C157 Free City

Although he said so, the guards were not so easy to talk to. Although Yat Empire also believed in the God of Light, because it was a newly established country, the influence of the Church was not so deep-rooted.

The guard's idea was also simple: "Can your Light Vatican bring us victory? Marquess can! Can your Light Vatican save us when we are in danger? Marquess did it. " No matter how high the status of this old man was in other places, he would still feel stifled in front of him!

The old man was truly a scholar who met a soldier when he met such a hotheaded young man. He left with the young man in a huff. Before he left, he didn't forget to remind Tian Qingtian that he would come again.

"Hmph! Come on, I don't know how many benefits this Pope has received from them. He actually dared to send people to interfere in the war. But it just so happens to give me a way out, this young master is extremely vexed right now. It won't be too late for the two of you to go after I've toyed with you enough." As he thought about it, Qingtian put on this long robe and walked onto the main street.

As Qingtian didn't want to continue attacking, he had already stopped in this city for quite some time. However, he still did something. From the first day he came to the city, he chased all the nobles out. He also said that if there were any nobles in the city within a day, Marquess would kill them.

With Sky High's evil reputation outside, who wouldn't be afraid of him if they didn't care about their lives? In less than half a day, all the nobles in the city had run away. Moreover, he had a rule that all the nobles who left this place could only take away half of their property. Otherwise, they would have to leave their lives behind. This kind of intimidation effect was surprisingly good. A large amount of property was left behind.

Qingtian didn't take it for himself. In order to change his image among the people, he didn't take it for himself. He gave the money to the civilians. He also claimed that as long as Art ruled here for a day, there would be no more nobles in this city, and the civilians would no longer be oppressed. As soon as these words were spoken, the entire scene boiled up. "What's going on? This Demon King of Killers actually treats the poor so kindly?" "Don't you know? I heard that he was like this when he was in Art, for the sake of a dying civilian. He even crippled the Prime Minister's son. " "Is that really the case? It seems like this Marquess is not that scary! " "Of course, those are only legends of the empire."

Just like that, under the incitement of some people, the image of Sky High became bigger and bigger. Everyone couldn't help but believe it. What they got was real gold and silver! They got so much wealth for nothing. They didn't need to pay any price. However, Atlas announced another important piece of news: From now on, this city will be renamed "Freedom City." As long as it is under Art's rule, there will be no class. Everyone is equal. If someone violated it, then they would have to face themselves. Furthermore, they would be exempted from taxes for a year, and the taxes would be halved for the next three years!

After a long time, this "Free City" would be renamed to Ashlow City, and it would continue the tradition that Atlas had established. This was also the only city in the entire continent that did not have any aristocrats, and there would not be any aristocrats who would dare to come here to cause trouble. Unless you don't want to live anymore.

What did the people need? It's equality and freedom, it's tax reduction. Since Atlas had given them something that they would never be able to think of in their entire lives, naturally, no one would say anything about it. Just like that, his position in this city was still very high. Because he had always been wearing a white robe with a long sword on his back, this kind of appearance was very easy to recognize. Thus, everyone on the street would stop what they were doing and greet Qingtian. Everyone looked at him gratefully.

Qingtian also greeted everyone with a smile. Wherever he went, he would hear everyone's praises. There were even many merchants who stuffed their items into his arms. Qingtian knew that he couldn't always reject such good intentions. This would make the other party uncomfortable, so he obediently accepted it. Not long later, his body was full of things. However, before evening, there was nothing left.

Although half of the property of the nobles was given to the civilians, this city was indeed very poor. As it was located at the border, it was very difficult for the Empire's control to extend here. The city lords here were colluding with a few great nobles, continuously squeezing the residents here. Although it was not to the point where the people did not have a good life, it was indeed very difficult.

Atlas slowly came to the slums and gave all the things he obtained to the people here. Then, he searched every house and found that there were sick people who immediately treated them. Lu Yuan had taught him some Dao arts to cure illnesses and save people. He thought that he might get hurt. Because he knew about Maya's experience, the old man could not trust the medical skills of this world.

At this moment, Qingtian was using it. There was a huge difference between his Dao arts and the light system's treatment. He was completely using the True Qi in his body to help them treat their illness. He was not relying on the Light Healing Technique, which could only treat external injuries. Although it was a little slow, the effect was much better. After a few days, many people who looked down on illnesses had already been cured by him. Everyone was extremely grateful to Marquess.

Seeing that today's matter had most likely been resolved, Qingtian found an empty space and sat down. He took out his Xiao. At this time, all the children in the slums would come out to see this handsome big brother blowing his flute. This big brother not only brought delicious food for himself every day, but also brought him delicious food. And can blow out a nice sound with that weird thing. This had already become the "compulsory course" for the group of friends every day!

However, at this time, Atlas saw two familiar faces. The two Priests, one old and one young, appeared here. Ignoring them, he began to play a song for the children. A mellow and cheerful voice rang out from the Atlas Changxiao. The children were intoxicated by it.

Speaking of which, the two priests sent away by Sky High: How can I go back if I haven't completed Pope's mission? The old man never would have thought that the other party would be so sharp-tongued that he would be refuted no matter what he said. The two of them had no choice but to come out with their tails between their legs and look for another opportunity. No matter what, they had to invite Ashlow back.

The two of them had also heard that the environment in the slums was very poor, so they came here to treat illnesses and save people! Although the old man was very unwilling, as a cardinal, he had to go down to the wretched slums to treat the illness. However, he couldn't stand the entanglement of that shy little priest, and in the end, he still came.

However, when he came here, he found that it was completely different from what he had imagined. This slum wasn't as dirty as it had been before. The people inside were all very energetic and rarely fell sick. Even those who seemed to be in poor health looked as if they were going to recover. Along the way, they had heard everyone praise this new Marquess, but no one mentioned what kind of devil he was. It could be seen how popular Qingtian was in this place!

Not long after, they heard a pleasant voice coming from afar. The two of them walked over curiously.
