C211 The Flames of War Were on the Rise
He was accompanying Zhou Xiyao to enjoy the scenery when Stupid Bo hurriedly walked in and said, "Wang Family's Chief, Wang Jingxiang and Li Family's Chief, Li Yunsong, have come to pay their respects to Third Young Master. Young master, do you want to meet them outside?"
Zhao Yiming nodded and said, "We are all considered fellow villagers. It's good to meet him outside."
Zhou Xiyao smiled and said, "I am also tired on the way here. I will rest here for a while. You have to come back as soon as possible."
Zhao Yiming smiled and touched her hair. He said, "Okay, I know. You can rest here for a while."
Zhao Yiming came to the hall and saw Zhao Yongming talking with two people. He coughed lightly and walked in.
Wang Jingxiang and Li Yunsong quickly stood up and said with a smile on their faces, "Why didn't Young Master Zhao inform us beforehand when he came back? We should greet him."
Zhao Yiming shook his head and said, "Don't be so polite, both of you should be considered my uncle's generation. Sit down and talk!"
After the two of them sat down, they could not help but sigh in their hearts. Who would have thought that the famous trash back then would actually grow to such an extent? Putting aside his reputation, it was precisely this cultivation that they couldn't see through... No matter what, he had to be at the peak of Qi Condensation.
Wang Jingxiang coughed and said, "Third Young Master is indeed a dragon amongst men. I heard that he has already become a true disciple of the White Cloud Valley. His cultivation base will definitely be able to look down on all the other geniuses."
Zhao Yiming shook his head and said, "We will only know how narrow our eyes are when we walk outside. I am merely looking at the sky from the bottom of a well. I am now at the seventh level of the Essence Converting. However, I have seen a dozen people with higher cultivation bases than me. "
When they heard that Zhao Yiming was at the seventh level of the Essence Converting, both of them were shocked in their hearts. Looking at his age and thinking about themselves, it was as if they had lived for a dog at this age.
Li Yunsong said with a smile, "Third Young Master is the glory of our Banyan City. In the history of Banyan City, there has never been a Transformational Stage warrior."
Zhao Yiming knocked on the table with his hand and said, "What's the big deal about my low cultivation? Last time I saw Second Brother, he was already at the ninth level of Essence Converting, and he was very talented. He was reputed to be a rare sword genius that only appeared once in a thousand years. He has already been accepted by the elders of the Profound Sky Sword Sect's Bamboo Peak as a successor disciple. Now, he has changed his name to Jian Chenzi."
Li Yunsong said with a smile on his face," You two brothers are both dragons among men. I think Brother Zhao must be overjoyed to know about this in the spring. "
Wang Jingxiang also said, "On the night of Zhao Family's destruction, the two of us were powerless. We hope that Third Young Master can forgive us for not coming to our rescue."
Zhao Yiming gently waved his hand and said, "There is no need to mention this matter anymore. When the two uncles came, they were just delivering food to them. Who was the murderer? I already know. We will make them pay the price sooner or later. "
Li Yunsong rolled his eyes and said, "I also have a deep suspicion. Why would the Asura Sect come to such a remote town like ours? Come and do such a thing."
Zhao Yiming was about to continue speaking when Stupid Bo walked in and said, "The county governor of Banyan City, Lord Luo Jianxiang, is seeking an audience outside. Young master, do you want to see him?"
Zhao Yiming nodded and said, "Then let him in."
Not long later, they saw a harmonious person who did not have any authority. He walked in quickly and bowed to Zhao Yiming, saying, "The governor of Banyan City, Luo Jianxiang, greets Your Highness."
Zhao Yiming waved his hand and said, "Master Luo, you don't have to be so polite. I'm just a person from the Jianghu. I don't deserve such courtesy from you."
Luo Jianxiang said respectfully, "Your Excellency is a prince with another surname conferred by His Majesty. This Banyan City is a fief bestowed to Your Highness. Your subordinate should be considered your subordinate."
Wang Jingxiang and Li Yunsong could not help being shocked. This was the first time they had heard of such a thing. They did not expect that a joke from Zhao Hu back then would turn into a fiefdom.
Zhao Yiming glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw the expressions of the two. He laughed and said, "Master Luo, don't say that in the future. I, Second Brother, am the Chief of Zhao Family. If the Banyan City is my fiefdom, how can I, Second Brother, behave?
You might not know who I, Second Brother, am. He is the famous Jian Chenzi, the successor disciple of Profound Sky Sword Sect. He will definitely become a major power in the future."
Luo Jianxiang also looked troubled. He said respectfully, "But this is the decree of His Majesty. How could I dare to disobey? If I defy the decree, I will kill my head."
Zhao Yiming said with a smile, "Who said I will disobey the decree? I will officially transfer this piece of land to Zhao Family. From now on, Banyan City will be the entire territory of Zhao Family.
However, the Wang and Li families will enjoy special privileges in the Banyan City. Unless they do something outrageous, no one is allowed to take their property. "
Wang Jingxiang and Li Yunsong were overjoyed. They quickly cupped their hands and said, "Thank you, Third Young Master, for your kindness. We are very grateful. In the future, we are willing to give 20% of our income to the Zhao Family as tax."
Zhao Yiming said without hesitation, "Then it's up to you. However, the property of Zhang Family... No matter who took it, I hope you can spit it out within three days. Since it's in my fief, it belongs to the Zhao Family. "
Li Yunsong said with a smile, "Third Young Master is exactly the same as I thought. At that time, I also planned to safeguard this property for Third Young Master. We have a total of one-third of the property of the Zhang Family, and all of it has been recorded in our records. Third Young Master can take over at any time. "
As he spoke, he took out a few account books from his interspatial Cosmic Bag and handed them to Zhao Yongming. He knew that Zhao Yiming wouldn't bother with such matters.
Wang Jingxiang also quickly said, "I think the same as Chief Lee, but I am calculating the profits during this period of time. After the calculations are done, I will return all of them to Third Young Master."
Zhao Yiming said to Luo Jianxiang, "I heard that all the people from the Zhang Family are being detained. You go back and make some arrangements. I want to see Zhang Wenchang tomorrow and his Chief Think Tank, Tao Wei."
Luo Jianxiang said with some difficulty, "His Royal Highness wants to see Zhang Wenchang. Of course, there is no problem at all. But that Tao Wei killed himself with poison when we captured him."
Zhao Yiming frowned and said, "Then I can't blame you for this. I will go see Zhang Wenchang tomorrow. You must keep an eye on him tonight. If there are any more accidents, I will use you to ask."
Luo Jianxiang quickly nodded and said, "Your Royal Highness, don't worry. I will increase the security."
Zhao Yiming smiled and picked up the tea bowl. The three of them tactfully stood up and said their goodbyes.
Very soon, it was late at night. Zhao Yiming and Zhou Xiyao quietly hid outside the prison. He had a feeling that someone would take the bait.
