Beiyin Great Sage

The five-story dragon boat docked at the dock, and as the boatman with a seventh-level cultivation shouted loudly, a suspension line extended from the bow to the shore.

"Master."

Cai Qi, who has black iron cultivation, stretched out his hand to signal:

"After you!"

"Um."

Xu Chang nodded and walked towards the shore.

Behind him, Xu Xiuzhi and Qian Xiaoyun looked at each other, quietly suppressed the displeasure in their eyes, and followed them towards the dock.

Xu Shang is the son of the Xu family. Unlike Xu Xiuzhi, he is the direct descendant of the second wife.

Although he is not as good as the most outstanding ones of this generation, he is still a rising star of the Xu family, far from being comparable to the marginal Seo Xiuzhi.

he comes.

There are bound to be twists and turns on this trip.

"Pattering..."

The drizzle is hazy.

"It seems that we are here by bad luck today." Xu Chang covered his eyes with his hands, while the servants behind him hurriedly opened their paper umbrellas to protect themselves from the rain.

He shook his sleeves and looked unhappy:

"This kind of weather is the most irritating. Clothes are close-fitting, which is extremely uncomfortable."

"Although there is no severe cold or heat near Xiaolang Island, there are many cloudy and rainy weather." Qian Xiaoyun explained with a smile:

"It often rains here. It's not heavy, but it lasts a long time. Mr. Xu sees that the boatmen here wear many hats and raincoats."

"Why!"

Xu Sang frowned:

"Let's go!"

"Isn't anyone coming to pick you up?"

"Yes." Qian Xiaoyun stretched out his hand and pointed forward:

"We have also opened a shop here. We have already informed you by flying text in advance. The carriage over there should be here to pick us up."

While he was talking, the carriage in the direction he pointed to had already driven over, and he had obviously seen the person coming.

"This kind of car..."

Xu Chang was speechless, with a look of disgust on his face:

"That's all, that's all, hurry into the city and finish your errands here early."

"Mr. Xu is right." Qian Xiaoyun's expression remained unchanged and he waved to the visitor:

"Let's enter the city."

Her expression remained normal, but her heart sank.

The visitor is not good!

Restaurant.

Standing along the street.

This is not a prosperous place, the food is not expensive, but there are many diners. After all, there are few rich people, and the majority are ordinary families.

It’s not even meal time yet.

There was only one person sitting by the window on the second floor.

The window sill is sloping outward to block the drizzle, but occasionally a strong wind blows, and some naughty raindrops will still fall on the person's clothes.

Zhou Jia rubbed a mask, thoughtfully.

The mask was bright red in color and looked like it was woven from some kind of vine. It was slightly rough on the outside, but the inside was extremely smooth against the skin.

This thing is a rare treasure.

Wearing it on the face can cover the breath of the body.

The weird shape gives people a chill from deep inside.

It is also the symbol of the owner of the Blood Vine Tower. The owner of this mask has caused many bloody storms in Stone City.

now.

It fell into Zhou Jia's hands.

Along with it, there are several hidden places that you should explore when you have time. Maybe there may be unexpected surprises inside.

"Da da……"

Footsteps sounded from the stairs.

Zhou Jia flipped his hand and the blood vine mask disappeared.

"Brother Zhou!"

Chen Ying, dressed in red clothes, stepped onto the second floor and gestured with her hands:

"You haven't shown up for a while. I heard that you had an enlightenment and achieved the realm of black iron. It's really gratifying and congratulatory!"

She sighed with emotion, unable to conceal her envy.

once.

The two of them had similar cultivation levels, but now she is still at the ninth level, but the other has achieved black iron, and their status has become completely different.

For a moment, the feeling in my heart was unclear.

"It's just a fluke." Zhou Jia smiled lightly and looked at the other person:

"Miss Chen is full of energy and looks like she will reach the tenth rank soon."

"I'd like to lend you your kind words." Chen Ying's beautiful eyes moved and her gaze fell on the table in front of Zhou Jia, or rather the invitations on the table.

Then he sighed:

"It seems I'm late."

"Ha..." Zhou Jia looked helpless:

"I chose this place just to avoid trouble. I didn't expect that someone would come here anyway. I already have seven invitations here."

"Now I have to add another one." Chen Ying stepped closer and handed over an invitation:

"Miss Mei wants to meet you."

"Thunder Eyebrow?" Zhou Jia took the invitation, put it aside and said:

"Leicheng and Lei Ye, sons of Gang Leader Lei, Qiu Yingchen, son of Deputy Gang Leader Qiu, and even Elder He and the Su family have all sent invitations."

"It seems..."

He smiled lightly:

"The competition for the position of gang leader is fierce."

"Brother Zhou." Chen Ying said in a solemn voice:

"The Tianhu Gang was founded by Gang Leader Lei with a knife. The Gang Leader's surname must be Lei. Prisoner Lei left with the Gang Leader, so the leader will naturally be chosen from the remaining people."

"Lei Cheng is too solid but not enterprising enough. Nowadays, the gang is in chaos and he can't do anything; Lei Ye is too young to convince the public."

"Only Miss Mei, although she is a woman, is a heroine, has a strong personality and is not weak to men, especially like the gang leader, who can inherit the position of gang leader."

"If the position of gang leader is given to someone with a foreign surname, not to mention the dissatisfaction of the elders in the gang, Brother Zhou will be so favored by the gang leader, I'm afraid he won't be able to bear it, right?"

She spoke clearly and eloquently, obviously well prepared.

Today is different from the past.

Zhou Jia achieved black iron, and his status naturally became respected.

The old black iron strongmen in the gang, such as Shan Muhua, Qiu Bowei, Jiuru, Elder Liao, etc., died and disappeared.

When Zhou Jia spoke, the weight was different.

As a former friend of the other party, Chen Ying was invited to be a lobbyist, so she had a certain degree of confidence, at least better than others.

But...

"You should know better." Zhou Jia sighed softly and said:

"The position of the gang leader is not decided by you or me, but by the Pulse Master."

Standing behind the Tianhu Gang is Xiao Langdao. Even Lei Batian must listen to the arrangements of the Pulse Master, and the position of gang leader is no exception.

"certainly."

Chen Ying nodded and said:

"But even the Pulse Master must consider the opinions of the elders in the gang. If most people choose the same person, the Pulse Master will not veto it no matter what."

"After all, what Xiaolangdao wants is not a divided Tianhu Gang."

Zhou Jia was silent.

"Brother Zhou." Chen Ying took a deep breath and said:

"As long as you agree to nominate Miss Mei as the leader of the gang, you will receive a Heavenly King Pill every month from now on and be promoted to an elder."

Heavenly King Pill?

Zhou Jia's eyes moved slightly.

During this time, he deliberately looked through the elixirs needed for the black iron realm in the library.

They are roughly divided into three categories.

one type.

All are refined from heavenly materials and earthly treasures that contain source essence. These treasures are like killing ferocious beasts, which can rapidly increase source power.

And, there is no drug resistance.

As long as there is a constant supply of elixirs, one can continue to improve one's cultivation level.

certainly.

This kind of elixir is extremely rare and has a price but no market.

Category II.

It is made from some substances containing source essence, mixed with ordinary spiritual plants, inner elixirs, and blood essence. It is not weak in efficacy and expensive.

Heavenly King Pill is like this.

One grain.

It can be compared to the hard training of an ordinary black iron master for more than a month.

Category III.

It is an elixir refined from elixirs of sufficient age, inner elixirs containing huge amounts of essence and blood, etc. The efficacy of the medicine depends on the formula.

Some are no worse than the first category.

But most of them are not very effective.

Moreover, taking the same elixir for a long time will cause drug resistance. Fortunately, compared with the previous two categories, this category is easier to obtain.

After thinking for a while, Zhou Jia spoke slowly:

"I'll..."

"Um?"

After a pause, he lowered his head and looked out the window.

In the hazy drizzle, figures appeared on the long street.

The figures were all dressed in powerful clothing, holding swords in their hands. Their soaked long hair clung to their clothes, and an invisible sense of chilling filled the air.

There used to be a lot of pedestrians on the street, but now they have stayed away from them.

"Peng!"

A desk placed against the wall was kicked to pieces.

With the power of destroying the table, the man shook his wet long hair, and looked towards the opposite side with a pair of triangular eyes filled with strong anger:

"Who are you?"

"Liu Zhang!"

In the rain, a young man stood proudly with his bare hands.

Compared to the group of people on the opposite side, there were several people following the young man, but the number was several times smaller than one.

"Iron Fist Liu Zhang?"

Triangular eyes squinting:

"You want my territory?"

"Not bad!" Liu Zhang moved his fists and feet and stepped forward, his voice not rising and falling:

"Han Dutou in the yamen has said that whoever has the bigger fist here will make the decision, as long as the 40% of the yamen pay a lot of filial piety."

"Pooh!"

Triangular eyes opened his mouth and vomited:

"The guy surnamed Han is really nothing. It's a pity that I spent so many Origin Stones on him."

"It's useless to talk more." Liu Zhang said coldly:

"Shen, are you going to retreat by yourself, or are you going to ask Liu to take action? Don't blame me for not warning you. Liu's fists don't recognize people!"

"screw you"

Triangular Eyes roared:

"Brothers, follow me and chop him!"

Amid the roar, Triangle Eyes stepped on the ground, and the accumulated water splashed in all directions. He penetrated through the heavy rain curtain and slashed down on Liu Zhang's head with the light of his sword.

"Go to hell!"

This sword is fierce and fierce. Although it lacks flexibility, it is also full of power.

Seventh grade!

"snort!"

Liu Zhang squinted his eyes and groaned. His body moved forward instead of retreating. A layer of black light covered his whole body. At the same time, he clenched his five fingers into a fist to face the light of the sword.

When the momentum explodes, his cultivation level is also clearly revealed.

Seventh grade!

They are both at the seventh level, but he is obviously stronger.

"Peng!"

Fists and knives collided. Although Liu Zhang was stronger in cultivation, he still suffered the disadvantage of not having a weapon. His body was stunned and he had to take a step back.

At the same time, a group of people behind Triangle Eyes also rushed over.

"kill!"

Along with the cry of killing, various hidden weapons such as powerful crossbows, hidden arrows, flying needles, and iron lotus seeds were launched first, flying all over the sky for a while.

"Puff!"

"ah……"

Screams sounded.

The two groups also fought together.

"Peng!"

Liu Zhang stamped on the ground, his leg muscles trembled, and the ground suddenly sank. His whole body was like a galloping horse that suddenly exerted force and punched out.

He punched out and the rain curtain in front of him shattered.

The triangular eye was sitting on one side, and he was not an easy person. With a flick of his sword, he slashed out from top to bottom, and the rain curtain was divided into two halves like a curtain.

"Uh-huh!"

The sword slashed downwards, but the oncoming fist suddenly retreated.

From a strong horse to a strong collision, he turned into an old tortoise and shrank, with all his strength abrupt and restrained. The next moment, he was like a tiger stretching out and roaring in the forest.

For a moment.

The transformation between hardness and softness happens naturally.

The incoming sword light also cut off everything.

The triangle-eyed man shrank his eyes and secretly screamed.

He didn't have time to change his sword technique. He only roared and the sword's light flashed again. He abandoned his defense and turned into a heavy screen of swords to slash at his opponent.

Liu Zhang opened his eyes, a pair of tiger eyes glowed with brilliance, and his body was filled with fierce energy, and he crashed into the sword curtain.

His body was like a tiger, his arms were like guns, and each fist seemed to be mixed with thunderous sounds, smashing the heavy sword curtain into pieces.

"Peng!"

Amidst the burst of energy, a figure flew out.

"Dang Cang..."

The long knife also fell to the ground.

"puff!"

The figure fell to the ground, vomiting blood. Before he could struggle to get up, he was hit by a fist in the face, and his whole head was shattered on the spot.

The corpse was even lifted high.

"Everyone stop it!"

Liu Zhang was covered in blood and shouted to the sky:

"The man named Shen is dead. Do you still want to accompany him?"

The shouts of killing fell silent.

Everyone is engaged in a knife-edge business, but they will not die for no reason. The strongest person on their side has been killed.

If you continue, there will be no escape.

"roll!"

Liu Zhang did not take the opportunity to act cruelly, and glared in all directions with a pair of tiger eyes:

"Get out of here before I change my decision!"

The others looked at each other in confusion, and as one of them retreated quietly, the people who originally followed Triangle Eyes retreated one after another.

Not long after, they were all gone.

"Brother!"

"Brother Liu is mighty!"

"Ha ha……"

Almost all of the remaining people were injured, but they were all excited. One of them even shouted:

"By occupying this street, our monthly income will be over a thousand Origin Stones. If we follow Brother Liu, we will really be able to enjoy spicy food."

"That's right, that's right!"

A group of people won, but no one noticed that the expression of Brother Liu in their mouths changed back and forth, and it took a long time to suppress the strangeness on his body.

"Walk!"

Liu Zhang waved:

"Let's go have a drink first and celebrate!"

"Why go somewhere else?" One person pointed at the restaurant next to him:

"This one will do!"

"good!"

A group of people were drinking loudly, and everyone in the restaurant was trembling. When they saw them coming in, they had to entertain them attentively.

Second floor.

"snort!"

Chen Ying showed disdain:

"A bunch of bastards."

"You don't care?" Zhou Jia said calmly:

"They occupy the territory that originally belonged to the Tianhu Gang."

"It doesn't matter." Chen Ying snorted coldly:

"When the time comes, it should be ours or ours. Let them look at it for now. Sooner or later the stuff will be vomited out."

"If you're smart, you can work as an errand in the gang in the future."

"That Liu Zhang, although his strength is not very good and the exercises he has learned are ordinary, he is so brave that he can be put to use."

Zhou Jia nodded slowly:

"Help me choose, let me think about it again."

"Brother Zhou." Chen Ying opened her mouth to speak, then thought about it and stopped.

She knew very well that the relationship between the two could only be said to be okay, but it was not close, and pushing it too hard might be self-defeating.

Then he asked:

"invitation?"

"I will go." Zhou Jia nodded:

"Please wait a moment, Miss Mei."

"That's good." Chen Ying's face relaxed, then she said a few more words and left.

When I was going downstairs, I happened to meet Liu Zhang and his group coming up the stairs noisily. When they saw the beautifully dressed Chen Ying, one of them's eyes lit up.

Just as he was about to say a few words of teasing, Liu Zhang's face turned solemn, he stood close to the aisle, and he spoke respectfully:

"Miss Chen."

"Huh?" Chen Ying tilted her head and said:

"you know me?"

"I met two years ago." Liu Zhang said excitedly:

"Unexpectedly, I am truly lucky to see Miss Chen here today."

"Yes." Chen Ying's expression slowed down, she nodded, and she was about to take a step forward, then she paused and said:

"It's hard to be a street gangster. If you have time, go find Lao Wu on Yafang Street. If you are willing, you can follow me in the future."

"yes!"

Liu Zhang's eyes were bright and his whole body was shaking with excitement:

"Thank you, Miss Chen!"

"Um."

Chen Ying nodded with satisfaction, walked downstairs, and said casually:

"In this place, eat when you eat, drink when you drink, and don't provoke other people."

"yes!"

Liu Zhangying subconsciously looked at the only remaining figure on the second floor.

Thanks for reminding me about typos
