I'm seventy years old this year, and you want me to have many children and much happiness?

By the afternoon...

Wen Lan has already brought back the intelligence.

The leader of the Tianlong Gang happens to be celebrating his sixtieth birthday at the Yunding Manor outside Jinyuan City today.

The people invited by these gangs and thugs are basically all bandits and outlaws.

It's estimated that the various gangs in the vicinity have also sent a lot of people there.

"What a coincidence, it's even a half-birthday banquet?"

"Looks like there's going to be some interesting talk."

"Wait here for me. I'm going to the city lord's mansion to see if I can get some legal paperwork done."

Lu Xuan said.

This Cloud Peak Manor is now a den of bandits; the more people there are, the bolder they become.

However, Lu Xuan would not give the other party a chance to act recklessly. He would first go and see if there was any opportunity to get an arrest warrant or something, so that he would have a legitimate reason when he went on a killing spree.

Having a legitimate reason for your actions is the most important thing.

Lu Xuan then went to the city lord's mansion.

Yi Shuhe is not in the city today, but Xiao Yunshan is.

Upon hearing Lu Xuan's words, Xiao Yunshan immediately wrote a note for Lu Xuan without saying a word.

Xiao Yunshan had originally planned to bring people to help.

But Lu Xuan rejected him.

After all, this matter was handled on behalf of Gu Yun Pharmacy. If it involved the government, Xiao Yunshan himself would not be able to extricate himself from the situation, and it didn't come to that extent.

If Xiao Yunshan could make things easier in the end, Lu Xuan would naturally agree.

There is no need for that at this time.

If Lu Xuan doesn't agree, then Xiao Yunshan will have no choice but to give up.

"Don't worry, Elder Lu. Lei Tianlong of the Tianlong Gang is a wanted criminal by the imperial court. Once he's caught, he can be dealt with as he sees fit without any problems!"

"And those dens of thieves, if anyone dares to step forward, Elder Lu can take them down directly, and I'll issue you a warrant."

Xiao Yunshan said.

Hearing Xiao Yunshan's words, Lu Xuan nodded in relief.

"Okay, if that's the case, then I'm relieved."

Lu Xuan chuckled.

With that statement, what else did Lu Xuan have to worry about?

Afterwards, Lu Xuan returned to the Ancient Cloud Pharmacy and gave Xu Jing a copy of the prescription for the Void Awakening Pill, asking her to find someone to help him collect it.

"Send someone back home and tell them I'm going out for a bit."

"Okay, I'll make the arrangements right away."

Xu Jing nodded, feeling somewhat excited as well.

Seeing that Lu Xuan had brought back the bounty order, he realized that with the government's support, things would be much easier.

At the same time, they were also surprised by Lu Xuan's thoughtfulness.

We need to send someone back to inform the ladies about this matter.

Unlike many people who disappear at the drop of a hat and don't leave a trace for half a day.

Sometimes, no one even knows if someone has died outside.

After Xu Jing finished making the arrangements.

They took Wen Lan with them on the trip.

Wen Lan was also very surprised, and at the same time, she was also a little excited.

After all, Xu Jing was willing to take her along to negotiate such a big matter, which shows that Xu Jing values ​​her highly.

But at the same time, what excited Wen Lan even more was...

Finally, I can go and see the big scenes.

Although Wen Lan appears quiet and cold on the outside, she is quite wild inside and has a desire to be crazy.

"Steward Wang, aren't Steward Xu and the others being a bit too rash in doing this?"

"That's the Tianlong Gang. If we really offend them, our lives in Jinyuan City won't be so easy from now on."

The Tianlong Gang controls many key transportation routes.

If the Tianlong Gang were to specifically target and rob their goods, it would have a very significant impact on their Jinyuan City branch.

This is why ordinary merchants dare not easily offend the Tianlong Gang, and even if they can befriend them, they try their best not to offend them.

If they are truly offended, their future days will be difficult.

"Hmph, do you really think we'll have a good life even if we don't offend the Heavenly Dragon Gang?"

"I have faith in Manager Xu's abilities; she can handle it."

Wang Maocai said.

He still trusted Xu Jing a lot in these matters.

Even if you don't trust Xu Jing, you still have to trust Lu Xuan.

Lu Xuan's strength is unmatched.

These people all arrived later, so they didn't know Lu Xuan's strength, but Wang Maocai had absolute faith in Lu Xuan's abilities.

With Lu Xuan involved, the matter is basically settled.

Therefore, all Wang Maocai needs to do is focus on his own tasks, and that will be enough.

"Understood."

The deacon nodded and said.

Yunding Mountain Villa is located about 200 miles outside Jinyuan City, on Yunding Mountain.

The entire Yunding Mountain is like a unique mountain peak, and there is only one road to get up there.

It is a place that is quite easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Because of the urgency, Lu Xuan used his abilities halfway through the journey to lift the heavy carriage and dash forward.

They easily passed through places where they would have had to take detours.

What should have been a two-hour journey was completed in just half an hour.

"Cloud Peak Mountain is just ahead."

Wen Lan opened the carriage curtain and took a peek.

When Wen Lan saw Lu Xuan pull the carriage into the air, she was truly shocked. Lu Lao's strength was simply too terrifying.

There were two other people in the car.

But judging from Lu Xuan's calm and composed demeanor, he was clearly in complete control.

Wen Lan also didn't know Lu Xuan's exact strength.

They came along now purely out of trust in Xu Jing's leadership.

Otherwise, she wouldn't dare to attempt such a risky undertaking.

With Wen Lan's looks, if she fell into a bandit's den, she would definitely suffer inhuman treatment.

Therefore, Wen Lan herself is also very vigilant.

She came along because she trusted Xu Jing.

After all, Xu Jing, who was in charge, was more beautiful and attractive than her.

creak creak.

The carriage arrived at the foot of Yunding Mountain.

Suddenly, several figures jumped out from the bushes and blocked the road.

"Stop! What are you doing!"

Today is the birthday banquet of the leader of the Tianlong Gang. Most of the people who came are from the underworld, but the necessary checks still need to be carried out. Not just any random person can be let in.

"Xu Jing, the manager of Guyun Pharmacy in Jinyuan City, has come to pay his respects to the gang leader."

Xu Jing lifted the carriage curtain, revealing her appearance, and said.

When the robbers saw Xu Jing's beautiful appearance, they immediately revealed lewd smiles.

"Wow, what a beautiful woman!"

"Let me check if you're carrying any weapons!"

"I want to check too, let me check as well..."

As they spoke, the two prepared to get started.

The next moment, Lu Xuan flicked his long whip.

Snapped!

What was originally just an ordinary riding whip has now become like an incomparably sharp knife.

"puff!"

The outstretched hands of the two were cut off simultaneously.

"what……"

The two men cried out in terror when they saw their hands being easily severed by Lu Xuan.

"My hand!"

"You bastard, you chopped off my hand!"

"Kill him!"

"Someone come quickly and help me bandage this up."

The two men with severed hands roared in panic.

"Anyone who dares to move will be killed by this old man."

Lu Xuan's aura trembled slightly, and Yuan Gang power surged around his body.

A fourth-grade expert!

Although these members of the Tianlong Gang were just mountain bandits, they at least had some sense of what was going on.

Because their leader is a fourth-rank expert.

The gang leader had also told them that if they encountered a fourth-rank expert, they must not offend him. If they did offend him, they should deal with it themselves and not go after him.

Even a martial arts school like the Rift Sky Martial Arts Academy is extremely cautious and dares not make an enemy of a fourth-rank expert.

Not to mention the Tianlong Gang.

If these subordinates are not restrained, then provoking one or two people might still leave them with some chance of survival, but once they provoke too many, even the leader of the Tianlong Gang will not be able to bear the consequences.

"A fourth-grade expert!"

"You are a fourth-grade expert..."

Several members of the Tianlong Gang were too shocked to speak after witnessing this scene.

The two men whose hands had been severed were now sweating profusely.

Just now, they actually thought they could act presumptuously in front of a fourth-rank expert.

"My...sir, what are your orders...?"

Upon seeing Lu Xuan unleash the aura of a fourth-grade expert, the gang members softened, and their attitudes became very friendly.

"Go and report, you lead the way."

Lu Xuan casually pointed to someone and told that person to go and report.

This time, it was Guyun Pharmacy that came to negotiate.

The other person was the guide.

"As for you two, pick up your hands and get out."

Lu Xuan glanced at the two men whose hands had been severed.

The sword energy from his whip strike left some residue on the wounds, so it was impossible to reattach their severed hands.

With both hands severed, these two must be having a very difficult time.

The good days are over.

While a single, swift kill may be satisfying, this kind of torment allows them to experience true pain and regret.

This can be considered the price they paid for their usual arrogance.

As for whether these people want revenge?

Ha ha.

If you can save your life from the clutches of a fourth-rank expert, then you should cherish and live a good life.

Thinking about other things is just asking for trouble.

"Thank you, sir, for sparing my life..."

"Thank you, sir..."

The two men with missing arms suddenly knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Xuan and the carriage.

See that?

They should thank us.

A member of the Tianlong Gang led the way, and Lu Xuan drove the carriage up the mountain, following the mountain road directly towards Yunding Manor.

Meanwhile, another gang member quickened his pace and ran towards the gang leader's birthday banquet. The news of a fourth-rank expert's visit was quite significant.

"Guild Leader...Guild Leader..."

"A few people came down the mountain, claiming to be from the Guyun Pharmacy in Jinyuan City and want to see you."

The gang member jogged into the brightly lit banquet hall and approached a well-dressed, burly old man, speaking in a low voice.

"Gu Yun Pharmacy? What kind of scum dares to come before me?"

Lei Tianlong, the leader of the Tianlong Gang, frowned.

"I have important business to attend to today, and I will not see anyone."

Now that he is celebrating his 60th birthday, he has invited friends from the underworld to his gathering. Over the years, the Tianlong Gang has grown to its current size thanks to the mutual help of friends from the underworld.

Such good conditions can only be created when everyone gets along harmoniously.

They won't end up killing each other.

The current leader of the Tianlong Gang holds a very high position in the bandit world.

Lei Tianlong gathered so many people here tonight not only to celebrate his birthday.

There is another purpose.

That means they want to form a gang alliance.

Only in this way can we extend our reach into other people's territory.

How much profit can they make by staying hidden near Jinyuan City?

We still need to take a long-term view.

Having gathered all the gangs, big and small, from the surrounding area for such a rare opportunity, this was the perfect time to discuss an alliance, and they certainly didn't want to be interrupted by other matters.

"Chief...they have a fourth-grade expert among them!"

The messenger quickly replied.

The significance of a fourth-grade expert is completely different.

Despite the Tianlong Gang's arrogance, they actually only have four true fourth-rank masters.

One gang leader, three hall masters.

Only these four are truly of the fourth rank.

The number of fourth-rank masters from other gangs is even smaller.

"Oh?"

There was a hint of seriousness in Lei Tianlong's eyes.

At this moment, a middle-aged man dressed in black stood up next to Lei Tianlong.

"Boss, today is your big day, let me handle this."

The leader of the Black Dragon Hall, nicknamed Black Dragon.

Lei Tianlong glanced at the black dragon, then nodded.

"Alright, go and deal with him. Don't offend him, and don't let us lose face!"

Lei Tianlong said.

He had a general idea of ​​what Gu Yun Pharmacy was up to.

He was naturally aware of the situation at Zhang Family Pharmacy.

Such matters must go through his hands; otherwise, the people below wouldn't dare to act recklessly.

They probably don't know where this Guyun Pharmacy got a fourth-grade martial artist from, and they're thinking of negotiating with Lei Tianlong.

Little did they know, Lei Tianlong was no ordinary person.

Tonight he's going to become the leader of the alliance.

Even if you are an ordinary fourth-rank expert, you won't catch Lei Tianlong's eye.

It's good that Black Dragon was able to get rid of the people.

So as not to spoil my mood.

"Understood!"

Heilong clasped his hands in a fist salute, then stepped out and walked outside.

After the black dragon left, Lei Tianlong stood up and tapped the glass in his hand.

"Thank you all for coming."

"As many of you probably already know, the reason we invited everyone here this time is not only to drink and eat meat."

"I would also like to discuss with you all something of great importance, which concerns the life and death of all our gangs."

"As you all probably know, the people in the Seven Clouds Mountains have also formed an alliance, calling themselves the Seven Clouds Alliance."

"The fact that these people are forming an alliance at this time clearly reveals their intentions; they are undoubtedly targeting us!"

"Therefore, I propose that we should also form an alliance, and strike first to swallow up the Seven Clouds Alliance."

"I wonder what you, esteemed leaders, think?"

Lei Tianlong's deep voice echoed throughout the venue.

Everyone who heard this was shocked.

Sure enough, that old man had no good intentions either.

What do you think?

Now that we've sat down and drunk this glass of wine, doesn't that mean only one thing?

"The Seven Clouds Alliance was clearly formed to target us."

"I propose we form an alliance! Leader Lei will be our leader, and we'll fight the Seven Clouds Alliance!"

"Great idea, I think it's a good suggestion!"

"That's great, Chief Lei, you must lead us!"
