Douluo: Emperor of Light
Chapter 56 Influence
A few days later, outside the city of Koinol.
The Campbell family temporarily escaped disaster because their territory was not within the city.
In the past, this represented a situation of being excluded and not integrating into the circle, but now it actually benefits from it.
In the study room, the old patriarch looked at the information in his hand, his face was heavy, and he was no longer as calm as before.
In front of him, Liang Li slowly described the current situation.
"All the nobles in the city, led by the city lord, have been wiped out in one fell swoop. The chief judge of Wuhun Palace is leading the inspection team to search for those who are implicated."
"The spies outside the city also received information that the Lion Legion has given up its advance after a personal visit from a strong man from the Spirit Palace and is retreating back to the Star Luo Empire."
Having said this, Liang Li's words still inevitably took on an incredible tone.
Not long ago, this city, and even several surrounding cities, were all in a situation where the overall situation was under control. But now, in just a short period of time, the situation has suddenly changed.
Now, let alone making contributions to the Star Luo Empire, even whether he can save his wealth and life without involving his family is still a problem.
Wuhundian is not so easy to talk to traitors.
"Grandson, you made the right decision. You were not in a hurry to take sides before. The elders originally criticized you, but now they have all shut up."
"Therefore, we were not among the first targets of the Wuhun Palace, and we were still able to survive, but..."
The old patriarch put the information in his hand on the tea cup beside him.
I closed my eyes, and all the things that had happened recently flashed through my mind, making quick judgments and thinking, trying to find a favorable situation.
After a long time, he finally spoke and said helplessly: "It's just, this is not enough."
Liang Li nodded silently, he thought so too.
Although Wuhun Palace has not taken action against them for the time being, it does not mean that the matter is over. It is simply unimaginable to not take the opportunity to clean up such a good situation.
After thinking about it, he talked about another thing: "What should we do with those young and imposing Wuhundian geniuses?"
As soon as this was mentioned, the clan leader hit his head with a headache, and the wrinkles on his face deepened.
Not long ago, those little kids, relying on their status as Wuhundian, actually came to the door in person and forcefully demanded that they hand over a person. They did not take the Campbell family seriously at all.
With such an extremely arrogant look, if the other party was not from Wuhun Palace, he would ensure that those brats would never see the sun in their lives.
"Those annoying brats..." He sighed and said, "Now, the only thing we can do is satisfy their unreasonable demands. The Spirit Hall is not something we can fight against."
Liang Li noticed that his grandfather was in a bad mood and comforted him by saying:
"Grandpa, this matter is not difficult to handle. Shi Wu is of no use now. Instead of letting him waste resources, it is better to be a favor and hand it over to Wuhun Palace."
"Shi Wu, who has lost his value, is not worthy of abandoning our family to protect him. Faced with the persecution of these children, we can completely shirk it to the Wuhun Palace. This will not cause too much loss of face."
The patriarch held the chair and rubbed the armrests, and finally had to admit that this was indeed a method.
With a decision in his mind, he gritted his teeth and said:
"This is not enough, grandson, later you personally take Shi Wu with you and go to the Wuhun branch hall with those children to apologize."
"Only by letting them see our sincerity can the family be safe from this disaster."
Liang Li raised his head in surprise, saw the clan leader's determined look, closed his mouth, and nodded slowly and slightly heavily.
Although the facts are cruel, he also understands that compared with the decline of the family, this may be the best solution.
-
Annie was in the room belonging to the bishop, holding a document and reading it in detail.
Because during the previous turmoil, he had won the position of acting bishop from the master of the Douluo Palace by virtue of his contribution to pacifying the people, so he had the right to enter here.
He was suddenly promoted two levels in a row, which did not make him feel too happy. Instead, he worked more seriously and carefully, fearing that he would make some mistakes in his work and live up to the expectations of the palace master.
"Vice-Bishop Anni, this is the list of supplies for the Wuhun Branch Hall. Because of the supplies brought back by the Master of Qingyang Hall, the situation in the city has greatly improved."
An old priest, with a fawning smile on his old face, stood obediently in front of Annie and reported on his work.
After Anni confirmed that it was correct, he nodded and looked at the old priest who was still above him and did nothing.
"The initial relief materials have been prepared. During the subsequent distribution, we must watch carefully and not let others take advantage of them for corruption."
"Remember, this is particularly important. The master of Qingyang Palace is still in the city, watching us."
Anni warned repeatedly, even worried that his prestige was insufficient, so he carried Qingyang out.
The old priest quickly responded and claimed that the reputation of the master of the Douluo Hall had spread throughout the city in the past few days. People with a little status knew what big things the other party had done.
Suppressing the Wuhun Branch Hall, purging the nobles in the city, and forcing the Lion Legion back by one person, none of these things can be underestimated in isolation, let alone the master of Qingyang Hall who accomplished everything.
The deputy bishop in front of me was able to successfully serve only because of the strong support of the other party.
I'm afraid it won't be long before the appointment of the Pope of Wuhun City is formalized, and then Ani, a lucky guy, will be able to become a real bishop.
That is the dream of countless people, the top dignitary in a city!
"Also, the Lord of the Palace has reorganized and invested in various important industries these days, including various factories and colleges in the city. I believe that they will be able to resume their functions soon."
"You will make arrangements later. The unsupported children will be sent to orphanages, and those who are capable of working will be arranged to work accordingly. We need to restore this city as soon as possible."
The old priest immediately took out the pen and paper he had been carrying recently and started recording.
At the same time secretly startled.
The energy of this palace master was much more powerful than he imagined. He didn't know his strength, but even his financial resources were terrifying.
Being responsible for the economic recovery of a city alone is not something that ordinary people can do. Without enough money and support, it is impossible even for a titled Douluo.
After finishing recording, the old priest closed the notebook and said with approval:
"It seems that the Vice-Bishop is indeed deeply concerned by the Lord. With such strong support, we will definitely be able to restore this city as soon as possible!"
This sentence made Anni frown, but he didn't say anything. Even he thought that he and this city were already considered a powerful faction in Qingyang.
