"Aren't we overdoing it by mobilizing so many people just to deal with a third-tier renowned clan?" Du Tongfei, the leader of the Southern Mercenary Alliance, asked.
Du Tongfei was Zhao Jing's old friend. The two had been working together when they were still in the country. They had done a lot of dirty deeds together.
Zhao Jing might be crazy, but he had thought it through before making the decision.
Either way, Fanxue Mountain was still a renowned clan. Attacking them for no reason would only draw the attention of the Enforcement Union and the public.
Since they were going to suppress and attack, casualties were inevitable. If they wanted to firmly grasp the right to speak in this matter, then they had to act quickly.
He had to eliminate them as soon as possible and establish a connection with the higher-ups. He would then control the cowards and convince them to lie. It did not matter if Fanxue Mountain still had someone powerful supporting them. The matter was settled, and the item was in Zhao Jing's hands.
Therefore, the main reason he had to eliminate Fanxue Mountain was to be quick.
He could not afford to give the authorities of the Enforcement Union any time to react, nor could he afford to give Fanxue Mountain's allied clans any chance to send reinforcements. He had to eliminate them all at once. If he could not get his hands on the Earth Fire Pistil, he could just run away and spend some money to cover up the matter. Who would still remember the Fanxue Mountain that he had single-handedly destroyed?
He could not help but wonder where Fanxue Mountain got the guts to challenge him for the treasure. Did they really think they could act recklessly just because they had earned a little fame in their country? Fanxue Mountain was only a stray dog in a chaotic world compared to the real factions. How could they possibly compare to the real dragons and tigers?
He could eliminate them as he pleased!
"Don't waste too much time. Fanxue Mountain has accumulated some resources in Feiniao City over the years. We have to be quick," Lin Kang said.
"Leaders, can you let me talk to Fanxue Mountain? I believe the people of Fanxue Mountain are in a panic right now. After all, they have suddenly become the target of public criticism. They must be regretting offending someone they shouldn't have and taking the treasure that doesn't belong to them. Allow me to discuss it with them. Perhaps we can settle the matter peacefully," Li Dong of the Dali Clan said carefully with a bow.
They were a bunch of authorities with reputable reputations in the south. Li Dong could not understand what was wrong with Fanxue Mountain. How did they end up in such a huge mess?
"You still need to negotiate with them? Do you think a lion will negotiate with a puppy?" At this moment, Nanrong Xu walked over and found Li Dong's words laughable.
"Puppy? You're overestimating Fanxue Mountain. It's just a lowly worm that thinks it has everything, even though it's rolling in the dirty soil! "Nanrong Ni said disdainfully.
"You go. I need to know their current attitude. Haha, I said before that I will give them some time to think about how to beg for my forgiveness." Zhao Jing looked at the various experts gathering one after another, and the smile on his face seemed to be calling out to him.
In the end, he, Zhao Jing, was still Zhao Jing. If he wanted to take care of an aristocratic family, it would only take a single sentence.
It was a pity that Zhao Jing had long been tired of the days when he could call the wind and summon the rain within the country. Now that he was fighting with those even more ferocious and powerful forces on the international stage, it could instead arouse some of his enthusiasm.
That being said, Zhao Jing was quite enthusiastic, too.
After all, it had been quite some time since he had last been in the country. Some of the younger generation somehow thought they were unbeatable, and dared to offend anyone. It was a good opportunity to let the younger generation know who was the real king of the country!
Li Dong immediately went to Fanxue Mountain as a 'negotiator' after receiving permission.
Lin Kang was not pleased with the arrangement. He said with a dark face, "Zhao Jing, I'm not asking for much of what you want. If you didn't promise me to recruit Fanxue Mountain, I wouldn't have been under so much pressure for you. A few leaders of Feiniao City have already warned me. I'll have to take full responsibility for my stubbornness."
"Oh Lin Kang, do you think I, Zhao Jing, am the kind of person who would give up after someone took something from me?" Zhao Jing asked with a smile.
"What do you mean? Didn't you already ask the kid from the Dali Clan to negotiate with them?" Lin Kang said.
"It's one thing to negotiate with them. We should get the Earth Fire Pistil as soon as possible, so they won't have to risk their lives. If they are scared, they will hand over the treasure. We can continue to make our move after that. Doesn't that mean we won't have to worry about anything? Don't worry, I'm going to destroy Fanxue Mountain if I say so. I, Zhao Jing, am a man of my word! "Zhao Jing declared confidently.
"HAHAHA, so that's how it is. That's a problem, too. We can let them know their current situation. Hehe, a new faction is still a new faction. They are still clueless about the current situation. If it was a few years ago, they might still be able to develop under the protection of the association and the government, but things are different now. If they aren't strong enough, they can only be obedient dogs," Lin Kang burst out laughing.
"You're right about that. There's only one rule for the renowned clans and clans: they can either be obedient dogs, or they will be destroyed!" Zhao Jing was one of the leaders of the Zhao Clan. He was well aware of the times they were in.
"I'm not interested in anything else. I just want Fanxue Mountain to be destroyed," Nanrong Ni said with a smile.
"By the way, isn't Sister Nanrong Ni's birthday coming up soon?" Zhao Jing squinted.
"I didn't expect Brother Zhao Jing to remember something so insignificant," Nanrong Ni subconsciously lowered her head. She sounded a little surprised.
"It's not insignificant to me. I'm aware of the conflict between you and Mu Ningxue, so I'll treat her miserable life as a little gift for Sister Nanrong Ni this year," Zhao Jing's smile widened confidently.
"The truth is, we only had some misunderstandings, but she's just too narrow-minded. She has been jealous of me for many years, and kept saying she was going to cripple my cultivation. I had no choice but to protect myself," Nanrong Ni let out a sigh and grumbled.
"That Mu Ningxue is too vicious," Zhao Jing said.
Nanrong Ni had a helpless look once again. She lowered her gaze, as if she could not bear the thought of it …
Zhao Jing's lips curled upward when he saw Nanrong Ni's expression. He did not speak, but simply stared at her.
…
…
Fanxue Villa, Li Dong quickly made his way to the main hall at the front of Fanxue Mountain after passing through a bamboo grove.
Li Dong immediately saw Mofan in the main hall. He was sitting in the seat of the City Lord. Beside him was Mu Ningxue, who was wearing a glamorous robe, and on the other side was a quiet, gentle woman with a unique temperament.
"Oh my, you still have the mood to sit here!?" Li Dong ran into the hall. He almost burst into tears because of Fanxue Mountain's situation.
"Fence-Sitter, why are you here?" Mofan looked at Li Dong in surprise.
Li Dong's face darkened.
Can you stop calling me that!?
