Zheng Ya, disguised as the Second Prince, drove away Prince Rong, and was immediately flattered by Cui Yuanfu: "Your Highness is wise and insightful, and resolved a crisis with just a few words..."
"Alright, Manager Cui had better be sensible!" Zheng Ya said, stepping up the stairs to officially check into Linjiang Tower.
Cui Yuanfu was left standing there, bewildered and numb, facing the imprisonment by the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
The guards protecting the Second Prince were all dumbfounded when Zheng Ya drove them downstairs one after another.
The second prince doesn't want anyone to serve him, and he doesn't allow women to play with him. Has he changed his personality?
Zheng Ya checked into the top-floor suite of Linjiang Tower alone. Ge You, reclining in a grand chair, transmitted his voice to Liu Yuan: "How's the situation outside?"
Undifferentiated perception and control within a range of over 400 meters.
With the assistance of the Sihelou spiritual energy system, and the combination of three supernatural abilities to lock onto people within a kilometer and transmit their voices, traversing space is no problem at all.
However, it consumes more psionic energy when used for long-distance missions.
Liu Yuan had been shocked by his methods countless times, but he was still astonished: "Master, the Embroidered Uniform Guards escorted our substitute corpses and burned them in public."
What should we do next? Please advise, Master.
Do they possess the ability to transform corpses without being detected?
Was that caused by taking the Puppet Pill before he died?
Zheng Ya sensed the surging excitement in his blood and smiled calmly: "Since the people have not been misled by those with ulterior motives to continue framing the Second Prince, let's leave it at that!"
"Is your task, grandfather and grandson, to recruit people?"
"Well, Master, recruiting people isn't difficult; the difficulty lies in attracting attention once you've recruited them."
After all, the fact that this incident of using someone else to commit murder and testing the waters is enough to show that people from various forces, large and small, have moved into Linjiang City.
"Any movement within the city will be monitored by them. If we recruit people now, I'm afraid..." Liu Yuan replied bitterly.
The factions and factions are complex and intertwined, with conflicting interests and choices among them.
To put it bluntly, it's a particularly sensitive period, where any unusual activity could be exposed.
The key issue is that Zheng Ya is recruiting an unlimited number of people, which forces Liu Yuan to fear being targeted and facing certain death.
Zheng Ya sensed Manager Cui going upstairs and approaching the guest room, and sent a telepathic message to shoo him away: "You can bribe underground gangs to do the hiring."
There's no need to do it yourself; it just invites unwanted attention and isn't worth it.
“Master, there are seven or eight gangs entrenched in Linjiang City.”
Among them, the Azure Dragon Society is the strongest, with around 500,000 members.
They have relied on sea salt for their livelihood for many years, and their conflicts are too complex. They are also being monitored and targeted by their rivals.
"If we unite with the gang, we will inevitably alert them..." Liu Yuan advised, puzzled.
Provoking gangs is like offering yourself up as food, giving them an excuse to take advantage of you.
Zheng Ya transmitted his voice dismissively: "Alright, there are always more solutions than problems. No matter what method you use, even if you have to throw money at it, you have to create a place to house the legion."
"Master, this old servant understands." Liu Yuan replied bitterly. Liu Yan'er, sitting on the roof ridge, noticed his worried expression and transmitted her voice, "Grandfather, Master Brother seems to have become very powerful and mysterious..."
"Yes, the superpower system that Master cultivates far surpasses the cultivation system of this half-crippled world by more than a hundred times."
Legend has it that three hundred years ago, before the collapse of the Immortal Dynasty, cultivators needed Foundation Establishment Pills to establish their foundation; otherwise, unless they possessed a special physique, it was impossible for them to succeed.
Nowadays, there are no bottlenecks for cultivators to establish their foundation.
At first glance, it seems like cultivating immortality has become easier, which is a great thing.
However, this method of foundation building was called pseudo-foundation building during the Immortal Dynasty, which was tantamount to ruining one's future achievements.
Compared to cultivation methods using supernatural abilities, it's tens of thousands of times inferior and not worth mentioning. Liu Yuan was moved by the limitless potential of supernatural abilities cultivation and wholeheartedly urged Liu Yan'er to seize the opportunity to embark on the Great Dao.
However, Zheng Ya has not yet developed a method for cultivating supernatural abilities, so the cultivation of supernatural abilities has been temporarily put on hold.
Zheng Ya was met with Cui Yuanfu's kneeling plea: "Tell me, what forces are hidden behind this turmoil?"
"Your Highness, I dare not conceal the truth, but indeed three groups of people came to my door one after another to ascertain Your Highness's whereabouts."
"When I learned that the other party was the Azure Dragon Society, the Giant Shark Gang, and the Flower Gang, I didn't dare to provoke them at all. I mistakenly thought that they were just coming to ask about the Second Prince's whereabouts and that they would never dare to ambush and kill the Second Prince, so I revealed the information..." Cui Yuanfu tearfully told the truth.
In fact, the arrival of the Second Prince and Prince Rong was sudden, so it was impossible for them to have been targeted by someone.
The fact that it appeared can only mean that someone leaked their whereabouts.
When princes and nobles travel, they secretly scout out the safety of the road ahead and make arrangements before their masters arrive.
It was no secret in the capital that the Second Prince and Prince Rong had gone to the south of the Yangtze River.
If someone with ulterior motives has their eye on you, and another ambush occurs, it can only mean that your lodgings have been leaked.
Zheng Ya understood perfectly: "Very well, you've tried to scheme against me, the prince. Aren't you asking for your entire family to be executed?"
"No, please forgive me, Your Highness! The three gangs are just too powerful. How could I dare to offend them and risk my life?" Cui Yuanfu cried and begged for forgiveness, exhausted.
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
Zheng Ya got up and walked to the balcony, looking down at the shimmering waves of the Qiantang River under the setting sun: "Is this Linjiang Tower of yours also a property of the Qinglong Society?"
"Ah, no, it's not..." Cui Yuanfu was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. Oh no!
Zheng Ya sneered: "Straighten your tongue before you speak."
"Your Highness, I know I cannot hide anything from your discerning eyes. I beg Your Highness to show leniency." Cui Yuanfu chickened out, unable to bear the thought of his family dying violently and being executed along with their entire clan.
Zheng Ya gave a disdainful snort: "Stop dawdling and being disrespectful. How dare you try to negotiate with me, the prince? Are you trying to incite hatred?"
"Waaah, Your Highness, please forgive me. The Azure Dragon Society was created by that very man, with the intention of eliminating dragons and plotting rebellion to usurp the throne..." Liu Yuan recounted the story with great familiarity.
Unfortunately, Liu Yuan was only an outer member of the Green Dragon Society, relying on the Linjiang Tower to amass wealth and monitor the movements of the guests.
It can be described as an outpost of the Azure Dragon Society's headquarters.
The Azure Dragon Society has members all over the world, numbering in the countless.
Upon receiving this news, Zheng Ya pressed for details: "Where is the headquarters of the Azure Dragon Society?"
And what about the leader of the Green Dragon Society? Tell me about him.
"Your Highness, the high-ranking members of the Azure Dragon Society are elusive and cannot be seen by a nobody like me. So naturally I don't know where that gentleman is."
However, there is a secret realm at the bottom of the Qiantang River, where most members of the Azure Dragon Society are hiding and cultivating..." Cui Yuanfu went all out, exposing the Azure Dragon Society like spilled beans.
At this moment, Cui Yuanfu couldn't wait for Zheng Ya to lead his men into the Azure Dragon Society's secret realm to save his family.
This was a time bomb planted by the person behind the Green Dragon Society, who ordered the coercion of Cui Yuanfu's family to force him to join the Green Dragon Society.
It is also a tragedy for ordinary people.
Merchants, by their very nature, have little social standing.
In the eyes of cultivators, they are nothing but ants, without the right to resist.
When a cultivator comes knocking on your door, you usually have two choices: a life-or-death decision.
Those who are selected must submit to the rules.
Choosing death would mean the execution of the entire family, leaving no survivors.
Zheng Ya became interested: "Are there any restrictions on how to enter the Azure Dragon Society's secret realm?"
