The Old City Lord was very happy.
Because he could finally retire.
Once Gong Qingqiu became the City Lord, not only would Whitefloat City's star-level force status be secured, but he could also step down on the pretext of the new City Lord's ascension, preventing others from discovering the fact that he had lost all his cultivation.
Thus, his face was saved.
What a joyous situation this was!
Thinking of this, the Old City Lord quickly took out the City Lord's Token and the City Lord's Seal, and handed them to Gong Qingqiu, saying, "From today onwards, Daoist Gong, you are the new City Lord of our Whitefloat City."
He looked at Ye Feng and said, "Sect Master Ye, since Daoist Gong is an Elder of your sect, according to the rules, from now on, Whitefloat City will be a subordinate force of Misty Sect. I hope you will take good care of it."
Ye Feng nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will."
...
The City Lord handover ceremony was just that perfunctory.
An hour later.
