Ji Xuanxuan kept a straight face and kept looking at the disciples who were practicing.
After such a long time, she has gradually adapted to this kind of life, and she deeply understands the difficulty of being the master of the family.
Sometimes she couldn't help but think that running a martial arts gym by herself was already exhausting herself. Wouldn't it be even more tiring for Zuo Zhongming, who was in a high position?
However, thoughts like this will eventually turn into a bitter smile.
Because Ji Xuanxuan knew that she and Zuo Chongming were, no, it should be said that they had never been in the same world.
No matter how much she thought about it, there was no point, it would only increase her worries.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh, and called her junior sister Liu Ruoyu, asking her to take care of her disciples' practice while she turned around and walked towards the study.
It was almost the end of the month, and she had to settle accounts.
The whole family's daily necessities now depend on her alone, so she can't help but slack off a bit.
"Master, there is someone visiting outside the door."
"who?"
"They didn't say anything, they just sent this."
The disciple scratched his head and quickly handed over a round jade pendant.
"This is……"
A look of surprise suddenly appeared on Ji Xuanxuan Gujing Wubo's face, and she quickly said: "Please come into the main hall quickly, no, I will go there in person."
As soon as he finished speaking, a familiar voice came on the wind: "We have come in."
"division……"
Ji Xuanxuan's delicate body trembled slightly and she couldn't help but step forward and grab her hand.
Bian Yunqing glanced around and said softly: "Come into the room and talk."
Ji Xuanxuan suppressed her excitement and quickly led the way: "Follow me, this way."
Several people came to the main hall one after another.
Ji Xuanxuan invited several people to sit down and took the initiative to pour tea: "Master, you are finally back, disciple, disciple..."
"Xuanxuan, you did a good job."
Bian Yunqing sighed as he looked at the disciples practicing outside, and said with relief: "It is the most correct decision to pass on the position of sect leader to you."
"Master is so complimentary."
Ji Xuanxuan's face flushed, and she hung her head in shame.
In fact, she didn't quite understand why so many people came to become apprentices after the martial arts gym opened, and she didn't even have time to publicize it.
Today, the Xuanjian Martial Arts School has opened many branches in major towns and cities in Xiyun Mansion, with almost tens of thousands of disciples.
"Master."
Ji Xuanxuan seemed to have thought of something, and sighed: "Some time ago, you suddenly received a letter, in which you warned me not to participate in the martial arts alliance."
"The disciples didn't quite understand it at first, but it wasn't until they saw their fate that they suddenly realized..."
When those martial arts forces joined forces, they also sent invitations.
Because they knew that Xuanjian Martial Arts School...or Xuanjian Sect was somewhat involved with Zuo Chongming.
If Xuanjian Martial Arts School joins, unexpected surprises may happen.
But Ji Xuanxuan received Bian Yunqing's letter and directly rejected the invitation.
Little did she know at the time that this move would save the Xuanjian Martial Arts Hall from a catastrophe.
Now, every time she thinks about it, she still feels scared.
Thinking of this, Ji Xuanxuan asked curiously: "Master, how do you know that the Wulin Alliance will fail?"
Bian Yunqing sneered and explained: "It's very simple. Their predicament was caused by Zuo Chongming. Do you think Zuo Chongming will leave no backup plan?"
She has suffered too much and has a psychological shadow.
I would rather not take advantage than fall into Zuo Chongming's trap.
Based on this idea, she sent a letter to Ji Xuanxuan to prevent the other party from accidentally falling into a trap, which would eventually lead to the severance of the Xuanjian Sect's inheritance.
"Created by one hand? He, he..."
Ji Xuanxuan's almond-shaped eyes widened, filled with unbelievable shock.
Bian Yunqing held her hand and said earnestly: "Xuanxuan, my master came back this time to tell you the most important thing."
"You said." Ji Xuanxuan focused her attention.
Bian Yunqing stared at her and said word by word: "Never, never, never be an enemy of Zuo Chongming, remember, never."
Ji Xuanxuan opened her mouth and nodded obediently: "Disciple... keep it in mind."
Bian Yunqing was still a little worried and added: "Even if you suffer a loss, don't confront him head-on. Take a step back and the world will be brighter."
Ji Xuanxuan was stunned and asked in confusion: "But, what if he bullies people too much and kills them all?"
"He won't."
The veiled woman next to her suddenly said: "Looking at Zuo Chongming's rise and the various choices he has made..."
"It is not difficult to see that he is a strong and domineering but thoughtful person. As long as he is obedient and honest, he will not easily kill everyone."
Ji Xuanxuan responded solemnly: "Master, I, I understand."
Bian Yunqing continued: "The second thing is to tell you, don't think about rebuilding the mountain gate in the short term, unless you decide to move away from Xiyun Mansion."
Ji Xuanxuan didn't understand again: "Why is this? I have already saved a lot of money..."
Bian Yunqing sighed: "Didn't Xiyun Mansion create newspaper news? If you pay attention to it often, you should understand the reason."
"From an overall perspective, forces can be roughly divided into imperial courts, sects, aristocratic families, clans, martial arts schools, and individual people..."
"There is no need to say more about the imperial court. Xiyun Mansion is Zuo Chongming's official residence."
"Although the San people are the largest in number, they are like a loose sand without a leader. Zuo Chongming established a mercenary guild to use it for his own purposes."
"As for martial arts schools, Zuo Chongming caught a few typical people to scare the monkeys. Once the martial arts schools are honest and obedient, they won't be too harsh."
"On the contrary, it is sects, aristocratic families, and clans... They are not only the main components of the martial arts world, but they also control various mineral resources and have a large number of masters."
"As the saying goes, if a chivalrous man breaks the law with force, how can he allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the couch?"
"Zuo Chongming naturally regarded them as a thorn in his side, and deliberately planned to get rid of them, and even laid out a careful overall plan."
"He first threw out bait and emptied the accumulated savings of the martial arts forces, and then used the help of Buddhism to suppress it forcefully."
"Not only that, Zuo Chong even introduced various laws against them and put heavy shackles on them to prevent them from recovering their strength."
At this point, the atmosphere was somewhat silent.
After a while, Ji Xuanxuan came back to her senses: "You mean, the sect is being targeted everywhere, so it's not as comfortable as the current martial arts gym?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "That's right."
Bian Yunqing nodded slightly and smiled bitterly: "If the mountain gate is rebuilt now, the sect will have no other way to make profit except doing business."
"But even if you do business, you still need to pay high taxes. Which one do you think is more valuable?"
"..."
The corners of Ji Xuanxuan's mouth twitched and she was speechless.
——

Hou Mansion.
Lei Gong stood respectfully in front of the table with a complicated expression: "Master Marquis, do you really want to..."
Even though he already knew what was going on with Ouyang Yu, it was still emotionally difficult to accept it.
After all, he had watched Ouyang Yu grow up and vaguely regarded her as half a daughter.
"If it were possible, I wouldn't want to."
Zuo Chongming twitched the corners of his lips and sighed: "It's difficult to train a talent, isn't it?"
Lei Gong sighed secretly and said with a wry smile: "Master Hou, if you summon this old man back, you should have other instructions, right?"
Zuo Chongming nodded and returned to the topic: "Ouyang Yu should have many loyal followers in the Liansheng Sect, right?"
Lei Gong mused: "Strictly speaking, everyone in the Liansheng Sect belongs to her now. After all, you, the leader, have not shown up for a long time and are too mysterious."
Zuo Chongming picked up the tea and took a sip: "So, we must arrange a suitable death method for Ouyang Yu to prevent this power from being wasted."
"What are you going to do...?"
Lei Gong's heart skipped a beat, and when he saw his smile, he couldn't help but feel a little creepy.
"Simple."
Zuo Chongming knocked on the table: "Let Feng Heli disguise himself as Ouyang Yu. Accompanied by you, we will convene a Liansheng Sect resolution, and the leader will also show up."
"The content of the resolution is that Ouyang Yu and the leader had differences about revenge against Zuo Chongming, and the two sides were at odds, so everyone was asked to make up their minds."
"Ouyang Yu's opinion is that before evacuating Xiyun Mansion, he should secretly raid Zuo Chongming and exact revenge."
"The leader's opinion is that Zuo Chongming is now powerful and Xiyun Mansion is his territory. It is wise to leave first."
"Naturally, Ouyang Yu's diehard fans will support her. The leader will pretend to be angry and let her act freely."
"The next step is to perform a wonderful drama for Ouyang Yu's die-hard fans."
"The process was very simple. Ouyang Yu's plan failed, and he was captured by Zuo Chongming and was quickly taken to the execution ground for execution."
"At this time, Ouyang Yu's die-hard fans will definitely choose to seek help from the leader and ask him to rescue the saint."
"Then, the leader pretended to understand the righteousness and went to the Fucheng execution ground alone to rescue the saint Ouyang Yu..."
"As you know, it was definitely a failure. Ouyang Yu died on the spot, and the leader was seriously injured and escaped..."
"However, after this series of events, Ouyang Yu's diehard fans will think that the leader has tried his best, and Ouyang Yu's death can only be blamed on herself and Zuo Chongming..."
"By then, Ouyang Yu's image will collapse, and as people die like lamps going out, their loyalty will naturally be greatly reduced, and they will no longer resist the orders of the leader."
After Lei Gong listened to these words blankly, his mind went blank.
He couldn't help but sigh, Zuo Chongming was so cruel. He squeezed the living people into corpses, squeezed two ounces of oil out of the corpses, and burned the mummified corpses as firewood. They really made the best use of everything.
All the results of Ouyang Yu's hard work will eventually be taken away by Zuo Chongming, and even his own value will be squeezed out.
"By the way, I think Liu Binghui is probably not dead. You should pay more attention then."
"Ah? Liu Binghui?"
"This guy is indeed a talent. If I were in Ouyang Yu's shoes, I would not miss the opportunity to recruit him."
"My subordinates know."
"Okay, let's go get ready."
"Master Hou, regarding the Litian Sword Sect and others..."
"Not urgent."
Zuo Chongming pondered and said: "When the news of Ouyang Yu's arrest is exposed, I will contact them as the leader and continue the evacuation plan."
At this point, a sneer rose on the corner of his lips: "However, this leader will break into the tiger's den alone and be seriously injured and disappear for a while."
"If they are not honest during this period, then there is no need for them to exist. If they are honest, then let them live."
The corners of Lei Gong's mouth twitched, and he secretly mourned for these sects.
Based on his many years of experience, the Liansheng Sect's hard power is not strong now. If the leader disappears again, there will definitely be changes in those sects...
Just like the barbarians back then.
The barbarians originally agreed to cooperate with the Liansheng Sect, but as the Liansheng Sect was severely weakened, they immediately turned their backs and disowned them.
To put it bluntly, it is a word greedy.
Although the plan has not yet been launched, Lei Gong has already sentenced Li Tianjian Sect and others to death.
He didn't think that these Jianghu forces, which had been drained of their wealth, were qualified to compete with Zuo Chongming.
