Chapter 111: Casting a Long Line to Catch a Big Fish

  "Suhui Zhang came to check the accounts, and couldn't help but be a bit impatient. I see you're dusty and tired, so take the key and go rest first." Qi Haisheng's tone turned cold, and the other four clan leaders looked at Su Zhen with cold eyes, their threatening intentions not hidden in the slightest.

  It's as if Su Zhen didn't take the key, and he had to watch.

  "What do you mean? As the special envoy of Wanxiang Sect, I have the right to investigate all the large and small business associations in Taiyan City. Do you want to disobey?" Su Zhen picked up his teacup and took a light sip, his tone was calm and peaceful, without any ripples, and his face didn't reveal any expression.

  "What we mean is unimportant, what's important is what you mean." Feng Zhen Shan said with a hint of implication.

  Su Zhen's eyes narrowed slightly.

  He knew that Tai Yan Jiu Cheng was difficult to chew, but he didn't think it would be so hard to chew. The five clan leaders threatened him face-to-face, with a fierce and arrogant attitude, where did they put the Wanxiang Sect in their eyes? No wonder the people sent before either returned without success or died unexpectedly.

  This dinner party today is just a glimpse of it.

  "You young people all want to achieve great things, we understand, but it's not suitable for Tai Yan Jiu Cheng. Director Su should just honestly take the key and leave." said Zhou Kong Dao.

  "There's a saying 'the sky is high and the emperor is far away', Director Su, please take it to heart." The eastern withered wood was gloomy and eerie.

  "Taiyan Jiucheng has stood at the border for hundreds of years, and we have taken over for twenty or thirty years. Are there not enough envoys from the Wansi Sect? But Taiyan Jiucheng is still intact. I understand that President Su is young and vigorous, but don't be mistaken." Linger Houtu's eyes were deep-set in his eye sockets, his nose was like an eagle's hook, and at first glance, he looked like a cold and sinister vulture.

  The five big families' heads exchanged one word with me and one phrase with you, threatening Su Zhen.

  "What if I don't agree?" Su Zhen put down his teacup, his eyelids drooping like a sleepy old tiger.

  "There were many dissenting voices, all of whom have disappeared." Qi Haisheng was like a needle that calmed the atmosphere in the main hall, suppressing everything with an air of superiority, looking down on Su Zhen from above.

  "You want to kill me?"

  "Food can be eaten casually, but words cannot be spoken casually. Su Hui Zhang is a dignified and mighty saint of the Wanxiang Sect, and even if we had ten times more courage, we wouldn't dare lay hands on him. However, Taiyan Jiu Cheng is very chaotic, with all sorts of people mixed together - mountain bandits, scattered cultivators, and countless petty thieves. And because it borders Yan Yun Province, there are also heretics from the Zhushan Sect coming and going. If Su Hui Zhang died at the hands of the Zhushan Sect's evil cultivators while trying to maintain peace in Taiyan Jiu Cheng, we would build a temple for him." Qi Hai Sheng said indifferently.

  The conversation has reached this point, and both sides have made their positions clear.

  It's pointless to continue...

  Su Zhen smiled and stood up: "The five major families are indeed overbearing, threatening the disciples of Wàn Xiàng Zōng so brazenly! However, you should be grateful that you didn't lay a hand on me, otherwise..."

  Su Zhen didn't continue speaking, picked up her handkerchief to wipe her hands, and walked out: "I know you guys don't take me seriously, thinking I'm the kind of trash that can be dismissed with just a few words. I don't want to say more, giving you an opportunity to live, tomorrow afternoon I'll come again to ask the same question." While speaking, she walked to the door and stopped: "I hope the answer isn't the same as today's, I'm not always this merciful every day."

  Then he left the Qi mansion without looking back.

  Watching Su Zhen's back slowly disappear, Feng, Zhou, Dongfang, and Linghu, the four clan leaders, all had gloomy faces that seemed to be dripping with water.

  Crack!

  Hei Pao Feng Zhen Shan crushed the teacup, and the scalding hot tea spilled out. Before it even touched the back of his hand, it turned into a ball of icy mist that slowly slid away: "Pfft, shameless thing that doesn't know its own face!"

  "You don't know how high the sky is and how thick the earth is!" Leng Hu sneered coldly.

  Only Qi Hai's expression remained unchanged.

  Qihai Sheng used the tea lid to push aside the tea leaves, took a small sip, closed his eyes and savored it for a moment before opening them again. He covered the teacup with the lid and put it back on the table: "Young people are always impulsive, thinking they're invincible. Let him taste some bitter fruit first, if he knows his mistake and changes, treatment remains unchanged, but if he still doesn't know how to behave, then let him stay in Taiyan Ninth City forever."

  "Let's do it as Brother Qi said."

  ……

  ……

  After leaving the Qi manor, Su Zhen strolled along the bustling streets with a leisurely pace, while true energy poured into her ears, listening to the movements behind her.

  After listening for a moment, there was no suspicious movement.

  "It seems that the five major families are not crazy, they know I died in Lihuo City and can't escape responsibility. What a pity, I thought I could still warm up tonight." According to the information collected by the Shengwang Party, most of the dead fellow disciples were on the border between Longyuan Province and Yanyun Province, and no one had ever died in Taiyan Nine Cities.

  This shows that the five major families are cautious and afraid of leaving a handle for the Wanxiang Sect to take advantage of, and being killed by Lei Ting.

  It seems Su Zhen doesn't care at all.

  When meeting with the five clan leaders, Su Zhen secretly used his Frost Spirit's gaze to assess their strength and found that the strongest, Qi Hai Sheng, was on the same level as Kang Peng. The other four were at most early or mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators. People of this caliber, to exaggerate a bit, would die no matter how many came. Unless they were like an endless tide of ants, exhausting Su Zhen to death, otherwise they would all be crushed.

  Su Zhen never took the five major families seriously from the start.

  He cares about Zhushan Teaching.

  Zhushan Sect is the largest sect in Yanyun Province, and it is as famous as Wansi Zong, Bai Du Men, and Yinsha Jiao!

  The cultivators of Zhushan Jiao are famous for their 'Sword Riding Technique' and 'Puppetry', such as the mechanical puppet people in Wanxiang Sect's Puppet Peak, which is most common in Zhushan Jiao. Any disciple with a bit of reputation uses better mechanical puppets. Their mechanical puppets are so exquisite that they make one speechless, and their strength is strong enough to be called splitting bodies.

  There is a saying that fighting against the disciples of Zhushan Jiao is equivalent to challenging two or three opponents of the same level at the same time. Because most of the disciples of Zhushan Jiao will have two or three, or even three or four mechanisms puppets of the same level!

  It's actually a situation where several people gang up on someone at the same time, which is considered group violence. That's why some people say that the disciples of Zhushan Jiao are not afraid of fighting in groups.

  The swordsmanship of Zhushan Jiao is also very powerful.

  However, unlike the common sword cultivators, Zhushan Sect's Sword Riding Technique excels in 'quantity'. They use a unique flying sword called 'Qian Zhu Jian' (Thousand Bamboo Swords). Qian Zhu Jian, like other weapons, is divided into ordinary, precious, and spiritual grades. The difference lies in that Qian Zhu Jian is a set of weapons.

  A set of 'Thousand Bamboo Swords' from the worst three swords, all the way up to a thousand swords!

  The festival is coming, with thousands of green bamboo flying swords lined up in a row, attacking the enemy like a meteor shower, just thinking about it makes my scalp numb.

  Of course, Su Zhen had heard that generally, one layer can control five mouths of bamboo sword, two layers can control nine mouths, three layers fifteen mouths, four layers twenty-seven mouths, five layers thirty-six mouths, six layers forty-nine mouths, seven layers seventy-two mouths, eight layers eighty-one mouths, nine layers ninety-nine mouths, ten layers one hundred and eight mouths. It's far from being as terrifying as a thousand mouths, but it's also not to be underestimated.

  Two fists can't contend with four hands, let alone a group of flying swords?

  "The five big families are the apparent overlords, but the real behind-the-scenes mastermind is the Zhushan Sect. I need to think of a way to lure out the disciples of the Zhushan Sect." Su Zhen's mind was quick and her eyes were piercing, after a brief contact with the five big families, she immediately saw through the mysterious black hand behind Tai Yan's nine cities.

  He wants to purge the nine cities of Taiyan, merely eliminating the five major families is not enough. Once the five major families are eliminated, the mastermind behind the scenes will cultivate new ones again.

  Treating the symptoms but not the root cause.

  Su Zhen was newly appointed as the commander of the Holy King's party and urgently needed a battle to establish his prestige. The nine cities of Taiyan must be thoroughly eradicated! Moreover, Su Zhen still had a large batch of stolen goods in his hands, and after capturing the nine cities of Taiyan, he could take the opportunity to dispose of the stolen goods, which would not be bad either.

  Su Zhen thought as she walked and soon had a clear plan.
