Both the morgue and the Northern Drifting Snow City belonged to the Northern Yan Sects and the distance between them was not too far.
Usually, there would be some friction between the morgue and the Northern Drifting Snow City. However, this was very normal and the friction was not serious. Both sides had been restraining themselves.
It was the same even now. Even if Bai Hantian was angry that the morgue had crossed the line and caused trouble, he would not be provoked by Chu Xiu into fighting to the death with the morgue.
Chu Xiu smiled and said, "City Lord Bai, I'm not trying to sow discord. You want peace but the morgue doesn't.
The Northern Drifting Snow City has been around for thousands of years and it's past the time for crazy expansion. The most important thing is to protect their own foundation and then gradually expand.
However, the morgue had only been established for a few decades and Nie Renlong wanted to lay a solid foundation for the morgue before he died. To be more precise, the morgue needed to expand now.
Believe me, this is not a misunderstanding. If you don't believe me, City Lord Bai, you can go and ask the people at the morgue and see if they're willing to hand over those who broke the rules to you.
If the morgue really doesn't have such intentions, then City Lord Bai can just think that I'm trying to sow discord and kick me out at any time.
However, if what I said is true, then I hope City Lord Bai can make preparations and nip the morgue's ambitions in the bud as soon as possible. At this time, if you and I join forces, the Northern Drifting Snow City will not lose out. "
After saying that, Chu Xiu did not say anything else. He directly left his current residence to Bai Hantian and turned to leave. He had no intention to sow discord.
Behind him, Bai Hantian's expression did not change. Although he would not be so easily provoked by Chu Xiu, he also did not understand the current situation in the Morgue Manor.
Hence, Bai Hantian decided to meet Nie Renlong to find out what he wanted.
However, what Bai Hantian did not know was that if he met Nie Renlong according to Chu Xiu's instructions, the two of them would most likely end up parting on bad terms.
If it were not for Chu Xiu, Bai Hantian would have sent someone of Bai Qinhu's level to negotiate with the Morgue Village instead of going there himself.
But now, with Chu Xiu's words, Bai Hantian couldn't help but want to take the initiative to take a look and see what the Loyalty Manor was up to.
When two Martial Dao Grand Masters discussed these things together, they would either succeed or fail. Both of them were people who cared about their reputation. Once they met, there was no turning back.
Moreover, Chu Xiu knew that the morgue would most likely not be able to come up with an explanation that Bai Hantian wanted. Regardless of who was right or wrong, as long as Nie Renlong decided to take a step back in front of Bai Hantian, his so-called morgue alliance would immediately become unstable.
It was an alliance that had just been established a few days ago. Everyone could only fight battles that went well and only see benefits. Once they encountered a setback, the consequences would be dire.
After Chu Xiu left, Bai Wuji snorted softly and said, "I think that the people from Diabolism are right. The Morgue Village should be suppressed, or else the Nie father and son would not even know their surnames!
Ever since Nie Dongliu became Han Baxian's disciple, he became more and more high-profile. The Morgue Village also began to show a strong aggressiveness.
If we join forces with Pang Hu's Qilian Village, we can really deal a heavy blow to the Morgue Village. "
Bai Wuji's relationship with Nie Dongliu had never been good.
Bai Wuji's ranking on the Longhu Leaderboard was not as high as Nie Dongliu's. However, in the Northern Yan region, Bai Wuji's reputation was not inferior to Nie Dongliu's.
But after Bai Wuji was seriously injured by Shen Bai's sword, he went into closed-door training, while Nie Dongliu became the disciple of the Northern Yan martial artist, Han Baxian. So, the gap between their reputations was huge. Even in the Northern Yan region, most people thought that Bai Wuji was not as good as Nie Dongliu.
Bai Wuji was seriously injured by Shen Bai last time. He was not as arrogant as before, but he still thought that he was not inferior to Nie Dongliu.
He was not as good as Shen Bai and Chu Xiu, who had crippled Shen Bai. How could he not be better than Nie Dongliu, who only knew how to plot in the dark?
Bai Hantian waved his hand and said, "Wuji, sometimes you are too impulsive. There are times when it is necessary to be radical, and times when it is necessary to be cautious. Now is not the time to be radical. I will personally go to the Morgue Village to discuss this matter with Nie Renlong. Nie Renlong is not an idiot, I believe he will give me an explanation. "
Hearing Bai Hantian's words, Bai Wuji and Bai Qinhu did not speak.
Bai Hantian had been in charge of the Northern Floating Snow City for so many years, he naturally had his own plans.
…
Liaodong County, in a large mansion in a small town near the Northern Lands. This place was originally the temporary hiding place of the Qilian Stockade, but it was recently discovered by the Morgue Village. After the Morgue Village killed the remnants of the Qilian Stockade, this place became the Morgue Village's temporary residence.
At this time, in the attic of the mansion, Nie Renlong was sitting by the window, wearing a white fox fur coat. There was a pot of tea on the table, enjoying the snowy scenery outside.
Nie Renlong entered the Jianghu when he was in his teens, experiencing the dangers of the Jianghu, scheming and killing. It took him half his life to build the Morgue Village.
Along the way, there had been people who had betrayed Nie Renlong. Of course, Nie Renlong had also betrayed others. Gratitude and resentment, right and wrong, had long been unclear. That young hero, Nie Renlong, who had sworn to uphold justice and uphold justice in the Righteous Village, had long since died. The only one who was alive now was the scheming village chief of the Righteous Village.
Staring at the falling snowflakes outside the window, Nie Renlong held the teacup in his hand but did not drink. He did not know how long it had been since he was so free.
This time, Nie Renlong only controlled the overall situation of the battle against the Northern Lands Thirty-six Bandits. Some of the details were all handled by Nie Dongliu.
Although Nie Renlong was not old, he was not young either. Therefore, he had to let Nie Dongliu completely control the Morgue Village while he was still alive. He had to have enough prestige in the Jianghu, so that the Morgue Village could really take root in the Northern Yan and continue to exist for thousands of years.
Fortunately, his son was good enough. At least for now, it seemed that Nie Dongliu had done well enough, even beyond his imagination.
At present, the young talents in the Jianghu, whether it was Zhang Chengzhen, Zong Xuan or Fang Qi Shao, all relied on their own talent to reach this stage. Only Chu Xiu could be considered to have risen from the wilderness.
Nie Dongliu did not have such talent, but Nie Renlong did not care. In his opinion, some things were 70% man and 30% God. If he did not fight, even if he had 30% God's will, he would still be frustrated.
Nie Renlong thought that when he was young, he was also a penniless, stupid boy from the wilderness. Now, did he not become the leader of the Morgue Village of the Six Gangs?
Nie Dongliu's starting point was much higher than his. His son's future achievements should also be higher than his.
At this moment, there was a sound of people coming upstairs. Nie Dongliu's expression was a little gloomy. Just as he sat in front of Nie Renlong and was about to say something, Nie Renlong waved his hand and poured a cup of tea for Nie Dongliu. In a deep voice, he said, "Don't panic. Every time something big happens, you have to be calm. The sky has not fallen, so why panic? Drink a cup of tea and speak slowly. Remember, if you are in charge of the Morgue Village in the future, do not show this expression in front of anyone. Hide your joy and anger in your heart and not show it on your face. "
Nie Dongliu nodded and finished his tea. Then he said coldly, "Father, those people really need to be punished. I've already told them not to cross the border and go to the Northern Lands, but they're still doing it in secret. They really deserve to be killed!"
Nie Renlong also frowned and stroked his beard. "It's a bit difficult. Benefits are at the front. Not to mention you, even if it was me, these people might not listen.
The alliance has just been formed, and it was my Morgue Village who invited them to join. These people are a bit arrogant because they are spoiled.
However, this matter cannot be done forcefully. If they are my subordinates, you can kill one or two of them as a warning to others.
But these people are not my subordinates yet. Don't talk about killing them, if you take a hard stance, it will cause people's hearts to waver.
For now, send people to keep an eye on them and find a chance to make some noise to warn them. Don't let them go too far. "
Nie Dongliu nodded.
Just now, when he said these people should be killed, he was actually just saying it out of anger. He also knew that this group of people could not be killed now.
Just as Nie Dongliu was about to say something, a heroic voice suddenly rang out.
"Brother Nie, since you are in Liaodong, why don't you come to my Northern Fluttering Snow City as a guest? Are you looking down on me? "
As the voice fell, a figure wearing a white tiger skin cloak leaped up to the second floor. He was tall and sturdy, with azure blue eyes. It was Bai Hantian.
Seeing Bai Hantian come, Nie Renlong and Nie Dongliu cursed at the same time. They guessed that he was here for this matter.
However, Nie Renlong's expression did not change. He still smiled and said, "Brother Bai, please don't be offended. My Morgue Village has been too busy recently, so I can't find the time. When I have time, I will definitely pay a visit to the Northern Fluttering Snow City."
Bai Hantian's smile disappeared. "Too many things? I know that you are busy invading my territory in the Northern Lands, right? "
Nie Renlong smiled bitterly. "Brother Bai, you misunderstood. These things were caused by some of the forces under the Morgue Village Alliance. I was just talking to Dongliu about this matter. I will find a chance to restrain them."
Seeing that Nie Renlong did not hide anything, Bai Hantian's expression became a little better. He nodded and said, "Since Brother Nie has said so, then I will not pursue this matter any further. Hand over the people in your alliance, so that I can go back and answer to the martial arts forces in the Northern Lands. This matter will be over. "
However, when Nie Renlong heard this, his expression suddenly changed.
