Chapter 4 What a Courage

"Wind Breaking Sword Technique!"

After closing the trading terminal, Zhao Yi walked out silently, standing quietly in the courtyard with a sword in his right hand. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info Suddenly, Zhao Yi suddenly opened his originally closed eyes, and there was a hint of fierceness in the corners of his eyes. The swift and fierce sword technique suddenly came, and the heavy sword shadows echoed in the courtyard, and pieces of leaves lingered on the tip of the sword and danced.

One move and one style flowed smoothly, without a hint of pause, as if it had been practiced countless times. With the ninefold skill of Chaoyang Gong at this time, Zhao Yi felt as if there was infinite power in his body at this moment, pouring out along the end of the sword. The sword momentum became more and more fierce as Zhao Yi slowly unfolded, and it didn't take long for the hall to be full of petals and fallen leaves.

Putting away his sword and standing, the corners of Zhao Yi's mouth outlined a smile, and a trace of excitement that could not be concealed lingered in his heart. Even the two strongest offerings in Dasheng City now are just the realm of the Nine Folds of the Day After Tomorrow. In addition to his lack of experience against the enemy, Zhao Yi believes that he may not lose in a one-on-one situation.

After all, all the exercises I have obtained now are yellow-level exercises, which are all high-grade things, and even in the entire Dasheng City, there are only two books. Zhao Yi didn't believe that an external offering could be more material than the entire Dasheng City.

This sudden power made Zhao Yi sweep away his previous apprehension and uneasiness. Putting away his sword and standing, Zhao Yi slowly climbed the tall building of the City Lord's Mansion, which was also the highest place in Dasheng City, enough to overlook the entire Dasheng City.

Standing in the City Lord's Mansion overlooking Dasheng City, the path in the city was soaked by the heavy rain that had just passed, and the ground was somewhat muddy. But at this moment, Zhao Yi didn't care at all, he just smiled and looked into the distance, feeling the handsome mountains and rivers of this world with his heart. From today onwards, this is his place!

Looking at the faintly visible mountains outside Dasheng City, the clouds and mist between the mountains, and the verdant woods, it is really a rare pleasant beauty. In today's noisy society, there are few opportunities to experience this. After relaxing, Zhao Yi was in the mood to stop and feel these!

"Young City Lord, it's not good!"

The sudden shouting interrupted Zhao Yi's good mood just now. Looking at Zhao Yan, who had just left and came in a hurry, Zhao Yi floated down directly from the tall building. Although he doesn't know much light skills now, he still understands some basic techniques of longitudination!

Looking at Zhao Yi, who suddenly jumped down from a tall building, Zhao Yan's face suddenly turned pale with fright. As the personal team left by the old city lord, he still doesn't know how many catties and taels Zhao Yi has. Even the acquired triple cultivation doesn't know how to do light work, and jumping from such a high place still keeps legs. Even if we are forced to be ruthless, we will not jump off the building directly!

"Young City Lord, no!" Before Zhao Yan could finish shouting, Zhao Yi had already landed next to him lightly. Looking at that relaxed look, it seems that nothing has happened, when did the young city lord's kung fu be so good?

"What's wrong, why is the Grand Sheng City Commander so flustered?"

"Young City Lord!" Hearing Zhao Yi's question, Zhao Yan didn't care about the surprise just now, and hurriedly explained, "Qiqi Young City Lord, just now the second lady raised a sum of silver from the treasury, and the Fang family and the two worshippers then raised a large amount of silver!"

"Isn't it just a little money, and so much fuss?"

"Young City Lord, this is not a little bit of money. In the past, they used to take it once a month, but this time they actually took away all the food and clothing needed for a year in advance, obviously trying to make my Dasheng City unable to turn!"

"Especially the Fang family, when the old city lord was here, although they had promised that if they encountered difficulties, they could bring a sum of silver from the treasury every year, but they never spoke. This time, they suddenly appeared, and they directly wanted to withdraw all the money that should have been given to them in previous years. The treasury and the account office did not obey, and they actually beat the account man!"

"What?" Hearing this, Zhao Yi's brows furrowed tightly, and his face suddenly turned cold. The second lady and the two major worshippers are still a trivial matter to withdraw for a year, and even if Dasheng City is poor, it is not bad. But the Fang family's move really hit the nail on the head.

The Fang family, as one of the big clans in Dasheng City, still has to withdraw money from the treasury, although this is set by the old city lord nostalgically. But the Fang family is also more knowledgeable, and they have never asked for it over the years. Their privileges in Dasheng City alone are enough for them to eat and drink without worry, and they can't afford to ask the City Lord's Mansion for money, which makes their relationship weak.

And this time, the Fang family directly asked for the previous years of expenditure. You must know that Dasheng City has been in Dasheng City for more than ten years, and the accumulation of these ten years is not a small amount, and it is clear that it wants to drag down the finances of Dasheng City.

Thinking of this, Zhao Yi's face inevitably turned a lot colder, since their family was developed, they took care of the other family, which made the Fang family develop from a small family in decline to today. didn't expect them to collude with outsiders in the end, this time not only tore his face with him, but also stabbed him directly!

"Young City Lord, in this way, let alone the operation of my Dasheng City, I'm afraid that I won't even be able to make up the offerings on the side of the Lieyun Sect at that time, so I can't find the big clans in the city anymore!"

"Lie Yun Sect?" Hearing this name, Zhao Yi couldn't help frowning. The Lieyun Sect is located in the Beiyuan Mountain, and the three surrounding counties are under its direct jurisdiction. I heard that there are nearly 1,000 inner disciples of the Lieyun Sect, tens of thousands of outer disciples, plus miscellaneous disciples, etc., there are tens of thousands of people!

It is even rumored that the Lieyun Sect has three masters of the acquired perfection, and the strongest of the surrounding forces is only about ten times the day after tomorrow. Coupled with the fact that there are many disciples of the Lieyun Sect and countless masters, in this world where the strong are supreme, these surrounding forces are naturally obedient and obedient. For fear of upsetting the Lieyun Sect, he might be in danger of destroying the sect one day.

Counting Dasheng City, it can also be regarded as the sphere of influence of the Burning Cloud Sect, not only that, but the surrounding six or seven forces, large and small, are all under the protection of the Burning Cloud Sect. Like Dasheng City, there is about 200,000 taels of silver in various incomes in a year, and almost half of them have to be handed over to the Lieyun Sect. In fact, it is equivalent to paying protection fees and asking for peace of mind.

Not only Dasheng City, but also the other forces of the Tuo and Lie Yun Sect paid about the same amount of money every year. Moreover, they not only have to pay more than half of their income to the Lieyun Sect every year, but when the Lieyun Sect has any instructions, they, who are junior brothers, must also be able to fight wherever they want!

Every year you can get so many resources without doing anything, and the Burning Cloud Sect will only get stronger and stronger. And unless there is any big opportunity for the surrounding forces, they will not be able to catch up. It is no wonder that the Lieyun Sect has been able to firmly control this place for many years, and this system is also indispensable. Because of this, the Lieyun Sect took these things more seriously. There is no shortage of annual offerings to the Lieyun Sect, but you can't afford not to pay it!

If you can't pay the due offerings every year, then the Burning Cloud Sect won't have any friendship with you. If you have a problem, you can borrow money, if you borrow money, you will be profitable, and Dasheng City will not be able to repay it for a year. When the time comes, it won't be on it, hum, the Lieyun Sect doesn't know what it means to be polite!

"The Fang family is really bold!" said fiercely, and Zhao Yi's serious coldness disappeared in a flash. I don't know if it's because I just remembered all kinds of things in the Lieyun Sect, or if I really started to hate the Fang family a little.

"I just rejected them before, and they came to this trick, this is to give me a bad fight. I Dasheng City treats them well, I didn't expect them to change their doors so quickly, hum!"

"It's not good, it's not good!" Just as he was talking, a person suddenly rushed in from outside and shouted at Zhao Yi, "Young City Lord, it's not a good thing." The Fang family sent people to the treasury to pay money, and in the end, not only did they beat the account room, but they also knocked down the guards guarding the treasury, they, they directly robbed the treasury!"

"What? It's just presumptuous, who gives them the courage to drink as long as they want!" His face suddenly changed greatly, and Zhao Yi said coldly to Zhao Yan on the side, "Zhao Yan, you go and gather people immediately." Also, bring that sword guard with you, I want to see what the Fang family wants to do?"

"What, even the sword guard should be brought? Young City Lord? This ......"

"What nonsense, the Fang family is already like this, is it possible to invite them to dinner? Let's go, follow me to have a look, I want to see whose power the Fang family is fighting for?"

"This ..... Yes!"
