Zhu Minglang collected a large sack of spiritual resources and happily returned to the Ancestral Dragon City State.
When he arrived at the Nan Family Estate and saw the corpse displayed outside, he thought his identity had been exposed at first, but when he understood, he almost laughed out loud.
The Great Zhou Clan lost their cultivation fruits and immediately went to the Nan Family Sacred Forest to make up for their losses.
However, the Nan Clan's Sacred Forest was within the boundaries of the Ancestral Dragon City State. They were naturally wary of the Zhu Sect and the Distant Mountain Sword Sect. First of all, it was impossible for their crossbow army to approach the Ancestral Dragon City State. Secondly, the Great Zhou Clan's experts could not brazenly snatch it. Therefore, they could only send Elder Chen, who had connections with other miscellaneous sects, to forcefully seize it.
In their opinion, even if it was just the sects in charge of patrolling the mountain range and Elder Chen, they could still crush the so-called Nan Family. In the end, they suffered a double loss and were even hung out by Nan Lingsha. It was a great humiliation!
Even now, no one dared to claim Elder Chen's corpse. Zhu Minglang felt that it would spoil the mood by hanging it up, so he had someone wrap it up and personally visited Zhou Xian.
… …
"Great Young Master Zhu, what brings you here?" Zhou Xian's face was filled with a polite smile. When he was talking to Zhu Minglang, he did not treat others with the disdain he usually showed.
"I have some connections with the Nan Family. When I came back from a trip, something unpleasant happened. I thought that your Great Zhou Clan has always been a famous clan and would not do such a thing. I was afraid that outsiders would misunderstand Young Master Zhou Xian's subordinates, so I quickly took Elder Chen's corpse and sent it to you," said Zhu Minglang. "How could such a thing happen?
How could this be? How could this be? How could this be? How could this be? How could this be? This Chen Hui used to collude with other sects in our Great Zhou Clan and had evil intentions. Who would have thought that he would ignore the rules and run to the Nan Family to commit crimes? Good, good, good. I, Zhou Xian, would not hesitate to kill such a person! "Zhou Xian put on a righteous appearance.
Zhou Xian would never admit to such a thing.
"They destroyed the Nan family's residence," Zhu Minglang said.
"I understand young master Zhu's meaning. No matter what, it's our Great Zhou Clan's fault for not being strict enough and letting these scum loose. I, Zhou Xian, will compensate for the Nan Family's loss this time. As for the Rat Sect and the other sects, they have nothing to do with our Great Zhou Clan. Young master Zhu, please don't take it to heart." Zhou Xian politely said.
"How could that be? I trust everyone in the Great Zhou Clan, especially you, Zhu Minglang. Your reputation is so good that it makes people envious. Unlike me, Zhu Minglang, who is notorious and hated by everyone." Zhu Minglang smiled hypocritically.
After receiving a huge sum of compensation, Zhu Minglang left Zhou Xian's residence in satisfaction.
Of course, if Zhou Xian knew that the person who stole his cultivation fruit was this shameless Zhu Minglang, he would probably die from anger!
As soon as Zhu Minglang left, Zhou Xian's face turned gloomy.
He glanced at Elder Xiao beside him, but Elder Xiao said, "I didn't expect the Nan Clan's Sacred Woods to have such a strong guardian. We underestimated them. Eldest Young Master, we've suffered great losses this time. What are your plans after this?"
"Hmph, Zhu Minglang, that little trash, dared to come to my place and extort me!" Zhou Xian was very angry.
Although the compensation was a small sum compared to the cultivation fruit, Zhou Xian was tight on money. If he couldn't find resources soon, the twenty thousand crossbow army would have to eat dirt and disband!
"Who was that person who just came?" A person with his face wrapped in gauze walked out and spoke in a muffled voice. His face was probably swollen.
"Zhu Minglang, the only young master of the Zhu Sect." Zhou Xian said.
"I saw his back. Why does he look a little like that Flying Sword Bandit?" the youth with gauze said.
"Uh … Esteemed Ming Ji, everyone you've seen recently is somewhat similar to that Flying Sword Bandit. He's already killed seven people by mistake. It's best that you don't provoke this Zhu Clan's young master. Not only does he have the Zhu Clan behind him, the Distant Mountain Sword Sect is also his biggest backer." Elder Xiao hurriedly said.
"He looks the most like him!" the youth with gauze said angrily.
"Master, he's the least likely. He's just a little dragon master now. He's just a little famous among the disciples. Although he used to be a swordmaster, he cultivated the Battle Sword School. If his swordsmanship reached the Flying Sword Bandit's level, wouldn't he be invincible? Zhu Minglang is just a small character. Master Ming Ji, you don't have to take it to heart. "Zhou Xian said.
Zhou Xian knew a little about Zhu Minglang.
"Hmph, you good-for-nothings. Find that Flying Sword Bandit as soon as possible. I'll skin him alive, pull out his tendons, and stomp on his eyeballs!" Ming Ji said angrily.
"That Flying Sword Bandit can be found slowly. After all, with his cultivation and strength, it's impossible for him to be quiet. Instead, we haven't obtained any Spiritual Talent yet. We need Master Ming Ji to point us in the right direction." Zhou Xian said.
Zhou Xian hated the Flying Sword Bandit even more than Ming Ji. Zhou Xian felt a great sense of humiliation when he thought of the words "I can't thank you enough for your kindness." His face turned numb and hot!
However, Zhou Xian had so many people under him. Even if some of them died in the Nan Sacred Woods, it wouldn't affect his overall strength too much. The other major factions were crazily fighting for the Spiritual Talent. They couldn't just sit around and do nothing. They had to act!
"There's an Icebound Ancient City on the mountain range. There must be many treasures inside." Ming Ji said.
"But didn't a group of powerful people appear on the mountain range? With our current strength and military strength, it'll be difficult to take them down." Zhou Xian said.
"Moreover, the royal family has already given the order for the rulers to join forces and destroy the mountain range city-state. The treasures there have basically fallen into the hands of the rulers and the allied forces. It'll be difficult for us to get a share." Elder Xiao said.
"Hmph, they don't even know what the mountain range city-state has. If they rashly go up, it's tantamount to suicide. Apply to the royal family and join their army. When the time comes, listen to my orders. I guarantee you'll be able to make a great contribution. After it's done, ask for fifty percent of the treasures. The rest will be divided among those idiots! "Ming Ji said.
"But they won't agree." Zhou Xian said.
"Don't worry, they'll agree. As long as they dare to encircle the mountain range city-state …"
"Esteemed Master, can you give us some pointers first?" Zhou Xian asked softly.
"The mountain range city-state was created by a traitor of our Ming Shen clan. He has mastered the Giant General Technique. Those so-called Giant Mountain Generals aren't something your lower realm's Hercules can compare to. Even giant dragons are like ordinary beasts in front of them. What's more, they rely on the mountain range. Their strength is multiplied. No matter how capable this little ruler of Li Chuan is, it's impossible for him to take down the traitor of our Ming Shen clan."
