Chapter 471 The Luminous Tree Has Died?
“Use their uncle to negotiate with them and hand over the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella!” Agatha probed.
In order to survive and avoid punishment for herself and her captain, she had no choice but to hunt down the Qiu sisters.
However, she felt that threatening the other party's family was too despicable.
“This is the last resort.” Sangluo shook his head with a wry smile and sighed. “Let’s gather more intelligence on Dragon City first. I don’t want to use this method unless absolutely necessary.”
After all, the two sisters are only at the fourth or fifth level, which is really too weak.
They posed no threat whatsoever to the city of machines.
The main reason the Mechanized City was to hunt down A Qiu and Dong Dong was to retrieve the Thousand Chance Umbrella.
As long as the two sisters hand over the Thousand Chance Umbrella, everything will be fine!
"However, they should live in the inner city, and we can't get in!"
"Wait! We'll wait on the commercial street until they leave the city!"
……
The inner city, the city lord's mansion.
"Lord Xiao Yu, the children have been settled." After sending the children to the orphanage, the three beast-eared girls returned to the city lord's mansion.
At this moment, Xiao Yu was fiddling with the Thousand Chance Umbrella.
He has just solved 21 mechanisms and has already come up with new ideas for improving the Zhuge Crossbow.
This made him feel even more that the Myriad Manifestations Umbrella was unfathomable.
Upon hearing the three women's report, Xiao Yu nodded and said:
“Those children have recently lost their families, and you have similar experiences to them.”
During this time, you should try to comfort and guide them.
Once they've adapted to life in Dragon City, you'll be primarily responsible for teaching them.
If I have time, I'll go help you.
“Okay, no problem.” June and the other two exchanged glances and nodded in agreement.
These are the children they insisted on saving, so naturally they must take full responsibility for them.
Unlike the other children at the academy, they witnessed the massacre of their loved ones from a young age.
Such psychological trauma can last a lifetime, so it's really not suitable for them to go directly to the academy.
It might be better to teach them individually.
"By the way, what should we do with this guy?" The wolf girl looked at the person still lying on the ground.
He was the son of the Blood Cave City Lord, and also the one whose head she beat into a pig's head—Blood Fiend.
"Have you vented your anger enough?" Xiao Yu shrugged casually and said indifferently, "If not, then beat them up again. If you have vented your anger enough, I'll throw them into the pottery factory."
Bringing this guy back serves two purposes: first, to threaten the Blood Cave City Lord into obediently handing over the money; and second, to let the three women vent their anger.
"That's enough, just throw them into the pottery factory!" June nodded, a devilish smile spreading across her face.
Previously, when Black Soil City attacked, a fifth-tier expert was captured alive.
This person is currently being held in a pottery factory for forced labor, where he will have to work for ten years before he can regain his freedom.
From morning till night, all we do is fire ceramics; only if we fire them well can we have something to eat.
This Blood Fiend is extremely wicked; he should be made to serve for at least a hundred years!
If he dares to slack off or not work hard enough, he won't even get to eat!
"Lord of the City!" At this moment, Xiaoyu's voice rang out from the doorway.
"Come in," Xiao Yu replied calmly.
Then, Xiaoyu led a young girl in.
Xiao Yu asked gently with a smile, "Is something the matter? How are the children?"
"Rest assured, Lord City Lord!" Xiaoyu bowed slightly before replying.
"The children are new to Dragon City and are understandably a little unsettled. I've arranged for someone to take care of them. By the way, Lord City Lord, aren't you always short-staffed? What do you think of this young lady?"
As Xiaoyu spoke, she pulled the girl forward to bow.
"Yaoyao, isn't she too young?" Xiao Yu smiled amiably.
He looked at the little girl who had been cleaned up; she had completely transformed.
However, he looks only twelve or thirteen years old, even younger than Xinglan. He doesn't hire child laborers here!
"Lord City Lord, I am very capable!"
Upon hearing this, Yao Yao immediately became flustered and hurriedly explained, "Don't underestimate me just because I'm young. I started helping my parents with chores when I was three or four years old. My father always says I'm his most capable assistant..."
As the little girl spoke, a wave of sadness washed over her.
My father is gone, and so is my mother.
Even though she is more mature than the average child.
But in the past two days, my parents and other relatives have died right in front of me...
But in the end, the little girl managed to stop her tears and refused to cry.
"Good, you can stay at the City Lord's Mansion then." Xiao Yu nodded appreciatively.
Whether a person's emotions are stable is a sign of their maturity.
Although the little girl is young, she has good emotional management skills and deserves special attention in developing them.
"Really?" Upon hearing this, Yao Yao's tears, which she had just stopped, instantly fell again.
"Now that you've joined my Dragon City... I'll stand up for you." Xiao Yu stepped forward and patted the girl's shoulder, reassuring her, "If you want revenge, I'll help you become stronger so you can take your own revenge!"
"Thank you, Lord City Lord! I will certainly not let you down!"
……
A moment later, Xiao Zhuo, the maid who had received her sister's telepathic message, rushed back from the gourmet restaurant.
"Are you Yao Yao? You're so beautiful!" Xiao Zhuo liked Yao Yao very much at first sight.
Since arriving in Blood Cave City, the food stalls have become popular again.
Xiao Zhuo, who has been promoted to lobby manager, is naturally very busy with work.
After cleaning the city lord's mansion and finishing my daily tasks in the morning, I went to the food court.
However, according to my older sister Xiaoyu, they have found a new maid for the city lord's mansion.
She put aside her work at the food court and came back to check on things first.
After all, once Xiao Zhu became the lobby manager, the food court appointed a new assistant lobby manager.
When the City Lord's Mansion is busy, Xiao Zhuo will return to the City Lord's Mansion and let the Deputy Manager of the Main Hall look after the Food Building.
Hearing Xiao Zhuo's words, Yao Yao smiled shyly and bowed slightly, "Thank you, Sister Xiao Zhuo."
"Your sister told me everything, poor child."
Seeing that Yao Yao's eyes were still a little red, Xiao Zhuo stepped forward with heartache, hugged the little girl tightly, and said gently, "Although your parents are gone, you have to look forward. Your parents wouldn't want to see you sad all the time, would they?"
And...from now on, Dragon City will be your new home, and we will all be your family!
"Thank you so much, Sister Zhuo! Waaah..."
Xiao Zhuo usually works in the food court and has met all sorts of people, handling all kinds of matters very well.
So, after the call, the little girl immediately let down her guard and burst into tears.
"Okay, stop crying, you'll look ugly if you keep crying."
Xiao Zhuo touched Yao Yao's little face with heartache, wiped away her tears, and said, "Lord Xiao Yu is a very kind person. You don't need to be reserved in the City Lord's Mansion."
"I know," Yao Yao nodded gently.
In the past, when they met some important figures in Blood Cave City, the other party would ask them to kneel down.
Upon seeing Lord Xiao Yu, she wanted to kneel down to thank him.
As a result, Lord Xiao Yu reached out and helped her up.
He also told her that in Dragon City, no one has to kneel!
This kind of city lord is truly wonderful!
