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

Soon, Lu Xuan understood what it meant for these Tianlong Gang members to come with sincerity.

At this moment, in the reception room, Xu Jing, Wen Lan, and others were also meeting with an old acquaintance of Lu Xuan.

This familiar face was none other than the Black Dragon Hall Master who had tried to block Lu Xuan from entering the Cloud Peak Manor last time.

His cultivation level is fourth grade.

He is also the only fourth-rank martial artist in the Tianlong Gang to survive.

Lu Xuan did not kill him at the time.

Instead, they spared his life.

Many people may wonder why Lu Xuan didn't eliminate the threat completely.

But that was exactly what Lu Xuan intended.

By sparing the black dragon's life, he could also let the dragon know that Lu Xuan was an insurmountable mountain. In this way, the black dragon would only be more obedient in front of Lu Xuan and would never dare to have any disloyal thoughts.

If you are only slightly stronger than the black dragon, after he is defeated, he might still have some hope that he will get a chance to trample you underfoot.

But when someone realizes the vast difference between themselves and you, like the difference between heaven and earth, they will respect you as if you were a god.

Clearly, that's what the Black Dragon is like.

Having witnessed Lu Xuan's unparalleled strength, they naturally held him in the highest esteem and dared not harbor the slightest thought of overstepping their bounds.

If the Black Dragon doesn't realize this, then for Lu Xuan, it's just a matter of smashing it with a single palm strike.

Lu Xuan entered the reception room.

Xu Jing was sitting in front, with many people sitting on both sides.

But in the middle of the floor, there was another person kneeling.

Black Dragon, who was sitting near the front, turned around and saw Lu Xuan. He quickly stood up to greet him.

"Senior Lu!"

"Thank you for showing mercy that day, Senior Lu!"

"This junior has brought this lad here today specifically to apologize!"

"Hurry up and kowtow to Senior Lu!"

Black Dragon kicked the kneeling man on the ground.

Upon hearing this, the man immediately turned around and knelt on the ground, then kowtowed repeatedly to Lu Xuan.

It is clear that the man had already been severely beaten before he arrived.

This person was the one who went to Zhang's medicine shop to seize the medicinal fields, and he was also the brother-in-law of the Black Dragon Hall Master.

Clearly, in Heilong's view, returning the medicinal herbs did not mean the matter was over.

Since Lu Xuan hasn't agreed yet, it's pointless for you people to say anything.

He needed to see Lu Xuan confess in person for the matter to be truly resolved.

I thought Lu Xuan was from Gu Yun Pharmacy.

However, upon arriving at Guyun Pharmacy, he discovered that Lu Xuan was not an employee of Guyun Pharmacy.

Fortunately, both Xu Jing and Wen Lan were there.

Apologizing to both of them would be the same.

This way, it will be easier for the news to reach Lu Xuan's ears.

Unexpectedly, Lu Xuan also appeared at this moment. What else is there to say? He should quickly apologize.

"Senior...this junior knows his mistake and is willing to accept punishment!"

The man kneeling on the ground spoke with utmost respect.

At this moment, he also realized the terrifying existence he had offended.

Even Lei Tianlong, the gang leader whom he considered almost invincible, couldn't withstand a single move from this old man and was killed on the spot!

With my current strength, how could I possibly be qualified to challenge Lu Xuan?

They actually offended Lu Xuan in that way.

They are simply ignorant of their own limitations.

Thankfully, Senior Lu Xuan was very magnanimous.

They were given a chance to reform; otherwise, everyone would have died.

Lu Xuan glanced at the person kneeling on the ground.

"I'm just here for a casual visit. If you need anything, just tell Manager Xu."

Lu Xuan waved his hand.

They didn't dwell on it.

What kind of status does Lu Xuan have? Why would he bother arguing with a nobody like you?

Hearing Lu Xuan's words, the black dragon was also delighted.

At the same time, I breathed a sigh of relief.

They just put forward many conditions, including future delivery of goods for Gu Yun Pharmacy, security along the way, and assistance in dealing with trouble caused by people in the underworld.

Xu Jing didn't say much in the end, only that she would report to Lu Xuan later, as she couldn't guarantee Lu Xuan's opinion.

Now that Lu Xuan has personally appeared, there is naturally room for things to ease.

As long as Xu Jing is satisfied, then the matter will be resolved peacefully, turning a major issue into a minor one, and a minor one into nothing.

"Manager Xu... Do you have anything to add regarding the Black Dragon Gang's request? Just ask, and we'll definitely meet your needs."

Black Dragon said to Xu Jing.

In her heart, she thought to herself, "You two are really playing games, kicking each other with your left foot and pushing each other with your right. You're clearly a family, yet you're still pushing each other around."

The Heavenly Dragon Gang no longer exists. After Black Dragon took over, he announced that the gang would be renamed the Black Dragon Gang!

They recruited many subordinates, and basically, the original gang members wouldn't wander off, unless they were rivals. After all, if you went to another gang, it would be equivalent to betraying your original gang, and once the Black Dragon Gang gained power, they would definitely come after you.

The issues here are quite complex.

"Do any of you deacons have any further comments?"

Xu Jing looked at the rest of the people in the seats; these were all people she had personally selected and built.

If Xu Jing achieves greater success in the future and expands her business, she will want more manpower.

"The Black Dragon Gang leader's assistance strategies are quite good, but the Black Wind Mountains are frequently inhabited by strange beasts. If the Black Dragon Gang could provide some protection along this stretch of the route..."

After Xu Jing spoke, a steward quickly chimed in, saying that since she had been asked to bring it up, she might as well say it.

To gain more benefits.

Black Dragon sat to the side, sweating profusely as he agreed to each of the deacons' additional requests.

Although these events will cause the Black Dragon Gang to suffer a lot, at least they can ease the tension between them and Lu Xuan.

Perhaps as cooperation deepens in the future, a connection can be established with Lu Xuan. If anything happens, even if Lu Xuan doesn't care about their achievements, he should at least help them out because of their hard work.

It may seem like a loss, but in reality, being able to come into contact with a super strong person like Lu Xuan, suffering a little loss is not a big deal at all.

Heilong agreed to all of them.

Wen Lan walked up to Lu Xuan and then brought out a chair for both Lu Xuan and Liu Qingxue, so that they could sit down.

Thank you.

Liu Qingxue said to Wen Lan.

Wen Lan nodded slightly, and when she looked at Liu Qingxue, she felt that Liu Qingxue had a very special temperament.

Lu Xuan also listened in for a while.

It turns out that the Black Dragon Gang really came with sincerity.

They have also expanded into a new business, similar to bodyguarding.

However, it only provides short-range protection.

The territory established by the Black Dragon Gang is clearly stronger than that of the previous Heavenly Dragon Gang.

The Tianlong Gang only knows how to rob and collect tolls intermittently, since there's more than one road.

Even with your strength, you may not be able to block all paths.

But now that Black Dragon has taken over the gang, he has also directly assigned a large number of people to explore routes in the surrounding area and find shorter and more efficient roads. Moreover, the Black Dragon gang will escort them throughout the journey, greatly improving their safety.

Although tolls are still charged, services are also provided in the process.

Lu Xuan was already feeling sleepy after listening to half of it.

In the past, this kind of way to make money would have sounded exciting, but now Lu Xuan only has the desire to become a top expert.

"Alright, that's all for today."

"The deacons will unify today's content, write it all down, and compile it into a table."

"Yes, sir!"

Xu Jing waved everyone away, and Hei Long also stood up, bowed to Xu Jing and Lu Xuan, and prepared to take his leave.

But just as he was about to leave, the black dragon stopped in his tracks.

"Elder Lu, Manager Xu... has some news, but I'm not sure if it's true."

"But I think it's still necessary to tell you."

"Black Dragon said."

He also glanced at Wen Lan, who had not yet left.

After all, this matter is of great importance.

Heilong wasn't sure if Wen Lan was reliable.

"Deacon Wen is one of our own."

Xu Jing said.

Wen Lan was originally prepared to take her leave, but upon hearing Xu Jing's words, she felt a warmth in her heart and a strong sense of recognition.

"Our informant in Xiping County said... that people from the Golden Light Sect have been seen at the Ancient Cloud Pharmacy in Xiping County these past two days."

"Isn't the manager of that pharmacy over there named Xue Zhongfa? That guy bought several sets of flying fire guns from the black market."

"Black Dragon said."

Jin Guangmen, Xue Zhongfa, and the purchased flying fire guns!?

When these words are strung together, they are quite surprising.

Even Xu Jing's eyes twitched when she heard about the Flying Fire Gun.

Lu Xuan, who had been pretending to sleep with his eyes closed, also slightly opened them.

"What is a flying fire gun?"

"Replying to Elder Lu, the Flying Fire Gun is a heavy firearm that can instantly unleash energy."

"Moreover, this kind of flying fire gun can lock onto your aura at close range. Even if you use your movement techniques, you are still easily hit by the power of that flying fire gun."

Lu Xuan nodded in understanding after hearing this.

"So that's how it is."

"A set of flying fire spears is worth at least a thousand spirit stones."

"It seems Xue Zhongfa is planning something."

Xu Jing and Lu Xuan exchanged a glance.

As for what actions to take, those are quite obvious.

They were clearly after Xu Jing and Lu Xuan.

Therefore, this intelligence is indeed very important.

To everyone's surprise, Xue Zhongfa, the head of a pharmacy in the county, actually colluded with the Golden Light Sect to murder his own head.

This is clearly a case of betraying one's own people.

Perhaps it doesn't count as betraying the country.

The other party must have received authorization from someone at a higher level to do this.

Otherwise, Xue Zhongfa alone wouldn't have had the audacity to do such a thing.

After all, if something really goes wrong by doing this, Xue Zhongfa will inevitably be criticized by his superiors.

The Xu family is not solely ruled by Xu Wangshan.

"Black Dragon Gang Leader, you're a smart man."

"Old Master Lu spared your life; you should know what you should do, right?"

Upon learning this news, Xu Jing simply stopped pretending.

He glanced indifferently at the black dragon.

When Heilong heard Xu Jing's words, his heart skipped a beat.

He knew that things weren't that simple.

Lu Xuan spared his life, not because he was handsome.

It's not because he's incapable, but because he's smart enough to know what he should and shouldn't do.

Now that all the outsiders have left, leaving only him here, he has brought Lu Xuan out again.

Black Dragon naturally guessed that Xu Jing was about to reveal some things she truly wanted him to do.

"clear……"

"Old Master Lu spared my life; he is my savior!"

"From now on, everything will be done according to Elder Lu's and Steward Xu's instructions!"

Black Dragon gritted his teeth and said it anyway.

They didn't pretend to be ignorant.

Such self-righteous behavior is more likely to be disliked.

A hint of satisfaction appeared in Xu Jing's sharp eyes.

"That's good. It's an honor for you to work under Elder Lu."

"It will also be the best decision you ever made in your life."

Xu Jing said.

Then he tapped on the table.

"If I remember correctly, Xue Zhongfa is going to transport all the golden thread grass he has collected to the Golden Light Sect the day after tomorrow."

"It will pass through the Seven Clouds Mountain Range."

"With your methods, you can steal the items and then hand them over to the Seven Clouds Alliance. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"

Xu Jing said calmly.

Is it golden thread grass again?

Xu Jing ordered him to seize Xue Zhongfa and collect all the Golden Thread Grass that was about to be delivered to the Golden Light Sect!?

That's a brilliant idea.

If Xue Zhongfa's medicinal herbs are stolen...

They certainly wouldn't be able to deliver on their promise to the Golden Gate.

No matter how good your relationship is, the Golden Light Sect will never pay attention to you again.

We have to get these things back no matter what.

After his belongings were stolen, Xue Zhongfa had essentially gotten himself into serious trouble.

At this point, even Xue Zhongfa might not be able to keep his position as the head of the prefectural branch.

Of course, all of this requires a triggering condition, which is to steal these goods.

Then hide it.

Clearly, it is most appropriate for the Black Dragon Gang to do these things.

He was originally a bandit.

Doing these things now is a piece of cake.

As for whether you're not confident or whether you can do it?

Then Lu Xuan will make a move and smash your head in.

Heilong understood the stakes involved.

He immediately gritted his teeth slightly.

"good!"

"Leave this to us, the Black Dragon Gang!"

"Please rest assured, sir. Please rest assured, Elder Lu!"

Black Dragon cupped his hands in greeting.

Xu Jing nodded in satisfaction.

"Black Dragon, you probably don't know yet."

"Elder Lu is a fourth-grade alchemist."

"If things are handled well, I will ask Elder Lu for credit for you."

After seeing that Heilong agreed, Xu Jing dropped another bombshell.

When Black Dragon heard this, he suddenly looked up, a look of shock flashing in his eyes.

"What!?"

The black dragon looked at Lu Xuan, its heart filled with shock and disbelief.

Not only is Elder Lu incredibly powerful, but he is also a fourth-grade alchemist!

If you serve them well, won't they rise to prominence overnight?

"Don't worry, Elder Lu, even if I, Heilong, have to climb mountains of knives or plunge into boiling oil, I will resolutely complete this mission!"

"We will absolutely not let Elder Lu down!"

"Black Dragon said excitedly."

At this moment, Heilong truly realized how rare such an opportunity was.

"Well... from now on, Xu Jing's words will be my words."

"I'll know how you perform."
