Chapter 100: Entering the Jianghu

heart.Seeing Lu Tongxuan leave, the Daqian Emperor finally looked back at Empress Yuan on the bed, a pang of pain flashing in his eyes.After a long while, Emperor Dagan finally left. As he departed, h...In the city of Fei Long, at night, under curfew it seemed somewhat deserted, but in the dark corners there was still some excitement.

"Everyone!" Qing Shi Daochang lightly coughed, waiting for the surrounding area to quiet down before continuing, "We are all here for the secret cauldron, but the prerequisite for obtaining it is to find He Fei first."

"A few days ago, we could still occasionally find traces of him, but in the last two days he has suddenly disappeared."

"Yeah, that kid is too good at hiding." Qing Shi Dao Chang's words instantly made those around him nod in agreement. "A few days ago, we could still find him from time to time, but these past two days, he suddenly disappeared for no reason."

"Yeah, I noticed that too. I can't find anyone else these past couple of days."

A group of people echoed in succession, their eyes filled with confusion as well.

"So, our top priority now is to find He Fei!" Qing Shi Daochang spoke again. "But before we find He Fei, there's one more issue we need to deal with."

"Master Dao, are there any other questions"

Very satisfied with someone cooperating, Qing Shi Dao Chang gave the other party an approving look, and then his face began to turn serious. "This matter is a matter for the government!"

"The government"

“Yes, the government!” Qing Shi Daochang nodded. “I think you all have noticed that the government of Flying Dragon City has suddenly and for no reason targeted those of us in the Jianghu. This has led to many fellow practitioners being thrown into prison, and even murdered! Our numbers were already small, and now with this batch of arrests, how can we possibly find He Fei!”

As soon as these words were spoken, they resonated with everyone present. Some couldn't help but speak out, criticizing the Feilong City government.

"Yes, what the Daoist said is correct. A few days ago, my senior brother merely acted righteously, but as a result, he was arrested by those damned government officials and thrown into jail. He hasn't been released yet."

"Me too. I thought of my brother's honorable reputation for chivalry. To see someone who wanted to rob the rich to help the poor end up arrested by the authorities!"

"And me, I'm also in there! I just accidentally broke some plates, and they want ten taels of silver to let me out!"

"Yeah, I'm having that too..."

"This little one encountered it too, that damn government official actually tried to harass me, luckily I ran fast, otherwise…"

A woman's voice sounded, Zhang Liyang's face twitched repeatedly, because this was XiaoXiao's voice.

"Damn witch, your mouth is full of lies!"

All those things the people before said, Zhang Liyang could still recognize. But what Xiao Xiao said was complete nonsense.

But Zhang Liyang knew it was nonsense, but the people around him didn't think so. As soon as they heard that someone had been molested by government officials, everyone was indignant and wanted to seek justice from the government.

The government is very powerful, but these martial artists have never taken the government seriously. In their eyes, there are only sects, not government; only sect rules, not laws!

"Therefore, this poor monk suggests splitting the troops into two groups." After the surrounding voices had said nearly all they had to say, Qing Shi Dao Ren continued, “Some people continue to look for He Fei, while others go to the government office to seek justice.”

"What if we ambush them" someone suggested immediately. "Even though they have more people and crossbows, we're not pushovers either. We can take them on together!"

"No." Someone shook their head in disagreement. "They are the vanguard, and their crossbow bolts are beyond our defenses."

"What can we do about it"

"Catch the thief, catch the king first. We just need to take care of the leader."

"It's just a matter of moving him, but he almost always has a group of soldiers with him. It's not easy."

"And it's said he's also the personal eunuch of Princess Huaiqing. If we killed him, would that..."

Eunuchs are not like ordinary people; in a sense, eunuchs represent the royal family. Killing an eunuch, especially a princess's personal attendant, is a provocation to the royal family.

These people may not care about the government or the law, but they still fear the royal family because in their eyes, the royal family is a powerful clan!

"Who said we have to kill him"

"We were just giving him a lesson so he wouldn't get too carried away."

"Hitting an eunuch wouldn't be a problem at all."

As soon as this was said, everyone in the room's eyes lit up. Only Zhang Liyang had a black line on his face, because the person who came up with this idea wasn't someone else, but Xiao Xiao!

"Yeah, we can beat him up. I've never beaten up an eunuch before."

"Me too, I'm also very curious about what's underneath the eunuch's clothing."

"When the time comes, we'll just take his pants off and find out, won't we"

"Haha... Don't say that, I'm really looking forward to it!"

A group of people were laughing heartily there, but Zhang Liyang's face was ashen with fury. His eyes flashed dangerously. If it weren't for the crowd around him and the presence of skilled martial artists, Zhang Liyang would have charged out right now to strip those people naked and drag them to the city gate!

"Endure!" Zhang Liyang clenched his fist tightly, at the same time lowering his head to conceal the ferocity in his eyes.

"Alright, then it's settled." Finally, Qing Shi Daochang decided on a course of action. "We'll split up. One group will deal with that eunuch and get all of us released. The other group will continue searching for He Fei."

"Beep, publishing system mission, enter the world!"

"The host must achieve a reputation value of 500 within the stipulated time!"

"Time one month, current reputation in the martial arts world: 52!"

As the people around him made their decision, Zhang Liyang also heard the system's task notification sound in his ear. This instantly improved Zhang Liyang's mood, which had been clouded with frustration.

"System, is this reputation in the martial arts world a good one or a bad one"

"No matter!"

Seeing the system's answer, Zhang Liyang's eyes lit up instantly, and even his gaze towards the people around him was filled with a trace of greed.

If Zhang Liyang just saw these people as enemies, now Zhang Liyang sees these people as piles of resources.

The more resources he has, the greater his rewards will be, and the stronger he will become!

Especially in the back, from Qing Shi Dao Chang's mouth, Zhang Li Yang learned that over the next few days, some disciples from famous sects and schools would also come. This filled Zhang Li Yang with even more joy.

"Don't be too ostentatious. First, we should focus on improving our cultivation."

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Zhang Liyang listened for a while longer before silently withdrawing. Just before leaving, he glared fiercely at Xiao Xiao's back.

"Hmm"

Seeing Xiao Xiao turn around instantly, Zhang Liyang hurriedly averted his gaze. "Damn demon woman, so alert! You wait for me!"

Thinking fiercely, Zhang Liyang instantly disappeared into the darkness.e him very much. It wasn't because of anything else, but simply because his senior brother was rather pedantic.Besides, Bai Fuhuan's cultivation talent made him almost the apple of his master's eye am...
