White House.

After returning home, Jiang Ning picked up some things and went to Bai Luoyu's mansion.

The two houses are only about 500 meters apart.

After walking a few steps, Jiang Ning arrived in front of Bai Luoyu's mansion.

"You two, please inform them for me!" Jiang Ning bowed.

"Sir Jiang, there is no need to inform us of your arrival. I will lead the way for you right away!" one of them said.

"Thank you very much!" Jiang Ning said.

After entering the front yard of the Bai Mansion and taking a few steps, the warrior guarding the yard asked a maid he met on the road to inform Bai Luoyu in advance.

After a while.

The backyard of the Bai Mansion.

"Brother Jiang!" Jiang Ning had just stepped into the backyard when he saw Bai Luoyu walking towards him with a smile.

"Brother Bai!" Jiang Ning also smiled.

"What are you doing?" Bai Luoyu's eyes fell on the fish in Jiang Ning's hand, a look of surprise appeared on his face.

Seeing this, Jiang Ning picked up the fish in his hand and shook it in front of him.

"I killed a fish demon with a cultivation of more than 200 years in Luoshui Lake before, and brought it here today for Brother Bai to taste."

"After more than two hundred years of cultivation, this is a rare item!!" Bai Luoyu's eyes suddenly lit up.

Then he smiled and said, "Since this is Brother Jiang's good intention, I won't refuse."

After saying that, he took the electric eel meat from Jiang Ning's hand and raised his hand to call a maid.

"Go and take care of it for me!" Bai Luoyu said.

"Yes, sir!" the maid bowed.

"Brother Jiang, please take a seat first!" Bai Luoyu raised his hand to signal.

At this moment, two pots of wine have been prepared in the pavilion in the backyard.

Bai Luoyu added: "Please forgive me, Brother Jiang. I didn't know that you came at this time, so the good dishes were not prepared. Now I can only have good wine to entertain you! As for the good dishes, the kitchen is rushing to prepare them, and they will be served later."

Jiang Ning smiled and said, "Brother Bai, you are too polite! I came here without permission and was so abrupt. I should be the one to apologize!"

Done.

Jiang Ning added: "Thank you, Brother Bai, for today!"

"That's nothing!" Bai Luoyu sneered, "You and I are good friends, I just made an appearance! And looking back, I shouldn't have had to make an appearance at all. If Brother Jiang wanted to, I think the Liu family would have been a river of blood today. If you give the Liu family a random name afterwards, the Liu family will become the history of Dongling City today."

Hear the words.

Jiang Ning shook his head.

"The Liu family is my eldest sister-in-law's family, and also the grandparents of my nephews and nieces. There are some things that we still have to be careful about."

Hear this.

Bai Luoyu burst out laughing: "Brother Jiang is indeed a man who values ​​friendship and loyalty. He is worthy of being my friend, Bai Luoyu!"

As they were talking, the two of them had already taken their seats.

"I'd like to offer a toast to Brother Jiang!" Bai Luoyu said.

After a glass of wine.

Jiang Ning refilled their glasses of wine.

"Brother Bai, I toast to you. My eldest brother and his wife and their family would also like to thank you for your care over the past two days."

After the second glass of wine.

Bai Luoyu then spoke: "It's a small matter! Come to me if you have any problems in the future. I will do my best to help as long as I can."

"Since Brother Bai said this, I would like to offer him another drink!" Jiang Ning said.

Bai Luoyu sneered when he saw this.

He didn't refuse, but drank it all in one gulp.

Three cups of wine.

Bai Luoyu then showed a look of emotion: "Brother Jiang, I didn't expect that you actually have more than sixty years of skills."

Jiang Ning was not surprised that Bai Luoyu knew about this.

The internal energy he had just released at the Liu family was used to intimidate and oppress the Liu family.

On the other hand, he also revealed himself to Bai Luoyu.

He knew that it was difficult for people to have extremely pure friendships, especially at the beginning, which often started out of interests.

Just like it is difficult for a rich businessman to be friends with a beggar.

More than 90% of the adult friends in this world are at the same level.

The fact that Bai Luoyu has such a close relationship with him is not just because she likes him.

Therefore, he chose to reveal his total internal energy just now in the Liu family.

Subsequently.

"To have such power, it's just luck and fluke!!" Jiang Ning continued: "In the previous world, a fish demon with more than 200 years of Taoism was found in Luoshui Lake."

Hearing this, Bai Luoyu suddenly understood and said thoughtfully: "Could it be the companion of the fish monster?"

"Not bad!" Jiang Ning nodded.

"So that's how it is!" Bai Luoyu suddenly realized, and then nodded: "That makes sense, otherwise in today's world, without such rare treasures as natural materials and earthly treasures, how could a place like Luoshui Lake have a little demon with more than 200 years of cultivation?"

Having said that, Bai Luoyu looked at Jiang Ning with envy.

"Brother Jiang is indeed a man of great fortune and luck, able to discover such a treasure by chance."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning nodded in agreement.

“I think I’m really lucky!”

“I wonder what kind of treasure Brother Jiang found at that time that could allow Brother Jiang’s skills to reach such an astonishing level.”

"Thunder Fruit, a hundred-year-old Thunder Fruit!" Jiang Ning said.

"It's such a treasure!!" Bai Luoyu's eyes suddenly revealed deep envy.

He now understood why Jiang Ning's skills at this age were superior to his.

"Hundred-year-old thunder fruit. There was a 150-year-old thunder fruit that appeared at the Wanbao Pavilion auction. It was sold for five thousand taels of gold."

"Five thousand taels of gold?!" Jiang Ning was stunned.

"Yeah!" Bai Luoyu nodded, then smiled: "Do you think this price is exaggerated?"

"Yes!" Jiang Ning nodded slightly: "But it feels a bit exaggerated! Five thousand taels of gold is five million taels of silver. Is the Thunder Fruit so valuable?"

Bai Luoyu said: "Such precious and rare things cannot actually be measured by value! You have to know that Daxia has been the world's ruler for more than 800 years. How many aristocratic families have accumulated wealth for dozens of generations? For them, wealth is almost equivalent to a number."

Hearing this, Jiang Ning immediately understood and nodded in agreement.

In his previous life, the country he lived in had been founded for several decades, and the wealth of the rich had already been exaggerated to a level that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.

The average person earns three to five thousand a month working very hard.

Even if you work for generations and for generations to come, the money you earn will never be as much as the interest earned by the rich.

The Great Xia Dynasty ruled the world for more than 800 years.

The wealth accumulated by those wealthy and powerful families must have reached an unimaginable level.

He immediately understood why the Thunder Fruit could be auctioned at such an outrageous price.

For him, a hundred-year-old Thunder Fruit can increase his martial arts skills by sixty years.

A Jiazi period is sixty years.

A person's life only lasts sixty years.

For people with average talent, this thing can only shorten the accumulation time by a few decades.

But for people with extraordinary talents, that is equivalent to adding decades of time out of thin air.

This is enough to allow a genius who could only achieve the fifth level to quickly accumulate skills and hopefully reach the fourth level, or even the third level as a master.

The genius who can achieve the master level will have the hope of becoming a grand master, or even a level above the grand master.

Considering the effect, although five thousand taels of gold are expensive, it is worth spending.

After all, this is a world where martial arts flourish and personal power belongs to oneself.

A world where one person can dominate the world for more than 800 years.

If a family wants to survive and prosper, it cannot do without the strong martial artists in the family.

Without a strong person in charge, wealth is like delicious meat, and everyone wants to get a piece of it. At this time, the dishes began to be served one after another.

Bai Luoyu suddenly smiled mysteriously.

"Brother Jiang, an important person will be coming over later."

"Big shot?" Jiang Ning showed curiosity on his face: "What kind of person can be called a big shot by Brother Bai?"

Bai Luoyu smiled mysteriously again: "You will never guess!"

Hearing this, Jiang Ning suddenly became even more curious.

Immediately.

Bai Luoyu uttered two words.

"Grandmaster!"

"Grandmaster?" Jiang Ning's eyes flashed with thought: "Grandmaster, could it be..."

"Brother Jiang guessed correctly!" Bai Luoyu smiled and said, "It is the Lord of the Dongling City Inspection Office."

"Brother Bai is right, he is a real big shot!!" Jiang Ning agreed deeply.

After the establishment of the Inspection Office.

In a county, the person with the highest power and status is no longer the county governor, but the head of the county inspection office.

This is because the chief of the County Inspection Office not only has the power to execute first and report later, but is also one of the small group of people at the top of the martial arts pyramid in the county.

Hand with fist and power.

His status is naturally higher than that of the county magistrate.

In Jiang Ning's opinion, only in this kind of world can such an unbalanced organization appear.

His intuition also told him that the establishment of the Inspection Office would not make Daxia better, but might make it worse.

Abuse of power is a situation that can never be avoided.

What's more, in the absence of supervision, how can the inspection personnel be selfless?

At the gate of Bai Mansion.

An ordinary four-wheeled carriage slowly stopped.

Then a middle-aged man in a gray robe slowly got off the carriage.

He raised his head and glanced at the gate of Bai Luoyu's mansion in front of him.

Then he turned around and said to the driver: "Wait for me here!"

"Yes, sir!" The slightly hunchbacked old man driving the car nodded repeatedly.

If an uninformed person saw this scene, he would never imagine that these two seemingly ordinary people were actually some of the most important figures in Dongling City.

"Jiang Ning, his inner energy is as deep as the abyss, and his power is over sixty years. This news is a bit scary!!" Zhao Yulong murmured in his heart as he looked at Bai Luoyu's mansion.

He had just received the news from Bai Luoyu, so he immediately put down his work and came here.

At this age, such exaggerated skills seem a little unbelievable even for him with his wide knowledge.

After all, he knew that Jiang Ning did not come from those top forces, but from an ordinary small county.

In Daxia, there are countless small counties like Luoshui County.

This kind of small county simply doesn't have enough resources to cultivate the world's top martial arts genius.

In the path of martial arts, no matter how talented one is, the assistance of external objects is indispensable.

The path of martial arts is also limited by human power, and many levels require the help of external objects.

“Unbelievable!” As one of the few great masters in Dongling City, Zhao Yulong couldn’t help but shake his head slightly.

immediately.

He raised his legs and walked towards the gate of Bai Luoyu's mansion.

After a while.

backyard.

"Master, the fish is ready!" Two maids came towards the pavilion carrying a tray.

Seeing this, Bai Luoyu immediately smiled.

"I will soon be able to taste the flesh of a fish demon that has practiced Taoism for more than 200 years."

Jiang Ning said: "Brother Bai will definitely not be disappointed!"

"Brother Jiang's words make me even more excited!" Bai Luoyu's face was full of anticipation, and he continued, "According to the records in the book, the monster race has extremely strong physiques. In ancient times, the meat of the monster race was of great benefit to the cultivators who practiced physical training."

"The higher the level of cultivation, the more obvious it is, and the higher the level of cultivation, the better the taste!"

"Two hundred years of practice should be good."

Just now.

Bai Luoyu suddenly turned around and looked towards the archway in the backyard.

"Brother Jiang, it should be the Palace Master who has arrived. Should we go and greet him?"

"Okay!" Jiang Ning nodded.

With his five senses, he had already sensed someone's arrival.

Just now he was only guessing in his mind that the visitor was the Lord of the local Inspection House, one of the few martial arts masters in Dongling County.

Because before this, Bai Luoyu had already told them that Grandmaster Zhao Yulong was coming.

Now that he had received Bai Luoyu's affirmation, Jiang Ning's heart was suddenly filled with anticipation.

Grandmaster!

Apart from Lin Qingyi, the upcoming Zhao Yunlong will be the first grandmaster he has seen with his own eyes.

The two men then stood up.

A maid also hurried over from outside the yard.

"Master, the Lord of the Zhao Mansion is here!"

"Got it!" Bai Luoyu nodded: "Back off!"

"Yes, Master!" The maid immediately stepped aside.

The two came to the backyard door.

It only takes a moment.

A middle-aged man wearing a gray robe, ordinary cloth shoes and an ordinary face appeared in front of the two people.

The wrinkles unique to middle-aged men can be clearly seen on the face of this middle-aged man.

"Bai Luoyu greets the Palace Master!" Bai Luoyu bowed.

Jiang Ning also bowed: "Luoshui County Jiang Ning greets the Palace Master!!"

Immediately, Jiang Ning felt a pair of eyes falling on him, looking him up and down.

"There's no need to be so polite, both of you. Let's skip the red tape!" Zhao Yulong said.

After hearing this, the two of them looked up again.

Jiang Ning immediately saw the approval in Zhao Yulong's eyes.

"Jiang Ning, you are amazing!"

"Thank you for your compliment, sir!" Jiang Ning said politely.

"This is not a compliment!" Zhao Yulong said with emotion: "There are only a few people in this world who I can sincerely say are amazing, and you are one of them!"

Then he added: "I didn't expect that in just two or three days, I would be able to meet two young geniuses who made me say they were amazing."

"Palace Master, who is the other person?" Bai Luoyu was immediately filled with curiosity.

Based on his understanding of Jiang Ning, he didn't find it strange that Zhao Yulong could say the three words "amazing".

In his opinion, if Jiang Ning reached his age, he would definitely be able to surpass his current achievements.

So he was full of curiosity about the other person mentioned by Zhao Yulong.

He has lived for decades and has seen many geniuses with his own eyes.

In terms of talent, he previously thought that Jiang Ning could be ranked among the top few.

Now in his opinion, Jiang Ning can rank first.

It was for this reason that he chose to make friends with Jiang Ning.

In Zhao Yulong's mouth, there are people like Jiang Ning. In the past few days, Zhao Yunlong has also seen people who can be compared with the current Jiang Ning. (End of this chapter)
