"Good! Good!"
"This time, Qingyun Immortal City was able to advance to a Fifth-Grade Immortal City, and Steward Zhou deserves the greatest credit."
City Lord Weng said to Zhou Ling with a smile.
His voice was hearty, and he appeared immensely delighted.
Raising Qingyun Immortal City to a Fifth-Grade Immortal City had also been his longstanding wish, but the difficulty had been simply too great.
He had never been able to achieve it.
Yet he had never expected it to be accomplished in the hands of Zhou Ling, an early-stage Golden Core cultivator.
It was truly somewhat unbelievable.
"I never thought Zhou Ling could kill a Fifth-Tier Demon King with Golden Core cultivation!"
"This is simply inconceivable. Even with the aid of a Fifth-Tier Warship, it is not something a Golden Core Cultivator could accomplish."
"Forget Golden Core Cultivators—even I, at Mid Nascent Soul, absolutely could not do it."
"Indeed. Steward Zhou is, after all, a Fourth-Grade Artifact Refiner. Naturally, his methods of controlling a warship are beyond anything we can compare to!"
The surrounding Nascent Soul cultivators discussed the matter in astonishment as well.
"I was only able to accomplish this with the assistance of Senior Ji and the others from Five Spirits Immortal City!"
Hearing their discussion, Zhou Ling said with a smile as well.
He would use Ji Siqing as a shield for now.
He truly did not want to receive this much attention.
"Steward Zhou, there is no need for modesty."
"Exactly. You killed a Fifth-Tier Demon King. This is a matter that benefits the Dao Alliance."
"From now on, you will be the foremost figure of Qingyun Immortal City!"
Dean Zhong and the others spoke with faces full of joy.
The greater Zhou Ling's achievements, the more useful he would be to Xuanyuan Daoist Academy.
