Great Zhou, Liangzhou, Heyuan County.
Outside the main hall of the county government.
"With the death of the old County Lord, the future order of Heyuan County is worrying.”
"Sigh, the old County Lord is a Connate realm cultivator. When he's around, at least he can keep the city peaceful and intimidate those wealthy clans, demons, and ghosts.”
"The new county lord is young and doesn't look like he has a high realm. Can he control the situation and protect Heyuan County?”
"Who says so? But now that the old County Lord has left, the people of Heyuan City will have a hard time.”
"Alright, stop arguing. After all, they are officials sent by the imperial court. Don't discuss them in private…"
He could vaguely hear a few voices.
Zhao Xing stood in the main hall and looked at the plaque hanging in the mirror.
Chaotic memories surged into his mind.
"I actually transmigrated to become the county lord of Heyuan County in the Great Zhou Dynasty.”
"The Great Zhou Dynasty is unable to control the land, and the world is faintly showing signs of separation.”
"This Heyuan County is plagued by evil sects outside, and is threatened by powerful clans inside.”
"In the past, the county heads were either colluding with the clans or had a hard time getting out of the city. The previous county magistrate died for no reason?”
Zhao Xing had mixed feelings.
At this moment.
A screen of light appeared before Zhao Xing.
"Ding! "Detected that the host has inherited the position of the county lord. The host is automatically bound to the providence of Heyuan County and has obtained the blessing of providence. The host's current strength is Connate Rank-9."”
Name: Zhao Xing.
[Race: Human]
[Binding Range: Heyuan County]
[Cultivation: Houtian level nine.] (After the blessing of providence, it is Connate Level Nine.）
(Note 1: The blessing of providence is only effective within the host's territory. Currently, it is only in Heyuan County.) If you leave, you will lose the blessing.)
(Note 2: The stronger the Fate of the forces within the area of control, the stronger the buffs obtained.）
[Skill: Perception (Able to see what others are thinking.]）
Like the back of one's hand (Able to monitor any corner within the scope of control.）
Zhao Xing was slightly stunned.
He did not expect that he would actually obtain the system.
Moreover…
With the support of the system, his realm had also changed from the original Houtian level nine to Xiantian level nine!
This meant that he could do whatever he wanted in Heyuan County!
"Although it's chaotic, as long as I manage the county well, the strength I obtain from the blessing of luck will become stronger and stronger!”
"Right now, I'm only binding the Fate of a county city. If I were to bind it to a county or even a continent in the future, what kind of realm would I reach?”
"In the future, it's not impossible for you to fight for the world, become a Supreme, and live forever!”
"In this world, there are powerful experts who can ride the clouds and cut mountains and rivers.”
"But with the system, I might have a place in this world where the strong prey on the weak!”
Zhao Xing's eyes immediately became fiery.
He had once heard a saying.
Those who did not fight in troubled times would die!
If he did not want to be treated like an ant, he must first have the ability to protect himself.
"Report!" At this moment, a panicked bailiff ran into the hall.
"Sir, bad news, bad news Sir!”
Zhao Xing frowned as he looked at the bailiff and shouted,"How can you be so flustered!"
"Tell me what happened.”
The bailiffs below the stage were stunned. They did not expect the new county magistrate to have such a calm and composed bearing despite his young age.
Thus, he calmed himself down and told her what had happened.
"Sir, it's that Xian Tian snake monster from the Si Water River outside the city who is causing trouble again!”
"A few villages near the Si River were destroyed by it, and it even ate a lot of people!”
Ding! Mission system activated!
[Mission Description: Eliminate the Snake Demon]
Outside Heyuan City, in the Si River, there is a Xiantian level three snake demon. It eats humans and harms the villagers. The people of Heyuan County are suffering. Host, please kill it quickly!
[Mission reward: 10 Small Rejuvenation Pills, 1 Great Rejuvenation Pill.] Popular sentiment 100, prestige 100.
[Note 1: The Small Rejuvenating Pill can help a Houtian warrior advance by one level. The Great Rejuvenating Pill can help a Houtian level nine warrior advance to a Xiantian warrior.]
[Note 2: The host's popular support, prestige, and martial strength are directly linked to the luck bonus. Do not ignore such missions.] Host, please complete the mission quickly. The longer you delay, the more you will lose the people's hearts and prestige!
[Heyuan County Control Progress: 15%]
[Fate Level: County (Low-level)]
A series of notifications rang out in Zhao Xing's mind.
Zhao Xing quickly understood.
He had just taken office and had yet to fully control Heyuan County, which had a population of more than 100,000.
He had to trigger various missions to increase his progress.
"So that's what happened." Zhao Xing quickly made a decision.
"Quickly gather the military strength of the county government and follow me out of the city to kill the demons!”Zhao Xing said.
……
Outside the main hall of the county government, on the drill ground.
After a round of drumming, only a few people gathered.
Zhao Xing looked at the scattered eleven Pre-Sky Realm warriors with a cold gaze."Let me ask you, there are clearly close to a hundred people in the official register. Why are there only eleven people?”
"Milord, there were originally so many people. However, after the death of the old County Lord, some of them scattered and some ran away.”
"When I heard that you were going to kill the demon, I was just saying that I was sick…"
A murderous look flashed in Zhao Xing's eyes. Since that's the case, I'll deal with them when I return!”
Zhao Xing decided to put this matter aside for now.
Unexpectedly, just as he led these eleven people out of the county government, he encountered another carriage blocking his way.
A middle-aged man dressed in luxurious clothes alighted from the carriage. He was strong and powerful, and it was obvious that he was also an expert. He looked at Zhao Xing with disdain.
"Who are you? How dare you block my way?" Zhao Xing shouted.
"I'm the Li family's chief steward, Li Hong."
The middle-aged man said arrogantly,"
"The snake demons outside the city are causing trouble.”
"However, my Li family's elders sympathize with the people. If the county lord wants to solve this problem, go to the Li family's door and kowtow three times.”
"The Li family will send out a Xiantian expert to help the county lord expel the snake demon and return peace to the people.”
After Li Hong finished speaking, he looked at the young County Lord in front of him with a smug expression.
They had already investigated long ago. This County Lord was only at the Postnatal Realm and had come to Heyuan County alone to take office. He had no background at all.
This was to show the County Lord his might!
"Li Hong, how dare you!"
The 11 bailiffs following Zhao Xing were furious.
The Li family had gone too far.
However, this was the current situation. The county government did not have any Xiantian masters, so they had to rely on the big families for this kind of thing.
Even when the old County Head was around, he had no choice but to lower his head to the three great clans.
" You want me to kowtow to the Li family?!" Zhao Xing's eyes were cold, and his long hair moved without wind.
A terrifying aura burst out from his body.
Butler Li Hong instantly felt as if he was being stared at by a ferocious tiger, and his scalp went numb.
"I've long heard that the three great clans commit all kinds of evil deeds and prey on the villagers. They're even more terrifying than snake demons!”
"You are simply courting death by blocking my path today!”
Zhao Xing pointed his finger, and a stream of light suddenly streaked across the sky, heading straight for Li Hong's head.
"What?! Releasing Quintessential Essence, this is Xiantian…"
Li Hong's eyes widened. He was also a Houtian level eight warrior. However, just as he was about to move, a bloody hole appeared on his forehead.
"Bang!" Li Hong fell off the carriage.
Even in death, he never expected that this new County Lord would be so powerful and overbearing!
