Early in the morning, a black car stopped in front of the Aolai City Orphanage.
Inside the orphanage, a stout man was sitting on the sofa in the reception room with a smile on his face, and Jing Ziyuan was sitting respectfully beside him.
This man is the administrator of Aolai City, Zhao Wuxiu. Because Aolai City is just a small city, belonging to the fourth-level city in the federal administrative planning, the city's chief executive does not have the full title of city lord and can only be called an administrator.
Despite this, Zhao Wuxiu is also a genuine Four-Ring Soul Elder, a purple-level manager of the Sun-Moon Federation who belongs to the ruling class.
After Jing Shaoyu finished washing up, he came to the reception room.
"Administrator, this kid is Jing Shaoyu." When Jing Ziyuan saw Jing Shaoyu coming in, she immediately stood up, walked over, took Jing Shaoyu's hand, and introduced him to Zhao Wuxiu. "Ayu, this is our Aolai City's administrator. Come on, say hello to the administrator."
"Hello, administrator!" Jing Shaoyu greeted Zhao Wuxiu obediently.
"Hello." Zhao Wuxiu smiled gently, stood up and said, "I heard that you have innate full soul power, that's great! Can you let me see your martial soul?"
"Okay!" Jing Shaoyu nodded in agreement, and then with a thought, the Origin Elf Martial Spirit instantly possessed his body.
"WOW!" Zhao Wuxiu's eyes suddenly lit up, and an excited look appeared on his face. He said in surprise, "Such a strong vitality, it is indeed a top-level martial spirit!"
He walked quickly to Jing Shaoyu, stretched out his hand and patted Jing Shaoyu on the shoulder, signaling him to put away his martial spirit, and said with emotion: "I envy you, kid. I hope you can come back to Aolai City more often in the future."
"..."
Jing Shaoyu didn't understand what Zhao Wuxiu said at first. He tilted his head with a puzzled expression, but after thinking about it, he understood and replied, "Okay!"
"Okay!" Zhao Wuxiu said excitedly, "Then let's get going. We have to meet the city lord in the afternoon, so we are in a hurry!"
As he spoke, Zhao Wuxiu walked outside first, and Jing Ziyuan followed closely behind, pulling Jing Shaoyu.
However, just as they walked into the yard, Na'er ran out of the house, hugged Jing Shaoyu, and said coquettishly: "Brother, Na'er wants to go with you!"
"Okay!" Jing Shaoyu agreed subconsciously and then immediately realized that something was wrong. He looked at Jing Ziyuan and Zhao Wuxiu nervously and asked, "Would it be okay?"
Jing Ziyuan looked unhappy, but Zhao Wuxiu didn't care and was still smiling. He said, "Then let's go together. There's enough space in the car anyway."
"Thank you!" Jing Shaoyu immediately breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this and said to Zhao Wuxiu gratefully.
Jing Ziyuan's expression also became much better. She looked at Zhao Wuxiu with gratitude. Then she glared at Na'er fiercely. It was obvious that she was very dissatisfied with Na'er's willful behavior.
Na'er, on the other hand, looked nonchalant. She hugged Jing Shaoyu, hanging her whole body on him, her little face full of a happy smile of success.
Aolai City is the most remote city under the jurisdiction of Donghai City. It is nearly 100 kilometers away from Donghai City. According to the speed of the soul-guided car, it takes three to four hours to go back and forth.
In the car, Zhao Wuxiu was concentrating on driving, Jing Ziyuan was sitting in the passenger seat, and Jing Shaoyu and Na'er were sitting in the back seat. Jing Shaoyu didn't expect that Zhao Wuxiu, as a county magistrate-level official and a soul master at the soul sect level, would drive himself and carry Jing Ziyuan, a subordinate, and her two children. For a moment, he didn't know whether to say that Zhao Wuxiu was close to the people or that he had some plans for him.
They arrived at Donghai City very smoothly, and the soul guide car drove directly into the Donghai City Administrative Office. After an inspection, they were taken directly to the city lord's office and met the city lord of Donghai City, Ouyang Jian.
Donghai City is one of the 18 first-tier cities in the Sun-Moon Federation and is a second-tier city in administrative planning. The chief executive of the General Administrative Office can use the title of City Lord, so the General Administrative Office is also often referred to as the City Lord's Mansion.
"I am Zhao Wuxiu from Aolai City. I am here to greet the Lord Mayor!" Zhao Wuxiu bowed respectfully to Ouyang Jian.
"Greetings, Lord Mayor!" Jing Ziyuan did the same thing.
As for Jing Shaoyu and Naer, since they were still children, they didn't need to care so much about etiquette. He was looking at the city lord.
Ouyang Jian was an old man who looked very serious. He had gray hair, a goatee, and sharp eyes, just like his name, like a sword. He waved his hand and said, "No need to be polite. I remember you, Zhao Wuxiu, King Kong Bear Martial Spirit, right?"
"Yes!" Zhao Wuxiu's face showed an excited expression. He stood up and said, "I am not talented enough. I have not broken through the bottleneck so far. I have failed the cultivation of the city lord and the general office!"
"Alas, no need to be modest!" Ouyang Jian waved his hand and said, "I already know your report. Which of these two children has the innate full soul power?"
Ouyang Jian's gaze fell on Jing Shaoyu and Naer, and his sharp eyes inevitably softened a little. No one would dislike cute children, let alone two of them, who were on the top of the appearance scale.
"Lord City Lord, he is Jing Shaoyu." Zhao Wuxiu suppressed his excitement, came to Jing Shaoyu and said, "This is Jing Shaoyu's adoptive mother, Jing Ziyuan, a clerk in the Administrative Office of Aolai City."
"Hello, Grandpa City Lord!" Jing Shaoyu called out to Ouyang Jian very obediently, looking at him with his two big eyes to give him a harmless look of innocence.
"Hello!" As expected, Ouyang Jian was bewildered by Jing Shaoyu's appearance. A barely perceptible smile appeared on his serious face, and he said, "I heard that you were awakened with full soul power. Can you let Grandpa see your martial soul?"
"Okay!" Jing Shaoyu released the Origin Elf Martial Spirit.
"This..." Ouyang Jian's face immediately revealed a trace of shock and excitement. He couldn't help but burst into laughter and said, "It is indeed a top-level martial spirit. God bless Donghai City! Hahaha!"
Ouyang Jian's laughter made Zhao Wuxiu very excited and made Jing Ziyuan completely relieved of her nervous heart. At least from Ouyang Jian's reaction, it could be seen that he was very satisfied with Jing Shaoyu.
"Kid, put away your martial spirit." Ouyang Jian said to Jing Shaoyu kindly, then turned back to his seat and looked at Zhao Wuxiu, "Xiao Zhao, you did a great job on this matter!"
"These are all your teachings, Lord City Lord!" Zhao Wuxiu's eyes flashed with ecstasy, his voice trembling a little, and he answered respectfully.
"Jing Ziyuan, right?" Ouyang Jian looked at Jing Ziyuan again and asked with a smile, "Let me take advantage of my age and call you Xiao Jing. You have raised a good son. What is your position in Aolai City? Are you interested in being transferred to Donghai City?"
"Ah?" Jing Ziyuan was stunned and speechless for a moment.
"Reporting to the City Lord, Sister Jing is the director of our Aolai City Orphanage. This time, she came to Donghai City. She wanted to trouble you to raise her level so that she could buy a high-quality soul for Ayu!"
"That's perfect," Ouyang Jian understood immediately and laughed. "The General Administration requires an office director, Xiao Jing, you can stay."
"Thank you, Lord City Lord!" At this time, no matter how stupid Jing Ziyuan was, she understood Ouyang Jian's intention and immediately thanked him excitedly.
"No need, this is what you deserve!" Ouyang Jian waved his hand and then said to Zhao Wuxiu, "Xiao Zhao, take Xiao Jing to handle the job transfer and docking procedures and handle other matters at the same time."
"Yes!" Zhao Wuxiu agreed immediately. "I'll do it right away! Sister Jing, let's go!"
"Ah? Then what about Ayu?" Jing Ziyuan asked subconsciously.
"Don't worry, I will personally take him to Donghai City to select a soul." Ouyang Jian waved his hand and said, "As a person with innate full soul power, my Donghai City Administrative Office will provide a yellow-level soul for free!"
"Will this be too much trouble for the City Lord?" Jing Ziyuan said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Oh, Sister Jing, let's go and handle the formalities!" When Zhao Wuxiu heard Jing Ziyuan's words, he suddenly felt dizzy and immediately pulled Jing Ziyuan out the door.
"Ayu, follow the city lord and don't run around!" Jing Ziyuan was pulled away and did not forget to remind him before leaving.
"Got it!" Jing Shaoyu agreed.
"Hahaha, good boy, let's go too!" Ouyang Jian looked at Jing Shaoyu. He liked him more and more and said with a smile.
"Yeah!" Jing Shaoyu pulled Na'er and followed Ouyang Jian's steps closely.
