If Dou Youyou had come alone, she would surely have been blocked at the gate. However, Zhang Pingfan accompanied her, and Zhang Pingfan's purpose for being there was very simple: to meet the City Lord of the Savage City.
An eighth-tier Battle Saint. If such a person appeared before Dou Youyou, no matter how powerful she was, she could only be instantly killed by him.
But it wasn't just Dou Youyou standing before them; it was also Zhang Pingfan.
Zhang Pingfan's initial address was quite respectful.
"Tell your Savage City Lord that the village chief of Pingfan City has come to see him!"
However, when the two guards heard this, they couldn't help but laugh, clearly not taking Zhang Pingfan seriously.
"Is the City Lord someone you can just see? You two country bumpkins, get lost before we take action against you!"
Zhang Pingfan frowned. Why were the people of Savage City so rude?
Zhang Pingfan was not polite either. He raised his hand and delivered two slaps.
"Slap!"
"Slap!"
Before the two guards could understand what was happening, they were already slammed into the wall.
"What are you?"
Looking at the two guards who didn't know their place, Zhang Pingfan sneered and led Dou Youyou into the City Lord's mansion.
This Savage City was indeed a place that even City Lord Pingjiang greatly feared. The guards in the City Lord's mansion were all formidable.
However, they were no match for Zhang Pingfan. After all, they were at most level 90-something, while Zhang Pingfan was already level 10,000.
There was no longer any fairness between them. Therefore, Zhang Pingfan could easily slap a ninth-tier Battle God to the ground, rendering him immobile.
With the commotion Zhang Pingfan had caused, the City Lord of Savage City was clearly rushing over.
When he arrived at the main hall of the City Lord's mansion, the City Lord, along with several subordinates, blocked Zhang Pingfan's path.
The City Lord of Savage City before them was a ninth-tier peak Battle God, accompanied by several other ninth-tier Battle Gods.
The City Lord of Savage City glared at Zhang Pingfan with ill intent.
He had received news that a ninth-tier Battle God had already been defeated by him.
"What do you mean, sir? Why have you trespassed into my Savage City Lord's mansion?"
Zhang Pingfan shook his head and said, "Your subordinates have no manners. I already said I am the village chief of Pingfan City and have come here to build good relations with you!"
"Pingfan City? Is that the Pingfan City that has risen recently?"
Zhang Pingfan nodded, surprised that the City Lord of Savage City knew about him.
"Yes, that's me. Since the teleportation array has been opened, it should be fine for me to come and befriend you, right!"
The City Lord of Savage City said unpleasantly, "I heard you have taken the City Lords of Pingjiang City, Seven Stars City, and Seaside City as your subordinates. Your visit here today should not be that simple! However, I am not like those three; it's impossible for me to become your subordinate!"
Zhang Pingfan was surprised that the City Lord of Savage City was so vigilant. He hadn't even stated his intention, and the City Lord had already guessed it.
"Don't be so formal. Look, as soon as the teleportation array between our two cities was opened, I came to visit you. My sincerity is evident, right? Just like those three City Lords, you won't be treated poorly as my subordinate!"
"Hmph, don't even think about it. How could I, a dignified ninth-tier peak Battle God, be humiliated by you? Moreover, this City Lord fears no one! I don't want to escalate this. Leave my City Lord's mansion quickly, and I'll pretend this never happened."
Leave? If I leave, how will my mission be completed? Are you kidding me?
Zhang Pingfan smiled and shook his head. "My mission isn't completed yet, how can I leave like this? Come, sign the contract, as my servant!"
The City Lord of Savage City's face contorted with rage.
He raised his hand and attacked Zhang Pingfan, clearly no longer wishing to exchange words.
Zhang Pingfan helplessly shook his head. This was a case of rejecting a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit. He insisted on being beaten.
Zhang Pingfan raised his hand and delivered a slap, followed by a kick.
After a few rounds, the City Lord of Savage City was utterly humiliated. If Zhang Pingfan hadn't held back, the City Lord of Savage City might have already perished.
Seeing that enough had been done, the City Lord of Savage City was also covered in injuries.
Zhang Pingfan once again took out the Master-Servant Contract.
"Come, sign the contract!"
"Bah! How could I, the dignified City Lord of Savage City, be willing to become your slave? Even if I die today..."
"Befriend!"
Zhang Pingfan no longer wasted words and directly used his divine skill, Befriend.
Even if the City Lord of Savage City didn't sign, he was now forcibly his servant.
A moment later, the City Lord of Savage City knelt respectfully before Zhang Pingfan.
"Your subordinate, City Lord of Savage City, greets Master!"
Zhang Pingfan said, "I knew I shouldn't have wasted words with you. I should have used Befriend directly. You wouldn't have had to endure a beating."
The City Lord of Savage City became Zhang Pingfan's fourth City Lord servant, and the most powerful one at that.
Although the City Lord of Savage City was unwilling in his heart, he now had no ability to resist and could only become Zhang Pingfan's servant.
Zhang Pingfan pointed to Dou Youyou beside him and said.
"This is my disciple. She will be leveling up in Savage City during this period. As my servant, you should know what you need to do!"
The City Lord of Savage City looked at Dou Youyou respectfully.
"Your subordinate greets Young Master!"
Dou Youyou nodded. Although she didn't know how Zhang Pingfan had turned the City Lord of Savage City into his subordinate, that golden light earlier was indeed extraordinary.
"Master, what was that skill you used just now? It looked so powerful! The City Lord of Savage City, who was resisting earlier, directly knelt and called you Master. Was it the same for the previous three City Lords?"
Zhang Pingfan nodded and said, "Yes, this is my innate skill. I can only use it once every 24 hours to permanently convert an enemy unit into my combat unit!"
"Wow, that's amazing! No wonder the three City Lords were so respectful to you. So you have such a heaven-defying skill. Why don't I have one?"
"It can't be helped. Your master is the chosen one. My mission is complete. Do you want to continue leveling up here, or return to Pingfan Town to level up to level 60 and then come back here?"
Dou Youyou shook her head and said, "I'll stay here. There must be a way to deal with the monsters on the battlefield. Otherwise, even if I reach level 60, I still won't be able to fight the monsters on the battlefield when I come here."
"Alright, if you encounter any problems, just find the City Lord of Savage City, understand?"
"Got it. I need to start researching. You're so powerful, I can't drag you down!"
Zhang Pingfan nodded. At this moment, his mission was complete, and he had received the system prompt.
[Ding! System Prompt: Congratulations on completing the mission of subduing the City Lord of Savage City. Reward: One sect guardian divine beast, the Iron Rooster.]
