Xu Yang smiled and shook hands with Shangguan Jie, and said politely: "I have also been looking up to Director Shangguan for a long time, so young and promising, I can take over the Demon Capital Martial Arts Bureau at the age of my early thirties, which can be regarded as a record for the entire Huaxia." ”

Shangguan Jie laughed and said, "How can the small martial arts bureau be taken into the eyes of Mr. Xu?"

The two talked and laughed and walked slowly towards the villa, but the topic involuntarily began to sharpen.

"That's what I said. Xu Yang's smile began to melt, and he said: "The Martial Arts Bureau is the most powerful force in the Demon Capital, Xu Yang is just a small businessman, not worth a bit, not worth a bit." ”

"Where, where?" Shangguan Jie didn't seem to notice the slightest feeling of being left out, and still said with a sincere face: "I have long heard that Mr. Xu can create dishes suitable for martial arts cultivation. With such an amazing talent, not to mention a small martial arts bureau, even the head of the Martial Arts General Bureau in the imperial capital has heard of Mr. Xu's name. ”

It turned out that he came for this, Xu Yang nodded, no wonder Shangguan Jie was so polite today.

But Xu Yang also knows that politicians like him are often one thing in front of him and one thing behind his back.

A few days ago, he was still working in the Qin family, and he wanted to unite the big families of the whole demon capital to deal with him, so he ran around today to get favors.

But isn't that good?

Xu Yang is waiting for him to please himself.

Anyway, it is impossible to tear your face with the Martial Arts Bureau for the time being, so it is better to use each other.

Isn't it beautiful?

The two of you come and go, hypocritically, very ...... .

Feng Ling on the side couldn't listen to it, but where his duty was, knowing that Xu Yang didn't need this level of protection, he still stayed by the side.

Xu Yang didn't care so much, since Shangguan Jie was ostensibly casting a friendly signal, it was impossible for him to talk about anything, and that night he saw that the other party contacting the Qin family and preparing to deal with his own affairs.

Sometimes, playing stupid is much more effective than being dead.

What's more, now that Xu Yang still has to ask for help, of course his attitude has to slow down.

"Director Shangguan, since you come to the cold house with such a face, why don't you have a dinner together?"

"What's so embarrassing about this?" Shangguan Jie's eyes rolled, and he suddenly said: "However, I have heard for a long time that Mr. Xu has a unique recipe, and the several flavors of food he concocted are extremely magical, and they will actually have the effect of improving the internal strength of martial artists." Then Shangguan Jie is presumptuous today, and he must taste it. ”

Xu Yang scolded in his heart, this kind of creature with such thick skin will still order food?

Naturally, it was impossible for him to cook himself.

However, he had trained an apprentice before, and although the dishes he cooked were not as effective as those cooked by Xu Yang himself, they also slightly improved his internal strength.

Coupled with "five-flower brewing", Xu Yang felt that he was already very worthy of a scum like Shangguan Jie for this meal.

Feng Ling is not qualified to serve at the table, although Xu Yang usually has no shelf, he always eats with Xu Yang, but since there is the director of the Martial Arts Bureau today, he can only stand and accompany him.

The guests and hosts enjoyed themselves, and after a meal, even Shangguan Jie's attitude towards Xu Yang changed a lot.

However, Xu Yang didn't believe that the guy in front of him, whose eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, would be so easy to speak.

On the contrary, he asked a lot about the situation of the Martial Arts Bureau, Shangguan Jie's half-truths and half-truths, and he didn't know which sentence he could believe and which one could not be believed.

"Although I didn't get to taste Mr. Xu's craftsmanship, these dishes are really good. After eating, my whole body is warm, and I guess my brother's skills can go to the next level. Shangguan Jie snorted, began to call Xu Yang a brother, and asked: "No wonder Brother Xu's martial arts rank has risen so fast, tasting this kind of superb dish every day, his internal strength is improving day by day, and he is about to reach the level of a high-level martial artist, right?"

Xu Yang smiled and said, "Such good dishes are not very easy to eat on weekdays." Each dish costs a lot of natural treasures, otherwise, wouldn't everyone be able to become a martial artist? Today, it is also the director of Shangguan who is in person, Xu will take out all the remaining precious ingredients, and he is a little distressed when he thinks about it. ”

Shangguan Jie laughed, although he didn't fully believe Xu Yang's words in his heart, but he also believed that dishes of this quality were definitely not made with ordinary ingredients.

Otherwise, why would Xu Yang sell at a high price? Wouldn't he make a fortune?

Looking at the martial artists waiting on the side, the level is only the seventh order, and they can't take it at all.

It was thought that in the process of cultivation, the consumption was too great, so Xu Yang could only take out some ingredients to make some dishes, in order to raise more funds to obtain precious materials.

Although there is a profit, it is still different from the previous estimate of the General Administration.

Therefore, Shangguan Jie's interest in Xu Yang is not as great as before.

After this meal, Shangguan Jie didn't think he could improve too much, which made him misjudge the situation and think that Xu Yang's dishes were nothing more than that.

Of course, Xu Yang will not say it explicitly, these are just dishes made by the chef with two knives he collected, and the effect is far less than what he did himself.

Shangguan Jie loves to misunderstand, so let him misunderstand.

Fortunately, the atmosphere at the table was very harmonious now, and Xu Yang simply asked a few words directly about the news of the "Martial Arts Rookie Competition".

Shangguan Jie's face was a little strange, and he asked rhetorically, "Brother Xu, do you want to participate in the rookie competition?"

In his opinion, Xu Yang, a master who has obviously become famous, has no need to participate in such a low-level competition.

As long as he is willing, whether it is the Three Sects or the Seven Sects, which one is not willing to recruit him?

The young master, coupled with this cooking skill, can cook dishes with amazing results, and I heard that he is also a master of Xinglin, and once diagnosed the poisoning symptoms of Jin Mingguang, the head of the Jin family.

No matter which one it is, it is enough for the famous sect to recruit him as an inner disciple and cultivate him carefully.

Wouldn't it be superfluous for him to participate in the "Martial Arts Rookie Competition" again?

Xu Yang could naturally see what he meant, his eyes glanced at Feng Ling's side slightly, and said to Shangguan Jie with a smile: "I'm not very interested, but I have a few friends who are quite interested in this competition, and I want to ask for them." ”

Shangguan Jie suddenly realized that Xu Yang naturally didn't need to gain anything through this competition, but his friends and subordinates didn't have the ability to do this.

To put it bluntly, he wanted to go to the competition with his friends and make a way for them to make sure they could enter the main sect.

In this way, his power can truly be firmly established.

Shangguan Jie didn't want to help Xu Yang with this, the stronger his subordinates were, the more troublesome Shangguan Jie would be to deal with Xu Yang in the future.

However, with a roll of his eyes, Shangguan Jie considered another possibility.

"I don't know Brother Xu, how many friends do you want to participate in this competition?"

Xu Yang said without thinking: "Two, plus me, there are three people in total." If Director Shangguan can help me with this, Xu Yang owes you a favor! ”

He also took this into account, if he could rely on the system to improve quickly, then if the two of them, such as Feng Ling and Lu Ye, could go to the famous sect to study for a few years, there would be no harm in it.

After all, these two people, in Xu Yang's estimated future, will be in charge of themselves.

has a famous golden signboard on his body, which is very beneficial to the future growth of both of them.

As for Luo Hao and Boss Jin, one does not have any qualifications to practice martial arts, and the other is old and has passed the best time to practice martial arts, so there is no need to let them participate in it.

And there must always be someone in the magic capital.

Shangguan Jie thought about it for a while, and then said angrily: "The Demon Capital Martial Arts Bureau has sent twenty places in previous years, and the places in this competition have already been allocated. But since Brother Xu has spoken, he is offending people, and Brother Xu will also get three more places for you. ”

If these three people can successfully enter the top fifty, then even if Xu Yang does not go to the sect to cultivate in the end, he will at least lose two of his most powerful and potential subordinates in the short term.

This is actually a very beneficial thing for Shangguan Jie.

It is equivalent to seriously weakening Xu Yang's strength.

What's more, if Xu Yang went to the imperial capital, naturally there would be people to deal with him.

The imperial capital is naturally a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, and Shangguan Jie also has a lot of connections there to use.

Senior Brother Tian Feng's revenge can be avenged at the sight.

If Xu Yang had an accident in the imperial capital, no one would think of him as Shangguan Jie.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Jie smiled slightly, naturally he was responsible for it.

Mrs. Tang never imagined that her plan would be accidentally cracked here.

Hearing Shangguan Jie's promise, Xu Yang was naturally full of smiles and thanked him repeatedly.

For Shangguan Jie, three places are certainly not a problem, the problem is that he is willing to make a move, which is already very satisfactory to Xu Yang.

As for whether there is a conspiracy behind him...... , don't think about it, there must be.

However, there is absolute strength, of course, Xu Yang will arrange everything before leaving the magic capital.

Boss Jin had previously recovered to the peak of the year, a sixth-order martial artist.

Then Xu Yang certainly has the confidence and ability to let him surpass his limits again.

It doesn't need to be too shocking, the fourth order should be enough.

At that time, the demon capital will have a fourth-order martial artist in charge, and Xu Yang doesn't plan to ask Boss Jin to do anything, as long as he can stabilize the situation, wait for Xu Yang to return.

After sending away Guan Jie, Xu Yang fell back into deep thought.

He found himself missing a big problem.

Since Shangguan Jie is happy to send himself to the imperial capital, does it not only mean that he wants to transfer the tiger away from the mountain?

It is more likely that he wants to use a trick to "drive the tiger and devour the wolf".

Use someone else's hand to carry out his own arrangements.

Pity......

Xu Yang can be sure that the director of Shangguan has a worse vision.

It was absolutely impossible for him to see that he was already a second-order martial artist.

In contrast, the fourth to fifth orders should be his own positioning.

Xu Yang is also very helpless, he doesn't want to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger.

But he was also afraid that if his true strength was seen by others, it would definitely cause a sensation in the entire martial arts circle.
