Collaboration with demons involves the major figures of the Governnt Office's Guardians and Military Departnt, along with those two noble clans.
If we were to calculate...
The Black Mountain Demon Mansion outside, after all, is still a fledgling, not counted as a mainstay demon lord, although it's more powerful than them. But outside, it's not worth ntioning!
Those Great Demon Fiends occupying the several peaks outside Black Mountain clearly understand this truth.
That's why they've never overstepped boundaries in their actions, or they would have already invited the third wave of extermination.
Pei Fangchan, after all, was one step away from entering the core of 'Shaoyang Mountain.'
Even if he left, his connections were more substantial than those two.
After hearing these words,
"Since a master from Shaoyang Mountain recognizes this young man..."
"Then let's just suffer a bit."
"After all, it's the Governnt Office's territory, let's bear it. How many years can such a Celestial Pride linger? Perhaps before long, he'll break out of Black Mountain."
"Moreover..."
"Demons don't act like us, so respectful. Perhaps sothing unexpected might happen?"
"Enough, enough."
"Not indulging in montary passion is the path to lasting success."
Recalling the precedents of Liang Longwei and Duan Nan Tian, at the end of the day, there was still so unease in the heart.
Ning Changfeng, who sighed in relief, and Fang Cang, who was slightly unwilling, looked at each other, smoothing things over mutually.
Their will.
Determines the will of the Three Halls and Seven Schools.
Thus,
The 'ten great powers' of Martial Arts Street, without even a skirmish, lowered their flags and ceased fire.
Why do people often say that background is greater than the heavens?
Because,
This, is the background!
But...
Perhaps Song Guardian himself, of Black Mountain, is unwilling to accept the 'gift' from this background's master.
However, that's a matter for later.
...
After the night, the wind stopped and the rain ceased.
Morning passed, with the sun high and suspended in the sky.
Underneath the blazing sun, feet on the stone slabs, producing a 'creak creak' sound.
As the young Guardian stripped off his crimson robe, dressed in a sharp and capable outfit, hair pinned up, with heroic spirit, walking steadily onto this Martial Street...
Before stepping in, he suddenly looked up,
Only to see atop the beams, at so unknown ti, a 'white cloth' had been hoisted, making it impossible for passersby to ignore it.
On it, ink black strokes ford a few large words, boldly stating:
"Song Guardian is young and talented, with a strong grip, cutting down traitors, sweeping away decay, truly a Celestial Pride of the Governnt Office not seen in Wutong Prefecture for a hundred years."
"In Shaoyang, Xuandu, Sword Spine Martial Arts Hall, among the younger generation, none surpass him, the rules of Jianghu are as they are, but the gap is too large, his martial arts 'artistry peak' is enough to lead the prefecture, what of a re town?"
"The Three Halls and Seven Schools are willing to honor Song Guardian as the 'Martial Artist Leader' of Black Mountain's younger generation."
"From now on, East Street, every apprentice and fee collection, all will pay 'three-tenths' to the Governnt Office, as tribute!"
Song Chai Xin raised an eyebrow, looking at the large, powerfully written words that couldn't be ignored.
Glancing inside,
He then saw a group of angry, rebellious Martial Arts Hall disciples, frequently looking towards this place, fists clenched, yet not daring to make any move, which made him laugh:
"This is how you show understanding?"
Making him feel quite embarrassed.
Since that's the case...
Then he won't hold back!
Completely ignoring the 'young' and other complintary phrases written on the white cloth.
Acting on his own, Song Chai Xin waved his hand, leading the constables led by Zheng Zizhen, ard with blades, swiftly coming out.
"Did you see that?"
Pointing at that white cloth, Song Chai Xin smiled:
"Martial artists always love to fight and are hard to manage in order."
"But since Martial Arts Street is willing to bow to the Governnt Office's 'rules'..."
"Then this Guardian thinks, the Governnt Office should establish a post here, let's decide by... Umm..."
Seeing Zheng Zizhen's effortful chest-out stance, Song Chai Xin pointed casually:
"It'll be you."
"From today, you are the 'Squad Leader' of Martial Arts Street, responsible for informing them of the rules at Black Mountain!"
"Break the law, fines will follow!"
Creak creak!
The sound of bones crunching echoed from nearby, causing Zheng Zizhen, who initially bead due to his promotion, to jerk his body nervously.
Can he really manage these hot-blooded martial artists...
Just a night ago, he was rely a small constable guarding the city gate, shivering inside.
But at this mont, a hand slapped heavily on his shoulder.
Song Chai Xin smiled, pointing inside:
"You just go in."
"The rest will be handled by this Guardian."
"I fear they won't break the law, or how could I assert authority?"
"If you want promotion and wealth, just step inside."
"Of course..."
"If you're afraid of death."
"Then just pretend I never said anything."
Zheng Zizhen, with his head bowed, originally had so reservations.
But after hearing Song Chai Xin's words, recalling his feats from last night and today, along with all the painstaking tasks he undertook, visits and letters delivered, if he more if he turned back now...
He would lose face and prospects, wouldn't he?
Getting hit left and right, what's the harm if you can go back and appeal, what's to fear, losing life is out of the question.
Compared to future prospects...
Not worth ntioning!
Do it!
Perhaps,
In the decades that followed,
Whenever he recalled today's and yesterday's decisions.
Zheng Zizhen would be imnsely grateful.
Compared to Chen Zhao, who was gradually aging, he still had youth on his side, with infinite possibilities.
Sotis, often just a small step forward.
Might lead to a 'completely different' life, who knows.
...
At this ti,
Mist shrouded, forming Yunluan Mountain, which at fifteen, Song Chai Xin declared, 'In thirty years, this mountain will bow to !'
Due to one Jade Talisman Spirit Letter.
Also stirred up a...
Wave of varying scale!
