Chapter 145 The Good Deed of the Day
"How about it? What do you think of this change in the rankings?"
Ji Xinghe held his chin with one hand and looked at the list interface in front of him with a deep gaze.
"To be able to surpass Qiu Changsheng, this man called Lin You is no ordinary person, but what I care about most is his kingdom ranking."
There was a hint of surprise in Ji Yunshuang's clear and cold eyes.
As someone who has been in the top five of the Principality's Rank Six list for a long time, she is naturally very familiar with the rankings and knows the horror of the Kingdom's list.
Because even she was only ranked over 100th in the kingdom.
This is enough to show how powerful the chosen ones of other principalities are.
This is not the most important thing.
The most important thing is that the top ten places on the kingdom list have always been occupied by people from the Shengyao Kingdom, and few people from the principality can successfully squeeze in.
However, as soon as Lin You appeared, he rushed directly into the top ten, even reaching the exaggerated level of fourth place.
Not to mention her, I'm afraid that all the sixth-level lords in the entire Shengyao Kingdom are now in an uproar.
Out of curiosity, she immediately asked, "Dad, do you know where he is from? Why have I never heard of this person before?"
"Of course you haven't heard of it." Ji Xinghe smiled kindly, "Because he just came last month."
"Last month? How is that possible!?"
Ji Yunshuang covered her lips with her hand, and the shock in her eyes instantly reached its maximum.
In just one month, from just arriving, he directly rushed to the top of the sixth-level list?
If Ji Xinghe hadn't said it himself, she would never have believed it was true.
"In fact, I was also very surprised. I didn't expect that such a talented lord would appear in our Great Wilderness Country, so I called you over to hear your opinion."
"Listen to my advice?"
"Yes, recently at the border battlefield, the Yuansha Realm and the Zhenyuan Realm have become increasingly restless. I'm a little worried about you going there alone, so I want to find someone to replace you. As a girl, it's better for you to avoid going there."
Ji Xinghe took Ji Yunshuang's hand in his and patted it gently, with indescribable doting and worry in his eyes.
Feeling his concern, the coldness on Ji Yunshuang's face gradually faded away, and she said sadly: "I just don't want so many of my kind to die."
"You are just too kind. This will hurt you sooner or later, don't you know?"
"I know, but I still want to do my best to fight for this world. I have...seen too many people die in front of me, just like that time. If I were a little stronger, even just a little bit, my mother wouldn't..."
At the end, Ji Yunshuang's voice began to tremble.
There was deep regret and self-blame in those clear and beautiful eyes.
This was an emotion she had never shown in front of other people, and only when facing Ji Xinghe would she reveal her most vulnerable side.
"Didn't you say not to mention this matter again?"
Ji Xinghe sighed softly, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
He reached out and gently wiped the tears from the corners of Ji Yunshuang's eyes.
"And you can't be blamed for that. Your mother must have thought the same."
"But."
Ji Yunshuang raised her head and wanted to say something else.
But when she saw Ji Xinghe's doting look, she swallowed her words back.
"That's right."
Ji Xinghe smiled slightly.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. Let's talk about the list. I just sent someone to call the person who was responsible for recruiting new lords last month. He should be here soon."
Speak of the devil and he will appear.
Just as Ji Xinghe finished speaking, a loud shout suddenly came from outside the hall.
"Lord of Luoyun City, Mo Wei wants to see you!"
"Come in."
Ji Xinghe's majestic voice echoed in the hall.
Then, a hunchbacked old man walked in cautiously with his head lowered.
Seeing this, Ji Yunshuang also stood up and walked to the side of the throne, returning to his usual cold expression.
"Meet the King."
Mo Wei bowed deeply to Ji Xinghe.
"No need to be polite."
Ji Xinghe said lightly.
He looked at Mo Wei with deep eyes, and then asked, "Were you responsible for recruiting new lords in the sub-plane last month?"
"Your Majesty, it is you, my servant."
Mo Wei's whole body trembled. Being only at the seventh level, he didn't even dare to look up and meet Ji Xinghe's eyes. At the same time, he was extremely panicked.
Because he didn't know why the king suddenly summoned a small figure like him. After all, the task of recruiting new lords has always been given to them, the seventh-level lords.
Even if someone asked about it, it would only be the eighth-level lord above him.
Who would have thought that there would be a day when he would be summoned by the king? Moreover, it had been a month since he recruited the lords, and he was suddenly summoned. He couldn't help but feel a little flustered, thinking that something big had happened.
However, what he didn't expect was.
As soon as he stood up, Ji Xinghe's kind voice came: "Don't be restrained, I summoned you just to ask you something."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"Regarding the recruitment of new lords last month, you were supposed to be in charge, right?"
"Yes, that is the responsibility of my subordinates." Mo Wei answered respectfully.
"Then do you remember recruiting a plant-based lord? And assigning him a small border town of the principality?"
As the king, Ji Xinghe knows the basic information of all the territories in the principality like the back of his hand.
As long as he wanted, he could easily find out which lord was in that city.
Mo Wei didn't expect Ji Xinghe to ask this suddenly. He was shocked and began to try hard to recall.
"It seems. There is indeed one. At that time, his evaluation was very low, only F level. I saw that no principality wanted him, so I recruited him to the Great Wilderness Kingdom. Could it be that he did something that harmed the principality!?"
Mo Wei still has a very deep memory of Lin You.
One reason was that Lin You was very polite, and the other was that Lin You was one of the few F-level lords he recruited, and the only one of the plant-type lords, so he remembered him clearly.
Now when Ji Xinghe suddenly asked him this, he was completely confused.
Could it be that the young man had done something detrimental to the interests of the principality, causing the king to send troops to punish him?
Thinking of this, Mo Wei broke out in a cold sweat and dared not even breathe.
Could it be that his momentary kindness would harm himself? But what he never expected was...
Facing his answer, Ji Xinghe was not angry at all. Instead, he asked with interest: "Do you remember his name?"
Mo Wei did not dare to hide it and quickly answered: "I think his name is Lin You? It has been too long, I can't remember it clearly, please forgive me, King."
"Forgive me? What crime have you committed? I can't even reward you in time."
"ah?"
Now Mo Wei was even more confused.
Finally, he couldn't help but raise his head and looked at Ji Xinghe with a puzzled look on his face.
He found that Ji Xinghe not only showed no signs of being angry, but instead had a slight smile on his face.
It doesn't look like he's coming to call for an explanation at all.
Could it be because of that young man?
Mo Wei was puzzled, but did not dare to ask more questions.
At this moment, Ji Xinghe's voice sounded again.
"The reason I called you here this time is actually to reward you for your meritorious service in recruiting a valuable talent for the principality. And I just heard you say that Lin You was recruited by you because he was rejected by other principalities because his evaluation was too low?"
"Yes, yes." Mo Wei nodded blankly.
"So there is such a thing?" Ji Xinghe looked thoughtful and a little surprised.
They didn't expect that the people in other principalities were so short-sighted that they would give away such an outstanding talent, and as a result, their Great Wilderness Kingdom got the advantage for free.
Mo Wei really made a great contribution.
After thinking about it, he said, "You may not know yet, but this plant lord you recruited has now ranked first on the Principality's sixth-level list, which is considered a great contribution to the Principality. Tell me, what reward do you want?"
"Oh, huh?"
Mo Wei was completely stunned, and for a moment he couldn't react to what was going on.
