After Transmigrating As A Demon, I've Been Adopted By Angels! Chapter 117
Advertisement
At the same time, in Blue Flame City.
In the City Lord's main hall, a middle-aged man sat on the throne.
The man's temples were already white, but his face was still as sharp as a knife. A terrifying dark gold light flashed past his eyes.
He was dressed in a luxurious long robe. His face was silent as he looked at guard Kroll who was kneeling in front of him.
The middle-aged man was the new City Lord of Blue Flame City, Myers.
At this moment, Kroll, who was kneeling in the hall, was kneeling on the ground with his hands behind his back. He was locked by handcuffs and anklets. At this moment, his face was pale from fear, and his entire body was trembling.
Bean-sized beads of sweat were left on his face and dripped onto the stone floor of the hall, making a ticking sound.
Kroll's pupils kept shaking. He did not dare to look directly at Myers.
"Tell me the truth.
"Where did you get so many gold coins from your pocket?"
Beside him, an old man said to Kroll in a hoarse voice.
"Sir...
"I, I..."
Kroll was about to say something when he was interrupted by the old man.
"Kroll, you don't have to think of any excuses. You don't have to lie to us.
"Lord Myers already has spies all over Blue Flame City. Don't tell me that you still think that the Blue Flame City now is still the original Blue Flame City?
"Tell us everything, and we can make you suffer less."
Krolll shivered and quickly told him about his trip to the dock to collect taxes from Malfoy.
After Kroll stopped speaking, Myers slowly stroked his beard and said, "Three people who followed the boatman into the city...

"Interesting. To be able to take out so much money at one time, I'm afraid that they are not ordinary people."
"Elder Almos, I'll have to trouble you to go and find out what these people are planning to do.
"Report to me immediately if you've found out the truth."
The elder called Almos nodded and asked, "Lord Castellan, how exactly is Kroll going to deal with this guy?"
Myers' eyes were indifferent and there was no change in his expression.
"How are you going to deal with him?"
"He has hidden the tax money and should be beheaded."
Hearing Myers' words, Kroll was so scared that he trembled. He quickly knelt in front of Myers and kept kowtowing.
"City Lord, I was wrong!
"I was really wrong. Please spare my life. I still have a hungry child at home and a wife waiting for me to go home.
"I only beg you to spare my life. I'm willing to work for you!"
Even though there was bright red blood oozing out from his forehead, he did not dare to stop.
However, the City Lord of Blue Flame city, Myers, did not care about Kroll's begging. He merely closed his eyes and pointed in Kroll's direction.
Beside him, Almos understood and took a step forward. He immediately dragged Kroll by the collar out of the hall.
Kroll was pulled out of the hall, and not long after, a wail spread throughout the entire Blue Flame City.
Myers, who had already closed his eyes on the throne, said to himself at this moment, 'The three of us, I hope we don't add any more variables to our plan.'
...
His gaze turned to the streets of Blue Flame City.
Davis was walking at the front, while Emily and Wharton followed closely behind.

This was Emily's first time leaving Pompeii City and heading to other cities. Although she was trying her best to remain calm, a hint of curiosity could still be seen in her eyes.
"Wharton, have you already planned your future life?"
Davis turned his head and asked.
Wharton thought for a moment and quickly replied, "Master, I plan to plant roots in Blue Flame City after this.
"I plan to buy a small house here. After that, I plan to become an apprentice in a blacksmith or a carpenter's shop and start learning a new skill.
"Emily is already 17 years old. Although Emily is already a little older, I still hope that Emily can go to school and study properly."
Wharton glanced at Emily and continued, "Emily's dead mother's greatest wish before she left was to hope that Emily could live well and be like an ordinary little girl on the street, living an ordinary life."
Davis smiled faintly.
"If that's the case, it looks like my intervention was a mistake."
"No, no, master, it's not like that.
"If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been killed by Kartoth.
"As for Jack and those old hooligans, if they didn't pay their tribute on time, they would definitely attack Emily.
"Without you, I'm afraid Emily's life would be unimaginable."
Wharton hurriedly said.
"Didn't you say that master's enemies are more powerful than we can imagine? Although you've said so, we still want to follow you.
"We'll stay in Blue Flame City. As long as you give the order, we can come back to serve you at any time.
"If Emily can study in a magic academy, she'll have a chance to become a noble in the Belgravia Empire. At that time, we'll be able to serve you better, won't we?"
Wharton said very respectfully.
Emily frowned and said to Wharton, "Father, I don't want to study.
"With our strength, we can completely control the entire Blue Flame City in a short period of time."
Wharton glanced at Emily and shouted, "You don't even want to fulfill your mother's wish?"
Emily frowned and immediately wilted.
In the distance, Almos appeared at the corner of the street.
According to Kroll's description, the Davis trio in the distance matched the target.
"I've found these three people."
Almos said in a hoarse voice.
Then, he heard Emily's words.
Almos' eyes could not help but instantly narrow.
These three people were just like what City Lord Myers had described. They had come to Blue Flame City with some unspeakable secrets.
In that case, Almos was prepared to test them.
Davis suddenly sensed something and turned to look at the corner of the street.
Almos was shocked. He quickly flashed and left the place, directly appearing on the roof.
He looked at Davis in surprise, feeling somewhat shocked in his heart.
"I have clearly used my concealment skill. How could he still discover me?
"No, I'm afraid it's just a coincidence."
Almos shook his head and continued to follow Davis and the other two.
Davis turned his head to look at the corner where Almos had stopped. There was no reaction.

The MC bears close resemblance to Fang Yuan in this regard, but his goal is not eternal life.One of my aims was to showcase the later introduced cultivation rules into the mortal cultivation (dao marks, attainment etc.) and explore novel scenarios within this highly technical cultivation environment.
