When Jiang Chen opened his eyes, he found himself lying in a clean and spacious room. A stunning girl with bright eyes and teeth was scrubbing his forehead with a white towel.

He looked inside and found that the injuries on his body had healed. It seemed that the nine-turn golden body was worthy of being an excellent technique to temper the body. After practicing, his body's recovery was several times stronger than before.

Moreover, what made him most overjoyed was that after experiencing this battle that almost cost him his life, his body has now reached the stage of quenching his body. He has already refined the first level of quenching his body in the Nine-Turn Golden Body Skill.

In addition to being surprised, Jiang Chen struggled to sit up, and then subconsciously asked, "Where am I?"

After hearing this, the girl also said "huh" in surprise. Obviously, she didn't expect Jiang Chen to wake up so soon.

Looking at each other, Jiang Chen couldn't help but say in surprise: "Zihan, it's you?"

This woman was Wang Zihan, who had a relationship with him during the battle at Yin Lingchi. I heard that this woman was a key training target for Tianming Peak because of her excellent spiritual roots and excellent talismans. Moreover, because she was beautiful and smart, she was very popular among the younger generation of disciples and had many suitors, and Wan Liang was one of them. The reason why Wan Liang wanted to accompany him to break into Wunan City this time was that she wanted to find Wang Zihan was the most important reason, which made him almost laugh out loud.

"Yes! You scared us a lot. Fortunately, I checked your injuries and found that except for excessive bleeding, there was nothing serious! And many wounds have begun to recover... Your vitality is so tenacious! No wonder Senior Brother Wan admires you so much!" Wang Zihan also said with envy.

"Where am I now? Where are Wan Liang and Xiaoqian?" Jiang Chen asked hurriedly.

"You are in the city lord's mansion now! Wan Liang and your corpse servant are discussing things with the sect's foundation-building cultivators. They didn't expect you to wake up so soon!" Wang Zi smiled with his lips pursed. His expression was extremely moving.

"City Lord's Mansion? Isn't Wunan City without the City Lord's Mansion?" Jiang Chen said in confusion.

"It turns out that there is no, but after the death of Song Dunzhu, Deputy Dunzhu Liang became the supreme commander in the city, and then he became the temporary city lord and changed the original branch to the City Lord's Mansion." Wang Zihan said with disdain. Obviously, he had no good feelings for Liang Xing.

"Oh? Where is the leader of the beam now? I want to talk to him!" Jiang Chen rubbed his slightly sour arms and prepared to get off the bed.

"Master Liang? He has been killed by your corpse servant!" Wang Zi said quietly.

"Ah! I was killed by Xiaoqian? What's going on?" Jiang Chen said in shock.

Wang Zihan then blocked Liang Xing in every way and refused to lower the ban. He opened the city gate and sent troops to rescue him, which eventually led to him and Wan Liang calling Xiaoqian to take action. However, Xiaoqian said everything that directly killed Liang Xing.

Jiang Chen became more and more shocked when he heard this. Unexpectedly, Liang Xing was such a bad apple. He refused to save himself for his own selfishness. However, Xiaoqian was too hasty to kill Liang Xing. With the situation at that time, it was the best choice to stop him and order him to open the city gate.

Now, although with her initial ghost coach level cultivation, the monks in the city dare not publicly do not benefit her and herself. However, as the deputy rudder leader of the branch of Wunan City, Liang Xing has been in this city for nearly ten years, and there must be many trusted disciples. If this matter is not handled well, there will inevitably be chaos in the city.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen quickly put on his clothes, got up and got out of bed.

After putting on his coat, he said to Wang Zihan: "Zihan, take me to the hall! Now it's time for me to comfort them!"

Wang Zihan nodded, so he led Jiang Chen to the hall of the temporary city lord's mansion.

After Jiang Chen walked into the hall, everyone stopped talking immediately and turned around and looked at him in shock.

He looked around and saw that the hall was really huge, about a hundred feet in a radius. Now there were more than 30 Foundation Establishment Cultivators sitting, all of whom were talking about it.

Wan Liang was originally talking loudly with several other monks about something. When he saw Jiang Chen appear, he was overjoyed and said, "Senior Brother Jiang, you are awake! Your injury has healed tens of thousands of times? We are all going crazy!"

"Haha, thank you for your concern! I have completely recovered!" Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Then he glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "What are you discussing? Why don't you tell me?"

At this time, a despicable monk sneered: "Jiang Chen, your corpse servant did a good thing and killed the leader of the beam. How do you explain this?"

"What Xiaoqian does is equivalent to what I do! Even if you are on my head!" Jiang Chen said coldly. For Xiaoqian, who can stand up for him at critical moments, even if he acts a little bit sloppy, it is worth his full efforts to maintain it.

"We have already used Fei Ge to pass on this matter and reported it to the sect. I believe the sect will deal with it!" The monk smiled and said, "You probably don't know that the Lord of Liang is the disciple of the ancestor Tiangui!"

After hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but frown. If this matter was exposed to the top leaders, it would be difficult to explain. Although the Ancestor Tiangui is not as powerful as the Ancestor Tianyou in the sect, he is also one of the real power figures. Don't say that a small foundation-building cultivator cannot fight him, even his master, the Ancestor Demon Soul, has a lower status than him.

Moreover, this person was said to be a very protective person. If he learned that he had killed his disciples, it would probably be very unfavorable to him.

"Senior Brother Jiang, this person is Liang Xing's confidant. As early as when you were in a coma, he and a group of Liang Xing's people were clamoring to arrest you. If it weren't for Senior Brother Wan's efforts to stop him, and they also knew that with Xiaoqian's level of ghostly handsome zombies, they would not be able to do anything, and they would probably have to take action against you." Wang Zihan whispered to Jiang Chen at this time.

After hearing this, Jiang Chen's eyes flashed with a sharp light, but then he smiled faintly and nodded, "Don't worry! I know how to deal with it."

Immediately, Jiang Chen found a chair and sat down. Then he smiled and said to the confidants of Liang Xing: "It seems that the junior brothers are very dissatisfied with Jiang!"

"Of course! The leader of the beam was not at fault. Why did your corpse servant kill him? And just to save you, he lowered the ban and opened the city gate. If the enemy takes advantage of the situation, our Wunan City will fall?" One of the eloquent monks was not furious when they saw that Jiang Chen was not angry, but talked to them calmly, and became even more arrogant, thinking that he was a weak person who could be bullied and became more courageous.

"What should you do according to your wishes?" Jiang Chen still had a faint smile on his face, but his tone was still calm.

Several monks looked at each other, then looked at one of the thin men.

Jiang Chen noticed that this thin man's cultivation level was the highest among the monks, and he reached the peak of the early stage of foundation building, only lower than himself.

The thin man winked at the monk who had spoken before and signaled him to speak.

So, the eloquent monk coughed twice, then gritted his teeth and said to Jiang Chen: "According to the current situation, although your cultivation is the highest, you are not suitable to serve as the temporary city lord. The command of the monks and body refiners in the city should be Zhang Yang, the captain of the law enforcement team in the city! He is currently at the peak of the early stage of foundation building. In the city, no one should have a higher cultivation level than him except you!"

Zhang Yang was the thin man he was talking about. As soon as he finished speaking, he immediately received a response from several people around him.

Zhang Yang smiled pretendingly and said, "Thank you to the kindness of your brothers, but Zhang's skills are not as deep as Brother Jiang. I'm afraid he is not suitable to be the city lord!"

The eloquent monk hurriedly took over the conversation and said with a passionate look: "Senior Brother Zhang has been the captain of the Wunan City Law Enforcement Team for many years and is very familiar with the situation in the city. He has also fought with the army of the Ziyin Sect many times and made great contributions. If Senior Brother Zhang cannot be the city lord, who can convince us?"

At this time, Jiang Chen could not see through the intentions of this group of people. They were originally from the same sect as Liang Xing, led by Liang Xing. Now that Liang Xing was killed by Xiaoqian, they recommended this person named Zhang Yang to take over the power in the city. But they were afraid of being blocked by themselves, so they incited other neutral monks to exclude themselves on the grounds that they killed Liang Xing. However, these people underestimated their determination too much.

After the monk finished speaking, the hall suddenly became silent. Everyone was watching Jiang Chen to see how he reacted. (To be continued...)
