In the Huocheng Beicheng District Commander's Mansion, all three deputy commanders were executed. The Lihuocheng Commander personally sent people to investigate, but after learning the results, they left without saying anything.
Lu Tong attacked Qin Wentian and injured Qin Wentian. Zhao Yichuan and Zhong Zihua even joined forces to plot to kill their immediate boss. Qin Wentian killed them, which was completely in line with the rules. No one could say anything. People below were panicked. The people in charge of the mansion Everyone became extremely cautious, and no one dared to challenge Qin Wentian's majesty.
A few days later, Qin Wentian appointed three deputy commanders, all of whom were bandits from Qianyu Palace. Except for the Evil Emperor, he sent all the people from Qianyu Palace to take charge of the commander's mansion. Although Qin Wentian was not yet He planned to expand, but at least he had to completely control the commander's office first. As in the past, when he gave an order, no one responded, and none of the three deputy commanders showed up. How to do things
Of course, Qin Wentian didn't plan to do anything for the time being. Although what happened that day was a near miss, with his immortality, even if his body was penetrated, he still recovered quickly, but it was still considered a blessing to Qin Wentian. A lesson learned. After the Evil Emperor took control of Zhong Zihua, although it was not clear from Zhong Zihua that it was the Helan family who controlled him, Zhong Zihua said that a mysterious person came to him, gave him the soul-killing needle, and told him to join forces with Zhao Yichuan. They said it was Qin Wentian, and Zhong Zihua himself guessed that he was from the Helan family.
Not only that, according to Zhong Zihua, the three deputy commanders and many deacons below have accepted bribes from different forces. Everyone tacitly knew what might be behind it, but no one would say anything. After all, their cultivation resources, except for being distributed once every ten years from the Lihuo Palace, are only rewarded by the commander-in-chief based on the tribute. But the commander-in-chief in Beicheng District can't receive much tribute, so don't expect any rewards. , the people in this commanding mansion are very poor.
Qin Wentian asked the Evil Emperor to find the housekeeper, and went out to investigate at the same time. Then he looked at the files and marked all the industries in Beicheng District that might have the Helan family involved. In the end, he surprisingly discovered that the Helan family almost controlled Beicheng. All the largest industries in the city, such as the big auction houses, the Divine Weapon Hall and the Pill Pavilion, may have their presence, and even some medium-sized forces may have people from the Helan family controlling them behind the scenes.
Before the Lord of Lihuo Palace became the Lord of the Palace, the Helan clan had taken root in Lihuo City. There were many big clans in Beicheng District. The Helan clan was recognized as the first clan. Among all the major clans, the Helan clan They have a deep relationship. For example, many heads and wives of wealthy families came from the Helan family.
Not only are they deeply rooted, they are also expanding outwards, and even have connections with the Realm Lord. It is conceivable that they are powerful, so they can compete with the Lord of Lihuo Palace.

Qin Wentian couldn't help but sigh. In the Ancient Immortal Realm, when you control powerful enough resources, you can turn them into terrifying forces. For example, with a single order from the Helan clan, many immortal emperors can come to worship as guests. , more attractive than the Commander's Mansion, because the Helan family is rich enough, they can provide enough cultivation resources for the casual cultivating immortal emperors to maintain their cultivation, and can also provide powerful imperial weapons and precious imperial pills.
… …
The once-in-a-decade tribute date has finally arrived again, and the entire Lihuo City is busy. Of course, the city lords' mansions in each area are the busiest. For the people of Lihuo City, some people just have one more thing to pay tribute to. , many forces took the initiative to pay tribute.
However, the City Lord's Mansion in Beicheng District has very little ability to take the initiative to pay tribute, and it can almost be called a deserted one. From this, we can see how poor the prestige of the City Lord's Mansion in Beicheng District is, and no force cares about it at all. Of course, this is also Because in the past ten years, the City Lord's Mansion in Beicheng District has provided little protection to various forces, and many battles have been resolved by themselves.
On this day, the three deputy commanders of the Commander's Office took the initiative to collect tribute. However, it did not go so smoothly. Some small forces were reluctant to pay tribute, while some large forces were not so cooperative.
Deputy Commander Xu Li, who was a middle-level Immortal King, was the man who intercepted and killed Qin Wentian that day and let him go. When he was collecting tribute at the ancient river auction house, he encountered a big event. A treasure was obtained from the auction. Strong men have been killed, and storage rings and treasures have been robbed. Private killings are absolutely prohibited in Lihuo City. There are irreconcilable conflicts that need to be decisively fought, and there is a special place for fighting.
Xu Li looked at the corpse on the ground with a very ugly expression. Opposite him stood people from Furukawa Auction House, led by an old man. He said: "Commander Xu, it's not that our auction house is uncooperative, it's just that over the years I have There have been many incidents, big and small, in the auction house. Now, such a serious murder occurred outside my auction house. Is there any incident that the Commander-in-Chief’s Office helped me solve? Now that the day of tribute has come, the Commander-in-Chief’s Office will immediately He has become more positive, which is a bit unreasonable."
"That's right, no reward for no merit, even if the palace master is here, he will definitely understand us." Someone bowed their hands in the void to show respect for the master of Lihuo Palace.
"Furuhe Auction House is a big auction house in Lihuo City. It is so powerful and powerful that it actually makes the auction winner die. And it happens to be when I come to collect the tribute, this..." Xu Li's expression flickered. Leng Mang, as a bandit, he had never seen anything before. Such an obvious trick was obviously intended to target their commanding house.
"What does Commander Xu mean by this?" The old man's face instantly darkened, and he said coldly: "Our Furukawa Auction House has been around for many years, how could it be that we would destroy our own sign? Commander Xu, on the other hand, did not investigate such a big thing when it happened, but he is still here It would be too ridiculous to doubt my auction house when you are busy collecting tributes."
"Actually, for Beicheng District Yan, the existence of the Commander's Office is not that important. It is of no use at all. They have to pay tribute once every ten years to do whatever they want. It's ridiculous."
"Yes, in short, I don't plan to pay tribute, unless one day, the Commander's Office can really show the capabilities of the Commander's Office."
"Commander Xu, these words are not what I said. Everyone present has strong opinions." The old man from Furukawa Auction House said indifferently. Xu Li swept everyone away, and many forces from the other party appeared together. , the lineup is only stronger than theirs. If this kind of thing cannot be handled, they can only report it to the Palace Master. Even if the Palace Master intervenes, it will be disadvantageous for them. Moreover, what these people said is not wrong. He is in charge of the mansion. did not do.
"Okay, I will not accept the tribute today, but my commander's office will investigate this person's death." Xu Li said coldly.
"In that case, thank you Commander Xu for understanding." The old man cupped his hands and Xu Li walked away.
Qin Wentian seemed to have guessed that this would inevitably happen, so he told him that if he could not receive the tribute, he would not accept it, and he would avoid any conflicts. The Helan family had been watching them in the dark. I am worried that I can't find a chance to deal with them.
Not only Xu Li, the other two commanders also encountered a similar situation and did not receive much tribute.
Three months passed in the blink of an eye, and the tributes received by the Beicheng District Commander's Office were pitifully small. Qin Wentian brought these tributes to Lihuo Palace. No matter how much he received, these tributes must be paid first. Give it to the palace lord.
In a courtyard of Lihuo Palace, there are several figures here, four men and one woman. These five people are the current five commanders of Lihuo City.
Xiahou, the central leader, has the power of not being angry.
Lin Ba, the commander of Dongcheng, has a tall build and a majestic face, with a Chinese character face and a beard. His whole person exudes a majestic air.
Xiao Meiren, the leader of Nancheng, was extremely beautiful and charming. She also called herself a beauty and was very narcissistic, so everyone called her Xiao Meiren.
Yin Qiu, the commander of Xicheng, has a fair face, like a white-faced scholar. His face is too white, which even makes people feel that he is overindulging in lust, and has a bit of a strange feeling.
The commander of Beicheng, Qin Wentian.
At this moment, Lin Ba and Xiao Meiren were looking at Qin Wentian, Lin Ba looked a bit amused, while Xiao Meiren kept smiling, her eyes extremely charming and seductive.
"I didn't expect Commander Qin to be so handsome. No wonder the Ye Emperor's daughter did not hesitate to risk her own life and found herself in dire straits for Commander Qin." Beauty Xiao giggled and kept staring at Qin Wentian.
"Meimei Xiao, can you be as handsome as me?" Yin Qiu seemed a little dissatisfied. He kept staring at Mei Mei. Xiao Mei was wearing an extremely sexy long dress, which outlined her figure in a very tempting way. The plump place, Yin Qiu couldn't help but want to reach out and try it. All the commanders knew that Yin Qiu had coveted Xiao Mei for a long time.
"How can you, a pretty girl like you, compare with Commander Qin?" Xiao Meiren sarcastically said unceremoniously, and then walked up to Qin Wentian. She had an alluring fragrance on her body, and her whole body seemed to be pressed against Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian took a step back involuntarily, speechless in his heart. Xia Hou and Lin Ba were still normal, but Xiao Mei and Yin Qiu didn't look like normal people, yet they were actually leaders.
"Commander Qin, do you think I am more beautiful or is Ye Qianyu more beautiful?" Beauty Xiao cast a wink at Qin Wentian. From Qin Wentian's perspective, she could even see places she shouldn't have looked at. This Xiao The beauty's clothes are much bolder than Ye Qianyu's, which is clearly seductive.
Qin Wentian smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Commander Xiao, please stop making fun of me."
"Beautiful Xiao, let a stunningly beautiful man like me be here, but you care so much about a loser hiding under a woman's skirt. You must have terrible vision." Yin Qiu said in a gloomy tone, Qin Wentian's eyes A cold light flashed in her eyes, and she looked towards Yin Qiu coldly. However, Yin Qiu didn't pay attention to his gaze at all, and stared at Xiao Meiren without concealing the desire in her eyes, with an evil aura about her body.
"That's enough." Xia Hou, the central commander, said coldly, looked at Qin Wentian and said, "Commander Qin, I heard that you killed all three deputy commanders within three months of taking charge of the commander's mansion?"
"The three deputy commanders are plotting to kill me, so I will naturally eliminate them." Qin Wentian nodded.
"Hmph, you can cut off others as soon as you enter the Commander's Mansion. Can't you make good use of it? The three Immortal Emperors are so easy to recruit. It must be uncomfortable to collect tribute this time." Xiahou said indifferently, with a hint of lesson. In terms of tone, among the five commanders, he is the oldest and the strongest.
Qin Wentian was a little dissatisfied. They were all commanders. The five of them were considered equals, and the commander here seemed not to care about his new commander.
