The four masters behind Liu Nerong, who had joined the Fish-dragon Gang as servants over the years, were more or less angry. After all, the court paid particular attention to the master's humiliation and the servant's death. In Jianghu, the masters of the Fish-dragon Gang had long been dissatisfied with Lin Hongyuan's sarcastic remarks about Liu Nerong, especially the high-ranking members of the Fish-dragon Gang. Although the people in Jianghu respected the Fish-dragon Gang, they believed that the Fish-dragon Gang did not have a real master. For example, the Dragon Palace in Nanjiang had two masters, the old Palace Master and Ji Liu 'an. Not to mention the Celestial Phenomenon Supreme Master Huang Fangfo on the Great Snow Plateau of Hui Mountain. The Taibai Sword Sect had an amazing sword genius, which was enough to convince people. The Music Saint, one of the Four Sages in Jianghu, was also one of the Four Sages in Jianghu, and the female owner of Jincuo Knife Village could also turn the tide. Although Youyan Villa did not have a top supreme master to deter Jianghu, it had built a good relationship with heroes from all sides because of the re-forging of the sword in the Dragon Rock Sword Furnace. The Fish-dragon Gang, which lived in a remote corner of Jianghu in the northwest, could not be compared with them. As for the Spring Invitation Cottage in Xishu, as long as they imagined the man in white behind Liu Nerong, no one would dare to underestimate them. In the end, the Fish-dragon Gang's weakness was the most fatal. When the leaders of the Jianghu in the Central Plains joined hands to hunt down six evil demons who dared to steal secret manuals from the Great Snow Plateau, in that soul-stirring tide of righteousness, many people did not know whether to laugh or cry. Among them, Dou Changfeng, who was previously one of the top ten talents in Jianghu, left a "famous saying" that spread throughout Jianghu after he had a conflict with the members of the Fish-dragon Gang.
Therefore, when Lin Hongyuan "praised" the tens of thousands of members of the Fish-dragon Gang in front of Liu Nerong, although Liu Nerong looked indifferent, a burly Foreign Official in the prime of his life strode out from behind her. Even though Liu Nerong tried to stop him, he still walked to the table, put one hand on the table, and sneered, "I heard that there is a Sword Tao Supreme Master named Ji Liu 'an in the Dragon Palace. His swordsmanship is outstanding and quite amazing! Even Wang Tongshan, who was killed by our lord, boasted that he was half a master. "
Ji Liu 'an, who had two heavy swords hanging from his waist, narrowed his eyes. "I'm Ji Liu' an, who is half a master."
The burly man stared at Ji Liu 'an and said with a fake smile, "So it's you. Since you're a guest, I,' Stele Hand 'Zhao Shanhong, would like to propose a toast to you!"
He gently pressed the table, the table did not move an inch, but the wine cup in front of Ji Liu 'an, which still had half a cup of green ant in it, shattered with a loud bang.
The shards did not scatter in all directions, but fell within an inch of the original position of the wine cup.
That half cup of Green Ant Wine was still condensed and did not dissipate.
This display of power left a lingering aftertaste.
Lin Hongyuan turned a blind eye to this. He cast a sidelong glance at Liu Nerong with undisguised schadenfreude, as if he was saying that Liu Nerong, the Gang Leader, was really just a decorative vase. She couldn't even control a Consecrator who was supposed to be a direct subordinate.
Liu Nerong was still expressionless in the face of Lin Hongyuan's silent provocation.
When Cheng Baishuang, who looked like an old Confucian scholar, saw this scene, he secretly had a higher opinion of Liu Nerong, who looked like a clay Bodhisattva without a temper.
Ji Liu 'an smiled and said, "Since it's a toast, I can't refuse. I'll drink this cup."
Ji Liu 'an stretched out two fingers and gently knocked on the edge of the table.
The shards instantly gathered in the air and reformed into a brand new wine cup.
Ji Liu 'an gently picked up the wine cup, raised his hand slightly, and drank it in one gulp.
After casually putting down the wine cup, Ji Liu 'an smiled and said, "After drinking the toast, I feel like drinking the forfeit."
Before joining the Fish-dragon Gang and becoming a Consecrator, Zhao Shanhong had been the number one master of the underworld in Ji Zhou for ten years. If it weren't for the mad dog Yuan Tingshan, who was the general of Ji Zhou at that time, who had worked hard to accumulate his family property and more than two hundred brothers who were as skilled as the Liaodong Cavalry, how could Zhao Shanhong, who had been a local tyrant for more than ten years, escape to Beiliang like a stray dog? Although he had been well-behaved in the past year, a leopard couldn't change its spots. Zhao Shanhong was famous in the Fish-dragon Gang for being unruly and difficult to tame. Although he didn't have a high position among more than thirty Consecrators, he became more and more arrogant as he stood on his own in the Fish-dragon Gang with several other powerful figures with similar temperaments. Otherwise, Zhao Shanhong wouldn't have ignored Liu Nerong's obstruction in front of outsiders like the Dragon Palace.
Zhao Shanhong grinned and said, "The toast is just for show. As for the forfeit, it won't be so easy to drink!"
Liu Nerong finally turned her head and said coldly, "Zhao Shanhong!"
Zhao Shanhong completely ignored the nominal leader of the Fish-dragon Gang. He just gently twisted his wrist and stared at Ji Liu 'an.
At this time, the youngest of Liu Nerong's four retinues made a move that was absolutely unexpected to both the Fish-dragon Gang and the Dragon Palace.
Standing behind Zhao Shanhong, he quickly punched the back of Zhao Shanhong's waist.
The huge one-inch punch almost penetrated Zhao Shanhong's waist in an instant.
Although Zhao Shanhong was an extremely vicious person, he was indeed a rare martial arts genius. In his early years, he practiced external martial arts to the point of perfection with an extremely unpopular fist manual. Later, by chance, he obtained half of the lost mental cultivation method of the Longhu Mountain and turned to Taoism to cultivate both internal and external martial arts. Therefore, although Zhao Shanhong was limited by his innate bone structure and his martial arts realm stopped at the second level of the Master of Martial Arts, he could also be regarded as a freak in the second level of the Master of Martial Arts. His combat strength was extremely good. Therefore, when the young consecrator behind him suddenly attacked without warning, Zhao Shanhong instinctively tightened his back. Almost at the same time that the punch hit his back, Zhao Shanhong began to quickly take three small steps forward. But even so, he tried his best to dissipate the majestic force. Zhao Shanhong's burly body still shook a few times. He bent down to pull a chair and sat down. He poured himself a glass of wine, or to be precise, half a glass. When he lowered his head to drink, he first spat out the blood into the glass and then swallowed it together with the wine.
It had to be said that Zhao Shanhong had always been ruthless to others, and he was not any better to himself.
Zhao Shanhong wiped his mouth and turned his head. His eyes were red. He gritted his teeth and said, "In the end, my family is considerate and let me drink a glass of good wine!"
The young consecrator said calmly, "When we go back, I'll treat you to a few more glasses. It's enough."
Surprise flashed in Liu Nerong's eyes. In her impression, this taciturn young consecrator never formed cliques in the Fish-dragon Gang. He was one of the few loners, so his influence was far less than Zhao Shanhong's, who liked to group up. Now there were many leaders in the Fish-dragon Gang. For example, the two old men behind her were her trusted subordinates. However, the so-called trusted subordinates were only relative to the young consecrator or the stele opener Zhao Shanhong, who had been watching coldly before today. Otherwise, the two old men would not stand by and watch when Zhao Shanhong was insatiable. However, generally speaking, in some internal affairs, the two old men could agree with Liu Nerong, the leader of the gang. Zhao Shanhong had three or four consecrators on each of the three internal mountains, and they often arm-wrestled with Liu Nerong. The remaining two groups of people formed their own alliances. There were not many people, but they were quite powerful. One group was privately called the Cold Blade Department, and they had a good relationship with the local general schools in Lingzhou. The other group was ridiculed as the civil official department. Previously, they followed the leader of Lingzhou, Song Yan, blindly. After Song Yan left his post and was promoted to Youzhou, they were now in a heated relationship with the new provincial governor of Lingzhou, Chang Sui.
The Fish-dragon Gang, the Fish-dragon Gang, was really a mix of good and bad people. The name of the gang that Liu Nerong's father gave back then was a prophecy.
However, because the Fish-dragon Gang had learned a lesson from the past, they had cleaned up a large group of real power figures a few years ago. So, Zhao Shanhong and the other ruthless and ruthless people were more or less afraid and did not dare to fall out with Liu Nerong. Although it could be concluded that Liu Nerong definitely did not have that kind of ambiguous relationship with the young lord, it was obvious that the Fish-dragon Gang had nearly 30,000 members. Not to mention the government of Longqing County, even the Lingzhou Provincial Governor's mansion and Mount Qingliang had people specially watching the Fish-dragon Gang. This was the root cause of Zhao Shanhong and the others not having the courage to do whatever they wanted. Once they angered Mount Qingliang, which even the Liyang imperial court could only turn a blind eye to, not to mention the young lord, one of the Four Grandmasters of Wushu Arts, to come personally, they did not need to mobilize any cavalry in Beiliang. As long as the Water Room or the Eagle Room came, they did not need to mobilize all of their forces. They just needed to bring out a hundred elites. It was believed that the Fish-dragon Gang would fall apart in the blink of an eye. When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. Then, they would go back to their own homes. Of course, the premise was that they were not included in the must-kill list of those spies and men of sacrifice.
In the final analysis, just as the Central Plains said, the Fish-dragon Gang lacked a stabilizing force that could suppress all the heroes. In fact, it was not that there were no smart people in the Fish-dragon Gang secretly speculating why Mount Qingliang did not directly find someone to replace Liu Nerong, who had mediocre cultivation and was not tough enough and cold-blooded enough.
Otherwise, that person only needed to reveal his identity as from Mount Qingliang. Even if he was a trash who was even more useless than Liu Nerong, who would dare to not bow their heads and listen to him obediently? Don't talk about tripping people up, they would wag their tails and beg for mercy.
In fact, Liu Nerong did not understand this point.
At first, she thought that that person wanted an easily controlled underground dynasty to appear in Beiliang. However, as the Fish-dragon Gang prospered day by day, that person never took back the crops that he had cultivated.
Therefore, Liu Nerong did not understand that person's thoughts at all. Casting a long line to catch a big fish? But they were about to fight the second battle of Liang Mang. From beginning to end, Mount Qingliang did not show any signs of forcibly conscripting the young men of the Fish-dragon Gang. Could it be that they still hoped that after Beimang broke through Jbeicheng, the Fish-dragon Gang would be able to defend Beiliang Road?
Liu Nerong was a little disheartened.
This Jianghu was very different from the Jianghu she had envisioned when she was young.
