The Heavenly Saint Sect is extremely strong in Gongming City, but it has not done things perfectly, like the restaurant inn, the Heavenly Saint Sect has only opened one, and it has not made foreign shops have no way to survive because of their advantage.

As for low-level pills and magic weapons, the Heavenly Saint Sect also took the initiative to give up a lot of market share, and only made a few high-quality and high-level items, and it was precisely because of this that it gave many low-level scattered cultivators a way to live.

Out of the Heavenly Saint Sect, Lin Xiao flew to Qiyun Mountain, now the name of Qingshan County has long been forgotten, Qingshan County has been occupied by Tianyun Prefecture for more than a hundred years, in this hundred years, the original Qingshan County mortals have long since died, and their descendants also call themselves Tianyun Prefecture people, even the monks of the year have died ninety out of nine, and the newborn monks have forgotten the glory of Qingshan County.

Originally, some of the surviving and surrendered forces in Qingshan County had already truly integrated into Tianyun Prefecture, and the strength of Tianyun Prefecture was obvious to all, with their current strength, not to mention a behemoth like Tiansheng Sect, even some of the sects behind the ranking of the nine major sects could destroy them, and if they didn't integrate, it would be a very stupid act.

Qiyun Mountain and Bailing Mountain have key operations, and the spirit veins of the Mountain Gate have been promoted to the extreme of the third-order high-grade, even if there are no treasures, they can be upgraded to the fourth-order level in a few decades, and they have become an important base of the Heavenly Saint Sect, and the spiritual rice, low-level elixir, and spiritual fruits required by the Heavenly Saint Sect are all produced in these spiritual mountains.

Moreover, the Heavenly Saint Sect's Imperial Beast Department is also here, and now it can produce hundreds of dragon horses every year, and the Heavenly Saint Sect's existing more than 3,000 dragon horses are all the credit of the Imperial Beast Department.

In addition, the Imperial Beast Department also began to cultivate the rest of the demon beasts, even the flying demon beasts have more than twenty, and the strongest one is about to break through the third order, seeing that Lin Xiao is extremely moved, he decided to take the Iron Winged Eagle away when the time comes.

On the territory of the original Qingshan County, Lin Xiao also had a very important thing to do was to go to the mortal villages and towns to inspect, among the mortal villages and towns, there were at least six or seven hundred retired disciples of the Heavenly Saint Sect living in these places.

Many of these retired disciples were disabled for the sake of the sect's conquest, and Lin Xiao, the head of the sect, had to make a gesture to show that the sect had not forgotten their existence and remembered their exploits.

These retired disciples are an important means for the Heavenly Saint Sect to manage mortals, especially in the area of land annexation, it is especially important, the Heavenly Saint Sect has been stable for sixty or seventy years, and the descendants of many disciples have formed a local mortal clan, and it is very easy for these people to carry out land annexation because they have immortal cultivators as backers.

And these few people are rich, and they want to make more people poor, so the sect cannot intervene with reasonable and legal means, but if they want to be that kind of inferior gentry, then it will not work.

The Heavenly Saint Sect must control more mortal money and food in order to stimulate mortals to take the initiative to increase the population, in short, all the foundation of mortals lies in the word money and food, which the Heavenly Saint Sect must control no matter what.

At present, these mortal clans have not yet acted very excessively, because it is still an era of vast land and sparsely populated, and the territory controlled by the Heavenly Saint Sect is thousands of miles in radius, similar to Wind and Fire Island, but mortals are even two million behind, far from the point of saturation, according to the estimation of the sect, if you want to reach the point of saturation, the number of mortals must reach at least about eight million.

After the inspection, Lin Xiao returned to the cave, Zhou Zhengzhen was already waiting at the door, the first thing Lin Xiao did when he came back did not discuss with Zhou Zhengzhe, the person in charge of the night owl, he was actually a little unhappy in his heart, and felt that Lin Xiao did not attach importance to the night owl, of course, he did not dare to say these words.

"That's right, let's talk about the work of the night owl over the years, and talk about it in general."

"Yes, Master, after decades of development, the night owl has taken root in many places, and many peripheral members are even serving us in the second and third generations.

Among them, the greatest achievements are the White Jade City and the Jade Capital City, as well as the inside of the Thorn God, let me talk about the general situation first, now there are three hundred and seventy-six core personnel of the Night Owl, and the peripheral personnel under control are almost four thousand.

Among these 4,000 people, 500 people are very loyal to us, and they have already authorized some secrets to them, and established a three-tier management model, that is, the core of the sect, the peripheral core and ordinary peripheral members.

Over the years, we have fought against the secret departments of many forces, and we have won more than we lost, and some organizations have investigated us for more than 20 years, but they have not been able to get to the bottom of us.

The night owl's current annual expenditure is about 1.5 million Xuanjing, because of the support of the sect, we have industries in various places, and we can raise about 1.2 million by ourselves, and the sect really only needs to spend 300,000 Xuanjing every year, and if the head of the sect wants to open up another site, it is for the sect to continue to allocate funds.

Now I'll talk about Yujing City again, our people have infiltrated the Pure Yang Palace and the major families of its vassals, and they have already controlled the middle-level personnel among them, and there are shadows lurking.

On the side of Baiyu City, the shadows of the five major families before were broken, and they had just been renewed over the years, and the Spirit Sword Gate had also supported a few Purple Mansion monks.

The focus is on the stabbing god, our eight-faced fox and the fire have reached the point where the thorn god is in the middle and high-level of the southern continent, five years ago, we allocated a special fund of 500,000 Xuanjing to the eight-faced fox, so that the eight-faced fox can win in the internal competition of the thorn god, he has been the key training of the thorn god, and it is estimated that this year will break through to the Daogang period.

And Agni's cultivation has also reached the twelfth layer of the Purple Mansion for many years, and he has become the third person in the business name of the Thorn God's face, and then we have to support Agni and send him to the upper echelons of the Thorn God.

Among the seven alliances in the south of the Chen Kingdom, there are also five of our spies among them, all of whom are Purple Mansion cultivators, and they can obtain important information, especially the anti-infiltration of the Assassin God against us, and they have relied on their intelligence to thwart the Assassin God's actions over the years."

"The Night Stalker is doing a good job, what is the Assassin doing now"

"After the failure of the assassin's action to defend the country, he did not evacuate the country, more than 20 years ago, the ancestors of the Wei family sat down, the dragons of the Wei family had no leader, and the descendants of the Wei family were unable to rule the country, at this time the defense of the country was also a chaos, and there were neighboring countries intervening, but because the value of the defense was not high, it did not intervene with all its might.

After decades of hard work, the bright-faced people of the Piercing God still occupy one-third of the territory of the Patriotic State, and the seven alliances in the south of the Chen State can maintain the current situation, all thanks to the blood transfusion of the Patriotic State. ”

"What about their Spiritual Monk, do you know what the situation is now?"

"The Lingguang monk of the Assassin God in Nanzhou is codenamed Zero Zero One, and he almost died in the battle with the ancestor of the Wei family, and was seriously injured, and it took twenty years to recover, and now the main activities of the Zero Zero One are in the defense of the country, and the Wei family is chasing and beating hard, and there is a great plan to unify the defense of the country."

"His identity solved?"

"Solved, it's the kind that doesn't find this person, it's the kind that fools, Pure Yang Palace, Cangguo, and Tianyi Country are cold bystanders, and it is estimated that they still have the same plan as us, wanting to let the Thorn God expose more people and horses, so that they can be resolute in one fell swoop, and now it is our Tianyun Prefecture that is facing the Thorn God, so they will naturally not intervene easily."

"Then how many centaurs have been exposed by the Assassin God now, have you counted them?"

"I've counted some of them, and now we know that the people and horses exposed by the Assassin God in Nanzhou include one Lingguang monk, eight Daogang monks, and more than 70 Zifu monks, but only more than 30 people survived in Zifu, and the rest were all killed in the battles over the years, and Daogang also died one."

"If it's just this little bit of people, even our Tianyun Prefecture can't deal with it, there must be a lot of people"

"Yes, according to the news from the eight-faced fox, the thorn god has been defending the country for so many years, and at least three thousand children with spiritual roots have been taken away, no one knows where they went, and the eight-faced fox is not qualified enough, the eight-faced fox predicts that the thorn god should still have a secret base in Nanzhou"

"There must be a secret base, but there must not be any trace at all, 3,000 children, how much Xuanjing will be spent in a year? You have to check their economic aspects, find out the clues, and find a way to poke out the news of this base, and you must not let the Thorn God continue to cultivate new people."

"Yes, Master"

Zhou Zhengzhen replied, they have also investigated in this regard, but there is no progress, and now that Lin Xiao has spoken, they naturally have to mobilize more manpower and material resources to investigate.

"Is there any movement over there in the Eclipse Country, and what is the relationship with the Pure Yang Palace?"

"The Eclipse Country is now Yun Shaoyang in charge, before Yun Shaoyang married the Hou family, it promised a lot of benefits, the Hou family wanted to occupy a spiritual mountain to develop, but the war was not smooth back then, so Biyunmen ceded a lot of benefits to the Hou family as compensation.

Over the years, Yun Shaoyang has given power to the head of Biyun Sect, and he has been obsessed with cultivation after his injuries have healed, and it is said that his cultivation has broken through to the third layer of spiritual light, which is very strong, on the other hand, Lu Muyang of the Pure Yang Palace, who has broken through the spiritual light for more than 40 years, is still the first layer of spiritual light, and the potential comparison between the two can be imagined.

As for the relationship between the two sects, it is a little more mysterious, there is still a war of words on the surface, but secretly there is still a lot of cooperation, especially when the two countries are bordering, and there are still other countries coveting"

"This is natural, Yun Shaoyang has become a qualified principal, and he will not easily lose his interests for the sake of face, Yun Shaoyang is forbearing, once Lu Yan Ancestor does not break through the Divine Void Period, then the end of the Pure Yang Palace will come."

Lin Xiao nodded, Yun Shaoyang is worthy of being a genius, it is very terrifying to endure now, Lu Yan only has a lifespan of about two hundred years, if Lu Yan dies, there will be no new spiritual light cultivators in the Pure Yang Palace, and Lu Muyang alone will not be reliable.

"Head, speaking of Lu Muyang, there is another major event to report, Mu Dezong is missing"

"Missing, didn't he follow Lu Yan to Zhongzhou, how could he be missing?"

"I don't know this, we only know that about twenty years ago, once Lu Yan came back and broke into the Mu family ancestral hall, and the Mu family ancestral hall is the place where the family tree is stored, our spies estimate Lu Yan's life and death in the Mu Dezong, and the Mu family kept it strictly secret afterwards, so we haven't reached a conclusion yet."

"Interesting, really interesting"
