At the end of the dinner that day, Yuan Qingmei and Zhang Rang stopped by.

On the way, Yuan Qingmei suddenly said to Zhang Rang: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang." ”

Zhang Rang smiled and didn't say anything.

Yuan Qingmei continued: "Mr. Zhang, I know that you are actually at the banquet today, and you don't need to pay attention to my eldest brother's three masters at all, but you made a move. Actually, you're doing it for me. ”

Yuan Qingmei saw that Zhang Rang didn't speak, so she continued to speak, "You took good care of me all the way back from Dayu. Now, it's even more because I'm on the opposite side of the Bai family and the Jin family. And I, too, have figured it out. The huge Yuan Family City can't fall into their hands, although I don't know how good I can do, but I will definitely not do worse than them. I don't want to be able to develop and grow Yuan Jiacheng, but I want to be able to keep the foundation of my Yuan family, and I won't be defeated in their hands. ”

Zhang Rang nodded.

In fact, I helped Yuan Qingmei during this time, on the one hand, I hope that Yuan Qingmei will be grateful to herself, so that she can get enough benefits in the future.

On the other hand, he also hoped that Yuan Qingmei would take the initiative to stand up and compete with her brother and sister for the position of the future city lord of Yuan Family City.

I met Yuan Qingmei, and the relationship is also good.

If Yuan Qingmei ascends to that high position, she will be able to get more benefits, and she will be able to get a higher status in the Yuan family.

Therefore, helping Yuan Qingmei is helping herself.

"You know I'm doing this for your good. In fact, at first, I just wanted to repay your kindness. It seems remarkable that I can defeat the martial artists of the Sigang Realm with the strength of the Sanhua Realm, but in fact, there are too many people in the rivers and lakes who can do this. And my enemies are no longer the Three Flower Realm and the Four Gang Realm, and even the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan! When a martial artist of the Five Qi Dynasty wants to kill you, he will not give you time to grow. So, to be strong, I need a stable environment. And you, who are too kind, need someone to help you if you want to survive in this deceitful world. Reciprocity, what do you think?"

Actually, Yuan Qingmei very much hoped that Zhang Rang would say something else.

If you can make your heart flutter.

It's just that Yuan Qingmei's heart was already moved before Zhang Rang could speak.

And Zhang Rang seems to be just thinking about mutual benefit.

Of course, there is something about Zhang Rang, and Yuan Qingmei has also heard about it.

Everyone in the rivers and lakes said that Zhang Rang, the ten-mile blood god, was as murderous as hemp and as ruthless as a snake and scorpion, but it is said that he killed Mei Fei because Jianyu Villa was unfair to him, and he controlled him by holding the elixir that he wanted to prolong the life of his child daughter-in-law.

This led to Zhang Rang's betrayal of Jianyu Villa and collusion with Dulong Villa and Butterfly Dance Villa.

It is better to be chased and killed by the rivers and lakes than to save the people you love.

As for the outcome, no one in the rivers and lakes knows.

Only half a year later, Zhang Rang came to the north alone.

At this point, it seems to prove something.

"It's just...... Is it mutually beneficial?"

Yuan Qingmei said in a low voice.

"What?" Zhang Rang didn't hear what Yuan Qingmei had just said.

Yuan Qingmei's face couldn't help but turn red, and she waved her hand again and again, "It's nothing, it's nothing." But today you offended my eldest brother Yuan Qingjin, which is equivalent to offending the Jin family behind him. The Jin family and the Bai family, although they are not first-class forces in the rivers and lakes, are also martial arts families with strong strength in the area of Yuanjiacheng. You need to be careful. ”

Zhang Rang smiled, "It's okay! In the final analysis, it's just a second-rate force." I've seen too many of these families, and I've killed one or two. Rest assured. ”

Zhang Rang said lightly, as if dealing with a second-rate force was like killing a chicken.

As Zhang Rang returned to his mansion, the next day, many Jianghu forces in Yuanjiacheng and some subordinates of the Yuan family came to visit Zhang Rang.

Everyone comes with a generous gift.

Although Yuan Qing is the eldest son, everyone can see at the moment that it is the city lord Yuan Tongxin who really has the final say in the Yuan family city.

And the matter of standing up for a long time, if Yuan Tongxin had planned it a long time ago, he would not have come out without a reason until now.

Even the Jin family and the Bai family are secretly competing.

As a result, at this time, Yuan Qingmei came out strongly, and there was also the help of Zhang Rang, the ten-mile blood god, at this time, as long as there was no problem with his eyes, he could see the attitude of the city lord towards Zhang Rang.

After all, the fourth son, Yuan Qingji, was deprived of an arm by Zhang Rang, and as a result, the Yuan family actually went to invite Zhang Rang to the City Lord's Mansion for a banquet the next day.

There are attitudes that don't need to be spoken.

You make it, and everyone sees it.

This is also the reason why some wall grasses in Yuan Jiacheng, who are half smaller, immediately came over to express their goodwill to Zhang Rang.

Because they knew that Yuan Qingmei, who was originally the least likely to become the heir of the city lord, was no longer what it used to be.

However, for those who visited, Zhang Rang did not see any of them.

But Zhang Rang accepted all their gifts.

He even sent someone to keep a record of who gave him something.

As for these things, what celebrity calligraphy, paintings, gold, silver, jewelry, etc. can't be used for cultivation immediately, Zhang Rangdu sent someone to Yuan Qingmei to send them over.

And Yuan Qingmei naturally understood what Zhang Rang meant, and quickly used these things to win people's hearts for herself, and at the same time exchanged some of the gold, silver and jewelry for cultivation resources, and then sent the cultivation resources to Zhang Rang.

For ten days in a row, Zhang Rang had been practicing in retreat.

And in the past ten days, the number of people who came to visit gradually decreased.

However, neither the Jin family nor the Bai family sent anyone over to find trouble for themselves.

Zhang Rang didn't know if these two families were cowardly, or if there were other reasons.

But it was indeed a good thing that he didn't come over and disturb himself while he was cultivating.

It was also during these ten days that a large amount of cultivation resources were added.

Zhang Rang finally cultivated the Void Flower completely.

At this moment, in the void above the dantian, a purple flower of true qi had already condensed into nine petals, each petal was very full, crystalline, and bright.

Next, it is to use the secret method to cultivate the flower heart and spit relics.

Zhang Rang believed that it was impossible for Xie Jiufang to be the only one in the entire rivers and lakes who knew the perfect cultivation method of the Three Flowers Gathering Peak.

The reason why Jianghu Jiupin is Jianghu Jiupin is because the martial artists they have cultivated are far more powerful than those cultivated by other sects.

Martial arts is indeed an important part, but it's not the whole story.

Each sect has its own heritage, such as this kind of cultivation secret method and secret, which is one of the reasons why being in their hands can make them more powerful than others.

So, if you are getting stronger, in the same way, everyone else is getting stronger.

However, during the retreat, Zhang Rang felt that he also had to come out to take a look at the current situation in Yuanjiacheng.

After all, it's not the beginning, and I'm not the killer who can stay in retreat in Sword Rain Villa without asking about things outside.

Now I want to lay a foundation for my future in the Yuanjiacheng area, so I still care about everything in the outside world.

And just as Zhang Rang came out of the room, he saw Bai Ziyi asleep against the door.

Sure enough, is it still tamed?
