Not long after, Jiang Zhen, Shen Cong, and Jikei all left.

"Arrange a lot of useless people to follow the Hua Yi Association. This time, we will send a lot of people to join their main force, but we must not let any of our elite troops enter, do you understand?" Jiang Zhen ordered his subordinates as he walked.

"Yes sir!" The subordinate nodded.

"Let's try our best to reduce our injuries. That way, when we win in the end, we will be able to obtain the largest amount of territory!" All of this has to be based on the premise of one's own strength! " Jiang Zhen said.

"Yes sir!"

On the other side, Giordino was speaking the same words as his men.

Even if there was some setback in front of them, they still felt that as long as they had enough time, they would definitely be able to take down the enemy. After taking down the enemy, they would then face a situation where they could rule the world.

Everyone knew that, so neither Jiang Zhen nor Jikui planned to spend too much of their strength at this time. When the world was divided up, they would unleash all of their power so that they could rely on their own strength to gain more territories and more benefits.

With these thoughts in mind, there was no way Jiang Zhen and Jikei could have sent their elites to the front lines to work with the Hua Yi Association on Zhou Xiao Yu and Jiang Hong Tu's fight. Although they agreed to send reinforcements, they only sent useless people.

Previously, when he entered Huaxia, he promised to help the Yellow and White Banners bring down the entire martial arts world. Now that the Yellow and White Banners have sent their cannon fodder to join him, in order to fulfill his previous promise, no matter how trashy these people were, he must use them.

"Bastard, these bastards! Zhou Xiaoyu and Jiang Hongtu are still alive and kicking, and they've already started preserving their strength. Do you really think that these two can be taken lightly?!" Shen Cong was so angry that his teeth were itching, but there was nothing he could do. If he wanted to gain a foothold on the mainland, he would need the support of the Yellow and White Banners. He couldn't afford to offend anyone on both sides.

"If only I could have taken down the black flag from earlier!" Shen Cong said with a sigh. If they could win the Black Flag, they would have a crushing advantage over both Zhou Xiaoyu and Jiang Hongtu. At that time, no matter how powerful the Iron-Blood Army was, they wouldn't be able to change the course of the battle.

Xu Taiping and Chu Tian had already stayed in the Duanmu Family for a few days.

The situation in the martial arts world had changed. The name of the Iron Blood Army had spread far and wide, and Huayi's attack had been thwarted. Zhou Xiaoyu and Jiang Hongtu had been assassinated by killers, and all of this seemed to have nothing to do with Xu Taiping.

Those who were in charge of following Xu Taiping could see Xu Taiping, Duanmu Ci, Doctor Wang, and the steward every day. Then they would fight with the landlords in a certain pavilion, at the door, and by the pool.

Xu Taiping had changed into the Duanmu Family's black long robe, and he had an extraordinary temperament. If not for the poker cards in his hand, people would think he was an expert in the Dao.

"Today's battle is over!" Duanmu Ci slapped the last two cards on the table and said, "I'm sorry. Today, I've won again!"

Xu Taiping and the steward looked at each other, then threw the cards away helplessly.

"We lost again." Xu Taiping sighed.

"Yeah, there's nothing we can do about it. We can't beat him no matter what!" the butler said.

"Looking at the big picture, it's not enough!" Duanmu Ci stood up with her hands behind her back and said, "Whenever the two of you are able to stand at my level, you'll understand that I'm not playing cards. What I'm playing is the overall situation."

"I don't understand, I don't understand." Xu Taiping shook his head. He really didn't understand. Sometimes he played better than Duanmu Huanghun, but he just couldn't win.

Perhaps, this was the difference in realm.

"Let's go eat." Duanmu Ci smiled and said, "If you don't understand, then continue to fight. When the time comes, you will naturally understand."

"En!" Xu Taiping nodded, put away his small Maza, and then headed towards the dining area with Duanmu Huanghun and the butler.

"Finished?" Chu Tian asked while helping to set up the dishes.

Just like Xu Taiping, Chu Tian also wore the unique female clothing of the Duanmu family, it looked a little like Han dress. Just like Xu Taiping, Chu Tian also wore the unique female clothes of the Duanmu family, it looked a little like Han dress.

"En!" Xu Taiping nodded, walked over to the taps, turned on the water and washed his hands.

"He lost again?" Chu Tian asked.

"En!" Xu Taiping nodded again.

With regards to Xu Taiping's answer, Chu Tian did not seem surprised at all, because in these few days, aside from the occasional win by Xu Taiping in the card game, basically, after a day, the final result was still Xu Taiping losing.

She was just as confused as Xu Taiping. Why was it that sometimes, when Xu Taiping was a very good card, he just couldn't win?

"How do you feel recently?" Xu Taiping asked.

"I don't feel anything. I just feel a lot more energetic and more energetic. Before, I couldn't even climb halfway up the back of the mountain. Now, I can go back and forth without feeling tired." Chu Tian said.

"It's still effective." Xu Taiping said.

"I think so too, but the Chinese medicine is really hard to drink!" As Chu Tian said this, he couldn't help but shiver a bit. That smell of traditional Chinese medicine, she was truly afraid.

"A kind and bitter medicine." Xu Taiping said with a smile.

Chu Tian shook his head and said, "Wait until I leave this place, I will never drink Chinese medicine again!"

Xu Taiping smiled, but didn't say anything.

After dinner, as usual, Xu Taiping followed Duanmu Huanghun to the training grounds at the back of the mountain.

A few days ago, after Xu Taiping had settled in the Duanmu family, Duanmu Huanghun had also taken a long leave of absence to stay at home. According to the agreement between Xu Taiping and Duanmu Ci, if Xu Taiping were to lose his overall points in card playing, he would have to go to the training grounds at the back mountain to train with Duanmu Huazhe.

Xu Taiping had been doing it for days, and it looked like he was going to do it again.

For Duanmu Huazhe, being able to continuously spar with Xu Taiping was a huge improvement for himself. Duanmu Huanghun had always been at home learning things from his father, and rarely fought with others, and even if he fought, it would be with the Duanmu family as well. Everyone's martial arts were a part of the same system, and in that case, to Duanmu Huazhe, fighting would slowly become meaningless. Xu Taiping, the leader of the Hundred Family, knew everything, and fighting with Duanmu Huazze was like a living encyclopedia. Duanmu Hua enjoyed fighting with Xu Taiping the most every day, and according to Duanmu Hua, whenever he had any doubts, Xu Ping would have to help out with him.

If Xu Taiping lost, he would have to practice martial arts with Duanmu Huanghun. As for winning, Duanmu would tell Xu Taiping about the entire process of his fight with Zhao Tiancheng during the first Landlord Competition.

Xu Taiping was very curious about this, because he really wanted to know what kind of game Duanmu lost.

Time passed bit by bit.

In the Duanmu family, every day progressed at a certain rhythm. Everyone lived and worked in peace, growing their land, growing vegetables, learning, and playing cards.

Everyone had their own things to do, but they were not too busy. When everyone lived together, there were no conflicts between them.

Xu Taiping tried to get a better understanding of the situation. In the end, he found out that the reason the Duanmu Family had no conflicts with them was because they had no secrets.

In these years, it was too difficult to keep a person free, but the people of the Duanmu Family truly did not have any desires. To be more precise, they only hoped that the fruits would grow healthy, and that the winter would not be too cold. They hoped that the weather would be a bit more sunny, that was all.

This was a very rare day for Xu Taiping, when he would really be able to relax.

Although there were still people staring at him, Xu Taiping felt an unprecedented sense of relaxation.

He and Chu Tian had stayed in the same room for many days, but because of some sort of tacit understanding, they had not crossed that line, as if it was not the best situation for both of them.

Xu Taiping slept on the sofa every day, but he was not troubled by cervical spondylosis.

The days passed silently.

Within the martial arts world, the battle between the two great factions had also reached its climax.

The Huayi Association continued to increase their military strength. Although the Yellow and White Banners only served as a flag, their influence in society was enormous. Thus, many people who were wavering chose to stand on their side.

The pressure from Zhou Xiaoyu and Jiang Hongtu became heavier and heavier. Jiang Hongtu had lost a portion of his territory before, but with the help of the Iron Blood Army, Jiang Hongtu's territory was soon taken back.

As the two camps continued fighting, there was no way to determine who would emerge victorious in a short period of time. As for Zhou Xiaoyu, the longer the fight dragged on, the greater the chances of victory. That was because she could clearly feel that whether it was the Hua Yi Society or the Yellow and White Banners, they were slowly losing their patience.

The two flags were worried that they would suffer too much damage, so they stopped increasing their strength. In order for Hua Yi to quickly take over his territory and let the two flags see the benefits, he could only constantly draw out people who could enter the continent.

The Black Dragon Gang stole two Chinatown from the Iron Blood Army and was just about to fight for revenge when the mainland urgently needed reinforcements, so Shen Cong asked the Black Dragon Gang to send their elites into the mainland, which made the Black Dragon Gang very angry. After all, their chances of winning against the Iron Blood Army were not high to begin with, and now that their elites had been transferred away, how could they fight against the Iron Blood Army?

What disgusted the Black Dragon the most was that the Iron-Blood Army seemed to only target them. Apart from robbing their territory, no one else would touch anyone else's!
