Seeing that Xuan Yuanzhan was interested, Zhang Debiao was happy to introduce him: "There is another special faction, Liuying Village. Liuying Village is located outside the northern border of Dongchu, at the border with the Northern Rong. Although the geographical location is special, the leader of Liuying Village, Bai Ying, is from our northern lands, and the bandits of Liuying Village are also from our Dongchu. Their activities are not limited to outside the northern borders. They also rob in the northern lands and the Northern Rong without hesitation!"
Xuanyuan Zhan raised an eyebrow slightly, showing interest in this Flowing Eagle Village.
What kind of place is Beirong?
The Northern Rong were located at the border between Eastern Chu and Northern Wei. It was said that the Northern Wei were all tall, strong, and brave warriors. The Northern Rong were no less formidable.
The Northern Rong are not a state; like the Southern Frontier, they are tribes. However, the Northern Rong's territory is more expansive than that of the Southern Frontier. Both the Northern Rong and the Southern Frontier are communal, but one is similar to a grassland tribe, while the other is similar to a rainforest tribe.
Because the Northern Rong were located between the two powerful states of Eastern Chu and Northern Wei, a formidable fighting force was absolutely essential for them to survive in the gap between these two powerful states.
The Northern Rong are so powerful, yet the Flowing Eagle Stronghold can still raid them from time to time, which shows that the Flowing Eagle Stronghold is no ordinary force!
Xuan Yuanzhan became interested in Bai Ying, the leader of Liuying Village, but since he had come to Yinhu Village, he believed that he would naturally have a chance to meet Bai Ying.
After Zhang Debiao finished speaking, he added, "However, we didn't include Liuying Village in this big deal. It's because they're not in our northern territory, and that White Eagle has never liked to associate with us. We'll just exclude Liuying Village from this big deal."
Zhang Debiao's words made Xuan Yuanzhan's eyes suddenly darken.
It seems there's more to this big deal than meets the eye!
He's determined to venture into this deep pool and see who's human and who's ghost!
Everyone's horses were fast, and in no time, Zhang Debiao led Xuanyuan Zhan to the foot of their Weihu Mountain: "Our stronghold is up there. If the horses can't go up, we can just keep them at the foot of the mountain."
As he spoke, Zhang Debiao dismounted, leaving the horse behind.
Xuanyuan Zhan also dismounted, but touched his horse with concern.
Zhang Debiao then noticed Xuanyuan Zhan's horse, his eyes lighting up as he exclaimed, "Third Brother, this horse is quite nice!"
Located in the northern border region, Beidi is not far from the Northern Rong, whose horses are renowned for their quality. Many famous Akhal-Teke horses originate from Beidi, so he can tell the quality of a horse.
This horse is clearly a fine horse, no less impressive than the Akhal-Teke.
Xuanyuan Zhan did not respond.
His Lightning was undoubtedly a fine horse. Although he didn't know what breed his Lightning was, he had found it in the wild and tamed it for three whole months before turning it into his mount.
His lightning speed not only surpasses that of the Akhal-Teke horse, capable of traveling a thousand miles a day, but it is also exceptionally steady and understands his words and body language. It has long been more than just his mount; it has become his devoted companion.
Zhang Debiao could tell that Xuanyuan Zhan cared about his horse, and laughed, "Don't worry, it won't get lost if you leave it here. Someone will come to feed them in a little while."
Xuanyuan Zhan was naturally not afraid of losing his lightning bolt, nor could he lose it.
"Let's go." Zhang Debiao led Xuan Yuanzhan and Ye Yun up Mount Weihu.
"The boss!"
As you ascend the mountain from the foot, you'll encounter numerous bandits who respectfully bow to Zhang Debiao.
Zhang Debiao pointed to Xuan Yuanzhan, who was standing behind him: "This is your new third leader!"
The bandit guards were all stunned.
The new third leader?
Didn't they already have a third leader? Why is there another third leader?
However, since the leader had already spoken, they dared not ask any more questions and bowed to Xuan Yuanzhan, saying, "Third Leader."
Xuanyuan Zhan didn't care whether they bowed or not; he hadn't come to Silver Tiger Stronghold to become a bandit.
Throughout the journey, Zhang Debiao earnestly introduced Xuan Yuanzhan. Perhaps this third leader changed frequently, and the bandits seemed quite used to it.
As soon as the group reached the mountainside, Xuan Yuanzhan saw the bamboo plaque of the stronghold. The large sign "Silver Tiger Stronghold" came into view. Behind the gate was the Silver Tiger Stronghold. The stronghold looked very large, with many bamboo houses, and there seemed to be quite a few bandits inside.
"Third brother, this is Silver Tiger Stronghold." Zhang Debiao enthusiastically introduced Silver Tiger Stronghold to Xuan Yuanzhan.
Xuanyuan Zhan raised an eyebrow noncommittally and said nothing.
The more silent Xuan Yuanzhan remained, the less Zhang Debiao dared to offend him.
He always felt that this kid was very mysterious. If it weren't for that big deal, he really wouldn't have dared to bring him to Silver Tiger Village!
Who can blame him for having such high martial arts skills? With him around, that big business deal will definitely be twice as successful with half the effort!
"Let's go, let's go inside and take a look."
With this thought in mind, Zhang Debiao became even more enthusiastic and led Xuan Yuanzhan into Silver Tiger Stronghold.
"Boss." The bandits greeted Zhang Debiao and saluted when they saw him return.
Zhang Debiao looked at the bandit and said, "Where is the second-in-command?"
"The second-in-command is in the main hall, isn't he?"
Zhang Debiao nodded and then instructed, "Go and summon all the brothers of our Silver Tiger Stronghold to the main hall. I have something to announce."
"yes."
The bandit responded and went to call for reinforcements.
“Let’s go to the main hall first, and I’ll introduce you to my second brother.”
Zhang Debiao led Xuanyuan Zhan to the main hall.
A man was pacing anxiously in the main hall. When he saw Zhang Debiao return, he rushed forward and asked anxiously, "Brother! Someone just reported that Lao San was killed. Is it true?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Debiao frowned, fearing that Xuan Yuanzhan would be angry, and quickly raised his hand to signal the man to stop talking: "Let's not talk about this now, let me introduce you to someone."
As Zhang Debiao spoke, he gestured to the man and introduced him to Xuan Yuanzhan: "Zhao Wanqing, the second-in-command of our Silver Tiger Stronghold."
Zhao Wanqing then noticed Xuan Yuanzhan following behind Zhang Debiao. When he saw Xuan Yuanzhan's god-like handsome face, Zhao Wanqing was stunned.
It wasn't until Zhang Debiao pointed at Xuan Yuanzhan and introduced him: "Su Zhan, our new third leader of Silver Tiger Stronghold!"
...It took Zhao Wanqing a while to process what had happened. He looked at Xuan Yuanzhan in disbelief, then frowned at Zhang Debiao: "Brother, are you kidding me? This pretty boy can be the third leader of our Silver Tiger Stronghold?"
What gives him the right?
Based on his beautiful face?
Seeing that Zhao Wanqing dared to look down on Xuan Yuanzhan, Zhang Debiao quickly winked at him, signaling, "You don't know anything, don't talk nonsense!"
What kind of pretty boy is he? What if he angers this kid and he gets killed with a single sword stroke? Then he'll have to find another second-in-command.
No, he's dead. So this kid has leveled up and should go find a new third-in-command.
Bah, bah, bah, what's the point of looking for a second or third leader? The big business is more important!
"What do you mean I don't know?" Zhao Wanqing didn't understand the look Zhang Debiao was giving him at all.
Unable to reveal his embarrassing secret in public, Zhang Debiao had no choice but to pull Zhao Wanqing aside and whisper, "What do you know? He's the one who killed Lao San..."
Before Zhang Debiao could finish speaking, Zhao Wanqing exclaimed excitedly, "What? This pretty boy killed Lao San!"
