This immortal has a lot of rebelliousness

"Sir, are you serious?"

He glanced at the guards behind Zhang Xianling.

The shopkeeper was a little unsure and reminded: "One per person, this is not a small expense..."

Sighed softly.

Without saying a word, Zhang Xianling took out a large number of spirit stones from the sword-storing gourd and threw them all on the ground.

All of a sudden.

The emerald green light bloomed wildly on the spot, filling up most of the store in an instant.

"how?"

He raised his eyebrows.

Zhang Xianling raised his chin and asked, "Are these spirit stones enough?"

“Enough, enough…”

Nodding like pounding garlic.

Everyone who was strolling around the store, including the shop owner, was shocked by this scene.

It's not like they haven't seen people who spend money lavishly, but this is the first time they've met someone as arrogant and completely unscrupulous as Zhang Xianling.

"But sir, for such a large order, our store is short on stock. I'm afraid it will take a few days to rush it..."

The shopkeeper nodded and bowed, fearing he would lose the deal. He bowed with both hands and said, "How about you leave your address, sir? I'll send someone to deliver the goods to your house in a few days?"

There was no hesitation.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Zhang Xianling threw a small token to the other party and said in a deep voice, "Send the things to Lingyun Peak in three days. No mistakes!"

As soon as these words came out.

Everyone was shocked.

The stunned shopkeeper took the token and looked at it for a long time before confirming the identities of Zhang Xianling and others. He then bowed respectfully.

After Zhang Xianling and his group left, the customers who were watching the fun in the shop immediately started talking about it.

Everyone was whispering to each other.

No wonder they were so generous. After all the fuss, it turned out that they were people from the Nangong family's spiritual stone mining area.

How much of Haoqi City's benefits and resources have these shameless lackeys embezzled? Otherwise, how could they possibly live such a luxurious life...

The evil of human nature was fully demonstrated at this moment.

There is no need for anyone to organize it at all.

In an instant——

Negative rumors about Zhang Xianling immediately spread all over the city.

The four ways to speak.

Various exaggerated versions are even more arrogant and outrageous than what Zhang Xianling showed.

"What a courageous dog!"

Almost at the same moment.

In the Nangong family's mansion in Haoqi City, Nangong Wu, who was handling official business, also received the news from the spies and was immediately struck by lightning.

"No wonder the number of spirit stones handed over this time is so much less than the quota. It turns out that all of them were embezzled by Zhang Xianling and his men!"

His brows were furrowed.

Nangong Wu was furious, especially when he thought about others squandering the resources belonging to their Nangong family on the streets, he couldn't help but want to draw his knife and kill people.

"Someone come here..." Nangong Wu pondered.

"exist!"

With the shouting.

Immediately, a team of armored warriors strode forward to respond to the order. They were all the private army of the Nangong family. Not only were they highly skilled in martial arts, but they were also all brave and good at fighting.

"Send someone to the post station in Haoqi City..."

He slammed the table.

Nangong Wu's eyes were gloomy, and he immediately ordered, "Capture Zhang Xianling and his accomplices right here and put them in jail to await their fate!"

"Wait a minute!"

The armored warrior was about to accept the order.

However, he was forcibly stopped by Taoist Zheng who was wearing a Yin-Yang Taoist robe.

"Master, calm down. We need to think about this matter carefully. Don't be impulsive."

Hear the words.

Nangong Wu closed his eyes and let out a long sigh, but he took Taoist Zheng's words very seriously.

He waved his hand.

Taoist Zheng took the initiative to dismiss the armored warriors on standby.

No matter what.

These soldiers didn't listen to him at all. Instead, they all looked at Nangong Wu who was sulking in the main seat.

"Ugh......"

His broad shoulders slumped.

Nangong Wu shook his head helplessly, and after calming down, he sighed softly: "You guys go down first..."

The leading warrior bowed and then hurriedly left the room with his subordinates.

Wait until everyone leaves.

Nangong Wu then looked at Taoist Zheng who was standing beside him, frowned, and asked, "Master, why are you stopping me?"

There was a pause.

Before Taoist Zheng could speak, Nangong Wu was once again filled with indignation, saying viciously, "Such a bastard deserves death. I don't know what the Third Brother is thinking. He actually replaced Feng Zhengqi with this guy named Zhang. It's ridiculous!"

He shook his head silently.

Taoist Zheng looked helpless and could only look at the angry Nangong Wu with a wry smile.

As the eldest son.

Nangong Wu's cultivation is the strongest among the princes. He has also represented the Nangong family in battles and participated in the war with the Northern Wilderness Demon Clan.

But in terms of talent and sophistication, he is far inferior to other princes, and can even be described as reckless.

"Young Master, please think about this carefully..."

He stroked his beard.

Taoist Zheng said slowly and thoughtfully, "If you were in Zhang Xianling's position, the amount of spirit stones you would have surrendered would have been much less. Would you still be so arrogant and presumptuous, spending money like water in public?"

Lift your chin.

Nangong Wu thought for a moment, raised his eyebrows and asked doubtfully, "Are you saying that there might be something else going on?"

"When something is out of the ordinary, there must be something fishy going on." Although it's still unclear who's behind this, there's no doubt this is a carefully planned trap, waiting for someone to fall into it..."

Nodding silently.

Taoist Zheng stroked his beard and said confidently, "Although we still don't know who is behind this, there is no doubt that this is a carefully planned trap. Perhaps the other party is just waiting for others to fall into it..."

Hear the words.

Nangong Wu immediately felt that it made sense and couldn't help but feel a little scared.

In fact, it is——

Even if Zhang Xianling really embezzled the spirit stones, he would not be so stupid as to choose this time to show off in public. It is obvious that he is deliberately exposing his flaws.

"How can this be..."

There was a fierce look in his eyes.

Nangong Wu said in a deep voice: "Could it be that Zhang Xianling is actually Lao Er's man? Only that sinister guy would come up with such conspiracies and tricks!"

shook his head.

Zheng Daoist was silent for a moment, then hesitated, saying, "It's hard to say. Eldest Young Master, you must know that your competition isn't limited to the Second Young Master. Even the weakest Third Young Master is no ordinary person."

Looking at the clear sky outside the room.

Taoist Zheng patiently advised, "The current situation in Haoqi City is like the weather outside. On the surface, it seems sunny and bright, but in reality, there are undercurrents. If you are not careful, you will fall into the trap set by others. You must be on guard..."

As soon as these words came out.

Nangong Wu just felt a terrible headache.

Having led troops in foreign battles for a long time, he is not good at overt and covert political struggles, and prefers a bold and aggressive style of play.

Whoever refuses to obey will be beaten into submission...

Nangong Wu naturally has his own set of principles and strategies for dealing with things.

But he also understands.

The battle for the succession of the Nangong family cannot be compared to a battlefield. This is definitely a weapon that kills without bloodshed. With his limited brain cells to deal with it, he will probably die miserably.

"Master Zheng, how should we deal with this?"

Put your hands on the table.

Nangong Wu looked helpless and smiled bitterly, "After all, I now control most of the Nangong family's military power. The tax issue directly affects the salaries and benefits of my men. It's already a big deal out there. If I don't do anything about it, I'm afraid it will cause criticism from others!"
