This……"

Old Jack was worried.For Su Yuntao's words, he didn't know how to deal with Su Yuntao for a while.

Old Jack is now a soul sage, and he has heard of the style of Wuhundian.Those who follow me in the Wuhun Palace prosper and those who oppose me perish.If you don't join Wuhundian, then the soul masters of Wuhundian will kill him.

"Su Yuntao."

When Old Jack was in trouble, Xiao Jian stood up and said: "Joining the Wuhun Temple is a very important matter. You go back first, and after Grandpa Jack makes a decision, you can come to him again."

"Then... how long will it take?" Su Yuntao didn't want to give up on Old Jack, and asked Xiao Jian and Old Jack.

If you want to be promoted and raise your salary in Wuhundian, one is to improve one's own soul master level, and the other is to talk about performance.

Inviting a soul sage into the Wuhun Hall is a feat that can lead to a promotion and salary increase in the Wuhun Hall.Therefore, Su Yuntao didn't want to give up on Old Jack.

"Three months." Xiao Jian replied.

"Three months? So long?" Su Yuntao frowned, looking at Xiao Jian anxiously.

"It's too short. Okay, then half a year."

"What, half a year?"

Su Yuntao was stunned, staring at Xiao Jian dully.He felt that three months was long enough, but Xiao Jian suddenly increased it to half a year.Not decrease but increase.

"One year." Xiao Jian said again.

"Okay, let's take one year as the deadline." Su Yuntao was really afraid of Xiao Jian, and immediately agreed to Xiao Jian's request.

"Okay, after two years, Grandpa Jack will give you a letter of approval." Xiao Jian said.

two years?

Su Yuntao was confused.In just one sentence, the time has changed from one year to two years.Regarding this, Su Yuntao dared not ask, nor did he dare to get angry.I'm afraid Xiao Jian will increase the number of years.

"Okay. Then it's settled. I'll go back first." Su Yuntao walked a few steps quickly, for fear that Xiao Jian would continue to increase the number of years.

After Su Yuntao left, Old Jack became worried.

"Do I have to join the Spirit Hall in two years? It seems that I can't escape." Old Jack sighed helplessly.

Xiao Jian looked at Old Jack.Feeling guilty.He understood.Qian Renxue is advancing by retreating.Qian Renxue couldn't recruit him, she didn't fight or make trouble.Gently attacking the people around him, forcing Xiao Jian to get involved with Wuhundian.

If Xiao Jian's guess is correct, Qian Renxue must have found out about Xiao Jian's childhood during those days she stayed in Holy Soul Village.I know that Xiao Jian cares about Old Jack very much.

Qian Renxue must have felt that if Old Jack joined the Wuhun Temple, then Xiao Jian would not stand by and watch Old Jack's life and death.This further brought Xiao Jian into relationship with Wuhundian.When the war breaks out later, it doesn't matter if Xiao Jian joins the Spirit Hall or not.
