Chapter 39
Revealing Divine Power, Shaking the Base

“The new Lord of Qing Shan will address all of Qing Shan Base!”

As soon as the announcement appeared on Qing Shan Television, it instantly attracted the attention of countless people in Qing Shan Base.

“The new City Lord is finally here!”

“Prices have been so chaotic lately.”

“Hopefully this new City Lord can do something about it.”

.

Many people in Qing Shan Base were discussing, their words laced with hope.

For ordinary people, the past period had not been kind.

Qing Shan High School No. 15

Wen Zhi Qiao was currently teaching the first-year students.

With her previous success in nurturing so many martial arts students, many students were eager to join her class.

“A new City Lord!?”

After receiving the notification, Wen Zhi Qiao couldn't help but murmur in surprise.

She almost never missed any broadcasts about Qing Shan Base.

For who knew if she might miss some opportunity?

After all, every time the direction of Qing Shan Base changed, there would be some opportunities for profit.

If it were earlier, Wen Zhi Qiao wouldn't have given it much thought.

But now, with her husband's strength rapidly rising, she could possibly get involved.

Furthermore, Wen Zhi Qiao also hoped the chaos in Qing Shan Base would end soon.

Although it had not affected her, there were many students from ordinary families in the school.

If their families were burdened with worries, the students would inevitably be affected too.

This would naturally have a significant impact on their cultivation.

Unfortunately, she was only a lowly first-rank martial artist.

Soon, an unknown number of people had gathered in front of the television sets in Qing Shan Base.

They were all waiting for the new City Lord's speech.

On the television screen, the signal started to switch.

When the switching was complete, a young figure, seemingly around thirty years old, appeared.

“My name is Ning An. I graduated from Nan Jiang Martial Arts University.”

“And I am the new City Lord of Qing Shan Base!”

“Prices will be stabilized from now on.”

“Any malicious price gouging will be severely punished.”

Right from the start, Ning An introduced himself, before continuing to speak.

New officials have three fires to light!

He wouldn't hesitate to deal with the vendors who were raising prices maliciously.

Of course, if these people were smart, they would know when to stop!

Even if they had some connections or interests behind them, under absolute power, they wouldn't dare complain.

As Ning An expected, many factions in Qing Shan Base began to take action immediately.

Honestly, these factions didn't need to offend the new City Lord over such a trivial matter.

Ordinary people didn't have much money anyway.

Even after accounting for the exchange rate, it wouldn't be much profit in terms of spirit stones.

Qing Shan High School No. 15

Wen Zhi Qiao and the other teachers were watching television together in the office.

The teachers thought the new Lord of Qing Shan might change some of the school policies.

However, when they saw the person on screen, they were all stunned.

“This one…!”

“Teacher Wen, isn't this your husband?!”

During Ning An's previous special training sessions for the students, he had met with the teachers.

Many teachers had a deep impression of this tutor from Nan Jiang Martial Arts University.

Because of what Sister Li had revealed earlier, many teachers knew he was a third-rank martial artist.

But how long had it been?!

This guy had turned around and become the person responsible for the entire Qing Shan Base.

To be able to take on this position, he must be a fourth-rank martial artist.

As teachers, they were well aware of the martial arts system.

They understood the gap between a third-rank and a fourth-rank!

At this moment, countless envious gazes were directed at Wen Zhi Qiao.

From now on, she was the most revered wife in all of Qing Shan Base.

“My husband, fourth-rank, Lord of Qing Shan!?”

At this moment, Wen Zhi Qiao was equally stunned and couldn't recover.

She had no idea when her husband had reached the fourth-rank.

The last time she went to Nan Jiang Martial Arts University, she hadn't heard him mention it.

She didn't know!

Ning An had no intention of showing off.

Whether he was a third-rank or a fourth-rank was essentially a matter of his identity at Nan Jiang Martial Arts University.

Besides, Xue Ling Ci was still around.

She wouldn't have missed any information about him.

Unfortunately, Xue Ling Ci had not been paying attention to the information about the school's tutors.

As soon as school started, she plunged into a frenzy of cultivation.

Naturally, she had overlooked the fact that Ning An's cultivation had already broken through!

In any case, today was definitely a surprise for Wen Zhi Qiao.

Of course, the surprise wasn't limited to Wen Zhi Qiao alone.

There were still quite a few people in Qing Shan Base who knew Ning An.

His former classmates, as well as his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and their family.

At the moment, the Wen family was in a state of disbelief.

The last time he came back, Ning An's father-in-law had taken his two brothers-in-law out to escort supplies.

This kind of escorting was undoubtedly very risky, but the profits were considerable.

His two brothers-in-law hadn't become martial artists yet, and his father-in-law had to give it his all.

As a result, Ning An hadn't gone to visit them!
