Zhao Hai replied, "Right now, it doesn't seem to be beneficial to us. But in fact, there are a lot of benefits. Our Blood Edge Gang might be strong in Distant River City, but in Devil Heart City, I'm afraid that we can't even be ranked."
Liu Zhentian nodded, he didn't deny this point. The Blood-Edge Gang's strength might be ranked among the top in Riverfar City, but in Demon Heart City, the Blood-Edge Gang was nothing to speak of.
Zhao Hai continued, "Looking at the situation in Devil Heart City, it won't be long before the number of people in the outer city increases. Once the number of people increases, then all kinds of forces will enter the outer city. If our Blood Edge Gang chooses a good place to build our headquarters, then what would we do if someone we can't afford to offend takes a fancy to it? Are we going to hand over our headquarters or not? If we hand it over, then our efforts today would be in vain. Moreover, the name of the Blood Edge Gang would also be destroyed. If we don't hand it over, then I'm afraid that our Blood Edge Gang would be removed. "
When Liu Zhentian heard this, he couldn't help but be surprised. Then his expression changed. "You mean to say that if we choose a good location, we won't be targeted?" Liu Zhentian asked in a deep voice.
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "At the very least, we can reduce this possibility to a minimum. Those powerful gangs wouldn't choose a bad place. And those gangs who choose a bad place aren't necessarily stronger than our Blood Edge Gang."
Liu Zhentian pondered for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Right, what you said is reasonable. But I can't make the decision. I'll tell the Gang Leader about this and let him make the decision." Zhao Hai nodded and didn't say anything else.
At this time, the carriage passed through the Fifth City and entered the Fourth City. Upon entering the Fourth City, Zhao Hai discovered that there were a lot more people here. Cultivators could be seen everywhere, and it was clear that there were a lot more people here compared to the Fifth City.
However, they didn't stop. After an hour, they finally arrived at the Third City. Upon entering the city, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. This was because there were very few shops in the city. Aside from some small houses, there weren't any shops. On the contrary, the entire city was filled with huge plazas. Countless cultivators were hawking their wares in the plazas. The entire city was like a market. Countless cultivators were haggling over prices, their voices shaking the heavens.
Liu Zhentian didn't stop. They directly passed through the Third City and entered the Second City. Upon entering the Second City, Zhao Hai couldn't help but stare. He didn't expect the situation to be like this. Unlike the Third City, the Second City was very quiet. There weren't a lot of Cultivators on the streets. However, the clothes of these Cultivators were much better compared to the Cultivators in the previous cities.
Liu Zhentian glanced at the situation and said, "The people living in the second city are all powerful gangs. Of course, there are also some lone wolves. However, these lone wolves have all reached the realm of teleportation. Therefore, the people in the second city live a much better life than the people in the previous cities."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Right, from the way these people dress, I can see that they live a good life."
Liu Zhentian nodded and said, "Of course, people from other cities will also enter the Second City and the First City to buy things. However, they rarely stay here for too long. The difference in strength is obvious. If they offend someone here, then they would be in big trouble." Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Of course, people from other cities would also enter the Second City and the First City to buy things.
Zhao Hai nodded. At this time, Liu Zhentian's carriage stopped in front of a shop. Zhao Hai looked at the shop and saw that it was a small building with five floors. The area it occupied didn't seem very big. However, there was a signboard hanging above the shop with the name 'Sheng He Hall'. It had an extraordinary aura. It was obvious that it came from the hands of an expert. This was because these three words carried an imposing aura. Zhao Hai looked at these three words and felt a pressure. He couldn't help but be surprised.
When Liu Zhentian's carriage stopped in front of the Sheng He Hall, a shop assistant came out from the inside. The shop assistant smiled at Liu Zhentian and said, "So Hall Master Liu came personally. Haha. Good. Hall Master Liu, please lead the convoy to the back. Someone will come and pick you up."
Liu Zhentian cupped his fist and said, "Thank you, Little Brother Lin. If I have time, I'll certainly invite Little Brother Lin for a drink."
The person surnamed Lin smiled faintly and said, "Hall Master Liu is too polite. I've been on duty for the past few days, so I don't have time. If there is an opportunity in the future, then I'll have a drink with Hall Master Liu."
Liu Zhentian smiled and said, "Alright, then it's settled. I'll go and deliver the goods first. Little Brother Lin, please." Then he cupped his fist and led the convoy to the back.
The process of delivering the goods was very smooth. The carriage didn't belong to the Blood Edge Gang. As long as the Blood Edge Gang handed the carriage over to the people from the Sheng He Hall, the Blood Edge Gang would be able to confirm that the carriage hadn't been opened. This time, the Blood Edge Gang earned 10,000 Jade Essences.
10,000 Jade Essences might sound like a lot, but in Zhao Hai's opinion, it wasn't a lot. One must know that the Blood Edge Gang sent 100 Cultivators to carry out this task. Calculating it this way, each Cultivator would only earn 100 Jade Essences. In 15 days, each Cultivator earned 100 Jade Essences. In Zhao Hai's opinion, this was very low.
After handing over the task and receiving the reward, Liu Zhentian led Zhao Hai and the others out of the second city and towards the fifth city. They were going to the fifth city to build a place. This was a big matter for the gang, so they didn't dare to neglect it.
When they arrived at the fifth city, they first found an inn to stay in. In the fifth city, there weren't many people who opened inns. Moreover, the accommodations here were very ordinary. The inn that Zhao Hai and the others found was very ordinary, but it was big enough.
After choosing a place to stay, Liu Zhentian didn't immediately go out. Instead, he took out his communicator and contacted Wang Da.
Wang Da was currently packing his things. When he saw Liu Zhentian calling him, he quickly took out his communicator. After connecting, he immediately said, "How is it, Zhentian? Did something happen?"
Liu Zhentian quickly shook his head and said, "No, nothing happened. The Gang Lord is overthinking. This time, I came to see the Gang Lord because I have something to tell you."
Wang Da was puzzled, "What is it? Speak. "
Liu Zhentian nodded, then he told Wang Da about Zhao Hai's meeting. At the same time, he also told Wang Da that it was Zhao Hai who came up with this idea.
When Wang Da heard Liu Zhentian's words, he couldn't help but frown. After pondering for a moment, he looked at Liu Zhentian and nodded, "Zhao Ling is right. We should choose a place that isn't too eye-catching. Although I've reached the Teleportation Realm, there are too many experts in Demonheart City. There are too many people and forces that we can't afford to offend. If we choose a good place, it will certainly bring us trouble in the future. Let's do it like this, we'll choose a remote place, but the place must be big."
Liu Zhentian immediately nodded when he heard Wang Da. Then Wang Da turned off the communicator. Liu Zhentian turned his head to Zhao Hai and smiled, "Good job, Zhao Hai. The Gang Lord listened to your opinion this time. It seems like the Gang Lord really likes you."
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Then I'll have to thank Brother Liu for his auspicious words." Liu Zhentian chuckled, then he led Zhao Hai and the others out of the inn to choose a place for the Blood Edge Gang.
Demon Heart City was really big, especially the newly built Fifth City. There were actually a lot of Cultivators living in the Fifth City, but because it was too big, it looked particularly empty.
Liu Zhentian and the others walked around the Fifth City for a long time and looked at a lot of places. However, none of them satisfied Liu Zhentian. What surprised Zhao Hai the most was that although there weren't a lot of people living in the Fifth City, there were a lot of good places that were already occupied. These places had boundary markers that indicated that they were already occupied.
After walking around for another hour, the group arrived at the Fifth City. This place was very close to the Fifth City's walls, but it was located in a corner of the city. Moreover, this place didn't have any boundary markers. In other words, this place was completely unoccupied.
Liu Zhentian looked around and nodded with satisfaction. This place was about a hundred mu in size, it was more than enough to build the Blood Edge Gang's headquarters. Liu Zhentian said, "This is the place, it's more than enough for us to use."
Zhao Hai nodded and said, "Alright, then this place is good. We'll stay here. Brother Liu, you go look for the people from the Buyun Sect and book this place first."
Liu Zhentian nodded, then he turned to the people from the Blood Edge Gang and said, "Ten of you come with me. The rest of you stay here with Zhao Hai. If there's anything, listen to Zhao Hai first." Everyone nodded, then Liu Zhentian led the ten people to leave.
After Liu Zhentian left, Ma Long and Liu Cai went to Zhao Hai's side. Ma Long whispered to Zhao Hai, "Junior Brother Zhao, now that we've arrived at Demon Heart City, what do you think we should do?"
Zhao Hai smiled faintly and said, "Don't worry, there are only two places to gather information in Demon Heart City. The first is the mission office. The second is the shops, especially the taverns of the three and four cities. I think there should be a lot of information there. We shouldn't be too anxious right now, otherwise we'll be exposed. Let's first establish ourselves in the Blood Edge Gang."
Ma Long and Liu Cai nodded. Then Zhao Hai said, "Don't think too much about it right now. You two immediately arrange people to guard this place. Don't let anyone find anything suspicious." The two nodded and then immediately went to arrange people to guard this place.
The people from the Blood Edge Gang were very overbearing in the past. However, after the previous incident, their overbearing aura had been restrained. It wasn't difficult to command them.
