Zhang Hao stood quietly on the street, watching the gang of people walk by menacingly. After listening carefully for a moment, he understood some of the causes.

It turned out that the Heavenly Pavilion had recently been building a large number of buildings, requiring these city lords to pay taxes.

But out of nowhere, a guy came out of nowhere, several times and three times robbed the disciples of Tiange on the way, and the collected taxes were also robbed, and if he resisted, he would be seriously injured at least and killed on the spot.

Although the people in Zhongzhou are richer than other places, they can't help but loot like this, and after a few times, they have caused the taxpayers to complain.

However, Zhang Hao became interested in people who dared to rob the disciples of the Heavenly Pavilion. After looking for a place to live in the city for two days, he went to the local auction and found that there were all kinds of strange items in the auction, but there was nothing he needed.

Later, when he heard that the City Lord's Mansion was going to send someone to collect taxes from the Heavenly Pavilion, he planned to follow him.

Out of the city, the people in front of me were the same guys who were on the street that day asking for a tax increase. With Zhang Hao's current cultivation, if he wants to track down a few cultivators in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, he will naturally not let them find out.

Those people didn't dare to stay too long along the way, and hurried towards the hinterland of Zhongzhou. A few days later, I came to a place called "Tianyu City".

Looking at the three big characters hanging high on the city gate, Zhang Hao frowned, always feeling that he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it.

"It's a fight, go and see, the Xu family and the Du family are fighting on the field of life and death!"

As soon as he stepped into Tianyu City, there was a shouting sound from the street, and immediately after, people with excited faces ran past him.

Seeing such a noisy scene, Zhang Hao's face hidden under the mask showed a hint of surprise. As the crowd walked towards the center of the city. When I got there, I realized that the life and death scene I did was just a venue similar to a ring.

At this time, there are two people fighting above.

After talking to the people watching around him, he learned that the Xu and Du families each occupied half of Tianyu City, and most of today's battles were due to some entanglements of interests.

The two have been grudges for many years, and they have done a lot of things to secretly suppress each other, and in recent years, they have intensified, and now they have completely turned their faces.

Zhang Hao was not interested in these, so after listening to them for a while, he planned to leave, wanting to continue to follow those people. But when his gaze swept over the two people who were doing it above, he suddenly stopped.

"Bang!"

One of the tower-like men wielded a long stick of gold and iron and smashed it at the other party, but he dodged it, and the stick fell on the high platform, making a loud noise, followed by rubble flying.

However, his opponent took the opportunity to stab the strong man in the throat with a sword.

A woman standing near the high platform suddenly exclaimed: "Brother Tie!" and it was this exclamation that reminded Zhang Hao of the identity of the strong man on the stage.

As soon as the woman's exclamation fell, the strong man on the stage narrowly avoided the long sword stabbed at his throat, but was kicked in the chest by the opponent.

With a muffled sound, the strong man was kicked off the high platform and fell into the crowd. And the woman who screamed just now immediately rushed to him like crazy, helped the strong man up, and asked if he was injured with a concerned expression.

At this moment, the person on the high platform rushed down suddenly, and the long sword stabbed at the strong man with a snort.

"Stop!"

Suddenly, someone shouted, and then dodged in front of the strong man, Zhang Hao looked at it, and saw that he was just an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy, gorgeously dressed, and he looked pretty good, but unfortunately his cultivation was only in the early stage of the infant.

This kind of strength may be considered good here, but if you go outside, you will only be beaten.

It's a pity that the young man's shouts didn't stop the man, the long sword that flickered in the cold light became faster, and the onlookers hurriedly retreated one by one, and the field looked extremely chaotic for a while.

"Du Yingjie, we have already lost, what do you want?" Just as the long sword in the man's hand exuded a fierce murderous aura, a woman's shouting made him stop, and then he saw the girl walk out from the side of the high platform.

When Zhang Hao saw this woman's appearance, he remembered what he had forgotten when he came to Tianyu City.

"Hehe, Miss Xu, since you admit defeat, you ...... the matter with my eldest brother" The man known as Du Yingjie put away his long sword, looked at the woman who came over, and smiled.

Hearing this, before the woman could speak, the young man standing in front of the strong man suddenly shouted: "Du Yingjie, I want my sister to agree to your conditions, dream!"

Hearing this, the other party's face immediately sank slowly, the cold light flashed in his eyes, and he sneered: "What?

"What do we regret? Don't forget, today is just a private gamble, according to the agreement, even if we lose, we will only give up ten stores!" Miss Xu said unhurriedly.

This sentence suddenly made Du Yingjie's face completely gloomy, and he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll see how long you can drag it out!"

After that, he didn't linger any longer, turned around and walked out of the crowd, and at the moment of squeezing into the crowd, his footsteps paused slightly, and said, "After an hour, let out the ten storefronts, otherwise ......"

"Are you okay?" However, Miss Xu ignored him, turned to look at the strong man who had just fought and asked.

The black charcoal-like face showed a hint of decadence, but the strong man shook his head and did not speak.

"It's okay, let's go!" Seeing this, Miss Xu didn't ask any more questions, whispered, and took the lead to walk out of the crowd.

The young man helped the strong man, and the group of four squeezed out of the crowd. At the moment when they turned to leave, Du Yingjie's eyes showed a cold and cold light: "I want to see what other means your Xu family has......"

Miss Xu squeezed out of the crowd with a teenager who called her sister and a strong man like an iron tower, and was about to leave, but was stopped by a man wearing a ghost mask.

Seeing this, her face suddenly showed displeasure, and she asked angrily, "What? Can't you even wait for these few days?"

However, the man wearing the mask didn't pay attention to him, his eyes just stared at the strong man like the iron tower, and after a while, he slowly took off the mask and said, "Brother Tie, long time no see!"

"Zhang ......" The strong man is the friend Tie Yi that Zhang Hao met when he first went to Tie Mo Panic, but he didn't expect to meet here after a few years.

Tie Yi recognized him at a glance, and just wanted to speak, but thinking of the boiling wanted pursuit in the past two years, he hurriedly stopped the words that came to his lips, and lowered his voice: "Come with me!"

At this time, the woman who followed Tie Yi was also excited in her eyes and wanted to come up and speak.

"You're Xiaoyi, right? Hehe, I almost didn't recognize it!" Zhang Hao turned his head to look at her, first showing a thoughtful look, and then laughing softly after a while.

And hearing that he still remembered himself, Xiao Yi suddenly nodded happily, grabbed Tie Yi's arm tightly, and said: "We have been worried about you all along, but I didn't expect you to come to Zhongzhou, this big brother Tie doesn't have to talk to you often!"

Zhang Hao smiled at first, and finally turned his gaze to Miss Xu, but after just a glance, he looked away again, and said to Tie Yi: "Let's go, find a place to talk!"

"Why don't you go home!" Seeing this, Miss Xu hurriedly whispered. As soon as Tie Yi wanted to nod, Zhang Hao walked alone to a restaurant not far away.

Looking at his back, everyone was stunned for a while, and in the end, Xiao Yi gently tugged Tie Yi's arm, and he reacted, hugged his fist at Miss Xu and said, "I'm sorry, my brother is a little withdrawn, so I won't bother Miss Che'er, today's matter ...... I'm so sorry!"

"It's nothing, you go!" Miss Xu shook her head, but her eyes stared coldly at Zhang Hao's back, and her face was a little unpleasant.

Tie Yi didn't say anything more, and chased after Xiao Yi quickly, and the three of them walked into the restaurant one after another.

"Sister, who is that person?" The young man standing next to Miss Xu frowned, he obviously felt the indifference of the other party just now, but for a person who met for the first time, what made him indifferent?

"I don't know!" Miss Xu dropped a sentence coldly, and turned around and walked in the other direction. This filled the young man's heart with even more doubts.

In the private room of the restaurant, Tie Yi sat there and sighed, telling what happened to him after leaving Tie Mo's panic.

Back then, he, Liu Dui and Zhang Hao, the three of them came out of the ruins of the Lingdao Sect, and soon heard that the latter was wanted, and the disciples of the Daoist Sect also quickly found him and forced Zhang Hao's whereabouts.

In desperation, Tie Yi gave up the foundation he had worked hard for many years, and took Xiaoyi across the ocean alone, and came to Zhongzhou after several journeys.

But there are countless large and small forces here, and it is not so easy to gain a foothold, and they are desperate, and finally they happened to catch up with the Xu family to recruit guards, so they took Xiaoyi to defect.

"Speaking of which, you have also suffered from me!" Zhang Hao sighed after picking up the wine glass and drinking it all.

However, Tie Yi laughed out loud, waved his hand and said: "What is not involved, this kind of thing will not be mentioned between our brothers in the future, people's fate is destined, we can meet again, I am already satisfied!"

Xiao Yi obediently filled the wine glasses of the two and sat quietly listening to their conversation. After a while, he suddenly tilted his head and asked, "Brother Zhang, how have you come here in the past few years? Are they no longer wanted for you?" At the beginning, Brother Tie wanted to take me to look for you, but then he saw that there were portraits of you everywhere, and he was afraid that he would cause you trouble, so we hid in Zhongzhou!"

"They, hehe, they're no longer there!" Zhang Hao sat there and sneered softly, and then briefly told some of the things he had led to destroy the Dao Sect. However, he didn't say much about the appalling things, just a sentence.

Rao is like this, Tie Yi couldn't believe it when he heard the news of the collapse of the Dao Sect, he actually didn't have any idea in his heart about how terrifying that force was, but how easy was it to destroy a sect that had been established for hundreds of years?

The three of them sat in the room and talked in a low voice for two full hours, only to end when it was about to get dark outside.

During this period, Xiao Yi also seemed a lot more lively, constantly interjecting and asking about some things. Zhang Hao also told about coming to Zhongzhou to look for people this time, but he did not reveal Ling'er's identity, but only said that he came to find a friend.

In this regard, Tie Yi patted his chest and said that he wanted to help him inquire, but Zhang Hao could only shake his head and smile bitterly, Ling'er's girl didn't want people to find out her whereabouts, and with the group of people Tie Yi is making friends now, I'm afraid it will never be possible to find her whereabouts.

The three of them left the restaurant, and after agreeing to talk again tomorrow, Tie Yi took Xiaoyi to Xu Mansion in the east of the city.

But Zhang Hao didn't choose to go together, he found an inn in the city alone to stay, and then thought about where to find the little girl who likes to make trouble.

After talking with Tie Yi, he learned that Zhongzhou is far bigger than he imagined, only the territory of this city is several times larger than a small country like the Great Yuan Kingdom, and this is a secluded courtyard at the back of the inn......
