Chapter 1193 - 1193 1153 Citywide Meeting

1193: Chapter 1153 Citywide Meeting 1193: Chapter 1153 Citywide Meeting The next morning, at daybreak, Lu Chuan and his group got up for breakfast.

In the dining room, Guan Tianjun and the others also took their seats one by one, enjoying breakfast together.

At the moment, they were all in the same boat, so Guan Tianjun kept Lu Chuan informed about the situation within the city.

“There’s not much happening in the city right now.

The Lu Manor has gathered quite a few people, but when they will make a move is still unknown.”

Lu Chuan nodded slightly, “Since they have made all the preparations, then we should also get ready.”

“Yes, during this period, I will ensure that everyone in the manor is fully armed.

Now that we are on the same front, we must unite,” said Guan Tianjun with utmost seriousness, his face solemn as he sighed heavily.

At that moment, the caretaker came over to Guan Tianjun’s side.

“Master, someone from the City Lord has come, saying they want you to attend a meeting.”

Guan Tianjun frowned and turned to look at him, “Attend a meeting?

Now?

What sort of meeting is it, and who will be there?”

“All the family heads from the major families in the city will be there.

Even those with important matters to attend to and unable to go in person will send core members of their families to attend the meeting.”

Guan Tianjun continued, “Did they mention what the meeting is about?”

The caretaker shook his head slightly, “No, but I think it must be something significant; otherwise, under normal circumstances, the City Lord would not do this.”

Guan Tianjun looked back at Lu Chuan, “It seems I won’t be able to finish this breakfast.

I’ll be going to attend the meeting, and I’ll relay the specifics when I return.”

“Dongfang Cheng, does this City Lord of Hei Jin City have ties with the Lu family?” Dongfang Cheng asked him.

“Of course, they’re related.

After all, they’re part of the entire ruling stratum of Hei Jin City.

But how deep their relationship goes is hard to say.

However, the Lu family definitely cannot control all the powers on the City Lord’s side, so the City Lord is still an independent force.”

Lu Chuan continued eating his breakfast, “Then go and see what they intend to discuss at the meeting.”

Guan Tianjun nodded slightly and then turned to leave.

He arrived at the entrance of the manor, boarded the carriage, and proceeded towards the City Lord’s Mansion.

Upon arriving at the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion, he saw many carriages lined up, none looking modest but rather luxuriously decorated, clearly belonging to wealthy families.

After dismounting from the carriage, Guan Tianjun stepped down.

Soon, someone came forward to greet him.

“Old Guan, long time no see, how’s business been lately?”

Guan Tianjun went up with a cheerful handshake, “Not bad, and you?”

“Pretty good too.

We’ve been relying on the Lu family and everything is going quite smoothly for us.”

“By the way, do you know what today’s meeting is mainly about?”

The person in front of him pondered for a moment and said, “Seems like it’s about some big shot threatening Hei Jin City, and they want us to combine forces to deal with that person.”

“Is that so?

If they need this many of us, that guy must be terrifyingly strong.”

“Of course, it’s strong.

If the Lu family is taking it this seriously, how can the strength not be strong?

Do I need to say more?”

“Alright, it’s time.

We should go inside and discuss matters.

Remember, don’t talk out of turn, this is Lu Qianyu’s home ground.”

Subsequently, a group of elite individuals entered the City Lord’s Mansion, they were all major businessmen of Hei Jin City, controlling the economic lifeline, and their wealth was astonishing.

After they entered, they arrived at the Council Hall inside the City Lord’s Mansion!

Inside the spacious Council Hall, a huge table was set, surrounded by seated individuals, distinguished officials and nobility gathered here, exchanging lively conversation.

Their every exchange carried abundant information, even casual business talks involved transactions worth tens of thousands of taels of gold.

After taking a seat, Guan Tianjun looked around nervously, seating himself according to his family’s power ranking, near the top.

This was a position very close to the main seat.

Then, a man in a black robe with golden edges, walked in slowly.

His steps were leisurely, yet each was filled with strength, his whole body relaxed, but his presence commanding.

He pulled out a chair and sat down, looking at everyone before him.

“Gentlemen, thank you all for honoring this occasion.”

“You are the City Lord, when we receive your command, how can we not show respect!”

“If we did not come, we would be sinners.

The City Lord is the mainstay of Hei Jin City, of course, we must show respect.”

“Whoever is not here today, might as well not come from now on.”

The surrounding people quickly chimed in with smiling faces.

“Very good, now, Lu Qianyu, come over here.”

Following that, Lu Qianyu, wearing a red dress, approached.

She was extremely enchanting, her sensuous red lips and delicate makeup adding to her demure and refined demeanor.

All around, people were dazzled by her beauty, but no one dared entertain any improper thoughts, fearing that she would notice and their lives would be at risk.

“Seeing that everyone is here, you all have given me a lot of face.

It seems my status in the city is still very stable.”

Lu Qianyu rested her cheek in her palm, smiling radiantly.

“Um…

How could we not give you face?

You are from the Lu family, and a leading young figure in our Hei Jin City, of course we must show you respect,” someone next to her said, trembling with fear.

“The reason I’m here is very clear, I hope you can unite.

We have a person to deal with.”

“Who can make you go to such lengths?

With just a flick of our fingers, we could deal with that guy.”

“That’s right, isn’t such a mobilization a bit too much?

The last time we all gathered to discuss matters was for the hunting of a rampaging giant bear outside the city.”

“Yes, who in Hei Jin City could make you go to such lengths?”

Lu Qianyu continued, “That person is already in the city, and he’s very strong.

I hope you all stop the idle chatter.

He didn’t come here for a tour, but has been killing his way here.

I want you all to wake up to reality, he’s not an easy opponent!”

“If you don’t get serious, you’ll suffer at his hands!”

Lu Qianyu spoke with a heavy tone, making everyone’s expressions tense.

Now that Lu Qianyu had personally described the opponent in such a way, they could roughly gauge the strength of the opponent.

To Lu Qianyu, her true trump cards were outside the city; she couldn’t possibly keep her tamed Demon Beasts inside the city – that would cause a huge panic and would be inconvenient.

So, if she wanted to dominate and have an advantage within the city, she had to unite all the city’s forces!

Only this way could she still hold an advantage within the city and not fear Lu Chuan.

Afterward, Lu Qianyu turned her sharp gaze towards Guan Tianjun, her eyes piercing, as if she could see through everything.
