Chapter 356 – The Tiger Emerges from the Scabbard
Being in the middle of a COS game when Curry Night crashed through, Xue Mu was in such a sorry state that he couldn’t play anymore and ran away with his pants up. Behind the curry night and Qin Wuyi thumping in the fight, attracted countless Star Moon Sect girls onlookers, rouge workshop a chicken hair, Xue Mu in Zhuo Qingqing and other people under the escort hurriedly holding the head to leave the rouge workshop.
Zhuo Qingqing and other personal guards followed by the side of the laughter broke the stomach: “Gongzi you yo ……”
“It was Qin Wuye who had to shout like that, it wasn’t me who made her shout ……”
“You dare to say you are not particularly excited?”
“I’m fucking wronged!”
“Save it for explaining to Curry Night!”
“I ……” Xue Mu realized that silence was the best response at times like this and simply shut up.
It had been a long, long time since they had returned to their “City Lord’s Mansion”, as if this city had nothing to do with him, God knows he was actually still a City Lord.
At that time in early May left Lingzhou, now already in the middle of September, casually counting actually more than four months have not returned to the house, do the city master to do this is also a unique.
However, according to the “governor of the same city” tearing practice, he is this virtue is to make Zhang Bai Ling usually comfortable to death, reasoning from all aspects Zhang Bai Ling is full of good feelings towards Xue Mu is right, once you look at the open, the basis of this cooperation is better than others.
When he arrived at the entrance of the City Lord’s Mansion, Xue Mu realized that the City Lord’s Mansion has changed a lot.
First of all, the Rouge Square Market has expanded, and is about to be connected to the City Lord’s Mansion, and if it expands further, it should be merged into one, which is also the result of Xue Qingqiu’s intentionality.
Even if he is not there, the entrance to the City Lord’s Mansion is still standing tall and majestic, guarded by the disciples of the Fierce Tiger Sect. Most of the matters inside the mansion were presided over by Meng Lan, the interior and exterior decoration, flowers and plants trimmed, all changed from the original appearance.
Two dozen Star and Moon Little Demonesses live in the house, which is the guards who returned from the capital together at the beginning, and is considered Xue Mu’s “inner guards”, only that they have never been put to use. They live in the mansion is not too boring, originally is to practice as a demoness, since there is nothing to do, everyone is also practicing, the clan for their resource supply tilted very much, these days actually broke through a lot.
The main reason is also the Star and Moon Sect is now rich in oil ……
At this time, Mighty Tiger Sect’s Xin Gertai was patrolling outdoors, very strict, Xue Mu greeted him and laughed, “There’s nothing to do on a daily basis, why be so serious?”
Singh Tai see is Xue Mu, actually very surprised, laughed: “Too idle, ashamed of this job, always have to find something to do.”
Fierce Tiger Sect is now considered to be back from the dead, Xue Mu’s salary for them is not high, but they belong to the first batch of Xue Mu’s personal subordinates that he formally recruited, the so-called “seven officials in front of the prime minister’s door” is common in any realm, and there is not much difference between Xue Mu and the prime minister in the Spirit State, so of course, everyone is looking at them with high regard.
Mighty Tiger Sect people look up, social status than in the past miserable look has long been turned upside down, the development of the clan is also officially on track. This door is considered to be a sincere man, up and down to Xue Mu and grateful and ashamed, because they all feel that they did not do anything, flat out benefit, is very upset …….
Especially Singh Tai, he was additionally instructed by Xue Qingqiu. This was simply a creation-level benefit for martial artists, and Singh Tai was already not weak, and now his cultivation was even more swish, and he was a character that could walk horizontally in the Spirit State Jianghu.
“Afraid of being idle?” Xue Mu smiled, “Soon you’ll be so busy that you’re afraid you’ll have to fight people every day.”
Instead, Singh Tai’s eyes lit up with an excited glow, “City Lord, feel free to command!”
Xue Mu pulled him into the door of the mansion and into the side hall. Only then did Singh Tai realize that there seemed to be a real matter of importance, and he sat a bit nervously and listened solemnly.
Xue Mu said, “Do you know the situation in Yizhou?”
Singh Tai said: “roughly know …… these two months Yi state a mess, everywhere beacon, fighting in a mess. Now the Mind Sect is also gone ……”
“Hmm.” Xue Mu said, “In this matter, Ji Qingyuan and the positive and demonic sides of the agreement is that he only need to Yi state thousands of miles of dominion, in other words, this piece of territory will not have another such as the mind of the Sect as a strong cutter, will be taken over by the imperial court management. Even if the righteous devils move in, they won’t be blatantly sending out powerful people to cut off the territory, but will only be of the nature of a rudder. Do you know what that means?”
Singh Tai scratched his head, “Just like the Spirit State in the early years? All the various forces are there?”
Xue Mu nodded, “Right. The difference with Spirit State is that Spirit State is called a state, but it’s actually just a county, Yi State is the real big state, thousands of miles of territory, it’s several Spirit States, there’s too much room for development.”
Singh Tai woke up to Xue Mu’s meaning, “City Lord wants me to go to Yizhou?”
Xue Mu dipped his hand in the tea and scratched on the coffee table, “Right now, the original clans, families, and so on within the territory of Yi Prefecture have almost been broken up by this chaotic war, and it’s considered to be a piece of white land, and soon there will be various emerging forces rising in Yi Prefecture like a rainstorm, redrawing the pattern. With my Star Moon Sect and even the Alliance of the Six Paths behind you, it will never be too difficult for you to rise into an upper class sect in this opportunity.”
Singh Tai’s eyes grew bright.
“Demon Sect clans are rarely turf-conscious, you have almost no internal competitors, instead, the Vertical and Horizontal Dao and all of them can serve as excellent collaborators for you, it’s simply a heavenly gift of the time.” Xue Mu smiled, “Can you have confidence?”
Singh Tai pursed his lips and thought for a while, “My subordinate’s eyesight is not as far-sighted as City Lord’s, I don’t know what to mention?”
“Huh? I can’t see that you’re quite thorough and not a reckless person, that’s even better.” Xue Mu laughed, “There are naturally changes …… Nature Sect and Wild Sand Sect will definitely not honor the agreement with Ji Qingyuan this time, and what kind of mischief they will start in Yizhou, even I don’t dare to predict.”
Singh Tai mused, “Even if they want to grab the territory, they can’t swallow the whole of Yizhou, right? Not to mention that the imperial court and the various sects of the Devil Sect won’t be able to sit back and watch. How should I avoid these whirlwinds or capitalize on the chaos to grow is what I should have in mind?”
Xue Mu said, “Right! Even if you don’t mention the strong sects meddling, you can’t avoid hundreds of battles, big and small, and crises if you want to develop anyway. But this sky is high and the sea is wide, it’s the time for men to show off their ambition, do you dare to give it a try?”
Xin Gertai openly rise, solemn clasped fists: “This kind of opportunity in front of all dare not try, that my generation practice martial arts what use? Don’t worry, City Lord, my subordinate will definitely fulfill his mission!”
Looking at Singh Tai leaving with a burning desire to fight, Zhuo Qingqing sighed, she really didn’t think that Xue Mu was playing father-daughter games on one side, but then he had a far-reaching plan on the other side, she didn’t even know that Xue Mu had used these brains even when she was accompanying him closely.
“Qingqing.” Xue Mu laughed, “Let’s make a bet, will this be a middle-of-the-road clan foothold, or will it be a fierce tiger coming out of the scabbard?”
Zhuo Qingqing laughed, “A moderate foothold is also a gain, and a fierce tiger coming out of the scabbard would be a big profit.”
Zhuo Qingqing’s heart was very impressed. Xue Mu had a sentence that hit the nail on the head – the sects of the Devil Sect seldom had a sense of turf, and this move was Xue Mu grabbing the lead, so as long as Singh Tai wasn’t too stupid, there would be a good gain in this game, and if it was really a fierce tiger coming out of the scabbard, it might be that the role in the future could be more than anyone could have ever imagined.
This was a reflection of how Xue Mu’s mindset was completely different from that of the Devil Sect.
Meng Lan drifted in right at this moment, brought Xue Mu a cup of tea, and asked in a low voice, “My lord, do you want to have an interview with Zhang Bai Ling?”
Xue Mu thought for a moment and shook his head, “On Zhang Bai Ling’s side, it’s still okay for you to butt in, it’s best to keep things as they are on the surface, in case my meeting with him reaches Ji Qing Yuan’s ears, it won’t be hard for him to change county guards.”
Meng Lan let out an “oh” sound, but also did not go, the atmosphere suddenly quieted down.
Zhuo Qingqing glanced at Meng Lan, knowing that this girl wanted to recommend a pillow, secretly despised her and wanted to leave.
A big hand pulled her back, Zhuo Qingqing turned her head in shock, but saw Xue Mu with a shy old face, “Doesn’t Servant Master Zhuo want to compete with the little demoness under his banner to see who’s better at kung fu?”
Meng Lan’s face flew red and she hung her head without saying anything.
Zhuo Qingqing was furious and amused, who said that this bastard’s thinking was different from the Demon Sect? It was clearly a Demon Sect Demon, pure and simple!
