X-Dragon Era-Chapter 507 - s 367-369: The Prototype of the Dragon Gate_3

Hearing the children's words and not waiting for Xin Yun to reply, Luo Fu was the first to brighten up, stretched out his palm with a swoop and gently patted the eldest's head, saying, "You little rascal, don't worry about whether the position is big or small, as long as it's given by the sect leader, you have to be grateful!"

At this point, Luo Fu paused slightly and then continued, "As Seven Kill Commanders, the 'Seven Kills' represent the tasks of the seven of you, which, to put it simply, means killing. However, commanders are usually external positions, so you are effectively our Longmen's vanguard officers!"

"Vanguard officers? Aren't those minor officials?" The eldest exclaimed in disappointment upon Luo Fu's words.

Shaking his head helplessly, Luo Fu said with a bitter smile, "I really wonder if you are my son, how can you be so dumb! If you were really just minor officials, why would the sect leader bother to grant me authority over you? Don't you understand that?"

Hearing Luo Fu's words, the eldest's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said excitedly, "So that means, if you hadn't been granted this authority, we would all be of the same rank?"

Nodding with a smile, Luo Fu said proudly, "You're finally getting it, not too dim-witted after all... In the areas you are responsible for, you have supreme rights; however... along with enjoying these rights, you will also be subject to restrictions from other departments. Within a sect, everyone must accept such restrictions, even the sect leader is no exception."

Looking at Xin Yun excitedly, the eldest asked tensely, "Sect leader, can we ask what exactly we need to do? How should we behave on a regular basis?"

Hearing the eldest's question, Xin Yun this time did not remain silent, but smiled and said, "As Seven Kill Commanders, your mission is indeed slaying. Anyone who dares to cause trouble in our cities can be struck down by you at any moment! In summary, you are the Seven Kill Commanders who maintain the peace of our cities, and anyone who disrupts this peace is your target!"

Upon hearing Xin Yun's explanation, the children's eyes shone brightly—they were children, after all, who loved playing war and being heroes, especially those inclined to stand up and help in the face of injustice, which was just the kind of thing they loved most!

Fantasizing is something everyone does, and they had even begun to envision themselves as impressive figures, with images of being adored by countless girls, such excited about a mission that was too good to even ask for!

Watching the children's excited expressions, Xin Yun said with a smile, "Normally, your primary task is still to practice martial arts, after all... at your age, it's mostly about training. When you have free time, you should patrol the city... if there's any trouble, you must respond immediately. A light punishment will suffice for minor issues, but for more serious offenses, a bloodbath is necessary to appease the public's anger!"

"Mhm, mhm, mhm..." Hearing Xin Yun's words, the children excitedly scratched their ears, but still, the eldest prudently asked, "Uh, sect leader... could you tell us which city are we supposed to protect? Is that city big? Is it bigger than our Great River City?"

"Great River City!" Xin Yun was taken aback by the question, and then broke into hearty laughter. Shaking his head amidst the laughter, he said, "Why are you comparing it to Great River City? There's no comparison at all."

"Ah!" The eldest thought Xin Yun's remark meant the city wasn't as large as Great River City and couldn't help but look disappointed.

Seeing the disappointed face of the child, Xin Yun smiled and said, "You will be protecting Shoushan City, a metropolis with a permanent population of thirty million people. Well... I'm not sure about the specifics, but at the very least, Shoushan is a hundred times bigger than your Great River City, if not more!"

"Wow!" The children screamed in amazement upon hearing Xin Yun's words. With their limited experience, they simply couldn't imagine what a city a hundred times bigger than Great River City would look like!

Although, population-wise, Shoushan certainly wouldn't be a hundred times larger than Great River City, the more people there are, the bigger the necessary facilities become, such as various shops, restaurants, taverns, hostels, commercial areas... which take up a vast amount of space.

Swallowing hard, Luo Yong, who was Luo Fu's elder son, asked arduously, "It's that big, huh? Can just the seven of us manage it?"

Hearing Luo Yong's question, Luo Fu finally couldn't help but say, "Of course, it's tough to manage, but we're not pressuring you. Do what you can, and if it's not enough, you can always gather some friends to help out!"

Upon Luo Fu's words, the seven children grew even more excited. Seeing this scene, Xin Yun laughed and said, "Calm down, don't get so worked up over everything. You are my personally appointed Seven Kill Commanders in charge of a metropolis with thirty million people. If you go out and keep getting so startled, it will diminish the prestige of our Longmen!"

In the midst of speaking, Xin Yun turned his head towards Yi Luo Xiang and said, "Yi Luo, you need to keep a close eye on these youngsters. They are our new force. If they need anything, give them money if they need money, and items if they need items. Their material support must be ensured!"

"Sure... don't worry, I know what to do," Yi Luo Xiang replied with a smile upon hearing Xin Yun's words.

Satisfied with the nod, Xin Yun turned back and continued to address the Seven Kill Commanders, "No one can teach you exactly what to do; you'll need to figure it out and act on your own. I'll just say this: whatever decisions you make, we will support you unconditionally. Whatever you need, you'll get!"
