In the next period of time, Qin Wentian never left the command house. All the large and small forces in Beicheng District came to pay tribute on their own initiative. There was no need to go out to collect tribute in person. Qin Wentian even gave an order not to take the initiative.
Collecting tribute will put pressure on the forces in Beicheng District, and no one will dare not come.
In the mansion, Xu Li came to report. He stood in front of Qin Wentian and looked at the handsome figure in front of him. He was filled with emotions. He thought back then, when he listened to the advice of the Barbarian Emperor to intercept and kill Qin Wentian. Decades have passed and now,
Qin Wentian has actually become so powerful that he is like a god in the realm of the Immortal Emperor. Even the Evil Emperor admits that he is definitely not Qin Wentian's opponent, far from it.
If Qin Wentian had such fighting power back then, perhaps the palace master would not have been captured, and Emperor Helan would probably be a dead man.
I hope that one day Qin Wentian will continue to rise and be strong enough to defeat the Lord of Lihuo Palace. Only in this way can he have a chance to rescue Ye Qianyu.
"How is it?" Qin Wentian asked.
"All major forces have completed their tributes, and almost all forces have made up for the tributes that were not paid in the past four times." Xu Li replied, the deterrent effect of that battle was too strong, more than twenty immortals
After the fall of the emperor, everyone including several top immortal emperors were killed, who dared to act so arrogantly?
"Oh?" Qin Wentian's eyes flashed and he said, "They also paid tribute over there?"
"Well, the forces on the surface of the Helan clan also took the initiative to pay tribute, making up for the past tribute, no less, and there was no trouble." Xu Li nodded.
"Helan family." Qin Wentian murmured, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Such an enemy is terrifying. On the bright side, he will never do anything to you or give you anything.
There are excuses to deal with them, but in the dark, murderous intentions are everywhere, and you can't even find their figures behind them.
"Be careful with the Helan family from now on." Qin Wentian ordered.
"Yes." Xu Li nodded. He naturally understood the danger of the Helan clan, like a poisonous snake. As for these tributes, they were nothing to the Helan clan.
"The number of people in our commander's office is still too small. Do we need to expand?" Xu Li asked. Although the commander's office now has a very high prestige, how could Xu Li not understand that this prestige was actually brought by Qin Wentian alone. If
Without his strength, would the Commandery Mansion be as prosperous as it is now?
During the battle at the Furukawa Auction House, Xu Li saw the number of strong men from the major forces and felt that the Commander's Mansion was too weak. Any first-class force could compete with the Commander's Mansion. The Immortal Emperor had only a few more powerful men than the Commander's Mansion.
Young master, once Qin Wentian is gone, there will be no deterrence. Taking this opportunity, we can develop and expand the commandery.
"Indeed." Qin Wentian nodded, but then he frowned again and said, "But don't worry, wait until I come back from Lihuo Palace, distribute rewards to everyone, and then send out news to recruit people.
Those with high cultivation levels are not fools. Of course they understand that entering the Commander's Mansion is not as safe as they imagined, and the only thing that can attract them is their cultivation resources."
"One more thing, the recruitment of deputy commanders and deacons needs to be personally checked by the Evil Emperor. Do you understand what I mean?" Qin Wentian said.
Xu Li's eyes flashed, and then he nodded and said: "I understand that it is indeed easy for people to infiltrate the recruitment opportunities of the Commander's Mansion, but if they are willingly controlled by the Evil Emperor, I am afraid many people will not be happy."
"I'm just asking a question. I will never explore their secrets. If you don't agree, I'd rather not do it." Qin Wentian said. Xu Li nodded, then stepped back and left.
After Xu Li left, Qin Wentian had a thoughtful expression on his brows. He not only had to guard against the Helan family, but also the Lihuo Palace. If the Commandery Mansion was strengthened, if one day, the Lihuo Palace would be the main
What should we do if we attack him and, with one order, the people in the commander's office directly turn their attention against him and his people?
These things need to be thought of in advance.
…………
In Lihuo Palace, the day of tribute came, and the leaders of the five major cities once again gathered in the garden of the palace lord's residence in Lihuo City, with maids waiting on them.
However, the difference is that the atmosphere this time is slightly subtle.
In the past few decades, Qin Wentian, the commander of Beicheng District, has kept a terrible low profile and rarely shows up. Every time he comes here, it is inevitable to hear a few sarcastic words, especially Xia Hou, the commander of Central City District, mocking Qin Wentian.
He didn't show any emotion at all.
However, this time, of course they had heard about what happened in Beicheng District. Qin Wentian fought hard, swept through all the emperors, and killed several top immortal emperors. Although they had not seen it with their own eyes, they could still imagine Qin Wentian's battle.
How strong and domineering he was, Commander Xiahou had insulted Qin Wentian many times in the past. When this incident came out, it was like a slap in his face. Even though Qin Wentian didn't say anything, the atmosphere was still a little abnormal.
The five commanders each sat in their own place. Qin Wentian was wearing white clothes and quietly sipping tea, while Commander Xiahou was drinking without saying a word, with a tense face, as if he was very unhappy.
Of course, Xiahou had his reasons for being unhappy. Decades ago, in the central city where he was located, the affairs of the Emperor's Palace plunged his palace into a scandal. The palace lord's personal maid, Immortal Emperor Ziyue, went to deliver the message in person. After that, the commander-in-chief
The imperial government lifted the ban on Emperor Pavilion. Since then, the development of Emperor Pavilion has been out of control. Now it has become one of the largest trading markets in the central city. It is bustling. Every time I hear someone talking about how Master Ditian has refined it,
He was extremely unhappy when the magic weapon was revealed.
Now, Qin Wentian, who had been ridiculed by him, has risen strongly again. It is rumored that the Beicheng District Commandery Office has collected the tributes that have not been collected in the past decades. No force dares not to pay tribute. It only took five years.
Ten years later, Qin Wentian entered the realm of intermediate Immortal Emperor cultivation and caused such a big disturbance in Beicheng District. In the past, even if Qin Wentian heard his humiliation, he would not bother to respond.
Xiao Meiren held her chin with both hands, looked at Qin Wentian with her beautiful eyes, and said with a smile: "He is getting more and more handsome."
In the past, when she praised Qin Wentian, Yin Qiu would always say something sarcastic about Qin Wentian, but this time, Yin Qiu rarely said anything and just glanced at Qin Wentian who was quietly drinking tea.
"Commander Qin." Xiao Meiren shouted. Qin Wentian turned his eyes to Meiren Xiao and said with a smile: "Commander Xiao, what do you have to say?"
"I've invited Commander Qin for decades, why haven't I seen Commander Qin come to my Nancheng Commander's Mansion as a guest?" Beauty Xiao had a charming smile in her beautiful eyes, as tender as water, and her eyes were alluring.
"I have really been busy practicing these years. Commander Xiao, don't be offended." Qin Wentian responded with a smile.
"Now that I have reached the intermediate level of Immortal Emperor, I should finish my work and come when I have time." Xiao Meiren seemed not to understand at all, but still smiled.
"If I have the chance, I will definitely go." Qin Wentian smiled.
"If you are willing to come, you can treat my Commander's Mansion as your own home." Xiao Meiren giggled, with some hint hidden in her voice. Yin Qiu's face turned pale and she glanced at Qin Wentian, feeling very unhappy.
This bitch seduced Qin Wentian every time. He had coveted him for a long time, but Meiren Xiao never paid attention to her.
"If Commander Qin is free, you can come to my city lord's mansion for a walk." Lin Ba also said with a smile.
"He just did what he was supposed to do, and it took him fifty years to do it. Are you okay with that?"
Smiling without saying a word.
Xiao Mei and Yin Qiu also looked at Qin Wentian with a smile. They saw Qin Wentian sipping tea, slowly putting the tea cup down, and a sarcastic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. Whether he was the emperor or the emperor outside, this Xia Hou was not the same.
He didn't even give him any face. In the past, he kept a low profile and didn't want to cause trouble, but this Xiahou was as proud as ever.
"It's embarrassing to say that Qin's realm is low, and it took him a full fifty years to be able to solve the palace master's worries. With the majesty of the Xiahou commander, he must have been able to sweep across an area and calm down everything when he was in the middle-level Immortal Emperor realm.
The chaos in the city can be easily controlled, but the palace master did not bother to let Commander Xiahou go there, which is too unworthy of his talent." Qin Wentian said calmly, who could not hear the sarcasm in his tone.
Xia Hou turned around and glanced at Qin Wentian, and said: "Don't be arrogant when you speak. This has just begun. How can we accomplish anything if we are so complacent?"
"I don't have Commander Xiahou who is so majestic and powerful. He sits in the central city and rules an area. He can't accomplish anything. I think back then, Commander Xiahou never cared about the Imperial Pavilion, even if the city was full of troubles."
With a click, the wine glass in Xiahou's hand shattered and was crushed into powder by him. His eyes instantly became extremely cold. He slapped his palm on the table and said coldly: "Are you making trouble?"
"Bang." Qin Wentian also slapped his palm on the table, with a cold feeling released from his body, and said indifferently: "Commander Xiahou has ridiculed me for many years, but I never paid attention to it. Now when he replied to Commander Xiahou, he became my pick.
Yes, Commander Xiahou is indeed very majestic."
"What do you want?" Xia Hou's eyes showed a cold light.
Qin Wentian narrowed his eyes and flashed an evil smile, saying: "Commander Xiahou can't stand Qin so much. Let's have a decisive battle. Whoever loses will give up his position as commander and get out of Lihuo City. How about that?"
Everyone present was shocked. The brilliance in Xiao Meiren's beautiful eyes became brighter and she became more and more handsome.
Lin Ba and Yin Qiu also stared at Qin Wentian. This guy actually challenged Xia Hou.
Xiahou's face was extremely gloomy. For a mid-level Immortal Emperor to challenge him like this was a slap in the face, and it was simply contempt for him.
"I'm happy to accompany you." Xia Hou said coldly.
"Have you had enough trouble?" A scolding voice came, and then everyone saw Zhuge Xiong coming towards this side and his figure landing.
"Commander." Everyone stood up and bowed their hands to Zhuge Xiong.
"You two are very courageous to act so nonsense here, Palace Master." Zhuge Xiong snorted coldly.
"It's a good thing to be a little angry. Besides, Qin Wentian has made great achievements this time. If he didn't have anger, how could he have settled the matter in Beicheng District in one fell swoop." The voice of the Lord of Lihuo Palace came, and then the two personal maids heard the voice.
Accompanied by him, the Lord of Lihuo Palace came here!
