Hongmeng Evil Lord

Chapter 174
If Zhang Mo knew that it was not two people who defeated all the martial artists, but only one person, a woman, would he vomit blood and die on the spot!

Now that the enemy has attacked the door, there is no other way, Zhang Mo can only escape.

But fortunately, he arranged for a backup, and he believed that no matter how powerful those two Shuyang clan members were, they would not be able to escape.

Reminiscent of the promise made by the high-ranking person in the town's frontier army, Zhang Mo felt much more at ease.

So under the cover of his trusted servant, Zhang Mo slipped away through the back door.

……

After entering the inner courtyard, he arrested several servants of the Zhang family, and finally found out where Zhou Ya'er was being held.Third Young Master Feng ran directly, and after a lot of twists and turns, he finally rescued Zhou Ya'er from the cellar where she was held.

When the two bitter lovers met, they burst into tears.

It's not easy, it's really not easy!
They lived and died several times, and escaped several times. Both of them cared about each other and missed each other. It was almost eaten by the ancient water beast.

If it weren't for the love of missing each other in their hearts that supported them to persevere, I'm afraid they would have collapsed or died long ago.

"Brother Feng... I knew that you would definitely come to save me!"

Zhou Ya'er supported her sweetheart's body, tears streaming down like rain.

Third Young Master Feng stroked her cheek distressedly, and said, "I'm sorry, girl, for making you suffer!"

"Woooo..."

Zhou Ya'er became a tearful person, which seemed to add a bit of poignancy.

Guo Mu stood beside him, smiling slightly, sincerely happy for his friend's hard-earned happiness.

Because they have two strong backers, Koshihikari and Harushin, they are not planning to leave in a hurry.

……

Yueguang and Qingxin arrested many servants of the Zhang family, but they got a result that made them even more furious.

That is, the person in charge of this family did not obediently stay and accept their punishment, but ran away secretly.

Could it be that he really thought that the Shuyang Sect was so easy to deal with?
Could it be that Shuyangzong didn't dare to destroy his Zhang family?
In this world, no matter how powerful a family is and how many warriors it has, if the enemy they encounter is a sky warrior whose realm far surpasses them, then the so-called power of these families will be in vain.

The same goes for the Zhang family.

Even though the Zhang family bullied ordinary people and did some unconscionable things by relying on their power and the mysterious background behind them, no one dared to resist them, so that the Zhang family became the local overlord in the White Lake City area.

However, when Qingxin and Koshihikari decided to use the Zhang family as a knife to establish the sacred and inviolable image of Shuyangzong.The Zhang family turned into a soft-legged shrimp. Groups of warriors couldn't get close to the two of them at all, and the warriors they relied on in the past had already gone to Huangquan Road together.

As for the government?

It's even more ridiculous, the officers and soldiers of the government are just people who are slightly stronger than ordinary people, they are not even as good as the warriors supported by the Zhang family, and letting them come is just to die.

With the power and influence of Shuyangzong, even the government would not easily offend him.

The parents of Baihu City were as anxious as ants on a hot pot. He dared not offend anyone, not the Shuyang Sect, nor the Zhang family...even more so.Forced to have no choice but to take all the officers and soldiers under his command, he surrounded Zhang's mansion tightly.Most of the Zhang family escaped, and there were still some people in power who were being interrogated by Yueguang.

Yueguang wanted to find out who ordered the martial artist to kill them.

As a well-known orthodox sect, although you can act a little arrogantly, you can't be too cruel.To really destroy the Zhang family, Koshihikari and Qingxin would not do it.

But the person behind the scenes must be found out, otherwise, they will never let it go.

……

But at this time, the so-called behind-the-scenes person, Zhang Mo from his hometown, was walking on the road leading to the town's border army station in disguise.

"You bastards of the Shuyang Sect, I must make you pay the price."

Being forced to escape made Zhang Mo feel ashamed and annoyed.At his age, nothing is as important as face.Thinking about how majestic and majestic he was when he killed all directions, but now, he was scared by two young people and slipped through the back door, how shameless and not angry.

When he arrived at the military camp at the edge of the town, he would definitely ask that high-ranking man to send a large number of martial artists to eliminate those two Shuyang Sect bastards.

He quickened his pace, and an hour later, Zhang Mo had arrived at the town's border army barracks.

After being informed by the soldiers, Zhang Mo was allowed to enter.

The town border army was very strict. As soon as he entered the camp, Zhang Mo felt a strong killing atmosphere. Of course, he knew that this killing atmosphere was not aimed at him, nor was it cultivated by some strong man.Instead, the murderous aura of countless town border army officers and soldiers gathered together, making the town border army camp seem to have a strong murderous aura, making people breathless.

But it was just like this that Zhang Mo felt very safe, because it meant that the big man behind him had enough strength to help him.

The soldiers took him to a larger tent and left.Zhang Mo glanced at the tent, took a deep breath, and walked in.

As soon as he entered the door, a familiar voice sounded.

"Hahaha, Patriarch Zhang, please stay safe."

Zhang Mo looked up, and saw a handsome middle-aged man in casual clothes, sitting by the desk.Seeing him coming in, he stopped the pen in his hand and smiled freely.

Without further ado, Zhang Mo immediately knelt down.

"Craftsman Zhang Mo, see the Eighth Prince."

The middle-aged man waved his hand and smiled slightly: "You and this king have been friends for many years, there is no need to be so formal, get up."

"Thank you Eighth Prince."

Zhang Mo breathed a sigh of relief. Although the man in front of him was much younger than him, Zhang Mo knew a lot about the latter over the years.

There are two kings in the town border army, one is the heir of today's son, the third prince named Xia You, and the other king is the eighth prince Xia Jiulian in front of Zhang Mo.Xia You, Zhang Mo only heard his name, but didn't know who he was.But Xia Jiulian and Zhang Mo are old partners.

What partner?
Naturally, Xia Jiulian sheltered Zhang Mo, and Zhang Mo paid the offerings on time and according to the amount every year.

Because of this reason, Xia Jiulian would never watch Zhang Mo's family die, which meant that he himself lost a huge fortune.

The Zhang family plundered people's fat and people's anointing every day, and finally accumulated wealth that ordinary people would never dare to imagine in their lifetime. Moreover, White Lake City has developed businesses, and there are many foreign businessmen. Keeping Zhang Mo is equivalent to keeping a gold mine.

Even, better than a gold mine, lasting benefits.

"The king read your letter, um... this king has thought about this matter for a while, and the help can help you, but the Shuyang sect is not as easy to deal with as you imagined, and it is difficult to explain the people who moved them... "Xia Jiu patted Zhang Mo on the shoulder and said.

How could Zhang Mo not know that Xia Jiulian was setting the price on the ground. Fortunately, he was prepared, and hurriedly said: "As long as the Eighth Prince is willing to make a move, my Zhang family will pay [-]% more taxes in the future!"

Xia Jiulian's eyes lighted up, don't underestimate the [-]%, even if it is only [-]%, the amount of silver donated by the Zhang family is enough for a dozen or so ordinary people to live for a lifetime, without worrying about food and drink.

but……

What Xia Jiulian wanted was not just [-]%.

Xia Jiulian shook his head: "Well, the military budget is tight recently... If you send someone to help you, you will have to pay extra. My king's money has been trapped by the army, I'm afraid..."

Zhang Mo gritted his teeth: "Then I'll add another 3000 taels of gold!"

Sure enough, the rich and powerful, 3000 taels of gold, the entire Xiaqiu country, with billions of people, who can casually open their mouths and take out 3000 taels of gold, I am afraid that among the merchants, there are no more than ten.

It seems that the Zhang family has made a lot of money from occupying the commercial city on the border over the years!
"This..." Xia Jiulian deliberately dragged out his voice, as if he was still dissatisfied.

Zhang Mo cursed in his heart, damn it, if he didn't need to rely on Xia Jiulian now, he would never come to see this greedy guy.

finally……

Zhang Mo still made up his mind: "Then add 5000 taels!"

Xia Jiulian narrowed his eyes: "Add [-]% of the annual contribution."

Hearing this, Zhang Mo's eyes almost went dark. Fifty percent, plus the original silver taels that needed to be donated, the amount of money that would be given to Xia Jiulian every year was an astronomical figure.Even if the Zhang family has a big business, they can't afford it!
If it was in the past, Xia Jiulian would never have made trouble like this...

Why, now it's like this...

Zhang Mo is not an idiot, and when he thinks about it, his hair stands on end!

Xia Jiulian actually planned to annex his Zhang family!
why?
What exactly is this for?
Zhang Mo didn't know, but he also understood at this moment that if he didn't agree, it would only strengthen Xia Jiulian's determination to annex the Zhang family.Forced to do so, Zhang Mo just nodded, expressing that he agreed with Xia Jiulian's proposal.

Xia Jiulian smiled happily.

Zhang Mo's mood suddenly sank to the bottom.

……

"Young man Luo, come in."

Ignoring Zhang Mo's ugly face, Xia Jiulian suddenly spoke, and after he finished speaking, a person walked in from outside the tent.
