The crisp sound of birds singing came in from outside, making Lin Ye open his eyes.

The slight sunlight shone through the window screen on Lin Ye's face, still a little dazzling. Lin Ye looked slightly sideways, looking at Jiang Xun who was snuggling beside him, with a softer look in his eyes.

Lin Ye gently stroked Jiang Xun's hair. Maybe he was too tired yesterday and had not recovered yet, or maybe it was last night - in short, Jiang Xun's face was full of fatigue.

Lin Ye kissed Jiang Xun's forehead again, but did not disturb Jiang Xun. After getting off the bed and put on his clothes, he pushed the door and walked out.

The wind is a little cold, but the sun is good~

"Young City Lord!"

Before Lin Ye could walk a few steps in the mansion, a maid walked over quickly, bowed to Lin Ye, and said, "There is a man in black robe named Luo outside the door who wants to ask to see the young city lord."

"Luo?" Lin Ye's eyes flashed with brilliance and said, "Take him to the main hall and put the best tea."

"Yes," the maid stepped back respectfully.

"Luo... But it's only been one night, Luo Kangan can't sit still. It seems that my lion is going to speak ~"

When Lin Ye put on his formal clothes and walked into the lobby of the city lord's mansion, the man in black robe had been waiting here for a long time. Looking at the familiar body of the man in black robe, Lin Ye smiled and said, "Brother Luo, it's been a long time since I saw him. I've lived a good life these days~"

This sentence stopped in Luo Kangan's ears and was extremely awkward. Finally, he smiled bitterly and said, "Young City Lord Lin, don't make fun of me, a person who is about to fall into the ground. Young City Lord, this time I come here, I really want to come and ask for cooperation."

Lin Ye believed this, otherwise Luo Kangan would not have run here alone at a huge risk. Lin Ye slowly took a sip of tea without answering the words, and was not in a hurry at all.

Helplessly, Luo Kangan could only continue to say: "Young City Lord, now is a great opportunity for your Qingcheng Sect. Now the Great Liao Dynasty is restrained by the Song court in Northeast Yanyun, and there is no time to take care of this side. The recent year of continuous wars has caused the Dangxiang clan to lose a large number of elite disciples. Now it can be said that the weakest moment for the Dangxiang clan in the next few decades! Once the Dangxiang clan recovers, with the large amount of land swallowed, it is enough to build a country. How can the Qingcheng Sect fight against it?"

After saying that, Luo Kangan looked at Lin Ye on the main seat. Lin Ye was still drinking tea slowly without saying a reply.

This made Luo Kangan's face a little gloomy, and he continued to shout: "At present, the Qingcheng Sect may have the power to defeat the Dangxiang army, but it is impossible to swallow the territory of the seven clans, and I can do this!"

"After all, the territory of the seven clans has fallen for more than a month, and there is still a lot of the seven clans' strength in Zhucheng. As long as the Dangxiang army retreats, I give my order, people's hearts can rely on it!!"

At this time, Lin Ye finally spoke: "Then we have been busy for so many days, aren't we all making wedding dresses for you? Brother Luo, what you think is so good, right?"

Luo Kangan said in a deep voice: "Of course I will not let your Qingcheng Sect return empty-handed. When you get the territory of the seven clans, any Qingcheng Sect can develop industries within the seven clans. Moreover, 30% of all taxes in Zhucheng belong to your Qingcheng Sect, how about it?"

"Brother Luo, you'd better invite him back, Han Qian, see him off!" Lin Ye slowly got up and walked towards the back hall, and Han Qian also walked up slowly and apologized to Luo Kangan, "Sir, please leave."

Luo Kangan's face changed completely and he hurriedly said, "Young City Lord stay!! If the Young City Lord feels dissatisfied, then you and I can discuss it again, why bother like this! Young City Lord, what do you hope?"

Lin Ye stopped and said lightly: "My request is three. First, you must join the Qingcheng Sect and become a member of the Qingcheng Sect!"

"What!? This requirement is too much! Young City Lord, if it weren't for me, how could your Qingcheng Sect swallow the seven tribes' territory!!"

The first one made Luo Kangan's face change. In fact, it was nothing to join the Qingcheng Sect. After all, with his strength, the Qingcheng Sect could not limit him much.

But once he publicly joins the Qingcheng Sect, if he dares to betray Qingcheng in the future, his reputation will be at least bad, and the reinstatement of the seven clans will have no basis for the people's hearts.

Lin Ye whispered: "If you can't swallow it, you can't swallow it. As long as I don't die, the Dangxiang tribe will not dare to completely turn against the Qingcheng faction, right?"

Luo Kangan: “…”

Although Luo Kangan was unwilling to admit this, he had to admit it.

An eighteen-year-old master of the Great Adult Period has an unlimited future achievements. The Dangxiang clan really dares not offend him at will.

Luo Kangan hesitated for a long time, and Lin Ye was not in a hurry and waited for him.

Finally, Luo Kangan said, "I won't join Qingcheng Sect, but I am willing to join the Young City Lord!"

"My subordinate?"

"Yes! I am willing to follow the young city lord!!"

Anyone with a discerning eye in the world can see that the Qingcheng Sect now relies on Lin Ye. Since that is the case, it is better to worship Lin Ye's disciple.

It’s not embarrassing to be by the side of such a genius!

"This...is also possible, but it's time to announce it to the world."

"Well, Young City Lord, what about the next two?"

Lin Ye continued: "I want 70% of the taxes in all the cities in the old land of the seven clans!"

"What!?"

It’s simply less and less bottom line, this is absolutely impossible!!

Luo Kangan said in a deep voice: "Young Lord Luo, are you really going to cooperate?"

"Of course not," Lin Ye continued casually: "If you agree to these conditions, it would be better to conquer the old land of the Seven Clans and let us Qingcheng send our own care. If I take charge of the Seven Clans, I don't believe that the old land of the Seven Clans will make a fortune! Why do you need your cooperation?"

"Brother Luo, the only thing you can see in the seven clans is you. It doesn't matter whether there is one or not. If Brother Luo doesn't want to cooperate, then leave."

"..." Luo Kangan fought in his heart for a long time, and finally sighed and said, "Okay, this husband has agreed, Young City Lord, what is the last one?"

"I will personally appoint the city lord and financial officers of Zhucheng, the old land of the seven clans!"

"What!?"

There is really no bottom line. Luo Kangan was forced out by Lin Ye.

"If so-if so!!"

Luo Kangan's face looked ugly, but looking at Lin Ye who was still standing in front of him and was ready to leave at any time, Luo Kangan was silent.

Without external support, he would not be able to recover the glory of the seven clans in this life, and in about ten years, his physical strength will permanently collapse and weaken.

Slowly becoming a useless person...

"I, I promise..."
