Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

As soon as the two people walked out of the palace, the elders of the He family who came with them gathered around them, with eagerness in their eyes.

One of the old men with white beard and hair asked.

"Dongsheng, how is the situation?"

When the others heard the words, they also pricked up their ears and listened.

He Dongsheng smiled and said.

"Don't worry, everyone! The next family representative of Yutan County will be a member of our He family!"

After hearing his words, the anxiety on the faces of the clan elders finally disappeared, replaced by smiles on their faces.

"Haha... I, the He family, have been waiting for decades, and now we are finally going to soar into the sky!"

He Dongsheng stopped everyone with a smile and spoke.

"Okay, clan elders, our top priority is to return to the clan as soon as possible and inform everyone in the clan of this good news."

"It is also necessary to arrange candidates for various positions as soon as possible to replace people from the Xu family to prevent them from causing obstruction and causing trouble."

After hearing this, everyone in the He family nodded in agreement, and then left the City Lord's Mansion in a grand manner just as they came.

......

In the city lord's mansion, after everyone dispersed, only Ling Yun and the heads of the Zhao and Xu families were left.

"City Master Ling, the county governor promised us the position of family representative, but now it is taken away by the He family. What should we do?"

Ling Yun sat back on the seat on the high platform, glanced at the head of the Zhao family who spoke, and then said in a serious tone.

"The Sheriff has advanced to the Golden Core realm for more than ten years and is considered a good player among the early Golden Core monks."

"But the spiritual pressure of senior Feng Lang just now is several times more powerful than the governor's. His true strength is at least in the middle stage of the Golden Core."

"Don't say it's me. Even if the Sheriff is here in person, the result today will be the same."

Hearing Ling Yun's answer, Zhao Manli frowned unwillingly.

The Xu family was not the only one who paid a huge price. In order to be able to serve as the family representative this time, the Zhao family also used their best daughter as the concubine of the county guard.

Now that the bamboo basket was empty, how could she not be depressed?

Ling Yun looked at the two family heads in front of him who were obviously unwilling to give up, and reminded them.

"The jade slip I just gave to the head of the He family contains the official seal given by the Holy Emperor. Unless the Holy Emperor comes in person, no one can change it."

"If you want to take back your position as representative, you may still have a chance."

Hearing this, Zhao Manli's eyes suddenly lit up and she hurriedly asked.

"I wonder if City Lord Ling has any good ideas?"

Hearing Zhao Manli's question, Ling Yun took a deep breath and then said seriously.

"I heard that the Zhao family has a secret treasure called 'Zhenhai Pearl'. It is a top-quality magic weapon passed down from ancestors."

"It is said that this thing is so powerful that even the golden elixir monks can't resist it!"

"To be honest, Lord Ling, our Zhao family does have this bead, but now that the family is in decline, we can no longer use this bead unless the governor comes in person."

When Ling Yun heard this, his expression suddenly changed and he spoke extremely sternly.

"How outrageous! The county governor has many things to do every day, and he also has to select the family representatives of the entire Jindan family in the county. How can he have time to take care of trivial matters such as you?"

"If no one in your family can use this sea-suppressing pearl, then after tonight, the role of the family representative will only be taken by the He family."

Hearing this, Zhao Manli's expression changed, and finally she gritted her teeth and nodded fiercely before speaking.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements for tonight's actions right away!"

After saying that, Zhao Manli shook her fat body and quickly left the city lord's mansion.

After Zhao Manli left, the head of the Xu family, who had been silent all this time, opened his mouth to speak.

"That's fine. After tonight, Yutan County will lose a top foundation-building family. Even if my Xu family loses the position of the family representative, it won't be too traumatic."

"Thank you very much, Lord Ling."

Hearing the words of the head of the Xu family, Ling Yun sneered and spoke unceremoniously.

"Master Xu, I advise you to keep these words in your stomach as soon as possible."

"I'm just saying this on the order of the county governor. If anything happens tonight, I will close the door of the city lord's palace tightly. I hope the Xu family master can take care of himself."

Ling Yun's words made the head of the Xu family turn pale for an instant, but due to the situation, he nodded helplessly.

Ling Yun snorted coldly when he saw this, and left the meeting hall with a puff of sleeves.

"Oh, I hope it won't cause too much trouble."

He murmured to himself, the speed of his feet became faster and faster, and soon disappeared from the sight of the head of the Xu family.

......

On the other side, after everyone in the He family returned to the mansion, they immediately told all their direct relatives the exciting news.

"Dongsheng, now that the He family has won the position of family representative, what should we do next?"

In the lobby of the He family's courtyard, an old man asked. This man was the previous head of the He family, He Dongsheng's third uncle, He Yuanshan.

"Third uncle, my nephew already had a rough idea on the way back and wanted to talk to all the clan elders."

He Dongsheng sat on the main seat, glanced at everyone in the room, and then talked.

"First, immediately follow the information in the jade slip and let the direct descendants of the family go to various places in the county to take up posts, so as to control the interests of the county as soon as possible."

"Second, beware of the Zhao and Xu families getting in the way these days, especially tonight. All He family monks must brace themselves. After tonight, my He family will be the next family representative recognized by the government. They will If you take action, you will definitely choose tonight as your only chance."

"Last point, I plan to give 50% of the profits from the second-level spiritual stone mine to Mr. Zhou."

After He Dongsheng said these three sentences in one breath, everyone present fell into deep thought, and no one raised any objection.

Obviously, the He family's success in taking down the family representative today also showed that there was a real Jin Dan as their backer.

After a while, an elder from the He family on the side suggested.

"Patriarch, since you have decided to rely on Mr. Zhou, you must work hard."

"In my opinion, this time I might as well convert 50% of the proceeds into equivalent spiritual stones and spiritual objects. In this way, I can express my He family's attitude to Mr. Zhou."

He Dongsheng nodded after listening to the elder's suggestion.

Giving the other party the income from the spiritual stone deposits would inevitably lead to the suspicion of taking the opportunity to tie the other party up, but if it were in kind, then there would be no consideration for convenience.

In this way, it will not only show the He family's intentions, but also take this opportunity to eliminate the previous misunderstanding between the two parties.

He Dongsheng lightly touched the table with four fingers and gave instructions.

"Okay, then please ask the great elder to make arrangements!"

"Remember, after today, our He family will become the first family in Yutan County. It is only a matter of time. We must meet the needs of Mr. Zhou so that he can protect my He family tonight."

"Yes!"

Hearing this, the eldest elder of the He family bowed his hands respectfully, turned around and walked away.
