In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

She was especially aware of the dangers and horrors of the ambush outside Suzhou last time.

This is only a portion of the Zhang family's power, or rather, only their peripheral power.

The true core of the Zhang family is this seemingly young master. Some might dare to assassinate the head of the Zhang family, but absolutely no one would dare to assassinate this young master of the Zhang family.

Golden-Faced Buddha and Young Master are almost equally famous in the martial arts world!

Once aboard, everyone realized how grand and luxurious this place was, completely different from their own luxury ships.

"This is Qiao Feng of the North, the great hero Qiao!"

"Greetings, Master Qiao!"

Qiao Feng in the North, Murong Fu in the South!

Even if they weren't from the martial arts world, they couldn't possibly be unaware of the name of this Northern Qiao Feng.

"Please, everyone, have a seat!"

Zhang Xiaoshan made a platter with the freshly thawed tuna and then served it.

Looking at the bright red, glistening fish, Wang Yuyan felt a wave of nausea.

They had eaten sea bass sashimi, a type of fish with milky white flesh, but this kind of thing, which looked like flesh and blood and was eaten raw, was not something they could accept.

Just as Confucianism says "a gentleman keeps away from the kitchen," meaning he cannot bear to kill living beings; yet it also says that one should not be too particular about the fineness of the meat, similar to the Taoist concept of "three pure meats."

They are meticulous about their food, but they cannot bear to kill living beings.

"Thank you, sir!"

Compared to Wang Yuyan's ignorance, Madam Wang was much more knowledgeable and nodded in agreement.

"Young Master Zhang, where is my cousin? Why did he suddenly give Yanziwu to the Zhang family?"

"Nan Murong? If I'm not mistaken, we've already arrived in Western Xia."

As for why he left? You are Murong Fu's closest people. Considering his recent activities and the major events that have occurred, you should understand.

· ········Requesting flowers· ········

"What major events have happened recently?"

Wang Yuyan usually rarely left the house, and although Madam Wang was not exactly well-informed, thousands of people had died in Zhuxian Town.

Such massive casualties are enough to shake the entire nation.

Thousands of assassins lying in ambush were killed, including five hundred renowned Xuanjia Iron Cavalry, hundreds of martial arts masters, and even top-tier experts.

It would be hard for Madam Wang not to know, especially since this battle also completely benefited the Zhang family and the Golden-Faced Buddha.

Become famous in World War I!

"Could it be that the Murong family was also involved?"

"Indeed, before coming here, I received a letter from the Murong family, with two purposes:"

Firstly, to apologize; secondly, to hope that the Zhang family could appease the Buddha's anger.

"Bastard!"

Madam Wang trembled with rage. The Murong family had fled quickly, but they were from the maternal lineage within five degrees of kinship of the Murong family. Were they to be left behind to suffer the Golden-Faced Buddha's ruthless attacks?

She knew exactly who the Golden-Faced Buddha was.

Even a group of top martial arts masters who were besieged were all killed instantly by a single sword strike, let alone them.

......... .... .......

"So, how did things go?"

"After Master Zhang appeared, the matter was over; otherwise, how could anyone have left that day?"

However, the Murong family is different. They have provoked the Buddha time and again, and even my Zhang family had to step in twice to stop them, plus the time we healed their internal injuries from their demonic possession. Not only have we exhausted all their favors, but the Murong family actually owes my Zhang family two favors.

Besides, this time...

Upon hearing this, Madam Wang gritted her teeth, her hatred for the Murong father and son reaching its peak.

Even Qiao Feng had to admit the Murong family's propensity for courting death.

He had already used up all his favors, but now that he owed them a favor, he still retaliated against them.

Undoubtedly, the Zhang family has done more than enough for the Murong family.

“Young Master Zhang, even if my cousin makes a move, it’s against the Golden-Faced Buddha, not the Zhang family.”

"Hahaha···"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Wang Yuyan, who was trying to argue her point, and shook his head.

"This matter is either wrong or right; it's clear-cut, and there's no need for debate."

However, Madam Wang can rest assured that the Zhang family and Ghost Street will not implicate the Wang family; at least for now, this matter has nothing to do with the Wang family.

However, the Wang family should tone down the practice of using human fertilizer. If you, Madam, don't know much about camellias, you can consult some experts in this field, or you can ask the Zhang family's business. The Zhang family can also arrange these things for you and invite some flower-growing experts over.

But using human fertilizer is against the natural order!

"I will remember this!"

Madam Wang breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time felt a secret resentment.

But they were at the mercy of others, like fish on a chopping board, and as weak women, they had no choice but to submit.

"Does the young master know why my cousin went to Western Xia?"

"Because the identity that Murong Fu disguised himself as that day was Li Yanzong, a master of the Western Xia First-Class Hall, who already had a considerable foundation in the Western Xia First-Class Hall."

Moreover, the best way to escape the wrath of the Zhang family and Ghost Street is to flee to the Central Plains.

The Murong family left in a hurry, so they must have nowhere else to go.

However, what he didn't know was that with just one letter from Zhang, Murong Fu would have no foothold in Western Xia.

The Zhang family's business still has some connections with both the Jin and Western Xia dynasties!

Chapter 206 Beggars' Sect Dragon-Capturing Skill: Murong's Secret Treasure

"Young Master Zhang!"

"Brother Lu!"

After Huanshi Water Pavilion was taken over, Lu Guanying was in charge of guarding it, and he has now reached the level of a top expert.

It was only with the help of the Zhang family that the Nine Yin Manual was passed on to the Lu family; otherwise, Lu Guanying would at most be a first-rate cultivator, and would probably only ever reach the top level in his entire life.

In addition, the Zhang family also helped Huang Yaoshi find two other disciples—

Wu Mianfeng, Feng Mofeng!

"Master Qiao, the young master of Guiyun Manor is the fourth disciple of my father-in-law."

"Qiao Feng greets Young Master!"

"Lu Guanying greets Master Qiao!"

After exchanging greetings, the group entered Huanshi Water Pavilion, where they found all the martial arts manuals packed into several large boxes.

Each large box is five feet long, three feet wide, and four feet high, with a very large capacity.

"Young Master Zhang, as you instructed, three copies have been prepared, and these three boxes contain them."

This box contains antique books, suitable for collection!

When Lu Guanying heard that Zhang Xiaoshan used it for his collection, even he felt that the minds of the strong were different.

But he still prepared three copies as instructed, and he knew that Zhang Xiaoshan was giving them a chance by leaving one copy for them.

After all, Zhang Xiaoshan didn't care about these "947" martial arts at all. Even if the Lu family didn't just prepare a copy, getting some superior martial arts that were useful to them would be a great fortune.

"In that case, let's pour in what we've prepared."

"Someone, pour the water we prepared earlier into it!"

Qiao Feng watched as a dozen strong men carried wine jars inside, flooding the attic, and looked at Zhang Xiaoshan in bewilderment.

"Hehehe, Nan Murong is not just a contemporary rival of Chief Qiao, but Murong has a reputation that has lasted for hundreds of years."

Murong Fu fled in haste, managing to take with him at most some important items, such as the family genealogy, family heirlooms, and irreplaceable treasures...

But the Murong family's collection, accumulated over hundreds of years, is immense; it's far more than just what's on the surface!

"I understand!"

This place has already been given to the Zhang family by Murong Fu, so the Zhang family can do whatever they want with it.

Moreover, the methods employed by this young master Zhang only serve to highlight the Murong family's misfortune.

They thought they would have another chance to bring these out later, but little did they know that this young master Zhang was not easily fooled. Even Wang Yuyan, Azhu, and Abi, who came along, knew how rich the treasures were, even though they did not know about the Murong family's secret chamber.

"Young Master, Young Master Zhang, has it been confirmed?"

The men they brought were all skilled water bandits, so the fact that they were searching for weaknesses in the water couldn't be kept secret from them at all.

"Thank you brothers for this box of secret manuals. Please pick one from here!"

"Thank you very much, Young Master Zhang!"

The group was overjoyed, not expecting Zhang Xiaoshan to be so generous over such a simple matter.

This is far more tempting than a direct offer of a fortune.

"Go!"

Lu Guanying also knew Zhang Xiaoshan's magnanimity; he didn't take these secret techniques seriously at all.

Upon entering the attic, one finds small white flags stuck inside, which are suspicious.

Zhang Xiaoshan then took out dozens of iron beads, which immediately spilled onto the ground, making a clanging sound that puzzled everyone. Only Qiao Feng understood Zhang Xiaoshan's purpose.

"found it!"

The small white flag may seem useless, but Zhang Xiaoshan is actually no ordinary person with much experience.

The area marked by the small white flag was the focus of his listening; the difference between the large and small beads was extremely subtle, and without careful listening, the difference would be completely imperceptible.

"This should be the entrance!"

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at the stone slab in the center of the hall. Who would have thought that this was the entrance? It was quite grand.

"I've heard that the Beggars' Sect has a unique skill called the Dragon-Capturing Skill. With your skill and aptitude, Master Qiao must have already mastered it."

"Young Master Zhang has good insight."

"Indeed, I, Qiao, have mastered the Dragon-Capturing Skill. I humbly request your guidance, young master."

As he circulated his true qi, everyone saw Qiao Feng reach out and grab the stone slab on the ground. Although he did not activate any mechanism, Qiao Feng actually managed to grab the huge stone slab, which was a foot thick and weighed several thousand kilograms, from a distance.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

Suddenly, three crossbow bolts shot out from under the stone slab, causing even Qiao Feng's pupils to shrink in surprise.

But then a black shadow flashed by, striking first and breaking the three arrows in mid-air.

As the shadowy figure turned back, everyone saw that it was a folding fan in Zhang Xiaoshan's hand.

The speed just now was more than twice as fast as an arrow.

Such martial arts skills are astonishing.

Bang!

At this moment, the stone slab was moved aside, revealing a dark secret passage inside.

"Thank you very much, Young Master Zhang, for your timely rescue."

"You're too kind, Master Qiao. In the end, it was all my fault. But none of that matters. Let's go down together and broaden our horizons."

"it is good!"

Having almost been ambushed, Qiao Feng was also curious about what was below.

Upon entering the secret chamber, one sees a vast space below, with the Murong family's ancestral tablets displayed in front.

The highest rank is occupied by Murong Longcheng, the first ancestor of the Murong family. He was the first Murong family ancestor to settle in Jiangnan. Those above him can only be found in the family genealogy.
