My whole clan is a master, I have become invincible by investing in my clan members

Ding Xuan no longer hesitated and said, "Master Mansion Lord is truly kindhearted. The position of Lord of Green Vine City usually requires one to be at the Star Wheel Realm, but he made an exception for a mere Purple Mansion. This immense kindness makes me deeply humbled. It is like a second parent to me, and I will never be able to repay it in this lifetime..."

Hearing the praise, Zhao Hu raised his head and nodded.

But at this moment, Ding Xuan suddenly changed the subject: "It's just that this Green Vine City is, after all, a major city in Tiandu Prefecture. I, Ding, have a shallow cultivation base and know that I am not capable enough. I'd better not go and embarrass myself, so as not to embarrass the Palace Master."

Zhao Hu's face froze.

He opened his eyes wide and looked at Ding Xuan in disbelief.

He never expected that Ding Xuan, whose cultivation level was only at the Purple Mansion Realm, would have such courage and dare to reject the temptation of the Lord of Green Vine City!

How can this be? !

Zhao Hu had never expected this situation.

For a moment, he didn't know what to do.

At this time, Ding Xuan raised his head slightly and kept observing Zhao Hu out of the corner of his eye.

Seeing the other person's expression constantly changing, I became more certain that there was something fishy!

Thinking of this, Ding Xuan felt a chill in his heart.

I never thought that after serving the Lord for so many years, I would end up with such a result.

Then, he was afraid that the commander in front of him would not be able to hold back and slap him to death.

He quickly knelt on the ground, his forehead hitting the cold floor tiles.

With a voice slightly tinged with sobs, he spoke sincerely, "The position of Lord of Green Vine City is too important. I am only at the Purple Mansion Realm. If I were to take on the position, I would probably be inferior to the generals in the city. It would be difficult to convince the people, and it would only make them resent the Lord of the Mansion and accuse him of being unfair."

"I'm worried about failing to live up to the Lord's kindness. If I really bring shame upon the Lord, I...I'll be damned!"

"Therefore, in order to maintain the Lord's image, please tell him to leave this important position to someone who is truly suitable for it. In my opinion, the Lord Commander is wise and powerful, far superior to Ding, and is undoubtedly more suitable for this position..."

Accompanied by Ding Xuan's sincere words.

It can be said that every word touched Zhao Hu's heart.

His expression instantly eased a lot.

He thought to himself that the position of Green Vine City Lord would belong to him sooner or later anyway, so he might as well take the position sooner rather than later.

As for Ding Xuan, just leave it to the Lord of the Mansion to deal with. It has nothing to do with me.

Of course, the most important thing is that he kept the instructions of the Lord of the Mansion in mind.

We must not offend the Cangwu Jiang family at this critical moment.

After all, the White-Robed Sword Marquis and Ding Xuan are "close friends". If he were to take action now, it would be difficult to explain.

Thinking of this, Zhao Hu no longer intended to embarrass Ding Xuan. He snorted coldly, "Hmph, you've really wasted the opportunity bestowed upon you by the Lord of the Mansion. You're so short-sighted and don't know how to appreciate it!"

Hearing the sarcastic voice, Ding Xuan was not annoyed at all, but felt relieved instead.

Because this undoubtedly means that you are safe.

Afterwards, Zhao Hu no longer had the heart to be polite with Ding Xuan.

He was just about to leave and go to Cangwu Mountain to visit the White-Robed Sword Marquis.

But suddenly my thoughts changed.

I thought that before visiting, in order to be on the safe side, I should first sort out the situation of the Jiang family.

So he looked at Ding Xuan and ordered, "I want to visit the Jiang family later. Please take me to the document library first."

Ding Xuan nodded quickly: "I'll take you there right away."

He had already tampered with the documents, so he was naturally not worried about any problems.

Seeing Ding Xuan agreed so decisively, Zhao Hu did not become suspicious.

Then he followed Ding Xuan to the document library.

As soon as I entered.

Zhao Hu looked at the piles of documents piled up like mountains, so dense that the surface was covered with a layer of dust. He frowned and asked coldly, "Where are the documents about the Jiang family?"

Hearing this, Ding Xuan hurried to a bookshelf, took out a pile of documents that were covered in "dust" and "old" in material, and held them in his hands.

Then he quickly walked up to Zhao Hu and handed him the documents with both hands.

"Replying to the commander, these are all the documents and records of the Jiang family since they arrived in Wudan City..."

Zhao Hu nodded, picked up the recent document records and read them carefully.

After reading it, I found that the records inside were no different from the news reported by the messenger.

Zhao Hu put away the document in his hand and couldn't help but sigh, "This White-Robed Sword Marquis is truly cunning. He didn't show off after breaking through the Purple Palace. Even after breaking through the Star Wheel, he didn't want to be known, hiding in the dark until he broke through the Moon Wheel. Only then did he make a big splash by destroying the Tang family, causing a sensation throughout our entire Tiandu Prefecture..."

"However, the Tiandu Tang family is also unlucky. Just because of a branch family founded by an evil offspring, they encountered such a purge by the White-Robed Sword Marquis. However, if it weren't for them, given the White-Robed Sword Marquis's personality, I'm afraid he wouldn't have been exposed so early..."

The documents clearly record the major events that took place during these years.

This includes the relationship between the destruction of the Wudan Tang family and the destruction of the Tiandu Tang family.

Listening to Zhao Hu's sigh, Ding Xuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he asked tentatively, "I wonder what arrangements the Palace Master has for Jiang Daoxuan?"

Zhao Hu glanced at him and said coldly, "Why do you need to know so much? You just need to understand and do your job well."

Upon hearing this, Ding Xuan immediately shut up.

Judging from Zhao Hu's words and actions, his impatient reaction, and the appointment order from the Lord of the Mansion just now.

He knew very well in his heart that it was because he flattered the Jiang clan leader that he concealed the matter and the messenger informed the palace lord Sima Nan, thus offending the other party.

However, he didn't care about it.

After all, he had already made up his mind and was determined to cling to Chief Jiang’s thighs even at death.

Apart from that, he didn't worry much about his own safety.

After all, if the Palace Master really wanted to target the Jiang family, he would definitely not just send a Star Wheel Realm commander to die.

In this case, it seems that the most likely solution is to seek peace.

Therefore, until the relationship between the two parties breaks down, you are absolutely safe!

However, the premise is that you don't leave Wudan City. If you go to other places, it's hard to say...

In an instant, Ding Xuan's brain worked rapidly, and he guessed the truth almost exactly in an instant.

At this time, Zhao Hu began to quickly look through the development of the Jiang family in previous years.

For cultivators in the Star Wheel Realm, photographic memory is just the most basic operation.

I turned to the end in a short while.

Zhao Hu held the last document in his hand and suddenly exclaimed, "Jiang family ancestor, Jiang Zheqian? A cultivator at the Moon Wheel Realm? When did our Tiandu Prefecture ever have such a cultivator?"

Every Moon Wheel cultivator can be regarded as a first-class combat force in Tiandu Prefecture.

Every time one is born, it will be recorded in the annals of Tiandu Prefecture.

That's why he felt extremely confused.

After all, I have never heard of this person before.

Ding Xuan's expression remained unchanged, surprisingly calm. "Your Excellency, you may not know that Jiang Zhegan died of illness not long after settling in Wudan City. Because they suspected he was from another prefecture, they didn't inform the higher-ups. Please check the back..."

Zhao Hu looked suspicious and began to flip through the book.

Turning to the back, it was indeed recorded that Jiang Zhegan had unfortunately died just a few days after arriving in Wudan City.

After leaving behind the inheritance, his younger brother "Jiang Zheren" married a woman in the city and founded the Jiang family.

Later, the Jiang family declined, and the Tang family, wanting to seize the opportunity, took the Jiang family as a subsidiary family.

It was not until Jiang Hongxuan was born and broke through the Purple Mansion that the Jiang family was able to break free from being a vassal, but he suddenly died not long after.

After reading the history of the Jiang family, Zhao Hu couldn't help but sigh. "This Jiang family is quite strange. Why do all the powerful people have such short lives? Could it be that they were accumulating luck, and only then did they produce a cultivation prodigy like the White-Robed Sword Marquis?"

Ding Xuan immediately agreed: "That must be the case."

Zhao Hu smiled noncommittally.

He ignored the small character like Ding Xuan and immediately walked out of the library.

Without stopping at all, it flew into the sky in an instant and began to head towards Cangwu Mountain!

Wait until Zhao Hu's figure completely disappeared into the sky.

Ding Xuan, who was standing at the door of the document library, suddenly felt his legs go weak and he collapsed to the ground.

He stretched out his right hand tremblingly and wiped the sweat from his head with his sleeve.

"Chief Jiang, I've literally been on the brink of death in order to resolve a potential problem for you."

Ding Xuan was very nervous.

If Zhao Hu had noticed anything unusual just now, I would have been crippled if not dead.

But fortunately, my preparations were perfect and I couldn't find any flaws!
