In the Sunset Ridge’s border mining area, during a fight between Wangqiu Town’s Qiu He Village and Xishan Village, Xishan Village’s Young Village Head Yang Junshan broke through the dantians of the two cultivators who were at the second level of martial arts realm, shocking every cultivator in the mining area.
With regards to the matter of Yang Junshan crippling their cultivation, the cultivators from the various villages in Mengyu County had varying opinions of him, but his “infamous name” had spread far and wide, at least after that day of fighting, the suspicious people who often wandered around the vicinity of the mines had all disappeared.
“Crack!”
A warm jade cup was ruthlessly thrown onto the ground, splashing into the white jade fragments.
“How dare he! How dare he kill my trusted aides! If I don’t take revenge for this, where would I, Xiong Xiying, be?!”
Inside the Wangqiu Town’s town hall, Xiong Xiying was pacing around the room likrapped beast, roaring.
Beneath him, his clan uncle Bear Manchu River was standing there respectfully, an expression that could not be seen on his face.
“No, we can’t let this go, this Xishan Village is just a new Prominent Class, he ate the courage of a leopard, and actually dares to provoke my Xiong Family!”
The Bear Manchu River reminded him expressionlessly: “This Xishan Village is indeed a new Prominent Class, but don’t forget that they once extracted an Earth Vein from the Wangqiu Town. That iold Mountain Stone mining vein, and it is not something that a Prominent Class who only possesses a late stage martial arts realm can accomplish.
Xiong Xiying became more and more agitated. Ever since her position as a Successor Disciple was taken away, his temper became more and more irascible, and her personality also became more and more impetuous. Originally, the clan members didn’t want him to step into the position of a true disciple, but he insisted on coming.
When he came, his senior uncle, who was originally guarding the Bear Manchu River, could only give up his position and listen to him.
“It’s just a small Yang family, why are you being so cautious? Since you can’t directly find trouble with them, then just continue with your plan and harass the Wasteland Town, and tell the people of Wasteland Town, that the Yang family has offended our Xiong Family, the Xiong Family!” We have to let them be afraid, and let them know who the real boss of this Mengyu County is! ”
The more Xiong Xiying spoke, the more atmosphere the more intense it became, the louder her voice became, and at the end, she even felt as if she was stuttering.
The Bear Manchu River that was standing in front of him still had a calm expression, as if she was already used to Xiong Xiying’s violent expression.
“In fact, the recent attacks on the Wasteland Town have disrupted the villages. The number of conflicts between villages near the two towns is becoming fewer and fewer!”
“Why?”
Xiong Xiying suddenly stopped in her tracks, stared fiercely at Bear Manchu River with her red eyes, and said: “They dare to not take the matters that my Xiong Family has instructed them to heart, and they dare to not listen to the orders of the Town Hall?”
The Bear Manchu River raised his head and looked straight into Xiong Xiying’s eyes, and said: “It’s planting time, all the villages need to hurry up and cultivate their spiritual valley, afraid that they will miss the farming, how can they still have the mood to fight? Furthermore, nowadays, when the Wasteland Town has the upper hand, our village will always get beaten up when fighting with the enemy, and if they don’t beat us up today, it’s already good enough, how would we dare find trouble with them? ”
“What? You can’t beat him?”
Xiong Xiying acted as if she had heard some kind of joke, “Did my Xiong Family’s disciples not mix in with it? The Martial Realm Cultivator’s among those muddleheaded people are only things that are inferior to rogue cultivators.
Bear Manchu River sighed, he knew that his nephew had trained his brains to the point where he couldn’t think properly, so he could only stay aloof and give orders. He did not know the actual situation, and could only explain patiently: “If not for my disciple of Xiong Family helping him out, the conflict between the two villages would have ended long ago!”
This time, Xiong Xiying did not make a sound, but stared at him with her red eyes, waiting for his explanation.
“The human heart! The will of the people is not with us! ”
At that time, the Xishan Village took advantage of the situation and sent out cultivators from other families to help the various villages in the Wasteland Town. The ‘One Jin’ Formation was first created by the Xishan Village, it is very useful in eliminating the giant locust, and the Yang family used this formation to earn a large number of Jade Coins. However, towards the villages in the Wasteland Town, it is usually provided free or at a fair price.
“After the giant locust disaster, Wasteland Town only occupied the ownerless Ling Tian in the wilderness. As for the Ling Tian near other villages, they were all given to the neighboring villages for free.”
“After the disaster, the days of ordinary Spiritual Farmers were not too good. The prices of the various spiritual valley s remained high, and it was the Yang family who gave out a large amount of money and food to the Wasteland Town, restraining the rise of the price of spiritual valley.”
“With all these measures, the Yang family was able to swiftly settle the hearts of the people in the Wasteland Town. Even the position of being the guardian of Yang Tiangang was taken by the past.”
Seeing Xiong Xiying’s scornful and disdainful look, Bear Manchu River sighed in her heart. He knew what Xiong Xiying was thinking, it was nothing more than bullshit.
In reality, he did not really want to tell Xiong Xiying about the world that would benefit the people. All he wanted to do was to let this future successor of his have the least amount of experience, and not rely on the size of a fist to settle everything.
Although Bear Manchu River sighed in his heart, he still continued to speak, “In the two years after the disaster of the giant locust, the Ling Tian that appeared within the jurisdiction of the town were all forcibly seized by the children of the families. For this reason, there were even incidents where the villagers were beaten to death because of the competition!”
The disciples of the clan even took the opportunity to attack from all sides. Taking advantage of the lack of spiritual valley, they unrestrainedly took over the Ling Tian in the hands of the Spiritual Farmers, turning the original owners of the Ling Tian into the tenants of the Xiong Family …. ”
“Alright, that’s enough!” Xiong Xiying rudely interrupted her clan uncle’s narration.
Bear Manchu River paused for a moment, then continued: “Aesult, when the guards gave the order to stir up conflict in the neighboring villages, the villagers in this town were just faking it, but the Wasteland Town was able to unite as one, and now the result is a gang fight.”
“I said no more!”
Xiong Xiying interrupted Bear Manchu River’s words once again, one word aime: “Uncle, what do you mean by this?
Bear Manchu River frowned, and said: “Isn’t this …”
“Alright, you don’t need to say anymore,” Xiong Xiying waved his hand, and said: “I’ve already decided, cousin uncle, go take a look at the Sunset Ridge’s mine, and take charge of everything over there, you don’t need to meddle in Wasteland Town’s matters!”
Bear Manchu River was startled for a moment. He wanted to say something, but he saw the look in Xiong Xiying’s eyes as he stared at him. In the end, he didn’t say anything, turned around, and silently left the Town Hall.
Xiong Xiying silently watched his back, but her gaze immediately darkened. He, Xiong Xiying, was not an idiot, how could she not understand the logic behind Bear Manchu River’s words?
But he knew that after he lost his identity as Heaven-Shaken Sect’s Successor Disciple, there were already voices in the clan questioning his position as the successor. He knew that it was all because of his brothers and the elders behind them, and this uncle was actually one of them.
This was also why he had insisted on coming to the Wangqiu Town as a guard at the beginning. It was to suppress the Bear Manchu River, to weaken his influence within the clan.
“All those who tried to harm me will all die in the future …”
After taking a harvest of Jade Coins s from two Martial Realm Cultivator s, Yang Junshan gave this sum to Lin Chengsi, and had him distribute it to all the villagers who participated in the gang fight today to recuperate their injuries.
These villagers were all Spiritual Farmers with their own cultivation. Even if they had short legs or folded arms, ordinary people would only be able to enjoy it during the day or even half a year. Furthermore, they would be able to do the same as usual in less than half a month.
“Young Manor Lord seems to have overdone it this time!”
Although Lin Chengsi had a good relationship with him, he never put on the airs of a senior when he was conversing with Yang Junshan. “Back then, just injure them and let them leave. Even blackmailing a few of their Jade Coins s was better than breaking two people’s dantian. Furthermore, the reputation of a cripple like the Dantian is not very good. Even if Wangqiu Town were to create trouble this time, I’m afraid others would not necessarily stand on our side. ”
Yang Junshan handed over a cup of tea and smiled: “Senior, you said that with the Yang family and Xiong Family’s conflict, if I let them go this time, they would be grateful to the Yang family, will the grudges from before be written off?”
“About this…” Lin Chengsi had an embarrassed expression.
Yang Junshan smiled slightly and said: “I’m afraid that not only will I not be grateful, I will instead think that the reason I let them go this time is because I’m afraid of the Xiong Family.
Lin Chengsi let out a “heh” as his face became a little hot.
“Therefore, rather than letting them go, it would be better to cripple their cultivation. At the very least, it would weaken their strength!”
Seeing that Lin Chengsi’s face became even more embarrassed, Yang Junshan wanted to change the subject, but seeing that he was holding onteavy blue leather bundle, Yang Junshan laughed: “Senior, are you looking for me to talk about this? “Oh right, what’s the good stuff in this bag?”
“I almost forgot the important matter.” Lin Chengsi slapped his own forehead, and then said mysteriously: “These are several pieces of Spirit Mine Rocks that I found in our vein, what do you think I found? A high-grade spirit material, the Firmament Stone! ”
