However, just before the extraterritorial battlefield trial began, a foundation-building monk from the Haiya Sect came to Jiang Hua'an's cave and gently knocked on the door.
The Haiya monk stood quietly outside the door. After waiting for about half a quarter of an hour, Jiang Hua'an's voice came from the cave: "I have finished the retreat. Please come in and talk!"
The strange foundation-building monk showed no sign of impatience on his face, and he quickly and respectfully pushed open the door of Jiang Hua'an's cave, and then very skillfully threw behind him a set of early warning spells to isolate outsiders from prying eyes.
After walking seven or eight meters along the main passage of the cave, Brother Haiya arrived at the monastery where Jiang Huaan retreated.
As the head of the Haiya Sect, Jiang Hua'an's retreat is very simple. It is a room about forty square meters. The decoration style is like a Zen hall on the earth. The surrounding walls are decorated with silk in elegant colors, which makes people feel...
A feeling of tranquility.
And just on the ground of this quiet room, there are various mysterious fairy formations densely engraved, most of which are formations used to calm down the cultivators and concentrate their attention. However, as Jiang Huaan took the initiative to end the meditation,
Through cultivation, the light of these immortal formations has been completely dimmed.
Noticing the Haiya disciple who was bowing in, Jiang Hua couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and said, "Zhang Hang, it's you who's here?"
The foundation-building monk known as Zhang Hang quickly clasped his fists and said: "Director Jiang, I take the liberty of disturbing you, mainly because of the few things you have warned me about, and there have been unusual developments recently!"
If any other disciples of the Haiya Sect saw Zhang Hang calling Jiang Hua'an "Director Jiang," they would definitely feel very strange.
Because Jiang Hua'an's first identity is the Lord of Haiya City, his second identity is the leader of the Haiya Sect, and his third identity is the Great Monk of the Golden Core Stage. But no matter which identity he has, there is absolutely no weird title like director. Even if he is.
The Haiya Chamber of Commerce does not have a board of directors, so it is naturally impossible for it to have any directorships.
Therefore, when disciples of the Haiya Sect call Jiang Hua'an, they will never give him such a strange title.
But after hearing Zhang Hang's address, Jiang Hua'an didn't show the slightest expression of surprise on his face, but his eyes narrowed slightly and he said: "Didn't I tell you before not to contact me if you have nothing to do? It's just a small matter to interrupt my retreat. After all,
I have no hope of breaking through the Nascent Soul in this life, so I am in seclusion here just to prolong my life as much as possible... More importantly, Su Yuanfeng and Han Xinhe must have spies around me. If the two of us get too close, it is very likely to cause that
The suspicions of two old foxes..."
Zhang Hang bowed his head deeply and said: "Director Jiang, I'm taking the liberty!"
Jiang Hua'an raised his hand slightly, interrupting the other party's apology: "You are a measured person, otherwise Ting He Yu Pavilion would not choose you as the contact person. You just said that there was something unusual, could it be Ting He Yu Pavilion?"
Is there a problem at the pavilion? I remember the last time you contacted me, it was probably because of Li Qingning’s assassination!”
Mentioning the assassination of Li Qingning by Heyuge killer, Zhang Hang said with a face full of shame: "Director Jiang, that was indeed a major work mistake on my part. The person who posted the reward at that time was Ji Sihan, a fugitive from the Qingning Chamber of Commerce, and he named him
The person who wants to be assassinated is Yang Lu, the new mortal consultant of the Qingning Chamber of Commerce. This is all within the normal business scope of Tinghe Yu Pavilion. I did not expect that this commission would involve Li Qingning in the end, and he almost gave you
We really want to solemnly apologize to you for making such a huge mistake..."
If anyone hears Zhang Hang's words, their jaws will definitely drop. It turns out that Zhang Hang is not only an early-stage foundation-building monk of the Haiya Sect, but also a representative of Tingheyuge, the largest killer organization in Kyushu, which is even more shocking.
What's surprising is that this representative from Tinghe Yu Pavilion is actually reporting to Jiang Hua'an, the head of the Haiya Sect!
"The past is over!" There was no trace of anger on Jiang Hua'an's face, but he raised his hand again to interrupt the other party's apology: "This kind of accident itself is difficult to avoid. I don't mean to blame you, directors.
We are very satisfied with the performance of Tingheyuge. The information you have provided to the board of directors over the years is priceless. I am afraid it is not an exaggeration to describe it!"
"Serving the seven directors is exactly the purpose and mission of Tinghe Yuge when it was founded!" Zhang Hang lowered his eyebrows and said a slogan-like statement like an oath.
Jiang Hua'an smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, if you have something to say, just tell me! What happened this time?"
"The news came from the Wuliang Sword Sect headquarters that Haiya City has been selected as a pilot city for the reform of Zhongzhou's social security system!"
Hearing the news, Jiang Hua'an shrank slightly: "Lin Jianxing is going to attack our Haiya Department! Although I have heard some rumors, I didn't expect that Lin Jianxing will still insist on having his own way! The news has been confirmed
?"
Zhang Hang nodded and said: "The news came from Song Xianzi of Wuliang Sword Sect. As a Jindan monk of Qiu Longbo's lineage, we have the handle tightly in our hands. Even if she has the courage to use it,
Don’t dare to trick us with false information.”
Jiang Hua'an closed his eyes and pondered for a moment, then said in a calm tone: "What is supposed to come will always come... Is there any other important information?"
Zhang Hang continued to report: "Also, I heard news from the Nanman Prefecture branch of Heyu Pavilion. It is said that an anonymous client in Nanman Prefecture has offered a huge reward of up to four million spirit stone coins to obtain Li Qingning's body on the battlefield outside the territory.
Life. This kind of commission is extremely rare, and Li Qingning is also a key target of your attention. Director Miao of Huaishan Port also wants to ask you, how should this reward be handled?"
Jiang Hua'an immediately frowned: "Four million spirit stone coins...which deity offered this reward?"
"According to the information from Nanman State, the person who posted the request should be Song Qingshan, the Supreme Elder of Wanhua Valley!"
Jiang Hua'an had already heard about the old grievances between Song Qingshan and Lu Yang, so he was just slightly stunned, and then smiled: "It turns out it's him. These old guys were humiliated by President Lu back then, but it's better to vent their anger to the younger generation.
It would be too shabby to do such a thing."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhang Hang lowered his head and said: "Four million spirit stone coins are a lot, but it is just that for a Yuan Ying stage monk. Recently, Su Yuanfeng
By bribing Ren Tianyuan through the Yangjiang Port project, he gave away at least tens of millions of spiritual stone coins in one transaction..."
"President Su's handiwork is beyond the reach of ordinary people. It's not as easy as you say if you want an ordinary Nascent Soul monk to come up with four million in cash."
"Perhaps beings like them, who stand at the top of the Kyushu cultivation world, sometimes live just to fight for a breath."
Jiang Hua'an nodded noncommittally, and then said seriously: "Is Tinghe Yuge's intelligence network in Nanman Prefecture still reliable?"
"Absolutely reliable!" Zhang Hang's answer was categorical, without any sloppiness. "You know from the operating methods of Heyu Pavilion that all killers and clients are franchises. Unless the directors make special requests, ordinary killers have no idea at all.
There is absolutely no chance of anyone being exposed as to who they are working for.”
Jiang Hua'an just asked casually and didn't really think there would be any problems inside Heyu Pavilion.
So he said "hmm" and fell into deep thought again.
Since its establishment, Tingheyuge has always adhered to the management philosophy of light asset operations. Unless the seven directors personally go out, Tingheyuge will always only act as an intelligence broker and will not engage in specific murder business. The same is true for subordinates and uplines.
Single line contact.
The extremely small number of core members ensures that the secrets of Tingheyuge are difficult to leak.
In today's Jiuzhou cultivation world, the core members who know the inside story of Heyu Pavilion are only seven directors, including Jiang Hua'an, and 28 contacts, including Zhang Hang. Moreover, these core members have also entered into a final agreement with each other.
Strict confidentiality contract.
This is why Jiang Hua'an is so relieved about Tinghe Yuge's confidentiality work.
In the world of Kyushu cultivation, a contract with heaven is not about treating guests to dinner.
The more stringent and complex the heavenly contract entered into by a cultivator, the more heavenly merit it will cost.
The heavenly contract signed by the thirty-five core members of Tingheyu Pavilion is the most stringent kind of heavenly contract. If there is even the slightest violation, they will become possessed and die on the spot. The establishment of such a strict heavenly contract consumes
His merits are also very terrifying, almost as much as killing dozens of mortals in the street for no reason at all.
Not only that, in order to hide as much as possible from others, Zhang Hang, as the liaison of Tingheyu Pavilion under Jiang Hua'an, has been stationed at the inaccessible Haiya Lighthouse dozens of miles away from Haiya Port all year round. This lighthouse is secretly engraved with a secret communication circle.
It can directly receive and handle murder commissions from all over the Central State, and can also make horizontal contact with the contact person under another director of the Nanman State.
Therefore, Zhang Hang's apparent identity is actually an ascetic responsible for guarding the lighthouse and monitoring the sea monsters. This is also the most difficult position in the foundation-building period of the Sea Cliff system. That's why Jiang Hua'an said that Zhang Hang's sudden visit to him would arouse suspicion from outsiders.
.
After all, how could a foundation-building monk who had a very good relationship with Master Jiang be sent to guard the lighthouse?
But huge efforts will inevitably mean amazing rewards.
Needless to say, the twenty-eight director contacts are all the most trusted subordinates of the directors of Tinghe Yuge. Tinghe Yuge’s huge annual business turnover only requires a small part to be allocated to these cultivation bases.
contacts are enough to enable them to achieve financial freedom far beyond that of their peers.
As for the seven founding directors of Tingheyuge, they are all important business leaders in Kyushu's cultivation world. Tingheyuge's ability to conduct business across major states also relies on the trade network of these seven business giants throughout Kyushu.
The seven directors of Tingheyuge themselves have abundant capital, and coupled with the intelligence network provided by Tingheyuge, the seven directors are even more powerful and invincible in the business field of Kyushu.
Even at certain critical moments, these seven directors will take advantage of their special status in Tingheyu Pavilion to directly use some of their more special killers as chess pieces to solve problems that they cannot solve or are inconvenient to solve.
Trouble.
Fairy Song, who brought the news from the headquarters of the Wuliang Sword Sect, is one of the most important chess pieces in Jiang Hua'an's hands.
Not only that, when Jiang Hua'an sent people to kill Ye Chen's entire family, he hired a heaven-level killer from the Yufeng Sect who was in the Golden Elixir Dzogchen realm through the secret channel of Ting He Yu Pavilion. If it weren't for Chen Ming holding the Mountain Eagle Sword
, you can't stand it at all and will be defeated after a few rounds.
In fact, if the killer hadn't been worried about making too much noise, he might have forced Chen Ming to jump over the wall, activate the Nine Turns Tianshu Formation, or alarm the Yuan Ying Stage Supreme Elder of the Wuliang Sword Sect, even if Chen Ming had
With the help of the Mountain Eagle Sword, it was impossible to secretly rescue Ye Chen from under the nose of this Tianji killer, thus leaving the last incense to the remnants of the Ye family.
It was also from that time that Su Yuanfeng, the second-in-command of the Haiya Department, and Han Xinhe, the third-in-command of the Haiya Department, realized that Jiang Huaan held an extremely powerful force that was independent of the Haiya Department. However, they could never imagine that Jiang Huaan had another power.
His first identity is actually the founder of the famous Tingheyuge!
It was precisely by virtue of this special identity that Jiang Hua'an was able to suppress Chairman Su, who had friends all over the world, and Elder Han, who was an insider in the editorial department of "Xu Zhen Financial Weekly", and became the true leader of the Haiya Department.
It is precisely because Su Yuanfeng and Han Xinhe are very curious about Jiang Hua'an's details that they have secretly placed many undercover agents around Jiang Hua'an. Therefore, Jiang Hua'an has specially instructed several of his contacts not to contact him unless there is an urgent matter, especially not for no reason.
Visit him at home to avoid arousing suspicion.
It's just that when a cultivator goes into retreat, he must eliminate all distracting thoughts and maintain absolute tranquility in the spiritual environment around him so as not to distract himself. He cannot receive ordinary communication spells at all, so Zhang Hang came to visit him personally.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After hearing the two important news brought by Zhang Hang, Jiang Hua'an also felt a little hesitant.
Most of the top local sects like him only have mid-level spiritual root qualifications. Despite this, he was able to practice all the way to the Golden Elixir stage. In addition to the large amount of heavenly merits gained from being the head of the Haiya Sect, he also gained from opening a private charity hall.
Heavenly merits are also very important, and this is also the fast track for local sect cultivators to advance.
Now that the Wuliang Sword Sect wants to take back this part of the merits, it is equivalent to permanently cutting off the cultivation shortcut for cultivators from the vast number of local sects. If Jiang Hua'an easily compromises with Lin Jianxing, the leader of the Haiya Sect will not have to do this.
Already.
He originally planned to watch the fire from across the bank and let other sects take the lead in resisting the Wuliang Sword Sect's reforms. However, he did not expect that Lin Jianxing actually placed the pilot city on the head of Haiya City. Judging from the current situation, the Haiya Sect and Lin Jianxing's group
Head-on confrontation is inevitable!
As for the Qingning Chamber of Commerce...
To be fair, Jiang Hua'an had no friendship with the Qingning Chamber of Commerce. He even felt very unhappy because the Qingning Chamber of Commerce was too close to Su Yuanfeng and Han Xinhe.
However, the current Haiya system has far greater external troubles than internal troubles and needs to unite all forces that can be united. Even Jiang Hua'an has to admit that Li Qingning is indeed a good card to counter Lin Jianxing.
After all, Lin Jianxing recently expressed his concern for Li Qingning in the "Xu Zhen Financial Weekly", thereby severely refuting the dirty water that Li Feiyu poured from Huoyun State. Therefore, he will not give up the excuse to persecute Li Qingyang's descendants at this time.
He even had to take the initiative to protect Li Qingning's safety, otherwise his previous cowardly behavior would be like "lifting the fire cloud and fine gold and smashing himself in the foot."
Although Jiang Hua'an had a lot of cards in his hand and was not afraid of the challenge thrown by Lin Jianxing, it would be a pity if such a good card was wasted on the battlefield outside the territory.
After thinking for a long time, Jiang Hua'an slowly said: "If I want Director Miao to take over this commission for me, do you think it's okay?"
Hearing Jiang Hua'an's instructions, Zhang Hang seemed a little hesitant: "Withholding a client's commission for no reason, especially a commission from a Nascent Soul Stage monk. This will probably be very detrimental to the reputation of Ting He Yu Pavilion, and there will also be pressure from Director Miao."
It’s very big. After all, this approach violates Tingheyuge’s principle of neutrality, and it is easy for people to associate with the identity of the boss behind Tingheyuge——”
Jiang Hua'an made a calm gesture and interrupted: "I did not ask Director Miao to withhold this commission openly. We just need to prevent this commission from being seen by outsiders, and then lie that the commission has been accepted.
Just leave. I heard that the killers of Heyu Pavilion are all over Jiuzhou, and they operate in a completely black box. Even the Yuanying Stage monks don't know how many people have accepted my commission."
"But what if Li Qingning accidentally dies on a foreign battlefield and we can't get the token?"
Jiang Hua'an said indifferently: "What's so difficult about this? Li Qingning is in our Haiya City. You send people to the Qingning Chamber of Commerce to secretly collect some of her hair. Then it will be used to deliver business to clients. If Li Qingning is not dead,
That means our assassination failed. The worst we can do is not charge commission. If Li Qingning dies, these hairs will be evidence of our actions. Then we will send these hairs to Director Miao Feijian of Huaishan Port and send them a letter. I don’t believe Song
Qingshan can still find faults."
Zhang Hang immediately understood what Jiang Huaan meant.
If Li Qingning did not die, Haiya City would naturally be happy to see what happened. If Li Qingning unfortunately died on a battlefield outside the territory, Ting He Yu Pavilion would lie and claim that he killed the person himself and share the millions of bounties from the client. No matter what,
All can be invincible.
After all, there is always no evidence of death in foreign battlefields!
Sighing that Jiang is still hotter, Zhang Hang said sincerely: "Director Jiang is still thoughtful!"
