Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, a few heads of the Jianghu clan, who originally had some resentment in their hearts, immediately felt extreme reverence towards Ye Qing, this very young 'Boss Jiang Nan'.

There were even some people who were still sitting in the lobby. Their minds were already planning on how to better complete Ye Qing's instructions once they got back so that they could surpass everyone else and become one of the top five people.

Faintly, everyone in the hall felt a strong sense of competition.

To Ye Qing, these were only the heads of the mortal world. The wealth and power they possessed were all worthless in his eyes.

The only thing that was useful to him was the huge manpower in the hands of these Jianghu heads.

As long as he used the huge manpower each of these heads of the Jianghu and searched everywhere, he would be able to find some heavenly and earthly treasures that were as valuable as the Yin Crystals in this huge place of the three prefectures.

"My words are done. If you have nothing else, you can go back." Ye Qing weighed the teapot on the table in his hand as he spoke, pouring the remaining tea out and drinking it.

Just now, in order to keep everyone in suspense, he had poured a third of his elemental energy into the teapot.

Now that he had achieved his goal, he could not waste the remaining tea water. He had to absorb the remaining Yuan Power that had yet to dissipate.

The group of Jianghu heads sitting in the lobby opened their eyes wide and watched Ye Qing drink cup after cup. Although they were extremely envious in their hearts, they didn't dare to stop him and could only endure the desire in their hearts as they stood up and said their goodbyes.

After drinking the tea, Ye Qing also slowly stood up. He prepared to rush back to the prefecture city overnight to seal off the Green Cloud Mountain's grand formation and have Grandmaster Jiang lead the way to the Xiang Province.

However, before he set off, he went to find Fan Yan Rou.

"Yan Rou, do you have the answer to the question I gave you that day at the Manor's Forest Pavilion?" Ye Qing walked into the room and looked at Fan Yan Rou who was sitting beside the bed.

"Yes." Fan Yan Rou nodded. "Husband, I've been thinking a lot these past few days."

"Ever since I was young, I grew up by my grandfather's side. Regardless of whether it was the basic stance, fist technique, footwork, or inner force cultivation, my grandfather had slowly and personally taught me these … "If I didn't have my grandfather, if I didn't have the Fan family, then I wouldn't be here right now."

"So, very early on, I promised my grandfather that I would become a general like my grandfather when he was young, a general who could stir up trouble in the army, and allow the Fan family to prosper in the future after my grandfather is dead and my father is old."

"Whether it's cultivating martial arts or listening to my grandfather's engagement to stay by your side, I'm doing it for the clan, for the Fan family. "So, husband, I really can't let go of the clan's interests. I really can't forget the worldly affairs …"

As she spoke, tears could be seen flowing out of Fan Yannan's eyes.

The Fan family was currently under the rule of the king, so it was naturally the most powerful family in the whole of Fujian Province, even in the whole of Jiangnan.

However, aside from Elder Fan, the eldest son of the Fan family, Fan Yanyun, was the Censor of Minzhou, and the second son of Old Fan, Fan Yiguo, was a centurion of the former Southern Army.

Although they all had some accomplishments, they were far from being able to compare with old man Fan, a legitimate duke of the second rank. They had no way of bearing the burden of the Fan family after the death of old man Fan.

The Tang Dynasty was a martial arts empire, so civil officials were not as good as military officials. In order to maintain the Fan family's status in the Tang Kingdom, one had to have at least a general to become a third rank general!
