Qiao Dabao froze for a moment, intending to act together with Nanli, but the other family heads quickly pulled her back, urging her not to act impulsively.
Bai Peng was familiar with Cinian, which was why today's situation didn't escalate too much.
However, although the Upper Realm sects may not be as wealthy as the Four Great Families, their strength was second to none.
The Ten Great Cities of the Lower Realm were different from the Upper Realm, where many ordinary people who were not suitable for cultivation lived. These people were surviving in the cracks and couldn't afford to provoke the Upper Realm sects.
Qiao Dabao pursed her lips, feeling a mix of emotions.
Seeing her hesitation, Nanli spoke, "Then let Lord Qiao become the city lord. You all have no objections, right?"
The other family heads immediately agreed.
Qiao Dabao was still stunned when Nanli took a drop of her own blood and placed it into a small piece of wood.
