Seeing everyone's reaction, Zhou Dao knew that it had a deterrent effect and would save him a lot of trouble in the future, and he couldn't help but feel happy.
Gao Facai stepped forward and complimented him: "Clan Master Zhou is really a man of extraordinary ability and a young man. The future development of Zhuma City will all depend on Clan Master Zhou."
Gao Facai has a keen eye for life, and he knows that young people like compliments the most, so he will flatter him the most.
"Haha, come on, let's have a drink." Although Zhou Dao said that the other party was praising him, he was still very happy. This is the power of flattery.
"Thank you, Master Zhou, for your hospitality. I still have some things to do with my gang and will go back first." At this time, a person stood up and said.
"Haha, I am in a bit of a hurry, so I am resigning now. If Master Zhou has any errands to do in the future, please give me your instructions." Another person stood up and said.
"hehe, me too."
"Me too."
At this time, everyone stood up to say goodbye. It seemed that they were all frightened by Zhou Dao's shock of killing just now. It was better to go back quickly, otherwise he would be dead if he said the wrong thing. Now Zhou Dao was already in the hearts of everyone
It left an undefeated impression, and no one even thought about going against the Tiandao Sect.
The Pan family brothers and the four evil ghosts on the side were very happy. They saw everyone greeting them enthusiastically. In the past, they never thought that they would have such a day, so they looked at Zhou Dao with more and more respect.
.
By this time, everyone had almost left, but there were still a small number of people in the hall who had not left.
After seeing this, Zhou Dao frowned and was about to step forward to say something. At this time, one of them came out and spoke: "Master Zhou, our Jade Snake Gang wants to join the Tiandao Sect."
"Sect Master Zhou, so are our Seven Star Gang."
"And our Red Turban Club."
It turns out there was a reason why these people didn't leave. They wanted to join the Tiandao Sect.
Zhou Dao thought about it for a while. In fact, according to Zhou Dao's intention, he did not want to accept these people, because these people are from a small sect, and their natural strength is not outstanding. Moreover, he does not understand these people.
At this time, Pan Ming stepped forward and said: "Master, our sect has too few people now, so we should accept it."
"Well, I have the same idea. The main reason is that our sect has fewer people. Actually, it doesn't matter. The main reason is that there are too few masters." Zhou Dao nodded.
"I'm ashamed of myself." Pan Ming and others felt a little embarrassed.
"Haha, I didn't mean that. I'll find a way to improve your strength later." Zhou Dao said with a smile.
"Thank you, Master." Several people saluted respectfully.
"Okay, okay, don't always salute, I'm not used to it." Zhou Dao waved his hand.
"Master, this is not allowed. The rules cannot be abolished." Everyone said.
"Okay, now let's arrange positions for everyone." Zhou Dao considered.
Everyone looked stern after hearing this and waited respectfully for Zhou Dao to speak.
"Ahem, appoint Pan Ming as deputy sect leader." Zhou Dao said calmly.
"Thank you, Master, for your appreciation." Pan Ming stepped forward excitedly.
"Okay, you are the deputy sect leader now. It is up to you to accept the fate of the remaining people. You also need to make arrangements for those who want to join the sect. I will rest first." After Zhou Dao said this, he ignored everyone's surprised looks.
He walked away.
"This." Seeing Zhou Dao leave, everyone looked at each other.
"Please give the order from the deputy sect master." The four evil ghosts were the first to react.
"Okay." Pan Ming smiled bitterly.
Looking at Zhou Dao's leaving figure, Pan Ming suddenly thought that maybe he would not be easy in the future. This was just the beginning.
Three days later, some of the remaining forces in Golden Spear Villa and Golden Knife Villa had basically collapsed, and those who resisted were killed by Pan Ming and his men.
The two major villas were also looted, and of course all the good things went into Zhou Dao's pocket. Unfortunately, no good secrets were found this time. The most were some gold and silver treasures, which made Zhou Dao very helpless, but
Fortunately, there were some medicinal materials that made Zhou Dao feel better.
After these matters were dealt with, everyone left the city and rushed to Tianxia Mountain.
Tianxia Mountain is a small mountain twenty miles outside Zhumacheng City.
It was a very ordinary mountain, nothing unusual. But it is different now, because silver mines were discovered here.
When the sun was shining brightly at noon, a group of more than a dozen people appeared at the foot of Tianxia Mountain.
"Master, in front of you is Tianxia Mountain." One of them said respectfully to a young man in black.
"Oh, let's go and have a look." The boy in black nodded.
This group of people was none other than Zhou Dao and others, and they went up the mountain to investigate the silver mine discovered at Jindao Villa.
"Master, my subordinates found out that the location should be at the foot of the mountain in front." Pan Ming said, pointing not far ahead.
Zhou Dao didn't say anything at this time and just listened attentively.
Seeing that Zhou Dao was silent, Pan Ming hurriedly asked: "What's wrong, Master?"
"There is someone in front of me." Zhou Dao said calmly.
"There is someone, could it be someone from Golden Knife Villa?" Everyone guessed.
“You’ll know after you go and see it.”
We soon arrived at the place, and there were indeed twenty or thirty people hanging out in twos and threes in an open space. There were some thatched houses built next to them.
These people were also surprised when they saw Zhou Dao and others coming. They all occupied it, holding some strange tools in their hands.
Zhou Dao took a closer look at these people and found that these people were simply dressed up and were ordinary people.
"Who are you and why are you here?" Pan Liang stepped forward and shouted.
There was a commotion among the people in front, and soon an old man came out. Looking at Zhou Dao and others, he asked carefully: "May I ask who all of you are?"
"Humph, we are asking you questions." Pan Liang shouted, putting his hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.
When the old man saw Pan Liang's actions, he was so frightened that he trembled and said quickly: "We are all nearby villagers. We were all captured by Jindao Villa and asked us to mine for them."
Zhou Dao and others looked at each other. Pan Liang continued: "Jindao Villa has been destroyed by our Tiandao Sect. The place here will belong to our Tiandao Sect from now on. This is why our sect master hastened to come up and pay homage."
Everyone behind the old man wanted to salute Zhou Dao.
Zhou Dao waved his hand and said, "Are you all nearby villagers?"
"Yes." Everyone knew Zhou Dao was the leader and quickly replied.
"Do you know how to mine?" Zhou Dao asked the fundamental question.
"Haha, of course, otherwise the people from Jindao Villa would not have arrested us. They were still looking at us at first. For some reason, everyone left a few days ago. We were afraid of them and did not dare to leave, so we had to wait here.
Yes." The old man replied respectfully.
Zhou Dao nodded and knew what was going on: "Then have you discovered any minerals?"
"There is a mine, it's a silver mine."
Everyone was overjoyed when they heard this.
"Hey, actually the silver mine here was discovered by people in our village. In the end, somehow the Golden Knife Villa found out about it, sent people to occupy it, and forced us to mine. In fact, ordinary people like us can't keep the mine even if we discover it. Sooner or later,
They will all be snatched away by others. If we hadn't all had the ability to mine, we probably wouldn't even be able to survive." The old man said sadly.
"Now that all the gentlemen are here, I hope you can spare our lives. We have both young and old at home, so we can open the mine for you." The old man said and finally knelt down, and dozens of men behind him also knelt down.
"Everyone, get up." Zhou Dao quickly waved his hands, and an invisible force was released, like a wall of energy supporting everyone. Everyone was unable to kneel down.
Everyone felt that the young man in black across from them waved his hand, and they and the others were unable to kneel down. They all looked as if they had seen a ghost, and their faces were as pale as earth.
"Haha, don't be afraid. Our Tiandao Sect is different from other sects. We will not kill people randomly. If you mine for us, we will pay you wages, and the wages are indispensable." Zhou Dao said with a smile.
"Is this true?" Everyone couldn't believe it.
"Why, don't you believe it? What our sect master said in Zhuma City is an imperial edict." Pan Liang stepped forward and shouted.
"I believe it, I believe it. Thank you so much, sir. We will work hard." The old man said quickly.
"Haha, don't be afraid, everyone, I still have something to ask you." Zhou Dao said with a smile.
