The stronger the members of the cultivators are, the better the secular members can live. The secular members must work for the interests of the cultivators. The more secular members there are, the more likely it is that cultivators will be born.
The Ji family was defeated, the real monk was killed in the battle, and the remaining family members retreated to Dezhou, losing their ambition to fight with the Jiang family and settling in a corner.
The Jiang family's own strength was also severely depleted, and they did not want to continue fighting, so they conferred the title of Ji's secular family as a prince with a foreign surname in Dezhou, allowing them to take charge of the military and political power in a corner of Dezhou.
Although the Diji family was defeated at this time, they still had several True Yuan Stage monks alive. They were considered to be a moderately strong Immortal Cultivation Family, and they could still manage to occupy a single Texas.
However, Texas is not a good place, and troubles arise here among the casual cultivators who often come and go.
The Ji family was in a difficult situation in Dezhou. A hundred years passed by, and several Zhenyuan monks died one after another. The population was not prosperous, and no monks with high talent for cultivating immortals had been born for a long time.
There are no successors in the Ji family, and there are no monks above the Zhen Yuan stage. Only some Zhen Qi stage monks are left to barely support them.
Although he was able to defend Dezhou City after being challenged several times by other cultivators, his strength was severely depleted and he eventually declined completely.
Naturally, the Jiang family would no longer give any face to the Ji family. The military and political power of Dezhou City was also taken back from the Ji family.
Nowadays, the Ji family's secular family only guards Texas with the empty title of Prince. They have not mobilized the real power of the Texas garrison in their hands. They only control some local gangs and gangs, and their strength has declined to the extreme.
The Ji family has been completely reduced to an unknown little cultivator family. There are only three Zhenqi stage cultivators in the family now, and they barely control the expansion of the local Jianghu gangs in Dezhou City.
North Texas now belongs to Wen Zhengming and four others.
The west, south, and east parts of Texas are being eroded and controlled by seven low-level and middle-level immortal cultivators in the Zhenqi stage.
Several of the casual cultivators are forces that have been operating for decades at least and control many gangs.
Because the half-month period promised by Yuwen Zhouyuan was too short, all opponents in Texas could be eradicated at once.
After discussion among the four others, Wen finally decided to use half a month to eradicate the Ji family's little cultivator family in Dezhou City and control the local Jianghu gangs in Dezhou City.
As for the other loose cultivators in Texas, the threat to them is not too great. They will be dealt with gradually in the future. Their appetite cannot swallow the entire Jianghu gang in Texas at once.
After selecting the target, Wen Zhengming immediately arranged the action.
The Dehui Inn where Yuwen Zhouyuan lives is used as a base and as the temporary base camp of the Qiankun Alliance. Yuwen Zhouyuan provides them with absolutely safe protection. No other immortal cultivators within a radius of one mile can enter it.
Wen Zhengming did not have the guts to let Yuwen Zhouyuan charge into the battle, so all the specific actions were completed by the Wen brothers and sisters, Yaowen, Mu Huali, and a group of top warriors and peerless warriors from the Qiankun Alliance.
If the operation fails, Yuwen Zhouyuan will help them cover their retreat.
Generally speaking, the only thing Yuwen Zhouyuan does is to provide protection. If everything goes well, Yuwen Zhouyuan basically does not need to take action. Only in the case of failure, he needs to help the four people.
Even though Yuwen Zhouyuan has done almost nothing, his existence is very important. As a Zhenyuan stage monk, he is enough to suppress any Zhenqi stage monk, even a small family.
With the protection provided by Yuwen Zhouyuan, the Wen brothers and sisters, including Yaowen and Mu Huali, do not have to worry about their own safety or that their base camp will be attacked. They can concentrate their superior manpower to eradicate the Ji family in Dezhou City.
On the contrary, without the protection of Yuwen Zhouyuan, they would have to spend a lot of money, a lot of manpower, and at least half a year to operate an absolutely safe stronghold in Dezhou City before they dare to attack the remaining forces of the Ji family.
Launching an attack may not necessarily lead to victory. The effect is probably far inferior to the protection provided by Yuwen Zhouyuan.
Therefore, although the half-moon protection provided by Yuwen Zhouyuan was very short-lived, for the four of them, it was almost like a timely help.
Wen Zhengming arranged the action plan and consulted Yu Wenzhouyuan's opinion.
Yuwen Zhouyuan basically agreed with this method. This arrangement was just what he wanted. He didn't want to personally deal with a small cultivator family. Of course, he didn't know much about this action against the Ji family.
Psychological burden. It is normal for a family that cultivates immortality to wax and wane, to rise and fall.
When the Xiuxian family declines, they must give up their original territory and be replaced by emerging forces.
After Wen Zhengming finished explaining his action plan, he glanced at his niece Wen Huisi.
Although Wen Huisi was listening, most of her thoughts were on Yuwen Zhouyuan.
He glanced at Yuwen Zhouyuan again. Yuwen Zhouyuan's expression was indifferent and it was hard to tell what he was thinking.
Wen Zhengming sighed in his heart. The reason why he wanted to invite Yu Wen Zhouyuan to join the team was because with Yu Wen Zhouyuan, it would be easy for them to capture Texas, and even expand to other surrounding states and counties.
But the more important reason is that he has "selfishness". His niece is now over 20 years old and it's time to find a family.
After performing that mission with Yu Wen Zhouyuan a few years ago, my niece secretly had a crush on Yu Wen Zhouyuan. Later, Yu Wen Zhouyuan left the monk camp because of his great achievements in participating in the expedition to the Lingshi Ridge Mine in No Return Mountain.
There has been no news since.
He thought they would never see each other again, but he didn't expect that they would meet in Texas, so he really wanted to promote this marriage, but when he saw Yu Wen Zhouyuan's look, he knew there was no chance!
All this is just wishful thinking of my niece.
If Yuwen Zhouyuan could marry his niece and stay in the Qiankun Alliance, he would kill two birds with one stone, but this would be too difficult.
Wen Zhengming thought for a while and finally gave up the persuasion. After all, Yuwen Zhouyuan was no longer on the same path as them.
Yuwen Zhouyuan was wandering in the world of cultivating immortals, while they were wandering in the world of martial arts. There was a huge difference between the two.
It was difficult for anyone to ask Yuwen Zhouyuan to give up the fairy world and come to the world. The reason why Yuwen Zhouyuan agreed to help them was purely based on the friendship he had made in the monk camp in the past.
Otherwise, how could Yuwen Zhouyuan, a monk in the True Yuan stage, interfere with such a trivial matter in the world of Dezhou?
Wen Zhengming just smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Yuwen is not willing to be the boss of our Qiankun Alliance, but he helped us a big favor. The few of us can't repay him."
Yuwen Zhouyuan raised his hand and smiled lightly: "You owe me a favor, maybe I will ask for it back in the future."
"Brother Yuwen may need us in the future, it's okay to just tell him!" Wen Zhengming said.
"We brothers accept this love." Wen Zhengming, Mu Huali, You Yaowen and others looked at each other and said with serious expressions.
Jianghu has the morality and rules of Jianghu people, and favors are more important than anything else. Yuwen Zhouyuan's character will not help them for no reason. Maybe he will be useful to them in the future. That is when they return the favor.
Heavy snow fell in Texas at night, almost dressing the entire city in white.
The biting cold wind was as sharp as a knife. There was no one left in the streets and alleys. The city was dark, and the people were huddled in their homes and wrapped in quilts.
But in the middle area of the city, in Prince Ji's residence, the lights were brightly lit and stayed on all night.
Gang leaders, elders, and dozens of gangsters from more than a dozen local gangs in Dezhou City gathered in the meeting hall of Prince Ji's residence in the city late at night regardless of the severe cold.
These gangsters, who were usually very powerful in Dezhou City, all bowed their waists and did not dare to take a breath. They looked eagerly at Mr. Ji in the hall, hoping that Mr. Ji could say a word and give them something.
confidence.
However, Prince Ji, who is now seventy or eighty years old with white eyebrows and white beard, is sitting on the red lacquer king chair in the lobby, with a dull face and dim eyes, looking at the dark night outside the mansion with a dull expression, not knowing what he is thinking.
What, his face is even gloomier than this snowy night.
The gang leaders and elders didn't dare to say anything without Mr. Ji's words.
The Qiankun League is eyeing Dezhou City and wants to capture Dezhou City. This is something that everyone knows about. Even the merchants, vendors and ruffians on the streets in the city know about this.
They, the local gang bosses, naturally know better.
A few days ago, the Qiankun Alliance sent a group of nearly a hundred elite warriors into the city, which had already alarmed the local gangs in Dezhou City.
They had already sent people to watch every move of the Qiankun Alliance, and were on alert, ready to engage in a fight with the people of the Qiankun Alliance at any time.
But the fierce battle with the Qiankun Alliance still requires Mr. Ji's nod.
Since hundreds of years ago, Prince Ji's Mansion has been the place where gangs in Dezhou give orders.
In recent years, gangs in some counties in the county have openly rebelled and escaped from the control of the palace.
For example, the Qiankun Alliance, the Zhendong Clan, the Pingxi Clan, and the Tianlongmen all established their own factions and no longer obeyed the orders of the palace.
Now only the local gangs in Dezhou City are left, and they still respect Prince Ji's Palace as their leader. Without orders from Prince Ji's Palace, they will never dare to move lightly.
But for some reason, the always hot-tempered Prince Ji claimed to wipe out these traitors, but this time he actually watched the gang of bastards from the Qiankun Alliance enter Dezhou City, and even stayed at the Dehui Inn without a trace.
Ken nodded and agreed that they would start a war with the people of the Qiankun Alliance.
Tonight, more than a dozen gangs, large and small, in Dezhou City suddenly received an extremely tough ultimatum from the Qiankun Alliance, requiring each gang to surrender.
Before dawn, any gang that does not take the initiative to surrender to the Qiankun Alliance will have its top leaders above the Xiang Master bloodbathed.
This caused great anger and panic among the local gang bosses, who gathered at Prince Ji's house overnight and demanded a war with the Qiankun Alliance.
But when Mr. Ji reached this point, he seemed to be worried about something, and he was still hesitating and refused to nod. The big bosses of the local gangs in Texas felt very cold in their hearts. This snowy night was so cold that it was almost despairing.
