The Cangling Zhang family dominates the continent!

"Uncle Nine, where is Ao Feng?"

Zhang Chentian strode into the Lingyun Hall and saw an energetic old man carefully wiping the items in the hall.

"Chentian is back. Aofeng said he needs to go into seclusion for a while to prepare to refine a pill." Zhang Zongmao looked up at Zhang Chentian and Xia Aoxue and said.

"Oh, so that's it..." Zhang Chentian nodded.

"By the way, this must be my future granddaughter-in-law, Princess Yonglin." Zhang Zongmao's gaze fell on Xia Aoxue, and a kind smile appeared on his face.

"Greetings, Uncle Nine." Xia Aoxue bowed to Zhang Zongmao obediently, her manners graceful and elegant, without the slightest airs of a princess.

There was a hint of shyness on her beautiful face, which made her look particularly charming.

"Haha, what a well-behaved and sensible child." Zhang Zongmao praised with a smile, "Chentian, you are so lucky to have found such a good Taoist partner. You two must get along well and support each other in the future."

"Don't worry, Uncle Jiu, we will definitely get along well." Zhang Chentian answered without hesitation. He held Xia Aoxue's hand tightly, his eyes full of determination and love.

"Okay! Okay!" Zhang Zongmao nodded with satisfaction, "I hope you can always be happy." After that, he continued to concentrate on the work in his hands and no longer disturbed the two of them.

"Uncle Nine, from now on, just let the servants do the cleaning of the items in the hall. You don't have to do it yourself."

Zhang Chentian felt inexplicably uncomfortable as he watched Zhang Zongmao wiping things, and spoke.

He felt that Uncle Jiu was old and these things should be done by the servants.

"My old bones can still move, it's just wiping something, it's nothing." Zhang Zongmao stopped what he was doing, looked at Zhang Chentian, and said with a smile: "Besides, these things symbolize the reputation of Lingyun Palace, how can I let them gather dust?"

"But..." Zhang Chentian wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Zhang Zongmao.

"Ao Feng has advised me many times, so you don't need to do that anymore. Besides, there are many secrets about Nanshui City in this hall, and I don't feel safe handing them over to others." Zhang Zongmao said seriously.

Hearing Zhang Chentian's words, Zhang Zongmao waved his hand and refused, "I know you feel sorry for me, but I think this is good. It allows me to stretch my muscles."

"Alas~" Seeing Zhang Zongmao rejecting him, Zhang Chentian knew that it would be useless even if he tried to persuade him again.

So he walked to Zhang Zongmao, picked up a rag, and helped Zhang Zongmao wipe it.

Just then, footsteps were heard from outside the hall.

Then, a guard came to Zhang Chentian and reported respectfully:

"Your Excellency, City Lord, there's a cultivator at the peak of Qi Condensation outside who wants to see you."

Hearing this news, Zhang Chentian's heart moved, a puzzled look appeared on his face, and he said to himself:

"At the peak of Qi Condensation? Looking for me? Could it be..."

He seemed to have suddenly thought of something and immediately ordered the guards, "Tell him to wait in the side hall! I'll be there shortly!"

The guard took the order and left. Zhang Chentian turned to look at Zhang Zongmao and said respectfully:

"Uncle Nine, let's go to the side hall first."

Zhang Zongmao nodded slightly and responded: "Go, go."

Afterwards, Zhang Chentian and Xia Aoxue stood up together and walked towards the side hall.

Zhang Zongmao continued to stay in the hall, wiping the items on the table.

"Mu Yirong greets the young master and the young lady!" When Mu Yirong saw the two people coming, he hurriedly bowed respectfully.

"No need to be so polite. You don't have to bow to us in the future. Just be casual."

Seeing Mu Yiran, Zhang Chentian smiled and said softly. In his heart, his previous guess was confirmed.

Although Xia Aoxue didn't know Mu Yirong's identity, she still nodded politely in response.

However, she didn't say much, but just stood quietly beside Zhang Chentian.

Zhang Chentian sat down on the main seat, his eyes fell on Mu Yirong, and asked with a smile: "How is the construction of Haoyue Palace going? Are there enough resources?" He cared very much about the development of Haoyue Palace and hoped to get a satisfactory answer.

"Haoyue Palace has been built on a small island about two hundred kilometers east of Nanshui City." Mu Yirong described it excitedly, his eyes revealing his pride and joy for the palace.

“Currently, we have a total of twenty-six disciples, and the least talented one has a mid-grade yellow-level martial bone.

Among them are two geniuses with Xuan-level talents or above, both under the age of thirty. They have unlimited potential and are loyal to Haoyue Palace." Mu Yirong's voice was filled with pride.

However, a trace of worry also appeared on his face:

"However, since we are just starting out, the resources in the palace are indeed limited, which is also a challenge we face."

After saying this, Mu Yirong respectfully took out a small booklet from his storage ring and handed it to Zhang Chentian with both hands, saying, "This is the development of Haoyue Palace this year. Please take a look, young master."

Zhang Chentian took the booklet, then used his powerful mental power to scan it, and the contents of the booklet instantly appeared in his mind.

He read every piece of information carefully and gained a deeper understanding of the development of Haoyue Palace.

After a moment, Zhang Chentian closed the booklet and looked at Mu Yirong who was sitting beside him with a smile, his eyes flashing with admiration:

"You have done an excellent job. I am very satisfied. It seems that choosing you to establish Haoyue Palace was a correct decision."

"I'm glad that you are satisfied, sir! It's just that it's not easy to find disciples here." Seeing Zhang Chentian satisfied, Mu Yirong said happily, and at the same time a stone in his heart fell down.

"This is 10,000 mid-grade spirit stones, which should be enough for Haoyue Palace to develop for a period of time. As for recruiting disciples, there is no need to rush.

"Remember the four words 'better to have nothing than to have something bad'. You must ensure the loyalty of the Haoyue Palace. If you discover anyone plotting something illicit, kill them without considering the consequences," Zhang Chentian said in a deep voice, handing Mu Yirong a storage bag.

Hearing this, Mu Yiran's heart trembled, and he immediately said: "Yes! Sir!"

"Well, you go back first. After I finish things here, I will go to Haoyue Island to take a look." Zhang Chentian said.

"Yes! Son!"

Seeing Mu Yirong leave, Xia Aoxue looked at Zhang Chentian and asked, "Brother Tian, ​​are you planning to establish a power?"

"I do have such plans." Zhang Chentian nodded slightly, his eyes firmly looking into the distance, as if looking forward to the future. "The world is in chaos now, and the major forces are constantly fighting. Establishing a force will only benefit me, not harm me."

A hint of surprise flashed across Xia Aoxue's eyes, and then she showed admiration.

"However, this is not an easy task." Zhang Chentian changed the subject and said.

"I believe Brother Tian will succeed." Xia Aoxue said with a smile.
