"My gang leader always likes to hide his abilities. Maybe even the seventh rank he revealed to us now is a lie."
Shen Xu said with a hint of profound meaning.
When Wuwang heard this, he felt that his gang leader's strength was more than just seventh rank.
But no matter whether Yan Xiong has hidden strength or not, for Wuwang, who has just entered the eighth rank, he is no match for him.
After a moment of silence, he gradually lost his killing intent and said in a deep voice:
"You invited me to the banquet, not to show off your gang leader's strength to me!"
"Not bad!" Shen Xu turned around and walked back to his seat, poured two glasses of wine, and said:
"My gang leader is interested in Liusha City, so I would like to ask Brother Wuwang for help!"
"That's impossible. We, the various chambers of commerce, are one entity. I can never help you.
I will pretend that I don’t know about what happened today. I hope you won’t come looking for me. I don’t want to die yet.”
After hearing Shen Xu's words, Wu Wang immediately refused.
He was indeed contacting the Yang family in Songyao City, preparing to expand his business and take over one of the three major chambers of commerce in one fell swoop.
But this was just a competition among their slave owners.
But if we cooperate with Tianxiahui, it will be different. Tianxiahui is clearly interested in the entire Liusha City.
If we cooperate, it would be like trying to get the skin of a tiger, and we might end up with nothing.
After saying that, Wuwang turned and left.
Fearing Yan Xiong's rising fame, he did not dare to attack Shen Xu, but he was not afraid of Shen Xu either.
Shen Xu is just a ninth-rank official, what can he do to him
Shen Xu watched Wuwang leave without stopping him.
Only after Wuwang left did he sneer.
"Have someone tell Jin Yuanbao about Wuwang's connection with the Yang family, and then tell him that Wuwang has also contacted my Tianxia Association and plans to swallow up all the slave businesses in Border Town."
Shen Xu actually had no real intention of cooperating with Wuwang when he attended the banquet today.
He just wanted to let other people in Liusha City know that Tianxia would be interested in Liusha City.
And Wuwang happened to meet him.
Just get the news of the cooperation between the two parties out.
No matter what the truth is, Wuwang's days in Liusha City will definitely not be easy.
At that time, he might even take risks in order to get out of the predicament.
And the Tianxiahui likes this kind of drama the most.
What I fear most is that you don't cause chaos. As long as you cause chaos, I can take over this city at the lowest cost.
…
Two consecutive days of selection.
On that day, five hundred men with the best riding skills and the strongest physique were selected from the Tianxiahui, and they were collectively gathered at the parade ground of the Tianxiahui headquarters.
The weather is gloomy today, and the dark clouds are like a mountain looming overhead.
But this did not affect the fiery gazes of the people present.
Under the heated gazes of the crowd, Yan Xiong slowly walked up to the platform.
Look around at everyone.
Yan Xiong didn't say anything for a long time, just watched quietly.
Only after everyone looked puzzled did his majestic voice ring out.
“Since the founding of the Tianxiahui, all the battles, big and small, have served to enhance the reputation of the Tianxiahui.
But is this our goal?"
His sharp eyes were like a sword, staring at everyone.
“No, it’s not!
Some people say that I, Yan Xiong, overestimate my own abilities. I am just a ninth-rank warrior, but I dare to name my gang Tianxiahui.
He said that one day I might be crushed to death by some strong man who passed by.
But what is the result
The result was that not only did our Tianxiahui not get destroyed, but it also became the most powerful force in the border town in just a few months.
Moreover, we haven't stopped yet.
We are still moving forward, moving forward with a strong attitude.
What does it take to move forward? Strength and power!
Without strength, the world will always be confined to a corner.
Therefore, I have chosen you from among many people.
You are the ones with the best riding skills and the most powerful martial arts in my Tianxia Association.
I will use you to create a team of God-Killing Guards that can kill gods and demons when they see them.
Did you see the armor and the BMW next to the training ground? The total cost of these things was about 300,000 taels of silver.
From today on, they are yours.
Put on the armor, ride on that BMW, then you can fight ten people at once, be invincible, and become a powerful weapon for my Tianxiahui to clear away obstacles!
… ”
Yan Xiong's speech was long but also very exciting.
But after a while, the many big men below began to roar excitedly.
“Drink…drink…drink!”
Yan Xiong raised his hand and pressed, and the sound suddenly stopped.
"You are all elites, heroes of the Tianxiahui who are at the forefront.
Therefore, your treatment will be different from that of others.
Each of you will be taught the five transformations of the Xiao family's secret martial arts in Zhuxiao City.
In addition, each of you can receive 200 taels of silver as an offering every month. If you encounter a battle and kill the enemy, there will be other rewards from the gang!"
Yan Xiong has always been generous to the gang members. He can get money, martial arts, even beauties and power from the Tianxiahui as long as you have made contributions and have the ability.
“Asan, put the armor on them and arrange for people to train them as soon as possible.
I want them to follow my words and deeds in the shortest possible time, and become the kind of army I mentioned."
After looking around, Yan Xiong gave instructions to Asan behind him.
"Yes, sir!"
…
Everything in the gang is back on track, and Yan Xiong spends his time training gang members, planning for the future, and teaching Nie Feng martial arts.
Time flies, and seven days have passed without me noticing.
In the past few days, the situation in the entire Mobei has become increasingly chaotic.
Various gangs and families began to side with the Blood Knife Sect and several major sects.
In the border town, almost all the aristocratic gangs began to gather manpower and rush to Shahai Sect after receiving the call from Shahai Sect.
Under such circumstances, Tianxiahui, a gang that did not obey the call of Shahai Sect, became an outlier.
He is the only gang in Border Town that doesn't follow orders.
In the martial arts world, the news that the Tianxiahui has already defected to the Blood Knife Sect has begun to spread.
The news spread more and more widely, until almost everyone knew about it.
Although Tianxiahui and Shahaizong had an agreement, it would be too weird if Shahaizong did not speak out under such circumstances.
So, two days ago, the Shahai Sect sent a seventh-rank elder to the Tianxia Association to question them.
But something happened that stunned everyone.
The leader of the Tianxiahui, Yan Xiong, personally intercepted the elder outside the Sand City.
The two men fought for three incense sticks, and finally the elder fled in embarrassment.
This incident made Yan Xiong's reputation soar in the underworld.
Afterwards, Tianxiahui directly and blatantly announced that the blood alliance with Shahai Sect was invalid, and Tianxiahui would form an alliance with Blood Knife Sect and become one of the only few affiliated forces of Blood Knife Sect.
This action instantly made Tianxiahui the isolated target of all forces in the border town.
In the past two days, a large number of other forces' industries in Sand City have been directly closed, and all shop staff have withdrawn from Sand City.
Yan Xiong pretended not to see anything and let them leave.
You have to do the whole act. Since you are a double agent, you have to do your best.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, the Tianxiahui is ready to follow the Blood Knife Sect to the end.
