The town is not big, but Goatbeard moves very fast.
I searched most of the streets in an afternoon, but still couldn't find the hidden master of the middle stage of the Supreme Realm.
"Most of the supreme beings in the city have been bribed. Even if he is hiding something against us, it won't change the outcome."
Goatbeard thought about it and decided to stay in the city and wait for the variable to appear.
It would be best if the opponent does not show up. If he does, he will deal with him personally. It would also be good if he can delay the opponent.
After taking a look around, Goatee also discovered a lot of things.
The Liu family began to shrink their territory, and many shops closed. Even in the bustling areas of the city, people were quiet.
The atmosphere in the city was very tense.
Obviously, the people in the city also realized that the storm was coming.
"Huh~ So many people don't want to escape, but still want to rely on the Zhou and Liu families? They can't protect you."
Shang Yanghu shook his head, climbed up the tallest tree in the city and lay down.
That night, many families in the city came to the Liu and Zhou families.
Didn't get any useful information.
By the time all the guests had left, it was already late at night.
Liu Xiu leaned back in his chair, his mind wandering.
I always feel like I forgot something today.
"Liu Xiu, if you have a chance, take Xu Fang and the others and escape! I'm afraid I can't complete the instructions given by the senior."
The eldest sister lay on her side on the chair, her graceful curves clearly visible.
Her beautiful big eyes looked lifeless, her face was gray, and her expression was extremely listless.
"Not necessarily! Perhaps the ones who deserved death were those outside the city."
Liu Xiu suddenly thought of something.
He suddenly stood up from the ground.
"What's wrong?"
The eldest sister turned her head and looked at Liu Xiu sideways.
My eyes are full of question marks.
What is not certain?
There are so many experts outside the city, unless...
Could it be that the senior is coming back?
Thinking of this, the eldest sister quickly sat up straight and looked at Liu Xiu.
"Today, I was surrounded by Saint-level warriors outside the city, and even watched by a supreme master, but I didn't feel a single bit of fear. I even felt at ease. This is not consistent with the state of a warrior facing danger. Unless I have transcended, or my cultivation is very powerful."
"Has the senior returned, or is he secretly observing you?"
The eldest sister asked.
"No, but almost."
Having said that, Liu Xiu smiled.
"You mean, you have a backup plan?"
The eldest sister stretched her neck and said.
Seeing that Liu Xiu was so confident, he felt relieved.
That’s it!
How could such a great senior disappear without leaving any backup plan?
"Wait, big sister! If something happens to me, you take Xu Fang and the others away. If nothing happens, hehe~ After this, the small town will be more stable."
"Oh well!"
That night, in the Zhou family's secret room.
The young man picked up a bottle of red medicine and put it to his nose and sniffed it.
“That’s the taste!”
He spent a lot of effort to find countless materials, wasted countless medicinal herbs, and failed countless times in refining this.
The Zhou family almost exhausted their wealth just for this bottle of medicine.
If it weren't for the fact that there were more people and more busy business in the city in the past two years, their Zhou family would have made a lot of profit.
I'm afraid that the Zhou family will be destroyed because of his cultivation.
"No matter what, I will do my best to improve my strength. Even if it's just a tiny bit. A little more strength means a little more protection, a little more chance of survival."
After drinking the potion, the young man meditated and refined it.
The next morning, the young man woke up.
After checking my cultivation level, I found that it had indeed increased a little.
If you want to make such progress through practice, it will take at least a month.
It would be good to reduce the time spent on cultivation by one month.
Exhaling a breath of foul air, the young man began his day's work.
Held a meeting to arrange the day's work.
"Master, isn't our Zhou family closed for business? Many businesses in the city are closed."
Seeing the young man continue to work, the housekeeper couldn't help but step forward and ask.
"No, it's other people's business if they close their markets. If they close their markets, isn't that just right for our Zhou family?"
The young man glanced at Guan Jian and said.
"Master, the city has been in turmoil lately. The Liu family's shops are all closed. If we open the market, will it..."
"The more restless the situation is, the more we need to open the market. If our Zhou family closes down, something really bad will happen in the city."
"yes!"
As the sun reached noon.
Many merchants in the city opened their stores one after another when they saw Zhou’s shop open.
"Are you all crazy? If people from outside the city come charging in, you won't even be able to close the gate in time."
"The Zhou family's stores are all open, so why shouldn't we? They're not afraid, so why should we, a small store like ours, be afraid?"
"You have a point!"
…
"Zhou Kun is crazy!"
Some foreign merchants couldn't believe the result when they received it.
Where does the small Zhou family get its confidence from?
There are bandits outside.
There were tens of thousands of bandits, each of whom had unique skills and had fought their way through the troubled times.
"Master, the Liu family's shop is open now!"
Thump thump~
At this time, a housekeeper also ran in.
"Humph! They're trying to use the opening of the market to stabilize the morale of the soldiers in the city. In fact, whether they open the market or not won't make much difference to them. Once tens of thousands of bandits enter the city, their property will be gone. It's better to open the market to stabilize the morale of the warriors in the city."
"Then our shop..."
"No, get ready to move! The more Zhou and Liu families don't care about the bandits outside the city, the more it means they are panicking. Now the city has no strength to fight against the outsiders."
