Chapter 2498 My father knows some information!
Finished!
It was as if all the strength in Tan Xiaoqiang had been drained away. He staggered a few steps before he managed to steady himself and prevent himself from falling.
He originally thought that relying on his relationship with Ling Tian, it was a foregone conclusion that he would become the number one family in Weicheng.
Who would have thought that an accident would happen today?
Do not!
I am not satisfied!
Tan Xiaoqiang stood up suddenly, looked at Ling Tian and said, "City Lord! You and I have the best relationship, why don't you let me be the first family! Have you been deceiving me all this time? You..."
call out!
Before he finished speaking, Liu Batian had already picked up a long sword and put it against Tan Xiaoqiang's neck, whispering, "If you dare to disrespect the city lord again, I will definitely kill you!"
Hearing this, Tan Xiaoqiang clenched his teeth, but still stared at Ling Tian, as if waiting for an explanation.
Unfortunately, when Tan Xiaoqiang was dissatisfied with Ling Tian and refused to agree to what he arranged, he was kicked out of Ling Tian's list.
Even if he becomes stronger in the future, Ling Tian will never let him become his follower.
After all, once you are unfaithful, you will never be used again. This is the bottom line that will never be broken.
Especially now, in front of so many people, he couldn't control his emotions, which was disrespectful to him. If Liu Batian hadn't taken action first, he probably wouldn't have let him go.
But you must say that Liu Batian, although he seems to be very scheming, at least he can maintain his own face. It is the existence of such people that can make Ling Tian's plan run more smoothly.
After thinking about this, Ling Tian looked at Tan Xiaoqiang and said, "Xiaoqiang, I think I treat you well, but you seem... never satisfied, and you rely too much on me. You should try to solve some problems on your own, understand?"
"And Patriarch Liu, since everyone supports your election, from today on, the Liu family will be the number one family. When this is over, don't leave yet. I have a few words to tell you."
"understand!"
Liu Batian hurriedly bowed his head to Ling Tian to express his loyalty.
On the other hand, Tan Xiaoqiang still had an expression of dissatisfaction on his face, but he didn't dare to do it again.
So he took a deep breath, snorted coldly, and turned and left.
Watching him leave, Ling Tian didn't bother to argue with him anymore. Instead, he said to the other family heads, "From today on, what Liu Batian said is what I want to say. You elected the Liu family, so you are not allowed to express your dissatisfaction anymore."
"If I ever discover that some of your families are secretly trying to hinder the Liu family, or attacking other families, don't blame me for being rude! If Weicheng wants to maintain stability, there must be a balance between the various families. This balance must not be disrupted!"
As soon as these words were spoken, many family heads instantly understood that Ling Tian sincerely hoped that Weicheng would become better and better.
So no one objected, and everyone lowered their heads to show their approval.
Later, Ling Tian also made some small requests, such as not bullying the citizens and not being arrogant and unreasonable by relying on his identity as a warrior.
There are also some requirements that families should help each other and have reasonable exchanges.
After everything was said and done, these families showed a little more respect for Ling Tian.
After all, the requirements Ling Tian mentioned not only constrained the big families, but also helped some small families.
So they all seemed very happy and expressed that they would follow Ling Tian forever.
Ling Tian waved his hand and let them go first, leaving Liu Batian alone. He said softly, "The first family in Weicheng has no real power compared to before. You won't blame me, right?"
"No." Liu Batian shook his head: "I am already very happy that the city lord can choose me to stand at the top of the family! As for the rest, I really don't have any pursuits, hehe!"
"Okay, stop pretending in front of me. I'm keeping you here for two reasons. First, starting today, I might need to go into seclusion for a while. Don't disturb me during this time. If you need anything, use the watch to contact me and I'll get back to you. Got it?"
Hearing this, Liu Batian was a little confused, but still nodded.
After all, in his heart, Ling Tian is already in an invincible position.
It is really hard to understand why such a powerful being would go into seclusion instead of enjoying the benefits brought by the position of city lord.
But even though he didn't understand, his respect for Ling Tian grew stronger and stronger.
Being able to make continuous progress and not be bothered by worldly things, to be honest, Liu Batian understood that if he were in Ling Tian's position, he would definitely not be able to bear it, but Ling Tian could not help it.
So he took a deep breath and decided to learn from Ling Tian. After returning, he would also discard some useless things and concentrate on improving his own realm.
At this moment, Ling Tian had no idea about Liu Batian's inner world. If he knew, he would probably laugh out loud.
After Ling Tian finished his first statement, he paused for a moment before looking at Liu Batian and said, "Tell me, whose opinion did you express in the Liu family when you said that to me today?"
Liu Batian was startled when these words came out. He stared at Ling Tian blankly, a hint of disbelief in his eyes. He said, "I, I, I... It's what I meant, City Lord, I..."
"Do you think you can deceive me?" Ling Tian raised his eyebrows and looked at Liu Batian: "To be honest, I can continue to communicate with you, otherwise..."
"I say!" Liu Batian heard this and said hurriedly, "Actually, my father asked me to say this. He has always been curious about you. Then I told him about our conversation yesterday, and he taught me this. City Lord, I..."
"Okay, I'm not asking you to do anything. Is your father still in your Liu family? Or..."
"At the old house!" Liu Batian nodded. "Would the City Lord like to meet you? My father is really curious about you, and he seems to know some information about the channel. This is what I wanted to tell you today, but you came to talk to me first, and I didn't have time to tell you."
Hearing this, Ling Tian frowned slightly and looked at Liu Batian and said, "Are you saying that your father knows the location of the passage?"
"Yes! City Lord, I remember everything you told me very clearly. I mentioned it to my father, and he said he knew something and asked me to tell you."
Hearing that Liu Batian's father knew the location of the passage, Ling Tian naturally would not continue chatting with him.
So he quickly stood up and looked at Liu Batian who was still in a daze and said, "Let's go, why are you still sitting here? Don't you want to take me to find your father?"
"Ah? Are we leaving now?" Liu Batian was slightly surprised, and at the same time understood the importance of the passage to Ling Tian.
So he quickly stood up and said seriously, "I understand, City Lord, I'll take you there right away!"
"Ah."
